Nick Faldo

Nick Faldo is, as of recently, a cbs, and occasionally the golf Channel, announcer. Do you guys think he is good at announcing? I think he has some very valid and strong points but tends to get a little off topic.

Just wanted to hear some thoughts.

I'm starting to warm up to him. I thought he was a bit of a stuffy prick when he first started in the booth, but he's starting to get into the swing of things. I think spending some time with Feherty is really starting to help him.

I like Faldo, think he does a good job.
Johnny Miller just needs to shut the hell up.

Yeah, that's kinda how I feel about you! I like Faldo announcing...I like Feherty better than any of them!

Faldo is OK. Miller is the best in the biz, how anyone can hate him is beyond me.

I must be beyond you, because Johnny Miller is a complete ASS.
