Thread: Tiger Woods Perception Poll

Since this topic has been hotly debated in recent months, let's ask the Sports Forum how they view Tiger Woods postmortem.

Terrible husband....great golfer.

Legendary golfer, disgusting human being

Not sure why should we even care about someone's personal life... unless it's a friend or a relative. I think the media and the public are too obsessed about celebrities and their dirty laundry. I don't approve or even understand his actions, but IMHO, what he does off the court, and especially in bed, is his wife's problem - none of our business.

Of course, if you were making a role model out of him for your kids, or something, you would be upset to learn about his sins. But if you simply admired him as a golfer, I don't see why that would change.

I put him between Ben (idiot who puts himself in horrible situations that will ultimately ruin his football career) and Cromartie (6 children in 5 states, had to get an advance from his new team to pay back child support) on the scum meter.

ahhh....a breath of fresh air....

Whether right or wrong, it's going to be awfully tough to root for someone like this from here on out.

Yeah, I get it. His personal life is personal. But that won't make me forget the sleezy things he did to his wife and kids. Unfortunately that will always be in the back of my mind and I just can't root for a bad person to succeed in life.

Oops! Sorry...I was going to post a multi-question opinion poll, but the polling options were limited and I thought I cancelled this thread...as hand wipes egg from face.

Now why did you have to go ahead and bring logic into this thread?
