Well, the Tiger has come out of his cave and finally offered some information regarding his recent accident, sex scandal, and indefinite leave from golf. Here are just a few bullet points I jotted down while watching the conference on TV:

• Tiger looked more nervous than I have ever seen before, including prior to his PGA debut.
• Calling out the media and asking for reporters to "leave my family alone" was definitely a highlight of the conference.
• Addressing Accenture in the form of gratitude was a little awkward to hear, but still handled nicely.
• Tiger seemed to get choked up at least twice during his statement, which went longer than I expected.
• From a local perspective, I could not help by laugh at the fact that Michael Jordan was in attendance, considering the scandals that man has been part of.
• Addressing the allegation of domestic violence was huge and definitely unexpected. I thought this was the issue that Tiger handled most appropriately.
• Referencing the allegations surrounding performance enhancing drugs was interesting as I did not expect him to even touch on the subject.
• Actually referencing the fact that he had "affairs" was also something I did not expect from Tiger and instead expected him to dance around the issue.
• The whole "believe in me" request at the end of his statement was a little weird.
• Not offering any indication as to when his return to golf might be was slightly surprising to me, although he did mention he would not rule out 2010.
