Not sure about this really. I’m not saying I’d make an effort to not watch it, but I won’t necessarily make one to watch it...If that makes any sense. 
As much as I’m a Tiger fan and like to watch him play this isn’t the venue I’d choose. Tiger is the GOAT. Phil’s not really even close to Tiger in that capacity. No one is. No, Jack isn’t. I guess the trash talk can be fun? But it doesn’t have much bite when you’ve got one player so dominate over the other. The tail wagging the dog gets old.

You avatar creeps me out.

But back to the topic...  I am dying to watch ANY sports on tv that is not a rerun.  Depending on the format, this may be interesting.

Hopefully the announcers will realize we’re not there to hear them. Player to player or caddie to player....shut up. Last time was a mess.

Hopefully Brady won't be walking into a stranger's home just off one of the fairways.

He leaves the Pats and he’s already lost.

your pro has to play the next hole alternate shot with Charles Barkley as their partner

Nobody wants to see that train wreck. 😳

I’m gonna have to figure out a way to root for Phil and Manning...

[Yukari]

So who is better golfer between Manning and Brady?  Or will they be given handicaps?

[ChrisP]

As a Bucs fan, all I gotta say is Go Team Brady!

Any official date set for this thing yet? It's been awfully quiet. I wonder if it'll even happen.

I read that the match is going to take place on Memorial Weekend. Has anyone heard anything different?

[Herkimer]

Is this happening?  If so, when is it and on what channel please?  I'm surprised I haven't heard anything about it.

First google search says TNT exclusive on May 14th. Didn’t say specifically when

[phillyk]

It was updated. May 24th at Medalist Golf Club, front 9 is fourball, back 9 is a modified alternate shot. 

[Herkimer]

Yes!  An article about it just showed up on Google News.

Turner Sports has officially announced when and where The Match: Champions for Charity golf exhibition—which pits Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning against Phil Mickelson and Tom Brady—will take place.

Where: Medalist Golf Club in Hobe Sound, Florida

When: Sunday, May 24 at 3 p.m. ET

Watch: TNT, TBS, truTV and HLN

I can't wait.  These are 4 guys who hate to lose.  Should be a great match.  So this will be two Sundays in a row -- May 17th and May 24th -- with new golf matches to watch.

To me any live golf sounds good now. If I have to pay for it but proceeds go to relief efforts, I’d say its a win-win. Lets hope they adjust the game plan a bit though.

I'd like to see it, but with that lineup I won't. I get none of those channels since I cut the cable and decided to no longer pay for television.

Peyton is pretty funny here.

That was quite entertaining. I can't wait to see this (the match that is).

I am team Tiger/Payton all the way! Can't wait to see this match. I hope they have more discussion leading up the the match.

I'm really looking forward to the alternate shot part of it.
