It’s been almost a full day since Tiger Woods repented on world wide TV for his horrific (yet every straight male’s fantasy — have you seen his women?) transgressions. You’ve had time to mull over this earth shattering news conference that had networks like CNN and CNBC running countdown clocks before the event since nothing else of importance happened Friday. What do you think of it all?
As an interesting (if you’re bored out of your gourd) comparison, ABC has thoughtfully put together a number of mea culpas from assorted famous people.
UPDATE: Tiger’s penis issues a rebuttal.
Even oversea news agencies (Such as France 24) couldn’t overcome but to report the Tiger Woods story. At least they didn’t spend as much time in reporting round o’clock coverage on the “developments” when rumors and unverified reports on the matter emerged back a few month ago.
Pretty sad… almost 100 votes so far, and ZERO for “He’s redeemed himself”.
Unfortunately this is the type of stuff the media craves. It’s what the sheeple are interested in – someones else’s private life misery.
“Sorry I had sex.” Weird country.
It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see the book deal he’s getting out of this episode.
Get the hardback for the full color plates!
Who cares, but if someone can post the sponsors that idolize another role model who can’t seem to keep his dick in his pants, I’ll do my part.
Tigar is a media distraction, gives pundits something to talk about instead of actually going out and reporting on something that matters. Hell this months Maxim has a whole section on how to cheat and not get caught. People f***ing other people is nothing new and will continue until humans no longer exist.
I didn’t recognize him without the Nike logo smeared on his head.
why do people give a shit? >sigh<
and this is "real news" ya know?
I’M HOLDING THIS PRESS CONFERENCE TO GET YOU PRESS PEOPLE TO LEAVE ME ALONE. I WANT A LITTLE PRIVACY, THAT’S WHY I’M HOLDING A TELEVISED, SCRIPTED EVENT.
LEAVE ME ALONE.
ps. I’ll be holding another scripted televised event in 30 days to ask you again to leave me alone and give me privacy, oh yea, I might comment on that golf thing.
#2 The voting pattern that you see is easily explained. Some people are intensely interested and offended by who sticks what where. Everybody else couldn’t care less.
If the sex lives of professional athletes is an essential part of their job performance why wouldn’t this apply to every other job too?
I did think it was funny how he specified he had never taken performance enhancing drugs after talking about his numerous affairs.
‘What, viagra? Nah that was all me!’
I really do not get the attention on this incident with Tiger. Why should anyone and especially the golf community care that he cheated on his wife? If he really did use steroids that should be far more newsworthy. Cheating. So what. Only an idiot expects sports stars to be bastions of fidelity.
How nice it would be if more people had the intelligence to recognize the huge segment of the media which thrives on crap like this for what they are – parasites who get paid enormous amounts of money to make mountains out of molehills.
The tabloid culture and the people who have so little else of interest in their own lives that they gobble this stuff up are pathetic.
Tiger should have said, ” I fucked ‘em, I liked it. So did they. I will fuck again. Thank you for caring”.
Then Tiger should resume playing golf and never say another word about it except those four sentences.
He continues to win, new endorsements will roll in, corporations can get on board with an honest man who likes to fuck.
He’s a swinging d$%#. I think he always was. Elin is either mentally addled or she always knew he was like this and married him anyways. I think she has hidden motivations. I totally bought the media “Golden Boy” image. Elin and I are both retarded, possibly.
I still don’t get it! Who the hell cares if this guy cheats on his wife, and has sex with dozens of beautiful women. Nobody’s bee’s wax but his and his wife’s. Bunch of hypocritical a-holes! Sex and morality in america is joke for everybody but them.
I agree with 14, 15, and 16. Its his dick, he can put in any ugly skank he wants to. Its between him and his wife. I don’t particularly care. His being a spokesman for someone is not going to make me buy the product.
He would swing a stick at a ball to make the ball get in a hole. He hit it less than some while getting it in a hole.
[sar'efing] What a better world we were for it![/casm]
Oh my! He used his short leg to fill a different hole. How dare he! Now the world is a worse place!
If he designed a better vaccine or developed a life saving medical device or a cheap easily accessed power source or……
Just another useless sports figure with a stiff stick. Meanwhile potentially useful people are out of work more and more. (*golf claps*)
#3 You need to go back and look at the vote. The vast majority of the Sheeple you look down on expressed the view that it was of no interest to them.
Roughly rounded off: 83% of people say that he owes them nothing. About 1% forgive him and the other 16 % think he’s a scumbag.
I wonder how many people consider changing channels when talking heads bring the story up? I admit some interest in gossip but I don’t want to know what the talking heads think about Tiger Woods.
