Jim Calhoun's outburst creates fodder Mar 2, 2009
NBC's Johnny Miller noted the unpredictability of match play Saturday. "Should there be more match play events? Well, the reason why there aren't is that at this point Tiger's gone, Phil's (Mickelson) gone, Vijay's (Singh gone), Camilo's (Villegas) gone, Sergio's (Garcia) gone, Adam Scott. That's why there aren't more of them." Hard to argue with that. (USA Today -- Sports)

After Mark Calcavecchia, then tied for the lead in Sunday's PGA Tour Honda Classic, put a shot into the water at No. 15, NBC's Johnny Miller said it was "just a slap in the face.

It could soften the greens enough to permit lower scoring than expected -- remember, a similar rainstorm helped Johnny Miller shoot a final-round 63 and win the 1973 U.S. Open at Oakmont.

Woods awaits, worry-free, at U.S. Open Jun 13, 2007
" And yet, as different as things are between now and then, Woods' play over the past 11 months has brought back memories of him at his most dominant. It hasn't been too long, after all, since 2000, when he won three of four majors and what seemed like every tournament he entered. "Tiger can make three Hall of Fame careers in one person," said Johnny Miller, the lead golf analyst on NBC. Miller shot the lowest closing round in U.S. Open history, a 63 in the '73 Open, also at Oakmont. "He does... (Orlando Sentinel)

Noting NBC's candid Johnny Miller, Trevino suggests he won't be too critical on-air: "Johnny kind of goes overboard, and he's the first to admit he kind of goes overboard. People seem to like it, but I don't know why people like to kick somebody when they're down.". Trevino is more upbeat on CBS' Nick Faldo, who's English: "I don't understand him, but I like him.".

Fox set to shuffle World Series schedule May 14, 2007
What's not to like: NBC's coverage of The Players had great shots from its camera in the bunker at the course's water-encircled 17th hole, excellent audio eavesdropping on players after shots and the usual lively comments from NBC golf team, like Dan Hicks saying "with a name like (Sean) O'Hair, you'd think he'd play quicker." Later, Johnny Miller would make a good point about O'Hair wiggling around before his shots: "He has more moves than kung fu.". Posted. (USA Today -- Sports)
Kroichick: Golf leaves plenty of heart in San Francisco May 3, 2007
" AP Photo/Jeff ChiuWoods and Daly squared off in an AmEx playoff at Harding Park in 2005. That should have come as little surprise, because San Francisco has a long, rich golf history predating Woods' riveting duel with Daly (ultimately decided on the second playoff hole, when Daly missed a 3-foot par putt). The city's board of supervisors took a significant step toward prolonging the heritage Tuesday, approving an agreement with the PGA Tour to bring the 2009 Presidents Cup and four other...

Tiger's presence a make or break Feb 18, 2007
Presumably, the Golf Channel is the home team, but then you find Nick Faldo and Kelly Tilghman, of TGC, mixed in with Johnny Miller, Jim Nantz and various other personnel from NBC and CBS. It all creates sort of muddled viewing. Most surprising of all is that the PGA Tour should marry up with the Golf Channel for 15 years. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution -- Sports)
