Okay, let's let's start 52 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: with George Kittle. And you know there are a couple 53 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: positions right now in the NFL. When you have a 54 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: star player, it's really easy to do business with them. 55 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: Like the Eagles gave Saquon bark a contract extension after 56 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: giving him a big contract last year, and they didn't 57 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: even have to think long and hard about it. Why 58 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 1: because he plays running back and ultimately it doesn't cost 59 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: that much guaranteed money. George Kittle, who if he stays 60 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: healthy a couple more years, is gonna be one of 61 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: the better players I don't know in the last thirty 62 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: forty years for the forty nine ers, and clearly they 63 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: have had a lot of Hall of Fame, high end 64 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl level players. But when they extended Trent Williams 65 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: last year and they got into a contract hold out 66 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: staring contest. A couple of years ago, nick Bosa held out. 67 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: They've had Ayuk hold out And I wouldn't put Ayuk 68 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: on the level of Trent and Nick Bosa. But these 69 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: contracts are very complicated. You know, Trent Williams at thirty 70 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: five years old wanted like sixty five million dollars guaranteed. 71 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk was catching seventy five balls a year and 72 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: got seventy five million dollars guaranteed. Nick Bosa at the 73 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: time got like one hundred and twenty million million dollars guaranteed. 74 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: That these contracts are enormous. Yet when you play tight end, 75 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: it's like, here's forty million dollars guaranteed. You're a six 76 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: time Pro bowler, multiple time All Pro. Here you go, 77 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, sign on the dotted line and you 78 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,119 Speaker 1: get such a discount. And the reality is with guys 79 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: like George Kittle, and I would say this iteration of 80 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers in twenty twenty five for the 81 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: next couple of years, the heartbeat of the team when 82 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: everyone's healthy is George Kittle, and is Fred Warner. 83 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 2: And those are the type guys. 84 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: That winning teams build their team around one they do 85 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: everything well, like George Kittle is a throwback at the position, 86 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: and listen, I have nothing against these tight ends that 87 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: do not block, that are dominant receivers. That's their skill set, 88 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: and good teams utilize players positive attributes. Most guys, even 89 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: if they try to block, cannot why most people can't 90 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: even slow down Miles Garrett, TJ. Watt these type guys. 91 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: But George is a great blocker, and he's also a 92 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: dominant player with the ball in his hands, and there's 93 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: a contact level to the way in which he plays, 94 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: which honestly sometimes is like George just go out of bounds, 95 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: but he will turn down going out of bounds to 96 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: look up field to try to take out three guys, 97 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: and that sets the tone for the team. And there's 98 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: a positive energy in which he brings. I've seen him 99 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: practice for six seven years. Obviously he's one of the 100 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: frontmen in terms of giving press conferences, and there's just 101 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: an overall positive energy that the guy brings to your team. 102 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: And I think Rob Gronkowski did this for a long 103 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: period of time, and I think he's the closest version 104 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: of that in terms of being a total package. You know, 105 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: Travis is a different type player, right, dominant receiver, doesn't 106 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: bring much as a blocker, but just in terms of 107 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: positive energy and someone that the Chiefs have relied on 108 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: to be a heartbeat of the squad, like it's kind 109 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: of important, and the type player that ever everyone in 110 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: the organization looks up to, the way he practices, the 111 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: way he works, how serious he takes football. 112 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: How competitive he is. 113 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: And here's the thing, like his competitiveness, like a lot 114 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: of elite players in the NFL is unreal on Sunday, 115 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: but being a great player in the NFL is about 116 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: Monday through Saturday. How hard you work, how serious you 117 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: take your preparation, how serious you take your recovery. And 118 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: that's what these teams don't hesitate to break off. And 119 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: it's much easier a lot like Saquan when the numbers 120 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: are minuscule compared to some of these other positions, which 121 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 1: you can't convince me that. Obviously, justin Jefferson and Jamar 122 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: Chase one hundred percent totally understand their value is bigger 123 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: than George Kittle. But George Kittle will make way less 124 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: guaranteed money than Brandon Ayuk. I don't get it. And 125 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: you can tell me, well, that's the market, that's the position. Well, 126 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: they both play on the same team, and one guy 127 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: is a better player, and he was a better player 128 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: even in Brandon. 129 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: I Yuke's breakout year. 130 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: So I feel for these guys like Fred Warner and 131 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: George Kittle that see players who are good players get 132 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: all this money and you go, but I'm better And 133 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: if all positions were equal, this would not be a 134 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: fair fight. So the forty nine ers now listen, there's 135 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: risk that comes with this. He's an older player. He's 136 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: been banged up over the course of his career. Even 137 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: though he's been really durable these last several years. The 138 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: way in which he plays is conducive to taking a 139 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: lot of shots and taking a lot of physical punishments. 140 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,119 Speaker 1: Now like this is the pros and one thing Kyle 141 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: does a really good job of is manage his elite 142 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: players in practice. I mean, he's not asking George to 143 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: lay it all on the line in the middle of August. 144 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: But they're very dependent on this guy in his career. 145 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: I would say change back dramatically for the better. Once 146 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: Perdy got installed and has been a big reason obviously 147 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: over the course of Kyle Shanan's career for the forty 148 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: nine ers offensive dominance, not just in the run game 149 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: where he's an elite blocker and basically like a six 150 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: offensive lineman, but his just game changing plays in the 151 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: past game. And I'm just as a fan of football, 152 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: even if I wasn't you know form, you know, from 153 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: northern California and rooted and watched the Niners as closely 154 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: as I have my entire life. George Kittle's everything that 155 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: I love about football. Uh, speaking about, you know, quarterback play, 156 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: I'm guilty of this, and especially during the draft, it's 157 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: easy to become enthralled with the quarterbacks because guys get 158 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 1: drafted in the sixth and seventh round and they're some 159 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: of the most famous guys in the draft. Will Howard 160 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: was just the starting quarterback for the team that won 161 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: the national championship. Riley Leonard was just the starting quarterback 162 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: for freaking Notre Dame that rattled off some of the 163 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 1: biggest wins I would say of this century. In the program, 164 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: and those guys go late in the draft, so we 165 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: talk so much about obviously, those guys, at least we 166 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: acknowledge like you get drafted in the six or seventh round, 167 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: you're starting as a backup. 168 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: But sometimes we talk about guys. 169 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: After the first round is like this guy might be. 170 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: His starter, this guy, keep an eye on this guy. 171 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: Well, I started looking around the league because I'm guilty 172 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: of it too. It's like, well, Jaln Milroe, if his 173 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: accuracy improves a little bit, you know, Mike McDonald, they 174 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: only got you know, Sam Donald, they get out after 175 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: a year. He's been around Lamar Jackson. I'm not comparing 176 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: him to Lamar Jackson because Lamar is obviously a better thrower, 177 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: even at the same point in time in their career. 178 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 2: But it's like, clearly, you draft this guy high, you 179 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 2: like him. 180 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: Look around the NFL, most guys like because I think 181 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: Perty has really changed the conversation. It's like you found 182 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: him in the seventh round. 