About Woods, Gibson said "I love the guy. . . . I want to watch him play golf. I want to see him swing a club." . . . (VIDEO)

I agree to a point, but I don’t think I quite ready to get life lessons in morality from anyone in Hollywood.

I want to watch him play golf.

I want to see more nude pictures of those knock-out broads he slept with.

Nothing like hitting the “post” button to suddenly realize you made a typo. It should read, “I agree to a point, but I don’t think I’m quite ready to get life lessons in morality from anyone in Hollywood.”

I used to like Mel but he is just another adulterer and drunk.

You use drunk like it's a pejorative.

Sounds like someone who is resentful about his own treatment and feels for somebody else who is “getting it.” I can relate to a certain extent too, but he shouldn’t count on getting his hundred mill per in endorsements back again. I spect that kind of money is gone forever. And if he IS juicing, which I’m pretty sure he is, or was, that’s a deal killer, Ladies. Shut’it down.

Oh Mel. Geez, I still dream of him as he was in Braveheart, but is going soft in the head as he gets older?

Braveheart is a movie. Gibson is an actor. He played the lead role in the movie. The character in the movie is not Mel Gibson the man.

I like The Lord of the Rings. I liked the part, Strider, that Viggo Mortensen played. But in real life Viggo is a POS.

Tiger + Mel = birds of a feather.

Hey, you're only down & out if you decide to stay there - even John Daly is making a come back. In case you're not familiar with John Daly's path, just run a general browser image search - that dude is lucky to be above ground! Plus, Tiger's chasing some historical records, he's not out for long - his competitive drive won't let him.

I find it interesting that a world that finds sodomy “OK” and even celebrates it somehow see something “wrong” with Tiger Woods.

Dunno - the dude one of those larger-than-life/potential train-wreck type folks that people can’t get enough of, so it wouldn’t surprise me.

LOL! This is satire right? So you are judging me for judging them? Sounds like you are doing the same thing.

So I am worse than Tiger spreading STDs to endless women or Mel driving around drunk and cheating on his wife? So judging someone is worse then maybe Mel killing a child while drunk driving or Tiger high on drugs and booze killing someone in his SUV.

Go say 4 hail Marys for Mel and call me in the morning.

Ah, so the Jew-hating Mel Gibson and the prostitute known as Tiger Woods are pals, eh?

Nice match-up!

A FRiend recently posted that Spike Lee and Charles Barkley were trying to meet with Tiger Woods post-golf club whacks.

Now THAT is a match up for a joke!

Spike Lee, Tiger Woods, Mel Gibson and Charles Barkley walk into a bar...

Poor Daly is a tragedy. Even Tiger said that Daly may have been one of the most gifted golfers of a generation. So many mental demons. He is finally getting his life together. He just needs to cut out the diet cokes and smoking. He looks great in that red shirt. The gastric bypass helped him lose a lot of weight.

I saw a picture of Mickelson from a few days ago. He was chubby in 2008 and slimmed down in 2009. He looks even better for 2010.

Last year at major tourneys, Mickelson shot lower scores than Tiger while he took a month or so off to take care of his wife. Phil almost won the Masters and U.S. Open. He beat Tiger like a drum at the last tourney in Shanghai and won the tourney. Tiger put two shots in the water in the last 3 holes.

Really, don’t tell me there is no Santa Claus. Stop talking to me like I am a child, I was merely talking about him being not only a hunk in the movie - but still with his wife at that point in his life and appeared to have it all under control. That was 15 years ago.

Sadly, Mel Gibson has demons and as he gets older they appear to be taking their toll. I can see where he would feel a kinship to another celebrity under the microscope but both men are flawed and will have to live with the consequences of their actions. Too bad for them.
