Tiger's Trouble: He's Got Company


Tiger's Torrid Tale. It is everywhere this week. By now, you know all the latest details. But, Eldrick Tont Woods is not the first superstar to find himself on the wrong end of an angry wife and possibly a 3 iron.

In just the sports world you have the legendary (Babe Ruth, and Joe DiMaggio) and the infamous (Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant.) By the way, none of those guys are remembered for their indiscretions.


The experts say the stars cheat for the same reason Joe Blow does. In The USA Today, Israel Helfand, a marriage and family therapist says, "The underlying piece is the fact they're not getting the kind of attention or intimacy they're looking for within their primary relationship. That's true for women as well."


In the end, it does appear the media is partly to blame for all the attention. But, even the experts agree celebs tend to have issues. Hefland says, "A lot of rich and famous celebrities have a pretty poor self-esteem. For them, I would agree it's not so much about the sex as it is feeling about being desired."
