What do you think about the Tiger Woods’ situation?

• Simply put, absurd, untimely, offensive and laughable. How’s that?

• I don’t believe there is any redemption in Tiger’s future. Sponsors are dropping him like a hot potato; people have lost respect; and he is the butt of many jokes. You can get away with a lot of things in this life and much of it can be forgiving, but screwing around on your wife with not just one but several women is just something I think we can all agree on that is very sick and twisted behavior. I don’t know what was going on in this guy’s head, but he sure played his fans and who thought they knew him for fools.

• Please! Can’t you ask a question that somebody really cares about? Nobody cares whether Tiger Woods was faithful to his wife or not. All any of us care about is whether this guy wins his next tournament or not. His lifestyle is of no interest to anyone. Wake up, BCR! Being faithful is so outdated.

• I think Tiger was right to apologize to the public, but I think it might have meant more if his wife had been in the audience. Apparently, she’s not going to be one of those women who stands by her man. I’m glad. He is despicable.

• I think I’ll keep watching him and rooting for him, just like we all did for Bill Clinton. We are a twisted world, aren’t we?

• Who cares? We’ve got people in our midst who are being paid by taxpayer money, and they can’t even get their name in the newspaper for doing the same thing. If we can’t report on the local guy who does it, why should we care about the pro golfer? The BCR should be ashamed of itself for not reporting the facts in the same type of situation that happened in (a local) school district.

• He’s history. He might golf again, but he’s lost a lot of respect and money – both things needed to feed his unfaithful ego. Change the channel, please!

• I’m done watching him. My wife is too. Too bad though because he’s a hell of a golfer, and he worked hard to get where he’s at. He also played a tremendous amount too, and I don’t mean on the golf course either.

• If you’re looking for a role model, you’ve got to look upwards. Tiger would do well to do the same thing.

• Leave the guy alone. He’s certainly able to ruin his life by himself. Fore!

• His apology was weak. I can’t believe the networks interrupted their programming to air it. What a disgrace!

Next week’s discussion point is:

March 17 is St. Patrick’s Day. If you had a pot of gold, how would you spend it?
