The "you know you want to" reference was on replay as I recall. I'd also be interested to confirm that the first call was truly live. The pacing was almost too perfect.

I thought the "you know you want to" was for Kutchar's near double eagle on the 15th.

Terry's got it right. Was it live-live? I think so, because we didn't hear a roar from elsewhere beforehand. And Feherty is really good. But when CBS doesn't show Adam Scott's ace on 16 for 17 minutes, I'd have to go back to the tape and listen carefully to be sure.

I love Feherty's commentary, at the Masters and elsewhere. (His writing? Not so much.)

I watched quite a bit of the toonamint "simultaneously" on the TV set and the computer, via the Live feed at Masters.org.

Sometimes, Live was ahead of the TV.

Sometimes, the TV was ahead of Live.

The TV *rarely* acknowledged that the stuff I'd already seen on Live was not, in fact, live on the TV.

That is an interesting point.  I never tried to watch the web and TV.  It sure speaks to how much is riding on the need to package and shine up the broadcast and maybe cross the line of manufacturing;  'spontaneity'?  ;) ::) 8)   <--- note how I can't quite write my emotions into the prose.
