However if she hit him with a golf club, that IS an assault,

I doubt very much if she did

Your right. Tiger has been the guy now best known for getting away with it. Well, it caught up to him. It is all going to be paid back with interest. And, if the tide turns far enough against him, the folks coming after him will be well known and in high numbers. Tiger in the last few years had become incredibly cocky, and now it is clear why he was so arrogant. He didn’t think he could ever be brought down.

The PED's are the REAL story here. Like I've been saying I would bet everything I own if there was a magic truth serum for Tiger on this subject. Hopefully it comes out now, if not now we'll have to maybe wait years for the real story about Tiger's AMAZING body transformation which was NOT gradual.

Tiger had pencils for forearms even after spending his whole life playing golf, all of a sudden he turns into a NFL strong safety.

Oh man thanks. What are PEDs? What is this blood spinning? I know aging rock stars like Jagger or Richards would get their blood cleansed or some hoorible thing with calve blood or some poor like lamb or something.

I get it on the forearms. I have worked hard, I am not a great golfer - no time - 90s and can shoot par on a lot of holes. Building up my forearms is hard.

What is the deal with Phil. I think he is a bigger guy, bulks up and almost gets fat then power lifts. He has pretty big biceps. Wow. My arms are bigger than young Barry Bonds. He never would have made it in the majors.

When Tiger was stick man, I thought he could drive it about 280. He was very good as stick man and probably got the drives due to good temp and the right shaft etc. The roids would take it to the next level and improve stamina.

The two best English speaking newspapers besides U.S. Investors Business Daily (owned by a conservative) is the UK Telegraph and Daily Mail owned by the Barclay brothers who are in their 70s. Self made Scottish Catholics from England. I think their poor parents had 8 to 10 children.

Maybe one of a few media people who are probably not NWO.

They live in a castle on Sark in the Channel Islands between France and England.

PED’s are Performance Enhancing Drugs. Don’t know much about “blood spinning”, just read the stuff in the article. All of these athletes use the best drugs to the maximum effect for their individual sport. Tiger being the most obvious of the PGA guys using. Phil is a very big man in person, he looked pretty solid physically at Bethpage this year. Bonds, like Tiger was a superstar before the drugs, the drugs just took them both to another level.

Tiger like many other guys could bomb it before the drugs, he was hitting it well over 300 before drugs. Tiger didn’t need the PED’s, but he’s not above cheating, as is evident now, and I doubt he’s the only one cheating. He is though, the only guy who’s going to break Nicklaus’ records. Yes, building up forearms is not easy, it’s much easier when you’re using drugs, look at Tiger and Bonds. Look how they both fundamentally changed their bodies. It’s proven that Bonds took drugs, Tiger, we’re still waiting. Personally, I have no doubt.

As far as I know they were trying to break up the semi-feudal system on the island.

Phil was a big kid when he played at the British Open when he was 17?? I think he bulks up and lifts weights. No way Tiger built those arms naturally.

These young guys who are pretty lean like Nick Watney, Sean O’Hair, Rory, and Charles Howell III are not big but they can bomb it.

I was shocked that Rory is 5’9”. Camillo is probably 5’7” and Tad Fujikama is about 5’0”. Camillo is an example of insane endless weight lifing can do. Wiry but nothing like Tiger. He supposedly lived in the UF weight room.

Good article on Tiger’s possible steroid use. Taki’s magazine was that Greek conservative guy who is friends with I think Pat Buchannan.

WILL THIS NIGHTMARE EVER END?

Not the Obama Nightmare, the Tiger Nightmare.

I sure hope the first Gal he did that looks like a Tranny doesn't actually turn out to be a Tranny.

Even Tiger couldn't survive that revelation.

Good article, I read the referenced article he talked about too that raised a few flags. Most all writers don’t know much about these drugs and/or refuse to write about them. I knew Sosa and McGwire and others were juicing and said so all the time, more and more people are listening now. The problem is that obvious steroid bodies are now viewed as “normal” or the result of “hard work” and “modern training”

It’s well know that many, many guys on tour are and have been weight training for a long time, no one looks like Tiger though. We’re supposed to believe that Tiger works that much harder than everyone else, what a joke.

There’s plenty of guys working their asses off, there’s plenty of guys sleeping in their cars trying to make a living on mini tours. There’s plenty of guys in Florida lifting weights and playing and practicing every day, all day, a bunch of them live in and around PGA village in Port St. Lucie where my friends live and where I go during winters.

I would get sick to my stomach listening to these sports TV talking heads calling Bonds the best player ever, I get just as sick hearing Tiger being called the best player ever. Tiger might have been just as good without the drugs, but we’ll never know and it’s not fair to Nicklaus. Bonds was a great player, but no one EVER mentioned him with the all time greats until he got on drugs.

Demands nothing from anyone? Appearence fees which are illegal but he found away around that. Paid as an amateur by Nike and others which is also illegal but they paid dad.

Have you ever paid him anything? I haven't. You talk about a couple of VOLUNTARY arrangements that you say are "illegal." These days it's really "illegal" for me to smoke a cigar most places. I guess I'm more worried about the folks who are making things really illegal.

The club throwing, the swearing, ignoring kids looking for autgraphs. Any other player on the tour pulled that crap ...

Ooooh. Did Tiger say a bad word? I'm shocked. Shocked! I've seen him autograph stuff, and I've seen him "ignore kids" sometimes at the US Open practice rounds I've been to. I saw one famous player who likes to be associated with a marine animal be particularly rude to those following him one practice round. I doubt anyone fined him. These guys are human; and now we see too human sometimes.

If you don't like Tiger, and he is able to come back from the drubbing he has and will be taking, then you can just ignore him or even root for him to take a lot of bogeys. I'm still in the camp that hopes he can recover from this.

Agreed. I puke whaen I see guys like Mickey, Roger MAris, Ted Williams and other who did not use steroids and their records go by the wayside to cheats like Bonds.

I know guys are starving on the mini tours,, lifing weight, doing it the honest way while he appears to be the only one roided up. Like you said - no one looks like that.

Yeah some many on the street, gym rat and cop juicers that people think this is what hard working guys who go to the gym look like.

Or Tiger versus Jack, Hogan, Bobby Jones, etc. I sure hope Arnie and Jack avoid any PGA inspired Tiger image rehab.

Are you suggesting that his golf achievements are attributable to steroid use?

Tiger started a rigorous weightlifting regime some years ago. It's very easy to add muscle to your arms and physique without any use of PED’s.

Also, it is only natural to add weight as you get older. He's in his 30’s, which is his prime as a golfer. To imply that because he has added muscle mass with the use of PED’s is reaching. Most athletes are bigger when older.

Holyfield, Jordan, etc.

Tiger didn’t start lifting until 2001 when he was 25. There’s MILLIONS of other guys in America Tiger’s age who started lifting years before Tiger and also filled out and who also had bigger and better frames to add muscle to that never came close to adding the mass that Tiger has.

Unless you believe the myth that Tiger is the hardest working human in the world, so pure, so focused, so dedicated to his body and golf that all he has time for is training and his devotion to being the best golfer, husband and father the world has ever seen.

Evander Holyfield?!?!? You’re kidding right?

The guys whole career is a testament do drugs, he might have not have ever been able to fight as a heavyweight without them. If you remember, many questioned his decision to fight as a heavyweight, he was a pumped up light heavyweight, then cruiserweight, then heavyweight. If you look at Evander Holyfield and think his body is natural........

Citing Evander Holyfield as evidence? You might as well use Bonds, Sosa, McGwire and Giambi as “evidence” too that they “filled out” and had a “rigorous weightlifting regime”
