Tiger Woods

[Capernicus]

So he's apparently been a very busy man. I don't know why anyone is so surprised that an athlete is cheating on his wife, but I'm pretty shocked to hear that the mistress count today reached a total of 11. Two of these are porn stars by the way. If you're not in the know (dunno how you wouldn't be though), speculation started on November 27th after Woods crashed his car into a tree around 2 am. Reports were that Woods had been drinking and his wife used a golf club to break open the back window and free him from the car. However, now it is believed that his wife was somehow attacking him with the club rather than saving him.

Hey, it's Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favor. Can you please, uh, take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. If you can, please take your name off that and, um, what do you call it, just have it as a number on the voicemail. Just have it as your telephone number. You have to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye.

I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect.

So, what do you think? Has he cheated? Is it our business? How will this blemish on his otherwise perfect image effect him?

Look at the motives for why these women would 'admit' to having relations with the guy. The article even says many of these women were paid for 'admitting' to it. My BS meter is flickering to life.

-Sigh- Call me a stiff if you will, but I honestly don't see what's so interesting about this. He may be a famous athlete and extremely talented golf player, but he's still just another man; subject to the weaknesses of the flesh and power.

Is it our business, you ask? I dunno. Mayhaps I'll tune in a listening ear if the man decides to stick his neck out on Oprah and give a proper explanation for himself.

Yes, but how many men accumulate 11 mistresses? That's quite impressive in a bad way.

Yes, but how many men accumulate 11 mistresses? That's quite impressive in a bad way.

Anybody reasonably famous, wealthy and good looking would hardly have any trouble doing that. Plenty of gold diggers to go round.

Beyond that, I agree with Shinn Kamiyra in that I'm not really concerned with the goings-on of famous people.

[Shinn Kamiyra]

I suspect the number would be higher than one might suspect. Corroborated studies find that about 50% of married men commit adultery; and this isn't always just with one women, as I believe we can agree upon. Some fall into the defiled yet seductive lifestyle of being involved in prostitution, escort services, strippers, etc. And of those, some simply cannot pull away and go back again and again.

And, as Eris has already pointed out, it's all the easier for one with good looks, money, and influence to commit adultery. One of the only real differences I find with cheating spouses is just how far they're willing to sink into their basest instincts in their futile attempts to try and satiate their desire.

world news tonight fyi tiger might be sleeping around

ps.
who cares

[Capernicus]

I realize that people might not care, and to be honest I don't really care either. I was particularly interested in seeing if people thought the media should be glorifying it the way it does. I personally don't think it's any of our business, but I was trying not to show that in my initial post in case it influenced replies.

So really, posting just to say that you don't care is pretty counterproductive. You cared enough to post. Also, saying that doesn't make you cool. v.v

[Diocletian]

I think the reason why this is big is because of the lack of news. Let's face it, after MJ died they had no filler to get them through enough magazine paper or television spots. The man is rich and a household name, it's a surprise to me that they haven't tried to frame him for murder yet.

[RexCars]

Why so emotional?

How about this:

No one really cares, especially viewers at home, namely those watching E-Entertainment News. (Attention span of a nat?) Fleeting interest in what people are watching does not denote actual care.

It is tasteless, and that's what the news feeds on. Proof of this is indicative through the past 10 years of broadcasting and the reality television revolution.

Don't get me wrong. You're free to live for celebrity gossip for all I care. The same laissez faire whatever-rocks-your-boat mentality that prevents me from getting upset about what celebrities does prevents me from getting upset about your caring about celebrities.

o_O I just said I don't care. And I don't. But uh...yeah ok Eris.

[Eris]

o_O I just said I don't care. And I don't. But uh...yeah ok Eris.

But by saying you don't care, you implied that there may be a reason why some other person would care. It's comparable to saying 'The building is not on fire'. You clearly wouldn't say that unless there was reason to think that the building indeed was a ablaze.

So, what do you think? Has he cheated? Is it our business? How will this blemish on his otherwise perfect image effect him?

1) It's disappointing. Would you be troubled if you were cheated on?
2) I thought it was slam-dunk confirmed, but I'm not the expert.
3) What do you mean "is it our business" when you went a made this thread? Maybe you should have asked "should I have made this thread" or "should I be asking you all questions". At least that would be amusing.

Let's put this into perspective people, instead of pitying the poor celebrity who doesn't have any privacy.
The dude signed away that sort of privacy when he took up sponsorships from ABC corporation. Do you how ABC corp got that money? They paid their employees X must less and had the consumer pay Y much more. We all contributed a bit to Tiger's wealthy lifestyle on the premise that he was going to be a decent role model. I have no problem with this what-so-ever
HOWEVER, if he's going to earn from the fame, the he out to feel pain from the fame when he screws up. You can't have it both ways. If you live by the fame you die by the fame.
4) He'll probably lose some sponsorship money.

I don't care

And then yet you made this topic. Wow.

[bee.]

i don't really think it's anyone's business, all i care about is how he plays golf since that's what he's known for. honestly, who cares? (except, of course his family..)

No. I feel compelled to eat stuff and it's human nature, but I don't just let myself go. If human nature is a justification for ones action, then why even have a government in the first place? You have to fight your human nature at times if not for the sake of others, for your own sake.

Four police officers were shot execution-style in a coffee house in Washington.

Instead of getting a description of the killer out there to the masses, we were treated to the SHOCKING REVELATION that famous people sleep with fans and MARILYN MONROE SMOKED POT AND THERE'S VIDEO OF IT NOW OMGWTFBBQ

Anyway, while Tiger deserves to have his rhetorical spot blown as he is a figure in the public eye, it's not something anyone should be shocked about, nor is it anything people should actually CARE about. It should be, at best, a footnote at the end of a segment to fill space.

[Yew Neek™]

john kennedy cheated,bill clinton, also many other powerful ppl, republicans included cause there is no way george bush sr was sleeping with barbara for the past 40 yrs........these men are millionaires who have women thrown to them,lets be real, if you have a supermodel in your room saying you can tap it you gonna do it.

What are you babbling on about? You don't sleep with a girl just because she throws herself at you. You still should keep true to your vows.

[Yew Neek™]

not so easy when your in the room with her and you are the greatest golfer of our time, there is alot of ego issues in cheating.tiger cheated, o well, so did michael jordan, i just assume rich powerful men sleep with many beautiful women, thats one of the perks of becoming a rich powerful man.

[CrystalAce]

So, a rich, famous celebrity was caught cheating in a dramatic fashion. Big deal! So what? Apparantly I myself do not care much. But if I have to say anything on the subject, I just hope he either repents for his mistakes truly from his heart or is tortured for his actions for the rest of his life.

You know, right now, we are being manipulated to spread the words of the media in an epic level. I feel bad .

[Señor Nobody]

I don't really care though I am impressed at how many mistresses he has.

[Yew Neek™]

a little to ironic that his wife smashed the back window with a golf club don't ya think?

[DOOM!]

Breaking news flash, everybody:

Nobody in the world is touched by Woods' predicament.
