The F tiger thing was just a blanket statement that I didn't outright condemn the guy.

You're right I dont know what he's done or hasnt done. The only reason I know about the Kid rock stuff is from word of mouth through a six degrees of separation kind of thing. So maybe I just don't know the right person to hear the good things about tiger.

Maybe he does do clinics but anything golf related just looks like a pr stunt to further his image. He wanted to show you he was a good guy.

One thing that is glaring to me is that everyday more women come out and say they've had relations with tiger but how many people have came out and said give him a break he's a good guy? Where's his friends and people who havent just benefited money wise from him standing behind him?

I've heard his caddie, some athletes from other sports and lots of golfers say the things you are looking to hear. I doubt Tiger's real close friends are running to the media to talk.

As for his participation and such, I don't know how many more ways to say it. You don't know what his motivations are. Neither do I. Saying he only did certain things because he wanted us to think certain things is just false. No one can know that.

He gives money and it's "hey look at me" or only done because of tax writeoffs. You don't hear about him giving to the average Joe and he's wrong there too. He puts in time and effort into his foundation, learning center and golf clinics for kids and he's just doing it because he wants us to think he's a good guy.

We'll just have to agree to disagree....because I think you'll find something wrong or bad intentions behind anything good he does. It's no secret that I'm a fan of Tiger...so I'm likely biased the other way. But when it comes to giving time, money and effort, I'm not going to question anyone. No question Tiger is a terrible husband, but ripping him for charitable efforts is a pretty big stretch.
