    In reply to The Diminishing Returns of the Tiger Woods Story
    The tabloids can make drama themselves and keep the story going if it's profitable. They can have stories about how Tiger's life is down the toilet without his wife and kids, how Elin is "showing Tiger a thing or two" by moving on with her life or dating a new guy, etc. Look at all the endless stories about Jennifer Aniston's connection with Brad and Angelina. Aniston is usually in a different country than the couple, she and Brad don't share a kid or something that would mean continued ties, and the divorce was years ago.

    How bad are things for Tiger? Even men want Elin to walk away with a truckload of cash. That's bad.

    Walk away, Elin. Take your husband to the cleaners then give the cash to charity. Be the hero to your kids and to us and you will be rewarded with the respect, comforts, and privacy you deserve.

    no drama? are you on crack? it's like the story of the decade.
    Apparently this is how you would report the leveling of Pompeii:

    Stage One: a bunch of Romans just doing their daily routine, chillaxing when some Volcano hiccups.

    Stage Two: WTF!? There's molten ash falling everywhere! What is this crap?

    Stage Three: Um, omg, Hot lava is raining down on us and melting the entire world. Yawn.

    Stage Four: No drama, so some lava exploded and flowed down upon an entire civilization and preserved it for eons. End of story. Move on.

    Hello! You need a clue ;)

    I just keep thinking of the best simple joke ever from SNL: "Over the weekend, Tiger Woods ran into a tree and a bunch of ladies fell out."

    Or something like that. Thank you, Seth Meyers.

    Hamilton -- but wait! There's some significant shit going on that gives us a STAGE FIVE

    One of his fucking doctors was just busted trying to enter the US from Canada carrying Human Growth Hormone shit... so now there'll be a bunch of asterisk talk on all his great records and his amazing performance. (Have you seen how built that motherfucker is lately? Wha, he been hittin' the gym?)

    So not only is he a scumbag for cheating on his wife with nasty ugly whores, there's the potential for his whole golfing career to be thrown into question -- making him super-Überdouche of the decade.

    This ain't goin nowhar anytime soon, trust me..

    @lobstr: Unless Tiger's fixers can silence the murmuring, the rumors about HGH and other drug use (and how much Elin knows) will at least keep this story on the sports radar for awhile.

    He should have just gone the route of Jeter and stayed single. He could have boned all the hot chicks he wanted, not cheated on his wife, kept a clean image (Jeter is proof that's possible), continued dominating, etc etc.

    You are so wise, Jeter.

    @FitnessMadeSimple: One of the best stories ever about Jeter-I have a friend who slept with him and amongst other hilarities, she wakes up, he is gone, she is escorted out by security and given a gift bag full of Jeter memorabilia. I've seen it. Hilarious. And I still love him!

    Doesn't Tiger usually wear his hat facing forward? Maybe that's the sign of the douche: when you start a-cheatin' you turn your hat backwards, Jon Gosselin style.

    Perhaps after the massive public humiliation he's just experienced, Tiger will get all Zen about things. He might hunker down and really make an effort to further hone his talent for golf. In doing so, he might become an even more dominating presence in the sport, reaching new heights of success never thought possible. And maybe he'll come out gaining some lasting wisdom from his experience; perhaps he'll even redeem himself with his family, friends and peers.

    Or he might just keep boning skanks. You never know.

    my favoritestest Ikea restaurant fare is this little chocolate pie wedge that's remnant of Little Debbie Star Crunches, and it's like $2. Umpfh. I believe it's called Svalbärschokolätæn .. (or is that what they call the blue plastic 3 foot whisk?)
