Adding words to jokes sometimes make the jokes funnier which is why comedians throw in random swear words and can make the baddest joke funny by just adding one word and the way they deliver the joke.
Actually, Fuzzy Zoeller was the only one laughing

I doubt it was deliberate, but it was a bad choice of words for sure. Mentioning he's black is quite unnecessary in that situation, though it was probably just an emotionally charged rant, because the guy isn't currently a fan of Eldrick. I don't think he's racist, but he coulda left one word out of that sentence and been just fine.

If you told me I could only have one TV channel in the house, I'd give everything up and just watch Golf Channel all day long.

edit: Stevie is a jerk. So is Tiger. I just want to watch Tiger play golf without all this high school cowpoop.
