Yes, you have a strong case if we are only talking about sports, actors or musician/singers. However people don't simply strive to become President so they can get oral sex from an intern in the White House. Hoochies who are attracted to famous/infamous, rich and successful people allow it to happen. Politicians, Technological gurus(Bill Gates) or Real Estate Tycoons don't get into the biz because it is cool to ladies. Yet, they are still there. 50/50

Great at his job. On the verge of being greater than all the others before him at the same job. They are not talking about all facets of his life. Just one part in particular. The same reason these women were willing to have affairs with him.
Yeah, I would say greatness!

What is wrong with Japanese men. It is like watching a nature special. I'm little glad the population is decreasing somewhat. Maybe it will weed out the socially inept.

Work hard and play even harder!
I'm pretty sure his game off the green came after he became famous. I don't even think he really tried to be player but it just worked out that way. Look, at the woman coming forward. They are all groupies and are now trying to cash in. One of the woman's own mother has said she is quite aggressive when meeting celebrities. She dated both A-Rod and Jeter. Sound like Hoochies!!!
Both Tiger and these women are at fault. They knew his situation and pursued anyway. If he wants to change then he has the right to try. If he stays away for a long time then it will be a detriment to the sport. Hopefully he will come back and be just as good as ever.
I know there are others who hope indefinite means for good. One reason is others want to win more tournaments like the best second place winner of all time.(Mickelson) Has he ever been ranked #1 in the world? Especially because Tiger is getting close to breaking records which is the last refuge to those who want to keep this sport segregated and elitist.
Giving him his space for awhile. I think in time his own competitiveness and pressure from those who need him professionally will convince him to return.
I hope works things out with the family because they should be his priority.

I think it is quite apparent that they let anybody in the police force. All these immature guys living in mandatory men only dormitories with all this power.
He tried to hit on her and when it didn't work he tried to hit on her again. I believe he will get a slap on the wrist and next time be more careful speech. Sad!!!!

Terence Lee looks like many average people could kick his butt! I have ran into quite a few Japanese folks who have overexaggerated their experience overseas. The folks in Japan just take their word for it because they don't know any better. Then they milk for all its work.
He probably uses a fake name so when people do kick his butt it hopefully won't get back to the people he know.

"A Nation of Children" are beginning to bite themselves in the butt. They are finally starting to acknowledge something that foreigners have known for a longtime. There are a lot of immature people in this country. I believe it is something that is taught.
On the other side, it seems more people are taking advantage of Japanese cultural tendencies to avoid confrontation or embarrassment. As times get rough more and more will be working the system.

How much you wanted bet he is unemployed and without a girlfriend? And his excuse for punching little girls is he is upset because he has no job so he can't get a girlfirend or at least pay for some company.

I don't see any of them doing well in next year's competition. The only winner here is Ms. Ligron. She is making a killing off the dreams of these women. The only thing Ms. Ligron is really doing for them is helping the ladies find a rich sugar daddies.

@DarkKnightNine
Why don't we put up your star power name and find out how good of a dancer you really are?
The fact of the matter is for someone to say a person is not good dancer and when they are famous for it is a little strange. Especially when it is done by someone who is not as famous for the same area of expertise.
By the way working in Japan doesn't necessary mean you are a success. There are quite of few success stories in Japan who careers wouldn't carry much weight in their home country.
Yes, silence is the best option sometimes.

Ah so,
I understand the what the nose represent. What I am talking about is the origins of the tengu. The tengu in Japanese myth is related to more than just sexual acts. No one has yet to address or even prove the claims by several ryu that their techniques were taught to their founders by tengu. What is your answer to that?
People have also not addressed the idea that Christians claim that their book is the truth. They travelled and spread Christianity. They never thought the connection is this places have influenced Christianity. Alot of these stories are alot older than Christianity. Christians borrowed them from others.

DcikMorris,
How do you know he had realtions with the young boy. The father of the child who sued MIchael Jackson committed suicide not to long after Michaels death.
You ever thought it was because the man felt guilt for ruuin this man's reputation. Especially since you or the others know for a fact that he did it.

@Misery
Japanese noses aren't always small and petite. Like someone else said if he was a foreigner then we would all know. They also don't all have flawless skin or even like sushi ;)

They are actually considered Mongoloid = Ainu. They are closer connected to Native Americans than Caucasians.
"Scholars have advocated various theories about the origin of the Ainu people. The theories include the Caucasoid (Caucasian) Theory, the Mongoloid Theory, the Oceania Race Theory, the Old Asian Race Theory, and the Solitary Race Theory. Some scholars have recently advocated the following hypothesis into which the Mongoloid Theory has developed. Mongoloid peoples once were of two types : Southern Mongoloid and Northern Mongoloid. Before the Jomon Period (several tens of thousands of years ago), the Southern Mongoloid started moving northward and settled the Japanese archipelago, including Okinawa, over a long period of time. Later, the Southern Mongoloid played a major role in the Jomon Period throughout Japan. However, in the Yayoi and Tumulus Periods, the Northern Mongoloid came across the sea to Japan in great numbers. The ethnic Japanese (non-Ainu) are the people who have evolved rapidly through the strong influences of these migratory processes. On the other hand, the Ainu in Hokkaido and the Tohoku region and the Ryukyu people in Okinawa are the ones who have hardly affected by this process."

I don't know about whether these people were Christian or Jewish. I do know this: The 2nd millennium BC Tarim mummies in China were found with red and blond hair. Which means people were traveling around more than most people realize. Most likely these were all trade routes or hubs. Probably created after the great campaigns launched by some of the greatest leaders in history. Religious zealots are probably just trying to take the credit.

The tengu was also reported to have taught the founders of several major Japanese martial traditions. Some schools started using certain techniques that weren't common in Japan but was more common in other parts of the world. It was also said to have been the teacher of the Ninja.
UM!!!!

This is nothing new. I have been saying this since I came to Japan. Hell if you look at the image of the Tengu. It is a caricature of the Japanese view of foreigners. Evil beings with long noses and none Asian features. In almost all cultures when the deities of that culture have a human form they always look the people of that culture. It is unheard of to have them look like people they hadn't seen a half a millennia before they arrive.
It is like people who believe Jesus was a Caucasian male because the first picture of him Europe showed up over 400years after his death. Europeans never saw or met Jesus so how do they know? They didn't they made him in their own image and perpetuated the image. The artist who is famous for the Jesus portrait was known for using real people as models in all of his religious art. Images of Jesus before European art all show him as a dark skinned male. Images that were around during the time of his life.
The point is Japan like the rest of Asia had contact with the west. Whether it was along the silk road or during the conquering of nations. Throughout history great leaders from Africa, Europe and Asia at some point conquered most of the known world. (Except Afghanistan) During that time mixing had to have taken place. Japan also has a pyramid like Africa, S. America and Myanamar and other places. Got to be a connection.
I think a lot of the information about Japan being influenced from other people is usually ignored because it will contradict their image of a unique culture mostly protected from outside influence.

I will Koki his credit. He does have some skills. Unfortunately, he has been fighting almost all loser or boxers past their prime. This has given him invincible complex. He would get killed if he fought a major fighter from overseas. Luckily Naito, takes his fights seriously and train properly to win. I only hope his age hasn't caught up to him.
