1. Did he use the driver as a steering wheel club?
Not to make light of the tragedy, but there are some good jokes waiting for late night comedians.

26. I love watching him play too
But I often say WTF is he gonna do with that? LOL

Then he draws it around a tree and onto the green. THe best one is when he was right next to a tree and hit the ball like the tree wasn't there bending the club around the tree on the follow through.

2. I don't think so. He's so accurate in everything, and strong.
I think there's more to the story.

12. From his official Web Site
Tiger Woods was in a minor car accident outside his home last night.

He was admitted, treated and released today in good condition.

We appreciate very much everyone's thoughts and well wishes.


I suspect he had a little dustup with the missus and was driving while angry. Now that he's been released, I guess it's true that alcohol wasn't involved. But he could be still be charged with reckless driving or something.

14. If you have a car wreck @ 2 am, are in and out of consciousness, get taken
to the hospital, and you wife had to break the back window of your car to rescue you
then I think we are passed the point of "a minor car accident." I think the community
where he lives has it's own police force and no doubt protects those who live there.


I wish him and his family well and hope that they are left alone to deal w/ what
needs to be dealt w/.

16. Even if it comes out that she burst the window out before the crash and caused it

do you hope they are left alone then?

17. kind of
Edited on Fri Nov-27-09 07:35 PM by Botany
part of me likes to see the rich get nocked down a few pegs and another
part of me hopes that the family gets left alone because everybody is human
and after all and somethings are best left private.

20. Rich or not, the criminal's relation to the victim shouldn't matter in an attempted murder
investigation and prosecution.

24. Now we're on the right track
Enquirer comes out this week with pictures and story of another woman with him at the Australian Open, Huff Post picks it up, now we have what looks to be a domestic dispute. Wife with golf club. The spin is that she broke the SUV back window to get him out of the front seat after he hit the hydrant?? He had to have been going slow enough that the air bags didn't open. Yet we are to believe all the doors and windows were damaged and the back window had to be broken? How did wife get him out the back window of an SUV from the driver's seat, btw?

More likely- fight over the other woman and the publicity, wife says get the hell out and chases him out with a golf club, starts breaking car windows as he tries to drive off, he hits fire hydrant and then a tree while she is chasing him and running around the car. A lot more realistic than the cover-up stories sound. Have you heard the spinning of the village mayor? Laughable.
