4/29 Hero deserves a second chance?

Wang Chien-Ming was regarded by Taiwanese people as a national hero especially his achievements in baseball field. We were all proud to see his success abroad and proud to say he is a Taiwanese baseball player to our overseas business partners and friends. However, after he revealed his affair in USA with a girl, we know that he is just a normal man with fears, desire and other sensations. His hero image was broken into pieces in my mind and  I wonder shall I still support him? Fans on the websites have two completely different views toward his infidelity. Some people support no matter what he has done but some people like me have doubts on his personal behaviours.

Questions:

1. As a normal person, do you think Wang's wrongdoing deserves forgiveness? As a national hero, do you think Wang's wrongdoing deserves forgiveness?

2. When Tiger's sexual scandal broken out, he was chased by a crowd of media workers and news about his scandals appeared on the news for quite a while. On the contrary, Wang's news about his affair with a girl only appeared on the media for less than 3 days. What do you think of this phenomena?

3. Wang's wife chose to forgive Wang (at least the news reported that she chose to forgive him). For female members, if your partner betrays you will you choose to forgive him and why? For male members, if your wife betrays you what will you react to her infidelity?

4. Do you think we as a human being can forgive and "forget"?
