MY THOUGHTS ON TIGER!
The Tiger is now the prey. The King of Golf came crashing down a few months ago when the allegations of his infidelity surfaced after a public aleraction between him and wife. But after three months, the Tiger decided its time to face the public and to beg for forgiveness. Obviously he is trying to rebuild his reputation.
Some people think the man deserves to be humiliated, but this is what I think: The main is obviously sorry for what he did and the public should give him another chance. I believe that the public is not ready to accept him because to many, he represents men's evil treatments of women, which in true to a degree. However, if they dislike him based on how rich he had become, then it is another story. But the man i still human.
It takes guts to apologize, and to come down from the top to the bottom of the "moral ladder" is something that many people don't want to do. Bill Clinton attempted to hide the fact that he cheated on his wife with a White House Intern and in the last minute he apologized to the country. Evangelical preacher Ted Haggard moved people to tears everythime he preached the gospel, but later admitted that he had had a gay-sexual affair and was addicated to Meth. He apologized for it, and now going through social rehabilitation. So if the most powerful man in the World (Clinton) and the man whom many Christian followers held to be their role model fell from grace, then so can any human being!
Mr. Woods should be given a second chance to live a normal life. It doesn't matter whether he made billions of dollars--he is still a human being. And if he admitted his dishonesty and cheating and asked for forgivenness, what else do we need from him? True forgiveness preceeds true acknowledgement of one's short-comings!
