oh wait are you talking about golf? no clue golf on TV is like nascar on TV, worthless to watch.

I love golf in person, but tv http://rolleye.com/sickgreen.jpg

I noticed that there was ongoing coverage of the US Open golf on the radio too. :eek:

Yeah, I was trying to avoid posting a novel. :)

Yes, I was re-booked on the flight the next night. They gave us a meal voucher during the first of the two hour delay's. It was a major inconvenience and I missed several meetings because of the cancellation, one of which was with a potential customer.

I figured they'd kick me a couple of miles or a voucher for an upcoming flight, based on what I read about some folks getting as compensation.

+1 Though, I must admit watching the area of Pebble Beach makes me want to go back. I love that area of CA. That's the only reason I have been checking in on the tournament. Otherwise... I agree.

I would love to go to Pebble, and this round 4 is the definition of "drama".

I've watched World Cup, NASCAR, and golf on television thus far today (even listened to one of those on the radio).

If you've listened to NASCRAP or golf on the radio, you should be banished from the 'Box. The World Cup... I would listen in, only if the USA was playing. How can people listen to auto racing on the radio?!?:confused::confused::rolleyes::rolleyes: Ditto w/ golf.:rolleyes::confused::rolleyes::confused:

hahahaha I have to admit something last weekend I listened to RODEO on radio...this time of year is Rodeo time in TX. And i did not listen for the rodeo performances, I listened to the utter stupidity and hilarity of the woman that was supposed to be doing commentary and telling you what was happening.

It took me 5 min to figure out they were doing barrel racing. I was so tired the gut wrenching laughing was keeping me awake listening in on that!

She was doing more cheering with a mic than radio announcing, and it just resulted in laughter from me. It was good home was only 30 min out or I'd have died laughing.

Given the choice of golf or Lady Gaga on the radio, golf is going to win.

Mickelson apparently hit a volunteer / marshall in the chest.

If you don't hear anything from CO by mail within a reasonable time, escalate by contacting CO Insider via PM. A meal voucher is insufficient compensation for a 24 hour delay caused by MX.

$...ty radio you have in the car. :rolleyes: 2 stations in BNA? I'd rather listen to road noise or put a CD (or a cassette tape in your case ;) ) on.
