Kind of ironic. Not that he's wrong, but he's been riding Tiger's ass on the behavior pretty good. Would like to see it on youtube.

wouldn't bother me in the least to see GC get rid of him. he's so full of himself and doesn't know when to shut up.

TGC went to crap when they ran Peter Kessler. His interviews and his Golf Academy live shows were the best and only thing that network ever did that was worth watching. I would like to kick the jerk who created the big break right in his big break.

You dead ON here trick. GC has gone to pot imo. Too many "Yes Men".
Kessler was awesome...he loved the game and it showed.

As far as Hawkins goes, I'd rather more of him and a hell of lot less of Charlie Reimer...thats for sure. imho

The Golf Channel

Imagine if you would, what CBS would look like if it were the only news outlet...

The Golf Channel had a chance when it was first on the air to really do some good for golf, but it went to the recycle bin.

It really is a joke that these golf writers have been turned into golf analysts, and ex-players into swing analysts.

Hawkins has a personality—at least—but I'd like to see some real commentary for a change.

Just pitiful how they have to tip-toe around the "Haney might be bad for Tiger" subject because they have a serious conflict of interest.

Too bad.

There needs to be a alternative to the Golf Channel....

Lot's of people seem to love Kessler. He was good, but my gosh that guy would usually ask and then answer every question he put forward to his guest. He wasn't THAT great.

I never get too bothered by any announcer on TGC or NBC or CBS. Those cats are working in a pretty spontaneous environment and even though I may totally disagree with an off the cuff swing diagnosis, I feel pretty good that I really know what was going on and could give a hoot about what Kostis or Faldo or Nobilo might say. No biggy.... but I am amazed at how emotional some get about these guys.
