Tiger stiffs brother in failing health

[tm3308]

His eight years of garbage articles before that never tipped you off?

I was never a regular reader, but I did occasionally read his work, mostly because it was already in my hands. But I'll never read his work again after what he wrote last year. Additionally, I've learned a lot more about writing, critical thinking, etc. since I graduated high school, and can recognize his stuff for the garbage that it is.

That's a pretty conservative number.

The three are the children of Earl Sr. and Barbara Gary, of Kansas, and are 17-20 years older that Tiger, who is from Earl Sr.'s second marriage, to Kultida Punsawad.

What a name. Sounds like someone Duff made up for his 'life wit da neighbors' series.

Tiger should help the one half-brother who is really struggling.

Not good

Maybe, but we don't really know the context. As has been said, they haven't been anything resembling close in 20 years. That's hardly unusual.

And it's none of our damn business.

This is no different that IA and ISU helping UNI. According to most people on this board let them crash and burn. But I do agree with you. Blood is blood.

I'm firmly in this camp as well.

How do you think Reilly found out about this? The family told him, trying to make Tiger look bad.

Look, I think Tiger is a jerk. I also think rooting for individual athletes is pretty ridiculous. Root for a team, not a person. Favorite, golfers, tennis players, and God forbid, NASCAR drivers - I just don't get.

Is it cool if I root for Zach Johnson in the Masters?

How is rooting for one complete stranger any different than rooting for a team of complete strangers?

if tiger shoots a bad round in the masters he will do his usual thing of late and say I am hurt. but it is true if his relative is hurt and he can afford it why not help him?

His business is his business. I have family members I refuse to talk to as well. So this is just another example of the media trying to muck rake.

This.


If Elin can be above all this and not write tell-all books, do the talk show circuit,reality tv, so should everyone else.


Reilly wrote some good stuff for Sports Illustrated since he indirectly flip flopped with Dan Patrick the quality of his work(TV/writing) has gone down a little.

 

[latrans]

I see nothing news worthy here.

I would bet Elin is obliged via their settlement.

The Gary/Woods clan has already capitalized on Tiger's name enough.

It's not your place to judge. We don't know the whole story of their relationship, but we do know about the book that side of the family put out. My guess is that didn't endear them to Tiger at all, and it shouldn't have. This isn't newsworthy in the least. It's his business, not ours.

She got 300 mil when she could easily got 5 or 6. Imo, Tiger humiliated her, she could have been vindictive and evil about it, but quietly and with a lot of class she has simply moved on.

I have to agree with the sentiments of most the board members. I have a cousin who I haven't spoken to in years. She is a drug addict who has screwed over multiple family members over the years. Every family has issues. Unless you personally know about their family dynamics it isn't your place to judge.

Well, she couldn't completely let him off the hook.