183 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 2: He's an all time outlier. 184 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: The reason we talk about Tom Brady pickne forever is 185 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: because that's never happening again, Like that's not normal. Look 186 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: at his direct rival was the number. 187 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 2: One overall pick. 188 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: Look at some of his peers also during the time 189 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: in which he played Aaron Rodgers first round pick Ben 190 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger first round pick, Philip Rivers first round pick. They 191 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: had some wars with Baltimore and Joe Flacco first round 192 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: pick toward the end of his career, Patrick Mahomes first 193 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: round pick. And then I just looked in the NFL, 194 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: like look at the AFC. Every single quarterback that made 195 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs last year first round pick, most of them 196 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: really high pick. Josh Allen top ten pick, Patrick Mahomes 197 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: top fifteen pick, obviously, CJ. Stroud, Justin Herbert. I mean, 198 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: these guys were top picks. Bo Nicks last year fell 199 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: in the draft and wod he go twelfth? So and 200 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: now you look, they've added cam Ward. The New England 201 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: Patriots have a really high pick, the Jags have a 202 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: really high pick. Even some of these teams that have 203 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: new quarterbacks, like the New York Jets, where did Justin 204 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: Fields get drafted? Tua first round pick whoever ends up 205 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: starting for the Colts. Both guys were top six picks. 206 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: It's pretty insane that the Bengals missed the playoffs given 207 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: how good their offense was. Joe Burrow was the number 208 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: one overall pick. But we know this, Like the AFC's 209 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 1: quarterback centric led by the elites. Well, what about the 210 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: the NFC, because it's like Brock Purty late late seventh rounder, 211 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: last pick of the draft, Jalen Hurts, second rounder. He 212 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: wally pipped Carson Wentz, who was a first round pick. 213 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: And I would say that's pretty crazy story about Jalen 214 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: Hurts because you look at the rest of the guys 215 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: in which he's competing against. I think sometimes Jared Goff, 216 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: the way we discuss him, it's like Cousins or dak 217 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: Jared Goff was the number one overall pick. Stafford Well, 218 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: they were traded for each other obviously, also the number 219 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: one overall pick. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Baker Mayfield the number 220 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: one overall pick. The Minnesota Vikings, who last year started 221 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold and he had a great year, was the 222 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: number three overall pick. This year they're going to transition 223 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: to JJ McCarthy their first round pick. 224 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. 225 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: The Green Bay Packers are led by Jordan Love, first 226 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 1: round pick and he was a late first round pick. 227 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: The Commanders, who's everyone's buying stock on number two overall pick. 228 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: My point is I'm not gonna go team by team. 229 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,479 Speaker 1: Most of these guys Michael Pennix, Bryce Young, Caleb Williams. 230 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: Like what Dak Prescott and specifically Brock Purty are is 231 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: their outliers if you want to find your quarterback. And 232 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: this is why the Browns made the trade, this is 233 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: why the Rams traded back. You know, if you're going 234 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: to get a franchise quarterback, ninety percent of the time 235 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: he's going to come in the first round. Because if 236 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: you look around the league, the teams that make the 237 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: playoffs and even the teams that don't with the young guys, 238 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: most of these guys are first round picks. If you 239 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: are forced to start a third, four to fifth rounder, 240 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: typically it doesn't go well. Typically you are looking to 241 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: transition really, really quick. So it's exciting when these guys 242 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 1: get drafted. Dylan Gabriel in the third, Jalen Milroe in 243 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: the third, Tyler Shuck who's thirty seven years old in 244 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: the second round pick. Guess what, most of these guys 245 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: are not going to be starting quarterbacks in the NFL. 246 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 3: Blending Vice's signature dynamic storytelling with the high octane world 247 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 3: of sports, Vice Sports brings an exciting and diverse range 248 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 3: of programming that goes beyond the game.

Character red flags come in a lot of 259 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: different shapes and sizes. It's easy when a guy like 260 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: Baker may Field gets arrested in Fayeteville, Arkansas, it's like 261 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: whoa or a guy gets a DUI right before the draft, 262 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: Or you've had issues with women that are tangible, concrete, 263 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: like they have had an incident, and then there are 264 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: just issues that are kind of hard to quantify. A 265 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: lot of teams are hesitant to just leak information because 266 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: it feels like they're shitting on a guy. But it's like, yeah, 267 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: we just it hasn't been a smooth transition during this 268 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: guy's time in the program. 269 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: For a couple of years. 270 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: Not an awful guy, but not the best guy, not reliable. 271 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: We got to be on him to study. And you 272 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: always ask yourself, and this is what scouting departments do. 273 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: Is it just maturity? Is it just he's young. I 274 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 2: I'm sure, like many. 275 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: Of you, needed to grow up a lot at eighteen, nineteen, 276 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one years old. 277 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 2: And I, like many of you, was not. 278 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: A future first, second, or third round pick in the 279 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: NFL draft. So I completely understand how some of these 280 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: guys it's a major question mark. And the thing is 281 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: you never know. Sometimes you get a guy like this 282 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: is one of my favorite stories since I've been. 283 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: Doing this is the Honey Badger. Now. 284 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: I think we look at weed a lot different now 285 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: than we did ten years ago. When I was in 286 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: high school, you had to go behind the burger king. 287 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: It was actually the McDonald's. The burger king there. It 288 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: was in the shopping center. The McDonald's like backed up 289 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: to this car dealership and this empty dirt lot. It's 290 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: usually where you'd meet the weed dealer. Now they arrive 291 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: to your front door and you give them a credit 292 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: card any. 293 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 2: Door dash it. So times have changed. 294 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: But the honey Badger got kicked out of LSU for 295 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: the synthetic weed, and most people had him as a 296 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: major red flag. It's why he was one of the 297 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: best players in college football, if not the top two 298 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: or three program at the time and ends up going 299 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: in the third round. And since then he's been a 300 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: team captain everywhere he's been as Bruce Arians and Patrick 301 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: Peterson once said, he's the heartbeat of our team. That's 302 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: when he was young. Then he went to the Texans, 303 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: he went to the Chiefs. I remember I had a 304 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: buddy with the Chiefs. 305 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: He's like, he's my favorite player on the team. This 306 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: is when they had Patrick Mahomes. They fucking love the guy. 307 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: So you never know, and we have a lot of 308 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: stories that go the opposite way. You know, something weird 309 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: happened and then things stay weird. So you never know 310 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: how human beings are going to mature. But a lot 311 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: of teams, if they have a young squad, if they 312 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: have an impressionable squad, they're hesitant to bring those guys 313 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: in the locker room. It's a huge advantage for good 314 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: teams like the Ravens. They can take on problems because 315 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: they are equipped with the guys they already have in 316 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: the locker room. Same with the chiefs Andy Reid can 317 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: take a guy. The two guys he drafted made some 318 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: teams uncomfortable. He doesn't hesitate, why because what are you 319 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: gonna do? Act like an idiot. It's like, well, Travis Kelsey, 320 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Creed Humphrey, I mean Kolowskis McDuffie, Like, they 321 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: got a bunch of high level dudes who have rings. 