Ok, I am officially gagged! I want to puke!
He Said: “It's not what you achieve that counts, but what you overcome”
Any man that stands up an apologizes has my respect
He would have more of my respect if he had walked out with a dozen hookers and said, “ guess what I am doing this afternoon...” Then walked off the stage...
A real man would not have put himself in a position to have to apologize nationally for his behavior.
Any fool can make a mistake
But very few will admit it and even less apologize.
You’re a bit harsh.
Tiger just did what Clinton should have done.
Tiger has made a thorough and sincere apology, he deserves a bit of respect for that. I certainly admire what he just did, and I await seeing the change in him as the years go forward.
I’m not agreeing with him, but a real man is flawed and makes mistakes. Except for Jesus in which case he is a bit different as he’s also god.
Just saw the whole thing.
I thing he did an excellent job and the world can move on.
Exactly, did anyone really care that Wilt Chamberlain slept with all those women? No, because he never tried to pretend that he was something he wasn’t.
Damn, that was a terrible, robotic performance. He should fire the PR people he hired (assuming he followed their instructions). It was like the paper he was using said:
“To my friends, family, and fans..[count to 3, choke up, look down, count to 2, deep breath] I am SO sorry” and later on it read “Thank you [camera pans to Mom, Mom stands up, hug her for 30 seconds, go down the row, handshake, hug, exit stage right while putting hand on your head]
“But Jesus stooped down, and with His finger wrote on the ground, as though He heard them not. So when they continued asking Him, He lifted up Himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. And again He stooped down, and wrote on the ground.” John 8:7
They actually have a helicopter following Tiger’s motorcade...All of this over Tiger humping hookers....Does any one else get it??/
Locking your keys in the car is a mistake.
Shagging a bunch of women while you have a wife at home is called WILLFUL SIN.
This is going to be funny but, Please answer how Tiger's actions have affected your life?
There was something Clintonesque about his faked anger part. I was believing most of his apology until that point.
WEEI’s Dennis and Callahan Show predicted that in the fashion of Flash Boy Jon Meterparel that he would “Pause, sigh and lie”.
Please note that my last comment means I really care what he did. He’s a great golfer and that’s why I watch him, not because he’s a saint. I could care less what he does in his personal life, because that’s between him and his wife and family. I was just commenting on how bad I thought he did in the speech.
Once is a mistake. 14 women is no mistake. Woods is a fool and his apology is empty. He's only sorry he got caught.
There is no sin that is too big for forgiveness. God is mercy! God knows if he is truly sorry!
