...but I have to weigh in on the whole Tiger Woods thing from time to time. (I can't help it.) In today's Times, it says that:
[Billy] Payne, [the chairman of Augusta National Golf Club], launched into a prepared statement at his annual pretournament news conference, saying Woods had “disappointed all of us, and more importantly, our kids and our grandkids.”
He added: “Our hero did not live up to the expectations of the role model we saw for our children.”
Come on. Children and grandchildren? Who is he kidding? The average Tiger Woods fan is a middle-aged white guy--with the mentality of a 14-year-old--who struggles to break a hundred on weekends.
The piece also makes reference to Woods's "addiction." What addiction? You mean "sex addiction?" Let me clue you in on a little secret: all men "suffer" from "sex addiction." (Women, too.) And it's a good thing. Because if we didn't, the species would have died out a long time ago.
The only difference between Tiger Woods and every other male is that he has more opportunities. Which probably explains all the outrage. Because under truth serum, there isn't a man in America who wouldn't trade places with him. (Have you seen the pictures of those women?)
