Fore Right Blog

[edit]

Smiley's golf blog began in June of 2007 and takes a satirical look at the world of golf, with emphasis on the professional ranks. Most of the content is 100% fabricated, though he will occasionally post personal stories or anecdotes.

TV Career

[edit]

Smiley spent four years at the TV sitcom Yes, Dear on CBS, joining the writing staff in his third season. In 2007 he wrote for the short-lived Fox News Channel Show 1/2 Hour News Hour.

Follow The Roar

[edit]

In 2008, Smiley followed Tiger Woods from the gallery for the entirety of Woods' season and wrote a memoir about the adventure. Smiley came up with the idea after following Tiger for the second round of the Target World Challenge in December of 2007. Smiley wrote an article for espn.com about the round, in which Tiger shot a tournament-record 62.
