Perhaps some of these guys have strong moral/religious beliefs and do have an opinion

You're grasping at straws here! IF these guys had strong moral/religious beliefs - they would most definitely keep 'their opinion' to themselves.

I'm not saying players should be speaking but if they're asked and they do comment I see nothing wrong with it.

Comment? Try 'it's none of my business'.

"Comment? Try 'it's none of my business'."

"Jack Nicklaus said the fallout over Tiger Woods ' car crash and allegations of extramarital affairs is "none of my business."

Jack has probably pissed off FR's beloved Frantzie. lol

Ben Crane is a deeply religious guy. Have a little sympathy for him even if he is a religious nut.

Crane takes a leap of faith on PGA Tour

"Crane has been busy this offseason. He spent a week in New Orleans with Heather, his parents, his brother and sister-in-law, a nephew and a cousin, on a mission trip to clean up after Hurricane Katrina. "There was more devastation than you can ever imagine," he says. "It was overwhelming. We were gutting houses and nothing could be saved. I took a photo album out of one of the houses, handed it to the [owner] and said, 'I'm sorry.' It just rips your heart out to think everything they have is gone. I think our group got more out of it than the people we were helping. We were so blessed to be doing the work."

"Crane wears well in a secular environment because, as McQuitty says, he's not in your face with his beliefs. If you ask, though, he'll tell you where he's coming from. "I want to be the biggest overachiever [ever], for sure," Crane says. "My wife and I talk all the time. Ephesians 3:20 says that by the grace of God, you can do infinitely more than you dare to dream or ask or imagine. That's the verse I carried in my yardage book during BellSouth. Without my relationship with God, I wouldn't be on tour. Through my relationship with the Lord, God gives you a sense of peace, strength and courage to do things greater than we're capable of on our own. That's when we know we're in the will of God, when we are doing things that are greater than us."

Shut up Ben. Tiger Woods is the image the PGA wants. It is none of your business.
