Forums - Gaming - EA stands by Tiger Woods said no other golfer can replace him.

WilliamWatts on 15 December 2009

What I don't understand is why women are so keen to jump into bed with an obviously married man? Whilst I don't condone what Tiger Woods has done it seems to be that when it happens to them the women are all fire and brimstone but it seems many of the same women whom get up in arms about their men cheating are the same women who enable other men to cheat with them!

Should it not go both ways? If there was more emphasis placed on both men not cheating and women not enabling the cheating to go on and vice versa with men not allowing women to cheat with them, then wouldn't it create a situation where theres less hurt and mistrust?

I think its a poor decision by EA, but I understand they really have no other choice business-wise.

I find Tiger Woods to be despicable. It's one thing to have a drunken one night stand once (not saying it's right or okay), but to have multiple transgressions with multiple women is another thing. He obviously doesn't care too much for his wife or kids if he could do something this hurtful too them.

I just hope Elin takes all she can from him, if they divorce. Not that that would be enough.

First of all there are only two women that we actaully know about. The rest could be groopies seeking fame. Right now any woman can come out and state that she is Tiger Wood's Mistress because Tiger is not going to challenge the assertion. He'd look like a fool if he tried. Secondly, none of the alleged women have any proof. They have no pictures, text messages with his phone number, or anything. The only woman that had proof was the lady on tool Academy.

Every one makes mistakes. To drop an athelet for having an affair is extreme. CBS did not drop David Letterman for his affairs,South Carolina Govenor Mark Sanford has not resigned for his affair, and Nike did not drop Micheal Jordan for his affairs. Let's face the fact that People will cheat on their Partner and it's not a public matter but a private one.

Argue all you want, Tiger Wood's name recognition has lost considerable selling power. I'm sure EA's only sticking with him if they can renegotiate what they're paying him. This whole thing will never go away. It will follow him around for the rest of his career, and what people think of him, i mean look at Bill Clinton. He will still be the biggest name in golf, but there will always be an aura of negativity of anything he's selling to a fair amount of the market.

I don't think what he did was right, i despise that kind of thing; doesn't this guy have enough already? I guess it's never enough for tiger.

Tiger will resurrect is image because people forgive cheaters. Bill Clinton had an affair but is still extremely popular, Micheal Jordan had affairs and is still extremely popular, David Letterman had affairs and is still extremely popular, Charley Sheen had affairs and is still an extremely popular actor. This list could go on but I'll stop there. Besides, his relationship with his wife could have been bad or he may have a problem. I do not agree with what he did but I'm not going to crucify him for his actions.

At least he still has one endorsement he can always rely on:

Playboy.

The sports sponsorships will stay with Tiger so long as he is winning -- unless something else (cheating, PEDs, etc.) comes along.
The non-sports will probably drift away. They bought Tiger the star athlete and spotless image.

In other words, men's products stay, products where women are in on making the decision flee. This is not me doing anything more than looking at the differences in gender reactions to this situation.
