Tiger Woods in Car Accident

How can you be is serious condition but treated and released from the hospital?

Sounds like another case of each media outlet rushing to be first with a story, and f***ing the whole thing up.

If you're Tiger Woods and you break a finger nail it might hurt your golf swing or putting game. That would be a serious condition that he could be immediately released from the hospital with.

They must have meant serious as in we're not kidding.

Facial lacerations - is that going to cut down on his Gillette commericals for a while? Wonder if we'll ever hear the true story, but guessing it is good.

No kidding. From "serious" condition we are now at shaving cut/boo boo stage.

But at least all the news outlets got to kill some time on a slow news day.

Now that this story has run it's course they can cover last nights public urination citations in Scranton.

But what about black heel marks?

Nice job media:

A statement from Woods' publicist and Health Central Hospital called the accident "minor," and said Woods was "admitted, treated and released today in good condition."

I'm hoping this is true, although I have not heard any "official" updates. I also heard that alcohol was not involved, but that the police are considering criminal charges. Any guesses on that one, or is it just more wild speculation by the media?

I read the police classify anyone taken to the hospital as serious "condition".

So using that criteria, I imagine not having a seat belt on in your driveway would warrant "charges".

I wondered why he was leaving his house at that hour.

While I like the idea of him wanting to be first in line at Wal-Mart/Target/etc, there are probably more logical reasons.

1) Out of diapers

2) out of milk

3) fight with the wife, left to cool off

There are more potentially nefarious options of course including that he is really a hit man or spy and was leaving on an assignment. ("I Spy" style).

I'm sure he'll be okay. You can alaways count on Tiger to make a great comeback after hitting a tree.

Is the hydrant considered out of bounds?

This is my guess. It's the only thing that could make him pissed enough to gun the car in the driveway!

Can you imagine, he's pissed and backs into the hydrant, is even more pissed and bumps the tree and cuts his face. Now he's near exploding.

They probably kept him there just long enough to cool off.

the tree huggers are looking for a settlement, so are the dogs

ABC is reporting that Tiger's wife heard the wreck, went out and busted out the back window of the SUV with a golf club to help get him out, and that he had cuts on his face and was drifting in and out of consciousness as he sat on the curb.

I'm not making this up, and that's about a near quote of what was scrolling on the bottom of the TV screen. I can imagine with facial lacerations, there was probably a good amount of blood and so he would look worse than he might actually have been.

Pics of his wife breaking out the window?

My guess is that Nordegren girl was breaking out the window first and Tiger gunned his Escy to get away pinballing off the hydrant and tree.

He should be O.K. His opponents are mostly white.

We're not saying you're making it up..... or at least we weren't until now

I read that.

The first thing most people do when they hear a minor car accident is to grab a golf club on the way out the door.

You've got to be kidding me.

Chances are, and this is my wife's theory, is that she already had the club in her hand and was chasing him down the driveway and in an attempt to get away he had the accident. It's also possible that the facial injuries came from the golf club and not the accident.

Hahahaha. Classic!
