Tiger Woods Makes Public Statement
Someday in the history of Google, when they make a top 10 Most Searched List of 2010, I am guessing that “Tiger Woods” will be in the top… oh, I don’t know… 5? His late night car accident back in November and the tabloid fury that followed will quite possibly be one of the most followed news stories of this very new decade. This morning at 8am, after 3 months of withdrawing from the public eye, Woods finally came out and made a public statement, surrounded by a small group of close associates and reporters.
He apologized to his family and friends, and those who looked up to him, asking “to find room in your heart to one day believe in me again.” He said his actions were “wrong and foolish” and said, “I have a lot of work to do and I intend to dedicate myself to doing it.”
You could tell the whole announcement was a little scripted, and perhaps he had help from a speech writer, but all in all, you can tell he’s genuinely sorry. If you ask us, it sounded a lot like he wished he didn’t have to make such a public statement about such private matters. Any way you slice it, the guy got some (a whole bunch of) extra-marital booty, and now he feels bad. Can’t that be enough?
We believe in you, Tiger!
