Nike has the most difficult call to make, because so much of their product line is inextricably linked to his name and image. Many of the rest will make the easy decision to back out quietly. If you want a laugh see: http://sports.espn.go.com/golf/news/story?id=4713202 I disagreed with it the moment I saw it on 12/4, and intervening events have made its author look foolish. But then, ESPN and the sports media world are carrying a lot of water for Tiger.

Heh...liked their headline “Woods in no danger of losing Sponsors”... Do they take the people out in middle America for goofballs? Yes, I not only think that they do, but they actually plan on it (Goofballs they are, but hey, it’s only advertising)...

Yes...they will try to bring back his brand, but it will not resonate with middle America...what to do, well just swamp the TV channels with his image maybe...hehe... All this will do is ingrain in the minds of those that actually know about his past or make those that do not know wonder (and the internet is a wonderful resource)...
