Title: Tiger Woods' Endorsement Deals Are Toast
Post by: Mega on December 10, 2009, 12:17:08 PM
Shit, now this may start f***ing with his deep pockets.

Tiger Woods has not been seen in a TV ad since Nov. 29, according to Bloomberg. The not-surprising news indicates that Woods’ deals with endorsers are in a state of disarray, with advertisers unable to capitalize on them.

And it’s a strong indicator that Woods will have extreme difficulty replacing them as clients, as the number of “mistresses” linked to him rose to 11. The harem includes such advertising-unfriendly characters as pron star Joslyn James, a restaurant waitress who likes rough sex in parking lots, and a woman who arranges affairs for the golfer, according to Deadspin.

Previously, Woods could have expected to take the Michael Phelps route. After the swimmer was photographed smoking a bong, he returned to the advertising scene about eight months later.

All of that is now in jeopardy.

Ad Age suggests — in an article with the unfortunate headline “Why Tiger Is Still the Best Gillette Can Get” — that advertisers will use the scandal as leverage against him, lowering the prices they pay him and squeezing him for contract givebacks. David Schwab, VP-managing director of Octagon’s celebrity acquisition division, is quoted:

“Not only does it affect Tiger, it affects the entire industry. When celebrities do things that negatively affect a corporate deal, the legal terms typically end up more in the corporation’s favor the next time. So if a celebrity is paid $10 as an endorser with no morals clause, the company might come back next time and say ‘We’ll do it for $5 and a morals clause.’”

Morals clauses are standard contract terms that allow advertisers to renege on their deals with celebrities if the stars behave badly and ruin their ad plans — as Tiger has done. Woods will never be able to sign a major deal again without a strict morals clause.

Yeah, that's where he f***ed up. He actually gave meat to the story by doing that. Now any Ho that he ever looked at twice can come out with their own freaky tale.

Somebody done told him wrong. Doesn't he know the celebrity code, deny everything while your fixers are working in the background doing damage control (i.e paying people off, threatening their lives etc) until u absolutely can't anymore, then apologise and cry on TV.

Well!! the great thing about being Tiger is he can hide for 2 years not playing or practising Golf,and when he wins that one tournament hes back at number 1. Then you wonder what were his competitors  up to?

I COPIED THIS FROM ANOTHER SITE:

I'm sure unless you live in a hole you have seen that the internets are on fire with the drama that is Tiger Wood's life. It all started with a suspicious accident in his upscale neighbourhood that seemed to have shaken more than some leaves off a tree because a few days later the women began to creep out of the woodwork. Why the big deal about all the different women? It's due to the uber private life he led previously and squeeky clean image he had been keeping; I mean if it were someone else ie Charles Barkley, the media wouldn't have shifted a lens.

Where Tiger went wrong was with his silence. The longer you keep quiet the more the rumours swirl and the worse it looks for you, he should have learned from people like David Letterman and Hugh Grant who were quick to admit their wrongs, apologize and keep it moving. But what was Tiger's number 1 problem? He went about his extra curricular activities the wrong way. Disclaimer: I in no way shape or form condone infidelity during marriage. The information given below is for research purposes only.

1. If you are going to get a mistress; trade up! - One look at Tiger's wall of shame and none of the girls other than maybe the club hostess, Rachel can hold a torch to his wife. For the potential trouble you are looking out for stepping out, at least make sure it is worth it. But on the other hand, Tiger Woods is known for being awkward socially, he actually had someone reach out to his wife to ask her on a date when they first met instead of doing it himself! So with that lack of game, it seems that he went with women where the statement,"do you know who I am?" was enough to get things started.

2. Leave behind as little evidence as possible! - I know for a public figure like Tiger Woods this is a bit harder but according to media reports what set things off was text messages on his phone, that and the leaked voicemails. Dude, this is where you either get a prepaid phone that never goes home with you, plus you never leave voicemails. Since the phone isn't registered under your name even if the texts get out, that leaves you with some wiggle room when it comes to deniability.

3. One at a time! - It's hard enough to manage two women (one wife and a mistress), so throwing in all these other women into the mix even if they are one offs is asking for trouble. What's worse is that he was seeing these women on regular occasions. If you are juggling all those balls, you are bound to drop some.

4.Escorts - The difference between an escort and a regular chic is that escorts get paid extra to shut up and leave. It is usually in their best interest to do so unless they are busted which is another story. Yes that route doesn't appeal to most men but if you have as much to lose as Tiger does, it's a good alternative. Many stars and leaders go that route, Elliot Spitzer anyone?

5. Clarify The Situation - Latest reports from one of the mistresses have her saying how Tiger said he would leave his wife for her and such. The chances of that ever happening were one in a million, Tiger's clean image was his brand and I'm sure he wasn't in a rush to jeopardize that (before the blow up). Had he let this chic know her place as a side chic and maybe even let her know that she wasn't the only side chic, I think there wouldnt be the rush to expose as there is now. Many of these chics are rushing to the media as they didn't know they were not alone so are trying to reap as much fame as they can as possible.

Anyway that's a whole lot of shoulda woulda coulda, what's done is done; let's sit back and enjoy the show.

One last open question to all which you can answer in the comments, I was talking to some female relatives about relationships and they are of the opinion that married men should not have single male friends. Their point of view is that they do not have the same goals and further more that singles can lead the married men astray. I countered that unlike women men do not base their friendships on the relationships in their lives but on shared interests, I can have the same sports, hobbies, financial goals as a married man and wouldn't mind spending time together sharing them. That is why it is hard for men to bond if they dont have a shared activity to bond over as we just don't sit and talk the same way women do. Also I know plenty of no good married men who lead their married friends astray. What do you think ladies, single friends any good for married men? Time to return to regular life, hasta manyana!

Lol. Panic, i find your view on relationships extremely interesting. (From previous posts)
Would you ever get married? And for what reasons?

I think its only fair that his laundry gets hung out to dry. If you live in the public domain, its only fitting that both your triumphs and failures recieve equal attention.
I think this guy is simply an idiot. Especially given his high profile. He's a simp. And all the money in the world cant make him any less of the chump that he is.

Ok maybe he's not such a lame any more! He had the decency to make a sex tape! Thats awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

Woods: Sex tape, love child?

2009-12-10 14:00

Windermere - A disgraced Tiger Woods is terrified that the worst news is yet to come – that he fathered love children with his mistresses and his many liaisons may have been caught on tape.

The golf great had wild unprotected sex with a string of mistresses, sources tell The Hollywood Gossip website - and now he fears claims that his out-of-control sexual proclivities may have produced children.

“That would be the final straw for his wife – and Tiger knows it,” said an insider. “But there is definitely more than one woman out there who could come forward to say she had his children.”

Meanwhile, Woods's wife Elin Nordegren is said to be furious after being put at risk of contracting HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.

To make matters even worse, the 33-year-old sports star is reportedly worried that a lurid sex tape could appear and wreck his desperate attempts to cling onto the wreckage of his marriage to his ex-model wife.

Among the places Tiger's mistresses claim to have had sex with the golf star are his Florida mansion and a series of hotels – all places that have security cameras.

At least one of the women (Jaimee Grubbs) also shot sex videos of romps with other boyfriends, sparking a damage control scramble from Tiger's camp.

The National Enquirer website has received a call that one woman who had an affair with Woods in June 2007 aborted his child.

What is the problem if they're all white, it's a free world we live in. If he likes them that way it's his choice, stop being petty, like Julius said.

Anyway, since when is Tiger Woods black. He's only refered to as black because it's easier than this below:

Tiger Woods was born from the 18-year marriage of Earl Woods and his first wife, Barbara Woods Gray. Earl, a retired United States Army lieutenant colonel and Vietnam War veteran, was of mixed African American (50 percent), Chinese (25 percent) and Native American (25 percent) ancestry. Kultida (nee Punsawad), originally from Thailand, is of mixed Thai (50 percent), Chinese (25 percent), and Dutch (25 percent) ancestry.

This makes Woods himself one-quarter Chinese, one-quarter Thai, one-quarter African American, one-eighth Native American, and one-eighth Dutch.[9] He refers to his ethnic make-up as “Cablinasian” (a portmanteau he coined from Caucasian, Black, (American) Indian, and Asian)."

The power of Tiger. Wow, no matter what he is going thru, the infuence is still there.

London - Sales of a little-known British scientist's book have soared after it was pictured in Tiger Woods' crashed car, he said Thursday.

"Get a Grip on Physics" by Doctor John Gribbin was photographed in a footwell of the car after the US golf superstar smashed it into a fire hydrant and a tree outside his Florida home last month.

Within days of the pictures going round the world, the book's best-seller ranking on Internet retailer Amazon.com shot up from 396,224th position to 2,268th.

Unfortunately for Gribbin, an astronomy expert at the University of Sussex in southern England, the book was almost out of print, but the publicity has boosted sales of second-hand copies online too.

Wifey 'bout to get paid by a rival sponsor. She's on the hustle now.

And while advertisers were busy distancing themselves from the scandal-hit golfer, his wife was said to be "very close" to clinching her own lucrative endorsement deal with sportswear company Puma, the arch-rival of Nike, her husband's biggest sponsor.

Puma said the Swedish mother of two was "a good brand fit" for its new Swedish-inspired clothing line, Tretorn.

So, dude spent years working long and hard at a white man's game, so he could do what all men work long and hard to do. Impress shallow women and pound the crap out of them.

The only reason we all wish we could have money and drive a fancy car and all that shit, is to impress chicks. If it weren't for chciks wanting nice shit, I would be happy living in a hut made from horse shit with walls coloured in crayon. Instead I salve so I can smell and look nice so I can get poundage.

I blame the media for making it seem like he was wrong to finally enjoy the spoils of having to play such a boring a** game. Who wouldn't catch some of the free a** being trown at him from all directions? Who wouldn't accept some Joslyn a** (granted,she isn't one of my favourites, but I would still do her)?


There are better things to write about, but in order to keep the ma**es ignorant of these things, we ruin a young rich man's life by spalshing his normal behaviour on the front pages and making it seem like he is at fault while babies are being killed and raped and our state coffers are being bled dry.

Hegemony is the name of the game.

Well seems Tiger's sponsors will stand by him, Nike is standing by him too- afterall their motto is "Just do it!"

SMH @ AL Sharpton ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;DWhat does this guy do for a living?

The Rev. Al Sharpton held a press conference today to blast Tiger Woods for the lack of diversity among his mistresses. Sharpton claims that the lack of African-American women among Woods’ harem will have a negative affect on the black community, specifically young black girls.

“Why is it that a man who calls himself black can’t bring himself to cheat on his wife with a black woman?” said Sharpton, speaking to a group of supporters in Harlem . “What does it say to young black girls everywhere when you pa** them over? Shame on you, Tiger Woods. What would your daddy say?”

Sharpton, who has long championed taking black women as mistresses, said that today’s black athletes need to stop neglecting black women when it comes to extramarital affairs, and should follow the examples of positive black role models such as Jesse Jackson and Martin Luther King, Jr., both of whom cheated on their wives with black women. Sharpton also stressed that cheating with African-American women would help the black community financially by giving black girls the chance to sell their stories to tabloids and gossip magazines.

Added Sharpton, “I’m not asking you to not cheat on your wives, I’m just asking you to give back to youhttp://www.celebjihad.com/celeb-jihad/al-sharpton-blasts-tiger-woods-for-lack-of-mistress-diversityr own community
