Tiger Woods Controversy


Tiger Woods has been in the spotlight non-stop lately and obviously not for good reasons. As you all know Tiger got in a car accident outside his home on Thanksgiving evening after allegedly getting in an argument with his wife Elin. The original story was that Elin saved him by smashing the back windshield with Tiger's five iron. Now we all know this isn't what happened. I mean come on, all she had to do was open the door and drag him out if he was seriously injured. Considering he was going under 23 mph since his airbag didn't deploy probably suggests that he didn't need "saved". Recently voicemails and text messages have been discovered revealing that Tiger had a couple of mistresses. This explains why his wife Elin would chase after him with a golf club and later move out of their enormous Orlando house. My take is Tiger simply couldn't resist the constant women throwing themselves at him since he is famous and loaded for that matter. This makes me think different about Tiger and athletes as well. If golden boy Tiger Woods is getting caught cheating on his wife then other top names athletes might be as well. I just think these athletes shouldn't be getting married if they are going to sleep with other women. Just don't get married if that's what you want to do! Marriage isn't meant to be temporary. Marriage is a permanent bond to be faithful for life. Do it for the right reasons.

  1. I totally agree with your conclusion, Max. [Sean's comment, while concise, is not exactly what sponsors want to be associated with]. Tiger traded on his image as a "family man," and father. That is what makes me disgusted about all the news that has come out about his affairs. He may be able to recover in terms of his golf, but I don't see how his marriage can survive.
