Infamous golf player Tiger Woods, made a public apology to the world last Friday regarding his infidelities. Woods' public plea dominated local networks, bringing all daytime talk shows to a halt as if the president himself were speaking.
The apology was strategic and served as a way for Woods to redeem himself, while being forgiven for the content of his character. Tiger's speech addressed his fans, endorsers, his wife, children, close friends and family, where he admitted to being sorry, confessed that his wife didn't attack him as rumors suggested, he rejected the notion that he ever used steroids, admitted that he lost his religion so he'll be turning back to Buddhism, and of course he will continue to play golf.

Do you think Tiger should have made a public apology?
His behavior within his marriage has nothing to do with the American people; sure it makes for great gossip, sells many magazines, and keep the paparazzi paid but this is somebody's life. Whatever happened to letting people grieve in private?
Tiger's wife decided not to show up to his public apology, but seriously can you blame her?
