I can't speak for others, but it doesn't appear to me that many others agree with his actions, I believe most are saying they can see how something like this may occur.
You are making this guy sound like he shot someone. Ok, he cheated on his wife, again not saying it is ok, you make it appear as if you are novice in terms of knowledge about pro athletes behavior.
This is a story between him and his wife. Frankly, if I were her, I would be filing for divorce today. As for the kids thing, yes, he has a responsibility, but so do the millions that have kids and can barely afford to take care of them, so are they douche bags and a holes for not having a better career or achieved more from an education standpoint, that would allow them to support their families better?
My post probably sounded harsher than I meant it to. Mostly, I was just giving a smartass response to everyone who said they don't blame him, good for him, life is boring, etc. I wonder how many people would be saying that if she had cheated on Tiger with a bunch of dudes. She would probably be a bitch, or a whore, but somehow because Tiger did it he seems to get a pat on the back. Ok, I'm not saying everyone responded like that, but there are definitely people who act like he did nothing wrong.
You're right, he didn't shoot anybody. He cheated on his wife, and got caught. Personally, I could care less about Tiger Woods. I have no interest in golf, so I don't follow him at all. I just feel bad for his wife and kids. Well, especially the kids. They don't need all this drama in their lives.
I know pro athletes cheat all the time. I also know that some spouses even "look the other way" when they marry an athlete because that's their "arrangement." I completely agree that this is between him and his family. I don't think he owes an apology, public statement, etc. I was simply commenting on what happened because it became public knowledge.
As for your question, if someone has a kid KNOWING they won't be able to support them, then yes, I think that's wrong. I say 'not be able to support' as opposed to scraping by and making ends meet. Plenty of people scrape by, there's nothing wrong with that. Personally, I wouldn't buy a dog if I couldn't support it, let alone bring a kid into the world.
