Tiger Woods is an accomplished athlete that can do things to a golf course that no one else can do.
Tiger Woods is also an actor that has had an image created for him to market. The image that he puts out there for us to consume is just that-an image. Just because he can shape a golf shot doesn't make him any more of a moral icon than any body else. Shame on us for taking that image, putting it on a pedestal and worshiping the media-made god. Even more shame on us for being preoccupied with cutting down the god when a real-life shortcoming becomes public knowledge.
Absolutely. Shame on him for doing it, or shame on us for buying it? I say shame on us.
