Shaun White Doesn't Judge Tiger Woods

With the whole world giving a collective eye roll to Tiger Woods' press conference, which aired Friday, Olympic gold medalist Shaun White is such a nice guy, he doesn't even pass judgement on Woods.

White, who  recently became famous for his Gold medal win at the 2010 Winter Olympics where he showed off his Double McTwist 1260 (3.5 rotations and two twists), thinks the world should cut Tiger a break.

"I don't think it takes away from his athletic side,"  White said.  "I'm still a big fan of him. Pretty soon we will all realize that he's still a great guy deep down and he just made some bad calls."

White said he caught a bit of Woods' apology where Woods apologized to his wife, and said, "I convinced myself that normal rules didn't apply. I felt I was entitled. I was wrong. I was foolish. I don't get to play by different rules."

"I don't think he knows how to totally express how he feels and really explain what was going on," White said. "I can understand, you say one thing and everybody jumps on it, so I think he's trying to pick his words very carefully and just apologize. I respect that."

What do you think? Is White being too easy on Woods? Or should we all lighten up a bit? More importantly,  who will be the next member of Team USA to get gold?  Get your Olympics Odds in the Bodog Sportsbook! Don't have an account? Join Bodog now.
