I mean how stupid could Tiger be? This gal was a meeting planner for parties and was known to have been involved with other married men. Can we say dumba*ss? My gosh...a blind guy would see this one coming.
She isn't exactly Ms. Demure. I wouldn't exactly call her a floozy, but a wild child who has no regard for anyone else is my guess. What does SHE have to lose?
Of course there are high end escorts for pro athletes and Senators and Mr. CEO. He knows this. Heck, we ALL should know this by now with the Charlie Sheens and Elliott Spitzer fiascos. He really is dumb, because these ladies know their place (which is to provide time/entertainment until they are to go away) and don't fall in love with their clients.
Now Tiger has a pissed off wife, mother-in-law and probably mother (or else mother is just embarrassed and disappointed = spoken like the mother of a son that I am). Why put everyone thru this...unless, again, he wants out for some reason and this is his unconscious or conscious way of doing it.
By the way, I used to take my son when he was growing up to the boxing events in Houston, which were boxers just turning pro. Cheap to live and train there, so they start there and move then to Atlantic City or around NY/NJ and then Vegas.
We would go to the boxing matches--and need I say we stood out as there were no kids there, a few older Black ladies who worked in the offices or had sons boxing and TONS and TONS of hookers--so even at the lower levels there are lots of working gals looking for business while working, too. I'm not talking about gum cracking, skunky looking ladies either, but attractive, well-groomed, younger women (usually 20's-30's) dressed in tight, shorter, low sexy outfits on 4" heels, perfectly made up, and trotting around with some older guys usually....duh...even I got that one. Anyway, it isn't like he would have to wonder where to find someone in that business if he has half a brain.
We were there for the boxing, however.
Tiger's been told he was "special" since he was a toddler. Remember him on tv with Bob Hope and other stars when he was like 3? I'm going to go along with the definitions of narcissist that USA Today has in the paper (available on the net) which says narcissistic leaders are often cheaters and always looking for the next best thing.
He'll keep doing this, so she either decides to put up with it or leaves. Maybe Ellie will be like Mrs. Bob Hope (a notorious cheater) and just live with him and refuse to have sex with him for like 40 years.
