Scott Van Pelt is your voice for the spanking new version of Tiger Woods '10, and the folks at EA Sports have decided to run some ads with the ESPNer. The premise is that SVP wants to be an actual golfer, but only his voice appears in the game. Thus, Tiger carries around a talking cardboard ...

Tiger Woods 2010 Now Includes Scott Van Pelt
Dogs That Chase Cars —

"I said the rough, not the parking lot!" h/t Awful Announcing ...

You heard it here first -- and you'll hear it on golf courses everywhere soon. (Visor tip to Awful Announcing for the video.)

... the point . You’re never going to please everyone anyway. Emphasis ours, obviously. Of course you have an act, Chris. It’s what you do, and it’s why you think people are tuning in to see you. But then, let’s compare this to the goings-on of Scott Van Pelt. Van Pelt was revealed as the announcer for EA SPORTS’ Tiger Woods 2010 golf game, and the game’s promo reel shows precisely why Van Pelt “gets it,” that is, his role in the sports consciousness, as much as Berman doesn’t (via AWFUL ANNOUNCING ): At some point, as the younger generation becomes the dominant purchasing ...
