AT&T Hangs Up On Tiger Woods. Interesting Side Note - Charlie Sheen Also Not Allowed To Use The Phone.

Thumbnail image for tiger-woods-flexing.jpgAs we wrap up 2009, the financial fallout from several torrid affairs continues to haunt Tiger Woods. I hope Domino's Pizza is hiring - between what will surely be a costly divorce and the loss of numerous sponsors, Tiger might be needing a job! Details, via Gossip Cop

[AT&T has just hung up its affiliation with Tiger Woods. AT&T's logo used to prominently appear of Woods' golf bag, and was the title sponsor of a PGA event that he hosted this past July. But in light of his alleged infidelities, the telecom decided to drop Woods. The phone company joins the consulting firm Accenture in severing its ties with Woods. Meanwhile, other companies like Tag Heuer and Gillette have limited their marketing with the disgraced golfer.]

Meanwhile, we've got Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller Sheen. While the couple holds no company endorsements, they are also barred from the phone. Is Almond Joy looking for celebs to promote their brand? Almond Joy has nuts (and Mounds don't) - and these two would be freakin' nuts to try and reconcile after their massive Christmas Eve fallout. Details, once again from the awesome Gossip Cop

[Yesterday we said prosecutors would oppose the lifting of a restraining order that bars Charlie Sheen from seeing his wife Brooke Mueller, who he's accused on threatening with a knife. And we were right. Assistant District Attorney Arnold Mordkin put his money where his mouth is. Prosecutors filed a motion opposing the dismissal of the restraining order.

The prosecutor in the Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller domestic dispute case intends to fight the request from lawyers on both sides to dismiss the protection order that keeps Sheen from communicating with Mueller, OK! magazine is reporting.

Arnold Mordkin, Chief Deputy District Attorney in Pitkin County, Colorado, says, "In the case of domestic violence, we do want the victim to have a safety plan in place." The magazine also quotes Mordkin saying that as a matter of principle, "We always oppose lifting the protection order."

Judge James Berkley Boyd will hold a hearing on Monday morning at 10:30am, although Mordkin observed that it's not clear whether the hearing is to make a decision on the motion or merely to set a date for deciding. Mordkin explained that the protection order currently in place does NOT prevent Sheen from seeing his twin sons. It only prevents him from having direct contact with Mueller.]

Given that the new year is rapidly approaching, it looks like these folks will have no choice but to greet 2010 with a big ball of crazy.
