Okay.

So first of all, I want to sincerely apologize for being away and slacking for so long on Rashan’s World.  It was Thanksgiving break…so I took a break.  This thing is like a baby.  It requires constant attention, or it will just cease to progress.  So, back to the story…

I’m sure that by now, many of you have already heard the news, but what in the world is up with this Tiger Woods thing?  I first heard mention of the gossip when I returned to school, and was doing my famous invisible golf club swing, practicing already for the summer!  Then someone was like, “Oh yeah.  That’s pretty messed up about Tiger.”  I had no idea.  So apparently, the only hard facts are that he crashed his Escalade into a fire hydrant and then into a tree, putting the SUV totally out of commission, and probably knocking himself unconcious.  Supposedly his wife scratched up his face, and was chasing after him with a golf club when he crashed.  She’s supposed to have been angry because he cheated with some classy lady from VH1’s awesome show, Tool Academy. “Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!”  Her name is Jaimee Grubbs.  And apparently one more woman, named Rachel Uchitel, is accused of having relations with Tiger.  Uchitel is a director of VIP services at some Manhattan club, and says she’s met Tiger Woods, but definitely did not have any sort of affair, or even real contact with him.  The other girl, Grubbs, however, just came out of nowhere and said that she and Tiger have been going at it for over a year.

I don’t know what the heck is the truth, but I’ll tell you this.  I certainly hope that none of this garbage is true, because I like Tiger Woods, and think that he’s a good guy.  He’s had a good image so far, and this, even if it is proved false, has already placed a stain on his career.  Click the link of Tiger and his daughter, Sam Alexis, to see Tiger’s personal statement on the incident at his website.

UPDATE on Tiger Woods accident.

Well, I’m going to take a guess that his rehab from knee surgery is going quite well! It was announced today via his Web site that Tiger’s wife is pregnant with their second child.

From the Associated Press:

Woods said on his Web site that Elin is expecting in late winter without being more specific on a due date.

He has not played since his U.S. Open victory in June, and two weeks later had reconstructive surgery on his left knee that put him out for the year. Woods’ first child, daughter Sam, was born the Monday after the 2007 U.S. Open.

“Elin is feeling great and we are both thrilled,” Woods said. “While my injury has been disappointing and frustrating, it has allowed me to spend a lot of time watching Sam grow. I can’t begin to tell you how rewarding it is being a dad and spending time with her and Elin.

From Reuters:

The couple’s first baby, daughter Sam Alexis, was born on June 18, 2007.

Woods has been out of action since winning the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines, California in June.

The 32-year-old American will be sidelined for at least the rest of the year after undergoing reconstructive knee surgery.

Tiger Woods recently won the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines despite a painful injury, and there was a beautiful little scene afterwards. Tiger was walking while holding his little 1-year-old daughter Sam Alexis Woods in his arms. Given the media crush and his leg injury, he decided to hand the girl over to his wife Elin Nordegren. Once the girl was in mom’s arms she immediately turned back to dad and reached for him, and Tiger took her back. It was a touching scene that brings back wonderful memories for any dad.

Tiger Woods said recently that it is his daughter Sam Alexis who has gotten him through his knee surgeries.Tiger also talks about the origin of Sam Alexis’ name:
VIA KANSASCITY:

This time, as Tiger rehabbed from arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and was forced to sit out for two months, he had Sam by his side.

“There’s no way I could have gotten through this without Sam being there,” Woods said. “Spending that much time off and away from training and trying to get better, Sam was absolutely incredible, and I had so much fun doing that. It took my mind away from the fact that I had a surgery done, and just watching her grow, walking, running now, it’s been just the greatest thing in the world.”

Earl Woods lives on in Tiger the father. And, by virtue of Sam’s name, the elder Woods lives on in her, too.

“My father had always called me Sam since the day I was born,” Tiger told reporters last year. “He rarely ever called me Tiger. I would ask him, ‘Why don’t you ever call me Tiger?’ He says, ‘Well, you look more like a Sam.’ ”