322 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: So you're just gonna like show up late. It's not 323 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: gonna fly. It's why so many teams and Jalen Carter 324 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: was plummeting down the draft board. He was the best 325 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: player in the draft. No one even disputed that. You 326 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: could argue he's been the best most talented player in 327 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: a draft the last three years non quarterback. I actually 328 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: might not even be close. He would have been obviously. 329 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: I think cam Ward goes this year no matter what, 330 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: because how desperate the Titans were for a quarterback. But 331 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: he would have been the easiest number two pick in 332 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: recent memory if the off the field. But there was 333 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: an issue where someone dies in a car. There are 334 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,919 Speaker 1: already other issues that there's like make teams uncomfortable. 335 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 2: The Eagles, who. 336 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: Were equipped with Brandon Graham, Fletcher Cox, Jason Kelce who 337 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: literally were just gonna be around him every day at 338 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: practice because O line, D line, and obviously the D 339 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 1: line when they spend time together. It was like, I 340 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: think we're gonna be Okay. It's a risk, but it's 341 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: a risk worth taking. And we've equipped our team with 342 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: a bunch of high level cats. And it's actually, like 343 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: we talked about Fred Warner and Kittle, because of the 344 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: positions they play, in Saquon Barkley, they don't cost nearly 345 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: as much as like second tier wide receivers or second 346 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: tier I mean the Chiefs, who I like the player, 347 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: but signed the forty nine ers backup tackle and gave 348 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: him fifteen million dollars a year. That's the going rate. Like, 349 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: that's just what it costs, you know, if you just 350 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 1: want like an. 351 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: Average wide receiver, like I. 352 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: Think what the Jags give Diami Brown ten million dollars, 353 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: I mean, would google his production over the course of 354 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: his career. So you just like the cost of certain 355 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: positions are just extremely expensive. 356 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: I need some backyard. 357 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: Furniture right now, the shittiest stuff, I mean, and we 358 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: bought originally some bad stuff. It's completely broken down. Was 359 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: not cheap. You want decent stuff, You're like, it's gonna cut. 360 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: It's got how much for a chair, how much for 361 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: an outdoor couch? 362 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 2: It blows your mind. But that's if you want it. 363 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 2: That's what it costs. If you want a. 364 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: Pass rusher in the open market, you gotta give Milton Williams, 365 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: who who played I think fifty percent of the snaps again, 366 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 1: let me repeat fifty percent of this next to the 367 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: best young defensive tackle in the NFL. 368 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 2: It got twenty six million dollars a year. 369 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: I mean, even the Panthers who wanted them badly were like, yeah, 370 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: we're out. 371 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: That's kind of crazy. And the Patriots knew it. They 372 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 2: just had to overpay again him. 373 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: And right now, some of the best team's big advantages. 374 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: They can take some swings on character because they're equipped 375 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,239 Speaker 1: for it, and a lot of the bad teams have 376 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 1: to pass on it. And it's why like when some 377 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: of the bad teams, you know, I think people were 378 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: uncomfortable with the Tennessee pass rusher peers, not like super 379 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: bad guy, but just some things that in the scouting 380 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: community just you know, raise alarms, right, and I think 381 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 1: in that situation, like, are the Atlanta Falcons equipped to 382 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: handle that a team full of young cats who have 383 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: never won anything, I'd say no. And last, but not least, 384 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by this is college football. I mean, last 385 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: year Michigan had thirteen players drafted, and then they had 386 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: a god awful season this year relative to their standard 387 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: because their quarterback play might as well have had me playing. 388 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: Still had what three guys go in the top fifteen. 389 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean, their talent that Harbaughs assembled was eye opening. 390 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: And then Ohio State goes on the run. They have 391 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: fourteen players drafted that lead the country. Their entire front 392 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: seven essentially was drafted, their entire defensive line. You know, 393 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: their star receiver who's not even the best receiver on 394 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: the team, and probably the third receiver on the team 395 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: because sophomore who's gonna be I forget his name, but 396 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: he will be drafted next year, more likely in the 397 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 1: first round. And obviously Jeremiah Smith. And they had a 398 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: left tackle who's injured get drafted in the first round. 399 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: On top of multiple running backs. And this is the thing, 400 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: and we're going to argue about this till we're blue 401 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: in the face. But we want to see the most 402 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: talented teams in the playoffs because as we've seen over 403 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: the course of the Final four and now as we've 404 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,239 Speaker 1: morphed into this, if you don't have a lot of 405 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 1: NFL talent, you don't have a shot. I mean, what 406 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: we saw with SMU last year, like we don't want 407 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: to see anymore. And you look, Ohio State led the 408 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: country in draft picks. Georgia was second, Texas was third, 409 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: Oregon was fourth, and the separation for college football there 410 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 1: always has been. 411 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 2: But it's like you. 412 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 1: Never truly know, and listen, it's football. In a one 413 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: game scenario. Anything can happen, and that does happen during 414 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: the season, right especially like Week two, Week three, you 415 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: never know a big upset can happen. I do think 416 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,439 Speaker 1: it's going to be much more difficult in the first 417 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,719 Speaker 1: round of the playoffs. Usually get two or three weeks off, 418 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: the best team has the home playoff game, and you're 419 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: just at a. 420 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 2: Huge, huge disadvantage. 421 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: So listen, I'm an Ohio State hater, not because I 422 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: don't think the program is elite, Not because I don't 423 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: think that program isn't setting the bar in terms of 424 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: NFL talent. 425 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 2: I just need someone to root against, you know. 426 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: And I was a Jim Harbaugh guy. He hated Ryan Day. 427 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: Not the biggest chipcare and I. 428 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 2: Just rooted against him. 429 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: But I do appreciate and have to acknowledge how well 430 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: run they are and they listen. The one thing Ryan 431 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: Day has done since the moment, and this is where 432 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: we have seen other guys fall off a cliff. We 433 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 1: saw it with Helfridge and chip Kelly. Chip Kelly took 434 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: it from Bellotti and he took it the next step 435 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: up at Oregon, and then chip Kelly leaves. They hire 436 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: Health Fridge, and for a couple of years because they 437 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: were rolling, they stayed good and then over the course 438 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: of a couple more fell apart. And you see it 439 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: with Dan Lanning, like Mario, not a great coach, he 440 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: could recruit. Landing gets there a better coach, but he 441 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: maintains the recruiting and that program is going to be 442 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: consistently in the top two or three moving forward, right, 443 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: And obviously Kirby smart and what Jim harbaughd accomplished and 444 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: Ryan Day, Sark has blown me away. You know the 445 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: difference between Sark and Ryan Day is Ryan Day took 446 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: over a program that was rolling once you know, Urban 447 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: tapped out with the hard issues after his wide receiver 448 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: coach was doing some weird shit. Stark took over a 449 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: program three or four years ago that was a joke, 450 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: like they did not have much talent, they were not 451 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: getting guys drafted. Now, he's always been a good recruiter, 452 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 1: but the game change when nil came into play. And 453 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: obviously Texas has the money, but they are going to 454 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: be right there with Ohio State and Oregon as a 455 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: major factor because of their checkbook and obviously his ability 456 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: to impact the quarterback. But when I see these four teams, 457 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 1: I do think that Michigan TBD TBD because you know, 458 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: filling the shoes of Jim Harbaugh. Like is he more 459 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: likely to be Ryan Day and keep it rolling or 460 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: is he more likely to be Mark Helfrich. I would 461 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: say that's a coin flip right now. And I know 462 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: they bought the quarterback, but I thought Dylan Riola I 463 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: was sold and maybe. 