Who said golf wasn't an exciting sport? Certainly not tabloid news. Ooops...I meant to say "mainstream media." Actually, this is all over the new media as well (Fox, Talk Radio, etc.)
OK... I may as well follow the pack and offer my own entry. Here we go. This is what I have to say about Tiger Woods finding himself under a new and different kind of spotlight:
N O T H I N G!
Absolutely nothing! This is between him and his family. It's none of my business. It's none of your business, and let me break it to the media: Just because the man is a famous, talented, golf celebrity, that doesn't automatically make it your business either! You may fall back on the tired cliche', "People have a right to know," but frankly, that's a lot of hogwash. The people only have a right to know when it's news that affects their lives. I don't mean to say this isn't important news. I mean to say this should not be considered news, period!
Apart from the privacy families deserve, it's not like there aren't one or two more important things going on in our country right now, matters that are history making, paths our nation has never traveled down before. And we're going to instead focus on Tiger Woods? Sad low time for you, America.
