Sharon, you are completely wrong. Yesterday on Entertainment Tonight (2/19/2010) during one of the segments I raised the question of what Tiger looked like at the time he gave his statement. I said, “Tiger looked contrite, a bit heavier than we saw during his last public appearance and as to those rumors that he might have had plastic surgery – and THAT’S why he was in hiding for so long – there was absolutely no evidence of that.”

Please, don’t accuse me of statements I didn’t make. Shame on you for twisting my words.

After seeing a sound byte this afternoon where you ask “has Tiger Woods had plastic surgery”? I ask myself, “is she nuts”? Why does the media spin stories so out of control they even they cannot distinguish what is moral anymore? The FHP stated Woods met them at an undisclosed location 3 days after his accident, paid his ticket and they saw no evidence of domestic violence on his face. He made that statement again today all over the world. Yet, you would choose a tasty tidbit like that to keep the story going and not let this family move forward. Shame on you! We watched Tiger, we wish he and Elin well and hope they can overcome the intense media scrutiny once again that you all seem to love. God help you if you ever screw up.

Tiger …you are a winner and history will see you as not only a winner , but an exceptional one. You did your best to keep a clean image and if you stumbled with some of the temptations of youth that fame and fortune brought before you, well life is for those who pick themselves up, dust off and fly again. I have a feeling you will do just that. Remember there are those appointed in life to kick others when they are down, the accusers who deep down resent your greatness and harbor envy. They are beneath contempt . Take your time, young man, reflect in your own space and quiet that your wealth is able to afford you. When you are ready to speak and play golf again , we will still recieve you with open arms, respect and awe.

The payout for being a mega celebrity is all the trappings: fine cars& clothes, homes ect….the drawback is it is too hard to handle power if you are immature. Most celebs like most people do lack enough of the character and integrity to handle fame and many use crutches: drugs, alcohol and other addictions like sex to help them manage the pressure. Being the supposed model husband, althlete, father ect. especially for the mostly white audience not expecting most African Americans to live up to these high standards only adds to the heaviness. Since Tiger no longer has his trusted dad at his side he seems to have said to hell with it all.

Personally, I think the 'accident' and whatever other incidents occurred around that scene, was and should have remained a private matter. It is my understanding that Mr.Woods had not broken any laws, at the time of the accident. And yet, he was incessantly hounded by the media machine and its obsessive and greedy need to get the 'next story', to boost the ratings.

I am fed up and disgusted with the cheap shots that media personalities, such as you, Ms. Dimond, take at celebrities that SHOULD have a right to their privacy, as each and every one of us enjoy.
