Well, given a choice between poor comments and no sound I would probably go with the former. When you do not hear stomping of feet, ball on the strings, etc.. it robs the show of a significant portion of it's liveliness. As for Bud - his little squeals + little puns (i.e. calling Zivoinovic "the Zagreb Zinger") are pretty unpleasant, but his co-host Dick Enberg sounded especially inapropriate. My favorive commentator would probably be Arthur Ashe - always knowlegeable and appropriate. I vas very amused every time he was trying to guess what kind of serve would a player hit on some critical point... Mike Cherepov
