Should Tiger hang it up?
- Thread starter MU4NU
- Start date
I loved watching the USA win gold in curling at the Olympics.
Cool. I’ve also heard the Phoenix Open is like spring break. So, I would say the attendance is more due to the party-like atmosphere than it is about golf. Just my opinion...again.
Pretty jacked to see him in the mix again. Crazy how his odds to win the Masters has changed so fast too.
He will NOT win today. Still way too early for him to jump back . If he can hold on and get a top 10 he should be thrilled. Golfers are no longer indimidated by him when others would fold on the final day. Tiger will need to earn wins now bs being given them in the past.
I don't watch much golf so I only watch when Tiger plays and even then usually just the majors
Tiger really showed well this weekend, and that 44 foot putt was superb, dude had a huge smile after he picked his ball out of the hole. And I like the way he's interviewing, he's disappointed but upbeat, he really seems to be enjoying his game, even in a loss. He's definitely excited to be back as a contender.
I don't want a creepy hooker-banging sex-addict playing on the PGA Tour, and I hope he never wins another tournament. The man is a worm.
Who will be left playing then? Let's not pretend all other players are saints Du.
Agree! And while we're at it, let's make sure the Lincoln Journal and the OWH stop running articles on the Huskers. Winking
Tiger is the draw for non watchers. Plain and simple, of course they are going to pump it up.
Name one player on the PGA tour that has ever come remotely close to the number of transgressions that Tiger has. Sleeping with hookers on a regular basis. Sleeping with his neighbor's 21-year old daughter. Making a complete mockery of marriage. Driving under the influence of drugs. He makes John Dailey look like a choir boy. He deserves all the **** that comes his way.
John Dailey is no choir boy - he speed played a PGA round so he could get to drinking beer faster - THAT is disrespecting the game he you get paid and fans that pay to watch you to play - WORSE than anything Tiger did (unless he murdered someone we don't know about). F JD.
Du, never thought I would say this, but I agree with you on Tiger. My wife dislikes his character so much she cheers against him. I must have been sleeping under a rock, I am not aware of ALL of his antics you listed. I knew about the ones the news has trumpeted out there.
I'm not sure he ever put up Tiger-like numbers, but enough wives kicked Hal Sutton out the the house that he was known on tour as Halimony.
While that is bad, I'm going to go ahead and completely disagree with you that what Daily did was in the same stratosphere as constantly sleeping with hookers, when Tiger had a wife and kids.
Or maybe no one knows the extent of the other players shady doings because...well frankly because no one gives a rats *** about anyone not named Tiger. Secondly, does your standard only apply to golfers or all pro athletes? Because no one ever seems to care about what any athlete not named Tiger does in their free time...
Not defending what he did, but he seems to be the only one of hundreds (thousands?) of athletes do that get the moral police on their case. I don’t care what these guys do in their free time, and maybe you shouldn’t either. It’s none of your business
I can make it my business if I want. Got it? I don't like Trump either, because he is guilty of sexual assault, not to mention that he is an A-Hole of epic proportions, so this isn't just a Tiger Woods thing. Any person that conducts himself like Tiger or our POTUS does deserves to be scrutinized.

Stand on that soap box...just don’t forget Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Rick Pitino, Frank Solich, A-Rod, Sean Payton, Charles Barkley, Bill Belichek, Wilt Chamberlain, Shaq, JFK, MLK Jr., Bill Clinton...that’s a decent start. Be sure to take them down on any thread they are brought up in. Fact of the matter is that there is a cheating culture amongst pro athletes and is well known that over 50% of pro athletes cheat on their wives. People that take down Tiger almost never care about anyone else and it’s hypocritical.
Dustin Johnson banged other PGA Tour pros wives and did a bunch of blow. I think he failed like 2 drug tests a few years ago for cocaine and one for marijuana. I still root for him.
I've never rooted for Tiger until this weekend. I don't know why I did, it must just be the underdog. I like an underdog and Tiger was that this weekend. I'm still not a fan of his.
Rickie Fowler is who I root for on day 1. If he isn't in the field at the end then i gotta choose, and I usually pick an american who is contention on the last day.
I can add another player that I dislike to my list. I hadn't heard of Dustin Johnson's indiscretions, but I won't be rooting for him, and in fact will probably root against him much like I root against Tiger.
Truhusker, for some reason the system wouldn't allow me to quote your post, but when 21 women come out of the woodwork claiming sexual assault against Trump, there has to be something there. That's beyond hearsay. The guy is a creep, and confirms it on a regular basis.
I applaud you on 44 years of staying true to your wife. That is commendable and the way things should be. No doubt your strong faith is a part of that. Congratulations on making a great marriage!

I can forgive an indiscretion or two, but Tiger didn't give a crap about anyone but himself. Over 30 women is a little excessive, wouldn't you say? And I put Wilt Chamberlain in that group of creeps too.
I don't know enough about all of the others, but didn't Kobe cheat on his wife just the one time? Suffice it to say that if I knew more about the other athletes and coaches you listed, I would be adding them to the list of people I have little respect for. Not necessarily if they were unfaithful once during a difficult period in their marriage, but recurring instances makes it more difficult to defend their actions.
Trump in his position has a lot of enemies and he's in a position where anybody can and do makeup whatever they want against him because of their political beliefs. 20 women claiming that he touched them or looked at them the wrong way isn't a lot when you take into account how much he's hated by some people.
In each of the allegations against Trump, each of the women were specific about what happened. Sure, some of them may be making up the incidents, but I have a hard time believing that this many women would come out with allegations.
Guess I thought we still lived in America where you are innocent until proven guilty. I am pretty sensitive to "allegations" without fact. Having some personal experience. I am not saying Trump or any of the other 20 or so people talked about here are guilty or innocent, some have admitted it, but the truth is that talk is sometimes cheap. And it doesn't matter if it is 1 time or 50 it is still wrong. To say Trump had affairs is believable, then to stretch it to sexual assault without proof is plain wrong, whether you like the guy or not. I guess it is always easier to believe what we want to believe and the truth isn't necessarily something we care about if it doesn't fit our narrative.
