Really good story about this "incident" in the Miami Herald
When Tiger Woods and scandal collide, truth becomes the victim
"The news-gathering landscape has mutated so quickly and so absolutely, at once enhanced and contaminated by the immediacy of everything from texts to Twitter to TMZ, that America's most famous athlete this weekend went from suffering a serious injury in a car accident . . . to suffering a minor injury in a car accident . . . to being ``fine,'' according to his agent . . . to reportedly being unfaithful to his wife . . . to maybe having his face scratched by his angry wife . . . to being rescued by his helpful wife from his crashed car with a golf club . . . to having his car smashed up by his betrayed wife and her golf club . . . to not being any kind of ``fine'' at all.
....In the modern age, there have been very few famous people whose face we know more but whose personalities we know less. That has been by design. Rest assured, you haven't heard from him yet because his handlers are trying to figure out how and what to handle. Forbes magazine reports that Woods is the first-ever billionaire athlete, and that face is too valuable to have scratches from a domestic dispute without explanation."

Yes this is true.Those of us who really know vurbano know why he doesnt like tigerSpecially not the fact that his girlfriend is well.. You know.
OMG!!!! He is actually human and NOT GOD!!!
People make mistakes....
It's the media and folks like you that build these people up...and then no sooner than they make mistakes us "regular folks" make EVERY SINGLE DAY .....they shoot them down as if they are just committed child murder.:rant:
...the ONLY difference between them and us is money and a skill. They drink, eat, bathe and put on their pants like anyone else.

I don't build any sports figure up. In fact, The truth is many are not nice people to be around. But if Woods and his wife lied to the police I have a problem with that. And it will be ESPN and other "Sports" outlets that will defend Woods even if he broke the law.
I don't think THEY lied...their "people" lied for them to avoid the bad pub, I am sure the LAST thing Tiger and his wife, IF IT REALLY WAS A DOMESTIC ISSUE, were thinking, "gee, I wonder what the public with think...?"
And EVERYONE has jacked up these poeple as godly figures. At one point I DID the same, until I started working with these professional athletes on a day-to-day basis. Like I said, they are NO DIFFERENT you or I. AND...."many of these folks are not nice people" is an assumption by your part. I would say 99% of the athletes I HAVE come in contact with, professionally and personally, are good people. They are weary because alot of the strangers that approach them initially, are looking for something OTHER than just a simple "hello" and a handshake.
I am sure ALL of you would be a tad apprehensive TOO if some came up to not say "hello, nice to meet you....." but, "hi, I am a big fan....can I have....."(autograph, picture, sign my cast, sign my book sign my arm, sign my breast....you name it).
If they lied to the police about really happened they will be charged. If she told the police that she pulled Tiger out of the car after she smashed the rear window but in fact didn't she will be charged.
But this is not just about a Golfer having an accident. And Tiger enjoys the spotlight because he's a great golfer. He also has to deal with the down side of it as well. Too bad for him but it's the price they pay for fame.I guess pro golfers can't have car accidents? Get some real news!
i hate this kind of sh** . i guess we should find out how many times he wipes is a** after taking a s*** too.I guess pro golfers can't have car accidents? Get some real news!
Why? Tiger has to obey the law just like the rest of us.i hate this kind of sh** . i guess we should find out how many times he wipes is a** after taking a s*** too.
that's true but it still doesn't make it news. it just feeds those who are addicted to this kind of gossip. (losers) if this happens to you and i not even the neighbors would really care.
But his so-called "down side" is a FAMILY MATTER...and not a national media event. IF he did cheat on his wife....it's none of YOUR business, MY business and ANYONE else's business....period.
I could care less whether Mrs. Woods used a niblick to help extract Tiger out of the vehicle or beat him into submission...just don't care for the inconsistencies in the story, and the fact that all further details will be coming from the Tiger Woods public relationship team.
When will people learn that this kind of "stuff" snowballs and grows out-of-control when you try to cover up the details.

I bet TMZ is pist! LOL! Here we have the "real" media, with the bigger budgets, getting the scoops before and faster than they are getting.....LOL!
If no one else was involved with the accident. They its cut and dry . He wasn't drunk so why does anything else matter?
If I hit a Tree and got hurt, The cops would have been there. And that would have been that. My insurence would have went up and tomorrow would have been another day.
The Press are a bunch of A$$holes.

What law did he break?
Nobody knows but according to the reports charges are pending. And the reason this is news is because Tiger does come across as a happy guy at home. I thought he was . But it appears that's not the case.
Just like the military's Uniformed Code of Military Justice, I though Florida was one of those states that still carried "Adultery and Fornification" as a criminal statute? Regardless, perhaps "she" committed assault and battery against her husband.What law did he break?
I any case, I doubt the Woods' will speak directly to the police or the press about what happened...they'll just let their lawyers and PR folks handle the details.
