Reality Television Event of the Century

I'm not one for reality shows - documentary shows like The Deadliest Catch, yes - but not Survivor, American Idol, The Bachelor-type reality shows. Scott may try to dispute that, but I assure you his information is outdate and irrelevant to this post.

And I really don't like celebrity-based reality shows like Hogan Knows Best or Keeping up with the Kardashians (which I probably just spelled wrong, but consider the show too insignificant to even check). But I do like what the Golf Channel is about to do.

The Golf Channel will be doing a service to manking by having Hank Haney fix Charles Barkley's golf swing. Jim Rome called this "the unstoppable force meeting the immovable object". All you need to know about Haney is that Tiger Woods let him tinker with his swing. And all you need to know about Charles Barkley is that he was on the original USA Basketball "Dream Team"...and his golf swing makes small children cry.

How bad is Sir Charles' swing?

see for yourself:


In fact I'm pretty sure that Tiger Woods blew out his knee watching Chuck's swing.

It doesn't appear that days and times have been released, but when it is, you can bet that for the first time ever, I'll watch an entire program on the Golf Channel.
