The Fall of the Tiger.

The Fall of the Tiger.
It was truly one of the most pathetic performances ever seen by a sportsmen. The apology given by Tiger Woods today was fingers down the throat sickening on so many levels. 1.Why did he feel the need to publicly apologise for something that has no relation to golf? 2. His whole demeanour was that of a victim, designed to provoke sympathy-Why? 3. His admission that he is attending a clinic for sex addiction. Fucking around is not a disease or an affliction, for most men this is quite normal-and should be enjoyed. Youth should be the time for sowing your oats, but being unfaithful is still not a disease-just stupid! 4. Why did the media take this so seriously when most of us are thinking-what a load of bollocks?
What happens between him and his family is none of our business, and I will now wait for him to apologise for apologising. His biggest mistake is apologising to the world and believing that we care. It shows such an astounding degree of self-important conceit that it almost compares to the Beatles statement that they were more popular than Jesus-but at least that was true.
His sponsors need to get a grip, as no star has ever lost popularity for being human. Personal morality and sport are not related, George Best, Maradona, Wayne Rooney, David Beckham and John Terry will always be remembered and admired by men for their football not their philandering. Priests, Vicars, and other professions that preach morality should practice what they preach, a sportsmen needs to practice professional morality and fair play, his personal life is his concern, not ours.
Was Tiger brave to face the world's media? No, just extremely stupid.

His sponsors should now drop him for being so utterly pathetic-as should his wife. He has now brought his family life into the public sphere and therefore made himself fair game. He needs to check out of the clinic , as staying there is only refusing to accept responsibility for his actions by blaming it on a 'sickness' . The only important question he needs to ask himself is- Am I sorry? Or am I just sorry that I got caught? Whatever the answer, just get on with it, go to work and stop being a twat about it.
