Tiger

So today around 11am central, Tiger will finally come forth with his first public word since he went into Sex Rehab. First, I don't think there is ever an excuse to cheat on your spouse, let alone have the train of women that he chose. I make jokes about how if a man isn't pleased he should get something on the side ("The entree ain't good without something on the side") but those are all humorous. In my opinion, it should be a lot harder for people to get married. Marriage classes should be mandatory & for consequences of breeches of your vows you should be held legally accountable. <---Maybe not that last part, but you should be expected to uphold your vows. "For better, or for worse. For richer or for poorer. Til Death do us part."

[Pause| The marriage episode on Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is hella weird. |Unpause]

I just feel like people take marriage as a joke these days so most people who aren't ready for marriage, force it. Some of the best advice that I have ever been given was when an old man told me, "Make sure you marry someone who takes marriage seriously because then you'll learn that it's not the love that keeps your marriage strong but it's your marriage that keeps your love strong. A person that deeply loves God will have too much respect for the Holy Covenant to steer you wrong." I sat back & thought, that makes way too much sense.

My opinion, Tiger was one of those guys who didn't take his marriage serious enough. His wife might not have either, but who knows really? There is no reason for people to say, "Tiger should be stripped of all of his titles." Even though character is important in life, he's getting paid for playing a sport. He didn't break a law so he really owes us nothing. The only people that deserve any sort of apology are, his wife, his kids, his family & his endorsers. I might add his fans on there too (which obviously includes everyone) but that's just a gentlemanly thing to do. #TigerShouldSay "You said you were in it for better or for worse. BISH IT'S WORSE RIGHT NOW!"
