Madlibs: 10 is the Magic Number
Isn't if funny how the people you expect least become the biggest perpetrators. Well I'm not sure if the Golf Digest editors were hoping to cash in on a bit of controversy (the image is photoshopped), but their January 2010 cover is a real point of conjecture. With Obama's approval rating dropping and 10 being "the golden ticket" these days....I bet there are 10 tricks...oops I meant tips Tiger would gladly like Obama to take , but then again....we've already been here done that with the Clinton administration.
I don't get in the habit of judging public figures, for they live in a universe that is completely devoid of the real world, but isn't it funny as side ho after side ho after side ho comes out of the woodwork, there has been absolutely no talks of the endorsement pull-outs (pun intended). Clearly there is a morals clause in these lucrative contracts as Tiger has, until now, maintained one of the most vanilla, cookie cutter, linen fresh, existences on the planet.
According to, Golf Digest, Tiger woods is projected to make over a billion dollars come 2010 making Woods the only athlete to earn over a billion dollars in his career (before taxes) and the second richest "African American" (of course Oprah is the first). That makes for a lot of hush money. But as more details arise, it will be very interesting to see how Nike, Accenture, AT&T, Tag Hauer, Gillette, and Gatorade try to cover their asses.
