443.0. "Nabisco tourny coverage" by NSG018::STOPERA (skill is stronger than strength) Mon Nov 14 1988 17:19

    Did anyone catch the Nabisco tourny this past weekend on ESPN. I
    am very pissed off at their coverage, I think it stunk, 6 holes
    to play of the richest tourny in golf history on one of the greatest
    courses of all time (Pebble Beach) and they cut away for good to
    give football scores. I am outraged and am boycotting ESPN and all
    their sponsers.

    ya, iam just as po ed as you. its just like the other big networks
    the big bucks first. i did see some fantastic shots following this
    tourny. I PICK CURTIS STRANGE OVER TOM KITE
    
      happy with what i saw anyway. as curtis always says "leave your
    camera at home"

    Re -.1  If you are talking about Curtis Strange's problems with
    people taking his picture, I think he was just being silly.  As
    one of the announcers indicated, as you move up in the ranks, more
    and more people will be watching your play.  As long as the pictures
    are not taken at critical times, such as right at the time he makes
    a potentially match-winning putt, then I don't think he has any
    reason to gripe.  After all, without the spectators, he would be
    out of a job and would have to work for a living. 8^)
