The Miking of CK

gxer · 06-12-2009, 11:37 AM

The miking of CK is one of the worst ideas ever.
OK, that's it, that's all I am going to say because if I say more some of you are going to get upset with what I say rather than discuss the issue of miking Miss Uncouth of the LPGA tour.

I'd like to see them mike Suzann, personally. It sure would make the broadcasts more interesting.

I don't have a problem with a player being 'miked'.

I doubt it will offer any great insights ;but,as gimmicks go,it's not the worst thing that could happen during a golf tournament.

It's not like anybody suggested she 'tweeted' during her round.

As if anyone would be that stupid...

Indeed, CK's voice is very annoying!

Did you hear her yesterday? I listened just enough to know, I don't want to hear any more of this BS, and switched the channel.

I hit that shot like "beep". That "beeping beep" putt should have broken left. Do you "beeping" believe that "beep".

Nothing against the idea, it just did not succeed. It was overused. It seems that was all they were focusing on. I tuned out as well.

TGC and CK are doing the miked routine again today, so obviously the powers that be at TGC thought it was a success.

IMO, what is supposed to be serious competition in a women's major on the LPGA tour is being degraded, at times, into silliness by TGC and CK.
What are they thinking?
