master-baters

if you're a golf fan, or know a golf fan, then you know that the masters is this weekend. you might also know that the masters is a major, the first of the year. in other words, in the golf world, this tournament is huge.

so it baffles me how poorly usa/cbs have covered it. generally, tourneys like the british open are covered from 10am-6pm, and that one sucks way more than the masters. other than the lame ass "feel good specials" there hasnt been any extra coverage of the actual event. and, since usa/cbs hold the rights to it, when they're showing crappy reruns of soap operas, monk, and the local news, other channels which might actually be interested in showing live play (the golf channel), cant.

and its not like i could watch extended coverage anyhow, because i have these two huge papers due in two weeks, but its really the principle of it. cuz when i'm eating lunch, i'm pissed that coverage isnt on yet. they're on the course, so it should be. so maybe instead of showing lame reruns of shows that were never good to begin with, or lying in newscasts, usa and cbs should cater to what people actually want, good golf coverage. personally, i'd rather stare at the wall than watch most of the shit either of those channels shows.

i'm not bitter at all.
