Sorry, you see skin color. You called Tiger Woods a “thug”. Based on what? A thug is a criminal. Someone who commits assault. Who did Tiger Woods beat up? You called him a thug because you don’t like him and he’s black.

At the risk of sticking my nose where it wasn't invited, I'll add to your heated discussion that I consider a thug a guy who cavorts with prostitutes. That is just one of the attributes I assume is in the closet marked "thug." But not the only attribute, of course. So I would go along with r_n on his characterization, and if Blackness enters into the discussion, Tiger has exhibited behavior that parallels that of a rapper as far as women go. But all races have such thugery.

Having said this, I hope that this new, improved Tiger is one that is a good father, husband, and role model. Hope springs eternal; all I need do is look at myself in my younger years.
