Gloria Allred...STFU and go fuck yourself.
Jeeeeeeeeeeeez, how much limelight can this woman hog!?!?!?! Now...she is representing Tiger Wood's KINDERGARTEN teacher???? And why???? Because the teacher says Tiger tells a story about the first day of class that is not true...and she has been emotionally traumatized and wants money from Tiger because of this.

GMAFB...:eyes:

Some times...I am sooooooooo embarrassed by other members of my profession.

13. I don't like Tiger either, but...
...I loathe Gloria Allred!

She does more damage than she does good, IMO.

16. I just read something about the incident. And the teacher may have a case.

24. I especially loathe a media that is desperate to keep this story going
so the lazy fuckers won't have to go out and find real news to report.

2. You are not in the same profession.

You practice the second oldest.

3. Excuse me? If he's lying, I think she has a good case
Maybe before the Tiger Myth was shattered, she was afraid no one would take her seriously. And I have to say, this sounds like another case of teacher bashing.




~"In the book The Wicked Game, Woods says, "I became aware of my racial identity on my first day of school, on my first day of kindergarten. A group of sixth graders tied me to a tree, spray-painted the word 'nigger' on me, and threw rocks at me. That was my first day of school. And the teacher really didn't do much of anything."

.........

“Ms. Decker who has devoted her life to teaching young children, was mystified as to why Tiger would make such a serious and explosive allegation.

Ms. Decker believes that no such incident ever occurred to Tiger Woods while he was under her care as a kindergarten pupil on the first day of class.

Further, neither Tiger nor his parents nor anyone even reported the alleged racial incident to her or the administration. Therefore Ms. Decker contends that the statement that ‘...and the teacher really didn’t do much of anything’ is completely untrue, since such an incident never occurred and was never reported to her by anyone while Tiger was a student at the school.”

And, Allred says it’s time to set the record straight, “Under the circumstances where a dedicated teacher has been unfairly slandered and maligned for motives that can only be speculated about, we think it is time for Tiger Woods to do the right thing and retract his statement." ~

4. So...she went to Gloria Allred because she has a valid case?
Sorry...but if Gloria is involved, the case most likely is bogus. I have seen too much of her bullshit all the years I practiced. To call Gloria a publicity whore is an insult to publicity whores.

JMHO

6. She's the one who figured out Tim Tebow's BS story
about his mother in the Philippines. Yes, she seeks publicity - as do many people in the legal and medical professions - but that doesn't mean that the teacher is wrong. Sorry, my dad was a teacher, and I get pissed when people blame them for everything. For one thing, if his story was even true, it should have been the sixth grade teachers who should have done something.

8. Gloria Allred is SHIT in a courtroom...
...the woman had less than -0- clue on what lawyers do. She could not explain the the judge what the hell a 352 objection was. (Any Cal atty knows WTF that is.) I could not care less if she figured out 1,000 people who are lying. The point is that she is an embarassment to most of us who really are lawyers.

You may hear about the cases that she supposedly cracks...what you DON'T hear about is the people whose cases she fucks up beyond all repair.

21. The teacher BELIEVES that no such incident took place?
Just because it wasn't reported to her doesn't mean it didn't happen. If she knows for a fact that such a thing didn't happen, why doesn't she DENY it rather than not "believe" it?

:crazy:

11. Yep...
...Glo dug her up and according to the articles, the woman could not wait to run off at the mouth at the press conference. Press conference...clue #2...clue #1, Gloria Allred is involved.

Oh, yeah, the incident of the supposed lie was done in 2005. WTF statute does Glo think has not run by now????

What a bunch of shit. Personal injury, emotional distress is one year, fraud/misrep is three.

So...I say Gloria is doing this for no other reason than to get her name in the news.

14. Traumatized? That's just plain nonsense.
Someone looking for a few bucks. And Allred doing the same thing.

This is one of those cases where the claimant should be penalized for bringing suit. If I ruled the world, the lawyer would also be penalized.

15. I am betting there is NO suit that will be filed. The Statute ran a long time ago.
This is just for the publicity. This supposed lie took place in a publication which was made in 2005. What the hell statute she thinks has not barred the action at this point -- I have no clue.

Sheeeeeeeeesh!

17. I like Gloria - she has guts.
I don't care if she seeks high profile cases - good for her. More should be willing to get in the game and not worry about what others in the legal profession will think of them. She will represent a stripper or whatever when no one else will.

Go Gloria.

19. Tiger's story was obviously bullshit
and you've have to be almost helplessly stupid to buy it in the first place, but it's not grounds for a lawsuit. It's just a dumb, trite, cliched lie told by an absolutely unimportant little man who is very good at hitting a ball into a hole in the dirt with a stick.

She's a parasitic whore.

23. Gloria has been tap dancing on my last frazzled nerve for years!
She is Hollywood's ambulance chaser... she does indeed cast a horrid light on her profession! It was the make-over, I'm convinced! In the 70's, if I recall correctly, she represented many women in sexual discrimination cases. That's honorable enough. Lately, however, she's been an embarrassment.

At some point in the late 80's/early 90's, she got a make-over... new hair, make-up, and clothes... and her clientele changed as well.

I'm sick of seeing her.
