Golfer's (Not Rider Cup Related)

firstdown · 10-04-2010, 02:14 PM

I spent the weekend at Bay Creek playing golf located on the Chesapeake Bay on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. I'll have to say this is one first class golf resort and would recommend this to any of my fellow golfers here on the Warpath. They have a 18 holes Jack Nicklaus and a 18 hole Arnold Palmer course. We played both and I'll have to say I enjoyed the Palmer course the most but the Nicklaus course was just as nice (small greens). We had 20 guys go and it cost me $140 for our house we rented and golf was $90 and a second 18 was $30. Its not cheep but if any of you want to play a nice course give it a try and the views on some of the holes are priceless.

I was looking for a Golf Related thread because the question that I am going to present is not worthy of its own thread. Perhaps an "Everything Golf Related" thread is in order? I thought that there was already one, but my search did not find it.

Anyway, Smootsmack is probably the most qualified to answer this question, but I didn't want to short change myself of anyone having first hand knowlege.

I used to watch Morning Drive on the Golf Channel and I stopped right around the time that Erik Kuselias (SP) was "reassigned". I am fully aware of the reasons (Holly Sonders) for his reassingment etc. My question however is this "In what ways did he demonstrate a lack of knowlege of Golf?" I kept on seeing posts of people taking jabs at the guy for not knowing or understanding the game of Golf. In all of my research I saw the accusations, but I never saw any supporting evidence for those statements. If anyone can provide me with statements made by EriK Kuselias that support the idea that his knowlege of the game of Golf was lacking it would be greatly appreciated.

I do not condone EK's behavior, engagement, etc. and this is not an attempt to have a love fest for the guy; nor is it to bash his life choices. I enjoyed his presence on the Golf Channel and I want to know if his knowlege really was lacking so that I may understand my own lack of knowlege. Warning: do not try and use Google to answer this question, you will waste your time. You must have first hand knowlege of something you heard, read, or watched him say that would support the idea that he is clueless about Golf.

EK's an arrogant SOB (in my opinion) but the Golf Channel stint was always meant to only be temporary. I'm sure his engagement to Sonders may lead people to believe that's why he left the show. But from what I know from before he left ESPN the plan was always for him to be part of the overall NBC Sports
