Truth & Rumors: Tiger bites back at Brown

Tiger Woods took on Jim Brown in his own, understated way Tuesday, rebutting the football great's criticism that Woods is "terrible" on social issues.

Woods, who is hosting the AT&T National at Congressional Country Club, pointed to the Tiger Woods Foundation and its Learning Center, which received the bulk of the charitable proceeds this week. The Foundation's 2008 report claims it has reached an estimated 10 million kids since its inception in 1996, including the awarding of Earl Woods Scholarships.

"I think I do a pretty good job as it is, what we're trying to do with the Foundation...how many kids we've helped ...what we're trying to do not just here in the United States, but what my mom's doing in Thailand, all these different things that we've done," Woods said.

"And you know, I want to do it right and not just do it, but do it right."
