Tiger, Tiger, Tiger …

Being a Phil Mickelson fan over the years I should be rejoicing at the difficulties that Tiger is facing and will face on the golf links if and when he comes out again.  But alas, I cannot rejoice at these revelations because it affects innocent people and children.  I don’t pretend to know anything about the situation but I do know that you don’t behave in this type of shameless arrogant behavior.  My wife and I will be celebrating our 37th wedding anniversary Thursday and it’s beyond my comprehension how someone could do something like this to his wife and children.  Those poor kids might now be scarred for life because of the behavior of their father.  If you’re going to choose to live that lifestyle then have the decency to divorce your wife first.  Who in their wrong mind would believe that you could live the life style and get away with it?  Unfortunately, this is not a private matter.

I never had any bad feelings towards Tiger it’s just that I’ve always liked Lefty better.  There’s no rhyme or reason to it.  But now … I wouldn’t pay a wooden nickle to see Tiger play.  You just don’t do that to your wife and family.  No words can excuse this type of behavior.  I will never see this person in the same light as before.  Someone who had the world by the tail and is believed to be the greatest golfer of all time will no longer be mentioned in the same breath as Bobby Jones, Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Ben Hogan, and others.  Instead he will be mentioned in the same breath as Bill Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, John Edwards, and Mark Sanford.  What a shame.

Just because you have all that fame and money does not allow someone to behave in any manner that they choose.  Actions have consequences … Time to pay the piper!!
