Tiger Woods (Official Thread)

Should uh, probably stay away from cars around national holidays...

I was going to say he should stay away from Swedish women or anything Swedish.

We don't know the whole story yet.

Maybe he got tanked on Absolut.

While he was driving at 3 AM. Yeah, sure.

Sucks, driving used to be one of the great parts of his game.

Police Filmed Tiger Woods DUI Debacle

Two breath tests recorded Woods’s blood alcohol content at .000, indicating that he was likely incapacitated due to his ingestion of narcotics.A Jupiter Police Department report notes that the 41-year-old athlete was asleep at the wheel of a running black Mercedes when a patrolman discovered him stopped in the roadway around 2 AM Sunday.

Having used Percocet for an injury years ago I know they can send you buzzing, which is why a combination of pills including them would make me think twice about being out in the middle of the night. There's something missing from this story. Might he have been trolling the streets to satisfy his other seemingly-uncontrollable urges?

Opiate addiction is a serious. I'd imagine with all his nerve and back pain he's been taking them for a while now.

Off topic, a good film from Chris Bell of Bigger, Stronger, Faster fame about opiate addiction is "Prescription Thugs". It's worth the rental.

if one of the medications he takes is ambien, then, yes, it is quite reasonable.

His life imploded. He has gone from the top to someplace that is hard to describe. He will never catch Jack Nicklaus. I hope that he finds peace.

That was over a long time ago. And since that seemed to be his singular focus in life (the secks was filler), none of this is surprising.

What is Tiger Woods up to these days?

The report says the five different drugs that were traced in his system were: Hydrocodone, an opioid pain medication; Hydromorphone, another type of painkiller; Alprazolam, an anxiety drug also under the brand name Xanax; Zolpidem, a sleep drug also under the brand name Ambien; and Delta-9 carboxy THC, which is found in marijuana.

You were saying something about "unexpected reactions"?

Oh, you were finished?

Well, allow me to retort;
