Another Government Takeover ?
Given the reported effect this will have on the Sports Industry, retail sales and the current trends in DC, perhaps the Administration will takeover
Management of Tiger on the premise that his collapse will have a "Systemic" effect on the economy.
They can add it to the total number of Jobs "Saved" listed on recovery.gov. Using their math, it could bump the total another 50,000 or so.

LONDON (AP)—Tiger Woods’ decision to take “an indefinite break” to repair his marriage was greeted with surprise, bemusement and even relief Saturday
as golfers, fans and commentators contemplated the immediate future of a sport without its biggest draw.
John Daly sympathized as the worldwide media continued to pile up accusations of infidelity, Annika Sorenstam lamented a family tragedy and Colin
Montgomerie noted dryly that golf’s big prizes just became a little more accessible.
These are tumultuous times for golf after Friday’s announcement by its No. 1 player that he is taking time out following two weeks of allegations of
extramarital affairs. Woods and his wife, Elin, have been married five years and have a 2-year-old daughter and a 10-month-old son
AP - Dec 12, 1:24 am EST Golf Gallery “There was an aura, and that wall, if you like, has been split slightly,” said Montgomerie, Europe’s 2010 Ryder
Cup captain. “There are cracks, and I feel that it gives us more opportunity of winning these big events now.”
Next year could have been one of the biggest in Woods’ career, with three of the four majors played at courses on which he has triumphed by large
margins.
Instead, golf is preparing for another spell without its biggest superstar. Woods’ absence from the PGA Tour for much of last season because of
reconstructive knee surgery led to a drop in television ratings of 50 percent.
“Indefinite is a scary word,” former U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy said. “That’s not good for us. But I’m sure he’ll get it worked out.”
Woods so far seems intent on doing so without help from his fellow professionals.
“He just didn’t want to talk to anybody,” Daly said at the Australian PGA on Saturday. “I’m in shock over it all, a lot of our players are in shock.
I’m not happy with the way some of our players have responded—that’s their way of getting back because they know they can’t beat him at golf.
“They always say there is no one bigger in golf than the game itself. But Tiger is.”
Craig Parry was finishing his third round at the Australian PGA when he heard about Woods’ decision to step aside.
A friend of Woods who lives nearby in Windermere, Fla., Parry played alongside him for the first two rounds of last month’s Australian Masters in
Melbourne—Woods’ final tournament before his car crash and subsequent accusations of infidelity.
“What he did was totally wrong,” Parry said. “And he’s got no one to blame except himself. You can look at other people, but he’s the one who’s got to
look in the mirror.”
And in the newspapers, Saturday brought a fresh round of headlines all over the world.
Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport featured a cartoon showing a golf bag containing six bare female legs in high heels and two clubs.
German tabloid Bild continued to print salacious details of the scandal, but added on its Web site that it hoped “Tiger is as successful as on the
golf course” as he tries to repair his marriage.
“For years to come he will be a figure of fun to comedians great and small,” said Peter Allis, the BBC’s chief golf commentator for more than 30
years. “We were told for years that his father stood by the side of the green throwing pebbles in buckets of water, shouting and blowing whistles to
make him oblivious to all these noises.
“Now we have to see how strong his mind is.”
Although Michelle Wie refused to comment at the Dubai Ladies Masters on what she said was a private matter for Woods, former top-ranked LPGA star
Sorenstam told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet she was saddened by the news.
“I think this whole thing is tragic,” she said. “We used to train together, but both myself and Tiger have been very busy lately and therefore haven’t
seen, or heard from each other as frequently.”
Daly, who has been married four times, cautioned Woods and his wife, Elin, to remain together for the right reason. He said Woods should consider a
television interview to limit damage to his image.
“If I was him, I’d go to Oprah, I would get on her show, tell the truth and it doesn’t matter what the media say any more, because it’s all out in the
open,” Daly said.
Veteran British publicist Max Clifford agreed.
“Hopefully he can go on something like Oprah, maybe even with his wife, to show that they’re making a real go of it,” Clifford said. “The clever move
would be for him to say, ‘I’m coming back when Elin tells me the time is right.”’
For now, Woods is communicating publicly only through carefully worded statements on his Web site.
Earlier this year, he became the first athlete to surpass $1 billion in career earnings, according to Forbes magazine. His sponsors include Nike,
Gillette, AT&T, Gatorade and Tag Heuer.
Nike, which signed a multiyear contract with Woods in 2006, is standing by the player.
“He is the best golfer in the world and one of the greatest athletes of his era,” Nike spokeswoman Beth Gast said in a statement. “We look forward to
his return to golf. He and his family have Nike’s full support.”
And it isn’t just golfers who are thinking about Woods.
“One thing people don’t understand is that we’re human,” Heat guard Dwyane Wade said in Miami. “You’re not born with a menu on how not to do things
wrong. You’re going to make mistakes like every human being. It’s just unfortunate that you’re in the public eye so much and a lot of people get hurt
by it.”
Bobcats forward Stephen Jackson wished Woods the best.
“Sometimes you just got to take time out to reflect on what’s more important, and that’s family,” he said after Charlotte’s 104-85 loss in San
Antonio.
AP Sports Writer Dennis Passa in Coolum, Australia, AP Sports Writer Andrew Dampf in Rome, AP Sports Writer Tim Reynolds in Miami and Associated Press
Writer Paul J. Weber in San Antonio contributed to this report.

