    Am I the only one who thinks this whole thing has peaked in so far as interest to the non-gossip magazine reading public? Or does it still have "legs" as they say?

    Jesper should get off his high horse. He better hope there's nothing in his own closet while he's bashing Tiger. PGA golfers are just as notorious as baseball, basketball, and football players. It never comes out b/c they're boring and they're not as famous. Tiger has always had a reputation as a man-whore. Jesper still introduced his beloved nanny to Tiger even though he had to know about his reputation. He also had to know about the affairs before now since Tiger never bothered to hide anything. Be careful who you wag your finger at Jesper.

    @heywhat: 'We have been nice to Tiger before...' who the fuck does this Jesper think he is? Tiger married a member of his fucking staff, not his first born. I pretty sure that losing Jesper's respect is the least of Tiger's problems.

    What I want to know is how he got away with it for so long, seeing as be didn't cover his tracks well. And why he chose to get married if he was a pussyhound at heart.

    @buda: And why he chose to get married if he was a pussyhound at heart.

    I think it had something to do with his parents. His late dad was grooming him for a specific life from Day One and I think marrying and settling down quickly was part of the plan. Maybe they thought if he was married it wouldn't be like all of those other athletes going around fathering babies here and there and messing with different women all the time and...
    oops.

    @Magister: I think you're wrong. He was his image. Carefully cultivated by his father. Who is now dead. I'm guessing Tiger is reeling from the fall from grace and what it means toward how he felt about his Dad. Men who feel like they let Dad down are usually pretty f'ed up in the head.

    @TroisFilles: I hear what you're saying, but I don't think most people care about Tiger Woods.

    The average person knows him as a guy who is good at golf and this scandal is generating a lot of interest because the media has been pushing it and because so many of us have never gave him a second thought, we're watching to see what we've been missing.

    When all is said and done, if he's still good at golf, he'll be right back where he started.

    @Magister: Good point. My husband is a golfer - so we've watched Tiger and seen him in a tournament. It's like when Kobe had his problems - didn't affect me at all. Not a BBall fan. I frankly don't care what he does either. It's on old story - money + fame = women. I do think he's going to be all kind of messed up now though. Self-inflicted for sure. Have a good weekend. TF.

    Was that a H8 iron you just used there Hamilton?
    I love golf because it's the great equalizer.
    It's just you and your meagre (or prodigious) talent against The Course.
    You don't have to be young or wealthy (although that doesn't hurt), or tall or particularly athletic. You don't have have to have four limbs or two eyes. You can be very thin or very, very fat. Or anywhere in between
    You can play golf whilst dosing on your meds or with a beer buzz or totally baked (recommended on a sunny summer day).
    You can be a woman, a black man, a person of geighness (or all three), an athiest, a Muslim or a Jew.
    You can also be a complete douchenozzle/twatwaffle.
    Everyone gets to play if they want to.
    But the #1 reason I love golf is that, every once in a while, I'll hit a shot* that I know cannot be hit any better by anyone. Not even Tiger.
    Don't be a H8R Hamilton!

    *I am not a very talented golfer, and that makes it so much better.

    I believe it was the great philosopher Charles Barkeley who said that winning is the deodorant that covers any kind of stink. Once he wins a couple of majors he'll be fine. Sure he won't have the sterling reputation that say Arnie or Nicklaus had but it's not like he's Barry Bonds. Michael Jordan was/is a notorious man-whore and Ali was married four times but no one remembers that. Winning cures everything, Tiger!

    Speaking of robotic sportsmen, if I ever found out Roger Federer was running around on Mirka I would feel righteous anger. Not only would such a revelation actually surprise me (unlike Tiger, where people were just waiting for the shoe to drop) but they have been together forever and she has taken an active role in his career. I have to keep the faith that this athlete's level of class isn't mostly a marketing construct.

    @A Message To Rudy: Yeah I was wondering that same thing. And he keeps SUCH a low profile with the rest of his personal life that banging random nightclub whores is just bizarre. I would have thought that if he were going to look for some action on the side, he'd do it more discreetly... like a reputable escort service or at least girls who are nearly as low-key as he is.

    But you may have a point. He's been playing the game since he was, what, three? So maybe this was his "fox in the henhouse" scenario. But still..didn't the guy go to Stanford? Are they THAT dumb there, social skills or not?

    I've never particularly liked Tiger Woods, but he's super-wealthy, super-talented, super-famous and a very nice looking man. And he travels a lot. It's not surprising.

    Nor is it surprising that his wife may have gotten extremely upset, especially when it became public.

    @A Message To Rudy: I didn't know about his father passing away. Not being interested in golf, until last week I pretty much ignored anything about Tiger Woods.

    Yeah he went to Stanford, but there are some very smart people that have no common sense. I think with the childhood he had he didn't know too much about being sneaky either. Let's face it, he wasn't the kind of kid who told his folks he was staying over at a friends house only to go party all night. If you think about it you probably know some smart people that you'd be able to get over on. Book smart doesn't equal street smart.

    I imagine his wife reacted the way most wives would if they caught their husband having multiple affairs, as she should have. She's pretty fiery, breaking out the windows with a golf club. While watching this unfold I couldn't help but think "Oh shit" for Tiger.
