Anyone catch Nick Faldo drop the S-bomb on the Congressional telecast today.

I was on my laptop half watching and heard it. "Huh?"

I grabbed the Tivo controller and confirmed I heard it right. None of the other commentators acknowledged it.

He later apologized using "a word he shouldn't have". Nobody commented on that either.

All I have to say is, WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?!?!?!

So today is Thursday, weren't the kids in school. And if they weren't, they must have been hardcore young golfers to have been watching. If that's the case I'm sure they have heard much worse on the course. I KNOW they hear and say worse in school. I love when Tiger drops the GD bomb on TV! But only because it shows a passion for the game.

Hilarious! i thought i heard that too, but I was only half-listening. After the fact I thought I misheard him and he was saying something different.

The 's-word' is allowed on TV as the FCC considers a random use of it a 'fleeting expletive'.

Yeah, I heard it. It sounded like he caught himself in the middle of the word, but it was too late.

He also apologized later in the telecast. Regrettable, but likely not even in the top 5 worst things the kids heard today. EDIT: My favorite golfer's vocalization so far this season came from Morgan Pressel. She hit a so-so shot and she screamed out "good- NESS GRA-cious". It made me laugh out loud. Not "f---" or "s---". Not "crap" or "dammit". Not even "poop". But "goodness gracious" . It made more of an impact than any expletive could have. I guess because it was such a strong contrast to what most players (ahem...Cristie Kerr) scream out. Dirty words don't bother me at all, but "goodness gracious" just seemed . . . classy . Well done Morgan.

What planet/country you from Stacy? It is the middle of the summer. Kids are out.

Sorry, if you couldn't tell but tongue was firmly planted in cheek . As the late, great George Carlin said, "F*** the children. 'He didn't just say F*** the children, did he?' Yes I did! F*** the children!"

Good for faldo.. keepin us on our toes..

But i must ask, who decided that the s word was bad word to say? what differs it from saying, "crap"?



I have no issues with players saying it.. if they are into it enough to clurt stuff out..thats their right.

adn who can honestly say that when speaking publically or to a superior, you havent said something you shouldnt have?

Yeah my bad, I don't have kids so I don't keep up with that....lol. And I'm right with you with the tongue in cheek. I cuss like a sailor on the course. And love it when the old codgers at my course do too. I think it's cause their wives won't let them cuss at home.

Well, like I said, stuff like that doesn't bother me. But the reason it matters is because talking

is his job. It's sorta like the fry cook at Micky D's not washing his hands after using the can one time. It's probably not gonna hurt anyone, but it just ain't right.

For you Big Break watchers I couldn't help laugh out loud when the young girl (name escapes me) would say, "Oh sugar!"

She's living on the edge, that one.

I can't remember the exact sentence, but I do remember it was right after DJ Trahan hit an approach shot that he was visibly upset about. Flipped his club at his bag and made his caddy flinch. Then the ball lands within 15 ft.

Faldo and the others couldn't believe he was upset and Faldo let it slip out. Edit: Something like, "He shouldn't worry about that shit" or "You shouldn't be bothered by shit." Damn, I'm going to hell...

      Grip Issue?!?

      By carpediem4300 ·

      Glad it helped!   I had a range session last night and it has really taken the left side of the course out of play for me which is nice.   Maybe fading them a little too much but that's less devastating on the course than a snapper for sure

      Day 265: played 18. Took forever and wasn’t at my best. Iron and wedge play is decent though. Then went to the driving range and worked on my priority piece while filming.

      True.  Scotty is not playing the field (so to speak), he’s happily married (best we can tell), and seems to have the personality to kind of ignore all the hoopla.  The strange thing with Scotty is it seems he can’t crack the code to have the love of the crowd - - he’s definitely cracked the code to winning everything in sight.  Albeit the bizarre situation where he got arrested, but remember how that all went down, the guy reached in and punched him in the face (I believe), and Scotty seemed to take it all very very low key.  Evidence?  Open your eyes, look at the results, look at the trends.  There’s 15 years of evidence! Phil total cowboy?  Hadn’t quite heard it put that way - I guess you’re talking about the gambling?  or the move to LIV?  In any case, a very different type of scenario for Phil.  I’d say that Phil optimized his talent and probably got as much out of his career he could.  If anything, Phil was not so great physically for quite a while, but he trimmed down and extended his career

      You don't know that for a fact.  You can't even provide evidence that supports the factors you listed out.
