Latest Tiger Clippings, Barkley: "I think he is making a serious mistake."**
/Steve Elling has all of Charles Barkley's comments to a Philadelphia radio station about his take on Tiger's handling of the crisis:
Barkley, who has had more than a few notable run-ins with cops over the years, said Woods needs to stop hiding behind his spokespeople and man up, so to speak.
"I don’t want no PR person talking for me cause they don’t make it work," Barkley told WIP radio. "They aren’t going to make it better. I think he is really making a mistake in not talking to the cops and things like that. I think he is making a serious mistake.”
Emily Smith of the New York Post scores an exclusive interview with Rachel Uchitel about the National Equirer story linking her to Tiger Woods in which Uchitel denies the facts as presented in the story. Based on the comments and no mention of Gloria Allred's name, it sounds as if she is not representing Uchitel (I've emailed Allred for comment): **Gloria Allred responded: "She is still my client and my understanding is that this interview was conducted befoe she retained me. I have no comment."
"It's just dumb stuff. I was happy to answer any of their [the National Enquirer's] questions, but they didn't want to listen to me when I denied it. I look like a home wrecker and an a- -hole.
"And its horrible to Tiger's family. His wife must feel horrible. The worst part of it, it's not true.
"That's a horrible thing to read: 'Tiger's telling Rachel he loves her.' It's just so dumb.
"[The source of the story] is not even a friend of mine. I've met her twice in my life. I've got some really horrible things that I can say about her and her past. I am toying around if I should go after her, because she's not a credible source.
"This girl was never around me for any of the time she was saying she was. If I was having some big, lurid affair, I would not tell this girl. It's just ridiculous."
Meanwhile several sites are reporting that US Weekly is preparing to reveal another purported Woods affair and is claiming it will post a Noember 24 voicemail from him on Wednesday morning.
Radaronline has new images of Tiger's car under covers and apparently headed for storage.
