Tiger you are so SCREWED

[bigdarryl]

Your wife is going to make you pay for playing around with other bimbos by going after your money and keeping you away from your children. Was it worth it http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/03/elin-nordegren-wants-full_n_598995.html

[JuniperLea]

1. If you dance to the music...

donchano you got to pay to the piper...

[monmouth]

2. I doubt she'll be successful in keeping him from his children, shared

custody would be the norm. He'll pay, but how much will be negotiated...."Was it worth it"...Wow, how righteous of you...LOL..

[bigdarryl]

4. she wants 750 million

so that would leave Tiger with only 250 million DAMN!!!! what a punishment

[Solomon]

39. She's using the kids to get money. Obviously they can't break

the antenuptial agreement unless Tiger agrees to pay her more moeny for something.

I stopped doing divorces when I practiced because I was sick of parents using the kids to hurt each other.

That's what she's doing. If you don't pay me more than what the antenuptial agreement says then I won't let you see the kids.

I think he should pay what the agreement says, get a divorce and be done with it. let the chips fall where they may as far as the custody.

[joeybee12]

33. She wants to move back to Sweden...if she gets custody with him only

getting visitation rights, yeah, he won't be seeing them much.

[Kalyke]

3. Well, cheating on your spouse ups your chances of contracting

a ruinous, if not deadly, virus, so she could always argue that his judgment is poor and not conducive to raising children.

I did it. It works. I have full custody.

[Lance_Boyle]

5. Until that "she went after me with a golf club" thing comes up in court.

Courts tend to frown on domestic violence. Even when pretty women do it.

[cbdo2007]

7. Very true!

[Missy Vixen]

8. Woods stated she didn't hit him with the golf club

He also stated there was no violence in their home. It wouldn't be smart for him to then claim he was the victim of violence.

Truthfully, it's an uphill climb at this point for him to come away with even shared custody, based on what a previous poster wrote. He exhibited NO judgment whatsoever. He had unprotected sex with twenty different women (the media knows about) during the period of their marriage.

At the very least, their prenup is not worth the paper it's written on, and Elin Nordegren's going to get him where it hurts him most -- his wallet.

[cbdo2007]

11. "get him where it hurts him most -- his wallet" - which is the only way he would ever

come clean about domestic violence.

He's still hoping for a measley $50 Million payout or something but for $750 Million he'll let them publish pics of his messed up face on the front of the NY Times. It's all about money with Tiger and him keeping quiet about it before is understandable if he was trying to move on. Not when his money (oh yeah, and his kids) is on the line.

[Missy Vixen]

18. Do you honestly believe Elin Nordegren is a domestic abuser?

She hit his car with the golf club. She didn't hit him.

I'm wondering how many women in her position would greet the news that her husband was having unprotected sex with twenty women we know about calmly. Abuse is not appropriate in any circumstance, but I hope she bashed the crap out of that Escalade.

It was comical to me that his alleged opening offer after the accident was $80 million for her to stay. He endangered their entire family with his behavior. The money is a side issue.

[cbdo2007]

26. I think it's possible. Nobody saw the guy anywhere for 3 months

and there were reports of facial damage.

And I not sticking up for Tiger, just saying that *if* she did strike him with the golf club...she may have been better off taking the $80 Million to begin with.

[Missy Vixen]

31. He hit the wheel of the car when he struck the tree

Maybe she beat him up. Maybe he menaced her. We'll never know.

Nobody saw him for three months because he was in "rehab". For "sexual addiction". It's my opinion, but I don't believe it.

$80 million is a drop in the bucket of his fortune. How many years will it be until she knows she's not going to test positive for HIV, for instance?

[Hosnon]

28. Thank you for demonstrating the double standard.

I'm sure the thought of Elin cowering in a car as Tiger repeatedly hit it with a golf club in a fit of rage would elicit the same response from you...

[Missy Vixen]

30. Tiger was passed out on "painkillers"

He shouldn't have been behind the wheel of a car in the first place. Any other state would have cited him for DUI.

And, again: Do you think most spouses would be calm, cool and collected after being told their spouse was involved with twenty other people over a four-to-five year period?

[bullwinkle428]

22. Some reports indicate it was 121 women in total that he screwed around with!

[Hosnon]

25. Not in this country. When it comes to family law, men are screwed. nt.

[Scout]

34. got any proof of that, or are you just whining? n/t

[NeedleCast]

6. 0MG RICH PEOPLE CAUSING HEADLINE DRAMA!!

Well this rates about a 0.2 on my give-a-shit-o-meter.

[Scout]

21. you sooooo don't care that you had to post and tell everyone about it!

:rofl:

[HappyMe]

35. lol! Kind of a high reading, I think. nt

[FLyellowdog]

9. His father told him to focus on golf

and screw everything else. Not such good advice after all.

(Old joke, but still applies.) :hi:

[Johonny]

10. apparently getting screwed was his problem

people are havin the sex alert the media

[taught_me_patience]

12. I don't see how anybody could consider this remotely fair

Having affairs doesn't mean he is a bad father and shouldn't share custody of his kids. The $750MM is also competely laughable. First, Tiger is probably not even remotely worth close to a $1B. Even if he were, if there was no prenup, she should be entitled to 1/2 of assets accumulated AFTER the marriage. He already had a substantial fortune before the marriage that she has no right to. Of course, he also had a prenup... so she'll probably just get what was agreed to in the pre-nup.

[JuniperLea]

13. Good luck with that meme...

Perspective is everything. I don't see how you can truly believe what you've written here. Seriously. Cheating is wrong, period. If you dance to the music, you pay to the piper.

