Take a look at the picture we’ve got above and that dog is doing his best impersonation of the folks at Turner, Capital One and everyone else who put on this Tiger Woods-Phil Mickelson fiasco.

Good news is we all got it for free — talk about a Pay-Per-View Mulligan!

Here’s our good news in an email from Frontier Communications:

Good news: You will not be billed!

Hi Thomas,

You will not be charged for the November 23rd Pay Per View event “The Match” between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson.

The network carrying the event experienced technical difficulty that affected all TV providers resulting in them offering the event for free.

Don’t go it alone. Frontier has all your entertainment needs covered.

And that folks, means we paid for exactly what that five hours of golf was worth.

ZERO.

So the people who dreamed this up can mull things over in the Dog House and figure out exactly how much money was lost on this one.

Thanks, Capital One.

What’s in your wallet? We can tell you what’s not in your wallet — the money that you were going to charge for this one.
