Tiger Woods Injured in Car Crash

**Beach Runner** · 12-11-2009, 06:04 PM

Tiger Woods will take an indefinite break from golf, says his website and reported on NBC News tonight. Really so sad that someone so intelligent and talented could be so stupid to risk everything for a little "skank."

I think the unofficial count is up to 11, BR. That's a whole lotta "skank"

**scooterbug44** · 12-11-2009, 07:21 PM

IMO 9+ mistresses and an escort service on your payroll is much more than "a little skank".

And it's a sad fact that while being an adulterer hurts your endorsements in the short run, there are a lot of rapists, man whores, adulterers, and convicted criminals raking in millions in the sports world.

"good things come to good people"....so the saying goes. Tiger will get his due. I feel sorry for his wife, and children, but not for Tiger. People make "mistakes"...but if it is 12 (and counting) times, no matter how much fame and fortune they possess, they deserve their fate. I think he epitomizes greed, self-importance, and complete indifference to that which is decent.

What is mind blowing to me is he never used condoms.

WTF????

He's an idiot & as Mr. JR just said, he effed up. He could've been the greatest sports figure of all time.

I agree with happy2Bme: what goes around, comes around.

**aggieb** · 12-11-2009, 08:04 PM

on dateline.

i just can't get over the perkins waitress. c'mon tiger.

**Santiago** · 12-11-2009, 09:10 PM

We're all getting a little laugh at Tiger's "skank" as Beach Runner calls it but there is a very serious question that remains to be answered. Who got more skank, Tiger or Wilt Chamberlain?

Funny how times have changed. This sort of behavior actually actually served to create the legend of the greatest sports figure of all time, Babe Ruth.

was babe married? Big diff IMO.

**Bronze All Over** · 12-12-2009, 04:01 PM

I thought about his dad who just died last year. His dad had devoted his entire life to Tiger, who started playing golf while practically a toddler. Bet his mama's not happy!

**LuciferSam** · 12-12-2009, 06:03 PM

Yes, twice. He "flaunted his "adultery shamelessly". He separated from his first wife due to him cheating. She later died in a fire and he remarried. Read "Baseball Babylon".

Per the supermarket tabloid we saw today there is a love child (given the sheer numbers and lack of contraceptives figured that one was overdue) and a sex tape too!

**Teresa** · 12-15-2009, 06:45 PM

I don't understand how tiger kept all this from the media for so long. very bizarre. the story just keeps unfolding and now its almost laughable. but not quite.

**scooterbug44** · 12-15-2009, 06:51 PM

Corporations and $$.

The Nat'l Enquirer would have broken the story years ago if it wasn't quashed by the parent company who wanted Tiger on a magazine cover to boost circulation.

Canoehead said it was well known in the PGA. (She knows all the dirt.)

**Alicia Leonard** · 12-15-2009, 06:55 PM

OK, I'll admit it. I feel totally duped by Tiger. Not because his personal life is any of my business(it's so not) although I would argue that privacy is the cost of fame, I feel duped because I always thought this guy was a clean-cut, family guy. I so got him wrong.

Reaally??. I assume most professional athletes are out messing around and that they consider it to be one of the perks. As for Tiger I think it's written all over him. No surprises here at all.

I am so with you on this.

Honestly, when I heard about the 2:30 a.m. crash, I thought there HAD to be a good explanation, like he had to go to WalMart or out for ice cream for Elin or something.

I thought, at worst, it was Ambien sleepdriving.

And then up until a couple of days ago I was analyzing his behavior, saying to myself that it is his way of dealing with the pressure, and (maybe this is a stretch) the fact that none of his women are either black or Asian is a sign of self-loathing, and that he needs help and Elin may as well just walk and let him pick up the pieces from his tortured existence, without which, by the way, he would have never rung up 14 majors because that is part of the package.

But THEN ... THEN I hear that he is a notoriously bad tipper. And often rude to "the help" when he is out and about. There have been many reported incidences of this over the years.

So, it turns out he is just a bad guy. And now dead to me.

Barry Bonds anyone?

I just always found him to be a little nerdy and didn't think of him as a player.

