None of us have anything do with what Tiger is of is not. Tiger is accountable only to his family, and in particular, his wife. It is a private matter. I always wish for the best for people. Other than that, Its not my business. Except, people who try to benefit from or injure others by making false accusations should be held accountable. Infamy should be their only reward.

take a peek on this tiger woods summarization on giving more enlightenment on what really did happened to woods this week.

If you want privacy, don't call 911. These are tax payer dollars and we deserve transparency.

Our taxpayer dollars go to public school funding, so do we have the right to know personal information about the students within that system?

We have to be able to examine police conduct at any time. It would be easy to wipe people out mafia or CIA style otherwise. It would be easy to cover up crimes. School records have nothing to do with crimes. We need to know of them for a safer society.

Tiger Woods got caught leaving the house, trying to make a late night booty call! When you break a window out of a car, especially a back window it sounds like a gun blast. I think he thought she was shooting at his posterior and lost control of the car. He got distracted alright.
08:28 AM on 11/30/2009
OK she broke the window to get him out or to get at him what ever, air bags did not deploy because of the low speed of crash how about the door locks they must have been automatic if doors are locked and he is unconscious why not break out a side widow and unlock doors with the unlock button, the back window seems like a lot of extra work, if domestic violence is suspect you are not allowed the privileged privacy the money usually takes care of, investigate quickly and fairly. Many victims of domestic violence are keenly interested in the results of this case..........
01:13 AM on 11/30/2009
This is a domestic-triggered accident for the following reasons 1)The wife had no impetus to call 911 for fear of exposing the domestic. 2) The wife was there as Tiger lay 'unconscious' as indicated by the dude who called 911; "I am with THEM". 3. Precipitous phone hang-up is indicative of the fact the Woodses indeed preferred a cover-up

Seems like the caller didn't want to say to much or didn't know what to say because after all it was Tiger Woods on the ground.

Aww Tiger.Leave him alone
04:21 PM on 11/29/2009
Why didn't Tiger's wife make the call to 911? She was the
first one on the scene. Strange that the neighbor had the
gumption to call for help, not the wife. Maybe she was
too traumatized.

I wish that 911 wouldn't release 911 tapes. It's only done when it's something sensational. Seems like an incredible breach of privacy.

Don't use tax payer dollars by needing 911 to be called.

You're joking joking right? Why are we entitled to hear a 911 call? This is something done only to titilate the public. There's no useful purpose for releasing them.

This happened in public.
Its a public safety matter.
Taxpayers pay for 911 service.
Secrecy promotes tyranny.

Please! The only reason why this 911 call was released publicly is because of who the victim/injured party is and the MSM's desire to turn this unfortunate incident into a three ring circus.

The CAUSE of the "accident" is the rub.

Wifey smashed the rear window out, distracting him from the road
