he doesn’t owe any of us an apology.
He owes his wife, kids and family an apology.
He owes his business partners and sponsors an
apology.
We didn’t trust him with our money. We didn’t
vote for him to run our government.
Like Charles Barkley said years ago…”athletes
are not role models”.
If you pretend that any human being is
beyond “being human” than that is your problem.
When people in public want us to think they
are infallible then it is us who have
a problem.
Tiger never said he was perfect. He cussed and
screamed and threw his clubs. He is another
person…open to mistakes and problems and
inconsistencies in his life.
I believe in second chances and remdemption.
Hoefully he will get his life back together and
we can watch him do the thing we love to see
him do…play golf.
jojo
also…this talk about tiger being a hero
or any athlete being a hero is absurd.
The real heros are the doctors and nurses who
rushed to haiti to save lives. The volunteers
who helped rebuild a kansas town or new orleans
after katrina. The kids who have been fighting
a forgotten war in iraq and afghanistan.
Those are my heros.
A guy who hits a ball with a stick IS NOT A
HERO.
wow
Jojo, I’m proud of you. A worthwhile comment that was actually better than the post…and I totally agree with you.

Almost all celebrities at his level have failed marriages……he is no different…especially when you marry at a young age…they will likely divorce soon…and he should…this deal is over..he and she need to move on…
Yes JoJo is right, he never should have been put through this, he didn’t owe us any explanation, he owed it only to his family and their families. The media went way overboard here…he is only human, not perfect, who is…

Tiger Woods: Or should we Say “Tiger Woods Inc.” I did not watch the mea culpa….my thoughts are, that Tiger is a tragedy. He is a soul that has lived out of balance his whole life. No childhood, most likely an abusive Old Man. Tiger Inc. is a multi billion dollar franchise and all we’re seeing here is a spin routine to re-coup most if not all of the dough. The only ones that didn’t know Tiger was a kinky dude was his fan-club. He will be back winning and pitching products very soon…you can bank on it.
Pfizer has already inked him for the New Tiagra

GREAT remarks Jojo. Note the positive feedback from other posters. Keep it up.

Hey Craig,
I heard Paul Rodriquz on the radio this morning. It was a play back of a Johnny Dare interview. He mentioned your club. Is he coming any time soon? He sounds a little down on his luck.
He also mentioned how Bill Mahar and George Lopez won’t help him out or return his calls. Any knowledge you can share?

I was in studio with our comic as Johnny did Paul’s interview…Paul and I used to hang out here and in LA..he did our club three times in the late 90’s…I would have him back…Paul always wanted to be the number one Latino Comic, at one time he was but time passed him by a bit, with Lopez(we had him before he got huge) and even Mencia…Paul had one big year with movies, Ali,Bloodwork,Rat Race, but none of these got him to the next level…he deserves better, always liked him and he could party me under the table. I have had a run in with Bill Mahar myself, he is lets say not a sweetheart…

Thanks Craig truly appreciate it. I obvious got from that interview that he had become involved in social causes and put his comedy on the back-burner. Seemed like a good guy. To bad others become big and forget there friends. Thanks Again

When was the last time Edwards had to eat crow and humble himself while the world watched?
I agree, Tiger owes the public nothing, he plays golf, he didnt get a blow job in the Oval Office, he isn’t an elected official. He plays golf. What he should have done was just remain mute, come back for the masters, and shut some critics up with his game.

Y’all obviously don’t know anything about 12 Step Programs. One MUST apologize, and then make amends. It was not a press conference. It was a requirement of his therapeutic program. Yes, he should have done it about 9 or 10 weeks ago, but he was still in denial then. It was actually a hybrid format, which was not good. He should not have lectured us about his privacy etc. That was him still trying to control his life, instead of completely admitting that his life is out of control. And I didn’t believe him about the lack of domestic violence in that household–tho I did appreciate him standing up for Elin. I think he is lying about that. Was she just running down the street at 2:34 am with that nine iron?? Of course not!
As for Craig and Johnny, you don’t seem to understand that addiction is not about quantity. It is defined by taking actions that are clearly detrimental, dangerous, unproductive–you know it but you can’t help yourself. That is addiction.
