Sunday afternoon-Golf? the Bob Hope Classic? No a 700 Club Telethon!!!!
:grr::mad:

I had finished my chores for the day (we cleaned out the closets this weekend) and was settled in for the final round of golf from sunny and beautiful Southern California. There was about 2 inches of snow on the ground outside with more to come (about 5 inches total) and I had my beverage of choice ready to go and switch on ABC. I don't see any golf....hm.....let me checked what digital cable has for the listing......700 Club Telethon!!!! that can't be right.....let me check the Sunday paper to see when/where the golf tournament is on (maybe switched to ESPN?) no it says the ABC coverage of the final round of the Bob Hope Classic will be televised form 12:35AM-3:35AM MONDAY MORNING!!!!!!!!

In front of me is freakin' Pat Robertson begging for money and showing testimonial of how your money is MIRACULOUSLY double by GOD when you give to Rev.Pat. Woman:"The more I gave the more I saw in my bank account"-she then went on to tell how GOD himself told her to become a certain level member and to give her life over to Rev. Pat.

You have to be freakin' kidding me!!!!

4. He must have paid out the nose
YOu should have seen the scroll at the bottom of the screen

Soandso from Pahusluiska Oklahoma ---$ 50/month Soandso from Ceyean SC-$500 donation

I wanted to see if these places actually existed or if he was just making it look like that many people were giving.

I really couldn't believe it.

3. Man, you can mess with alot of things...
but don't mess with my golf on TV.

There is about 4 inches of snow here, expecting more. I can't see my getting out onto the links until Apr. Watching religion instead of golf is like torture.

Mickelson won that didn't he?

9. Reminds me of a few years ago in West Virginia
Specifically the Davis/Thomas area near Canaan State Park. The local NBC affiliate preempted the entire Wimbledon men's final on July 4th in favor of local religious programming.

Every half hour I was begging for a break (just show me one damn set or double fault!) but no, more senior fatso women singing in a little church.
