Tiger Woods had the shit beaten out of him
I thought maybe some serious embarassment, some PR moves, etc. had kept Tiger Woods from appearing to police, the public, the PGA, etc. But I am beginning to believe that Elin did some extensive damange to his face. I saw this interesting article and franklty I believe it.

Read this from the Huffington Post. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/12/29/tiger-woods-plastic-surge_n_406280.html

Question? Why wouldn't Elin be arrested for domestic abuse or battery?

3. With a 9 iron
That's why he can't play golf, his custom clubs were used as weapons.

8. On the other hand, Steve McNair proves female violence can, in fact, happen...
I hear that his wife didn't want Tiger's mom living close by unless a river separated them. I wonder where her mom was crashing?

9. Maybe... you'd be happier at TMZ
Where you can play with gossipy rubbish having no basis in fact to your heart's content.

11. Gee have you read any Rush Limbaugh posts on DU this morning?
Most have been gossipy rubish also. Still see you here on DU though.

16. No, I don't give a rat's ass about Limpballs
Adding to already present other gossipy rubbish is your excuse? Is there some reason you have an overwhelming hatred of Elin that equates with that of Limpballs here that inspires you to post gossipy rubbish having no basis in fact? Is there some reason you think that my being on DU at all equates with my presumably believing that every post here on every subject is acceptable or even worthy of notice?

So, what it is about Elin that inspires such overwhelming hatred within you that it inspired you to post some gossipy rubbish that has no basis in fact? Surely you must find her to be as evil and nasty as Limpballs and can provide the same evidence of her evil nastiness that can be provided against Limpballs to justify your belief that she is deserving of the same gossipy rubbish posts that apparently Limpballs has recently inspired here. Surely you wouldn't have compared the two otherwise.

22. Yes I hate Elin
I admit it. You've got me 100%. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. She's the bastion of all evil. Maybe the anti-Christette.

Sheesh get over yourself. I posted an article. Read it. Like it, don't like it. Move on. You must have way too much time on your hands. Have a cocktail. It's New Year's Eve.

24. except you speculate and condemn the wife did something and fact states otherwise.

26. I've read the information out there
No one knows what happened. My point is if she did assault him, which most people believe she did, why didn't she get arrested? Answer...teh same reason Rush Limbaugh didn't get in trouble for buying lots of illegal drugs. When you're rich you can get away with things you cannot get away with when you are not rich.

If my wife came after me with a golf club and I wrecked into a fire hydrant and tree...do you think I could just say no to visiting with police? No way.

27. what do you mean most people believe she assaulted him? i dont know one way or another
Edited on Thu Dec-31-09 10:25 PM by seabeyond
from what i have heard from police and witness, it appears (believe or not cause i dont know) that she did not assault him with a golf club. they say fat lip which would go with an accident NOT with a golf club.

and who are these MOST people BELIEVE she assaulted him, without any information or facts for them to believe.

i dont know what the story is.

but what i do know

you dont know what the story is either.

28. Believe what you like
You will anyway. Obviously, since you're so intent on believing that Elin beat Tiger before he crashed his car when there is NO evidence of anything of the kind occurring you have some bizzare personal reason for that belief. Just don't expect anyone who isn't in on your bizzare personal belief to go along or not notice that you've got some bizzare personal reason for believing she beat him when there isn't a single modicrum of evidence to suggest such a thing.

No, I won't have a cocktail as I don't drink. Perhaps you should switch to coffee since it's evident that something has effected your mind and booze has a way of doing just that.

29. Hah
I don't drink coffee or alcohol.

Call me bizarre but my opinion is my opinion. Something obviously happened. People don't run into fire hydrants in the middle of the night are found unconcious in the middle of the street afterward. You don't find that just a tad odd? Maybe not.

25. Oh, really?
I've been writing a blog for the past three years. My blog has been linked to by mass media on hundreds of occasions now. I primarily write about politics. EVERYTHING I print is sourced. I do not print rumors.

Do yourself a favor, and stop talking about things you don't know about.

7. If this were true.... I should think that would also
impact any attempts by Elin to reverse the prenup if she chose to divorce him.... A lot about this doesn't ring true... There are accounts that he only showed signs of a "fat lip" when he did meet with police... Even with the best plastic surgery, he's going to show signs of that much trauma for many days thereafter. Plus, who the heck engages in marital counseling for six hours a day? Sounds a bit preposterous....:shrug:

12. It also seems preposterous to
retire from the only thing he knows...Golf...as the best player in the world after receiving a fat lip.

The whole thing is one of the most bizarre sports stories of my time at least.

10. She would have had to hit him while he was asleep or drugged
5' 4" former bikini model beats up world champion golfer with a 9 iron? I don't think so.

And you have to go to Phoenix because there aren't competent plastic surgeons and reconstructive dentists in Florida? Unlikely.

13. I read somewhere that the kitchen cupboards or appliances were busted up too
and there is proof-photographs-that repair work was being done shortly after the incident/accident.

I tend to believe this story because Elin was seen to have a club in her hand after Tiger had the accident.

17. cnn report. sounds like huffington report bullshit.
But the December 1 meeting gave troopers a chance to see what Woods looked like five days after the accident. By then, unsubstantiated rumors were flying about whether Woods had been struck by a golf club by his wife. She had told police she used a club to rescue him from the locked SUV after it crashed.

Montes insists the meeting had no ulterior motive. "We did not go over to evaluate him," she told CNN.

"He had a bump on his lip or a fat lip consistent with someone who had not been restrained in a vehicle that was in a traffic accident," she said. "It was not consistent with someone who's been a victim of domestic violence."

*

Disclosure of the December 1 traffic ticket handoff came after unsubstantiated Internet reports that in the original incident, Woods had been hit in the face with a golf club, suffering a gash, knocking out his teeth and sending him to a plastic surgeon in Arizona for plastic surgery shortly after the accident

The Florida Highway Patrol's meeting would appear to make the timing of that trip impossible. Woods' agent has not responded to CNN's questions about those reports.

19. Huffpo has become a glorified gossip sheet, but still w/lots of

political/current events. All to attract the most clicks. Soon, it will be by paid subscription only. THAT is why they run so much
trivia, celebrity stuff etc. Prepping and waitin' for when the largest possible audience will be willing to pay to visit there.

18. In six months or less, he'll have plenty of NEW sponsors & get

richer than ever. The golfing public, like most rich people, are only concerned with wealth/status - HOW one gets there is of no import to them - with few exceptions such as Madoff, but even with him, it's mainly rich Jewish people who are concerned with
HOW Madoff made $.

21. The neighbors who came out and
saw him on the ground 'snoring' said he only had bleeding about the lips. I think that a real injury such as described in the letter would have been apparent.

Maybe somebody talked to them from Tiger's or Elin's side, but that's been reported in a lot of places. The police interviewed them.

30. she hasn't been arrested b/c there's probably no real evidence of domestic abuse or battery
Because all the "evidence" that she attacked him with a golf club has been gossipy speculation :shrug:

Edited on Thu Dec-31-09 11:06 PM by LisaL
Police saw him days after the accident and all he had was a fat lip, which he could have presumably sustained in a car crush.

32. His attorney said this story was complete BS.
If anything, I think Woods had a tantrum smashing up his own vehicle?
