new condom ad

What about the schools that he supports. One of his computer schools in LA, helps deserving young adults pursue a career in Computer Science.
You would eliminate his ability to help these poor kids based on your obsession with other people’s sex lives?
You and all the other obsessed voyeurs need to get a life. Ask yourself this question. Does Tiger Woods give a dam about whom I hump? The answer is obvious, yet you and the soap opera crowd feels like you have some sort natural born right to keep your nose at his keyhole.

I want Tiger Woods to continue to donate some of his billions to support disadvantaged American children.

Whom he humps in his spare time have no more to do with me than whom you and your sisters hump in your spare time.

Bob Scheiffer last Sunday explained this well. If Tiger did not want us obsessed with his sex life, he simply needed to turn down the billion dollars we gave him and just play golf with his friends. Then the only person who cared about who he laid would be his wife.

But he took our money, and now we get entertained.

bob scheiffer was simplying parroting what many were already saying. There was nothing about his statement that added anything to the conversation. Everyone understands that, but, what makes it ok? Do we still live in a society that has anyone who has been unfaithful walk around town with a big red letter A on their chest, just so we know who they are? Yes, apparently, we do still live in that archaic mode.

All these people look like fools now because Tiger has taken all responsibility for it and now aims to heal the wounds he (and the mistresses) have inflicted on his family. but, he alone! No one else can help him undo the damage. It's a tall order and I challenge ANYONE to go through what he is going through without throwin their hands up and saying EFF it! It would have been much easier for him to say, I'm just gonna keep playin golf and making millions and forget my family. that isn't Tiger Woods. He's manning up and my hope is that he can do it.

New Nike ad: just don't do it.

I hope his wife has had an HIV test.

That's the cruelest blow of all. To expose her to disease.

The worst part is going to be the exponentiation of jerks yelling "in the hole" during golf events.

I have been in the garage all day making signs that say that. I thought it was clever. You think I am a jerk?

Only if you yell loud enough to drown out the other hundred-plus people already shouting the same thing.

Made up name. Tiger's is sponsored by Accenture, a consulting firm, and the ads are similar.
11:26 AM on 12/10/2009
Accenture is a very large global IT consulting company who features Tiger Woods prominently in various ads. It will be these kind of companies who could move away from Tiger, since they are not sports related, and so simply winning tournaments may not be enough to fix the damaged Tiger brand.

Get over it news media. What happened is between Tiger and his wife. This is not news, it's a family situation.

Too Much Information.

Right you are,

I think they're picking on Tiger because he is an Asian.

No, I think they are zeroed in on the 1/8 of him that is American Indian. The media has been fascinated with cowboy and indian stuff for years.

No, i think they're picking on him cause he's a liar. He's a joke. The ad companies and himself, they tried to make him some kind of demi-god, man of all men, and he's not.
11:17 AM on 12/10/2009
I respectfully disagree.

I think once Tiger Woods decided to profit from a certain image, he aligned himself with that image. He appeared in Nike ads with little children saying, "I am Tiger Woods." That's not just the choice of a hollow corporation; that was Woods' choice as well. If he wants to participate in such messianic messages, then he should pay the price for not being angelic.

By "pay the price" I simply mean he deserves public scrutiny to the extent that it costs him the sponsorship deals based on a particular image. He does not deserve to lose golf-related sponsorship deals, unless they try to profit from an image that extends beyond his abilities as a golfer.

Having a mistress, having eleven mistresses, having mistresses that are porn stars - you have to admit that this is better than any soap opera on TV. Three teams of lawyers working on it, not counting the mistresses lawyers, amazing, can you see a book deal in this for someone?

I see book deals for Everyone! Too juicy from every angle.
I admit, I can't stop reading about it.
(Didn't say I was proud, just that I admit it.
If Yahoo is thanking Tiger for its giant hits - I'm far from alone!)

Tiger's PR people are robbing him blind, it's so juicy coz it's Drip, Drip Drip.
I would say her should've come clean from the beginning - but I doubt anyone would have believed 10 mistresses and more to come.

It's only going to get better.

I feel sorry for Elin. She's going to have to spend a lot of money to find out what sort of cooties Tiger bestowed upon her for their wedding anniversary...
