Would I like to see them have a jello match? Once Lori and Dana are history.
I like your thinking on the jello match.

Hold on a wee small minute... Anyone know if we can get this anywhere in the UK? Or can I watch it online anywhere? I miss Monday Night Big Break!

Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey. Best finish in 2008 was T39 in the Puerto Rico Open. Currently 160th on the money list.

Tommy Gainey made it through Q school to get his card shortly after he won Big Break Reunion.

You could see it coming really. He was head and shoulders talent-wise above anyone else on that show.

I think at least two of the gals from BBV or BBVI got their LPGA cards through Q-school. Maybe more. Ashley Prange, BBV winner, is still kicking around the Futures Tour and finished 2nd in an event a few weeks ago.

So there are highly talented golfers on almost every Big Break. I think it's sad that the BB producers feel they need to put a terrible player or two on each show now to stir the pot. I don't know why they do it. Maybe to make the other, better players look that much better.

But when a terrible player takes one of the better players to extra holes in an elimination, it makes all the players look lousy.

If they get rid of the Asian gal, and Lori, the show will be highly watchable with hot, talented competitors. I just don't think Lori is going to go that easily. I guess she's won on the Futures Tour 7 times or somesuch.

Now I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up Lori and the Asian gal in the finals. Ugh. Unwatchable.

The less-talented players are always bitches, too. Makes for better TV I guess.

Cirbie never should have stood a chance.

She does seem to have some game. I really despise her. Typical over-compensating hater.

Not if it ends up in a chop-socky bitch-slap catfight!
