So Tiger is in a facility for sex addiction.  Why doesn't he just watch The View. Its cheaper. Easier.  Faster.  And if that doesn't cure him, nothing will.
Poor Tiger Woods never set himself up as a paragon of virtue or a champion of traditional values.  He is a golfer, and a damn good one.

I think what offends me about the whole story is not so much Tiger's adultery, or even his wife taking a golf club to him in her rage,: I understand human nature and sin.  The Rev has studied it too deeply for his own comfort.

What bothers me is the media's faux-righteous indignation at Tiger's sins, when all TV and the rest of the Mass Media has done for the past 40 years is fill our houses and minds with filth.  Adultery happened, but it wasn't until TV made it seem normal that we think it's normal.  So how is it that these media-whores, purveyors of sleaze, the greatest snake oil salesmen of all time have the f-ing nerve to chirp and dis Tiger.

If The Rev were Tiger's confessor The Rev would say, "Tiger: good confession.  Now when you leave this booth, the media is going to try to break you.  They are worse than the Inquisition ever was.  I want you to say, "Whatever I am guilty of, I made a confession to a priest, and I am no longer guilty.  It is in the past, and I don't need you to remind me of my failures.  You jackasses, hypocrites, and other assorted ****heads don't have the right to say jack until you pull the audio-video feces you call entertainment off of the airwaves and put something on that won't rot our minds and hearts.  You're just jealous that I pulled so much hot ass while you go back to your flabby, bloated bon-bon eating, sex-withholding third wife who can't even cook a microwave dinner.  Your lives suck.  You try to make a living by sucking life out of winners like me.  You can all suck all you want, but it won;t be on the end of my dick.  I've still got a hot wife at home, and she loves her meat light brown.  So, I would like to close this statement, with a deep and sincere F*** YOU ALL, and go F*** youselves, you dirty motherF***ers.  Thank you and good night." "

The Rev just can't stand any of these media whores chirping anyone.

P.S.  BTW, the Rev would like to apologize to any whores who are offended by being compared to Mass Media.  I respect your profession, as you serve a valued purpose in this world, while the mainstream media does not.

+k rev, very true. dlip has refuses to watch any of the news on tv regarding the disaster in Haiti. These ****ing networks and so called news journalists ****ing love every minute of human pain and exploit it to the fullest. Even in our local paper here in Shocktown the other day put a picture on the front page of this poor man about to die reaching out for food. It was the worst ****in pic dlip has almost ever seen and it was printed for one reason and one reason alone; to sell ****in newspapers.

I was watching some program last week where the "reporter" was interviewing a Doctor who had come to Haiti on his own with his wife and father in law (also Doctors).  They were talking about shortages of medicine, clean sheets, medical equipment and even alcohol to clean the instruments they had.  The reporter was commenting on how he had just left the airport where they had LOADS of supplies, but they couldn't get them to the Doctors because of the failed infrastructure.  In the background the Doctor's wife was about to amputate a person's leg with a Hacksaw they dug out of the rubble and had to clean the best they could with a bottle of Vodka, the only thing they had because they ran out of the medical alcohol.

All along I'm thinking, "Why the HELL didn't the reporters bring some of the DAMN Supplies that they needed?"  Instead, the wanted to report on the situation at hand.

F-ing ridiculous.

I might need a late pass on this one, but only one of the cast memebers of Jersey Shore are actually from New Jersey (according to wikipedia.com which has a pretty good summary of the show).  3 are from Staten Island, Snookie is from Orange County, NY and DJ Pauli is from Rhode Island!

And Sammi played soccer at d3 William Patterson.

Dlip, + dlipping K for the use of the term "broad". Dame, skirt, doll, dollface, would also have qualified you for K.

How come my Rev doesn't talk like that? Cmon, Rev, lose the day job and go back to being a Rev, I'd go to church every day and twice on Sundays. We could get you a TV show (hell, a TV channel), and I guarantee that kind of sermonizing would make you rich beyond your wildest dreams. + K for the rant.

JT's Catholic.  One of the biggest beefs JT has with Catholic religion is not letting priests marry.  They used to allow it.  The reason they stopped, M-O-N-E-Y.  If priest had little or no family, the church would get most or all of the priest's estate.  Certainly helped turn it into the wealthiest religion.

There are two ways to get top notch women in America if you are ugly.  One is to be famous, and the other is to have money.  Tiger has both, so he gets top notch women.  Im not sure if women think he is ugly or not, but that doesn't even matter if you have one of the other two.

Now, the media clowns can't really be famous, but they can make money.  How do you make money?  Putting Tiger stories and pictures in the media.  Now these media clowns can have money and top notch tail just like Tiger.

Its a never ending cycle.

But that brings me to my second point.  I don't get the sex rehab thing either.  I would have taken pictures of my bloody face and shown the world that I lived in an abusive relationship and had no choice but to find solace in the arms (or legs) of other women......Not saying its right, but the sexrehab thing ain't right either.

yup...supposedly everyone there does not like having him there. as a admitted sex addict in this rehab facility your supposed to help in all the chores at the facility, like prepping/cooking/cleaning up all the meals, doing laundry, cleaning the facility and they have said tiger doesnt have to do any of that he just hangs out all day...so you know he has the wandering eyes and hands while he is there...the old saying "idle hands are the devil's workshop..." rings true one would wager

Couldn't agree with you more, it's my biggest beef with the church. I'm Irish Catholic, with some priests/nuns in my family history (none in this generation), but always had an issue with the ban on marriages, and with all of the scandals, it's gotten to the point that I wouldn't dare let any of my kids be altar boys, and have thoughts about chosing another religion. The church is out of touch with the real world.

 Given Don "Moose" Lewis's press announcements, I thought at first this had to be an article in The Onion. Sadly, it is not. This just in: Ignorant, racist crackers are alive and well in the South. Couldn't make this stuff up if you tried. Why doesn't the guy just rent a copy of "Hoosiers"?

The All-American Basketball Alliance announced in a news release Sunday evening that it intends to start its inaugural season in June and hopes Augusta will be one of 12 cities with a team.

"Only players that are natural born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league," the statement said.


Don "Moose" Lewis, the commissioner of the AABA, said the reasoning behind the league's roster restrictions is not racism.

"There's nothing hatred about what we're doing," he said. "I don't hate anyone of color. But people of white, American-born citizens are in the minority now. Here's a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like."

Lewis said he wants to emphasize fundamental basketball instead of "street-ball" played by "people of color." He pointed out recent incidents in the NBA, including Gilbert Arenas' indefinite suspension after bringing guns into the Washington Wizards locker room, as examples of fans' dissatisfaction with the way current professional sports are run.

"Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?" he said. "That's the culture today, and in a free country we should have the right to move ourselves in a better direction."

The Atlanta-based league, which will operate as a single-entity owning all of its teams, is looking for local contacts to pay $10,000 to become a "licensee" in one of 12 cities throughout the Southeast. Lewis said he has already received threats from people opposed to the roster restrictions and several cities have told him to stay out of town. Lewis said he has yet to hear from any one in Augusta.

"We need a local person ingrained into the community to make this successful," he said.

Lewis said he expects to eventually find support in every town with a team.

"People will come out and support a product they can identify with. I'm the spoken minority right now, but if people will give us a chance, it'll work... The white game of basketball, which is essentially a fundamental game, works."
