Is the golf season officially underway right now? Are there actual tournaments going on? Didn&#8217;t the 2010 season just end? I swear I just saw something about Steve Stricker tied for the lead in a tournament. <\/p>\n<p>How is this possible? Why would this be happening right now? I think what I&#8217;m saying is, it&#8217;s no wonder there are fewer and fewer people golfing or taking up the game of golf every year. Golf has just about everything going against it right now.<\/p>\n<p>The first problem is; I had no idea there were any tournaments even happening! I&#8217;m sure many of you who are reading this were well-aware that golf was underway. But not me. I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ve made it clear by now I am a very casual golf fan. Playing golf&#8230;sure!  Watching golf&#8230;ehh&#8230;.not so much. But when a golf tournament is competing with the NFL playoffs? I&#8217;m sorry, but out of 100 times, the golf tournament will lose 101. How can the PGA golf season kick-off during the most important time of the largest spectator sport (TV-viewer wise) in the country?! Seriously now&#8230;there is no possible way they are gaining any new viewers. Next thing you know, they&#8217;ll have a final round going on during the Super Bowl!<\/p>\n<p>Second; When exactly did last season end? And when did this season begin? Was there really even an off-season? If so, how long was it&#8230;a month? See? This is another problem. The season is just too damn long and filled with too many meaningless tournaments that don&#8217;t get promoted properly. It&#8217;s like baseball season: Is it really necessary to play for six months then have another month of playoffs? Does it really take 162 games to figure out who belongs in the playoffs? Couldn&#8217;t the same be determined in, say, 100 games? You get kind of psyched up for baseball at the beginning of the year, then it&#8217;s blah for four months before you get excited again for the pennant race. And even though the season is too long, the off-season is long enough to give you a break. In golf&#8230;there almost is no off-season! I&#8217;m sorry but, there has to be a break or you simply get golfed out.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at football again; This is my favorite sport and I watch the NFL at every opportunity. However, I don&#8217;t want the season to be any longer than it is for the simple fact that I don&#8217;t want to be footballed out! We&#8217;ve all heard the expression &#8220;Too much of a good thing.&#8221; Well, golf is a good thing. But too much golf is not. Fewer tournaments make each one matter more. When the tournaments matter, they attract more attention. Therefore, more viewers and more fans.<\/p>\n<p>So what could be done differently? Well, probably a few things. For starters, and I know it&#8217;s not going to sound like a good idea to most but, having fewer tournaments could help. As mentioned earlier &#8211; fewer tournaments equals more meaning.<\/p>\n<p>But what do you do with the down time? We&#8217;ve <a href=\"http:\/\/golfstinks.blogspot.com\/2010\/01\/real-grip-it-and-rip-it.html\">touched on this<\/a> a bit before. Things that are fun and keep the fans interested are always a sure bet. Why not set-up some things such as long-drive tournaments and the like? It&#8217;s not an actual tournament, but it&#8217;s fun and certainly fan-friendly! And just a small exhibition here and there during an off-season of a decent length could do wonders to attract new fans, while still keeping the interest of current ones. <\/p>\n<p>OK, so these are just a couple of silly ideas for the most part, but they are ideas nonetheless.  And let&#8217;s face it, with fewer and fewer rounds of golf being played each year, a change is becoming increasingly necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can someone please help me out with a few things here?