Possibly because we remember him so vividly as a nerdy 19-year-old. Between that, and the fact that SI declared him The Second Coming and the Sportsman of the Year in 1996, well, I guess that was too much to live up to.

I know what you mean exactly.

There are a couple of things that aren't clear at this time. It may be a banned substance from the sports world, but I don't know if there is anything criminal about a licensed physician administering it and a patient accepting such treatment. So with that in mind let's look at the moral implications. A lot of substances such as steroids and growth hormone have very effective therapeutic value for people with serious injuries. Anabolic steroids were invented during WWII and were used to help heal the injuries of wounded vets. Well Tiger had a very serious knee injury. If I were in his position I might just say PGA rules be damned and go for it if there was nothing criminal involved. The health of my joints is more important than some dumb game.

Interesting, one of my friend's husband is big into the sports scene and the PGA and he said he had heard things prior to this too.

I mean he was booking connecting rooms to his when he was on tour, others had to have known.

I too bought his act.

Tiger Woods controversy: Being inked to performance-enhancing drugs would be Tiger Woods' worst-case scenario -- OrlandoSentinel.com
Mike Bianchi SPORTS COMMENTARY

December 15, 2009

Now we should care.

More than ever before

Forget about the immorality of Tiger Woods' multiple mistresses.

What's much more damaging is the potential illegality of his multiple majors.

Tiger Woods cheating on his wife is ultimately between him and her.

But Tiger Woods potentially cheating on the game of golf is definitively between him and all of us sports fans who have cheered him, revered him and marveled at how he is so much better than everybody else on the PGA Tour.

Maybe now we know the reason why.

Maybe Tiger Woods is simply the Barry Bonds of golf � and Jack Nicklaus is Hank Aaron.

The latest saga in Tiger's meteoric fall from grace came Tuesday when the story broke about one of Tiger's doctors being arrested and suspected of providing performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) to elite athletes. According to the New York Times, the FBI is investigating Canadian physician Dr. Anthony Galea, who was found with human growth hormone in his bag at the U.S.-Canada border in late October.

I know, I know, nothing has been proven and we're supposed to give Tiger the benefit of the doubt. We're supposed to assume the best in our professional athletes, right?

Sorry, but that philosophy went out the window six mistresses and seven steroids scandals ago.

The PGA Tour, for once in its life, should be proactive on an issue involving performance-enhancing drugs. Commissioner Tim Finchem should immediately announce a full-scale investigation into Tiger's relationship with this controversial doctor. And if it's found that Tiger has been using illegal PEDs, all of golf's governing bodies should strip him of his major titles. Nicklaus, like Aaron, should not have his monumental milestone (18 major victories) surpassed by a cheater.

Remember the before-and-after pictures of lanky Bonds as a young baseball player and then the bulked-up, hulked-up Bonds after he began using that BALCO-manufactured "flaxseed oil"? Well, look at pictures of Tiger as the skinny young golfer and compare them to the thicker, bigger, sculpted, chiseled Tiger of today.

Doesn't it make you wonder?

His sponsors are dropping like flies, he is going to have to get back to work to pay that off.

I am sorry that he is expected to come out, in the middle of rehab, and make a huge apology to the entire world once again for his actions (I'm sure it is part of recover and his own PR plan but it is also a response to the public's huge interest). He made really bad decisions as a sex addict, but he didn't friggin commit murder. His crime is against his wife and kid. Tiger - go back to rehab and on with your life. See ya on TV kicking some ass on the golf course.

Yes, I think Tiger is a dumbass and has royally screwed up his family life. and he has put himself in the gutter - becoming much like the trash he was dating. But that is for him to deal with.

Also, all the women who have come out and reported sordid details are pathetic . I'm so not interested. i guess they are making desperately needed cash cutting deals with the media. gross.

Tiger Woods Announces Return To Sex

February 19, 2010 | Issue 46•07 Onion Sports

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FL—In an announcement highly anticipated by sex fans around the world, Tiger Woods told a small gathering of reporters, family, and lovers Friday that the most dominant fornicator on the planet would soon return to sex.
