Tiger Woods - The Entire Situation
Today Tiger apologized for his behavior, having numerous affairs, and for betraying his wife & children, family, friends, and so on. He is in a private in-patient therapy for sex addiction.
What I saw was a hurting man, someone who was really confessing his "sins" to the world, and wanting to make amends for his lack of control. In my mind he was sincere. Andrew |
Yes he seemed to be hurting.
Not to be rude, but to me. There are more important things in this world that we have to be worrying about. I could hear him on the news, but I didn't watch it. I personally think that the media has over blown this whole situation. And we, the viewers have picked sides and pointed at a man for our own satisfaction and belittlement knowing we have our own faults and injustice to deal with. |
Blaze,
The thing with this is the children. He has so much money tied up with his foundation, and with helping under-priviledged children. These children look up to TW as a role model. And he failed them all, including his own. |
It was refreshing to see someone stand up and take responsibility for his mistakes. No blaming his wife, his past, whatever. I also agree that the particulars of his affairs are not the business of the general public. Those are matters between him and his wife.
Maybe I am a bit of a sap but I felt like what he said and presented were genuine. The facts are that many watched this "breaking news" earlier today. Hopefully if nothing else, humility, taking responsibility publicly will serve as a teachable moment. |
Set my alarm for snooze
He was boring before and he's just as boring now.........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I could care less about Tiger Woods and his sexcapades. That said, is the "I am a sex addict" defense the new, "The Devil made me do it"?? *Shakes mah head*
|
Sex addiction, is that what cheating is called these days or is there a 12 step program for cheaters?
I could care less whether or not he was unfaithful to his wife, but I also don't feel sorry for him. If you are a public figure and make a lot of money from being one, then your comings and goings will be noted. So if you want to keep your public image, then don't do stupid things. If you want to be stupid, be stupid and have your ass handed to you. If you want to be private, then don't become a public figure. Sure maybe the media shouldn't dig in, but I also wonder why golfers get paid millions and millions of dollars to play a game or millions and millions of dollars to endorse things. Oh yeah so we will spend money. |
TW is just another over pampered rich guy who got caught with his pants down with a string of women..I feel sorry for his wife and kids..not him.He knew what he was geting in to and thats a fact.Like most men he forgot the meaning of what is is to be faithful to his marriage/wife/kids while he was chuckholding his wife.Me feel sorry for him,hell no!

IMO,he didn't have to apologize to anyone.He knows what he did was wrong and while he was doing it.In his game it's all about the money...and when he started losing to much of it,well,he called a press conference.After all,you can't have those type of women in your life anymore without all that money..now can you Mr.Woods.
Turn to the lord Tiger,and all will be well.I'd advice the same thing to all those young ladies.Ahhh,but what money can buy. That is all. |
I didn't see it, uhhh well OSHA don't allow TV's on a forklift. This is my take. He doesn't owe anyone anything except his wife and his kids. As for being a role model or a hero and all those kids he let down. #1 kids shouldn't even have a clue as to what sex or adultery is to have that effect their view of him. #2 role models are human they make mistakes, what a great lesson to learn as a child #3 children really should have other role models than athletes#4 leave TW alone and let him deal with whatever his issue is this is a personal matter and the media and the rest of the world should stay out of it.

i didn't see it, but from the earlier press, it sounds like he has an addiction to prescription drugs as well. It makes sense that he might have a number of addictions. Many addicts do. i take sex addiction seriously. Anything you do to alter your state of mind and avoid life, anything which done long term can fuck up your life, that can be a dangerous addiction. i hope the help he is getting works. i wish him the best. He's paying big time for his addictions. Most of us do. He's young, educated and rich though. He's got a chance at a bright future.

I hope with this story unfolding, that the use of modern day male-erectile prescription abuse starts getting some press as well. |
It's not any of my business who TW had sex with or the state of his marriage. I also feel it wasn't any of my business who President Clinton screwed around with or his marriage. While they may have public personas, they also have private lives. But that's just my look at things. TW's sexual affairs have no bearing on me buying something from one of his sponsors. He's still the greatest golfer ever.

I watched the video. It was a press conference to apologize mostly to his corporate sponsors and the PGA- as he said any apology to his wife would be private. He also let everyone know he would be returning to golf.
He said he had felt he deserved to enjoy himself because he had worked hard and become successful. Maybe he's a sex addict, maybe he isn't. He's rich and famous. He was found out because of that. He's following the path of many celebrities before him for staging a comeback- holding a press conference to say he's sorry and checking himself into rehab. |
So here is my .02 worth: I didn't think one bit of that "apology" was sincere. It was very rehearsed and the only time he looked up was when he wanted to make eye contact with the camera when he said "I'm very sorry". I don't give a rat's ass about Cheetah Woods...he is a liar and a cheater, and has no bearing on my life personally. He has no right to tell the media to leave his family alone when HE is the cause of that dramatic shitty mess.
I do hope he never comes back to play golf again because he will do nothing but make the golf course a circus and a distraction to the other golfers playing the game. (that don't have all the big sponsorships) I think he DID leave one thing out of his apology, and that would be the tail end of it in the hidden ink, much like people hide things on here...lol :winky: "I am very sorry I got caught." :bigcry: |
I just have no idea why he is appologizing at all. It is none of our business who he has sex with...I do not get why we care.
The only time it is our business is when politicians and other public figures run on beingagainst Gay Marriage or someone else's sexual escapades, then are found cheating on their spouses in airport restrooms. is golf supposed to be virtuous? |
