Tiger Woods

December 9th, 2009 by Febe received 8 Comments »

When I first heard about the Tiger Woods car wreck, I have to admit it sounded fishy. I know I’m a bit jaded from my many years of reading about celebrity scandals but this was different. Why would she use a golf club to break the windows in order to get Tiger out? It made no sense to me so I just kept on reading.

Then mistresses started crawling out of the walls like roaches when the lights go out.

And my initial suspicions seemed a more likely scenario but there are no official confirmations on anything that happened that night. Just pure speculation. The speculation that they got into a fight, he drove off, she chased after him, and he crashed into the tree. But again, none of this is confirmed.

And that’s the problem. Tiger has issued two official statements and nothing more. It seems to me he is hoping that it all dies down with time. That’s a risky gamble. It wouldn’t be so bad if mistresses didn’t keep crawling out of the walls with more torrid details.

He should learn lessons from Hugh Grant and David Letterman. After Grant was caught with a prostitute, he famously kept his appearance on Leno and came clean.

That took balls but he did it and the public’s attention moved elsewhere. I understand Tiger’s desire for privacy while he figures this mess out but he has to understand that he is a very big public figure. He has had this sparkling clean image for years and now there is a big gaping whole in it. When the media does not get answers, it’s starts speculating and probing, and it will get worse before it gets better.

If I were him, I’d sit down with Barbara Walters, Oprah or some other big tv person for an all out hour long interview. Come completely clean.

1) You’ll get credit for being open and honest
2) The media will finally have some answers. It will probably flare them up a little bit more but it may speed them up to move on to other stories.

If he doesn’t do an interview, expect the media to find more of your dirty laundry. I hope for him that there isn’t much left.

    I don’t know what he should do in this situation. If it was only one he could have a fighting chance. The difference between Hugh and Tiger is Hugh did it with a dirty prostitute which could be seen as just a fetish or man’s quest for sexual variety. He was married to Elizabeth Hurley for God’s sake. Two porn stars and a celebrity party arranger aren’t quite the same. Honestly is a best policy. The public will forgive him, but his wife has the right and should take him to the cleaners. She won’t get alimony for the rest of her life because they haven’t been married for ten years. Tom Cruise got out with Nicole Kidman just short of ten years for that reason. It just sucks all around. He got married too early in his career.

    Yeah it’s a tough call. Although Hugh and Elizabeth weren’t ever married so their breakup was a lot easier and not expensive.

    Well she may or may not get Alimony, it depends on what was in their Pre-nup. It varies from couple to couple.

    But another problem Tiger has is that he is already starting to loose endorsements. He has lost Gatorade and there are rumors he is going to loose others. He left such a dirty trail Neil! lol. Saying his name in voicemails, sending texts, emails, etc. I agree, he got married waaaay to early.

    I wish he’d spill his guts already. He just needs to get it out there!

    Heya i got to your site by mistake when i was searching bing for something off topic here but i do have say your site is really helpful, like the theme and the content on here…so thanks for me procrastinating from my previous task, lol

  5. The writer of http://www.apoplife.com has written a superior article. I got your point and there is nothing to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not disagree with: People frequently smile for no reason when they’re walking up and down the aisles on a flight I will be back.

  6. Wasn’t David superbowl ad funny?!Really cool to see him and Leno atleast in the same room again.
