Excellent point. To do any less, exposes a different agenda.

Whose post showed "Visceral hatred" toward Tiger and or people in public life with a well established history of adultery???

Reminds us their are people with character flaws that live among us , who must knock other people to make themselves feel good . At least we know their identity and can avoid them . We have some power over them if we pray for them .

Most people on this forum, if not all, said they wished for his returning health, even if they disliked his persona. Atheist or believer...I don't see where anyone didn't hope that he would recover completely. We all have folks that we are drawn to more and those we dislike. There is a BIG difference in feeling that way and doing harm to another or even wishing harm to another.

Karma Tiger Karma...
 
you reap what you sow.

One of the best golfers ever(not the best)...personal life(when you're a superstar you have no personal life)a bust....over the top celebration when sinking a putt..poor sportsmanship.

I wish him a speedy recovery to him and a return to the tour, but unlike those who bow down before him....nah. He zero common sense off the course.

Poor tiger
 
It will be interesting to hear his story

As others have said, Tiger is (at least arguably) the greatest golfer of all time. I wish him a good recovery and it would be a huge news story if he made another return attempt.

But as much as he has succeeded on the golf course, he has failed miserably in other more important parts of life. All humans have failures. But not everyone has failed in as contrived, repeated and remorseless fashion as Tiger.

So am I a fan of Tiger as a golfer? No. I just can't...and don't wish to...separate enough what he's done on the golf course from what he's done off the course.

That doesn't mean I wish him any ill-health. Get well, Tiger. While not a fan, I will admit it would be very interesting to watch another comeback attempt.

(And never in a million years would I think the phrase "Poor guy can't catch a lucky break" applies to Tiger. :)

Tiger Woods along with his Tiger Woods Foundation to date have raised Hundreds of millions of dollars and spent thousands of hours doing charitable work, all while making a positive impact in the lives of under privileged, under educated, and those who would be left by the wayside without the help he has provided.
What a POS and terrible human being he is.

Do you know what a backhanded compliment is? Look it up. I don't feel pity for Tiger but concern. And he deserves points for being a good father. Reportedly his own father wasn't a particularly moral role model and, you know, the apple and the tree.

Let's bring a little humor into this discussion. What kind of woods don't drive well? Tiger Woods!

And from the past...What kind of wood does not float? Natalie Wood!

Natalie Woods mother always told her it's OK to drink, just don't go overboard.

Hey you started!

Constantly cheated on the mother of his children and he is a good father? Hmmm.... what is the definition of a good father (not murdering a family member)? Why not just divorce her if he doesn’t want to keep his wows.
