Gee, I'll bet Tiger is up nights thinking about this.

Chamblee is OK I guess but I have to laugh when I consider that that a guy who has won exactly one Tour event in an 18 year career (an obscure Canadian event at that) is offering advice to a guy who will most likely break every PGA Tour record ever established in the history of the PGA Tour before he turns 40.

As far as announcers go, if I had to choose between Faldo and Chamblee, I'd take Faldo hands down. Faldo is funny, he's right to the point, he knows what he's talking about and he's very self-effacing. Add to that the fact that Faldo has almost won more majors than Brandel has even entered and I'll take what Nick has to say over anything Brandel (if it wasn't for the fact that they gave me a microphone, nobody would know who I am) Chamblee has to say.

What else have you got?

Like you say, opinions are just that.... opinions. I happen to far prefer Johnny Miller to Faldo... In fact I find Faldo a good reason to switch from golf to something else. I really DON'T like him. That's just my opinion.

I think that Chamblee is a decent analyst, he's a good speaker, and it's his job to do those things. If he isn't doing them then there is a lot of dead air, he gets fired, and someone else maybe even less qualified is babbling into the microphone. What do you really what after all? Just picture and lots of silence? It ain't gonna happen.
