He works for the Golf Channel, which is owned by the NBC sports group but he also works for CBS. Hadn't really paid attention to this before but I wonder what kind of amazing deal he has to work with multiple companies? Miller and the rest of them work for one and that's it. I wonder how he is able to do it? Anyone have some insight?
Also if any of you caught the action today from Rivera when they had the audio on Phil and Bones at 16 that was an awesome conversation to listen to. Take care everyone, enjoy the weekend. |

I'm not totally sure about this, but I think he can because his contract with CBS and a separate 1 with Golf Channel prior to the NBC merger allows him to flip. He isn't alone though, as Feherty as his own TV show with Golf Channel. I know Dick Enberg had a history of jumping networks, and I know NASCAR's Larry McReynolds along with Matt Yocum is with both FOX and TNT. Other than those, I can't think of anyone who jumps around networks. I wish Gus Johnson would so we could still hear him announce March Madness now that he's with FOX. :-(

Two days of Faldo is difficult. All four rounds is unbearable!

I don't mind Nick, he knows what's going on but he can't put it into words for the general public to understand. Miller acts like he is talking to his caddy with all the technical details. Feherty is my favorite, tells the information and tells some jokes, nothing too serious. |

Yes, the viewer is treated to "expert" analysis on two different channels.
There's the classic: "Hello!" The double: "Hello! Hello!" And the trifecta: "Hello! Hello! Hello!" I don't know what I'd do without this top-notch breakdown. Maybe this sounds intelligent to some people because it's said with a British accent. As far as I'm concerned, he has very few meaningful things to say. |

Faldo isn't bad. At least he isn't Mr. Negative as is Chamblee and Miller.
I would love to see Rocco Mediate announce when he retires from the game. |

Faldo should be appreciated in England where he belongs. And he can take the 'Sir' back with him.
As soon as Palmer Nicklaus and Watson are knighted then we can call him Jr. Faldo. If you were to eliminate the "I" and "Me" from his conversations he would be speechless. |
