Tiger Woods Story

Don't you find it a bit strange that the first reporting about this was a statement issued by the Florida Highway Patrol approximately 12 hours after the incident? Is it reasonable to accept the premise that you back out of your driveway and run into a fire hydrant, then run into a tree in your neghbor's yard at 2:30 in the morning and that 'The accident did not appear to have been alcohol-related,' the Florida Highway Patrol statement said. The inclusion of the alcohol statement leads many of us to wonder why there is any mention of it at all, especially if 'charges are pending' as reported by CNN. Such a statement only serves to confuse and/or obfuscate, rather than lend clarity to the situation. Since the FHP reportedly stated that he was transported to the hospital in 'serious condition,' why can't his publicist and the hospital seem to get ahead of such reporting with 12 hours lead time, and then reportedly state that the accident was "minor" and Woods was "admitted, treated and released today in good condition?" I know that the media can't be relied upon to get the facts straight, but this incongruence seems just a bit too much to figure out what really happened.

There was a report that Tiger's wife used a golf club to break the back window of his SUV--apparently after the accident Also that when the police arrived Tiger was lying on the street with cuts on his face and blood in his mouth and going in and out of consciousness. This was from an ESPN scroll.

I think it is enough to know Tiger is ok. In Florida there is no requirement for him to tell the police what happened. How's that for privacy. And why do we need to know what really happened? Are we just nosey..or do we hope he has a secret drug or alchohol problem, or maybe his marriage sucks too.
