Gary McCord, Peter Kostis are no longer part of CBS Sports' golf broadcast

Kostis and McCord both gone. Good. Two of my least favorite analysts. Unpopular opinion I'm sure.

Kostis' swing analysis has long been outdated visual observation of position-oriented theories made with the benefit of super slow motion technology, and that's about it. There are others out there can do that, if that's what people want, and do it better.

McCord is just a jabbering play by play guy these days whose "ooop!" and "whooaaa" type reactions and sound effects add nothing but clutter to the broadcast. Useless noise.

Now if "concern voice" Koch and "drawly folksy" Wadkins get the boot I'll be really happy.

both were great at their best.....but it’s time to get some new blood in there. More guys like Bones are needed IMO.

Anyone else watching Watchmen on HBO?

I’ve never read the comics/graphic novels or even seen the movie from a few years back...and I love it so far. I’m a total Damon Lindelof fan (especially The Leftovers) so it’s sucked me right in.

Really digging it. Jean Smart killed it last night. I'm also loving the Reznor/Ross score.

Glad you mentioned The Leftovers. Total sleeper all-time great show. Compact, complete, and brilliant.

I'm digging the Watchmen series so far. Definitely feel taking into the future from the original content gives much more room to maneuver.

Hard to compare this with The Leftovers at this point until the first season is over but personally was much more into the Leftovers 3 eps in. I really really liked the Leftovers. The first and third seasons were amazing imho.

Well written, but shame on the judge for not throwing out the case and shame on the parents for the frivolity they put their already-traumatized son through.

I agree and I’m glad they lost, but I also sympathize with the kid and his parents some. They probably feel his life in a ways was stolen in a freaky play. That family needs to find a way to heal. Very sad for all.
