		<description><![CDATA[Thanks danielle, you actually covered both of the main points in this debate. It&#039;s good to hear non-golf fans are watching, no matter what the reason is!

It is a difficult issue because no matter what he does now, the public will not be happy. If he tries to move on with his golf game, people criticize him for ignoring his personal mistakes. If he tries to focus on his personal life, he is criticized for not doing what he does best: golf. 

I think this clearly points out that the choices he made in his personal life affected his professional life as well. People say it doesn&#039;t matter that he did these things because it is his personal life, but it DOES matter because it is affecting his professional career! Sponsors dropped, fans lost, months without tournament play...The people who say his personal actions don&#039;t matter should really step back and look at the entire issue.

With that said, I just want to point out that I think the public is discussing the wrong issue. Yes, Tiger Woods cheated on his wife and won major golf tournaments at the same time...he isn&#039;t a moral person. That doesn&#039;t really matter when we watch him hook a ball 40 yards around a tree and land it five feet from the pin.

What actually matters is the possible STEROID USE of Tiger Woods. For those of you who are not aware, Tiger Woods chose to utilize a Canadian doctor who isn&#039;t licensed in the U.S. That same doctor was caught bringing steroids into the country.  

Because this happened around the same time as the Woods sex scandal, it was pushed under the rug and out of the public&#039;s attention.  BUT THIS IS THE REAL ISSUE! If Tiger Woods has been using steroids, all of his major wins and records are MEANINGLESS.

It seems like Tiger Woods CHOSE to put attention on the sex scandal. If Woods is caught cheating on his wife, his achievements stand. If Tiger Woods is caught using steroids, his achievements turn to dust.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I actually started watching the tournament on the last day when Mickelson made that amazing shot in your picture. I don&#039;t know anything about golf, but even I knew that was a great shot. My dad and brother watch golf a lot so I was excited to watch the end..just the end. But I also knew this was Tiger&#039;s first tournament back and what I realized while watching it, was that I didn&#039;t care he was there. He was interviewed when he was done and I was a little annoyed that he mentioned he wanted everyone to just move on. He chose the life of athlete, I am sorry but that puts your personal life on display. It is like an actor, it is time for him to just accept it and move on himself. He may want to forget, but I will say the sooner he gets back on the regular golf trail (or whatever it is called) the sooner people will remember he is a golfer and his personal life is his own. Hiding is not going to help anything.]]></description>
