The Latest Contestant in the 'Tiger Woods Owes Me Something' Is ...

In an article on ESPN.com, Woj, under the auspices of chiding Woods for hiring former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, goes to the same tired 'because you spectacularly failed in your personal life and you are not as popular as you once were, I can demand things from you I wouldn't have dared before Thanksgiving 2009' meme.
After listing a number of questions he would ask Woods (to his credit the first few pertain to the level of his relationship with Anthony Galea, a Canadian sports medicine specialist who is under investigation by federal authorities for possibly supplying athletes with performance-enhancing drugs), he drops my (sarcasm on) favorite line in the article (sarcasm off):
Woods owes us at least this much. More importantly, he owes us sincere, non-spin-control answers that come from the heart, not from the legal pad of Fleischer. He owes us something as basic as the truth.
Why does Woods owe anyone who isn't his family anything? He negotiates twelve foot putts, not health care legislation.
More importantly, who is the 'us' Woj speaks of? The general public? The media in general? ESPN.com correspondents? It appears Woj is using some of the spin-control he calls for Woods to abandon.

The media is trying
to get back at him for all of the years he shut them out.

It's a bit sickening of everyone who wanted a piece of Tiger when he was on top of the game
and how much they all want from him now that he’s fallen from grace. Gimme a break. The dude plays golf. Did he make a mistake? Absolutely, he addressed it in the fashion that he wanted to, and it makes zero difference if you (the writer/media) like it or not. I know many find this hard to believe, but there are actually other stories out there outside of Tiger, go find one Gene.
(Sorry my first post on WR had to be a Nov. Tiger related one)
Media Hacks
Golf Writers; Self Centered, Self Loathing, Country Club Tee Times Chasers. Tiger won’t have dinner with them.. boo hoo!! Golf Writers approaching Baseball Writer Status…have you see half these guys.. they’re old, bald and shriveled up. Most still living in the Good Ole Boy days.
Tiger owes me nothing…well.. actually.. I’d take Rachel Uchitels numbers anytime dude..the rest you can throw out!
