agree about the judges, but since no one bothers with checks and balances on them we'll never see it.
like it or not though, tiger is a role model for kids, and what he does, on and off the course, reflects on him.
If it wasn't for the public's need to know and the media's OVERwillingness to serve the public's needs, it would have remained a private matter, as it should have. I think it's none of our business and am sick of hearing about what Tiger Woods "owes" perfect strangers. I purposely missed his apology this morning because I don't feel he owes me one. I don't think his apology was important enough to interrupt regular progamming on network television. ESPN, maybe.
Since the story broke, I change the channel whenever they start harping on Tiger and his infidelities. I didn't even open the link at the beginning of this thread. I saw a man tearing him up on ESPN not 30 minutes ago because he felt the statement/apology wasn't sincere enough. I immediately changed the channel after a few choice words of my own, but WTH?? Was this guy serious? I'm sick to death of it. Leave the man alone, he made mistakes, he is human. Maybe if he wasn't under so much scrutiny he could get back to what is important, rebuilding his trust and relationship with, at least, his children and maybe his wife, if that's even possible. None of it is possible if he constantly has to keep answering for his actions to us, complete strangers.
I don't blame Elin if she never takes him back. He betrayed her, numerous times and with some really trashy girls. I wouldn't take him back, but the entire family deserves the respect of trying to heal their wounds in private and in their own time. He is a father to two young children, for crying out loud! I realize that he should have thought of these things before making these terribly damaging choices, but why is it any of our business? Why do we need to know everything about everyone? People are starving and uneducated and unhealthy at home and worldwide and this is what we interrupt programming for? I mean, c'mon. Tiger Woods doesn't owe me a damn thing. He owes his family and ONLY his family.
Sorry for the rant, everyone. I told myself I wasn't going to comment on anything about Tiger and his shortcomings, but I just couldn't take it anymore!! This has been gettin' on my nerves for the better part of three months now and today, I guess, was my snapping point. Mostly, because I think it's highly disrespectful to his wife and children. And, as always, it's JMO
