	Joe Buck and Jim Nantz, sportscasters or corporate shills? - By Robert Weintraub - Slate Magazine
		Nantz is the opposite of screamers like Gus Johnson and Kevin Harlan—he has an internal governor that pulls him back at moments when he should get excited.
		Nantz's wallflower behavior is a result of swallowing the CBS mantra that the analyst—Billy Packer for hoops, Phil Simms for the NFL—is the star.
		One gets the strong feeling that he's in the booth because he plays golf with the right people at CBS, because he can be counted on to get the promos in on time, and because he isn't the type to embarrass the network with racial gaffes.

	Jim Nantz's Hootie pandering hurts Masters, makes him golf's worst announcer Chris Baldwin
		Instead, Nantz chose to wag a press campaign on behalf of Hootie’s Bobby Jones butchery, going from talk show to talk show with the fervor of a reality TV contestant.
		The best had to be when he told Sports Illustrated that the Masters was so determined to have dramatic shots that Augusta’s 16th green funneled balls toward the hole.
		Ever since I can remember, the CBS team, especially Jim McKay in previous years, has kissed up to the blowhards at Augusta who are basking in the glow of a tradition built without their involvement.

		For Nantz and Packer to sit there and bemoan the "injustices" of the 7th and 8th place finishers from power conferences not making the tourney is absurd.
		Mar 13 2006, 05:28 PM The only time I remember Nantz cutting him off was at the very end, when it seemed to me they were having audio feed issues.
