Ditto. Nike may be sorry they ever got into bed with Tiger.

+1. I couldn't care less if he's having an affair with Jim Furyk.
Jim Furyk obviously doesn't care because yesterday he won his first tournament in 2 years when he won the Chevron World Challenge. McDowell who came second had replaced Tiger.
We discussed this over a few pints the last day - if I was the World No.1 golfer and had it all and gorgeous women were throwing themselves at me constantly, would I be able to resist?? I'll be honest and say I dont think so!! It would be rude not to...Don't tell Mrs Teatime I said that though....

'Fraid so. Team Tiger are equally guilty. After all, someone there facilitated the adultry. Booking rooms, paying for flights, getting clingy girls away. But most of all, the fawning public for believing such a load of baloney. Do people not realise that to get to the top you've got to be ruthlessly ambitious. Look at the first word here "ruthlessly".
Main Entry: ruth·less
Pronunciation: \ˈrüth-ləs also ˈru̇th-\
Function: adjective
Date: 14th century
: having no pity : merciless, cruel <a ruthless tyrant>
— ruth·less·ly adverb
— ruth·less·ness noun
The soft smile, ready handshake, doting husband, beaming father merely swell the coffers of anotherwise run of the mill bloke. The hype that ropes people into adoring everything that "sports personalities" do is incredible. The herd mentality takes over after SKY has done the initial puffing. Jeez! The fact that the guy can roll small balls into holes better than most should not lead to deified status.

Nike kept pestering him to 'Just do it' & he certainly did, in fact he has hit several double & tribble bogeys since.
Gillette kept telling him, that their product was 'The best a man can get', however I don't think Tiger believed them.
I believe that both Nike & Gillette are looking to distance themselves from Tiger Woods. However I've heard that Durex are looking to agree a new commercial deal with Tiger.

How many black women was Tiger involved with?
None as far as I know.

This is the guy who dressed Fuzzy Zoeller down for being a perceived racist and, the following morning, Fuzzy lost his $1m contract with K-mart!
From Wikipedia........
Zoeller is often jokingly critical of his colleagues on the golf course, for instance, asking "Where are the windmills and animals?" on a newly designed golf course, or heckling Craig Stadler, saying, "Nice clods, Stadler. Did you get those at a Buster Brownfire sale?"[1] For much of his career, Zoeller was most famous for waving a white towel in mock surrender from the fairway of the 72nd hole of the 1984 U.S. Open, after Greg Norman holed a long putt on the 72nd green to tie Zoeller for the tournament lead. At the end of the 18-hole playoff the next day between Norman and Zoeller (which Zoeller won by a whopping 8 strokes), Norman waved a white towel himself, returning the joke.
But at the 1997 Masters tournament, Zoeller made an off-hand remark regarding Tiger Woods. After finishing tied for 34th place with a score of 78, Zoeller, referring to the following year's Master's Club Champion's Dinner, for which the defending champion selects the menu, said, "He's doing quite well, pretty impressive. That little boy is driving well and he's putting well. He's doing everything it takes to win. So, you know what you guys do when he gets in here? You pat him on the back and say congratulations and enjoy it and tell him not to serve fried chicken next year. Got it." Zoeller then smiled, snapped his fingers, and walked away before turning and adding, "or collard greens or whatever the hell they serve."[2] K-Mart and Dunlop ceased sponsoring Zoeller after the incident.[3][4]
"I know Fuzzy, and it was obvious to me that he was attempting to be funny," number-one ranked golf pro Tom Lehman said. "He probably would have said the same thing to Tiger's face and they both would have yukked it up...[But] it wasn't the best timing, and it wasn't in good taste. It's not appropriate."[2]
"I've been on the tour for 23 years and anybody who knows me knows that I am a jokester," Zoeller said. "It's too bad that something I said in jest was turned into something it's not. But I didn't mean anything by it and I'm sorry if I offend anybody. If Tiger is offended by it, I apologize to him, too. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Tiger as a person and an athlete."
Zoeller later offered an apology directly to Woods, which Woods accepted.[5]
Zoeller's endorsement value quickly turned around, and he continues to be one of the most popular professionals on the Champions Tour. On June 1, 2009, he launched a new venture, "Fuzzy's Ultra Premium Vodka."[6]
Would Fuzzy have lost his contract if he'd had sex with more than ten black women? Probably.
Is Tiger Woods a racist?

Can I just ask.....I was speaking to a (male) friend about Tiger and his opinion was that all men would do it if they could get away with it. Not talking Tiger standards, just if a gang of blokes were away that they would have a one night thing (even if they were married or coupled) if they thought it would never be discovered. And especially if they were in Tigers shoes, as Teatime above says, not sure they would be able to resist all those gorgeous women. I personally think Tiger has shown his true colours and is a sleazebag. He has embarrassed his wife in front of the world for no reason. If they were not getting on, just leave and then who cares what he does.
I was adamant that most men would not, even if they would never be found out, but that if they were happy in their own relationships, there would be no need to.
What do other guys think

Maybe all men like him.
I wouldn't. It's not simply that I'm happy in my relationship (which I am) nor is it about 'need' IMO. It's about control and respect. I have been in positions where I could have taken advantage of offers/situations but didn't because I knew I would regret it and would be unable to look my wife in the eye again. It's a primal urge and like resisting punching someone out of anger or something, it must be controlled.

Oh come on Caveat, you dont know whether you would or not. Look I don't know who your favourite porn star is but imagine you, a black man, has just come from behind to win the Augusta Masters (again) in a dramatic finish with some lad shouting "You the Man!!" every time you lashed your ball towards the hole...and later that night, your favourite porn star comes to your room (again) and tells you she wants to re-create your favourite blue scene, with her girlfriend, are you telling me that you don't get out Big Bertha and drive it...etc etc... or do you say "Oh not for me, happily married, please control your primal urge, early night for me, cup-o-tea and brack etc..."

Sorry to disappoint you but most men would if a beautiful woman or not so beautiful offered herself on a plate
( assuming that they could get away with it .It's fairly common knowledge that many golfers on Spanish golfing trips often hunt in packs and being out of sight , out of mind takes over.

Happily married for twelve years and never strayed, although to be fair, "lovely girls" aren't exactly flinging themselves at me every time I walk out of my house. But I think the trick is to accept that drink, women and opportunity are a lethal combination and if you want to remain faithful, bail out before the three mix. If you see a situation arising where you and the lovely girl are likely to be left alone and pi$$ed in the hotel residents' bar, bail out before it gets to that point.
Is that right levelpar? interesting. Hows your own golf game?
Caveat, I hear Jessica Simpson is the latest on Tiger's list. Soon he will have the full 18.
It's not all bad though - Tiger was today named 'Athlete of the Decade' voted on by the Associated Press.
