Tiger, Tiger, Tiger and the Today Show

So the facts seem to be (at this point) that;
1) Tiger Woods has had an affair for at least 3 years with one woman
2) Tiger was so worried his wife would find out that he asked one woman to change her voicemail (quick interlude here.....Tiger's wife was checking his mobile phone...Is this normal behaviour in a secure marriage or rather the actions of a wife that knows her husband is cheating on her?..anyway)
3)2 other women have come out claiming affairs...That is 3 women in 2 days....hmmmm me thinks there are more to come out
4)Tiger crashed his car at 2:25am..Was he a) deserate for a magnum icecream, b) he wanted to get an early start at the golf course or c)his wife had found out about one or more of his affairs and she wanted to smack him with a 5 iron.

Fast forward to the Today Show on Ch9 this morning. Karl and Deborah whatishername from the Woman's Weekly were chatting about the "Tiger incident"..Ok family loving Karl and defender of women's rights Deborah...let fly.

Deborah said (words to this effect) " Tiger has lots of groupies throwing themselves at him every where he goes so perhaps he just gave in to temptation". ie those bad, nasty girls tempting Tiger...And to tempt him so forcefully for him to have a 3 year affair...that is some tempting. You horrible women!

Come on now Karl...Come through for family values..

Karl (words to this effect).."Tiger has had a very controlled upbringing since his early childhood and maybe this is part of him breaking out of the control".. What the %#$^...So Tiger's therapist sat him down and said "listen son I know you have had a controlled life and sure this life has delivered you world wide acclaim and about $1b but to deal with this horrid past you need to go out and sleep with a bunch of women..I know this is against your family values but Tiger I must insist...this will help you get better".

Also did I miss something...when did Karl get a Phd in Psychology??

Both fully paid up members of the "Tiger can do what ever he wants" club, Karl and Deborah then chatted about how it was kind of normal for famous people to sleep around. Karl even made a comparison of Tiger to Shane Warne...Now that is a low blow....except Karl was trying to be complementary!.

In summary these esteemed media commentators believe that Tiger had such an appallingly controlled childhood such that when he was confronted with those temptresses he had no option but to screw their brains out...Poor, poor Tiger.

How about this version.

Tiger (like many famous people before him) maybe used his power and influence to chase down any woman he desired.....often I have found that fidelity and respect for wives and children do not matter to famous people...Reminds me of a conversation I once had with a married man who is now head of one of our top professional services firms...He slept around also...in his mind..I kid you not...hand on heart...he felt it was his duty to, as he put it ,share his love around...He had so much love to share and he felt it his responsibility to share the love...Hmmmmmm how about sharing love in the true sense but keeping your dick in your pants....

Anyway the last word has to go to Tiger...he (on his website) apologises for his "transgressions" and feels it is not fair for the media to scutinise him at this time....

Firstly a transgression is something like a drunken one night stand...It is not a 3 year affair with one woman and affairs with at least 2 others....Affairs that required day to day deceit and day to day planning and organisation...listen to the voicemail he left one woman if you want to fully understand intricate planning of deceitful actions...Tiger's minders surely had to know what was going on as well..This was not a transgression but a pattern of deceit going on for years.

As for the demand for privacy...Sorry that ship sailed whentakes the hundreds of $M in sponsorhsip money..they have decided to live a public life for money so they can't cry now that they have been found out.

As to Tiger's statement about working on his behaviour....Funny how we is only doing this now that the affairs are public.

As for Karl and Deborah you should both be ashamed for the positions you took..Tiger Woods actions are nothing less that deceitful and poor form. There is no excuse for what he has done and he should accept whatever punishment awaits..To try and provide excuses for this appalling behaviour says alot about your morals and ethics.....and I had thought you were a decent guy Karl....
