Wow.. This probably deserves its own thread, but the argument between brandel and frank on Live From tonight analyzing tiger's problems got to a total embarrassing level for the Golf Channel. Holy cow!!!!

What happened?

Dear Colin Montgomerie:

Think of it this way: Rory isn't trying to win three straight events, he's trying to win the PGA. And given how well he's played lately, he's got as good a chance to do that as anyone. To think that i

What happened?

Wasn't that big of a deal. Was about Tiger's driving, i.e. aoa and his launch angle, and Brandle says Tigers tilt's backward to gain the aoa and that's what's hurting Tiger's back..Frank disagreed.

They just got way carried away arguing with each other about statistics. At one point, Brandel bet Frank everything he owns that he was wrong about Tiger swing speed last year. Lerner and Notah were noticeably uncomfortable. they just kept going on and on.

One thing it did, was break up the monotony of the show... :-D

I just found it. Nobilo was really heated about the injury thing.

For two guys that are supposed to be professional commentators, I disagree. Frank didn't just disagree and let it go..they argued like a couple of kids for 5 minutes. I didn't say that they got into a fist fight, but it made them look like a bunch of clowns.

Nothing like a couple old blow-hards arguing about another golfer lol. I'm amazed that the GC still exists at all.

Nobilo and Chamblee don't particularly like each other, from what I've gathered.

I like Nobilo. He's said many more correct things about the golf swing than Chamblee has, and his presentation is much more enjoyable that Chamblee's, imo.

I agree, but I tend to agree with Brandel's argument tonight. Was quite entertaining to watch them argue.

Also, my Bubba hatred has increased.

So given Rory's play, what do you guys think, -2 and better have a shot at this point?

Agree. I don't mind Brandel. People don't like him because he's hard on Tiger, but that's kinda why I do like him. Too many guys kiss up to Tiger and he's not afraid to be critical. And I thought he was pretty spot on tonight.

That was weird.

Brandel starts by essentially saying that Tiger is trying to live and die with Trackman, and it's screwing with his swing.

Begay says, "No, Tiger is injured. It's not his swing, it's his back."

Brandel and Nobilo go at it ... shaft lean, club head speed, yada, yada, yada ... I bet everything on this set... yada ... and the argument seems senseless and unprofessional

Rich uncomfortably tries to end it ... cue uneasy laughter...

Brandel's argument didn't make much sense to me. Trackman is a sophisticated piece of machinery; it would be so easily fooled by whatever Brandel said Tiger was doing. Also, "leaning back" is not what Tiger or any other tour pro is doing. Their spines are tilting to the right but its not faked secondary axis tilt. And it wont hurt your back.

As for the Bubba thing, I really can't stand his attitude. I don't get it. He's better than what he's been acting lately.

I just watched the argument and I wouldn't have watched it if you guys weren't talking about it. ;-)

Maybe it was good for ratings. :hmm:

      Day 49. Played 9 from tees a bit beyond my comfort zone and was humbled. Hit a couple good shots so will take that at least.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By saevel25 ·

      +12 47, and never lost a ball or had a penalty. Got the snap hooks off the tee for the first 3 holes. So, playing the punch out game. Probably had like 20 putts. Bad short game day. The greens were weirdly firm but slow. I just don’t get spin out of the rough. I had a SW, with good height hit middle half of the green and end up almost off the back of the green. I know what I was doing with the full swing. Bad habits creeping in.

      9 years and counting. Lil chipped paint here and there but still going strong. Also have an 18 deg driving iron that I got a couple of years ago which is doing well too. @iacastried it and I think he liked it.
