Does anyone really think it's our business what Tiger Woods does in his private life... I think people or at least news loves this story so much because he was always on this pedestal above everyone else in his profession and in his personal life. Boy, how we love to take people down a peg or two to make us feel better. Am I right or wrong about this?

No. It is not our business what Tiger Woods or any other celebrity for that matter does in their private lives. It is the media that makes it our business by the continous updates on what is going on in the celebrity's private life. I think once we get sucked up into the media's hopla is when we begin to want to know more and more. With Tiger Woods, I do not think the excessive media coverage on his private life has so much to do with the whole cheating or "transgression" thing. It has to do with the fact that it is Tiger Woods of all people who has gotten caught doing something wrong. Tiger, up unitl now, has led a pretty quiet private life. Nobody never heard anything about his private life off the golf course.

The private life of Tiger Woods should be kept private. It is not the business of anyone else.

Frankly, I agree with you. :angry7: That's the downside of human nature. Humans unfortunately have this nasty habit of gossiping negative news of other people to inflate their bloated egos. There are many people that are like that with a full load of :bs:. You can't change others, but you can change yourself. :)

I don't really care about the situation. If he did, if he didn't none of our business. The media blows this stuff up to much. I wish that there was a magazine or show that would dig up all the wrong doings that these journalist do. Maybe this crappy way of reporting will stop.

Lol...Now that's a good idea. And ironically something that I may care about or watch. heh... Jon Stewart comes the closest to that with The Daily Show. :thumbsup:
-
It's true that it isn't any of our business that Tiger Woods is doing...however, isn't it the same when a friend tells us something about someone else and I seem to have an opinion about it. Especially if the issue is relative to our core feelings. In this case, Tiger is going to feel it burn for a minute because he is in the public eye. I don't think that anyone would a direct influence to this matter regardless of how they feel about Tiger. But we can't help but to discuss the particulars.
-
I think the press should leave him alone because of the shame his behavior is bringing on his wife and children, who don't deserve such unpleasant attention.
-
i think hes entitled to do whatever he wants... i dont care one way or another... i just wish him the best...
-
Very corny of him to have all these women sing like a bird aganist him lol and that recording of the erase my phone number thing is just as tacky whats the point of even getting married to that woman??? Smh this is what the sport entertainment media wanted to make his life a living heck and theyre not going to let up til they seperate .......what you do in the dark comes to the light as they say .......no kidding
-
The news media has really blown the Tiger Woods incident way out of proportion. I am really sick of hearing about this. He isn't the first to cheat on his mate and will not be the last. So many people had put Tiger on a pedestal and then they discovered he is only human like everybody else. Leave the man and his wife alone for goodness sake.
The Media will do and say anything for sensationalism. They really are scum.
-
Since networks are running news 24/7, they report on anything and everything. There are so many news stories that are far more important than this silliness.
-
Who cares what he does or who he sleeps with. As long as he can golf, hey just do it.
-
I think he's a complete dog and his wife should leave him but I don't give a rats *bleep*.
-
Does it make for an interesting news story? Yes.
Is it the public's business? Most definitely not.
I don't condone what he did but it isn't my place to judge, I don't know him.
-
I think it completletly reatarted to have some a big thing with Tiger woods and it's nones buisness
Sorry about the spelling
I can't spell
-
And Oprah wants a piece of him theyre setting up a future interview date smh and gatorade pulled out on the endorsement deal but they say its not bc of the scandal yeaahh ok gatorade we believe you .......tiger will jump back from this im sure too much talent in those clubs to just throw it all away ....im sure his job wont be affected but as far as his family goes ...looks kinda tarnished i wish him all the best
-
Thoughts about his speech today?
-
Well not really because we are in the entertainment century so I'd say everyone should be filled in.
-
I think that what he did was wrong but he's moving in the right direction...I also think that way too much attention is put
on the issue, but at the same time, that's the price you pay for being a celebrity, and while I think some information should be private, that's what happens to someone of his status....I do think his family should be left alone and I do think that's its good he's in rehab and he will return to golf!
-
Tiger's family should be the only ones receiving an apology from him. The public should not have access to his private life and his sponsors need him more than he needs them.
-
I believe his first words were "as part of my therapy" so evidently this was a requirement in his rehab that he publicly apologize and I think he did owe an apology to us because he is such a public figure and a role model for so many young people.
-
I agree that he is a role model but we've seen this over and over where an athlete does something wrong and falls from grace. Shouldn't it be the responsibility of the parents to explain to their kids the difference between the qualities they should admire about an athlete(their athletic ability)and the fact that they are human and are prone to mistakes. Tiger directly betrayed his wife and children but nobody else.
-

He doesn't owe me an apology. I could care less. So what he's a public figure? He swings a golf club, that's it. He doesn't run the country. I still think his wife should divorce his sorry a$$ no way in heck would I want to be married to someone that slept with so many people. How could she ever even want to be in the same bed with him? I know I wouldn't ever want him to touch me again. He basically showed her he had no respect for her that she means nothing to him that he didn't care about her or their marriage.
-
It's all about selling stories, and Tiger sells. But his private should be private!! But he did crash on somebodies property,if none of that happened this never would have been brought out.
-
no it is not our business at all,he is his own person. everybody leave him alone!
-
I don't know why everyone was so shocked to learn that a professional athlete has been unfaithful. This happens all the time, except this time Tiger was caught. We have to stop assuming that the better the athlete, the more morality he should have. In fact, the better the athlete, the more temptation he will face due to his success. If you weren't surprised that Tiger would succumb to the temptations that he has faced all these years, do you really deserve an apology from him? The only information needed from his speech was an apology to his family for what they have gone through and a "mind your own business" to everyone else. We should have never known about any of this but for some reason everyone feels entitled to know everything concerning his private life.
-
Did anybody see his interview with the Golf Channel. Did he answer any tough questions?
Does he still have what it takes, to get the job done on the course?
-
Personally, I just want him to come back and play. He's the only reason I watch golf. When he's on his game, he brings excitement to the course. Unlike anyone I've ever seen. I really don't care about his personal life anymore than I care about an actor's personal life in a movie I'm watching.
-
I want to see Tiger go out and win right off the bat at the Masters and tell the media off. His personal life is his and what him and his wife do from here on out who cares. Do wanna know what happened that night though
-
I don't think it is anything but a private matter.
-
It is definately not our business...and since I really don't care, I'm getting tired of hearing about him. If he wasn't a celebrity his bedroom doors would have stayed closed.
