^^^^LOL
I am surprised that his sponsors haven't come out and said they are dropping him....I sure as hell would. I definitely won't be running out to supporting any company that still endorses this scumbag and I won't be watching any PGA Tour event with him in it....which kinda pisses me off since I won't be watching any majors from now on. If the PGA comes out and suspends him, like they should, then I would watch majors again. |

but gatorade has stated they are not dropping the product because of this and they are still working with Tiger. They need to grow some balls and say that "we cannot endorse someone who lacks moral standards such as tiger woods"
Any company that continues to endorse him tells me they want their name and products associated with lying cheating scumbags....and personally, I can't support companies that support people like that.
Hell, I would have more respect for a company that came out and told me they test all their products on baby seals then a company that supports scum like Tiger. |

| Cheetah Woods will always get sponsors.....I just think these companies are making a mistake by not addressing the moral issues present. The problem is the target audience is men from 18-35 and most of them either don't care that he is a cheating man whore or worse the actually think he's even cooler because he is a cheating man whore. There will be little fall out to the companies if they maintain their relationship with Cheetah. |

It will pass just like the Kobe incident will pass. Companies will sponsor him later down the road if they don't want to sponsor him now. He made mistakes, he'll pay for it hardcore for the next 2 years minimum but it will just be another chapter in his life.
It'll be tough going on his first tournament back from this ordeal. Same with all the judges he'll have to face if they get a divorce (I hope they don't get one, I feel bad for the kid unless they get back together). Poor Elin, she looks pretty foxy. I wonder what's going down within the walls of his house. |

There is a third option: we care, and don't like it, but don't follow him for his person life, rather what he does on the golf course. I have always maintaned this attitude towards all entertainers. I follow their professional careers, not their personal ones.
I'll continue to watch him on the course, any cheating issues, him and his wife need to deal with those. |

This whole Tiger ordeal raises some good moral questions such as "where do you draw the line between athlete and person?"....or "where do you draw the line between art and the artist who created it?"
Do fans of Tiger as an athlete change their opinion of him because of the fact that he is being revealed as one of the biggest players in sports? |

| I am actually even more interested now to see if he can maintain his exceptional level of competitiveness in light of these problems. |

my issue isn't with Tiger but its with those that endorse him. I could care less what he does in his personal life however; I do have issues with companies that endorse him and endorse what he does in his personal life. In every endorsement contract there is a morality clause which allows the companies to walk away from the contacts. I have issue with these companies not doing this when clearly they would do it if it was pretty much any other athlete. |
