Our top five stories of the year… and three that almost made the cut. Can you guess what they are?

I just checked with the US Patent Office to see if anyone has come up with a cure for boring television golf commentators. Nothing has been registered, but word has it that a golf addict who jammed pencils in his ears while listening to Bobby Clampett talk about "center cut pork chops" (when did they start putting meat on the PGA Tour?) is busy designing a TV Golf Spam Protector. The invention is expected to empty psychiatric wards from coast to coast.

The Solheim Cup definitely gained at least one new fan this past weekend.

I also agree with the article...my daughter works in live broadcast news and she says many of the problems mentioned are the poor work of the writers, directors and producers of the show. Blaming the reporters is like blaming a waiter/waitress when the kitchen in a restaurant is slow..

Kudos,

I salute your honest take of this past weeks Solheim coverage. Your thoughts and points of arguments are very valid. One can only hope that the Golf Channel will learn from this disappointing display of poor broadcasting and improve upon it in some way, shape or form. Hell, get Charles Davis, Steve Duemig or Kelly Tilghman from the 19th hole to broadcast events. At least their opinionated.
