Is Tiger Woods a victim of his own success?

  1. Yes. You try making a billion dollars and being an angel.

    This guy [sort of] apologizes for Tiger Woods. I don't get it. If Tiger wanted the life of twelve women on each arm daily, why get married? So hard when you are twenty I get it because we've all been driven mad by the blood running in our veins at that age, but TW is not twenty.

    What's the answer for these guys in general? Maybe sports teams should set up counseling arms. "Realities of being a major league player 101". But who was there for TW? I hate to think that Roger Federer let him down a bit. He probably has to much class to think it is his business. Still...

    Even more amazing to me is how The Iron Horse was able to sustain integrity throughout his career. He is the only athlete who's jersey I would ever be seen wearing. It would just say 4 on the back of a Yankees jersey.
     
  2. Five stars for including the final poll option. A truly egalitarian poll, one that includes the option for the rest of us. :cool:
