i wish the announcers/commentaters, would stop mentioning the money. it's gosh, and quite embarrasing.

embarrasing as in it's too small?

I notice that when they announce the players on BCN from last year's US Open they show the total winnings from the last two years. Most are below the poverty level which makes them qualified for welfare. But at least they are having fun and enjoying themselves.

What Bernie means is that it seems crude and not
refined when they keep talking about money, regardless
of whether it's a small or large amount. In snooker
and tennis and other major sports it's not mentioned,
it's just about the game and that's all.

Hmmm, I thought he meant it was embarrasing because it is so pidily, as well. Heck, look at golf, they brag about their million dollar prizes and appearance fees all the time.

if the prize is that big it's worth the mention
