Someone getting injured serioulsy is moment to joke about? Figures coming from you I guess.... Its not like Tiger is a bad guy to even joke about. Especially if the news is true about the accident being life threatening.

wow, Its life threatening?

geez, I need to turn on the tv or radio..

It sure made it sound like it. They said Serious condition right now. Which I think would mean, life threatening. I could be wrong. But either way, it doesn't to be minor one by any means.

Well, I hope they are not obviously. I thought I read though that he just had some facial lacerations..

His airbags didn't deploy so the authorities believe he was going less than 30 MPH. I've heard facial lacerations. Scarface Tiger will be extra intimidating on Sundays.

Well, just saw the update myself. I guess it was more hype than substance. I was wrong there then. Seems like he is already been released. Boy, the Media hypes it up easily.. Call me suckered, but I am glad it wasn't serious, and still don't think you should joke about. But I guess I don;t have macabre sense of humor.

You guys DO need to lighten up....it's obvious you have no idea what "serious" means in medical parlance....he's NOT in critical condition and wouldn't be surprised if he's already out of the hosital or will be released shortly if he hasn't been.

The Jack comment is funny and if I think of some more, I'll post them as well.

Wonder why charges may be pending?

Busting out of the house at 2:25 a.m. and colliding twice with objects ... I can't help but think this has something to do with the recent news of his so-called mistress.

I don't think your reaction was much different from mine. Tiger is an athlete who is viewed not just good, but transcendent in his sport. He's had a squeaky-clean reputation and still has a lot of potential great years ahead. When someone of his stature is impacted by this, we tend to sit up and pay attention. As for our senses of humor, I struggled to find it funny, but I'm not calling anybody out over it. I really hope he's OK.

Not sure how one is in a one car accident right outside their residence and strikes a fire hydrant and tree.

I'm a Tiger fan and obviously hope he's ok, but this really sounds fishy.

The mayor said he was released from the hospital.





Joke cracking time.....

He's always had problems keeping his drives out of the trees.

how many life threatening situations can you be in involving a fire hydrant and a tree all going less than 33 mph?

ok, that was funny.

FHP said the crash is still under investigation. It said alcohol did not play a role in the crash, but that charges are pending.

Must've been the tryptophan in the turkey.


Hopefully he's ok and can make a full recovery. Thankfullly he didn't hurt anyone else.

UPDATE: Looks like tiger is OK...



Golf great Tiger Woods was injured in a car crash in Florida early Friday morning, authorities said.

Woods, 33, was taken to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee, Fla. after a single-car crash at 2:25 a.m. in which he hit a fire hydrant and then a tree, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

The patrol initially reported that Woods sustained serious injuries, but the hospital said that the golfer was treated and released Friday in good condition.

The wreck is under investigation and charges are pending, but it was not alcohol-related, the highway patrol said in its accident report. It was "unknown" if he was wearing a seatbelt.

According to the report, Woods pulled out of his driveway in his Cadillac SUV in the posh Isleworth community near Orlando when he struck the hydrant. He then plowed into the tree on his neighbor's property. He was taken to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee, Fla.


Woods was apparently traveling under 33 mph because the Escalade's airbags didn't inflate, the FHP said.

The golf champion was gearing up for his fifth Chevron World Challenge title. The $5.75 million tournament is scheduled for Dec. 1-6.

"It should be an exciting week for the fans, and I'm looking forward to competing," Woods said in a Nov. 25 article about the event on his Web site.

Orange County property records show his home is valued at $2.4 million.
