Rozner wrong about Tiger Woods

Posted February 27, 2010 10:00 pm

Tiger Woods said "what I did was not acceptable" when what he should have said is "what I did was stupid." Columnist Barry Rozner said that for all of Tiger's apologies for marital infidelity he doesn't owe anything to anyone.

Mr. Rozner, you are wrong. Tiger may be able to hit a golf ball, but if it weren't for the people who stand in the sun to see him do it, if no one watched him on TV or bought the products he endorses, Tiger wouldn't be the wealthy man he is.

Tiger's mother said the media showed a "double standard" by keeping the sex scandal in the news for so long - after all he did not do anything illegal - implying the race card. Perhaps this is why Mr. Rozner is defending him, but then again in 2009 Mr. Rozner picked the Cubs to win the World Series.