464 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 2: I bought it a little bit. It was like next 465 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes and I watched him. 466 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 1: Plays like is he even that good? It's one thing 467 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: with these transfer portal quarterbacks. It's another thing with eighteen 468 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: year old kids. That's like, this guy's gonna be like 469 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes meets Josh Allen and then you're watching him, 470 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: it's like, why are they losing to Iowa right now? 471 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 2: This kid looks. 472 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: Awful, So you never know, and I just think get 473 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: ready for the You know, the college football Playoff was 474 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: supposed to bring in some new variables, almost like the 475 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: NCAA Tournament. Well, what do we see out of the 476 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: NCUBA tournament. Top four seeds were in the final four, 477 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: and I think we're gonna consistently get that in the 478 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: college football Playoff moving forward, because the talent discrepancy is 479 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: only going to widen.

But I've kind of been combining it 522 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: with the football stuff. So if you're listening on the 523 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: audio version, this will be the second half of the podcast. 524 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 2: Obviously, if you're watching. 525 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: This, this will just be talking about golf for a 526 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 1: little bit, because you know, there's a big golf tournament 527 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 1: this week with Scotti Scheffler in it, and I do 528 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: think there's some pressure to win. We had a big 529 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: caddy news today. You know, Max Homer had broken up 530 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: with Joe Griner within the last month, and then he 531 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: goes on the bag two weeks ago for JT at 532 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: RBC and wins and then today there was an announcement 533 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 1: that he's got a new bag. And then we try 534 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: to do this whenever we do a go lo at 535 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: go lo pod. Because we do the Instagram mail bag 536 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: for football, I like to include one for golf as well, 537 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: but I like to separate it. So at golopod. At 538 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 1: golopod is the Instagram. If you have any golf questions, 539 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: we will bang out a bunch today. So just firing 540 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: those dms. They're wide open and fire me any question, 541 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: any thoughts that you have on your game, on the 542 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: pro game, on just shit anything, So firing there. I 543 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 1: did want to start with this, the CJ Cup, the 544 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: Byron Nelson at TPC Craig ranch Is this week. I mean, 545 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: these guys, it's one of those tournaments that, like me 546 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: and you would be like the Putt putt version. They're 547 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: shooting anywhere between twenty two and twenty six under. A 548 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, I think Jason Day won it 549 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: twenty three under. So these guys, these guys are good 550 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: at golf, and if the course is not that hard, 551 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: they will annihilate it. Hell you give them a hard 552 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: course and the conditions aren't up I would say fifteen 553 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,479 Speaker 1: under on a given week feels minimum. I do think 554 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: there is some pressure with how well Rory season is going. 555 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: And he's won three times obviously including the Masters, and 556 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: no one's really played better golf this year than Rory 557 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: McElroy when you look at after the Masters last year, 558 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: there was a ton of momentum for Scotti coming in 559 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: to the PGA Championship and then he got arrested on Friday, 560 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: and still he managed to shoot I think what sixty 561 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: seven or was that Thursday? It was either Thursday. I 562 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: think it was Friday because he was playing the morning 563 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: round on Friday when it was raining. But last year 564 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: he had this magical season. But I do think the 565 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: Majors were a little underwhelming when you factor he won 566 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: the Masters again, He's probably gonna win the Masters like 567 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: three or four times in his life. I mean, he 568 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: doesn't even play that well in the Masters. 569 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 2: He top tens. 570 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: So I mean this year, at one point you look up, 571 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: it's like, could Scotty get. 572 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 2: Into the playoff? 573 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: Like where does scottis chefer coming from? So it's about 574 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: playing well in the PGA, in the US Open and 575 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: the British which he feels like the type player that 576 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: should win four or five majors and win several of 577 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: the majors, right, And I don't love betting guys that 578 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: are super high favorites. It's why I got cold feet 579 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: with Rory at the Masters, and I'm kicking myself. I 580 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: thought about going all in, but it's like you just 581 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: you get boned pretty quick at plus six fifty odds. 582 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 2: And then you know he won it and you're. 583 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: Like, gosh, well, I regret that one Scottish chef for 584 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: going in this weekend is plus two to eighty, which 585 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: is insane. Gambling was I don't know where Phil was 586 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: making his golf bets in the early two thousands, but 587 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: it would have been much more difficult. You had to 588 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: know the right people like Billy Walters to get involved 589 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: in those markets. Obviously. Now it's with our friends at DraftKings. 590 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: It's very very easy, and we have data now over 591 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: the last three or four years. 592 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 2: Like, you know, you are. 593 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: A really good player if you're ten to one to 594 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: win a golf tournament and you're playing against one hundred. 595 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 2: And fifty other guys. 596 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: Scotti Scheffler is currently plus two to eighty. I mean 597 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: that's freaking insane. 598 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: And I kind of like it. 599 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: He hasn't. He didn't play this event last year. Now, 600 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: part of it was he won the Masters and then 601 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: he won the RBC the next week, so he took 602 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: a couple weeks off before the PGA. I do wonder 603 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: if he feels desperate. It's the wrong word, but just 604 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: in need of like a mojo victory. You look at 605 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: the strength of field. 606 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: In this tournament. It ain't great. 607 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Jordan Spieth is the second favorite. I think 608 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: at eighteen to one. You got guys like Sun JM. 609 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: Tell me the last time Sun JM won a golf 610 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: tournament and tell me what that tournament was. You'd be 611 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: hard pressed to figure that out one out. 612 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 2: So like, this is not. 613 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: Xander and you know the normal and Rory and the 614 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: normal cast of characters. The JT's their battle in this week. 615 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: I do think Scotty Scheffler wins. He played it two 616 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: years ago. He finished fifth, but he was only three 617 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: shots off the lead when Jason Day wanted at twenty 618 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: three under. 619 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 2: He finished at twenty. 620 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: I am going to have exposure on Scotti Scheffler to 621 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: win it, probably an uncomfortable amount of money, because that's 622 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: what you have to bet to. 623 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 2: Uh. 624 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: You know, I'm approaching like a football game, what I 625 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: would bet if I liked the team, just straight up 626 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: against another. That's how I viewed Scotti Scheffler this weekend. 