Memorial Day arrest latest blemish on Tiger Woods’ storied life
Jupiter - The storied and troubled life of Tiger Woods now includes a DUI arrest.
Jupiter police stopped the golf legend, and Jupiter Island resident, around 3 a.m. Monday as he drove southbound on Military Trail south of Indian Creek Parkway, a police spokeswoman said.
The area is near Jupiter Middle School and 1 to 2 miles south of Indiantown Road.
10:04 is right on the money. I would bet that this is prescription pain killer-related. Four back surgeries? Oxycodone for sure. There is no doubt he is addicted. That's not the face of a drunk. I will say this in his defense: I do not completely blame him (if it is Oxy-related). I personally know some fine, upstanding people that have fallen solely due to these types of pain killers. One, if fact, actually resorted to purchasing Heroin, and he had never had so much of even an alcoholic beverage in his life. It is instantly addicting. Mentally and physically. There has been no other more serious drug threat ever in out nation than the prescribing - over-prescribing - of these opioids. I wish him the best.
A few years ago I would've completely agreed with you. But no longer. Oxy is a completely different ball game, even when used as directed. This isn't like lighting a crack pipe or sticking that spike of Heroin in your arm the first time. I have no sympathy at all for those people. These are people that simply want to control severe pain. Two weeks of a correct dosage for pain can and will lead to a degree of an inadvertent addiction. Research the findings. You'll be enlightened - and amazed.
Ban alcohol or limit the purchase with arrest. Place the same laws and money on it as we are with heroin. 10x more people die or get injured alcohol related. Time to take action.
10:41 I am living prove you are incorrect with the research crap. Not going to display my experience here, but have used this and many more prescription medications for years that you would not believe. The pain killers are used for just that and only soften the blow. Just speaking for myself, perhaps fortunate.
I agree with you - except for the "research crap" statement. Of course there will be exceptions to dependency, and I'm sure that's noted in research. You certainly seem knowledgeable on pain medications, so I'm sure you'll confirm that opioids work and work very well and quickly to subside any severe pain. I too can speak from experience. An accident that resulted in a sprained back had me taking Oxy for two weeks. The third week without it was a bit difficult, even though the pain had just about gone away. I thank God that my doctor refused to issue a refill, and instead prescribed a TENS unit when I went to see him. To some, it's HIGHLY addicting. Basically, it's Heroin, just 200% more expensive. You are fortunate. And so was I.
Anyone remember John Daly and his fall from grace after the surprising win at the Masters? All went to his head and he became a raging alcoholic. Now comes the Tiger; scraping the bottom of the barrel.
It's the fault of big Pharma. Paying for research that stated these drugs are not addictive. Docs prescribe them and looks what happens. Now we have an epidemic. Another big lie.
1225 I agree. It took me a long time to get sober and I wished I never started drinking. Its reported 100k die a year from alcohol but that doesn't include all of the unreported misery. BAN THE DRUG. It is the MOST abused drug in the USA... Billionaire liberal owners keep getting richer off middle class drug abuse
Looser, looser can't get his game on or his act together, this has been since he ruined his marriage with his cheating and that was years ago now. It's a downward spiral when your head swells like his did.
You're welcome. Nothing demeans good character and intelligent talking points more than simple 3rd grade spelling errors. It glaringly takes away from the content. Your life will certainly now change for the better.
8:07 so now were going to blame the father, he has no responsibility in his life---look closely he's a man not a child. He's just another over paid spoiled sport idol!
He had a promising career. He was on his way to being one of greatest golfers in history. Success can be the downfall of many a great person. Money and celebrity can buy you all the women, drugs, and comfort, but I guess they all come at a cost. Sometimes you have to hit bottom before you can see your way up again. I truly hope he can be great once again.
Wow, how Tiger has fallen. Looks strung out besides being drunk.
ReplyDeleteTiger ain't looking so good!
ReplyDeleteHe looks like John Gosselin

This is on him and nobody or anything else. You don't use prescribed meds correct, don't blame it on nothing but yourself.

Two weeks of a correct dosage for pain can and will lead to a degree of an inadvertent addiction.

His ex should have hit him harder!!!
ReplyDeleteOn a positive note he is worh 740 MILLION dollars so plushy rehab will fix him up...
ReplyDeleteI guess he's upset because his latest Bro-Ho Lindsey Vonn left him for another one. She will never find a decent Caucasian.
ReplyDeleteall that has to be done is a blood alcohol...
ReplyDeleteBan alcohol or limit the purchase with arrest. Place the same laws and money on it as we are with heroin. 10x more people die or get injured alcohol related. Time to take action.
ReplyDeleteHang in there Tiger.
ReplyDeleteMade my day!
ReplyDelete🤣😂🤣

Oxycontin - $27.00. Heroin - $8.00.
DeleteHow do I know that?

ReplyDeleteHe is no different than Michael Jackson, father pushed golf on him at age 5, he was never allowed to be a kid. So now, he does not know how to act.
ReplyDeleteWhen fathers push their kids to be rich and famous for their goals.
Wait for it, the Serena sisters are next.

ReplyDeleteago now. It's a downward spiral when your head swells like his did.
It's "loser" by the way. I know it doesn't look right, but it's "loser", not looser.
DeleteHe hasn't ever been the same since his wife nailed him with a 4-iron.
ReplyDeleteLive by the sword - die by the sword.

ReplyDeleteThank you almighty one for the grand advice. This correction has changed my life for the better.
You're welcome. Nothing demeans good character and intelligent talking points more than simple 3rd grade spelling errors. It glaringly takes away from the content.
DeleteYour life will certainly now change for the better.
You are right. It makes the writer look like a looser.
DeleteSome people act like they know about addiction, but they don't. know the half of it.
ReplyDeleteHe is TEFLON ....JUST LIKE OJ so he will get Off !!!!
ReplyDeleteHe still has the Race card > with Unlimited Miles !!!
He was just out with his White Girls all night and worn out
ReplyDelete8:07 so now were going to blame the father, he has no responsibility in his life---look closely he's a man not a child. He's just another over paid spoiled sport idol!

ReplyDeleteI saw an update that it was a reaction to some medicine so you may be correct.
6:45 "is living prove" IT IS NOT ADDICTING LOL
ReplyDeleteHe had a promising career. He was on his way to being one of greatest golfers in history. Success can be the downfall of many a great person. Money and celebrity can buy you all the women, drugs, and comfort, but I guess they all come at a cost. Sometimes you have to hit bottom before you can see your way up again.
