oldwomanc6 38 #1 April 9, 2017 Mr.owc6 is watching the Masters, and people are screaming like they're at the Super Bowl. It used to be that both the crowd and the announcers would whisper, and maybe you would hear the occasional gasp and appreciative murmur. What gives?lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldwomanc6 38 #4 April 9, 2017 headoverheels They just need bouncers to eject and ban a few. They used to do that for the more "enthusiastic" fans. Does this mean golf is mainstream, now? lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,048 #5 April 9, 2017 What is this "golf" of which you speak, woman? I think I once heard something about a game for non-skydivers. No, that was something called, "Bowling." So, I guess the bottom line is - since I don't know how the other half lives... I'll simply not care, M'lady. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

It used to be that both the crowd and the announcers would whisper, and maybe you would hear the occasional gasp and appreciative murmur. What gives?We were just discussing that while watching awhile ago. I took a serious test today for a medgas cert. The other students woundn't STFU during the test. I finally stood up and told them all to STFU. Class went silent. No common courtesy in this world anymore it seems.I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

Not sure that telling everyone to STFU is common curtesy, but it sounds as if it was effective. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phillbo 11 #12 April 10, 2017 Try the 16th hole at the Phoenix Open..... They actually boo bad shots. Tiger Woods refuses to participate in the open even after getting a hole in one on the 16th. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61wdJDmhN9Y Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jclalor 12 #13 April 14, 2017 I think as quickly as Tiger made the sport explode, his absence has made it deflate. 10 years ago when I was paying $100 for a round, I'm now paying $30. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dpreguy 14 #14 April 18, 2017 Somewhere I have a full page cartoon - something like the New Yorker cartoons - where the is a golf announcer is hanging on the old classic small tree branch 50 feet below the edge of a cliff. He is saying "help" "help", but his voice is depicted in very very small print. There is a large gathering of people on the lawn and near the edge, sipping their drinks, etc. oblivious to his plight. For no good reason, other than this is a cartoon, there is a large coil of rope laying right there. Caption is, "Melvin, golf announcer falls to his death, unable to shake his golf announcer voice." I wish I could find it to copy and post. Have looked and just can't locate it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
