A number of baseball players paid the consequences for violating standards but not golf. What a terrible image for our youth. Golf is much more than playing the game. It stands for honesty, integrity, respect for the game, etc. etc.  |
I would ask what right do we have to judge the moral value of others. I keep my nose in my own business. I have been instructed by god not to judge others so I don't. Tiger is the best golfer in the world and as a golfer myself, I enjoy watching him play and would like to do that without a stranger telling me he is no good. We all have the right to think what we do, but when you pee in someone else's wheaties its wrong. This thread is simply pointing out the accomplishments of a very talented athlete. I like him, I accept his apology and wish to enjoy his skill on the course.
