Nude Tiger Woods pictures?

As mistresses keep surfacing, so too have photos that are allegedly (and maybe NOT him) of Tiger Woods naked.

From a Life & Style press release:

It looks like the rumors of naked Tiger Woods photos may be true! Playgirl's rep Daniel Nardicio confirms to Life & Style that the online magazine has received photos claiming to be Tiger sans clothes. But until the photo is proven to be real, don't expect to see it online. "We're currently trying to authenticate the photos before we make any decisions on purchasing the Tiger Woods pics and ascertaining the value," Nardicio tells Life & Style.

Perez HIlton hears it may be cell phoned pics of Tiger's genitalia.

If they did not want the media involved then they should have kept it behind their four walls. End of story.

They INVITED this when they took it past the front door and onto a public street. And I agree that it's being over reported but new things keep surfacing. If Tiger was not going to open up about who he is and what happened then he all but invited others to do it for him.

An affair? Have you been hiding the past few days.

And I disagree about this. Why? Because basketball and golf have VERY different socio-economic not to mention racial audiences. Golf is still pretty much a white upper middle class/upper class sport. For a guy like Tiger to out sleaze everyone on the tour then it will make it very difficult for him to rebound with the public who watches the sport.

However Kobe's wife is young and dumb; high school sweetheart who doesn't know any different world.
Elin was a world-class model, independent before she met El Tigre. Tiger isn't making this all go away with an expensive diamond.

I said his career could be over depending on the situation. If it was a case of chest pain with Elin's momma then of course not. But if, as someone suggested, he went OJ or she had decided to end it all then it could have caused an end to his career.

As of now, will he bounce back on the course? Probably. But if there ends up being naked photos and more women coming forward then his endorsements are going to be gone for the foreseeable future. And though he might play golf and win he will never be considered the champion and GENTLEMAN he once was. That part of his career will be OVER.

Just to set the record straight, the media worded this whole situation funny. By them putting "advanced life support" in quotation marks it makes the whole situation sound more serious than it is. I just got certified as an EMT-B here in Florida, which is Basic Life Support or "BLS." All ALS means is that the paramedics and or fire dept were the first on scene, and judging by the picture this patient wasn't even intubated and is breathing adequately.
They make Advanced Life Support sound like its some high tech machine keeping the patient alive.

No, unusal, to say the least, things are happening in that house and because they are being taken OUTSIDE the home they are subject to public scrutiny.

Again, I said it was depending on the circumstances. When the story first broke it was a blonde hair woman on "advanced life support."

Ultimately he's not responsible for his MIL health issues but the timing is not great for him either.

The Swedish press would be interested because the Governor is the MIL to the most famous golfer in the world and she took ill in his home during a time when the golfer himself suffered a mysterious injury and has had many negative stories about him in the press. Stories that prompted her to leave Sweden and take a leave from her job to be with her daughter. :doh!:

BS. Think that if you want but there is nothing racist about stating a fact that basketball is watched and supported by a more racially and financially diverse audience than golf is.

No, what is racist is that you assume "questionable indescretions" are are ok if you are black audience member, but not ok if you are white audience member. You are saying that different races have different moral standards.

No, that was not the point. The point was the audience of basketball being a more diverse audience of many income brackets and races will tolerate a cheating player because it seems to come with the territory of team sports in general. It could be football, baseball, soccer. Would David Beckham come under this type of scrutiny, hell yes. Would his fans forgive him. Hell yes.

But golf and tennis are different sports. They are not only single player sports but they also tend to be played and supported by different social, economic, and race makeup than the team sports.

If Roger Federer had done this then you bet his fans would be upset and he'd lose sponsors. He's crafted this image as a gentleman and a sportsman and now as a family man. The fans who support him would be more deeply affected and turned off by his behavior than David Beckham fans would be given the exact same behavior.

So cheating on his wife, not with a beloved girlfriend, but with porn stars and whatever else he wants is not a dark behavior? The self destructiveness of it all does not indicate a deeper and complex part of his persona? The financial risk and personal risk taking does not signify something?

But in your instance was anyone at risk for losing MILLIONS of dollars either in prenup or endorsements? What about price cost of lost reputation? Sorry, the cheating on our level, the peons, is a whole different ball game than that of these famous people who have money, fame, power, and prestige at stake and can't help themselves.
