So you're saying that some of these women that have come out so far have not actually had affairs with Tiger? If that's what you're saying, I think you are totally wrong. These tabloids are not going to pay big money for false stories.

If some woman comes out of left field and claims she had an affair with Tiger, a tabloid is not going to simply takes the woman's word for it. If the woman doesn't have some proof, the tabloid is not going to buy the story.

I think that any of these sponsors are free to terminate his contract at any time because practically all of these endorsement deals have clauses in the contract stating that the contract can be terminated by the company if the person engages in any type of inappropriate behavior.

Morals clauses... In this economy I'd be looking for an out if I had him.. This may be the most expensive tail in history.

If they all dump him, he's going to take about a 90% pay cut. That translates to around $90 million a year that he will have cost himself.

I'm saying we'll be able to tell by if they "talk freely" or not. If they are real, Tiger $$ will buy their silence. If they can be bought and talk to the tabloids, I'll guess not real or a one-night stand he doesn't sic his lawyers on to purchase silence.

Is this some sort of admission? Are you woman #10? Wow! This would be the biggest thing around Nerdy Trail, since the Big Contest of '08.

But a few of them have already talked openly to the tabloids. Jaimee Grubbs sold her story along with the voice-message and all the text messages. The waitress at the Florida diner sold her story and did a long interview with some British tabloid.

Tiger does seem a bit racist.

And rock stars, and mega-bucks traveling businessmen. Groupies are groupies, madams are madams.

SO maybe 25% of the dozens of girls should be black no? A handful?

I actually had it slightly wrong about Tiger's mom. She is 50% Thai, 25% Chinese, and 25% Dutch.

Here is an interesting article about Tiger from years ago. It says that when he fills out forms requesting ethnicity, he always writes "Asian". He is quoted as saying, "Actually, I'm 90% Oriental, more Thai than anything."
