treeduck Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I just looked at the leaderboard and I don't know any of those guys. They could be the contestants in a fart bubble championship for all I would know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) I want Roger Maltbie damn it!!!... Are you desperate enough for Rolf yet? (Just teasing you, my friend) :rfl: Never. I have been "lucky" enough to hear plenty of him in the pre game. Geez can't he just go back to Hawaii never to return?... :| Edited June 20, 2015 by Narps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost In Xanadu Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Jordan is putting lights out right now! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Jordan better enjoy these while he can because carnage waits around every corner. He is banking some birds which is good for him but if he shoots under par total for the round I will shave my head... :) Edited June 20, 2015 by Narps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 The telecast really doesn't flow well at all. Seems like I am watching a recent Rush DVD or something... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because those bastards at the USGA don't limit commercials like they do at Augusta. Those people know how to run a tournament. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Something about this makes it not feel like a major. Or maybe several things. The brown course, the announce team...something.Joe Buck...Could be...The camera work is weird, too. Timing and angles. ETA: Yes, Narp, exactly like the concert videos.

goose Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 From USA Today: "US Open coverage is lots in the weeds" http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/06/fox-us-open-coverage-2015-nbc-joe-buck-greg-norman-nbc-review7. Show more shots. Over one stretch of 19 minutes on Thursday, Fox showed 11 shots, with eight being a putt and then a tap-in afterward.8. Getting the players right is a big to quite-big deal.11. There were far too many cuts to the booth with Curt Menefee instead of showing golf, as if people tune into tournaments to hear talking heads. We shouldn’t even see a booth and only get occasional glances at Joe Buck and Greg Norman, at least on the wall-to-wall golf days of Thursday and Friday.14. Too many big shots weren’t aired. For instance, early in the telecast, Rory McIlroy hit his tee shot into the bunker and the ball looked dead. Then, a few minutes later, viewers were shown McIlroy putting for birdie from about 15-feet, with no video to show how he got there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief. Frank Chirkinian where oh where are you when we need you? It must not be that easy to do it well apparently... RIP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughedatbytime Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 I guess the back nine will be a test of Grace under pressure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
