Annoying Golf Announcers

Listening to the tournament on Sirius yesterday I got tired of the, "He'll have a good look at birdie" phrase. Is there a "bad look" at birdie? Another phrase I heard after someones putt barely made it in from the side of the hole, "A little side-door Sally action". I knew a back-door Sally once but never a side-door Sally. Not sure I'd want to. The Sirius guys are the worst. Almost comical, but it did lessen the agony of the 45 minute drive to Orlando.

"He'll have a look at birdie" vs. "He'll have a GREAT look at birdie."

No difference to you?

None whatsoever as far as the broadcast went. Besides it's relative to the player on determining what adjective to use. 10ft away from the hole I'd have a look at birdie, whereas you might have a good or great look at birdie because you're a better player. At any rate, I got tired of the phrase after a while.
