  • Love the golf talk. Hate the politics and college football.

    The golf insights are amazing and I love every minute of it. I don’t care about the dives into college football or the presidential stories.

  • End the “Over-Under”

    Guys, can we end the “over-under” talk? It’s so annoying. When fans watch golf, they’re not thinking “over-under”, they’re watching and thinking about golf shots.