627 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: Against the field. I think he wins plus two eighty 628 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: again bold moving golf, but I think that's the play. 629 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, A couple of weeks ago, we had been 630 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: on Justin Thomas for this year. He had been playing really, 631 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: really good golf. The only reason I wasn't more all 632 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: over him when it came to the Masters because I'd 633 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: been burned by him before. So it was one of 634 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: those where it's like I was a big believer in 635 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas. He had I think he had three top 636 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: ten finishes going into the Masters, but I'd seen that 637 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: song and dance and to me, like he might win 638 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: it one day. I will not be on that. It 639 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: just feels like one of those course fits that is 640 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: just not for him. But like the way he was playing, 641 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: it's like, this guy's. 642 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 2: Gonna win a golf tournament. Now. Did I think he 643 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 2: was gonna win with the RBC? I don't know. 644 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: That tournament can be weird obviously was a loaded field 645 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: beside Rory, and you know, it turned out to be 646 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: basically a match play event down the stretch between him 647 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: and Andrew Novak, who I guess is pretty online and 648 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: a lot of people like him and seems like a 649 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: really really good player. But JT wins an extra holes, 650 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: hits a long putt. As he told Joe Griner when 651 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: he was walking up, you know, I've never really hit 652 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: a long walk off putt to win a golf tournament. 653 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: And he just won his sixteenth PGA event, which is 654 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: pretty insane. I mean he's already multiple majors, fifteen plus wins. 655 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a Hall of Famer for his career. 656 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 1: End of today kind of when you look at the 657 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: big picture, it's not like he's forty two years old, he's 658 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: thirty two. If he could get to twenty plus wins 659 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: and win another major, like pretty historic stuff by Justin Thomas, 660 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: really cool moment and a guy who now I don't 661 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: think there was that much question before the RBC. 662 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 2: I mean one Locke ryder Cup. 663 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: I think he was one of the more polarizing guys 664 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,719 Speaker 1: two years ago, and rightfully so. The way that all 665 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: went down, now it's like, you want Justin Thomas on 666 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: this team. I think the only question mark is like 667 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: what about his boy? What about his running mate? Like 668 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: is jordan' spe still good? Justin Thomas definitely is. But 669 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 1: the big news that weekend was his caddie was out 670 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: because he had a back injury, and he wins with 671 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: Joe Griner, Max homes old guy, Scott Stale guy, and 672 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: after the event, because I thought, well, I don't know 673 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: the relationship between JT and his current caddie, but anytime 674 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: you win for the first time in years, it's a 675 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: really big deal. Actually in the fashion which he won it, 676 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: and as he hits the putt in South Carolina, you 677 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: see Grinder, you know, kind of behind him throw the pin. 678 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 2: It was a sweet moment. 679 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: It was cool, and I just assume, like I just 680 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: bet that he goes with this guy moving forward. 681 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 2: Wouldn't blame him. 682 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: And then he announced its like no, like, my guy's healthy, 683 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 1: he'll be back, and Grinder's not gonna be my full 684 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: time caddy. And then today, you know, sometimes when I'm 685 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: driving around, I'm a big serious XM guy. Love my 686 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: Mad Dog Radio, like my Channel eighty five, which a 687 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: lot of times, like Pro Football Talk eighty six. Sometimes 688 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: just NBA Radio, but it's got some old heads to 689 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: just talk a bunch of shit PGA Radio, and I 690 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: listened to it a lot, especially when Sleeves and Colt Nohost. 691 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: I think my time is ten to noon, maybe it's 692 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: nine to eleven. I don't know the exact time, but 693 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm in the car a lot when 694 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: those guys are on. And Colt came out and said, like, 695 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: I got some crazy breaking news, and Drew was like 696 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: what he was like, Colin Morrikawa has fired as caddy 697 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: and he is going to hire Joe Grinder full time. Now, 698 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: you know, Max Holmer and Colin Morrikawa to cal Bears, 699 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: they are different ages. They they didn't play together, but 700 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: two years ago, once Dustin left for Live, they became 701 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 1: a combination in the team events, right, So they played 702 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: together in the President's Cup, so Marikawa who clearly just 703 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: has a relationship because they played together, or I mean 704 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: they went to the same college, so that just kind 705 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 1: of bonds you, I don't care who you are. Then 706 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,280 Speaker 1: they started playing together in these team events, and obviously 707 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: Max for a period of time is one of the 708 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 1: better players right there with Colin. They just know each 709 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 1: other pretty well. And when you see this, it's. 710 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 2: Like, I get it. 711 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: Sometimes in business you got to be pretty cold blooded. 712 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: And I understand Colin hasn't won in a couple of years, 713 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: but he has been really good and he has been 714 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 1: making a ton of money. And the success that he 715 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: had with with JJ as current caddy, well, I guess 716 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 1: no longer was pretty unreal. I mean, they won a 717 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,760 Speaker 1: couple of majors together. They have made so much freaking money. 718 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: And I would imagine more information on this eventually leaks 719 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 1: or comes out, but whenever I have, whenever you see 720 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,720 Speaker 1: a headline of like they have decided to part ways, 721 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: that feels like when the interviewer asked Belichick, it's like, 722 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: you know, Robert Kraft said you were fired, and Belichick 723 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,760 Speaker 1: was like, I wasn't fired. 724 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 2: I quit. 725 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: It was mutual, Like no, no, Bill, you were fired. 726 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: They paid you to go away, which is a badge. 727 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 2: Of honor in society. 728 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: You were paid twenty million dollars not to work, aka 729 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:41,479 Speaker 1: the American dream. But you don't quit or leave calling 730 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:42,479 Speaker 1: more cows back. 731 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: So it was clear. 732 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 1: You know, Marikawa, who's been in the news a little 733 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,359 Speaker 1: this year, like fighting the media and refusing to talk. 734 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 2: I mean, this is. 735 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: Business, so I don't listen. You gotta make only you 736 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: know truly that relationship. But I think most people would 737 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: say if you, unless you have the inside knowledge, would 738 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,479 Speaker 1: be like, this is a pretty cold blooded move, even 739 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 1: if you could argue like Joe Grinder probably one of 740 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: the better caddies you know on the PGA tour and 741 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: a guy that most people thought two weeks ago, like 742 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 1: JT just hire him full time. So like from a 743 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: in a vacuum, not that crazy you would want Joe 744 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: Grinder on your back, but when you factor in like 745 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: how much success those two guys have had. 746 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 2: Pretty nuts. 747 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 1: But I guess when you're in the caddy world that's 748 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 1: kind of the uh. You know, you're at the whim 749 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 1: of the player and if he ever has an issue 750 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 1: with you, you know, you think about wherever you work 751 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: and whatever you do for a living, how you know 752 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 1: you just careful the way you treat and your reaction 753 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: to whoever your you know, superior is the guy that 754 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: owns the company, whoever hired you. I can't even imagine 755 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: the you know, the superiority that the player holds over 756 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: the caddy. Even if you become really really good friends, 757 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: and obviously we. 758 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 2: Have some of those. We had that with Max and Joe. 759 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: I think you have that with Joel, Damon and Gino. Uh. 760 00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, like you know, 761 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: Stevie Williams, I'm pretty sure it was Tiger's best man 762 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: in his wedding, and Stevie was like, after Tiger took 763 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: that seven iron to the face, like he fired me. 764 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: You know, it's bones and Phil had a pretty ugly 765 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,760 Speaker 1: public breakup. I mean, these things happen in this sport, 766 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: and it's pretty crazy, especially now with how much money 767 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: is on the line for the player. Let's get some 768 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: questions at golopod. At golopod is the Instagram here we go. 769 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 1: Not a paid sponsor, just a Bryson fan. He's tearing 770 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: up this course right now. First time really tuning in. 771 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: This was when did this happen? 