Tiger seriously hurt in car crash

[Bart]

Hold on! Hold on! "officers found the golfer unconscious!" "He was unconscious for about six minutes!" "He was in and out of conciousness!" But he was released from the hospital?? I'm no doctor but dont they keep you over night for a head injury that bad??? But if the unconciousness was from drugs or alcohol? "WELL"!!

Was he given a sobriety test? What about a breathalyzer or blood sample? From what I've read he's turned the cops away three times for questioning. Very suspicious behavior.

 

[Menelik]

Well it now looks like we may never know what happened.

Try refusing to speak to cops one time, and see what happens. You'll be lucky not be tazed and beaten, if not shot. This is a truly bizarre incident, but I'm sure we'll never know what really happened. All celebrities are above the law, so no investigation will take place.

There will be no charges, and no suspended sentence/community service.

Hopefully this is the beginning of the end for Tiger Woods and his career on the PGA Tour. A few more injuries, a bunch of distractions off the links...I sure would like to see him out of the game in a year or two.

Tiger, the GodKing himself has spoken on the matter"¦shouldn't that in itself be legally binding, trustworthy, and able to bypass the standard legal proceedings that we lowly serfs would certainly endure? I think so.

GodMan posted a brief, ambiguous message on his official website which basically explained absolutely nothing. I found it very interesting that he felt the need to specifically deflect the "rumors"Â￾ about the alleged spat (cheating) with his wife by saying that "my wife acted courageously, she saved me from the wreckage, blah blah."Â￾ It was the most obvious attempt to distract the media and legions of Gatorade-swilling jock-huffers who adore this cretin into thinking his little whore is some sort of hero"¦when any unbiased 10-year old could see that this strange situation was most likely domestic violence between The One and his affirmative action white wife.


Here is what Tiger posted:

"As you all know, I had a single-car accident earlier this week, and sustained some injuries. I have some cuts, bruising and right now I'm pretty sore.

This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I'm human and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again.

This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible.

The only person responsible for the accident is me. My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false.
This incident has been stressful and very difficult for Elin, our family and me. I appreciate all the concern and well wishes that we have received. But, I would also ask for some understanding that my family and I deserve some privacy no matter how intrusive some people can be."Â￾

A "private matter?" Yeah, I'm sure the "authorities" where I live would permit me to use that excuse...especially around Thanksgiving, where cops are on high alert for drunk drivers (even though I don't drink).

Does anyone else appreciate the irony that his wife allegedly attacked him with a golf club?

He went over a fire hydrant then hit a tree. Tiger's made a lot of good drives in his day but this must be the first time he's ever hit the water and then a tree in one drive.Edited by: Matra1

Tiger is the caste whores greatest creation. He was taken in very early and his entire image has been sculpted, I'm even one to believe his woman was chosen for him so it would create even more buzz amongst the DWFs. Frankly I think him like other top golfers to be monomaniacal nutters, barely able to socialize outside of their little circles. He can barely speak and yet he was set to be "president of the world" by his dementia suffering father.

 

[white is right]

I normally don't care about celebrity gossip at all, zilch, but Woods has had a colossal teflon shield built around him by the government-media complex, so it will be difficult not to follow all the details, sordid or otherwise, that come out of this.  The media annointed the one-fourth Negro Woods as a full-blooded "African American" and the almost iron rule of thumb has been that seemingly every black sports star screws up big time sooner or later.  So if Woods has messed up then it will be a true "black mark" for the ongoing Obama administration drama in America's Grand Race Relations Experiment.

It's true.He's one of the most famous athletes,but we never heard anything about his girlfriends when he was in his 20's.That's a big part of media coverage, except strangely for him.

I was thought Baldrick's mother was his girlfriend in his 20's. He only hugged her and his his Zen like father. In North America being tight like that with your parents past 18 is now seen as weird(but is quite common in other parts of the world).

I'm picturing a scene from War of the Roses, with a more ethnic leading man....

It's a shame no one has any privacy anymore, but in the case of Teflon Shield Boy, I don't feel quite as bad:

Several other women are coming forward claiming they had affairs with Tiger Woods, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.


What's more, one of these women claims to have proof in the form of voice mails from the golfing great. The voice mails are said to be explosive.

I'm now wondering if Tiger's squeaky clean image is beyond repair, if any of these other rumors are proven to be true.

On another note, the way this thing appears to be taking a life of its own, the conspiracy theorist in me wonders if there's an attempt by some behind-the-scenes figures to tear him down, after they built him up into the brand that he's become. I wonder if he's pi$$ed some people off and they're now after him.

