When Will Golf Do Something About The "GET IN THE HOLE!" Guy?

In a sport where spitting and cursing by players are controversies that last for weeks, it seems odd that no one says a lot about the guys (and it's always men) who bellow at the top of their lungs just after a player swings: "GET IN THE HOLE!" If we can ask Keegan Bradley not to spit, and condemn Michelle Wie for cursing, can't we get rid of "that" guy?

Some call it part of sports in the modern era. Some say that not wanting it to be a part of golf is being a fuddy-duddy old fashioned fool. Bull. Some things belong in a sport, others don't. Get-In-The-Hole-Guy doesn't belong in golf. While it may be simple over-exuberance on a long putt, it's pretty silly on the tee of a par four or par five.

And it's not original. Nor is it something that many fans enjoy hearing -- ask yourself, do you know a golf fan who says, "that guy is hilarious!" or "I SO have to do that when I go to Augusta this year!" Probably not.

Speaking of originality, Get-In-The-Hole guy did scream out "Boogity! Boogity! Boogity!" at a recent tournament. While it may show that his obnoxiousness has some range and tenor, it's not original: it's what Darrell Waltrip greets the start of a NASCAR race with when the former racing champion is on the microphone covering stock cars for Fox Sports.

Or worse - perhaps Get-In-The-Hole-Guy will discover Andres Cantor, the Argentine futbol announcer who's signature call is infamous. Rather than typing it out, Cantor's unique delivery is best seen by those unfamiliar with him:
