http://www.golf.com/tour-and-news/david-feherty-out-cbs-sports-golf-commentator?xid=golf_social [QUOTE]David Feherty called his last tournament for CBS Sports this past weekend at the Barclays. According to a report from John Ourand of Sports Business Daily, CBS Sports has decided not to renew Feherty’s contract, ending what has been a 19-year relationship. SBD’s sources said the sides could not agree on Feherty’s role.[/QUOTE]

My thoughts exactly. He's hilarious when he's spontaneous but absolutely cringe-worthy when he forces it. Unfortunately he forces it all too often. He needs to realize that not every comment requires

That stinks!  I like CBS' golf crew over NBC or FOX.  The occasional back and forth between Feherty and McCord or Feherty and Faldo were really entertaining.

Meanwhile they keep McCord? Do they have any idea what their audience likes (OK, I know the answer)? What are these people thinking?

Ok I will go against the grain on this one. Personally I would like more McCord than Feherty if I had to pick between those two. Bikini Waxed greens should be a classic.

Sad to here. Is a genuinely entertaining broadcaster.

Could be a good thing, though. He could end up on the Golf Channel, help invigorate NBC.

I think it's sad all the way to over there, too. (Apparently Matt is already rubbing off on his team mates. Try and not let his "distance wedge" issues rub off on you too) :P

He is sort of a crazy guy, who knows what he was asking for. Maybe Fox or NBC will want to pick him up now. Either way it is loss for CBS and Feherty. Let's see how it turns out for him.

Ever since I became a forum leader my spelling has gone off a cliff! Or, perhaps, I had one too many beers tonight. :-P

I'd say it was probably Feherty pushing for a more prominent role or more money. Something more fitting to what he does on his TGC show, which I think was been pretty popular.

Yeah, I can see Fox overspending to up their presence in golf and can see that being Feherty's strategy.

I like Feherty, sad to hear that CBS let him go.  Hopefully he'll get picked up elsewhere.  If nothing else, I enjoy listening to his accent - he could read the dictionary and make it sound entertaining. :-)

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
