Let the countdown begin

Paramus, NJ - The Barclays and our last golf tournament of the year. It feels like just yesterday we were out on the west coast with a whole year ahead of us. Now we're in the final stage with the end in sight. The FedEx Cup playoffs have begun, but for some reason, it doesn't have the magnitude or the air of importance that it was meant to have. Another Tiger-less field and a final week for us keeps us all looking ahead. We started the week off with our NFL Seminar and most of us are more pumped and excited about our week one assignments than anything else right now. It's all with good reason. The excitement and the atmosphere that surrounds NFL games brings out about something that is practically unheard of on the PGA Tour. Either way, its a good end to a fun year and we've already started looking ahead to San Diego and the Buick Invitational in January.

Lucky #13

A week off so I hit the road again. Off to San Diego to visit my college teammate and one of my best friends Joey and his lime tree. Yeah I know, but he really does have a lime tree growing in his front yard. A day at the beach in Coronado playing horseshoes, watching dolphins swim right in front of us, kicking a soccer ball around and just taking in way too much sun was a great time. Exactly what I needed as I unwind from the golf season and get ready to start the 2008 NFL season. A brief post for now but more to come as the weekend unfolds. Tomorrow holds a lot as we get ready to watch the EPL kickoff in the morning.

Glory's last shot...

So we're into day 2 of the PGA Championship and it wouldn't be right if we hadn't had some sort of weather delay. Round 1 was halted for a while yesterday because of lightning in the area, but fortunately play did resume last night. We're a little behind schedule right now (golf wise) but nothing we can't catch up to. I'm sitting here in one of our many, many broadcast trucks in our city of a compound. The 'beast' that is the PGA Championship grows every year and its incredible to see how large of a production this is. It's absolutely amazing and one of the best events on sports television to be a part of. With an uncountable amount of coverage every day, including late night shows, we've still got a long way to go.