772 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 2: This was this week? 773 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: The broadcast is really solid, no commercial shotguns, start with 774 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: virtual virtually no interruptions, just major winner to major winner 775 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: with Ferrety commentating all to say this this thing is 776 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: a lot better watch than I thought. Give it a 777 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: try side by side with the website. I've watched it, 778 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: like just in terms of if a guy's playing well, 779 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 1: it can be enjoyable to just watch a high level 780 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: player play golf, right, whether it's Jaukee Neeman, whether it's 781 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: Bryce and d Chambeau, whether it's Phil whoever DJ when 782 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 1: he first got there, Rom, they're good at golf, playing 783 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: golf on television, like it's cool to watch. My issue 784 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: with it, and the same thing for the PGA Tour. 785 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: The reason I watched the PGA Tour is because, like 786 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 1: there are real stakes, like winning a tournament gets you 787 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: into the majors. Winning a tournament if you were Andrew 788 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: Novak and you beat Justin Thomas two weeks ago in 789 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: the RBC, has real implications. 790 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 2: Jaukee Neeman wins again, what does that mean? 791 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 1: I just my issue with this, Like why have I 792 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 1: been glued to the NBA playoffs because there's a lot 793 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: on the line, there's a history. But you know, like 794 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: if the Lakers and Lebron and Luca lose in the 795 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 1: first round, we understand what that means. When you win 796 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: on LIV, I just think it means nothing. 797 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 2: That's my issue. 798 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: The outcome, Yes, them playing individual golf like if Ron 799 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: plays a hole and he's on, it will look incredible. 800 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 1: I think I saw a clip online he drew. 801 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 2: He he drove a hole. It was four hundred yards. 802 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: Like he's he's unreal, like he is when he's on, 803 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 1: he's I'm sure still one of the best players in 804 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 1: the world. But like whether he wins at Live or 805 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: finishes sixth or third or tenth, it doesn't matter. Like 806 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: they're just playing for a lot of money, which is cool, 807 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: But like I could get my buddies and convince someone 808 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: to play for a couple hundred dollars a hole or 809 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars. I could find someone in Scottsdale that 810 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: would play me a thousand dollars a hole. I mean, 811 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: it's just that's essentially what they're doing at a really, 812 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: really high level for millions of dollars. We're in the 813 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 1: PGA Tour like they're a real Like if Andrew Novak 814 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: wins that tournament, like he's into all the majors, is 815 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: it just me? Or is the US Ryder Cup headed 816 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: for trouble. I realize it's early, but I look at 817 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: the probable teams this year and I don't see how 818 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: we can match up with the europe The only advantage 819 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: that I can find is that we play at home. 820 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 2: To me, their lineup is. 821 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: Much better at the top and much deeper. They have 822 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: Rory Hovelin, who's playing better Ludwig and fill out with 823 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: other players like Shane Lowry, Rose Hatton, Rom Fleetwood. To me, 824 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,439 Speaker 1: that's going to destroy any team that we put out. 825 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 1: I would say that for the first time in a 826 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: long time, it feels like this is going to be 827 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: really really difficult at home because if Rory maintains this 828 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 1: play all year long, if Rom can just find and 829 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: listen to live things out the window, these guys are 830 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: going to be on the team. I can find any form, 831 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, listen, if Sergio has. 832 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 2: A good year, like he will be in the mix. 833 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: Like you said, I mean, Justin Rose has played in 834 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 1: a million of these eleet Wood has just made to 835 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 1: play in these type events. 836 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're team stacked that there is no. 837 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,399 Speaker 1: Arguing that their team is really freaking good, and our 838 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: team at the top is also really good. Xander healthy, 839 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: he should be fine, obviously, Scotty, you know, Justin Thomas, Colin, 840 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 1: Mori Kawa. But like it's not quite the same of like, 841 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: I think Bryson's gotta be on the team, which you know, 842 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 1: last time it was Koepka. This year is gonna be Bryson, 843 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,280 Speaker 1: which is the right move. But where it gets difficult, 844 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: it's like, who's Bryson playing with that? That's where it 845 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 1: gets complicated. Where a lot of these guys pretty seamless transition. 846 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: You know, historically it was like Marikawa just played. 847 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 2: With Dustin Johnson and it went really well. 848 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: Right, Justin Thomas played with Jordan Speith and it went 849 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 1: really well. Was Jordan Spith gonna be on this team? 850 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:46,800 Speaker 1: To me, the coolest part about the Ryder Cup is 851 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: the Kegan's the captain, so and you know how serious 852 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 1: he's gonna take it, but he's gonna he's got a 853 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: big challenge. I saw the President's Cup captains were named today, 854 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:04,320 Speaker 1: Jeff Ogilvie and Snedeker. I see, I've wanted to introduce myself. 855 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:08,479 Speaker 1: I've seen Oglevy at the gym a million times. Looks 856 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,240 Speaker 1: like a golfer, you know, it is like fifties tall, skinny, 857 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 1: looks like he just go out and sho like sixty seven, 858 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: always doing stretches. One takeaway from the Masters, I had 859 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: was how popular Rory actually is between the people pulling 860 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,439 Speaker 1: for him on the grounds and the amount of congratulations 861 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: he received from non golf athletes and celebrities. I have 862 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: buddies I didn't even know falled golf reposting stuff about Rory. 863 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 1: People keep saying Bryson is so popular, which he obviously is, 864 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: but I don't think it's even close to Rory. Wonder 865 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 1: if you felt the same way watching well, the advantage 866 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 1: Like I've seen this. 867 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 2: Right, the NBA is back. 868 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: Look at the ratings. Well, yeah, Lebron James plays on 869 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,360 Speaker 1: the Lakers, the biggest brand, and their numbers are huge. 870 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,040 Speaker 1: If the Lakers are in the playoffs, and especially so 871 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 1: when they got a star and now they got Luca, 872 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people are gonna watch. It's like you 873 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: put the Yankees in the playoffs or the Dodgers. Everyone's watching, Well, 874 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 1: who's the second most famous player? And honestly, it's like 875 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: one A and one B. Steph freaking Curry. What do 876 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,399 Speaker 1: both have in common? Lebron James has been in my life. 877 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm forty years old, since I was a teenager. Me 878 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: and him are the same exact age and same class 879 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: in high school. Steph Curry has been in my life 880 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,720 Speaker 1: since I was in college and he was a Davison 881 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 1: taking down Kansas. So part of becoming like stardom is longevity. 882 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 1: We have a lot of guys, and I don't mean 883 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: it like this. Some of the biggest songs of our 884 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: lifetime I think would fall under one hit wonders and those. 885 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:42,399 Speaker 2: Are a really big deal. 886 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 1: But the biggest bands and most famous musicians are ones 887 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: that have countless hits. The Rolling Stones are the Rolling 888 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: Stones because they have a big catalog and they've also 889 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 1: been around for fifty years. Metallica a lot of big 890 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 1: time songs also been around since the eighties. There are 891 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: bands that are big right now, just like rap artists 892 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,320 Speaker 1: or country music stars that if you haven't been around 893 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 1: as long, you're not gonna be as big as other 894 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 1: people in your genre. That are Doctor dre and Garth Brooks. 