just bloody awful. i do realize that becomes irrelevant in a big way weekend next....but still. awful.
I agree, it's bad. I think the anticipation for next week makes it worse.

I was watching swimming, and I love swimming. Still, I can't wait for football.

huh, i didn't see that in the listings here in Denver. instead i've got MIchael Chiarello on and the "arty" cinema veritas floating camera-work is making me seasick.

as near as i can tell poker is on in some form 24/7.
the WNBA......derisive snort/chuckle.
waiting for golf, there's a tennis thing on and lots of action/music vid segments featuring Maria Sharapova's tennis panties. it's fairly unsubtle.

just to interject golfwise here: i'd really like to see Furyk win today....he's played really well over the last 4-6 weeks. and, nice to see Stewart Cink respond to being a Ryder Cup captains pick by contending/tied for the lead this week.
i'm sure Lanny and Shakespeare (err, i mean Nantz) are talking about this....but i have the TV muted.

The final round is being shown tape-delayed. I was wondering what was going on when I was on ESPN a bit ago and the leaders were on the back 9.

They don't seem to be showing tape delays of the FIBA World basketball championships.
Too bad becuase it looks like Coach K put the team concept back into USA basketball. This is the best US national team since the 1992 Dream Team.

Tiger has a 2-shot lead on the back 9. If I'm Steve Williams, I snap his driver over my leg - Tin Cup style.

yeah, to be honest i'm not following it that close....but there was about a 2 minute period where every other player missed makable putts and all of a sudden Eldrick had the lead.

Well, I DVR'd a couple of the ESPN Classic college football games they were showing yesterday, '93 BC-Notre Dame and '05 Louisville-W. Virginia, so that got me in the mood.
But yeah, the last Saturday before college football season is always the succ.
