Once Again, the Woods' Drama

Stevie Wonder could see it coming. I sit with popcorn and Pepsi and wait to see the show. The tabloids (hagrags really) said that Elin Woods was given 300 million to stay with Tiger. Since she as moved out, I doubt that she took the money. Another article (hagrag) said that she was holding out for 600 million.

Excuse me.. (clearing throat) what happened to the prenup? Surely this gold-digger has lost sight of Tiger not being nearly as a rich because of his infidelities. Most contracts have a morals clause; he obviously missed that paragraph. However missing a few lines that could cost the marraige doesn't equate into half of his fortune. I remember back in the day taking bleach and scissors to some clothes.

The last time I checked, the only golf clubs that were swung by Elin were towards a Lincoln Navigator (and Tiger). Mr. Woods has been the primary breadwinner. With the exception of a fleeting modeling career, we Americans had never heard of Elin. He brought her into our world. He put her into the spotlight.

We all agreed that it wasn't anyone's fault that he decided to married some strange Swiss chick. He's grown he could as he pleased. But Tiger, like OJ, forgot the people that helped indirectly or directly get to this place in his career. We Asian and Black women have felt an affront to the women that he chose. Why no Black women? No Asian? What's up with that? I suppose the brother likes what he likes. And I'm not even going to mention that a couple of them look like Steve Tyler (Dude looks like a lady!)

Okay,back on track. The outcome of this drama would turned out differently had Tiger come out with his own statement, rather than hiding behind his PR wingman, attorneys and everyone except God. Does Elin really deep down believe that she's going to get half this man's fortune without a fight? Consider that Tiger's marketability has dropped almost as quickly as AT&T stock. Endorsements are drying up. If I could, I would ask him two questions: 1. Did you think about the fall out and 2. Were they worth it? If they didn't mean anything to you, that's and even bigger insult. You ruined your family, tainted your image for nothing.

I'm not as concerned with Tiger and Elin as I am with their children. Those babies will have alot to deal with once they are old enough to understand transcontinental parenting. Granted, staying together for the sake of the children is never helpful, though at the time it might seem easier. Pray for the family. I'm staying tuned to see what happens now.