895 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 1: So Rory has been in people's sporting people's vernacular for 896 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 1: fifteen plus years. And one thing I think we naturally 897 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: love is when you fail. Part of and I think 898 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: this helps Lamar and Josh Allen stardom going up against 899 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:32,799 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is their inability to beat the guy like 900 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: that adds to the story. That's all this stuff is 901 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 1: is its reality television show. And as I've learned with 902 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 1: Maria bravostars can make up to fifty grand an episode. 903 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: If you have fifteen episodes of season, you do the math, 904 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: you make a lot of money. There is nothing like 905 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: professional athlete money. I was talking to a buddy, a 906 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 1: cousin of mine who lives in Fresno. You know, Derek 907 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 1: Carr and David Carr have both move back to Fresno. 908 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,439 Speaker 1: You know, Derek lived in Vegas. You know, Fresno has 909 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 1: some really successful businessmen, people that have made a lot 910 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: of money. People don't talk about Fresno, California like they 911 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,840 Speaker 1: do like San Francisco or Palo Alto or Los Angeles. 912 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 2: But there are some people that are really successful people there. 913 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 2: But most of them. 914 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 1: Are business owners, farmers or other business owners. 915 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,240 Speaker 2: There aren't many. 916 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: Like w two employees that have made two hundred plus 917 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 1: million dollars in his life. That's what Derek Carr has 918 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 1: made in his career. And at the end of this 919 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: season he will love Eclipse like I think, like two 920 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million dollars playing quarterback and for the 921 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 1: majority of his career, He's never been a top. 922 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 2: Ten quarterback in the NFL. He's had a. 923 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 1: Couple of individual seasons, but on the aggregate he is not. 924 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 3: So the. 925 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 1: It's like this reality television show where there's all this 926 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,760 Speaker 1: money on the line and all these competitors and everyone 927 00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: chasing the money. It just makes it really fascinating. And 928 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 1: that's what like when you're watching Rory, like his failures 929 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: along with his successes. He has just been in the 930 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 1: world of professional sports at a really really high level. 931 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: I mean for almost twenty years. I mean he's I 932 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,759 Speaker 1: think he's thirty five years old. I mean he started 933 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 1: winning big time tournaments at like twenty or twenty one 934 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 1: years old. It's the thing with Tiger Woods, Like Tiger 935 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: was so famous so fast, and when you do that, 936 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 1: you Lebron James, Bryce Harper, Michael Jordan hit the game 937 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 1: winning shot in the National Championship in college, so like 938 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,320 Speaker 1: when you do that, you become in the mix. I 939 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:45,359 Speaker 1: think he was a freshman too in nineteen eighty one 940 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 1: or nineteen eighty two, corner on the baseline kicked it 941 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: to Michael Boom. Nothing but net So you're just like 942 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 1: the in the conversation if given the opportunity, would you 943 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: rather play around with tiger woods at Pine Valley or 944 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:05,920 Speaker 1: play with a buddy at Augusta assuming content not able 945 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:12,280 Speaker 1: to be shot at each course. If no content's available, 946 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,720 Speaker 1: I don't even You just have to choose Augusta National 947 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 1: because Pine Valley, which I hope keep my fingers crossed. 948 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:23,720 Speaker 2: One day I'll be able to play. Who knows. 949 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,399 Speaker 1: I wouldn't count on it, but it does feel attainable. 950 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 1: I guess where it's like, Augusta been around a lot 951 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 1: of successful people that love golf that have never sniffed 952 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,840 Speaker 1: getting on the course there, so to be able to say, 953 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just there aren't many better conversation starters 954 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:47,760 Speaker 1: than like I played Augusta. I played the Masters. Obviously 955 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,840 Speaker 1: you don't mean playing during the Masters. I know what 956 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 1: you're saying. But you can have that conversation with anybody. 957 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 1: Most people in my life that if they're not big 958 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: golf people, they wouldn't even know what Pine Valley is. 959 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 1: So I think that without hesitation Augusta. Now if you 960 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 1: said I could film, because Augusta wouldn't let you film 961 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,399 Speaker 1: no matter what, but I could film the Tiger woods thing. 962 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: Then listen, I'm a businessman. We got mouths to feed 963 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 1: in this family, and I would say Tiger, but no cameras, 964 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 1: no besides maybe like one still photo, it would be 965 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: it would be Augusta for sure. Question, I'd probably have 966 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 1: to choose my brother. We'd have to have a historic 967 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 1: round of gambling on that on that day we done. 968 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 2: Me and him have done I think like fifty dollars 969 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 2: a hole. 970 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 1: Maybe even when you do that, though, and if you're 971 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 1: similar golfers, unless you do like carryovers, it's pretty easy 972 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 1: to basically not lose that much. Question for the pod, 973 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,800 Speaker 1: I firmly believe now that Rory has completed the Grand Slam, 974 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 1: he won a major for the first time in a 975 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:56,919 Speaker 1: decade and got the monkey off his back, that now 976 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 1: he can go on a run, rattle off another major 977 00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 1: this year, win four or five more tournaments, and surpass 978 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 1: Scotty as the world number one. Thoughts, you know, I 979 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 1: think the world number one. Let's face it, the world 980 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,360 Speaker 1: rankings are kind of stupid now, you know. If the 981 00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 1: live guy's all gone, not really playing in sanctioned events, 982 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 1: it's hard to kind of quantify it. You just kind 983 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,720 Speaker 1: of know, like who are the best players in the world, Scotty, 984 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 1: Rory Bryson, you know Xander until the rib injury, you 985 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,279 Speaker 1: would have set him to But like that's the crew 986 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: right now and you just know it when you see it. 987 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 1: And like this year, right now, Rory McElroy is the 988 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 1: best player. He's not the number one player in the world, 989 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,280 Speaker 1: but in twenty twenty five he's clearly the best player. 990 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: That can change, but like that's a fact, and so 991 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if he can surpass them. How many 992 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: tournaments you have to win? Like what if Scotty also 993 00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: wins a tournament or two, you know, he probably maintained 994 00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 1: that that spot. But to me, if Rory wins, I mean, 995 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 1: if he were to win another major this year, even 996 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,760 Speaker 1: if he doesn't win another tournament and wins two elevated 997 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 1: events in two majors, I think that would be better 998 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 1: than the version of in assuming then he would win 999 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,879 Speaker 1: the FedEx Cup, though they have changed. 1000 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 2: Kind of the format on that. 1001 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 1: I refuse to like look too much into it at 1002 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:14,680 Speaker 1: too much going on last week, But that thing's going 1003 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:16,840 Speaker 1: to look a lot different this year, I think, or 1004 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 1: maybe it's for twenty twenty six, but yeah, I mean, 1005 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 1: I think Rory can swing back for sure. In fairness, 1006 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,439 Speaker 1: like Scotty legitimately was the best player in the world 1007 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: last year. You know, I know Xander got hot in 1008 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: the two Majors, but on the totality, it wasn't really 1009 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: that close. What's going on with the Gala been following 1010 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 1: him over the last couple of years and really thought 1011 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,200 Speaker 1: after last year he was primed for a breakout year 1012 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,399 Speaker 1: and has really struggled. Any thoughts, I'm with you. As 1013 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:47,799 Speaker 1: a gambler, I take him in some parlays and he's 1014 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 1: really fucked me. I mean, there's no way he's blown 1015 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:56,919 Speaker 1: a couple I think like fifteen to twenty to one 1016 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: parlays that would have won me a couple grand over 1017 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,360 Speaker 1: the course of the year because he has been bad. 1018 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:03,479 Speaker 2: I but you know, the way I. 1019 00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:05,400 Speaker 1: Do this is I take a couple of screenshots so 1020 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 1: it's easy for me to so I kind of looked 1021 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 1: after I saw your question. He's never been a very 1022 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 1: accurate driver of the golf ball, so why when he 1023 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 1: almost won at TBC Scottsdale. Listen, I play there. I 1024 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 1: was actually gonna go out today and hit some balls, 1025 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 1: but you could. 