CBS f*cks up royally

I don't really understand this. To me, McCord and Kostis are THE VOICES of CBS golf coverage over the last 25-35 years.

F*ck Jim "hello frunds" Nantz. Both he and Faldo are boring as hell.

I just don't get this move.

Hopefully, NBC and the Golf Channel will pick them up.

I like Faldo. Nantz and Kostis are a toss up. I would like to see McCord stay.

You lost me at "frick Jim "hello friends" Nantz. Every time I hear his voice I think of the masters. He's the voice of the masters.

Peter Kostis and the Minolta swing video analysis he provided was excellent

And the spinoff comedy pieces were gold.

Must have been a salary / contract issue.

CBS effed up when Feherty left.

Kostis was pretty good at what he did for them. McCord just got on my nerves.

When I think of McCord, I think of the bar bet in Tin Cup.

Maybe I’m alone in this, but I think McCord is absolutely awful.

Think Faldo is terrible too fwiw.

Don’t mind Kostis.

CBS is going to get downright unwatchable. They already show about a shot and a half between long commercial breaks as it is.

Stupid decision IMO. Kostis had a great voice and provided good swing analysis. McCord a different vibe.

And to replace them with Davis Love III

I don't understand the decision about McCord. He's 72 and was probably going to retire in a year or two. Let him go out on his own terms. Hell, even the green jackets might have let him return to AN for his final year.

No really strong opinion on Kostis. He knew the swing but I don't think he offered much else beyond that.