 

[Don Wassall]

It's quite probable the opposite will happen andWoods will come out of it at some point more beloved than ever. If Woods has engaged in an affair or two he is doing what a sizeable portion of the adult population has done. The DWFs and the Caste media may at some point feel that Tiger is being unfairly examined and badgered and the pendulum will begin swinging back to the wildly pro-Woods extreme whereit has always been up till now. It will be seen in retrospect as Tiger's "dark period," from which he grew and learned the appropriate lessons while also showing that he is a human being rather than the immortal so many believed him to be. The galleries will then be roaring louder than ever for him and the journalists will continue to swoon in His Presence.

Then again if he's screwed up really badly. . . the damage may well be severe and lasting. Or, alternatively, he may never be the same on the course again.

He backed out of his own tourament this week, citing injuries. He can hide out until the Tour starts up in January but if he does that he may also be facing an increasing media demand for him to do public penance of some kind. It should remain an "interesting" story for a while.

 

[Thrashen]

Wow, Tiger basically admitted that he cheated....

http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/tiger...imee-grubbs-alleged-mistress/story?id=9224568


Here is one of the voicemails transcribed, pretty incriminating evidence, if true...


"The voicemail is from Nov. 24, the day before reports of his alleged affairs surfaced, according to US Weekly."

"Hey it's Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favor," Woods says in the message. "Can you please, uh, take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. If you can, please take your name off that and, um, what do you call it, just have it as a number on the voice mail. Just have it as your telephone number. You have to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye."

"The voice mail is accompanied by a lengthy article in which Grubbs claims to have had 20 sexual encounters with Woods since April 2007. She also claims to have more than "300 racy texts from Woods" as well as photos."Edited by: Thrashen

Look for Jim Nance to spin a wonderful tale of rising like the proverbial phoenix if Baldrick has a shot at winning the Masters in April....

I'm surprised by Jesper's comments. Makes me think he's learned afew things about Eldrick over the years.

Parnevik speaks out on Woods situation

Nordegren, 29, began working for the Parneviks as a nanny in 2000. She was first introduced to Woods at the 2001 British Open and they were married in 2004.

(snip)

"I would be especially sad about it since I'm kind of -- I really feel sorry for Elin -- since me and my wife were at fault for hooking her up with him," Parnevik said. "We probably thought he was a better guy than he is. I would probably need to apologize to her and hope she uses a driver next time instead of the 3-iron."

(snip)

 

[White Power]

Once again you can take the boy out of the ghetto but not the ghetto out of the boy way to show you true colors eldrick.

 

[white is right]

I figured out why Baldrick's hair is falling out. He can't juggle 4 house and cell phone numbers, plus 4 first names...

Here is a Reuters story about his women...Tiger Woods image takes a bogey: but will it cost him?

NEW YORK â€" Tiger Woods risks losing millions of dollars worth of endorsement contracts after his comments on Wednesday appeared to fuel speculation that he may have been untrue to his wife.

For now, deals with the likes of Nike, AT&T, and Gillette appeared to be holding fast as companies that have bought into his formerly squeaky clean image opted to postpone any assessment of fallout from the current headlines.

Paid endorsements by the world's No. 1 golfer have gone a long way to making him the world's richest sportsman, with an estimated fortune of $1 billion, and current annual endorsement income of approximately $100 million.

But marketing experts warn that the cash inflows are pegged to the brand, which loses value if tainted.

Woods, 33, issued a "profound apology" for what he called "transgressions" Ã¢â‚¬" but also insisted he be left alone to try to work things out with his family.

His mea culpa came as allegations emerged that his Swedish wife, Elin Nordegren, appeared to have personally confronted one of the three paramours celebrity-focused magazines have cited as his mistresses.

A woman believed to be Nordegren, 29, called the number belonging to Jaimee Grubbs, a Los Angeles wienertail waitress, who has claimed she had a 31-month-long affair with Woods. The woman allegedly accused Grubbs of having sex with her husband, sources told TMZ.com.

Grubbs, 24, who told her story to Us Weekly this week, had formerly been best known for her appearance in VH1's reality dating show Tool Academy.

The phone call to Grubbs constituted another piece of the puzzle that burst into the open last week after the National Enquirer published its story about another alleged mistress, and questions mounted about what caused Woods to crash his Cadillac Escalade outside his Orlando, Fla., home in the wee hours Friday.

