Agreed, but then again, it appears you had better upbringing by your parents then she did.
FWIW, I was just suggesting that perhaps she didn't know any better. Even still though, I always taught my son when he was growing up, that you have to live with the choices you make, and if you make a bad one, you have to live with the penalty for it.
Never once in our house, when he was growing up, could my son use the excuse "But so in so thought it up, not me ... I just went along with it". Simply because he knew that because he made the choice to go along with it, I figured he was just as guilty as the person who thought it up in the first place, simply because he ALWAYS had a choice to turn and walk away. As such, he always had to suffer the penalty of making the wrong choice, regardless if he thought of it, or someone else did.
Same thing here, Tiff made a wrong choice (even if it was as simple as trusting the wrong person for advice), and now she has to pay the piper. Even still though, I don't think it's right that PokerNews is now trying to save face themselves, after pimping her up in the press the last few days, and now decides that since she's no longer in the running for the November 9, that they can feed her to the wolves so to speak, and now go after her like they are planning on doing.
