My take on the poll question

I didn't want to write a second blog on Tiger but with the news of him being dropped by a sponsor and another keeping him, it got me wondering... If it were up to me, would I sign Tiger Woods to be the face of my product/company?
My answer... Without hesitation, Yes Yes Yes!
Sure, Tiger may be down right now; he may have fallen farther from glory than any other sports icon, but Tiger will rebound. He's going to take some time off, let all the drama and stories and what nots die down and when the time is right, come back from his sabbatical and regain his role as one of the most dominant persons in the sports world. And when he does he's going to be the man that overcame self-inflicted adversity. (I can almost see the headline now; Tiger on the cover of every newspaper, the lead story on every search engine and sports website holding the trophy from the tournament he just won with the headline "Out of the Woods" or "He's baaaaaack"). And how great would it be for him to be wearing your product, drinking your sports drink or representing your company? I can even see a parallel to him regaining his place on top and the economy rebounding and Americans rising out of the depression, or something like that...
Bottom line, I'm not condoning what he did and feel that he is deserving of every bit of ridicule and off-color joke and slamming story that is written about him. All I'm saying is that if you had a chance to have him endorse your product when he was back on top then 'Just Do It'.
