Allsports Commentary: Media has Tiger by the tail

So how do you like the trees being sacrificed these days in the print news on poor Tiger. Its a good thing there’s sports news and sports on the web to help reduce the punky burden.

What do you think? Is Earl Woods rolling over in his grave, seeing the image he nurtured for so many years come crashing down around his son. I guess Tiger could have used his guidance now. Considering Tiger has handled this whole affair or maybe affairs would be more like it, as if it were a live hand grenade. The schoolboy, the dear in the headlights, by not coming forward he has fed the feeding frenzy by the press

Earl could have helped him considering innuendo is now surfacing that Earl had some experience in these matters.

No Tiger should have Manned up and admitted the indiscretions. But I guess the problem was there were just too many to come clean on. If he had of just admitted to one and left it at that, no names,  then all the women may have thought he was talking about them. Of course that is if none of them knew of each other. If they did he was screwed any way he looked at it.

If he did make some admission, Joe public likely would have gone, wow that’s a surprise and carried on with their lives, instead his inaction has just made it fester.

So now Tiger is taking time away from the game. This means big money to the PGA and the Television networks. His chase of  Jack Nicklaus’s records are on hold. Jack’s likely shaking his head thnking, Tiger you Dumb ass.

Allsports has to ask the question. If and when Tiger returns , will he still be the nerves of steel golfer that made him what he was?
