"Deny deny deny."

"Limit your exposure."
Oops, too late!

if you believe it, it's not a lie - Oh wait, that's George Castanza

Don't date porn stars?

"Disappear for weeks at a time" and "lie to everything about everybody" as per Don Draper's Guide to Women (from SNL) hehe

Now, let's see if Don Draper can foresee the future w/all this modern technology; he would say:

Tiger, you need to change your stripes, firstly by not using your cell phones in connection w/your lady friends. Secondly, divorce stay single.

Hi everyone!

I miss Mad Men!! And, my fellow Maddicts!

This is a great thread...

My guess is Don would say: "Were we separated at birth?"

user-pic

Hi ther 60'schild! I know what you mean I miss all you Maddicts too! Hey everybody!

I think Don would say what's the difference between Tiger and Santa Claus? Answer: Santa only has 3 ho, ho, ho's. :-( Sorry I just heard that baaaad joke today..... my apologies...

For Tiger - too late to deny. Too many allegations out there to deflect. Take some time off to get yourself accustomed to the fact that as long as you are a public figure, little that you do will be private. Now that these indiscretions are out there, your public persona is forever changed. Just play your best, be the best father you can be and move on. The difference between Tiger and Don is that Don's personal problems are just that. The world doesn't care what Don has or hasn't done. Just Betty and the kids, really. Don can either win Betty back and carry on much as before, or have the divorce, make the best of it (insofar as the kids are concerned), and get on with his career. Except for the tendency to stray from their marriage partners and a fierce desire to succeed at their chosen professions, there is little in common between Don and Tiger. Don's life is still pretty much a private thing while Tiger's is considered "News."

Don to Tiger:
Say what she wants you to say so you can get back to work. Then move forward.

And, by the way, only have one mistress at a time and keep her for months. That way you limit your exposure.

Polar Bear that was a great Top 10 list.

"Enlist in the Army, volunteer to go to Afganistan, wait for an officer to come to an unfortunate and grusome demise, assume his identity and start all over again. Hey, look what it did for my career!"

Polar Bear is funny, indeed. And Grumpyoldguy
analyzed it perfectly.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

Merry Chanukahdad, Happy Winter Solstice, and Joyous Buddha's Enlightenment to all. And to all, a good night.

Tiger, if you want public relations counseling, call a PR person, not an ad man. They play different circuits.

How 'bout a nice Ad man's cliche,

"You can fool some of the pepole,
some of the time, but you can't
fool all of the pepole, all of the time."

Well, I really like Tiger and I totally support him. I am a man so I know how he is feel. Well, I do not known who was that porn star, maybe Bree Olson or who, but I know that such porn starts are very sexy and I also would like to spend the night with such one... Please, don't say that it is horrible or something similar. It is only a my own opinion and I think that people should try everything in their life. It is the philosophic of my life. Thanks a lot for the ability to express my own opinion.

Well Tiger definitely made his mistakes by choosing the decisions that he did but sometimes all of us fall into a pit, it's like getting that damn auto insurance that your paying for too much now.

Ha, great topic. I like Max's idea. Looks like Tiger is on his way back, though.

We haven't really heard much from Tiger these days. I wonder if New York SEO his days are long gone?
