Idle thought about an idle thought

Wally suggests in a comment that writing about golf on TV is a perfect storm of inactivity.

But I’m thinking, Wally, that Richard Sandomir gets a tidy salary from The New York Times to write about golf on TV:

On another subject, Nantz evidently wanted to portray himself as a Woods critic.

On Saturday, he said he was disappointed in Woods’s frustrated outbursts, although most would not call his words very profane. On Sunday, Nantz came off as a scold when he called the language “foul.” Even some of Nantz’s colleagues said Sunday that Woods seemed less himself when he was not exhibiting his emotional side.

If Nantz and CBS don’t want to hear Woods, don’t aim a microphone at him.

But that would be a shame because I thought it was classic when Woods executed poorly and, again talking to himself, said, “Eldrick!”
