I think it's a good idea....however the sharks will remain swirling for a long time.

Good for him. I hope he and his family are able to find the healing required. Tiger and Elin both face a long road ahead of them, especially Elin IMO. Forgiveness can be one tough ass thing to come by when you are feeling an incredible amount of hurt and betrayal that has been caused by a significant other. If Tiger is serious about changing his ways, be needs to be willing to jump through any and every hoop that Elin ask of him in the near future. I pray he finds the humility to do that. I wish them the best.

I hear you Kev, but I really believe the only way is an equipement change, and the one sometimes refered to as the biggest equipment change possible. If he turns it around it would be as great an accomplishment as his golf ability.

Are you saying that Tiger should become a gelding?

Article in Sports Illistrated coming out in the next week or 2 with Phil M. calling Tiger a liar and not a nice person. Says everyone on tour knew for years this was going on.

If that's true then we have the ultimate double standard.....
Okay Tiger isn't the husband of the year.....but if Jasper volcano ash mumbles who introduced Ellin to Woods knew for years, where does this Pop Tart get off looking to slam Woods as if this was new news.

If he grew a pair he probably could have saved the nanny and kids quite a bit of pain but he didn't have the stones to speak ill of the Great One...no wonder your game is gone. The game takes guts and you left yours in the 90's.

Here is an article about a Madam that says she would set up Tiger's orgies. She says he would spend around $30,000-$40,000 a weekend.

If so many people were privy to Tiger's escapades how did he keep it from the public for so long?

Maybe what I wrote was misleading...........from the excerpt( I read and can not find) he was implying that he was a strange bird and fellow players knew he was hiding something and that his public persona was a fraud.

That doesn't surprise me too much that Phil would say those things. It is well known that Phil and Tiger can't stand each other.

I don't think it was very smart for Phil to say anything. You never make yourself look good when you bad-mouth someone else. And in this situation, there is no reason to do it. Tiger has already made himself look bad enough. There is no reason for Phil to say anything.

Best synopsis of the entire Tiger Woods story by Seth Meyers of SNL:


"Last Friday, Tiger Woods hit a tree with his SUV, and a bunch of ladies fell out"