On multiple occasions, Woods refused to meet with Florida police to give a full accounting of the accident, as was his right under the law in that circumstance.

But while he had grounds to repel law enforcement authorities, he could not shake media interest in ferreting out every detail that might run counter to the public's perception of him as a loyal father of two.

Woods' statement Wednesday appeared on his website, and contrasted sharply with one Monday in which he had done little more than accept "responsibility"Â for the accident.

"I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all my heart,"Â Woods said in his apology.

"I have not been true to my values and the behaviour my family deserves."Â

The admission made no specific mention of any of the alleged affairs, but mimicked in tone the claim to being the victim of human weakness that talk show host David Letterman also made following his recent forced admission of infidelity.

"I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect,"Â Woods wrote.

But unlike Letterman, who for days continued to talk about his predicament by using it as material for his monologue, Woods accompanied his mea culpa with a plea for privacy.

"No matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake, which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy,"Â he wrote. "I realize there are some who don't share my view on that."Â

Woods also took a direct shot at what he called the "tabloid scrutiny"Â of his life, saying he had been unprepared for it, and charging that some of the printed allegations have veered from reality.

"The stories, in particular, that physical violence played any role in the car accident, were utterly false and malicious,"Â he wrote. "Elin has always done more to support our family and shown more grace than anyone could possibly expect."Â

An accident report released Wednesday by the Florida Highway Patrol said Woods ran off the road three times as he drove over curbs and onto medians, hitting a hedge in addition to the hydrant and tree. Damages were estimated at $3,300 â€" $3,000 for the hydrant, $100 for the hedge and $200 for the tree and sod.

Woods lawyer said Wednesday that the golfer has paid a $165 fine imposed for careless driving. Further property repair payments are pending.

Nike's statement that its relationship with Woods "remains unchanged"Â was typical of statements by many of the other sponsors, which also include Electronic Arts Inc., TLC Vision Corp., Berkshire Hathaway's NetJets Inc., and PepsiCo Inc.'s Gatorade.

The National Enquirer story cited sources claiming that Woods had conducted an affair with club promoter Rachel Uchitel, who denied any such relationship, and publicly described one of the female sources as a "train wreck."Â

But media reports raised the question that Woods and his wife may have been arguing about the allegations when he left in his vehicle, then crashed.

Woods' admission comes a day after Grubbs went public with a bombshell voice mail recording from Nov. 23 that she says is the golfer's voice.

In the message, the male voice says that he expected his wife to be checking up on him by calling numbers marked in his phone â€" and asked Grubbs to wipe off her name from her personal greeting so that Elin would not know it was the phone of a woman.

A third alleged mistress named this week was Kalika Moquin, a Las Vegas club manager. Though she has neither confirmed nor denied any affair, Woods told her he "wasn't happy in his marriage or his home life,"Â a woman claiming to be her friend told Life & Style magazine.

In her interview, Grubbs claimed to have received hundreds of text messages from Woods, and that they were intimate 20 times. She said they were even due to meet in the week one of his children was born, but that he called off the tryst because of a "family issue."Â

Absolutely!

Just the typical interracial "marriage".. The 2nd kid pops-out and things go BOOM.

Charlatan Woods' wasn't going to be content with just one blonde woman. The California girl looks kind of Latin but the other woman, Rebecca, is blonde. "I'm king of the world!"

While this is interesting news and imho good to knock Tiger down a peg or two you really can't say that this doesn't happen to white folks too. Governor Sanford and Bill Clinton came to my mind when I first heard about Tiger.

 

[Don Wassall]

The teflon shield themedia carefullyconstructed for Woods included blacking out his fondness for Vegas nightlife. In an article in today's Las Vegas Review-Journal (which for some reason wasn't put on the paper's online version) columnist Tim Dahlberg (a long time Woods worshipper) writes about two-thirds of the way through: "What was known even before the scandal broke was that Woods had a thing for all things Las Vegas, a town where fantasy eclipses reality and where the whims of the super rich and famous are famously tended to. 'We heard stories and knew when he was in town,' said Norm Clarke, gossip columnist for the Las Vegas Review Journal. 'What Vegas offered was a controlled environment to stay under the radar. You can sign people to confidentiality contracts, but they still talk, especially in this town'."

Now that Woods has breachedhis media-providedteflon shield himself, reporting on more vices and activities may be on the way.

Jim is one of the better commentators. Johnny Miller would go all out Oprah mode.

This would be a gret intro to the Masters. I'd love to see it.

Just hit the play button. Then hit go.
