Vince Cellini

[Q.Q.Quillume]

The latest issue of Golfweek reported Cellini is no longer with the Golf Channel because an agreement couldn't be reached re: a new contract.

Cellini was host of the 19th Hole & co-hosted most of the Big Breaks with Stephanie Sparks and my guess is he was on other G.C. programs as well, maybe even golf tournaments.

From my perspective, I like Vince but didn't think he was a "star", so it shouldn't be too hard for the G.C. to replace him.

It sounded as if the newest Big Break (BB VIII?) started taping a week or so ago and that Cellini didn't go to (wheveever) to host/co-host the show.

Anyone out there gonna miss Vince? Anyone out there glad Vince is gone?

Personally, I'd like to see the G.C. get rid of Steve Duemig (19th Hole). IMO, he's a super annoying blob and that's about the best I can say . . .

Vince seemed like an OK guy. I won't shed a tear if he's gone, nor will I care if he's still around.

I can still remember Vince and his days at CNN Sports with Van Earl Wright

[EbonyGentleman]

I think he will end up on ESPN with his old buddy Fred Hickman.

Yeah he was ok I am sure they will be able to find somebody to replace him. His brother does a morning show here in Atlanta and he is pretty good.

Vince has been on the show from time to time and he is really good on the radio.

Bring Scott Van Pelt back!

With this new PGA Tour contract Golf Channel got, you'd think they have enough money to sign Vince but signing Tillman, Faldo, and others may have used money up or . . I wonder if they decided to save some money. Vince was probably pressing for his piece of the pie since Big Break is so successful. It is a shame. I did like him.

As you say, I would rather have had it been Steve Deumig. That guy brings nothing to the 19th hole show but a bad attitude - oh, and he also tells us several times a show that he is a family friend of Morgan Pressel.

Unfortunately for Vince, IMO the Big Break was successful, but I can't attribute any of the success to Cellini. I think most people watched because of Pam vs. Danielle, Tommy Two-Gloves, Don Donatello, Big Break Bri and other colorful contestants. Now don't get me wrong, a few people might have tuned in to see Stephanie Sparks . . .

Haven't watched him much on TV but like Mikey said above he is on the radio in Atlanta and he was always ok. I enjoy his brother on the radio and on the local sports channel.

Vince was alright, but the Golf Channel could certainly say adios to Steve and I wouldn't miss him.
