That was still better than Kimmel, Colbert, Meyer, or that chubby British guy.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Kimmel and Colbert. My favorite though is probably John Oliver, I find myself generally thinking exactly the same thing as Oliver. It's a little spooky actually.

Though you aren’t a fan, Kimmel and Colbert both have a lot of fans. It’s like realizing that not everyone shares your opinion on things and realizing that’s okay.

Underrated player Frank Nobilo had an immaculate swing too.

 

The casual golf viewer may think Chamblee was easily the better player.

Yep, he's got decent knowledge of his subject matter.

 

"After strong performances in all the majors, including a 4th-place finish in the Masters Tournament and a tie for 8th in the PGA Championship, Nobilo left Europe at the end of 1996 and joined the United States-based PGA Tour for the following season. He won the Greater Greensboro Chrysler Classic during his rookie season, which proved to be his only win on that tour. He has featured in the top 50 of the Official World Golf Rankings."

 

"One week after his marriage to Selena in 1998, Nobilo was struck above the left eye by an errant tee shot at the Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Central Florida. The injury required 30 stitches, and affected his play afterwards."

 

We'll never know, but maybe an even better playing career would have been without that eye injury?

Ha! Wayyy back in the day, Used to see Fallon during his SNL days at this place when I lived a couple of blocks away. He’d get a bit loopy but pretty chill

I bumped into him at Mollys a couple times on 23rd/3rd before he got tonight show. Liked his whiskey

It was his back that was the big issue and forced him out of the game.

Yep, eventually, but not in 1998.

True - arthritis was an issue ala 1997, the back around late 1999/early 2000. 
 

Before people made a thing about fantasy leagues, he was always on my team for the majors in a little majors competition I had with a friend way back in the day. 
 

Frank was and is cool.

I had the opportunity to talk with Frank Nobilo at the John Deere last summer. Very down to earth talked about state of his game,how today’s players are true athletes and old Mizuno blades. Spent about 15 minutes with him, very funny and self deprecating about his career. I think his does a good job so far on the telecast. Just my .02

Cool!  I had some quality time with Jim Nantz last summer near Pebble Beach - what a great person.

 

There, we've covered two of the "favorites"!
