Exactly right. It sounds exactly like the usurper in chief. They are both narcisstic personalities to the max.
Nonetheless and given Tiger's upbringing and early success, it is out of character for him. The lure of celebrity is powerful; with it comes a form of universal adoration which is not the same as love: the latter completes the soul while the former has been known to empty it.
Could be, though Earl wasn't that great a father to the kids from his first marriage. I'm sure a lot of it had to do with his service requirements.
Then Earl did a tour in Korea. I was never stationed there, but I heard the stories. Later, Earl retired from the Army, and spent his time raising Tiger.
It didn't hurt that Tiger was under a management contract while in high school, and Earl earned a handsome income for "training fees."
Tiger's been gaming the system for almost 20 years.
its called marketing
It seems to me like Woods game has dropped off in the last year.
A brief stupid fling maybe it could be worked out for sake of kids etc but scores of gals and all the other stuff.
This marriage was probably dead in the water from way back
Tiger has to nut up. Make a deal with wifey and be a dad for his kids.
He'll do fine with his cash...good lord...I can't imagine having that sort of security.
The children are the real losers.
any outcome that has them work it out would surprise me.
I got around in my youth but I've been with just one woman exclusively since September 19th 1997.
which doesn't compare to lifelong marriages but it's damned good for me...we'll be married till one of us planted
Especially since the crowds are so *talky* these days and like to yell out. You just know that someone is preparing, right now, what they will say when Tiger is back on the course. I still remember the "yabba dabba doo!" guy, and it was right after that, that I stopped watching golf for good.
“...his decision had consequences he may not have fully considered.”
Absolutely. This is the first time that he touched the stove and got burned. But I have much more sympathy for a toddler who learns that lesson than an adult who has grown up in the spotlight from the beginning.
Freegards
"Obviously you are not a golfer"
That's an idea I'd never considered. That would explain why he's so DIFFERENT from the other players. He's so aggressive!
I point to steroid abuse because that is what ROID RAGE is all about:
Angry and violent outbursts over the slightest things.
What?
So Woods missed a put?
Big deal.
Jack Niklaus missed a few puts in his day, and he never once cursed and threw/smashed golf clubs in total disregard for the safety of others.
Niklaus is a gentleman, which is why I respect him over Woods.
These controversies surrounding Woods only strengthens my contempt for him.
Woods is no gentleman.
Sounds like zerobama.
I just read somewhere that Tiger's father called Tiger "the chosen one". Which is what Obama has been called (as well as "the anointed one").
"Cheating" is simply a term invented by women to control men's sexuality. Tiger can sleep with whomever he wants, Nordic golddiggers notwithstanding. This woman should be deported from the USA in hadcuffs - she is a violent felon.
I hadn’t thought about a green card “running out”. Is it only valid if one is employed or married?
How long ago did his father die?
His steroid use has been speculated on for some time, so this isn’t really new news.
