Regarding the original question...I think Tiger has made a bigger impact on kids than even MJ, he's introduced a whole new world to millions of them especially inner city minority kids.

Somer I can be critical, but I also "love" too
there are some horses, ballplayers, etc, I'm crazy about
so call me a "hater" but the question was Tiger or MJ
I picked MJ
in fact some of that socialogical impact Tiger has is really negative
not really by any doing of his own
but now ya got every daddy and mommy wanting Little Bobby
to be the next protege', the next Tiger Woods
who goes on Bob Hope and says he'll be the best and does it
he's 1 in a million, and the socialogical effect has been a false reality
presented to children by their parents
