5-DVD Giveaway for Night at the Museum 2.

Hell hath no fury like a woman with a 5 iron?

Will we see Tiger Woods in Thousand Oaks Monday? Will we get the real story? What do you think of the possible tables turned angle in light of the Chris Brown incident? And who do get your news from first these days?

The details are salacious, but the questions are serious. It’s not the TMZ tabloid literal car wreck you can’t look away from here that's got me, it’s the question of possible privileged coverup, what we learned from Rhianna and who is the most trusted name in news that trips me up.

Some quick story catch up: it seems Tiger hit the road Thanksgiving night at 2am. Weird. Backed into a fire hydrant and tree. Weirder. Had cuts on his face (TMZ says from his wife). Not good. He was "rescued" from his Cadillac when his wife bashed the back window with a golf club (really?). Whoa. And then she was found giving him first aid as he was semiconscious in front of his car when police arrived. Hmm?

The whole scene was breaking news on every channel. A little hyped, yes, but because Tiger is the world’s golf God and his injuries could have effected his career and the status of the world’s most recognizable athlete, I see the newsworthiness.

Anyway, wonder what you think of this story as the details trickle in. Me? I’m wondering if the alleged details are true, and his wife pulled a Carrie Underwood “Before He Cheats,” should he stay with his family? Is it good for the kids? Would he stay to save face? Is free speech bring practiced by all parties here in reporting the case? Do we get our news first from the TMZ’s who aren’t afraid to release the non-pc scoop, or do we wait on the CNN’s who want all to be 100% verified and who are probably sitting on scoop? (TMZ did one-up CNN on Balloon Boy, Edwards etc. )

I don’t want to snark the story really (though I couldn't resist the song), as it’s sad on many levels and who knows what’s true. I just think it’s interesting on many levels too. I wish the Woods the best, peace and harmony, I just think all stories should be treated equal.

Wonder what you think? And do you even care?

You're post is the first I've heard about this. I must be really out of the loop--oh, and it's golf related, so...

You're playing me, right? If she used a hockey stick I'm confident you would have heard.

Not sure if it was a 5 iron, but as the story unfolds, I'm sure I feel like I wanna take a shower. Ick. Glad Tiger is physically fine. I wrote this when the fluid news broke and he sounded in bad form, semiconscious etc. Still amazed how TMZ is cited as source on Fox, CNN etc. and how they seem accurate on a lot. Good luck Tiger, you've done worlds of good with charity and talent. Hope you stay the course, and outta the doghouse.
