I find that hard to believe. I don't think all of the Tiger drama has really cost $12Billion.

First of all, you dont have to debate this with me, as I have no idea. The study was conducted by 2 UC Davis Economic Advisors though. Id think they may be more knowledgable on these matters than most of us huddlers would be.

The article said 5-12 billion.

That's pretty stupid, but the markets aren't always rational and I could see how something like this could fluctuate the stocks of these companies, whether for the right or wrong.

I don't see where anyone specifically called you out..so how are they debating with you? They are just commenting on the article..if you don't want them to comment on your article..don't start a thread about it. Pretty logical. As for the ARTICLE..I seen this a couple days ago..that's what I thought too..BS..how the hell can they say what this is/isn't going to cost anyone? A man cheated on his wife..big deal..I don't see where that will cost ANYONE (except Tiger) a lot of money.

World leaders and religous leaders should read this forum. All answers are here.

In all honesty, there are some really intelligent people here.

People own shares of stock in companies that Tiger used to advertise for, and when you have a figurehead like Tiger who's no longer seen as a "good guy", it can affect a person's perception of that company. Like I said, it may not be justified, but it certainly can have affect on a lot of people other than just Tiger Woods.

I think those numbers are seriously bloated. I hear old Tiger is still shackin up with one of his ho's. Sounds like he was a serious bum behind the scenes.

You and I finally agree on something, you have no idea.

Maybe we could sign a two year deal, oh, sorry, you're from Dover, one year deal it is.

Tiger will be "pinch'in pennies" in 2010.
