Think twice before you 'Just Do It'

Oh, the perils of being Tiger Woods. My heart goes out to Elin and all spouses who endure the horrors of an unfaithful marriage. But how much of it is our business? I like to think that I don't easily get wrapped up in the drama of Hollywood and sports, but the fact of the matter is that when you are widely considered the world's best (and highest paid) athlete, you have an obligation to the public. I wish he would have refrained from Nike's trademark and NOT just done it. But where do Elin and Tiger go from here? Some who are close to Elin say that she should have used a tire iron or an oversized club instead of a wimpy 3-iron to smash his car windows. Others say that she is lucky because now she's sitting on a cool $3 Million just because her pre-nup states that if he cheats she gets an automatic paycheck. How weird is that? Can we put price tags on adultery? Damn. I don't know where this leaves the two of them, but I hope they don't start a divorce and custody battle over this because the kids deserve better parents than that.
