Tiger Woods' Apology

[standin]

WTF does any of this have to do with golf being a game of "integrity" or Tiger Woods owing anyone in the PUBLIC anything other than an apology for making them think he drives a Buick or wears Nike??????



You really are off your rocker, princess

Ok, but I am firmly off my rocker concerning being honest with yourself and others.

I do not watch television like the rest of you do here. I selectively read and view my information.
I did not know that Tiger had breeched his marital contract 12 times until long after everyone else.
I had not seen the apology until I saw it here.

Maybe, Tiger does not want to be another John Daly. I do not know. I hope he does not want to be a John Daly.
He was not married when I followed golf closely. But the fact remains he breached his contract with his wife. He could have choose a wife that would have supported, even enjoyed a promiscuous lifestyle with him.

He has only been married since 2004 (I had to look that up). That is a mere 6 years. Not over-all very long of a time line when dealing with family of the Wood's sort.

This is not the 1980's. One cannot be a public figure and not expect to be held accountable. I know all to well the extremes that private life can be invaded by a person by of determination. Is it right? No, it is not. However, I do not do things that I would not be accountable.

Tiger is in a vastly greater publicly known position than I would ever wish to be. He cannot expect in todays age to live a life with out disclosure. For his own well being, He had best be comfortable with himself.

Sure there are the lulu's that are well practiced at the anonymous, but how dead are they. A constant edge of attack and with little to no freedom to relish life carefree. The freedom of truth is incredible and not buy-able.

I haven't been to a golf tourney in a very long time. I enjoy them because of Tiger. I do not play golf. I go to to enjoy cordial and milieu.

Will I go to tourneys again, if or if not Tiger has his p&q's together, most likely I will. Tiger brought a vast new audience to golf. Moreover, Tiger has a significantly historical place in golf. It is up to him, now to choose if or if not he wants to be fair and honest.......with himself.

The only ones owed an apology are his wife and family. He doesn't need to apologize to anyone else for a goddamned thing!

I would say he needs to apologize to the companies that have paid him hundreds of millions of dollars to present a specific image to the public.

Surprised at some of the comments of those that didn't read a trascript or watched it. He did apologize to his sponsors, his employees, his fans and to all those that considered him some sort of example of a good person...

Far more than he needed to but clearly the man has a clue of what the media and a good portion of the world thought of him before his demons were exposed...

The only people he really owed an apology to were his wife, kids and family. I'm sure there's not enough words or deeds to cover that effectively.

This is just the media manipulating people into thinking this shit is actually important.

Boom. Done. Next.


Twenty seconds into watching this I'm thinking why is where this guy puts his lob news. If he was sorry he wouldn't have done it. What's going on that we should know about that isn't being broadcast while we're being conditioned to think this is important?

This is just the media manipulating people into thinking this shit is actually important.

It's also the Tiger machine manipulating us to believe a certain image is important. He and Elin will remain married for a few more years, but it is all a sham. Window dressing to have us believe in his perfect image again.

Jesus Christ.

Nevermind your non-sequitor manifesto, can we get back to the original point please?

How is golf a game of integrity [your words]

How can millionaires playing a game against other millionaires for millions of dollars all sponosred by billionaires a game of integrity?


If playing by the rules with your frineds on a muni course takes integrity, then so does my tennis matches, and any half court pick up basketball game.

If your assertion that golf is a game of integrity is based soley on the player being responsible for policing his own score and conduct, then you clearly have NO FUCKING CLUE how the PGA works....



So please, without going Ted Kazinski again, simply tell me how golf is a game of integrity


Tiger didnt cheat on the course, he didnt cork his bat or use steroids...HE BANGED SLUTTY CHICKS WHO THREW THEMSELVES AT HIM.

[binnie]

When your name's Tiger, you're kinda obligated to do a lot of fucking.........

That's easy. The little pencils they give you to keep score don't have erasers. I thought everybody knew that.

Now we're gettin somewhere.....

All across the world there are kids who were going to be completely faithful but now, because a billionaire golfer fucked some tarts, have had their morals destroyed.
