Ok, I’ll be the first to admit it: I took a few well-deserved swipes at Tiger, for the sake of humor. But tonight I saw something that damn near made me feel bad about this.
Damn near.
My wife was watching some sort of entertainment show, which was doing a promo on an upcoming rag’s coverage of `a Tiger you’ve never seen before’. One of the headlines was that he preferred the company of waitresses and porn stars.
I looked at my wife and asked what guy doesn‘t want to spend time with porn stars?
My wife immediately agreed (and not to humor me, as she usually does).
I beseeched her to kindly change the channel. It was making me sick.

Even leftystrat has to draw the line somewhere. I honestly didn’t care about the fellow when he was on top and I don’t care any more about him now, except for the sake of a topical giggle. So the guy blew lots of money on hookers and adult film `actresses’…. it’s none of my business… after all, it’s his money.
I also acknowledge that as a celebrity of sorts, Tiger Woods has no serious expectation of privacy.
I don’t even blame the tabloid rags for the choice of topics. They’re just making a buck on what sells.
No, I blame YOU. You buy this crap. You feed into it. You’re so hung up on this aggravated stupidity that you aren’t paying attention to what is really happening in the world. There’s a reason that the White House releases bad news after work on Friday.
If you stop purchasing this urine, it won’t sell. Think about it. The reason that spam is so prevalent is because 12+% of you click on it (heaven help us).
