| Yes, it was fun to watch The King win. It took him 3 birdies in a
row to win a skin. I do get sick of Trevino's mouth sometimes. I
understand his yelling at the marshall (having marshalled him at the
Digital Seniors several times and seeing some marshalls who are
totally clueless as to their duties) but every time the camera was on
him he seemed to be sniffling and moaning and groaning about his cold.
Chi Chi is still the best showman, Arnie is still the King, Jack will
always be the best ever and Lee is the mouth that roared!!

| The really remarkable thing was that Palmer shot a 30 for the back 9.
Not too bad for a guy 62 years young.
I enjoyed both days (but being a Palmer fan, Sunday a wee bit more). I
agree that Trevino's constant chatter gets a little annoying after an
hour or so (must be a lot of fun playing a full round with him if a lot
of mouth gets on your nerves). It was nice that everyone got a few
skins, and nobody pulled a doughnut. I'll even give Vin Scully credit
for one semi-amusing comment ("I had to have my ball retriever
regripped."), though it probably wasn't original. Still, he wins this
month's thundering redundancy award for noting that "Yesterday, Palmer
was having trouble with his approach shots *to the green*." Where else,
Vin? The parking lot?

| I was more irritated by Vin Scully's constant chatter. They ought to
do the next Skin's Game without announcers so we can hear what the
golfers are actually saying. Or they should let CBS do the Skin's
Game. Anything, just don't let Vin Scully get anywhere near the
competition.....

| Scully stinks ! He's an author in search of a poem. I think he's trying
to be Bernard Darwin, but he belongs in Charles Darwin's waiting
room...(Thanks, Dennis Miller). I like Trevino's one liners, but I
think he's insecure and classless. Watch him at a tourney when he tells
a story - if he doesn't get a response, he says "Huh, Huh ?" until
someone laughs or responds. Woe to anyone in the gallery who tries to
engage in repartee with Lee. He cuts the guy off at the knees right
away. His caddy is even worse. Lee is "Low Mexican," but Chi Chi is
"THE MAN !!"

1435.5 | "What'd he say?" | AKOCOA::BREEN | Bill Breen Ako2-3 244-7984 | Wed Jan 29 1992 13:40 | 18 |
| There was an interesting exchange between Nicklaus and Trevino on
Saturday. If I caught it right Lee said "4 just might win this hole
(par)"
Jack then said "Why don't you [sink the putt] and we'll all find
out"
Then I heard Trevino saying "What'd he say, huh?" and finally
stepping up and making the putt.
I got the feeling that Jack can only take so much of Lee's talk.
One thing all four have in common is a tremendous competitive drive
illustrated best by Arnold's comeback on Sunday - I just happened to
hear him interviewed on ESPN Radio on Sat. night and he was quite
disappointed in his showing on Saturday with of course no excuses
period. In fact I cannot recall ever hearing Arnold making excuses.

1435.6 | Another Opinion | SIERAS::MCCLUSKY | | Fri Jan 31 1992 15:45 | 6 |
| Another opinion - I like Lee and have walked 36 with him and had a
ball. Jack is the greatest ever and Arnie is Mr. Class. I can't
understand how 135 lbs. hits it so far, but it is fun to watch Chi Chi!
Mr. Scully is the best sportscaster around.
