This may go back to one of the first lessons preached by Mom.......always look both ways before crossing.....and maybe another.....always wear clean underwear. Very good to hear he's okay though. Hate to see someone get burned for trying to help someone.
I may be taking something out of context but her last comment...."we wouldn't have traded it for anything"......sure seems like past tense to me. Does she know something and slip a little maybe? I sure hope not. It would be simply fantastic to have him (and Spievey) back with Claiborne again next year and make another big run at the Big Ten title and beyond.
Hopefully, Claiborne's decision to stay will help us keep Bulaga and Spievey for another year. We'll be extremely tough next year if they all come back......Here's to hoping !!!!
YIKES !!!!!!!!! I knew I shoulda went to Miami for the bowl game......
I can't imagine....how terrible that would be. All the sympathy I can muster goes out to this young family.
Ugh.....Don't really mind the snow so much...except for the crazies that can't drive in it, but I could surely do without extreme cold. Mid 20's to mid 30's is fine by me.
WOW......Some very strong judgments in here today from some very high quality people apparently. I'm assuming ya'll know the people in this story??? You must....how else could you say these things without feeling a bit idiotic yourself.....okay, not totally true....it's pretty easy to pass judgement on young Deon. One can pretty much assume about him after what he did. But the mother ??? How does anyone here know who she is. Would you be saying these things if I told you that she is a 19 year old white girl from a wealthy family??.....or maybe she is a little older and responsibe (for the most part...minus the getting knocked up by an 18 year old) with a good job and a decent life. Granted, unlikely scenarios, but possibilities none the less. It seems a bit ridiculous to pass judgement on this woman/girl based on only one irresponsible fact.....that she went and got pregnant from some 18 year old apparent thug.
I don't know you but the idiocy of your comment makes you as big a dumba** as the moron in the story. But it's all good.......I'm sure idiocy is your only flaw.
You are correct....they do. However, from the start, being under the influence of anything was not a big concern. The main reason they are after hospital records is to see the origin of his injuries. The toxicology is a sidebar compared to the injuries. Besides, nothing in my comments said the the police didn't have a right to be doing what they are doing. I simply stated that they are not giving him preferential treatment (and may be going to the other extreme) because it's Tiger Woods.
The fact that he is "being allowed" to not talk to police about the accident has nothing to do with him being a celebrity. The law there does not require a police interview. In no way is this thing being played out as Tiger being above the law. He has done what is required by law. If anything, the cops are going further than they might with a "normal" person by trying to subpoena his hospital records. He did not leave the scene, he didn't hit another vehicle or person and therefore has no obligation to interview with police. I'm sure they can hit him with a ticket for not maintaining control, but they are digging for more. I don't really care much about what happens in this deal in the end (although it is somewhat entertaining, which is why I'm paying attention), but many people posting on this situation need to get their facts straight before saying he is being treated better than we would. It's probably worse for him. No one....not even police (in my opinion).....would be paying this much attention if it wasn't Tiger Woods.
