There's a [Tiger] in the Room

You know, I can easily get sucked into celebrity drama/news (and I really used to get into it when I was younger), but now I just don't care as much or I make a conscious effort not to. And if somebody does something personal like commit adultery, divorce their spouse, or whatever, then FINE. It doesn't affect me, nor does it affect their talents or why I liked them to begin with. It can be hard to separate our inane infatuation with celebrities and why we REALLY liked them to begin with, but I think it's silly when someone has to make a public apology for something that does not affect the public at all and should be dealt privately within their home. 

About 2 days after everyone found out that Tiger Woods had been cheating on his wife, I was so sick of hearing about it. WHO CARES?! What he did is nothing new. He didn't kill anyone. Leave him alone, and stop interrupting pressing worldly news with this useless garbage! And why are there always some people who have high moral expectations from others? ESPECIALLY celebrities (except if they're famous for not being moral lol). I mean, did Tiger Woods tell people that he was going to be moral? Did he become famous and wealthy for being a family guy with impeccable moral values? No! It was thanks to his golf abilities that everyone knew him. He is arguably the best golf player ever. Period. Whatever other expectations people had of him that he did not meet is their fault. Not his.

Despite all this drama he's going through (and me being sick of hearing about it lol), I still have lots of respect for what he's done for the sport of golf.

Just my little $0.02. lol