[Solomon]

40. You haven't been to real divorce court much. Cheating might be

wrong, but it doesn't have the effect that you say it does. Now a days, they will include the other person in with the therapy with the children and the spouse. You need to go to court today to see what happens in a divorce. Almost all of them have to do with cheating. The court doesn't bring a hammer down on the head of the cheater like you imagine that it does.

[JuniperLea]

42. It's different state to state...

I'm divorced in California... what you say means nothing in CA... the judge makes the couple do the dirty work here. I never, ever said a judge would do that. I'm stating what's ethically and morally correct, imho.

[taught_me_patience]

44. I'm not denying there is an impact on the custody battle

but cheating should not mean he has no custody of the kids at all. The kids need a father too, as flawed as he may be.

[JuniperLea]

49. If he's the rabid sex addict he seems to be...

The kids are much better off without him... he's sick and twisted without question in that regard, there's no telling what else is going on...

[ctaylors6]

15. I think behavior like his does negatively impact the kids

The extent of the affairs (number and skankiness) and them being played out in public for his kids to read about the rest of their lives IS damaging to the kids. It's not like he couldn't have anticipated the publicity of them either.

Also, if he didn't practice safe sex during the affairs and was having sex with his wife, he was putting her and the kids in danger.

While I don't think all affairs should always be considered for custody purposes, I think the recklessness of his behavior is fair game for custody purposes.

[JuniperLea]

43. Spot on... eom

[dgibby]

16. The fact that he exposed himself and their mother to every

sexually transmitted disease known to mankind (some of which are lethal) could be grounds to charge him with attempted murder and/or assault with intent to do bodily harm. It shows an appalling lack of judgment and callous disregard for the health and well-being of himself and his family, which calls into question his parenting skills.

If I were the judge in this case, he'd be lucky to get supervised visitation.

[taught_me_patience]

36. Seems a bit extreme. By your logic, every cheater should be charged

with attempted murder? Half the adult population would be in jail.

[Solomon]

41. And that my friend, is why you are not, nor never will be, a

judge. Ridiculous.

[WolverineDG]

20. Fault in the break-up of the marriage = unequal division of assets & debts nt

[taught_me_patience]

37. Actually, most states do not attempt to determine fault

when dividing assets. California does not. I don't know where they were married.

[WolverineDG]

51. They do if there is it is plead

Most of the time, people chose to go the "no fault" route which is way easier on everyone involved, but if one of the parties pleads & proves there was fault in the marriage breaking up, they can get an unequal division of assets.

[blondeatlast]

23. Having affairs does mean you are a bad parent. The kids get hurt in a way

that could easily be prevented.

Thus, bad parenting. And pre-nups get busted all the time--but you enjoy Fantasyland (and keep absolving cheaters of their responsibilities to their children). If you get good at it, perhaps law school is on order.

[Missy Vixen]

24. Was it fair to his wife that he had no intention of keeping his vows?

Was it fair that she agreed to the same vows he did -- including "forsaking all others" -- but he felt they were just suggestions?

She's getting a LOT more than the "agreement" in the prenup. She'll probably get custody of the kids, too.

>Having affairs doesn't mean he is a bad father and shouldn't share custody of his kids.<

No, it just shows he's irresponsible enough to have sex with multiple women without taking precautions against disease. He wasn't showing any regard for the safety of his wife and kids. I'm also of the opinion that the "rehab" he submitted to was for another issue entirely; it's a matter of time before that comes out, too.

[Hempathy]

14. Oops...I thought it said "Tigers"...

And I just figured that it was yet another thread about that umpire missing the call.

[TexasObserver]

17. No way US courts will let her move those kids to Sweden.

The story's premise is weak. She'll get whatever she's entitled to get under the law, and she'll get support payments that are huge. But we favor having both parents in the children's lives, and that is paramount. If there's a hint she's threatening to move the kids to Sweden, she'll lose primary custody. Those kids are Americans, their daddy is an American, and they have a right to be raised in America.

All she will accomplish with this tactic is losing the high moral ground.

[inna]

27. I agree with you completely.

This starting to sound almost like extortion, and she is losing the high moral ground, IMO.

[Major Hogwash]

46. I hope they do. I've applied to be her pool boy.

And I've always wanted to go to Sweden ever since Elvis sang that song, "I love Sweden ya ya ya."

LoL

[malaise]

19. She knew who she married

Hope she read the pre-nup.

[Tutankhamun]

32. I don't think she did know. That's the problem.

[spanone]

29. i bet it was, and he can afford it.

[opihimoimoi]

38. Tiger shoulda never have gotten married period. Tigers case is only one example....never ever get

married period....

That way...he can have his fuckaholic urges and spluges too

[Missy Vixen]

45. He got married because of his image

He made his fortune because of his squeaky-clean "family man" image.

He lied to everyone in his life (and multiple corporate sponsors) about who he was.

Elin Nordegren was a nanny when he met her. She wasn't looking to be famous. From all external appearances, she was a supportive and loving wife.

Tiger Woods' problems had nothing to do with marriage. It had everything to do with the fact he's a narcissistic, spoiled, immature man whose sense of entitlement needed a big reality check.

[opihimoimoi]

48. yup...thank you...I concur....he shoulda woulda coulda but ....never mind LOL

[Captain Hilts]

52. BINGO!!!! We have a winnah!!!! nt

[mitchum]

47. He got caught because he is cheap (and stupid)

High dollar professionals are discrete
unlike bimbos and cokewhores

[branders seine]

50. I believe 'SCREWN' is the preferred parlance.

[inna]

53. I have to say, Elin lost me completely here.

I mean, it's absolutely clear what she is doing here (trying to get as much $$ out of him as possible), but she lost all the high moral ground that she had before.

Come on, this is an attempt at extortion, of sorts. I actually feel bad for Tiger and empathize with him for the first time.
