<p>Tone, Tiger is sponsored by Ping, I think Callaway should contact Ein, and make a “big Bertha” type club and call it the Elin</p>
<p>Better yet, have a gaming company make a game on how to club your husband. Eagle for driving a golf ball into the car and knocking him unconcious. Birdy for hitting car and making him cause a 1 car accident. Par for hitting out the back window. Bogey for running down the street. Heck, it could even be set up like the golf game, winds, distance, club, size of car, etc.</p>
<p>I bet a lot of women who have a game system and they found out their husband cheated on them would buy it to vent their frustrations… think about it Elin could become a millionaire because of his dalliance, and it would be hysterical to see her game be more popular than his!
TRYING to add levity!</p>
<p>Actually, one of the worst to use. The Calloway fibre shaft is too delicate and breaks easily. An old two-iron, with “Rifle” steel shaft is what I’d recommend.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Uhhn, nope. Tiger carries Nike in his bag (remember the famous Phil Nichelsen quote about “inferior equipment”), except for his putter which is a Scotty Cameron (made by Titleist). He sometimes drives with Mizuno. But no Pings.</p>
<p>You know, I’m thinking that someone like Roger Federer (his tennis buddy is newly married with a baby) is taking note of all of this. Maybe even hiding his tennis rackets…they’re metal and can do some damage. Or at least staying out of nightclubs. His wife is ex pro player with a nasty serve.</p>
<p>This really cracked me up! bap, you have something here. If “your game” ever makes it - you have a life long customer here. It will be my staple bridal shower present. :)</p>
<p>intparent-- actually you are somewhat correct because the articles came from 1999 and 2000 and the US 30% national stat came from a DNA company. The 10% English stats included “private” requests (the woman seeking to figure it out) where the woman was wrong 1 out of 7 times. However, even as to the US Ohio testing company (DNA Diagnostics): </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>However, as the article indicates it is now standard operating procedure for many attorneys representing the husband to ask for DNA tests. I do appeals, but the trial lawyers I talk to have indicated that they are experiencing over 10% in straying married moms when those tests are done.</p>
<p>Also, the article doesn’t mention what also is now occurring. Either during the divorce, the wife-mom, or after the divorce the putative biological father or, on a few occassions, the child, claims the husband was **not **the biological father. (I’ve had to handle one appeal on this type issue). Very high percentage of these **when they are appealed **reflect that the husband was not the father.</p>
<p>Also, I handled one appeal where the mother was married and the father was married. The mom sued the “other” married man for paternity. She established his paternity. But, the court ordered most of the support to be paid into a trust administered by a third party (mom didn’t get to control it). The bio-Dad’s wife never divorced him for cheating, but the mom’s husband and the mom did an agreed divorce after it was resolved that the trust arrangement was going to stand.</p>
<p>So, the women trying to get child support include those who were married at the time the child was conceived by “the other man.”</p>
<p>“We’ve learned much about Tiger in the past week, little of it good. We’ve learned he wants all of your attention when he’s playing golf, or trying to sell you something, but then gets angry when you want to know any more about him. We’ve learned that in many ways, he’s just another outrageously rich, self-centered jock.”</p>
<p>“He will transcend this game…and bring to the world…a humanitarianism…which has never been known before. The world will be a better place to live in…by virtue of his existence…and his presence… I acknowledge only a small part in that…in that I know that I was personally selected by God himself…to nurture this young man…and bring him to the point where he can make his contribution to humanity… This is my treasure… Please accept it…and use it wisely… Thank you.”</p>
<p>:eek: You’d think he was talking about raising the baby Jesus.</p>
<p>07dad, that is still not a representative sample. All those people are in divorce court or custody disputes. I agree that a certain % of the time children are fathered by someone other than the husband or man who THINKS he is the father. But I do not believe the number approaches 10% in the US.</p>
<p>Ellemenope. and that is why he felt he could get away with it. Maybe his dad should have taught him compassion too. In the end it is arrogance that caused this problem. Arrogance to believe he could get away with it, arrogance to believe if he got caught there would not be he** to pay, arrogance to believe that his mate should be thankful she has him, afterall, before he married her she was just the nanny for Jasper Parnevik.</p>
<p>Ellemenope-Yes the dad sounds so egotistical. Sad he thinks a golfer(and I like sports) is the next thing since sliced bread. Hope Tiger is not passing on this craziness to his kids.</p>
<p>A good lesson in humility would have also stood Tiger Woods in good stead.</p>
<p>I’m not so sure that his dad was as egotistical as he was a man on a perceived mission. I think he saw golf as the vehicle which Tiger would use to make non-golf contributions to the world…kind of like how Bill Gates uses his money and his standing for many causes that affect millions.</p>
<p>I think his dad would be VERY disappointed that his son turned out to be “just another outrageously rich, self-centered jock,” as Christine Brennan wrote.</p>
