Today they talked about the color of golfers' pants.
Oh well, at least Tim Jeffreys's voice is less boring than Webster's.
Melanie now seems to be exclusively doing "The Scoop," music and entertainment news. Has my wish been granted?
Well, the golf thing, while not in, or anywhere near my alley, is at least SF-topical. I'm willing to give it a pass, if grudgingly. And yeah, Melanie is scoop-worthy, I suppose!
yes, no problem there. The US Open was *really* local, like go down that street and take a left and you'll be there.
I was in a bar on Clement yesterday and they had the golf on one TV and the giants game was on the other. They turned off the golf and put the Giants on both TVs.
I was like "Hey, how come you turned off the golf?"
"There were more request for baseball...," said the bartendress, who obviously hated golf, but blamed the yuppies who came in from their motorcylce ride down to Alice's Restaurant in Woodside.
"Huh.. No one asked me..." I said under my breath, b/c you know, stranger in a strange bar.
It was a VERY local event on a very global stage. These hipster-meatheads should have been ALL OVER IT. Instead they chose to watch the Giants choke on all the available TVs in the bar, as well as listening to Kruk and Kuip call the game over the bar's speakers..
When Kuip said "Yeah, that was a tough way to lose a ballgame," I thought of all those *good* ways you could lose a ballgame.
