At 6 here, they cut to news from Buffalo, NY. So now I have a choice between fullscreen but real blurry, or a 5" screen. And either way, it keeps stopping for no reason. Tennis is such a no-account sport hereabouts. They'd never do this to Tiger.

It appears most CBS affiliates in the east stuck with local news and programming. Not surprising.
Andy didn't redeem anything in the 3rd. Boy has to control his temper and stop blasting 1st serves as hard as possible when things aren't going his way. Especially when your 2nd serve is weaker than most females.

He did redeem it by gathering himself to win those 2 games. But otherwise, I agree with you, his immaturity was pretty glaring.

I didn't notice Enberg saying anything senile this Open. Maybe I was just lucky with timing, but congrats to whoever upped his Haldol.