Al Sharpton Replies
Race Pimp Al Sharpton Blasts Tiger Woods for Lack of Mistress Diversity
The Rev. Al Sharpton held a press conference today to blast Tiger Woods for the lack of diversity among his mistresses. Sharpton claims that the lack
of African-American women among Woods’ harem will have a negative affect on the black community, specifically young black girls.
“Why is it that a man who calls himself black can’t bring himself to cheat on his wife with a black woman?” said Sharpton, speaking to a group of
supporters in Harlem. “What does it say to young black girls everywhere when you pass them over? Shame on you, Tiger Woods. What would your daddy
say?”
Sharpton, who has long championed taking black women as mistresses, said that today’s black athletes need to stop neglecting black women when it comes
to extramarital affairs, and should follow the examples of positive black role models such as Jesse Jackson and Martin Luther King, Jr., both of whom
cheated on their wives with black women. Sharpton also stressed that cheating with African-American women would help the black community financially
by giving black girls the chance to sell their stories to tabloids and gossip magazines.
Added Sharpton, “I’m not asking you to not cheat on your wives, I’m just asking you to give back to your own community.”

So very true! This has been going on from the beginning of time. Men of power and money(and millions without that) have had affairs, mistresses and
whatever. Lets not forget Tiger is still a very young man, 34, who has, I'm sure, thousands of females flocking over him where ever he goes. Can any
of us REALLY admit we would have never done the same he has done??? Lets give him a break and let he and his wife get their lives back in order,
whatever that will be. I for one am tired of all the bashing. There are many more important things going on in this world than worrying about how
many women Tiger slept with

I'll quit when he quits. So far he hasn't given any indication that he will. This one's right up there with catching Obama "flagrante delicto." [has
anybody heard anything yet?]
Anyway, what's more important than trashing somebody who thinks he's above decency and fidelity?

Tiger Playing the Lay
Making a momentary stop at CNN's Headline News last night, I stumbled across a discussion featuring Jane Velez-Mitchell and two Male Commentators.
Jane, who was pursuing a "Tiger is BAD, BAD, BAD" and the women are victims view, was challenged with the assertion that the Women were as much to be
criticized as Woods since they KNEW he was married and (in some cases) coupled in HIS (and his Wife's) Home. JV-M was having NONE of that saying that
"Tiger was the one breaking his marriage vows, not them. THEY weren't doing anything wrong".
It's all in your point of view, I guess.

I don't think Tiger Woods would have achieved such prominence in his golf career without the addition of 'hot babes' and the exhilaration,
satisfaction and hormones from his catin around.
I also feel that he is a supreme a** h*** for getting married and having the arrogance to think that he could get away with it and crushing his lovely
wife and familly.

Jane Velez-Mitchell is just peeed she was not one of them.
Yes, the ****puppies who spread their legs and lips for Tiger's wood are completely culpable for each of his "indiscretions". To say otherwise is
just another indication of the dual moral standard that Americans confuse with actually having moral standards.

Tiger signed a marriage contract. He alone is responsible.

Public personalities are open to public criticism, especially when they deserve it. He not only violated his oath but, violated a common perception
of that oath. He's not the only one who ever swore fidelity and not the only one to break it. He's no better or worse than any other man or woman
who broke a promise.
"You're only as good as your word"
Tiger isn't a very good person, is he.

You are very right!!!!!!
"Tiger isn't a very good person, is he. "
I would hate to imagine how many people you would say this about if all was known. Because he is a public personality we hear about it. How about the
tens of thousands that do the same thing day in and day out. I'm pretty sure there are very few of us who ever lived that can say they NEVER broke a
promise so does that mean there's not to many good people who have ever lived???
