From the story...

"“It’s selfish,” said Ernie Els, mincing no words. “You can write that. I feel sorry for the sponsor. Mondays are a good day to make statements, not Friday. This takes a lot away from the golf tournament.”

Ernie telling it like it is. Clearly, Tiger's his same old self.

Calculated. All of it. Trying to get the apology out so the Woods’ buzz can get off the ground and get him back on the tournament.

Since Tiger wins about half of the tournies he enters, his opponents are all too happy to have him sit aside or be well distracted.

Wow, that’s savy business sense. Hire me as your spokesperson and I’ll stick it to you as soon as the relationship runs it’s course.

What an excellent plan to pick up new sponsors. He should fire his agent/manager.

Tiger Woods is a good golfer, but he is also just about as sleazy a husband and father as I have ever seen exposed. His wife might have forgiven a one woman affair, but 14, including knocking up a porn star twice. What a family man.

Tiger explains: “It was the bushes fault.”

I just hope that ReHab didn’t mess up his golf game. I could care less what he does in his spare time. I watch him because he’s the best golfer ever. Its not like he’s working out the school cirriculae or something, now that would cause me to get upset! (careful ... /s).

Hey Woods, you’ve already PROVED the fact that you’re a bum! So make your announcement some other time!

Ernie’s not looking at it from the right perspective. For Tiger Friday is a great day to have his announcement because most people don’t follow news stories (even gossipy ones) through the weekend, so the story will die. If he has his announcement on Monday it’ll be the talk of sports news all week.

Ok, i personally feel that Americans are quicker to forgive a Celeb for almost anything.Before they would a family member,who may have committed the same offense. Well you can count me as as one of those who say, “ Just go into rehab and they will forgive you anything “ type folks. I’m no longer that forgiving. These Celebs have the money & power to do anything their little hearts desire. And they do. So let him eat cake.

The timing of this public statement in a setting that he controls further makes the case that Tiger Woods is a sociopath.

Woods must have been soaking up the lions-share of the endorsement dollars on the PGA. With his personal life on the skids those dollars may move to other golfers. You hafta figure Els & others may be rooting against Woods just a little.

The people that worship woods’ butt are probably card carrying viewers of Am Idol. Golf should have the same crowds and tennis or hockey. Let em yell. And woods would be gone.

Listened to a few minutes of it and turned it off. He pulled a Bill Clinton saying his affairs and whether he will remained married are between him and his wife. And the media should let them be.

Hey Tiger, I've got news for you. If you had kept it in your pants, none of this would be happening! YOU brought this on to your family. Not the media.

He's even more of an ass now.
