Cheetah Woods

Just speaking for a different perspective ...

I love my Golf but when it comes to infidelity no man deserves respect ..


Only if the lady was at fault then every bloke would be supportinh him .. she wasnt the fault was entirely his doing ...


Because he couldnt keep his boabie to only one lady that being his wife ... and the lady wasn't up for swinging or entertaining escorts ie 3somes to feed his addiction
 
You should explained yourself more by what you were asking ..


Well I at the present Obama not matter how many dislike his actions thus far imo he could have been in with a chance of becoming a possible president .. if he ever decided to enter politics ...

And if Arnie could become imo he would have won the race since due to the law you have to be born in America he couldnt enter yet he can become a govenor ..


And Clint doing a spell of governorship pity I would love to see him in the hot seat
 
Golf needs him because he is the greatest he is the most exciting golfer to watch he is the best shot maker ever and quite frankly every single proffessional athlete is a prima donna at some stage.

Sorry Screwback but I was asking why golf needs him.

Even accepting (which I definitely don't) your opinions "he is the greatest he is the most exciting golfer to watch he is the best shot maker ever", that does not answer the question.

Agreed, top professional athletes are often prima donnas, but you did not pick up on the truculence and spitting. I suppose that leads into similarities with football players at the higher levels who are also, in my humble opinion, vastly overpaid for what they do. There again, they cheat as well but in a different way.
:eek:
 
he has been responsible for a huge amount of youngsters taking up the game worldwide

And your source references for this statement are ?? I would say that many top golfers have inspired many people to play. Hogan, Palmer, Player, Nicklaus, Faldo, the list is endless.


Tiger gives more back financially to the grass roots of golf annually than any player in history of our sport and the sooner he is back the better.

So are you saying that this will stop just because he has been caught out and won't be playing for a while, or ever again.

Yes, he has won more money but he has also sold golf to the world by his achievements when people were asking who is going to be the next golfing hero.

So if he has already sold golf to the world, why does golf still need him? And just who were these people who were asking who is going to be the next golfing hero?

Muhammed Ali..... is still recognised as the greatest sportsmen ever in almost every poll.

Don't quite know why you brought him into the debate but I would like to see your sources for this statement as well. I don't dispute that he was a great boxer and ambassador for the "sport", but our Henry was robbed. :mad:


Anyone who thinks golf doesn't need him is talking out their arse.

I think that some people need to extract their heads from up their own ....'s and stop all this hero worship.

Before any decide to accuse me of Woods bashing (steady now :D) I have not made any criticisms about him, his playing abilities or his private life. I merely asked the question "why does golf need him" and, as yet, I have seen no valid verifiable explanation.
 
Because if he turns up at a tournament, the gate and also the TV audience goes up by 30% minimum. Lose all those viewers and spectators, you will lose alot of the sponsors. No sponsors, no comps, no tour, no promotion of the game, less members, clubs closing, end of game.

Yes, golf existed before Tiger, but it wasn't competing against the Xbox and facebook.
 
This wont affect him one jot, and I wouldn't be suprised if he doubles his usual $3,000,000 appearence fee for his first few comps, the sponsors will be begging him to come back.

Pants

Fair comment nobody likes to see anyone spit but surely the cameras can look away because it is generally after the shot.

You asked why golf needs him and i answered the question on his GAME. He is the greatest at all the things i stated and if you cant see it your missing out!!
 
You only have to look at the veiwing figures to know golf needs Tiger, when Tiger is in contention the TV veiwing figures are around a bout double a week where he is not.
 
Pants I refuse to believe that you are so stupid you need me to spell out the obvious. If you do need reasons/answers/sources then your head is well and truly up your rectum.
 
Or conversely, if he is 5 shots ahead in the last round, I switch off and dont watch at all.

I dont miss him one bit when he's not plying or not in contention, I cant stand the guy.

And I dont think this has stopped yet, I think there is more to the 8mths out of the game with 'Knee surgery'.
Beleive me, as someone who has lived with big left knee problems since I was 18, I still dont think that anyone could compete like he did in the last round of the US Open with ANYTHING like the supposed injury he had.

Is it any co-incidence that he took 8mths out of the game just as the game introduced Drug testing, and that by his standards, he hasnt done as well since.
Add in the rather incredulous womanising into the situation, and the fact that he is now linked to someone being investigated for supplying 'Performance enhancing' drugs to sportsmen, and it all adds up to a helluva lot of questions.

It wouldnt surprise me one bit to see TW stripped of a hell of a lot more than just his family by the time this has all gone away.

:D :D :D...stupid post of the week goes to you. :D
 
by his standards

If you are going to quote me, do it properly.

He has freely admitted that its only Majors that motivate him, so winning none this year, it has clearly been a bad year.

Hell, he didnt even make the cut at the Open. (Good)

With all the horizontal jogging he's been doing, its no wonder. And I maintain that his worsened petulance in the last 2 years has probably everything to do with the fact that he knew it was all gonna come crashing down soon enough.

He deserves every thing he now gets.
 
And I maintain.........It wouldnt surprise me one bit to see TW stripped of a hell of a lot more than just his family by the time this has all gone away.

Wonder how many of you will be back-pedalling on your support then eh ?

Watch this space.........

I wont be back-pedalling because i like him simply for his golfing talent and that he does better than anyone else.
 
Chris, I wouldn't bother trying to engage in reasoned debate. Dodger will just spout off a list of unsubstantiated Rafa-style FACTS and apparently you will be talking out of your Harris.

Anyone that thinks golf needs Woods is a moron without even the most basic understanding of economics. Golf would very much like him, but that is an awfully long way from needing him. To suggest that there would be no tour (as someone has) without him is mind-bogglingly stupid.

The Ryder Cup manages perfectly well without him (including when he turns up, he certainly doesn't get involved in it) and so will the world game of golf. Yes it will change a bit, no it won't collapse.

There is not a single sport in the world that has an individual participant that is more important or bigger than the game.

Oh, and for the person who compared Clay/Ali to Woods - I suggest you look up some history books and see what the sociopolitical ramifications of what Clay/Ali did were. Clay/Ali operated on a political stage as much as in a ring. Woods is to political awareness (or general intellect) what George W Bush is to spontaneous linguistic flair. Woods can be compared (rather pointlessly) to Clay/Ali in sporting terms only. As men, they are leagues apart.
 
I am simply saying there is no other golfer on the planet that is as exciting to watch as Tiger you never know what he is going to do next on the course.

All other golfers whereas they are good they seem boring compared to him

Anyone that thinks golf needs Woods is a moron without even the most basic understanding of economics.

as for that i must be a Moron
