Scarlet A

Some years ago, I had a random lunch at the Chicago Airport while waiting for a flight with a professional golfer who had a modicum of success of the PGA tour.
~
The conversation got around to who were the stand up guys in Professional Golf, and who were the jerks.
~
Guys like Tiger and Phil Mikelson came up on the short end of this guy's assessment... in the category of those who were fairly full of themselves and gave no consideration to the rank and file players.

~

It was interesting, but it didn't deter me from being a Tiger fan.   I like the way that Woods plays golf.  Really don't care if he tips the clubhouse attendant, is courteous to his fellow competitors, or seeks out a little extra poontang.  It would be nice if he was perfect in all aspects, but I just care about his mastery and talent in the game of Golf.

Anything else is just voyeurism.

But society still needs to label others with a Scarlet Letter.... pressing all of the attention and blame on others and leaving the rest of us alone with our depravities.   Tiger is in for the Hester Prinn treatment for a while.  Looks like the law of Karma is kicking in.

This innocent looking young lady, Rachel Uchitel, has vehemently denied having an affair with Tiger.

Tiger.... How could you????
