Before this, I think he could of gotten himself elected President someday. You're talking about a sport that relies on people being honest. He's not doing it. He just let about 300 million (in this country alone) know that you can get away with lying to the police. Face it, he's probably our most favorite American Person. Just look at what 2 or 3 on here routinely keep saying about him. He could do about anything, n' they'd be cool with it. He's probably someone they really, really like. If they saw him lie about that accident, don't you think their attitude about lying to the police has changed a bit? "Ends justifies the means" just hit one out of the park. Also, I don't agree that you don't care. Anybody who keeps coming into a thread is interested in the subject matter. If you want someone to stop writing about a subject, then you care a lot about that subject. Don't try to intimidate me like you n' Danzig just did. I'm not writing about you. I'm writing about the subject. You didn't even bring in a subject like "celebrity news shows" etc. No, you asked me a personal question that you hoped would make me stop writing. I answered it, but I'd appreciate it if you two would use your efforts to support a position, and not just try to stop someone from writing.

OK..maybe I'm different, but I think athletes, "celebrities", etc should not be looked up to, put on a pedestle, etc. So if think it's only fair that if I see Tiger Woods in an airport and could care less, or have someone "famous" on my flight and could care less, that if he has marital issues, it's no one's business but their's and the laws if he breaks one. Kids should look at Doctors, scientists, authors as role models..not athletes and especially not actors or celebrities. But that's certainly an IMO, but since you sorta' asked..

He's a lot of kids' role model. He makes a lot of money. He has his own line of stuff that companies want people to buy (video games, clothing, cars, golf equipment, shaving crap.) Those are American role models. Not some research scientist in debt. Not a teacher. People who make the most money (and the public knows about) are the role models in a country that's this Capitalistic. Poor kids look up to them. Middle Class kids look up to them. Rich Kids look up to them. That's America. Like it or not. That's what this form of Capitalism creates. If they see El Tigre getting away with lying about an accident, then a whole lot of kids just learned it's kool to try to do the same thing.

BTW, for role models, kids should look to their parents first. Hopefully, their parents will not let them down.
