Professional athletes. 2. The corner boys and their boss, because to them those are the only two people from a similar background who are making it in this world. <br /><br />As far as Tiger goes, I agree with Chris that he is now only "sorry" because he got caught. But that is just my take, and his personal life is really none of my matter. And maybe this is just my take on it, but I tend to separate athletes on the field and off the field. (for what it's worth I loved everything tiger did on the course)<br /><br />If you're looking for the perfect athlete you're more than likely going to end up in a failed quest. Just appreciate what they do on the field/court, it's a lot easier that way.Steve Lattimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16150473421615296165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673413627090761779.post-16113708456750956302009-12-16T13:18:43.314-06:002009-12-16T13:18:43.314-06:00I hope Tiger Woods is still really good at golf.

I hope he comes out, gives zero sound clips, and beats the shit out of everyone in every major he plays in. <br /><br />Following athletes as role models to begin with is kind of silly. Decrying society for following athletes as role models is sillier.Icehousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07397555220247230163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673413627090761779.post-51020094087969388922009-12-16T12:21:18.899-06:002009-12-16T12:21:18.899-06:00You're entitled to your opinion, but I'm q...You're entitled to your opinion, but I'm quite positive you have no idea how Tiger feels about what he's done. No one but him does. Plenty of people that cheat on their spouses clean up and are upstanding husbands/wives after they've been exposed. <br /><br />I personally find it terrible that some people hope that Tiger doesn't make it through this okay. You may not like him, and no one agrees with what he's done. But, everyone deserves a second chance.deafmutemagichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04554449098739438107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673413627090761779.post-38738821842682276182009-12-16T11:42:27.478-06:002009-12-16T11:42:27.478-06:00Look, Ron Artest can have all the compansion for W...Look, Ron Artest can have all the compansion for Woods he wants. Maybe he is even comforted by the fact they have some "things" in common. But calling him a "perfect role model" is ludicrous. I never felt Woods to be a perfect role model on or off the course. For those that thought he was, they can no longer. Tiger did not make a "mistake", he exhibited repeated bad behavoir. I believe Woods is not sorry for his actions, only that he has been exposed...........Chris Agrestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05026776386390107878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673413627090761779.post-63051428129207717872009-12-16T09:05:34.019-06:002009-12-16T09:05:34.019-06:00Jason Whitlock is jealous.Jason Whitlock is jealous.Steve Lattimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16150473421615296165noreply@blogger.com
