Tiger is SOOO busted by his wife...

[Hinermad]

Totally busted. I feel for the guy actually. No one is sitting here saying that cheating is okay, but I can understand. Sometimes strange is hard to turn away. And since his wife is clearly psychotic and violent, maybe he needed it.

If his wife is that violent he needs to be away from her. That doesn't necessarily mean with someone else though. What we need and what we want are two different things; reaching for what we need doesn't give us an excuse to take what we want.

We'll see what kind of a man Tiger really is now. We're not defined by our mistakes, we're defined by how we deal with them.

But if I was going to make that mistake, I'd darned well be more careful about who I made it with. I think I'd go with Ben Franklin's advice. He managed to be famous without a bunch of tawdry stories following him around.

Spirit Airlines has wasted no time capitalizing on the Tiger Woods crash and ensuing scandal. Visitors to the airline's web site are greeted with an "Eye of the Tiger Sale," which promises fares starting at $9 each way. The accompanying graphic shows an SUV crashing into a fire hydrant with a tiger peering out the driver's window. While it is unclear whether it is advisable for an airline, of all industries, to so proudly showcase crash imagery, the ads are already drawing attention online.

same reason more peeps watch ummerikan idol than vote.

Ahem...that's "AMERICAN IDLE"...(not Idol)...

 

[gratus fermentatio]

So Tiger was schtuppin' a waitress; big deal. (yawns) If this was Fred the bus driver, or Jim the garbageman nobody would even blink, much less remember the names after 24 hrs. But it's a famous rich celebrity! Quick, grab a camera & camp out in front of his house! Let's dig up all the dirt we possibly can on him! Come on people, we're fighting a war on 2 fronts, the economy is in the crapper, polititians have us all over a barrel & are constantly trying to poke us where the sun don't shine, and the news media is about to go with non-stop coverage of Tiger Woods & his errant putter. Gimme a break & some real news.

Unless she's a raging psychotic bitch, I can't think of any good reason to cheat on anyone as hot as his wife.

 

[StunnedMonkey]

Turns out that even Hitler is disappointed with Mr. Woods

somebody once told me this; behind every single hot woman on this planet is a man who is bored with having sex with her. . .

 

[kornkob]

I could not care less about his infidelity. The ting I find annoying is the way the police handled it.


If the cops came to my house to 'ask' me about an accident I had and my wife told them I was 'not up to' talking to them, they would not just say 'oh--- that's cool. Well, we'll come back tomorrow'.

 

[StunnedMonkey]

Keep in mind that he wasn't under any legal obligation to speak with the police. For a traffic accident all he's required to supply is license and registration. The police couldn't have forced the issue even if they wanted to.

 

[kornkob]

He wasn't under any legal obligation to speak to them based on the choices they made -- course if it was you or me instead of Tiger and his wife they would have 'found' a way to insinuate themselves into the situation instead of calming walking away using any number of technicalities.

But because they were facing someone famous they didn't work it the same way they'd work it if it was you or me.

 

[StunnedMonkey]

Maybe. On the other hand would the cops really care that much if you or I ran into a fire hydrant with no evidence of DUI? Doubt they'd bother sending cops to your house to chat. You'd just get a citation, like Tiger. I'd say that they spent far MORE time "investigating" the accident than they would have if it was Joe Schmoe.

 

[kornkob]

Typically police don't like it when they are told 'no'. And in the case of you and me, they wouldn't have spent as much time because they wouldn't have just walked away from the scene without talking to the driver in the first place.

You do realize that Florida is like NY in regards to domestic violence they have to investigate when there is any doubt about the incident. They were at the scene and saw his injuries . The injuries have been reported to not look consistent to the accident. And even if the victim refuses to press charges the police can, just had a high profile case like it here in NY.

Typically police don't like it when they are told 'no'. And in the case of you and me, they wouldn't have spent as much time because they wouldn't have just walked away from the scene without talking to the driver in the first place.

They didn't have a chance to talk to him at the scene as reported by the NY Daily News
'Police arrived to find Woods, drifting in and out of consciousness, lying in the street with his wife watching over him, Saylor said. He was taken to a nearby hospital about 10 minutes later."

you don't question someone who may have a head injury at the scene its done at the hospital if they are admitted or at their home . I don't know about Florida but in NY the driver has to fill out an MV-104 accident report if there was an injury or property damage in excess of 1000k in their own words and sign it or they face the risk getting their license suspended. So if you refuse to talk to the investigator you still have to make a statement about the accident.

Sounds like she was listening to too many Carrie Underwood songs, and thought assault and criminal mischief is legal if she had a good reason. I hate that song.

Well, that's what happens when you cheat on Swedish women. If you go dip your weener in the wrong sauce they're trained from birth to transform to mean m****rf***ing killing machines. Had he just done his homework...

Yes... that is called "hit and run".

 

[StunnedMonkey]

I missed the "run" on Tiger's part. He hit a fire hydrant and a tree, and on or near his property, and did not flee anywhere.

 

[Dwain]

Technically, can you own a fire hydrant? On your property or not, the FD always has access. Possibly destruction of public property? One photo I saw made it look like Tiger was across the street when he hit the tree/hydrant. The other made it look like he was on his property. Either way, if she kicked his a$$, she's wrong and needs to pay the price. If he would have kicked her a$$, it would be on. Probably all of us know or know of some woman who stayed with a man that was abusing her because she wouldn't or was afraid to do something about it. Rich people are just as cray as the rest of us.

I wasn't speaking specifically about his accident but I guarantee you that if you hit a fire hydrant the authorities will want to speak with you.

Wow no comments on this video? I thought this was hilarious!!
Have you heard the voicemail?!?!

I doubt it. They'd take my license and registration, and issue a citation. You really think they'd come back and interview me?

The point is that many seem to think that Woods received some preferential treatment with regards to the accident. I content that far MORE attention was paid to it by the cops because of who he was, not less. If it was Joe Schmoe and it was determined to be non-alcohol related then they'd have wrapped that up in 30 minutes.

 

[ChshreCat]

If you were hurt and were carted off to the hospital before they could talk to you... yes, they would want to come see you after you got out.

 

[JVD_X]

If you hit and damaged a fire hydrant or other public property, left the scene, and either self-reported or not, I would bet a patrol car would show up.

This is just getting too freaky. This guy should (a) never have gotten married, and (b) ought to end this one now.

I think we see him "take some time away from golf to concentrate on personal issues" pretty soon. Maybe an obligatory stint to rehab (whether he really needs it or not) for the pain pill thing.

 

[DeathBrewer]

Yet another reason I'm against marriage...or monogamy...or relationships. God, I'm so lonely
