But he sure has displayed classic signs of one. Like I said in the other thread, anyone that thinks they can judge Tiger and say that he isn't a sex addict, well, they are just foolish and arrogant. Unless people are inside his brain and understand his thinking and his thought processs when it comes to this behavior, they really have no clue as to what they are discussing. It just makes some people feel better or morally superior to just flippantly judge others based on addictive behavior, all the while dismissing them as not really being an addict.

I got news for you Rand, addicts do not think like non-addicts.

The difference is I have sympathy for people who deal with alcoholism and drug addiction and obviously that is the root for some of the behaviors you dealt with. Since I don't think sex addiction is similar to those I think it actually is insulting to real addictions and their ramifications.

I definitely think gambling is addictive and can be destructive.

I am not a big "sex addict" believer but considering the lengths that people go to get it, it has to be at least in some cases to be addictive and destructive. Doesnt that fit Tiger to a tee? (pardon the pun)

Wow Obama is normal.

Last thing this alcoholic and addict needs is sympathy, please spare me.

That's fantastic news. I thought the Bucs would wind up paying him to leave.

Wonder if the Steelers had an opportunity to watch how pathetically inept this guy was last year...

An inaccurate, immobile plug standing behind a weaking O-line, no receivers and a below average running game... Last year's tape ought to serve notice as to what to expect in Pittsburgh this year.

As a Steelers fan it is very disappointing to see that Roethlisberger feels he can act the way he did. Hell if he wants to party why didnt he do it in the comforts of his house. He should realize he is a target and will be scrutinized due to the fact that he is in the NFL and makes a nice salary. Maybe the suspension will not only serve as a wake up call for Roethlisberger but every other NFL player. Congrats to Goodall for disciplining Roethlisberger. Goodall means business.
