Tiger Tees it Up in Dubai with Serviceman
By Evan Hilbert - AOL NewsLt. Col. Michael Rowells, a nine handicap, found himself shanking balls from the rough and dropping shots into the water Wednesday in Dubai. The serviceman was nervous and rattled by his surroundings. The reason? His playing partner was Tiger Woods. Rowells beat 16,000 other golfers in a draw and was given the opportunity to play with Woods. Stationed in Afghanistan, Rowells had to scramble in order to get a passport and borrowed a set of golf clubs from Emirates Golf Club. "I came in wanting to play decent and I really didn't," Rowells said. "But it didn't matter. The experience was so ...
Rachel Uchitel, Elena Kagan, and Our Double Standard about Sex as Savvy Career Move
By Sarah Wildman - Politics DailyHas it always been this way? For some reason, the career advancement of a serious, intellectual woman -- Elena Kagan, just for instance -- can be jeopardized over mere rumors about a very private life she prefers for whatever reason to keep private. Yet for gals like Michelle McGee or Rachel Uchitel, dicey sexual behavior is a sure-fire career enhancer. Yes, broadcast a sex tape or publish naughty stripper photos and you're on your way; thus are gals who've done nothing more than be blessed with tight abdominals and a proclivity for shaking what God (or a surgeon) gave 'em celebrated with ...
Rielle, Oprah and Zen: America's Truth-Off
By Lizzie Skurnick - Politics DailySince the publication of "Game Change," the revelations of a sex tape and the alarming photo accompaniment to Rielle Hunter's GQ interview, we can safely say that dirt on the John Edwards scandal has entered an era of diminishing returns. America could handle the soap-worthy battle between a cancer-ridden wife and a wanton home-wrecker, but even the most salacious viewer knows that when the lady of the house takes off her pants and kneels next to the stuffed Elmo, it's time to pick up your toys and go home. ...
Tiger Woods, Big Ben and Muhammad Ali: A Tale of Three Athletes
By Mary C. Curtis - Politics DailyWhen Tiger Woods plays in the Quail Hollow Championship in Charlotte, N.C., this week, he will be shadowed by not only Phil Mickelson and Vijay Singh, but also Joslyn James, or as she is billed, "Tiger's mistress No. 15," performing at a "gentlemen's club" twice nightly, plus a lunch show. Meanwhile Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is contemplating his NFL suspension after questionable behind-closed-doors behavior at a Georgia college bar. Most athletes want to be known for more than just their sports. But becoming the object of ridicule and the subject of crude jokes is not ...
Tiger Woods' Sex Scandal: The Video Game
By David Moye - AOL News(April 23) -- Tiger Woods' sex scandal may have tarnished his image, but it has made a new video game based on his off-the-course life a lot more exciting. Woods is now the star of "Tiger Woods Affair Tour 2010," a raunchy, sexually explicit video game that its creators describe as a mix of "Grand Theft Auto" and "South Park." Courtesy D-Dub Software D-Dub Software has just released "Tiger Woods Affair Tour 2010," an unauthorized and sexually explicit video game that lets players walk in Woods' golf shoes as he has sex with as many women as possible. Characterized as interactive parody, ...
Tiger Woods Divorce Rumors Pick Up Steam After Masters
By not in system - AOL News(April 14) -- It's easy to see Tiger Woods' 11-under, fourth-place finish at the Masters and assume that, despite everything that happened to him between Thanksgiving and Easter, he is "back." ...
Video of Phil and Amy Mickelson's Masters Kiss Pushes Tiger Aside
By Donna Trussell - Politics DailyTiger Woods is a fine golfer with some personal problems, and that's all I have to say about Mr. Woods. Except for the schadenfraude enthusiasts, who no doubt relished Tiger's 4th-place finish at the 2010 Masters Tournament in Augusta, Ga., on Sunday all eyes were turned to winner Phil Mickelson and his wife Amy. For 11 months Amy Mickelson has battled breast cancer. She had not been on any golf course since her diagnosis last May, and she was in bed most of the week in Augusta leading up to the tournament. ...
Get Tiger Woods a Decent Political Consultant
By David Corn - Politics DailyJust a few days ago, I wrote a column noting that our national discourse tends to eschew serious stuff (nuclear weapons policy) and chows down on the irrelevant (Tiger Woods). So excuse me for not practicing what I preach by wondering aloud: Who advised Tiger Woods to use his dead father's voice in his just-released ad for Nike? After all, any political consultant would have told him this was a duffer's move. In the spot -- if you haven't yet seen it -- a dour-looking Woods stares straight into the camera. He says nothing. His expression doesn't change. And the viewer hears his father: "I am ...
Tiger's Baaack! And Boys Will Be Boys
By Luisita Lopez Torregrosa - Politics DailyAh, what was all that fuss about Tiger Woods? Let's face it, the guy served five months in hell for his sins and now it's time to forgive and forget and play golf. Let the tournament begin! Here's how it went for Tiger Thursday, on his return to the game after months in exile. Teeing off in early afternoon at the opening round of the Masters at the pristine Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, he received an ovation from the crowd. Shouts and applause from the fans and absolute reverence from the media followed him through the afternoon. Oh, he played well, maybe not up to the level of ...
The Audacity of Being Tiger
By Kevin Blackistone - AOL NewsWhen Hootie Johnson retired his role as chief chauvinist at revered (or reviled, depending on your race or gender) Augusta National Golf Club, home of the Masters, the woman who waged war for women to be accepted at Augusta as something more than maids, cooks and paramours, reached out with hope to incoming club chairman Billy Payne. "We asked for a meeting with Payne and they [Payne and club officials] never answered us, at all," the former National Council of Women's Organizations chair Martha Burk recalled to me by phone from her New Mexico home the other day. Johnson bequeathed his office ...
