Tiger Woods: Sorry For Saying Something Totally Acceptable
Tiger Woods apologized for using the term “spaz” to describe his putting during the Masters, a remark that was criticized outside the United States as insensitive.
Woods’ agent, Mark Steinberg, said in a statement posted on Woods’ Web site that the world’s top-ranked golfer was “poking fun at himself and meant no disrespect to anyone.”
In several countries, “spaz” is an offensive term for people with cerebral palsy. London-based Scope, formerly the Spastics Society, denounced Woods’ remark as “appalling and insensitive,” and international newspapers also criticized him.
Wow. So he used a word that is perfectly innocuous where he comes from, and a bunch of limeys get upset because the term means something mildly offensive on their rainy little island. Boo-fucking hoo. I don’t hear gay people getting pissed at the brits for calling cigarettes “fags.” I know he’s a public figure and everything, but does the guy have to watch every word that comes out of his filthy rich mouth?
What a retard.
Any excuse…The world just looks for any excuse to get pissed off at the USA. All the other countries in the world are worse than old gossipy women about this shit, and for some reason we keep putting up with it.
Well yeh but,noone here was getting pissed at the USA. From what I read it was people getting annoyed at Tiger, and to them I think we should all say \”fuck off, leave him alone, who cares?\”
meh..fuck’em all.tiger woods is a huge quivering pussy for not laughing at them.damn spaz’s
