But I work in his factory... and I curse the life I'm living, and I curse my poverty... and I wish that I could be, oh, I wish that I could be.... Richard Corey....

I have been, and will continue to be, a huge Tiger Fan. Not because of who he is off the course, but because of his work ethic and dedication to excellence on the course.

For those of you who feel like Tiger "owed" you an explanation or don't agree with his "moral compass" please remember what Charles Barkley said, "athletes should not be role models, parents should be."

I would love to see what history would be like if the internet were around when some of our "heroes" were in their prime. Babe Ruth, John F. Kennedy, and countless other public figures have "failed" in the eyes of the public. We are a forgiving society and I think it is time to be fair.

Does Tiger make Millions of dollars? Of course he does, does he make that money because of his "squeaky clean image"? Probably not. He makes bank because he is the best player on the planet. PERIOD! Kobe Bryant was charged with rape and we (society) forgave him.

What many of you fail to recognize is that there is no way any of us could possibly imagine what it would be like to live in the spotlight like he has. For those of you throwing stones, do you think all of the decisions you make would be the same if there was someone watching you 24/7?

Tiger has raised millions of dollars for charity on his own and the PGA Tour has donated millions more because of Tiger Woods. The world is a far better place with him than without him. Can we all learn a valuable lesson from this? Absolutely. Can we all learn more from his charity and game? Absolutely. Should we all just leave him alone to deal with this in the private manner he has requested? ABSOLUTELY.

I can't believe I have to be the first one to point out the hypocrisy of you posting on this thread!!! You're no angel :angel1: Never mind - somehow Bagger has taken down the emoticon where the Monkey pulled something out of his ... - and I've lost my steam on this post- what's this place coming to?

Goats don't count . . . . . fool.

I'll just agree to disagree with a few of you. We need to lighten this thread up.

How about Tigers new Christmas Card? This one is for MikeO.

Oops - I need to figure out how to put up pictures without the LBG watermark on them.

I agree witcha to a point . . . but dude . . . he was out gaming co-edz when his ole lady was PREGGERZ . . . that's pretty hardcore. He don't owe me an explanation . . . I'm not sure there is a good one. That's what I don't get the dude can do all this hard stuff and be dedicated and meticulous, hold his breath under water for 4 minutes, bench like 3-fiddy . . . but he can't fend off some skank with fake cannolis? I'll say this in my day . . . I was way way way better at Eldrick at NOT being able to score with chicks than he is now at golf . . . I was like 7th degree black belt at not getting chicks. it's not all that hard to keep the cow in the barn.

Who stole the Monkey?
 

Nice - try to change the subject - Monkey Stealer!:pale:

I'm enjoying a great post from Daryl and then you barge in about a missing Monkey.

Hey - Are you snowbound or somethin? I didn't move the monkey! Don't put that on my back. Worse yet you accuse me of stealing the precious monkey, as though it was in your possession and I actually wanted it for my very own.

I'll go dig for the dirty little primate as long as you don't point your stinky finger in my direction.&H

You know, I am not going to agree with what Tiger might have done because, I have never cheated on my wife even though we are now divorcing, if that is the case which it seems to be Tiger admitting. I do think he stood up and showed balls by his statement today and believe he did the right thing. He is human not perfect "no one is' and as time goes on this will all fizzle away. If there is a stone to be cast here other than Tiger I, believe that it should be @ the slut "Home Wreckers" that knew Tiger was married with kids and still acted! Men have a tendancy sometimes to not think things through but, women are supose to be smarter and like to plot! Not that all women are bad just seems Tiger got sold out even though he was in the wrong by the the ones who now for some reason need lawyers, Hummmmm!

I just think it is BS, really! If it was Joe "The Plummer" no one would know or care to be honest. T-Dub did what he needed to do and that was hard in my opinion he, will get past this but it is going to take some time. I just hope him and Elin can work things out for the sake of there children I, know that is not always the right thing but ... See Morewhen you have kids you try as hard as you can and if it does not work well, @ least you know there was a effot made. Me and my wife got married because of our daughter but we are just to different people and dod not want our daughter to see us argue so, we are divorcing! Atleast it is on good terms thats the most important part so we can still do things together with our little girl just, not as a couple. Tiger will be fine and Elin as well no matter what happens...

Tiger's been getting texts from Shane Warne - those in the USA may have to google that name - in how to deal with the press.

It is a sad situation. It is how he deals with it that will make or break the man.
