GM Will Repair, Auction Tiger Woods Wrecked Escalade
Posted: Dec. 09, 2009 11:12 a.m.

Are you in the market for a new Cadillac Escalade? How about a repaired one with a famous former owner? Jalopnik reports that General Motors plans to repair and sell Tiger Woods’ recently totaled Escalade. GM owns the vehicle, which was loaned to Woods as a public relations gesture.

The vehicle gained fame when Woods crashed the car at his Florida home.. Woods’ crashed the car into a fire hydrant, then into a nearby tree, sustaining minor injuries. Wood’s wife, Elin Nordegren, claims that she broke the rear window of the black Escalade with a golf club in order to free her husband from the crashed vehicle. Some speculate, however, that she may have broken the window and injured Woods in a rage prior to the crash.

A Cadillac spokesperson, David Caldwell, told USA Today, "We could retain ownership of it, using it for other internal duties, or we could indeed sell it off. Generally selling a company-owned vehicle means that it would go into an auction. So there are a few options." Caldwell also suggested that if the vehicle is auctioned off, it will be a formal auction rather than a private sale to a specific buyer or group.

I wish the media would back off now. He's a young man who sounds extremely naive. He should have postponed marriage until he'd lived more fully. He's made a mess of things for sure, but I hope he and his wife can come to some agreement for the sake of his sweet little children. They are the ones I feel sorry for. Where there is money Bimbos abound. It's hardly news worthy after the first 2 days.

Why are Americans so fucking puritanical? Why do they expect humans in the public eye to be so squeaky clean? And what exactly has Tiger's roaming dick got to do with his sports professionalism? He's no less amazing as a sportsman just because he fucks around, no?
It is interesting how in the US the Tag Heuer adverts with his picture have already been removed , but this advert with his picture appeared in the British Daily Telegraph only yesterday:

http://x17online.com/celebrities/tiger_woods/tag_heuer_drops_tiger_woods_too-121...
( a bit unfortunate to ask him at this point in time "What are you made of?", but it won't make me pull my watch off my wrist...)

As far as I'm concerned, I'm with Ginda! I bet it must be almost impossible to try and get to grips with your marital problems and infidelities when you're constantly in the public eye. The whole thing is in principle nothing but a private matter and only ceases to be one because of the media intrusion, fed by the seemingly insatiable public hunger for any minor details about celebrities's private lives. Nowadays it seems so normal and acceptable to stalk famous people, I absolutely hate it. Here in the UK things are hopefully going to get a bit more aggressive towards intrusive journalism and we expect newspapers to be sued after the Christmas period if they don't lay off in reporting about the Royal family during their Xmas holidays on the private Sandringham estate. And it's about fucking time!!!! I would welcome much tougher sanctions of journalists, perhaps then they will actually report proper news and not a lot of unimportant gossip shite about famous people, which doesn't interest me in the slightest. Specially those non-entities that are celebrities for being celebrities. If they'd discover some humanity-changing thing or were talented I would understand, but personally I'd welcome for Paris and the rest of celeb scum to fall into some tectonic faultline, never to be seen or heard of again... (Sorry, Joey!)

Ya know....I keep thinking. There is talk of Tiger being a "sex addict". I guess that's what they call it when you are a guy. If he was a girl...? I know what they'd call him. A slut. So....why don't we just call 'em as we see 'em? {Do we have a disgusted icon here?}

I don't know, but what I DO know is that there IS a word for women who profiteer from having sex.

Dropping your knickers for someone who happens to be famous and then running to the papers and making a financial killing out of it is basically a variation on the world's oldest profession - if anything, it's actually a seedier and less honest version of it.

The Tiger story isn't going anywhere anytime soon. As far as whether it's anyone's business and why do we care who Tiger slept with. Same reason we care about Ron Wood,David Letterman or anyone else. Human nature. But in Tiger's case. He tried to carefully craft a certain kind of public personality. While trying to portray himself as being squeaky clean and the all american boy. When the shit hit's the fan and the reality comes out, then he has no one to blame but himself. But don't feel to sorry for him. No matter what he has to pay Elin,he'll still be left with millions and make many more millions. All he has to do is show up on Oprah and cry on her couch.

Extremely well put. I guess people just feel deceived...and foolish for buying into the good guy/family man image he worked so hard to portray.

Why not leave the kid alone to sort out his life. Some of the tabloid vampires won't be satisfied with anything less than his suicide.

What other questions need be asked?

Yeah and he released it late on a friday afternoon like a politician forced to admit to bad news. But who wants to minimize the damage. He needs to answer a lot of questions. Like why he was a scumbag who cheated on his wife while she was pregnant and why he trys so hard to craft a certain public image. While living an entirely different life. I commend him for taking time off from golf. His family is more important. But why do I get the feeling this is more about damage control than about getting his family back together. I could give a fuck what Tiger does. He may be the greatest golfer who ever lived. But in my book he's still a lying,cheating,dirtbag. I'm sure he doesn't really care what me or anybody else thinks. But if he insists on this carefully crafted public image. Than at some point he has to answer to said public. The sponsors are dropping fast. Tiger is in full damage control. To repair is oh so precious public image,at some point he'll have to do the perp walk. Yes I know he hasn't been charged with any crimes. But like I said before,it's only a matter of time before he ends up crying on Oprah's couch. Or does an interview with 60 mins. With carefully inserted tears.

Our society is engulfed with all things celebrity. It's the first read on most news programs. He did not help himself in anyway, portraying himself as squeaky clean with advertisers claiming "It's In You" for Gatorade. Where there were four bimbos-there are fourty. Where there were nine-there are ninety.
Gloria Aldred represents five of them. This has an unending shelf life. Changing the channel will help.
