Tiger's Problems, Much Larger than Infidelity
Posted on 12/10/09 at 9:18 am

First when it was simply an affair, I like most of you probably thought he'd toss the wife some cash, public apology, then she would be quiet suppportive and return to life as perceived normal.
However, this has become much much more devastating. The transcripts of voice mails and text messages are of a "high school" very immature nature. Further it seems he has some major issues that require constant and random validation. Certainly does not seem to be the have it all together personality from the golf course. Also, the fact that none of the women are black is strange. Coincedence? I doubt it.
The public persona of Tiger Woods is trashed. Endorsement deals will go away at least in the near future.
I raised the point a few days back that he may not be on tour next year. Thought at that time it may be a long-shot. But I really think Tiger disappears from American golf for a while. Also, I really can't see Augusta dealing w/ this distraction.
I could be wrong about this but w/ each passing day it just gets worse. It's no longer infidelity it's living a dual life w/ half of it being secret/not so secret.
I doubt Tiger can fully recover from this.
Remember the first Nike commercial that Tiger ever did upon leaving Stanford. Had the line, "still places that I cannot play because of the color of my skin". Yet, he seems to have no affinity of women of color.

So what you are saying is that Tiger is a racist?

What does this have to do with anything? The dude is mixed race. He's attracted to white chicks. A lot of black guys are, just like plenty of white guys are attracted to Asian and black chicks. Who gives a frick?

FWIW, Tiger has never been the type to racially group himself. He's never worn his 'blackness' on his sleeve. I don't know why this shocks people.

I would guess that a vast majority of email/texts between people having an affair are classified in this manner.

Tiger's Mom: 1/2 Thai, 1/4 dutch, 1/4 chinese
Tiger's Dad: 1/2 black, 1/4 chinese, 1/4 native
i consider natives to be closer to white than any other racial grouping given, so my breakdown is
1/2 asian
1/4 black
1/4 white/native

No shite. Nobody looks good in hindsight in this situation.

The thing is tiger is already filthy rich. He could never play again and he would be set. He'll be back in 2 years.

I don't think Augusta can just kick him out because they feel he is a distraction. If he qualifies for the tourney you can play if you want

Who the frick cares about the dude's personal life? Are you a bunch of women? He plays golf. He dominates golf. That's all I care about.
People like specs delving into his "affinty for white women" are making this out to be much more than one of the greatest athletes of our time wanting some sweet tang.

I agree with you 100%.....but good luck making your point to all the adolescence's on this site. All you will get is how lucky he is and how it is no big deal.
An affair is one thing.....but this dude is just a bad guy. Creating a public persona which includes throwing in a couple of kids. Dude is a POS....not because he screws ho's, but because he is a fraud and is making millions off of a percieved public image.

What does him being a bad person have ANYTHING to do with his dominance?

SFP, I unlike some posters here value your posts. Don't always agree, but respect someone w/ well though out opinions.
However, on the Masters it's not about the money. Augusta and the Masters is flush w/ cash. There are no corporate tents at the Masters. Parking is free and close to the gates. Only walked 150 yds to get in. Also, concessions are the least expensive of any sporting event you'll ever attend.
Back in '03 when that dyke was suing and protesting over no female members, Hootie Johnson stated that they would not change their membership rules. To prevent any backlash towards their sponsors, Johnson dropped all advertisements, returned all revenue and provide the Masters telecast to CBS commercial free.
The MASTERS does not need the money. I can't say that they will uninvite Tiger, but I would not be surprised as this scandal continues to grow.
On the larger issue, Tiger has some serious psycological issues and maybe a sex addiction. Also, if the reports of him paying for liason's is true this plot deepens even further.
I really wish this had never occured for many reasons. Primarily its tragic to see anyone's family destroyed or at least scarred and I believe that his has been. Secondarily this is not good for golf and I happen to be a golf nut. And lastly, this is just another example of someone who has been blessed beyond belief and accomplished so much, and then seeming to be willing to throw it all away for either drugs, alcohol, or well companionship (to put it tactfully).

Nothing, which is why I said nothing about his golf talent. Are you retarded?
Tiger the Golfer......Best Ever
Tiger the Famous Person/Role Model/Pitch Man/Husband....One of the Worst ever

Augusta dumping possibly the greatest golfer in history because he cheated on his wife?
That would be the height of hypocrisy. I'd throw down a few bucks that well over 50% of the green jacket winners have cheated on their wives at least once, and that;s probably understating it.
