Divorce for Woods looks pretty certain.

His body looked like, and still does, one that has gone beyond normal development, and now we learn of a close association with a doctor running afoul of the law in the area of illegal sports drugs. A coincidence? I don't think so. Hgh suits his ambitions and ego perfectly. How sad is it that we as a society place such a diminished emphasis on character when it comes to sports awards. Athlete of the decade he may well be, but he's a POS when it comes to character. In ancient Greece, it was body, mind, and spirit that mattered in assessing a man's worth. He has excelled in one only. As woods career progressed and his frame grew into maturity, I strongly suspected his use of HGH.

And why should anyone ask these questions? If he didn't want to be married to his wife any more, his option was to divorce her. He didn't do that, he just acted like the lowest piece of shit there is. “Just maybe, he might have been married to somebody that turned fridged, or used her sexuality as a weapon or commodity (nobody asks those questions).”

…to write the piece with Obama as the star of the flim flam show and Woods as the illustrative catalyst for comparison.
