Tiger Woods: I have sinned against you. I'm sorry.

Cry me a river.

It's too little, too late, pal. That ship has sailed.

How the mighty have fallen.

I read that next time he sticks his salami into another bun, he will be extremely careful.

Elin deserves praise, not blame.

How big of him to absolve Elin of any blame... I don't think too many people are blaming her for his affairs.

I also don't blame the tournament golfers who are, in my opinion, justifiably angry that coverage of a major tournament has been hijacked by Tiger's need to make this statement today. He couldn't have waited? He couldn't have chosen another forum? Seems to me like he still wanted attention from the golf world.

I find it interesting that he claims to be a born-again-Buddhist. That's a first; must be fall out from the Bret Hume call to repentance.

As an apology/PR rebuilding, I'd give this a B+. Certainly better than Clinton's numerous non-apologies.

I'll give him some credit: I expected the statement to say "I'm cured - I'll be playing in the Master's in 7 weeks." Most of these ne'er-do-wells don't bother to finish the therapy and declare themselves healed. Sounds like he recognizes that there's a problem.

And hey -- it's certainly cost him big time. Kobe (for instance) got off easy.

No mention of GOD. That’s his MAIN problem.

Brit Hume was right!

I know you can’t separate his private and public life completely, but to me, his private life is his own. He screwed up big time. On the other hand, I love watching this guy play and will always admire what he can do with a golf ball. I love the game, too, and hope he returns to it as soon as possible.

Yeah, he’s so sorry that he cheated on his wife that he kept doing it with multiple women over many years....

“I had sex with those 7 to 10 women and lost ALOT of money when I caught...for that I’m really sorry...otherwise...who’s business was it what I did”?

Good job Maestro. Judge the way he handles temptation.

That’s like me vowing to never throw an interception in the Super Bowl. I vow to never put someone into the wall at Daytona. I promise to never sign a federal budget that is not balanced.

Wow! I’m a pretty awesome guy!

A rather bizarre venue. Aside from his mom, I think they should have had captions of everyone in the room, and exactly how their income (or entree to a billionaire lifestyle) depends on Tiger.

Shorten it from 13 minutes, or whatever it was: “Sorry I got caught, and I’ll bet you are, too!”

He has already been known as a person who is angry and had problems, not exactly a good role model though many idiot parents thought he was.

Now they know better.

I think all of this coverage is beyond ridiculous.
Really??? A press conference to answer for his cheating???
I could see if it were dealing with his future in golf,but...about his personal life??
Speculation about whether or not his wife will show up; whether or not his mom will speak;whether or not he'll burst into tears....good grief! Enough already!
There's been more coverage and concern about a philandering sports figure than about the five Muslim soldiers who tried to kill as many American soldiers as possible with poison!
I for one an fed up with it all. Sorry about the rant but it's very annoying. The man's a piece of crap who can't keep his zipper up.Let his wife deal with it. After all,he cheated on her, not on us.

Last time I checked, the only person without earthly sin died on a cross. Who reading this hasn’t sinned today?

Worked hard all his life? He played golf, for crying out loud. The rest of us should “work” so hard.....

I’ll bet the whole time he was saying this he was dreaming about boinking another blonde bimbo.

What will get the most press coverage tonight on the News?

Tiger Woods or yesterday’s Domestics Terrorist attack under Obamas watch? And what story will come first? I think you all know the answer to both.

Yea Tiger, you’re sorry, as much as a sleaze-ball tightwad could be. A class guy would have bought that young coffee shop waitress a bungalow or a flat, show the girl a bit of respect, but not Tiger Woods. And he’s so rich! It’s a drop in the bucket for him.
