Celebs are split on whether Tiger Woods should be punished for his indiscretions, and they've taken to Twitter to share their opinions on the pro golfer -- who said today that he "let my family down" for having an extramarital affair.

Tell Us What You Think
87John Mayer is being IRONIC. Does it have to be explained? Dad with mistress ... complains son has just lost role model in Tiger Woods ... Dad really supposed to be son's best role model ... ARRGHGHHH! Yeesh, what's wrong with our school system, it teaches you to a Grade 5 reading level then quits.
Pat. John ISN'T MARRIED. That's why it's ok for him to bone anyone who wants to bone with him. Completely different story on a completely different planet.
Mayer is no better than Woods. Mayer just like Woods has the money to cover his tracks. I'm sick of John Mayer phony pr team. This is a narcissistic clown. He is so pathetic and disgusting.
Solange, really??---I think you should ESTABLISH A CAREER first before you start commenting on other peoples'!! You are the female version of Ray J...
@Lisa, I think John Mayer was being his usual sarcastic self..I don't think you should take what he said literally hon'...he's not illiterate, sarcasm doesn't translate well over twitter and the internet, that's all. John, when will you learn this and also to STFU on matters that don't concern you?--Love Ya, But You Can Be A Clueless Dick of the highest order sometimes!
I odn't even understand Mayer's comment. He's not married. I guess he's commenting on the people who are being hypocritical about Tiger - but it came out all kinds of illiterate, confusing and clumsy. Learn to write and express better dude. ------- illiterate is the ability to read. Has nothing to do with writing
P.S. Having accountability in place on purpose made their union even stronger. It's not a sign of weakness. Being aware of the temptations and courageously fighting against them with a team (friends, family members, accountability partners) is a sign of strength and maturity and wisdom.
To 1:38am Anonymous: Precisely. Rev. Graham knows that we are ALL fallible (including himself) and has put an accountability team in place to protect himself and his wife and family to honour their life together. The nature of his job(preach at crusades, spiritually advising presidents etc.)called him away from home for many days/weeks at a time over many years. Relationships of any kind take work--time,proactivity, intentionality etc. People who work away from home(actors,sports greats etc.) need to choose to make an even GREATER effort to work on their marriages and protect them from other people(women/men) who don't value a person's marriage vows and seek to satisfy temporary longings and think only of themselves.
Yea Nene someone understands what John Mayer is saying. He is mocking those who are judging Tiger because over half of them are having affairs too and then having their children think that Tiger dispointed them when fathers should be their childs role model and Tiger is just a great golfer Tiger has not done anything to us that should change our opinion of him. John people who read gossip magazines must not read anything esle they don't want to have to think about what a smart witty statement means!
John Mayer pleasseeeeee........take a good look in the mirror buddy before you start throwing stones
John Mayer calling out Tiger for screwing = joke of the century
Let's leave them alone and give them their privacy. That is what most of you would want if ever in the same situation.
A) Tiger Woods is no more of a "role model" than anyone else just because he's an athlete. B) John Mayer is one to be talking about somebody being a womanizer. Although I don't get what women see in this guy anyway. Not cute, his music is boring, and he's full of himself. He's the only one who really cares what he thinks.
you people are such idiots. mayer is obviously being extremely sarcastic. what a bunch of tools
John Meyer, you are such a shameless pig to open your mouth on matters of love and fidelity when we all know and concur that you are the worst piece of slime in the male human race.How dare you pick-up a stone and try to cast it at Tiger Woods? The man is an angel compared to you.He started these affairs because he is unhappy and is regrets having married the worst woman he could ever come across who practices domestic violence on him.None of his former exes has come forward that he ever cheated, so he is entitled to his personal sins as a very clean life of following rules can be boring.John Meyer, go to hell and go back to your nut-hole because no one knows you or gives a hoot about your opinion.Tiger is still a role model, and much hotter than you.Even without the money,he still could have got a much better babe than Elin.And if you study his past relationships, they've been all blondes, i guess he is getting tired of that trend and wants to try some brunette in his life.Overall, Tiger we back you to divorce that Elin chick, she is a wierdo and fake through and through.
I think everyone just needs to leave this family alone to work things out. He made some HUGE mistakes, that hopefully he learned from, and has realized what in front of him is the most important in the world, his wife and kids. I wish him & his wife all the best, and I hope they can work things out for their family!.
He made mistakes. No need to crucify him. The tabloids and every entertainment show on the tube is doing that 24/7. I wonder how Mr. Mayer would feel if he was in the same situation. This is a personal issue and regardless what you think of him right now, he derserves privacy to try and work this out with his family. Who made us judge and jury. If he loses sponsors because of it, then so bit it. A lesson learned. Who makes these movie stars and atheletes role models? It is not their job to live up to some unrealistic expectations which the public or media dictates. He's human. He made mistakes. Give him some privacy to work it out.
Nobody lives in a glass house.... As bad as it is for Tiger's Family it is nobody's business but Tiger and his family....He is the same person that he was before, nobody has a right to judge.... there is only one person that you have to answer to and that is GOD.... I'm pulling for Tiger and his family. Sure is funny when someone is doing great and has done all of the good things that Tiger and many others have done everyone is patting him on the back, but as soon as someone has a weak moment and slips here comes everyones hateful comments, maybe if more people looked in there on back yards this world would be a better place (hint hint John Mayer)
Julie you took the words right outta my mouth!!!
Who is John whats his name talking about, as ugly as he his and he has dated some of the most beautiful women and he can't even get that right. Maybe instead of beautiful women he should be dating beautiful men
