Tiger: I Need a 'Kobe Special'
TMZ.com ^ | 11/29/09 | Staff

Posted on 11/28/2009 10:15:10 PM PST by OldDeckHand

Tiger Woods had a "Kobe Special" on his brain hours after what looks like a domestic dispute with his wife, Elin Nordegren -- this according to someone who spoke with Tiger on Friday.

During the phone conversation on Friday, Tiger told his friend, "I have to run to Zales to get a 'Kobe Special.'" The person on the other end of the phone asked Tiger what a "Kobe Special" was. The reply -- "A house on a finger."

During the conversation, Tiger said his wife had "gone ghetto" on him.

Tiger's either letting this leak intentionally, or he needs to choose much, much better "friends". He should also avoid anything Kobe Bryant does or says about marital "relationships".

I wonder what happens between Tiger and his “friend” when the conversation they had makes it into the news within 24 hours. Sad.

The size of the rock often indicates the size of the infraction. If it’s big enough to choke a dinosaur...well...Tiger be in the dawg house (woof woof).

"Zales? Nah, I’m not buying this leak."

Well, you probably can't pick up this....

at Zales.

OTOH, as a fully heterosexual male, Tiger probably doesn't know the name of any other jewelry store. I know I sure don't.

Oh fer cryin’ out loud. This sounds like something a Jr High school girl would make up!

And Zales? I mean, a diamond is a diamond but most celebrities and monied folk don’t shop at Zales. They go to exclusive, private jewelers. You don’t see anyone on the red carpet with ice from Zales.

Tiger would know. I’m sure her engagement/wedding band set didn’t come from Zales. And she probably has a bunch of rocks that he’s bought that came from an exclusive jeweler, not a mall chain store.

Funny though that jennyjenny and I picked up on the Zales thing! Must take a woman to know her gems don’t come from Zales!

Kobe has earrings to match.

Lakers Point guard Kobe Bryant went big and gave now wife Vanessa Bryant an enormous 7 carat Asscher cut Solitaire Engagement Ring after 6 months of dating. The couple officially married in 2001.

three days after Colorado prosecutors announced that he was being charged with the June 30 rape of a 19-year-old employee at a resort he had visited -- Kobe Bryant, his wife, Vanessa, and their 6-month-old daughter, Natalia, walked into an exclusive jewelry boutique in Santa Monica, Calif., PEOPLE reports in its latest issue. Their purpose for being there: to pick up the surprise that the NBA star had waiting for Vanessa -- a stunning 8-carat purple diamond ring worth about $4 million.

Yeah, Swedish models are known for going ghetto, especially on guys who didn't grow up in one.

Whoever his "friend" was may not have understood what "going Viking on him meant".

Here is the real story!
 
Tiger was sitting on the couch, in the living room. 
 
His wife sits down next to him and asks "What on the TV?"
 
"Dust"  he replied.
 
and that's how it started

"This is hilarious."

Anything that involves a Cadillac Escalade piloted by a caublicasion billionaire traveling less than 30 yards but still managing to destroy itself, a fire hydrant and palm tree coupled with a screaming mad Viking wench swinging an implement of her husband's profession in order to exact revenge on the aforementioned husband for hooking up with a skank, is going to be hilarious every time.

Someone earlier today mentioned the hay that Saturday Night Live is going to make with this. They're right.

That’s the joke, that Kobe went to Zales to get a ring. Tiger was being sarcastic.

Now I have this image of her chasing him around the house with a TEC-9, or a Glock held sideways.

It looks like more than 30 yards to me... Also, no palm tree either... :-)

If you see that little golf cart on the street and the wagon behind it, it's right where the wagon is -- where you'll see the fire hydrant. And the tree is the one on the right side of that driveway.

Well, actually, in situations like that, it doesn't matter what the truth is or whether it happened or not. What matters is what the little woman thinks... LOL ...

Even if it didn't happen, if she thinks it happened, you're in trouble... LOL ...

Whoever his "friend" was may not have understood what "going Viking on him meant".

Berserkers (or Berserks) were Norse warriors who are reported in the Old Norse literature to have fought in a nearly uncontrollable, trance-like fury, a characteristic which later gave rise to the English word berserk. The name berserker arose from their reputed habit of wearing a kind of shirt or coat (Old Norse: serkr) made from the pelt of a bear (Old Norse: ber-) during battle.[1]

Some black women already hate Tiger Woods for marrying a blond Swedish barbie doll. Tiger is 25% black, but was we know from the history of black racists politics, any black in you is enough to force you to bow to the racial alter of "Blackness."

Black men who marry white women cite reasons for not marrying black women. This is a radio active topic.

From Emmett Till to Marcus Dixon, from O.J. Simpson to Kobe Bryant, Black men have historically risked their lives, careers, and freedom in exchange for the attention of a white woman.

If the "gone ghetto" comment gets media legs, expect a huge outcry from some circles.

I think the fact he used the term shows that he has a sense of humor and was probably laughing at the time he said it while also thinking to himself "this crazy woman is costing me an arm and a leg"........

As for the SUV accident, I actually think he was running for his life....

Hey, I dated a gal once who had a temper so bad I had to buy a safe to keep my guns locked up so she couldn't get to them.......LOL!

Add to the story the following statement from "the other woman" and one can see the damage that a bogus news story in a supermarket trash tabloid can have on a high profile celebrity.....

The "other woman" named in the story -- Rachel Uchitel -- calls the report "bulls**t."

I understand from other FReeper posts on this, that the developer gave Tiger the house for free, to live there. I bet it was to promote his development... :-)

On the TMZ site you can see a picture of Tiger's wife driving away this morning... with their dog! So I guess Tiger must indeed be "in the dawg house"... and she needs to find a new place for the dog!
