A Tiger Apology Post

Arianna Huffington: Tiger Travels the Stations of the PR Cross

Tiger Woods doesn't owe us a thing. Not an apology. Not an explanation. Not contrition. Nothing. Unless a public figure has broken the law, there is only one legitimate answer to the illegitimate probing of private lives: "It's none of your business." That said, purely on its own terms, Tiger's apology was, pardon the expression, par for the course. You can just picture his handlers working on the statement and going down a checklist. Accept blame: check. Look right into camera: check. Touch hand to chest: check. Watery eyes: check. Defend wife: check. Accuse the media: check. Hug mother: check. Go back to rehab: check. It was déjà vu all over again. Another public figure navigating the now-requisite Stations of the PR Cross.

I have one thought: Tiger is not sorry for what he did; he is sorry he got caught!

Tiger is Contrite...hopefully, he will now allow the Head on his shoulders to do the thinking...

i feel sorry for Tiger. None of us can imagine the temptations this man has to deal with. Who among us could say "no", over, and over, and over? I think his wife needs to be supportive and help him with his self esteem and his addiction.
