True... I know there are many unsaved ppl that are good role models andhave good morals... I know women thats have unsaved husbands that treat them much better than some in the church. Tiger kept his personal life personal, from what I have read, he didn't the limelight, ppl put him up on paddle stool... He separated his party life (which we didn't see before the so called accident) from his professional life as a golfer, and never pretended to be Mr. Perfect and his wife is not all that perfect, she have some dirty laundries too...
I am tried of hearing all him dirt... black men need to learn that white ppl will be your friend today and your worse enermy tomorrow, they come against you all at one... Most are not true friends. What I see is jealousy... he is a billioniar, throught him many golfer begin millioniars... and doors have open for many, that wasn't open before Tiger came along. Some of the same ppl who downing him have their dirt too, they just not important enough.

You are painting with a broad brush here. You, nor I, have any proof that white people will be your friend today and your worse enemy tomorrow. Actually, that is just not true. Many times, we speak out of our own fears. This is a very prejudiced statement as you have included "white people" and not just specific examples. How do you know this? Do you know "most" white people? |

Many times, we speak out of our own fears. This is a very prejudiced statement as you have included "white people" and not just specific examples. It is true, I see it too often, especially in politics.... They go out of their way to set the black politican up, you know so called friends and stab them in he back. Yes... I went to school (College) with them 3 different schools and work... I had to always watch my back... and I used to go to a white church... very racist... This was during the time Jessie Jackson was running for president. I don't care for jJackson and didn't plan to vote for him, but my God these so called saved white folks was hateful toward him, out of all who were running. Most of his fellow golfers are downing him... If it wasn't for him, they would not be making as much money as they do... Where his friends? Only the black ball players been trying to help him... Whoopi almost walked off the view to stop them from downing him. It like another OJ situation. Our sins should be coverd with the blood through repentance... |

All I am going to say is that I agree with what ASWSOY has said. We need to be watchful over the things we say regarding people especially if we are naming the name of Jesus.
We might even need to take our heart to GOD to have it examined closely before we become a stumbling block to ourselves and a rock of offense to others.

1. If we want to make very broad statements, we should make sure that we have proof....with that in mind, can you name at LEAST 10 times this has happened, who the politicians were and proof that they were set up. Many times we have 1 or 2 incidents that we tend to believe it means ALL the time...
2. I went to a pretty much all white middle and high school. I use to visit an all white church, things were fine. But you know what? I was around a lot of black folks at church and on message boards during the Bush Era and "these so called" black folks were hateful towards him.
3. It appears that they were making a LOT of money but each year, it goes up. I started with:
PGA Tour "pot" -- 1995 $2mil; 1996 $2.4mil; 1997 - $2.6mil 1998 - $3mil; 1999 - $3.5mil ------ 2005 - $6.5mil
Masters -- 1998 - $3.2mil; 1999 - $4mil ------ 2005 - $7mil
So looking at these numbers, I don't think that he had much to do with them making as much as they do.
4. We would be hard pressed to say that his friends aren't there for him. Just like we haven't heard much FROM Tiger, maybe his friends are staying the same way. The public doesn't need to know who his friends are and what they're doing. People are too nosy anyways.
