I bet he's going to get his balls deep into some fairway and sink them in a few holes.

The only winning move is not to play.

I don't understand why the hell everyone is making a huge deal about his personal affairs... he's a golfer. He's good at golf. Who cares about his personal life?

That is like saying Gene Simmons admitted to being with lots of women and then everybody is surprised that Kiss does a concert. After all, playing golf is Tiger's "job". I guess anybody who has done anything wrong should stop going to work. Personally, I don't care what Tiger Woods does.

much as i dislike gene,i don't recall him cultivating some squeaky clean family guy image to sell us stuff.....wood's game caters to a country club crowd that frowns on that sort of behavior,at least in public,while gene's crowd are t shirted teens,or people nostalgic for their teens.....gene is at least up front about who he is and what he's done

i personally don't care about wood's sex life either.his behavior when the scandal broke seems to indicate that the real woods is a completely dishonest individual,willing to risk the well being of his family to satisfy his giant ego,as he tries to shrug it all off as some form of addiction....but only after he got caught

maybe some good will come of it though.....it seems that pro athletes are outed a lot more for their bad behavior these days,and with that it seems possible that folks will be less likely to bestow so many accolades on guys like the michael vicks,hulk hogans, maguires, for simply being good with a football,baseball,etc .....

how many corked bat,steroid using,cheap shot,spouse abusing,egomaniac sports heroes that will take,i don't know,but shining a light on them is a good start

When will people learn that celebrity's are the anti-thesis of role models? Ive known this since I was a child, but its starting to seem like people are catching on.
