Tiger Woods speaks
Tiger Woods is planing an “indefinite” break from professional golf.
From his official website:
I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children. I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I’ve done, but I want to do my best to try.
I would like to ask everyone, including my fans, the good people at my foundation, business partners, the PGA Tour, and my fellow competitors, for their understanding. What’s most important now is that my family has the time, privacy, and safe haven we will need for personal healing.
After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person.
Again, I ask for privacy for my family and I am especially grateful for all those who have offered compassion and concern during this difficult period.
I think it’s kind of late in the game to be asking for privacy. For years he has gone out and inserted himself into the public consciousness by telling us to buy one product after another. Tiger Woods may like to say that he is a professional golfer, but for every dollar he’s earned playing golf, he’s probably earned one hundred shilling products.
Who knows, maybe Tiger Woods doesn’t even like playing golf.
It’s not like he ever chose to play golf. His father forced it upon him at a very early age. He was raised, programed even, to become a professional golfer. It’s entirely possible that he could hate playing golf and not even know it.
The train wreak that is Tiger Woods just wont stop

When will this national nightmare end?
First it came out that Tiger was seeing a skanky cocktail waitress on the side. Then it came out that he was seeing lots of skanky women on the side. Lots and lots of skanky women.
If Tiger has a fondness for skanky women, why did he marry Elin? That’s the thing I don’t understand, not that I feel the need to understand this.
Tiger Woods was not drunk, he was on prescription pain medication
There appears to be more to the Tiger Woods solo auto accident then was first reported. Go figure. When Woods first hit the fire hydrant and then the neighbor’s tree, he was sitting behind the wheel unresponsive. The doors were locked, so wife Elin Nordegren used a golf club to smash in one of the back windows so that she could extract Tiger from the vehicle. Either she had heard the crash and came outside to see what had happened or she helped cause the accident by slamming that same golf club she used to rescue her husband into Tiger’s Cadillac Escalade several times as he was trying to leave the happy home. Both scenarios have been appearing in news accounts about the accident.
Tiger was lying in the street with his wife Elin was standing over him when police arrived.
Remember those facial lacerations that Tiger supposedly sustained in the auto accident? Well, it now appears he received those not from the accident, but from his lovely wife prior to the accident. It was supposedly the reason Tiger was in the mood to go out driving at 2:30 a.m.
Because his wife beat him up.
And what would cause the Elin to go medieval on Tiger? Rumor has it that Tiger has been seeing another woman, Rachel Uchitel. The rumor had been reported in the National Enquirer this week so it must be true. They are usually right about such things. As John Edwards.
Though Tiger Woods may not have been using alcohol at the time of the accident, he evidently was taking prescription pain medication. This would explain why he was acting so loopy when police arrived.
What it doesn’t explain is why he wasn’t placed under arrest.
Tiger Woods injured in car crash
Tiger Woods was involved in an auto accident. From WESH NBC Orlando:
The Florida Highway Patrol said Woods was injured in the crash, which took place at about 2:30 a.m., and was taken to Health Central Hospital. The Orange County Fire Department confirmed that a patient was taken to Health Central, but would not confirm that the patient was Woods.
A source told WESH 2 News that Woods has been treated for facial lacerations.
Woods was driving a 2009 black Cadillac Escalade when he lost control and hit a fire hydrant outside his home and a tree outside his neighbor’s home, FHP said.
FHP said the crash is still under investigation. It said alcohol did not play a role in the crash, but that charges are pending.
Isn’t Woods a spokesman for Buick? Why then wasn’t he behind the wheel of a Buick? Granted, Buick and Cadillac are both brands owned by General Motors, but Woods only appears in commercials for Buick.
How does someone crash into a fire hydrant and then a tree at 2:30 a.m. and not be drunk while doing it? Can a sober person even do that? If anything, being sober while unleashing all that vehicular chaos is even worse if you aren’t drunk.
I’m pretty sure he was drunk. He had to be.
LPGA golfer goes the extra mile for one of her sponsors
Top-ranked LPGA golfer Lorena Ochoa is engaged and the lucky guy is one of her sponsors. The 27-year-old professional golfer will marry 39-year-old Andres Conesa, the director general of Aeromexico airline, one of her sponsors.
Why couldn’t Tiger Woods do that? When it came time for him to settle down, he married a Swedish nanny. He didn’t marry a bigwig from Nike or Buick.
This is just one of the reasons the LPGA is so much better than the PGA. The ladies are more committed to their sport than their male counterparts.
