ABC?!?! WHY?

[rchanvit]

I'm sure there's probably been a post about this already, but it just ticks me off when ABC airs the PGA Tour event, and always cuts it short, no matter what hole who's on. I mean, it could be Tiger putting for the win, and it's 5:58 p.m. eastern time and ABC goes off air on the golf coverage. How man of you guys wish they would just complete the whole round for a change. Didn't this happen to Sergio a couple years ago????

yea, they all do that on thurs, fri, sat but on sunday they run over a lot, like i remember especially at pebble beach this yr, they were like 45 mins over the planned time. i do like ABC and CBS though for their coverage, but NBC is just my personal least favorite.

why doesnt abc move the gold coverage to espn so they dont have to have the world cup final in the middle of it

[akap4surf]

at least we don't have to listen to johnny miller on nbc!

They're pretty close to bring the worst. Thank goodness they won't be around at all for golf broadcasts in 2007.

Johnny Miller is halarious. He's like so ANTI-everything good about golf. You would forget that he was, at one time great for a year (maybe two).

 

Johnny: Oh that's into the grain isn't it DOTTY?

Dotty: No actually Johnny its just fine, a little down-grain, it should play nicely

 

Johnny: It's easy to get the ball to stop like that with the square grooves these guys are playing nowadays

 

Johnny: That is not an easy shot

 

Johnny: I've been there, that is NOT an easy shot

 

Johnny: That was a so-so effort from there

 

Johnny: Just hit a 3-iron, walk up there, make par and say thank you for the trophy. Theres no need to ride in there on a white stallion.

 

POST YOUR FAVORITE JOHNNY QUOTE!

I thought I was the only one b*tching about the coverage, or non-coverage. Why bust up a golf tournament with coverage of succer. :cheesy:
