Here we are, another golf Sunday, and the CBS golf hacks are once again kissing some major Tiger butt?
How come they are not showing Els.......or Kuchar.......or Slocum.......who by the way, are ahead of Woods........Huh?
Makes me sick.
Use the remote...
I have pretty much stopped watching golf because of this phenomanon. At I even LIKE Tiger Woods. I think he is a patriotic American and he is very good to veterans. So, it’s not him, it’s his fans.
But I am resolved not to let this bother me today (I managed yesterday, Tiger was far back, and it seemed to shut them up, I doubt that will continue today), since I really want to watch this as we drive past this golf course every day.
It is some nice publicity for Jersey City, for a change. ‘m glad they got one good day of weather to show the place off.
They always do. Can’t remember which network he is on, but Johnny Miller is absolutely the worst Tiger ass kisser out there. I always want to just smack the hell out of him.
During the PGA tournament, one announcer actually said that Tiger has hit some brilliant shots but with disappointing results. WTH?
Just doesn’t make sense. Hyperbole about the best golfer that the world has ever seen, where in the world does that come from? Exactly how many tournaments has Kuchar won, anyway? I do seem to remember that he won the U.S. Amateur once upon a time. Since then?
you had to start a thread on Tiger ?.....man it must suck bein you......
I don’t DISLIKE Tiger, I can’t stand the way these announcers suck up to him, he can o no wrong in their eyes. It really is pathetic to watch.
Deep down, you know he others golfers who play in the same tournements are PO’d, and want to slap the crap out of them.
and how dare Elvis having so many singing hits or how dare John Wayne for being THAT GOOD
Marion won last on the Gateway Tour (What tour is that?). Slocum, not exactly a household name. Goydos, he’s really tearing up the course today, isn’t he.
Even when Tiger is having a bad day, he’s up there on the Leaderboard. All the rest are great golfers, but they are not in the same league.
Don't like Tiger, I suggest you become a tennis fan.
“Use the remote”...
Yeah. Push the little button marked MUTE.
Your Welcome.
Yang wasn’t exactly a household name, but he sure outdueled Tiger for the last major of the year and I, for one, took sheer delight in that.
After all, there’s nothing better than watching a huge underdog come away with the win.
Regardless of his record, Tiger really hasn’t played that well this year. It looks like the best chance of winning is with Stricker, Els, and Zach Johnson...

Good win for Yang, well done. Tiger now two back and the wannabes are starting to fade. They all have the game to beat him, they just don’t do it very often.
Yes, I heard that. I thought Olbermann was doing an Obama analysis.
I think the players should SUE the announcers AND the network! For not fairly covering the rest of the field. Tiger gets an inordinate amount of coverage, even when he’s doing badly! Which isn’t very often. But there are other players in the game that we would like to see. Otherwise, golf on TV just becomes “The Tiger Show”.
Just curious....how many major championships have you won during *your* golfing career? How many green jackets do *you* have? How many brilliant shots have *you* made?
Which is sadder? Watching golf on TV, or taking the time to get on the internet and complain about it? You need a hobby.
I played 18 this morning...had a difficult shot on the edge of a trap just short of the green - uphill lie - had to stand in the sand and really choke down on the club. I channeled my inner Tiger and knocked it to within 4 feet of the hole. I truly enjoy watching Tiger play!
