Someone is going home… Is it ET? No. It’s Big Break IV.
I swear I’m going to TIVO each episode and count how many times I hear “someone is going home.” I was very surprised that I didn’t hear those words in the first episode. In fact it took until half way through the 2nd episode before I heard it.
The first player to be eliminated in BBIV was the Bart Lower. Remember him? He was a competitor in BB2. You could tell he was somber during all the little interview cuts they did throughout the show. Now he’s back to real estate. Good luck.
Harvey Penick (one of the wisest souls in the history of golf) said to watch out for the man with the strange swing. That person would be Tommy Gainey, the “interesting” cat from Bishopville, SC. His swing is awful strange, but his short game looks stellar.
The American team better get it in gear because the Euros are kicking their butts.
