Besides, on NBC, it's always a relief to get a commercial break because at least then you don't have to hear Johnny Miller talk for 90 seconds. So look on the bright side.

This one was on CBS, so commercials gave you a break from Jim Nantz, a particularly worthless media specimen. Never at a loss for a cliche, that one.

Eh, of all the golf announcers out there, Jim Nantz and Lanny Wadkins are my favorite team. The least offensive and annoying of the bunch, although that's not really saying much. My favorite announcer, bar none, is Peter Alliss. He's perfect, and he hates Mike Tirico, which is always an added bonus.

Favorite golf line of the year by a golf announcer: Mike Tirico questions Peter Alliss's commentary during the Quad Cities. Alliss to Tirico: "Well, Mike, I have won 23 tournaments. I think I know a little about this game. How many have you won?"
