<!-- ARTICLE CONTENT START --> Tiger Woods has more girl trouble.
A Los Angeles cocktail waitress is claiming she and the world's top golfer carried on a torrid 31-month affair - and that she has the text messages and voice mails to prove it.
Jaimee Blue Sky Grubbs, 24, who says she was 21 when she first hooked up with Woods in April 2007, is expect to dish the details in an upcoming US Weekly report, TMZ.com reported Tuesday.
Whatever Grubbs has to say is likely to be bad news for Woods, whose good guy image has already taken a hit by a National Enquirer report that he was cheating on his Swedish supermodel wife with a New York party girl.
Meanwhile, a lawyer for Woods' neighbors insisted Tuesday that the golfer's wife, Elin Nordegren, tried to help her husband after the wreck.
"She was trying to help him, she was not trying to do any furthur damage," the attorney, Bill Sharpe, said.
Sharpe, who represents Linda Adams are her family, said that if the couple was fighting before the crash, nobody in the Adams household saw it.
"My clients feel like somebody believes they saw something they are not telling anybody," said Sharpe.
"They did not witness any domestic violence ... Mr. Woods' minor injuries are not consistent with somebody being beaten with a nine iron." Woods' neighbors got swept up in the Tiger Tempest after it was revealed that the 911 call for help that alerted cops about the accident came from their home.
It is believed that Linda Adams' son, Jarius, placed the call.
Sharpe said the Adams family does not want to say anything more about the Friday accident. So far, Woods has been stonewalling investigators about what exactly happened and he has yet to directly address reports that he'd been cheating on his wife with 34-year-old Rachel Uchitel.
Uchitel, however, has vehemently denied having an affair with Woods and has lawyered-up Gloria Allred, an attorney who specializes in representing scorned celebrity women.
The Florida Highway Patrol is still investigating the smashup and expected to give an update later today. In a statement three days after the crash, Woods 'fessed up to the "obviously embarrassing" incident adding, "The only person responsible for the accident is me."
"My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble," he wrote on his Web site. "She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false."

Tiger is a whore in more ways than one. He pimps himself out to every company out there. I guess Tiger picked the wrong guy to get advice from when he chose Jordan. Shows what dumbshit suckers Americans really are.

Could Tiger Woods be looking at a $100 million fender-bender?

The squeaky clean image of golf's greatest player and the sports world's most lucrative endorser took a hit over Thanksgiving weekend — no pun intended. Mr. Woods was involved in a single-car accident, but the timing, the circumstances, the aftermath and the ever-churning rumor mill quite possibly have endangered his own brand and his estimated nine-figure annual endorsement deals with several blue-chip companies.

"I think this incident ultimately will have a negative effect on the Tiger Woods brand," said sports marketing expert Robert Tuchman, exec VP of New York-based sports and entertainment marketing company Premiere Global Sports. "Regardless of the facts, there are brand marketers who might pass at looking at him now. I think as this situation unfolds and how he handles himself will determine the long-term effects to his image. The best thing he can do is be completely honest and open about the situation and what took place."

Mr. Woods' desire for privacy will likely fall on deaf ears. (He has yet to speak publicly about the incident.) As of Sunday evening, there were 7,492 articles on Google News regarding the accident, not to mention numerous blog posts and rumor-mongering.

One of the biggest issues has been his refusal to meet with police who are investigating the accident, although by Florida law he does not have to subject himself to an interview. "When I put on my criminal defense hat, I'm on Tiger's side when it comes to that. He does not have to talk to the police," said New York attorney Jonna Spilbor, who regularly appears on Fox, MSNBC and CNN as a legal analyst. "People are making it appear that he needs to participate in this investigation when in fact he does not. From the criminal aspect, he's doing exactly what he's entitled to do — nothing."

But from a public relations aspect, Ms. Spilbor said, "He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. He can't win for losing on this. The public has already put the pieces of the puzzle together in its own mind — the wife scratched his face, she bashed in the window [before the accident] and no matter what he says, that's what the public is going to believe."

Mr. Woods has endorsement deals with Nike, Gillette, Accenture, AT&T and American Express, among others, that total $100 million annually, according to Forbes. As of Sunday evening, only Nike had put out a statement, saying Mr. Woods had the company's "full support."

"Among the things Tiger Woods sells is trust. And although it may be his prerogative to forgo interviews and discussion about the events of the last few days, it certainly sends a message that is inconsistent with his overall positioning in the marketplace, one also built on performing under pressure," said David Carter, principal with the Los Angeles-based Sports Business Group and executive director of the Sports Business Institute at the University of Southern California. "Despite this, it will take far more than a single incident -- one in which each of us may not know for sure how we ourselves would respond -- prior to inflicting lasting harm on his brand."

"Corporate sponsors should hold their position and support him until, or if, other information becomes available to consider other decisions," John Rowady, president of Chicago-based sports marketing agency rEvolution, said. "The risks and responsibility of being an iconic athlete are incredible in the new, global, social-media age. Tiger Woods is still the poster child for handling it all with integrity until he tells us otherwise."




In a poll on the sports website Yardbarker, more than 4,000 people responded to the question asking "If you ran a company, would you want Tiger to endorse your product now?" Some 66% (2,687 votes) voted yes while 34% (1,390 votes) said no as of late Sunday evening.

"The timing and the seemingly never-ending news cycle has not helped Tiger, but unless there is something much more sordid than what has come out it will not hurt his marketability," said Robert Boland, professor of sports marketing at New York University. "It's doubtful any of his current endorsement deals would be threatened as of now."

Joe Favorito, New York-based sports marketing and branding consultant, said unless something bigger emerges, "The guy remains the meal ticket for thousands of people who rely on golf for their livelihood. There is no way that changes unless there is something really egregious that we don't know about yet."

Still, Mr. Favorito added, "Is the whole thing a little bizarre? Yes."

Hopefully this is the end of it.

Police: Woods at fault in crash, will get citation Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Tiger Woods will be cited for careless driving in a car crash outside his Orlando-area mansion, but will not face criminal charges, the Florida Highway Patrol said Tuesday.

Woods faces a $164 fine and four points against his driver's license, not close to enough to have it suspended. The citation closes the investigation of last week's crash.

The patrol "is not pursuing criminal charges in this matter nor is there any testimony or other evidence to support any additional charges of any kind other than the charge of careless driving," Sgt. Kim Montes said.


As far as the endorsements, hell, the guy is already worth over a billion dollars. My guess is that he'll be just fine.

Sounds like the moans of someone who isn't successful in life, has no wife, no g/f, watches young men, and is basically a total loser in life.

Stick to what you know, 12 year old boys running around a diamond.

Who cares and why? Seriously?

[WorldNumberOne]

Interesting Rail..........



Be thankful you live in CA. and don't have this nutcase and his wife living within 80 miles of you like I do................I will feel much safer once he is behind bars, which is going to happen sooner or later and the sooner the better for everyone's sake.

come on fish... the newbee's are going to think you really are this stupid..

 

[texansfan]

Please, nobody is going to jail in this case. It's over with.

 

[jwblue]

Who cares and why? Seriously?

When someone makes millions and millions and millions of dollars endorsing products, image matters.

All of this is part of his image. In an indirect way, the public has a right to know.

amen

A right to know, but no obligation to care.
