Tiger Woods is a pro-golfer, right? Not the president or someone within the political realm that we hold to a higher degree of morals,right? So, I guess I am shocked that due to an apparent lack of REAL news we are forced to listen to the fact that Tiger drove his car into a tree on the morning news.... Who cares?!! He didn't hurt anyone. He wasn't drunk or on drugs. Once again... Who cares?! At first, I was shocked because in my opinion there was no scandal and if there was, it was none of my business for the above mentioned reasons. Now, it has come into light that he has had multiple affairs. Once again, who cares???!!! I have to wonder if the shock over his alleged affairs and behavior is because so many people have him placed on a pedestal of sorts. Why?! What is it about these famous sports figures that drive people to buy a product because they endorse it and then in the next year refuse to buy it because he didn't live up to their expectations. Did they sign something in their contracts with those that endorse them that would make people believe that they should have such expectations? Of course not. the reason people buy their products is because of their athletic accomplishments. So why is their personal life any concern to the public. Leave it alone!! I'm sure if you had an affair, it wouldn't make the evening news and your boss most likely wouldn't fire you over it. The best thing to do would be to simply not glorify someone for being able to throw a touchdown or shoot a three pointer at the buzzer.
