Kind of ironic that he might not only have lost the yacht, but also what it was named after....  | Maybe AFTER he became almost as big as the game....but it was all created by his handlers, media and the fans.
Since when does driving a Lincoln, wearing a Tag watch, drinking Gatorade and wearing Nike clothing show that you are morally good or bad?

a great athlete to win 64 tournaments on the course and bed over a dozen women off and apparently with the vigor of an athlete at that!

Tiger has won more tournaments this decade than most golfers have won in an entire career! He's more than worthy of this award. What he has done in his personal life was not and should not have been part of the deciding factor.

puhjols won 3 mvp awards, summitt won 3 national championships and johnson has won 4 consecutive sprint cup championships. and yes, the award is based on athletic accomplishment. i find it rather amusing that more than half of the votes were submitted after woods' traffic accident.

possibly with help?
sorry, i'm not discrediting his accomplishments. but even if his image was still squeeky clean, he doesn't get my vote.
imho, golf is more a mental game than physical. and yes, that does defeat he may have won many of those tourneys on juice.
i think winning 7 straight tour de france's is far more physically demanding than playing 4 days of golf. i think driving a very heavy stock car is far more physically
demanding than playing golf.
using your analogy, then roger fedderer (apologies for spelling) has equivalent accomplishments.
my point is there were several more athlets who actually participate in a physically demanding sport that were worthy of consideration.
the fact that most of the ap sports writers cast their vote after the beginning of woods' scandal is not a coincidence.