1026 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 2: Spray it around. 1027 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 1: It's not I wouldn't call it exactly the you know, 1028 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 1: Hilton Head, You're like, you've got to be super accurate 1029 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,840 Speaker 1: off the tea, and looking at some of the statistics, 1030 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 1: he's not accurate off the tea at all. And when 1031 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 1: you're not accurate off the tea, like you have problems. 1032 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: But like one thing that he used to be is 1033 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: like incredible. 1034 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 2: Around the greens. 1035 00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: And I don't know, you know, I think sometimes in golf, 1036 00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,919 Speaker 1: a guy can look good and there's not as much 1037 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 1: pressure on him, and then we go he's gonna take 1038 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: the next step when it's really hard to do that. 1039 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,760 Speaker 1: And I would imagine you start feeling that as a player, 1040 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: right you come on the scene, it's like, God, I'm 1041 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: pretty good. And listen, he's googled Thigala in college. I mean, 1042 00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: this guy was a blue chipper, like a stud. So 1043 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 1: this the equivalent of Thigala in the NFL, Like he's 1044 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 1: a top ten pick. But you know, sometimes after you 1045 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: really settle down on the PGH, I do think it 1046 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 1: becomes difficult because then you've got expectations, people are looking 1047 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:21,279 Speaker 1: at you. 1048 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 2: You start playing some future groups. He's a fan favorite. 1049 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 2: He's very likable. You know people are pulling for you. 1050 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:32,760 Speaker 1: And I think the difficult part about golf, Like in football, 1051 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: if I'm struggling, like I could just be like I'm 1052 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: gonna go fucking hit someone hard. I'm just gonna go 1053 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: make a play, right. 1054 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:42,360 Speaker 2: And in golf you can't. 1055 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 1: Like the harder you try, sometimes the worse you are. 1056 00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 1: And again I'm guessing, but I'm just a fan of 1057 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,359 Speaker 1: the guy and he's been awful. I think when you 1058 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: spray it around a little bit too, and this is 1059 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 1: like justin Thomas. I think one way to really validate 1060 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,359 Speaker 1: like an awesome season is to truly be in the mix, 1061 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 1: either at the PGA, which he's obviously had a lot 1062 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: of success or the British I don't really like him 1063 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: at the US Open because he's not that accurate off 1064 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:11,240 Speaker 1: the tea. So this year he's putted a lot different better, 1065 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 1: but like, I trust his iron game. If he's in 1066 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:15,280 Speaker 1: the middle of the fairway, he's as good as anybody 1067 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: around the green. I mean, he's just a wizard with 1068 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:19,560 Speaker 1: his wedges and if he's putting well, like he's a 1069 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,800 Speaker 1: really good but off the t he's just not that accurate, 1070 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 1: and I think sometimes when you're a little guy and 1071 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: you're swinging out of your shoes, even with today's technology, 1072 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 1: you like the bal can fly all over the place. 1073 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 1: Like part of what, why is Ludvig not that inaccurate 1074 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:35,280 Speaker 1: off the tea because it doesn't look like he's swinging 1075 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: that hard. I would say the same thing for DJ 1076 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:39,840 Speaker 1: in the peak of his career, like he was really 1077 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 1: accurate off the tea. Well, it's like he's built like 1078 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 1: a Carson Palmer. He just I mean, he technically is 1079 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: swing hard relative to everyone else, but it does not 1080 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,280 Speaker 1: look like he's trying that hard. Where when you watchusin 1081 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: Thomas and it's a five hundred yard part four, he 1082 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 1: like me or you, is swinging out of our shoes 1083 00:54:57,719 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 1: in the margin for error. I mean, why Tiger early 1084 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:00,800 Speaker 1: on his career spray. 1085 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:01,439 Speaker 2: The ball over the place? 1086 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 1: No one has ever swung his hard. Now the gall 1087 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: is taller, but he just it does feel like he 1088 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: sprays the ball a lot looking at the statistics. 1089 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:13,360 Speaker 2: Okay, last question. 1090 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,480 Speaker 1: Bryson is taking quite a bit of heat for his 1091 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,240 Speaker 1: post round interview after the final round of the Masters 1092 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 1: in regards to the comments made about Rory not speaking 1093 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:23,279 Speaker 1: to him. 1094 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 2: The entire day. 1095 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 1: Even Rich Eisen had a segment about it with Shipnuk 1096 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 1: where he blasted him a little bit. I think the 1097 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 1: whole thing is overblown. The guy had to talk to 1098 00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 1: the media right after shooting seventy five in the final 1099 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 1: round of the Masters. I'm sure he was pissed about 1100 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 1: his performance and considering he was in the mix to 1101 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 1: start the day. The way I see it, nothing Bryson 1102 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,439 Speaker 1: said implied the way he was upset about the fact 1103 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 1: that Rory didn't talk to him. 1104 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 2: He just said that he didn't. 1105 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: This is a nothing burger story. Do you have any 1106 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:57,319 Speaker 1: thoughts on the situation. Well, I think I'm with you 1107 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 1: in you know, the one thing where more Cow isn't 1108 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 1: totally wrong is when you just get off the golf 1109 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 1: course usually, you know, especially the way Augusta does it, 1110 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 1: they have that interview. If you're not going in with 1111 00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:11,280 Speaker 1: Van Pelt, you just interview there right there on the grass. 1112 00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: And that's where Bryson did his. Is you basically just 1113 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 1: walk off and you talk immediately. And it's one thing 1114 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:20,160 Speaker 1: when you win and your daughter, your girlfriend, your mom, 1115 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,960 Speaker 1: or it's a fucking party. When you shoot seventy five 1116 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:24,839 Speaker 1: and you just go I just blew the masters, because 1117 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 1: that's You're right, He's just kind of not in a 1118 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 1: great mood. 1119 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:28,879 Speaker 2: And I'm with you. 1120 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:31,440 Speaker 1: I didn't see the question that was asked, did he 1121 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,399 Speaker 1: volunteer that? Or it's like what were your interactions with him? 1122 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:39,359 Speaker 1: Like one, Tiger Woods became a legend, not just because 1123 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: he was kicking everyone's ass, but a lot like Michael 1124 00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:43,840 Speaker 1: Jordan was the way. 1125 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 2: He kicked everyone's ass. 1126 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 1: He didn't have any friends on the PGA tour, he 1127 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 1: didn't talk with anyone on the PGA tour, he didn't 1128 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:54,320 Speaker 1: fratnize with anybody. Tony Fenale famously said in twenty nineteen 1129 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 1: like it was like whole three or four. Tony was 1130 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 1: like trying to just break the ice on Sunday, like, Tiger, 1131 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:03,359 Speaker 1: how are the kids? Tiger basically said fine and never 1132 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 1: even looked at him and kept walking. Tony's like, I'm 1133 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:06,879 Speaker 1: not saying another word of this guy. 1134 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 2: And it was a. 1135 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:11,360 Speaker 1: Throwback and historically, like that's the way Tiger became the 1136 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 1: most famous golfer of all time. Operating and Rory, who 1137 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: does feel a little more chit chatty, like what's he 1138 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 1: supposed to say to Bryson, especially given their history last year, 1139 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 1: like this was a big time moment for the guy's 1140 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,160 Speaker 1: career and unlike Bryson, I don't want to say make 1141 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 1: or break Rory, but there was a lot of There 1142 00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 1: was way more. 1143 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 2: In the line for Rory than Bryson, and so I listen. 1144 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 1: I think it's stupid that we even like sometimes people 1145 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 1: in golf don't want to talk sometimes, like Jimmy Butler 1146 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 1: talking with Dylan Brooks. 1147 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 2: Like guys talk shit to each other. 1148 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: It's like, welcome to Draymond Green and Jalen Green screaming 1149 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 1: at each. 1150 00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 2: Other the other day. 1151 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 1: It's like, this is sports, guys. This isn't like an 1152 00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 1: interaction at the local FedEx.
