Divea, I highly doubt Tiger’s PR guys had anything to do with getting the couple to stay together. That’s taking the cynical angle just a bit too far, IMHO.[/quote]
:raspberry: Never said I was right or logical. PR guy’s have a lot to do with being seen together strategically.

How many people would have said that if a woman spent time away from her children to sleep with a million men. Sleeping around is not just sex, it is so much effort. Calling, lying, finding rendezvous zones, commuting to and fro, covering up, buying gifts, the whole gambit. If a woman invested so much time, effort, money, and reputation to sleep around, her kids would be taken from her in 2 seconds flat. With all his touring, screwing and gaming, I don’t think he was doing any parenting.

I am not a divorce advocate, but somehow living happily after such a scandal is highly unlikely. However, raising poor screwed up kids is worse than raising rich screwed up kids.

Apologies have been accepted, it seems, by an ever demanding public:

[quote]In his wildest dreams, Tiger Woods couldn’t have hoped for a better return.

Emerging from five months of tabloid hell, Woods recorded his best-ever opening round at the Masters on Thursday, a four-under-par 68 which left him in a tie for seventh, two shots off the lead of the reborn Fred Couples.
At the end of an eventful day, even Woods was surprised.

“A little bit, yeah,” he acknowledged.

But as good as his start to the tournament was, the tone of the Woods comeback wasn’t determined by his three birdies or the two eagles, but by the fans.

He was embraced, encouraged and applauded. We saw Thursday that forgiveness is possible; that people are willing to give Tiger Woods a second chance.

“The people, I haven’t heard them cheer this loud in all my years here,” he said.

“So it certainly helped keep my spirits up because I was certainly missing a bunch of putts out there. It helps when you get the crowd like that.

“I said thank you all the way. I was saying thank you all day. The people were just incredible, incredible all day.”

And maybe that was the real lesson of Thursday for Woods: that redemption isn’t a one-way street.

He has his part to do, too.

As Augusta National chairman Billy Payne sternly said the day before, “with fame and fortune comes responsibility, not invisibility."
Woods needed to know, Payne said, that he wasn’t playing golf just for himself and that “every kid he passes on the course wants his swing, but would settle for his smile."

Woods clearly took the message to heart. I’ve never seen him smile so much, tip his cap to the galleries and generally acknowledge the fans like he did Thursday.

He was a man in search of acceptance.

Forgiveness for what? What did he do to “people?” A second chance at what? Being a golf champion? “People” can stop him from being good at golf?
What a load of shite! :roflmao:

64

He didn’t do anything to me, and it is pointless to ask for my forgiveness or a second chance. YAWN! The proper audience are his family and his sponsors.

Please read my initial statement, seasoned with irony and a bit of humor…

Rubbish! If you were a half black, half Thai millionaire with bad dress sense you could easily have been tarred with the same brush. There but by the grace of god. Cherish that apology! Be lavish with your forgiveness.

I’m not going to forgive him. He promised me ages ago he’d help me with some pipes that needed lagging and he still hasn’t showed up. :fume:

68

Did I? Did we?? When?

Maybe he should just tell them all the eff off. It’s not like he needs the sponsors money. He can just come out and say I have a big swinging dick and a big swinging golf club. Plenty of woman ready to sleep with him, no one asked them to do that did they?
