ESPN still carrying 1st and 2nd round coverage?
Please leave Chris Berman out of your golf telecasts.
Love the guy doing NFL pregame, but his schtick doesn't
belong in Golf.

'Cause three holes are better than a hole-in-one!!!
The USGA has Olympic Club tricked out pretty good.
Because -28 shouldn't win you a major.
Man, Chris Berman gets more annoying by the minute. What he knows about the sport could fit in a thimble, leaving enough room for the Chinese Army.

Toward the end of yesterday's broadcast Berman asked "Is the golf course really this hard?" Fuck no asshole, professional golfers from all over the world picked this weekend to get together and make all of us duffers out there feel better about ourselves. Dumbest statement of the US Open so far.
Yep, the way the nitwit awkwardly shoehorns references and phrases from other sports into his commentary because he lacks the lexicon of golf never ceases to irritate. "Welcome to the NFL Prime Time of golf..." was a particularly painful one, along with his insistence of calling out shanks and naming missed putts balks.
I opened the deck closet to get some lounge chairs and found where my wife stashed all my golf clubs. They all came falling out all over the place when I opened the door. Then a Ping bag full of clubs came crashing down on me. I'm glad I never owned a bowling ball because that would really suck to come down on you.
Prime Time coverage, bitches!!! TW making a real
mess out of the front nine.
played 9 this arvo. 5 bogies 4 pars. a few putts burned the hole. tee to green ok. putting solid but unexceptional.
looking forward to tomorrow, i love that golf course. go jim.
My son just took me to play for Fathers Day..great weather.I shot 95..he shot 92..his best rd ever..and 2nd time he has ever beaten me..Im gettin old..

This was awesome..just awesome

The only problem I have with yesterday's outcome was I fucking fell asleep
while Furyk and McDowell were on 16.
Tell me about it. Since Thursday, I must have averaged between 6 and 10 hours of coverage per day. By the time this event was over, I was more worn out than the players competing. What an astounding thing to witness, with more subplots, back stories and overall compelling drama than most Hollywood movie makers or best selling authors could even hope to imagine.
Par 5 11th hole yesterday. Sliced tee shot OB.
3 off the tee in the fairway. 4th right rough 155 out.
Proceeded to dump my 5th in the drink in front of the
green. Drop 6, 7 on the fringe about 40 feet away.
Poor chip and two putts later I carded a fucking ten.
Still shot 89. Can't wait to do it again Sunday.
After some nasty weather blew thru the DC area
last nite, they're playing the AT@T without galleries.
Spectators told to stay home because of fallen trees.
Kinda strange watching TW play without a mob scene
around him.
WTF...Michelson misses the cut at Greenbriar again..Tiger in trouble..so much for my trip to WV tomorrow..
I really think Phil is focusing more on the British Open rather than anything else, as he's headed to Europe next week to practice. He could use the head-start, judging by the way he was spraying the ball all over the place yesterday. His mind certainly wasn't in West Virginia.
Strange but very cool to not have to listen to drunk, loudmouthed idiots yelling "GET IN THE HOOOOOLE!!!!!!" every mother fucking time he hits the ball, even if he is 607 yards from the hole.
Just read TW blamed mising the cut on "playing in altitude".
Also said his SW was going 142, 145. PW was going 160.
Are you fucking kidding me? I'm reaching for the 6 at 160.
Why would you play a course with those conditions
two weeks before a major? Isn't that like playing the Shell Houston Open
on those Bermuda greens the week before The Masters?
Their PW is not like ours.They are closed etc. etc. I'm with you 160 is a 7 or 6 iron....Just got the new Cobra Amp Driver.....WOW!!!
Hey psycho, please get out of my Van Halen T-shirt before you jinx the band and they break up.
Same hole two weeks later. Driver, nutted 3-wood, wedge
to three feet. Kick-in birdie.
Still shot 89. Took a ten on the par 5 3rd. Wish I
could stay away from the fucking blow up hole.
well done W. i'm in a slump at the moment.. this game does that to ya!
Yeah it does.48-41 yesterday I was on fire. With an insufferable
prick not playing well in my cart complaining
after every shot.
yeah, whinging playing partners are grrreat fun.
we're in winter here too, mate. miserable weather!
Winter, eh? Was wondering why you
hardly post here anymore.
yeah man, i'll start practising for the club champs in mid august- spring is september 1.
Whoreheys's British Open Prediction.
Matty Kuchar will win his first major.
Crazy? Like a fox! Royal Lytham is like a sponge
that has 205 bunkers.
Another prediction. Ernie Els and Paddy
Harrington will finish Top 10.
And that's 150. I think most of them are
in this thread.
Rick Springfield said it was freezing there today.
I was all set to shite on your prediction to stir up discussion but I like this.
Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Rain with high in mid 50s.
Fahrenheit, Ash.
Welcome to the British Open.
Enter the Kuche!!!
Didn't shoot himself out of it today. TW made a nice showing also, but I'm skeptical after seeing his weekend performance in the previous two majors.
Snedeker with an awesome round today.
Mickelsen MC. Where's all this fucking rain
they were calling for?
Snedeker falling apart. Scott/Woods pairing tomorrow?
I may have to reschedule Mrs. Whorehey's birthday. She's
gonna be pissed...
Scott/McDowell tomorrow. Snedeker gets TW.
Shit, I was hoping for some fireworks between Steve Williams (on the bag for Adam Scott) and Tiger. That would have been must-see-tv.
Scott should be running away with this by at least two
more than he is. Two birdie putts in a row left short.
Glad I didn't put money on my Kuchar prediction.

I love that ESPN commercial where Tiger has the gallery following him through the studio..classic
I have a 2:30 tee time today..strange to get to see this tourney ending and then go play..
