Well, it's a bit like Kobe, except that Tiger seems to have had a bigger appetite. Like Tiger, Kobe had the image of a saint. I think that Interloper was right that it was natural for people to want to bring him down a peg. But, that's called envy. Tiger, yep, is/was a serial adulterer. I don't know if that makes the girls who cheated with him better or worse. If I say no, then if Tiger wasn't married everything he has done would be the typical, normal behavior for a sub-30 gazillionaire. Yeah, it is a question why 'Broadway' Joe would be admired for his conquests. Anyway, I think envy is more at work that racism. Actually, when this country was really racist, few socially-respectable white girl (er, scratch that ... except Swedish bikini models) would admit to having sex with a black guy. When it was racist, Tiger would have had to leave the country and take his balls somewhere else. Tsk, tsk, I also pity poor guy who's going with, engaged to, or eventually marries one these girls that kiss and tell. If it had been my girl, or my daughter, I'd have hoped she'd at least have had the sense to be discreet. Hey, Tiger might just be a sex addict ... duh, and maybe it says more about him that he married anyone. Imagine how much money the guy would have saved. Now, unfortunately, if he stays married --which is doubtful-- he won't be getting nearly enough nookie to satisfy his voracious appetite. If you were his wife, and getting millions in addition to the prenup, would you stay?
Okay, frankly, I don't really want to know. This is really only Tiger and his missus's problem. The story will sell papers, though, just like the decline of Lindsay Lohan, people love to watch car wrecks. I'll bet a lot of married men are envying Tiger, on one hand; and counting their blessings that they haven't been caught on tape and in the glare of the spotlight.
