It seems like every time Mr. Woods get close to winning these days, something gets in his head, and he enters loser land. I'm aware Mr. Woods won a tournament awhile back, but it seems like Mr. Woods is having trouble with his mental situation on the golf course. I'm no Tiger Woods fan, frankly I think he's a arrogent, disrespectful jackass, but after so many meltdowns the last 2 years or so, I'm (almost) beginning to feel sorry for him. π

What he later found out is that, as much as the American media loves to build a superstar, they love even more to tear him down.

One of the biggest problems with people who have money is that you rarely get your arse ripped for things you should. You inevitably become surrounded by "yes" men and women who only want a check from you.
It goes something like this.
"What do you say I buy the Elephant man?"
"Sure, sounds good."
"How about I sleep in hyperbaric chambers every night?"
"Yep, you the man."
"In fact, how about a dose of propofol to help me sleep at night?"
"Just say when and where."
Of course, this all comes to an abrupt hault with an angry wife at the other end of a golf club. π
The post that was quoted here has been removedThat is only one example and it is a biased example. Nobody in America wants to bring Lance Armstrong down because of what he went through. People would rather believe that he did it without performance enhancing drugs because it makes themselves feel better.
In other words, his story is a feel-good story that nobody in America wants to wreck because they feel he somehow represents what it is to be american.
