From BVonSports.com:

I knew it was going to happen. As I explained to Don Lemon last night on CNN (the clip is below if you’d like to see it), there is a strong risk of Tiger Woods becoming “OJ Simpsonized” by his recent scandal. He started off as Barack Obama and with one exposure after another, he slides down the slope and ends up in no man’s land.

Well, Glenn Beck fulfilled that prophecy on his show, by comparing Tiger Woods to OJ Simpson.This scandal may get worse for Tiger Woods before it gets better. I spoke with Rev. Al Sharpton this afternoon, a man who I consider to be incredibly savvy when it comes to politics (notice that he was one of the few black public figures not to lose his power during the rise of Barack Obama). Rev. Sharpton made a very good point that Tiger Woods doesn’t have a base of support, which is also going to hurt him during his media on-slaught. When Sharpton and others spoke up in support of Woods after a golf announcer made a joke about “lynching him in a back alley,” Tiger promptly waved off his supporters by acting as if they were in the wrong. As a result, no one is standing up for him now.

    i agree with you califemme23

    The root of this is white supremacy. Every time a black athlete transcends his sport, the media will try to knock him off that pedastal. I’m actually very surprised it took so long and I really thought they would try to link him to steroids though, never thought it would come this way, but I knew it would happen eventually. Lebron is next!!

    these athletes bring themselves down! they’re big headed, have no self control and think rules don’t apply to them. wht folks just have to give it a little time and the athlete will f up!

    and i know the media are quick to tear a blk but these ni99as sure make it easy for’em!

    right you are Jack_Stephen1

    I never can understand the essence of white women these nlggas be having….they skin remind me of pigsskin not a football but a real pig!! maybe it’s because they are docile and black men cannot handle the challenge A Queen has 2 offer…..not all black women but SOME with enough sense not 2 feed in2 the program this society gives them

    The Queen of all is the only woman I am ever going 2 have admiration 4

    oooooo weeeeee @NANA_ Please speak on it!!! THANK YOU! WE have ONE black man on our side…

    @_A_: This is NOT white supremacy babe, NO ONE can control who these black athletes etc..stick their d*icks into. Thats part of the problem right there…too many people give these men an OUT as to why they do what they do…Oh this one cheated ‘ITS THE WHITE MAN BRINGING US DOWN!” The he*ll do white people have to do with these grown men making stupid mistakes?? Let them grow up and take responsibility for their actions.

    I see no one has said anything different so i will say it (jokingly)
    @ CaliFemme23… Umm learn to pick a better white women? LOL im sorry that was wrong… but really I see what is coming. I got cussed out by a lot of men and women at my job last year for saying that he was trying to ditch the comment made about lynching him because he doesnt consider himself a blackman (at all). Now im getting dirty looks like I told him to cheat or something SMH… LOL I bet you they are thinking “That no good better not say anything to me!”

    I do have to agree with Jack_Stephen1 though… about the athletes.. what ARE they really thinking sometimes anyway… Kind of like Barkley said years ago… “People shouldnt treat athletes like role models or think of what they do as glamor” or something like that. Because the media does look for anything to go wrong.

    Nonsense.Tiger is in trouble because he had several affairs, as if 1 would have been any better, while he was married and had 2 kids,a toddler and an infant. If Tiger had affairs with Black women and was married to a Black woman, would we be happy? No. Happy for what, immoral behavior. If Tiger were married to a White woman and had 1 affair with a Black woman, would we be happy? No.Happy for what, immoral behavior.
    Tiger Woods messed up. Tiger Woods brought himself down. Tiger Woods gave himself a good geeky guy role model image and then added family man to seal the deals, those big endorsement deals. He lied. He was not what he said he was.
    Had Tiger stayed single, this would not be big deal. Good gossip still, but not a big deal. He would have kept all his endorsements and good name. What, a single man having several girlfriends? No… Nothing wrong with that. LOL. Ex. Derek Jeter is a man wh’ore. He was named some kind of athlete of the year thing. Ohhh, Derek is Black Amer. and 1/2 other. I think his mom is White American or Latina. Derek Jeter does not come under racial attack by you guys or by Blacks so-called leaders. Derek does not be around all causes Black and anybody Black, be them right or wrong. Derek does not give his name and support to the Al Shap’tons. Derek does his thing. Lives his life. He dates exclusively White girls. So what!!
    Tiger’s situation is not a Black thing. I disagree with Shap’ton.
    Tiger is 1/2 Black and 1/2 Thai. Should he denounce his mother and his culture learned and inherited from her? No. Should he denounce his father? No.

    Oh and the Glen Beck ….this creature is a very powerful voice for the right and very one-sided,unfair,and wrong. That is scary. He ,like Al Shap’ton , is a good divider of people. Beck likes to divide Democrat vs. Repub.
    Shap’ton likes to divide racially.

    He says Tiger does not have a support base. Yes,Tiger does have a support base. He has fellow
    athletes,
    the PGA, and some fans. After he lays low, Elin divorces him, he’ll be back on the golf courses. He has lost many fans and mostly likely won’t get them back.He can still play on the PGA. What he did was personally wrong, an error in good judgement , but not illegal.
    That is my opinion this thread.—————-

    Correction-Derek Jeter’s mother is White.
    Derek dated Garbrile Union.
    He dated 1 Black girl. Stilll WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

    all that money and tiger woods needs Viagra, hahahahahahahaha,don’t compare them , besides tiger woods mental capacity there is a total difference, he is not insane, he might need to repair his bat and balls, because they dont work anymore

    i don’t think 0jay needed Viagra, just a psychiatrist,and psychological examination , for abnormal nut bags, so there is no comparison

    KML-at the topic and the comments. The only thing that bring OJ and Tiger Woods together is they both married white women and cheated on them. As for ole redneck glenn B!TCH is always trying to showboat sh!t,with his racist a$$. Lets compare him to something….hummm a p3rkwood or klan? I say both.

    Point blank is… everyone can do whoever they want to do and I don’t care. The news reporter asked why do black women care if Tiger doesn’t want them… I’m like we have to stop caring.

    NOW? How is Tiger W going to Compare with OJ OUTSIDE of his preference for Clalked Face Ho’s? OJ is a 1st Rate Trick-Off Just like Tiger-W! Being a Trick is something both of them does have in common! OJ never held a nationwide press conference letting it be known, “He is NOT a Black Man/African American,” but OJ showed his preference is CHALKED FACE HO’S hand’s down! Tiger is in a Class By Himself unless another BIG RELATION IS SOON TO EXPLODE ONTO THE SCENE!!!???
