Fearless on the course, Tiger is a gutless fraud off of it. He shagged more women than the ballpicker at the range. Okay maybe not that many, but you get the point. Now he’s ready to come forward after being silent and practically invisible for two and-a-half months, with an explanation and an apology of sorts for his behavior. But once again, it’s all about him and controlling the message.
He’s called a news conference for Friday morning at PGA Tour Headquarters. To call it a news conference is not accurate. News conferences involve questions and answers with the news media. Tiger’s ”thing”, we’re told, involves a statement from him, in front of a select group of friends, colleagues and selected media, with a single pool camera. What exactly are “selected media” anyway?
If he’s truly sorry, and truly intent on winning back the forgiveness of his wife, family, friends and his legions of fans; he ought to be man enough to make himself vulnerable. He ought to answer the questions any true journalist–not selected patsies, would ask of an icon who let a lot of people down. Tiger doesn’t have the golf balls to do it. He’s taking the easy way out. That’s why he’s a chicken.
