[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 326059"] One of my professors said something kinda interesting today... She thinks that certain people in the news, like high ranking government officials, it might be noteworthy if they are involved in extra marital affairs,..especially so many. Perhaps this 'speaks" to their integrity, honesty, trustworthiness, etc. However, with Tiger Woods, his claim to fame is his ability to play golf. Perhaps the companies he works for in terms of endorsement might have a concerrn,..but that is another story. As far as the general public, it doesn't make good sense to have this much of an interest because again, his "job" is to play golf and playing golf has nothing to do with morals, religion, honesty, marriage voes, etc. It really seems excessive to me (although I do NOT endorse his behavior by any means). She thinks anyone who has a strong interest might be really troubled by their own problems currently and this seems even "bigger" and therefore is of interest. And given the state of our economy, etc. perhaps this is a distraction. It's just a thought...who really knows for sure...and I'm sure each case is different. --------- Did not hear that thing about the "net" worth of folks going up...it is curious and very hard to believe.
