XM has good sports programming : ESPN Radio ESPN News Fox Sports Radio Sporting News Radio NASCAR Radio (apparently just one channel now?) (2006) PGA Tour XM Deportivo (in Spanish) 16 Channels of MLB Coverage (every game) (1 in Spanish) 3 channels each of ACC, Pac-10 and Big Ten sports 3 channels of Big Ten football, men's & women's basketball Home Ice (Hockey coverage) Sirius has: NFL NBA NHL College Sports Soccer Sports Talk (incl ESPN, etc) More Sports "from horse racing to tennis to arena football" NASCAR (coming in 2007) I like the fact that I can get any baseball game on XM. I really would rather watch football on TV. And I'm not that into basketball to listen to a game on the radio anyway, so don't miss that...

Stoopida fockin' game :rolleyes:
Who thought this format up?
Didn't we have one (two years ago, maybe?) where the guys score was what counted?
This "Best Balls" stuff makes it a total crapshoot. Oh, wait...That's what MayCas said.

Even in 3rd he's whining... :rolleyes: There was a game once that was based on player earnings, which was in addition to this game, but that only lasted one season apparently. What's it matter to you anyway, since you're gonna drop out within the month? :p

Complaining is different than whining, BTW. And I have no plans to drop out.........yet, anyway.

Can somebody please explain how this thing works? I finished with a total -10 under par best ball. Plaw finished with a total -10 under par also. DMC finished with a -5 under. Under the overall results, segement 1, has me with 196, Plaw with 171 and DMC with 57. Yet DMC is in 5th place, and Plaw is in 3rd.  What is the 196, 171 and 57 numbers? Don Cardi

Those are the # of points you'd be awarded for the week - last year, they didn't calculate points until Monday, but I guess they wanna show you how you're doing after each day this time... those points will change until the tourny is over...

So this game is based on points, and not on score? In other words even though, after the first day, Plaw's team scored a -10 and I scored a -10, that doesn't count? but the points (197 vs. 171 ) are the ones that do? I'm sorry Geoff. Don Cardi

Daily performance contributes to weekly performance -- how you finish after 4 days of each tournament is what counts, and, you're awarded points based on your percentile standings overall. 98th percentile = 98 points. But this is a "double points" week, so they double it. Capisce?

I just realized Appleby beat Singh in a playoff yet again - and since I had both, I think we should get bonus points for picking the winner & the runner-up. :p

Trying to sneak in a bogus photo and tell us it's JG, huh? That guy is much too young to be JG, plus he's better looking, finger up the nose notwithstanding.

Well, this is the first year of this feature, obviously, but, my guess is that you can store a guy at current value there, if he's not playing, so you could use him another time at the lower value. But, that's just my interpretation of it - I haven't actually applied that theory yet...
