    Kobe knew the rules. And had access to multiple lawyers. He's been no saint in this...and will be left with hundreds of millions (or so). No pity from me.

    You should never have empathy with a multi millionaire with ego problems.

    I don't really care who he was cheating with. but if that bolded part is true, no wonder the management wanted to blow the team up. Also, even with the above said, if his paramour has something to do with a Kardashian, I think it is pretty clear who the main gossip might be and why he now finds himself in Dallas. The Lakers are done.

    Until they get Dwight Howard for Luke Walton.

    Or when they get the 1st overall pick in the 2014 draft, accuquired in the major trade that snet Eric Gordon and the Hornet's draft pick for a bag of Wise potato chips, a 2nd round draft pick, and David Stern's eternal thanks.

    Elin is Swedish and came from a ton of money. Name one time where she went out and trashed Tiger? You cant because she hasnt. Swedish people are typically very private people. I guarantee you that the last thing that she wanted was all of that attention.

    LOL, married to one and in Sweden right now. As someone who has been screwed during a divorce, I still find it stupid when people talk about how guys like Tiger and Kobe are getting hosed. They ****ed around a billion times! They are still going to be uber freaking rich! Elin is supposed to be really good people and not one to deserve what Tiger did to her, regardless of the money she received.

    read it in a magazine article some yrs back (probably The Economist)

    here's a list online that shows sweden #3.......there's no publication date or explanation for how the rankings are determined (eg. apparently in sweden a large percentage of couples never get legally married even though in a practical sense they are like married couples living together, so not sure if these stats would also take those breakups into account):

    She got 100 million for being tigers wife. He made her rich. Do you think any chance she can even get a 10th of that on her own doing whatever she did. Girls will leave for the most random of reason so I don't feel any sympathy for her.

    Her family was already wealthy. I still don't understand how it's cool that Tiger cheated like crazy and yet people make it out to be Elin's the bad person. If she had been the one that was unfaithful and then gauged him for money I could understand, but that doesn't seem to have been the case.

    Her family wasn't tiger wealthy. Who cares if she was wealthy like that makes a difference. Did she earn any of her families wealth? She basically got 100 million for being tiger's wife.

    Tiger was using her to portray this wholesome family image so I guess she earned her money for doing that?
