WEBVTT - 11/16/20-HOUR 2- Nick Faldo 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.120 Sports Radio. It's our two. Hope you had a great weekend. 0:00:07.160 --> 0:00:10.320 Everybody a lot to talk about. We'll talk to Nick Faldo, 0:00:10.400 --> 0:00:13.600 the former Master's British Open champ Hill. Joan is coming 0:00:13.640 --> 0:00:17.160 up at about twenty minutes from now. Golf experts came 0:00:17.200 --> 0:00:19.759 into the Master's week worry that Bryson A. Shambo was 0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:23.200 going to tear up Augusta rewrite the record books. Well 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:25.640 they were half right, because a golfer did make history 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:27.960 with the lowest score ever. But it was Dustin Johnson, 0:00:28.040 --> 0:00:31.880 not to Shambo. Johnson came in at twenty under lowest 0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:35.760 score in Master's history, and earlier in his career. Who 0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.320 would know if he would be able to handle that 0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:40.720 final day lead, And for the most part he had 0:00:40.720 --> 0:00:44.600 problems doing that, but there was a pressure mounting and 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:47.520 he certainly didn't fold. He certainly has as much talent 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:50.640 as anybody. But he finally put it together and now, 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:54.560 at age thirty six, seemed settled in his life and 0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:57.480 confident in his play. His second major, he won the 0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:01.200 US Open in twenty sixteen. Shambo has been the golf 0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:03.560 story of the year, but Dustin Johnson made a strong 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:05.880 statement over the weekend. You get the feeling it won't 0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:08.840 be the last time we see him being recognized on 0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:13.280 the world's biggest stage. Here's Dustin Johnson after he won 0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:15.760 the Masters. Yeah, it was an incredible phil Obviously, I 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.720 played unbelievable golf all week. You know, the conditions of 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:21.320 the course definitely helped the scoring with a little bit, 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.080 but you know, still played really well today. I thought 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:27.360 played really difficult. You know, the win was was very tricky. 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:31.000 So to have the scoring record shooting twenty under this week, 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.880 you know, it's it's a great, great honor and I'm 0:01:33.920 --> 0:01:37.880 so excited that it's hard to even talk. Yeah, he 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.679 got emotional there. He doesn't say much. He's pretty quiet, 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.840 and he took apart that golf course and I think 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:47.520 the time of the year, the conditions as far as 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:50.720 how wet, it was very receptive and you know, you 0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.480 can see it's it doesn't take long before you know 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.160 that these golfers are taking dead aim because that's not 0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:59.320 a course that you take dead aim on normally because 0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.480 of the condition. But it was very receptive and Dustin 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.600 Johnson went out and was the best golfer by far 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.600 eight seven seven three d P show email address DP 0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:11.440 of Dan Patrick dot com, twitter handle a DP show mclovin. 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:13.480 You were hiding the poll question from me for the 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:16.639 first hour. Okay, mainly because it's a little silly. But 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:19.239 who are you more excited to see or who would 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.120 you rather see a quarterback for the Saints, Taysom Hill 0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:27.600 or Jamis Winston. So, as a neutral fan, which experiment 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.240 do you want to see more? Jamis or Taysom? Okay? 0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:32.760 Am I a Saints fan? No, you're a neutral fan. Oh, 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:36.919 I'd rather see Taysom Hill just to see what happened. Yeah, yeah, 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.440 I mean there's more curiosity. I know. When I'm getting 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.160 with Jamis Winston. The question is is he going to 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:45.480 be able to be a little more conservative or more 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.919 cautious in his approach sometimes? And what he throws, how 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:53.120 he throws, where he throws it. Taysom, Let's see what 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:56.200 he's got. Yeah, I'm okay with that. See what he's 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:59.119 gone now. I don't think he's your backup quarterback, but 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.720 I am is I'd like to see, you know, I 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.079 was looking at the number of plays that he's had 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:09.120 offensive snaps per game Saints average about seventy plays. To 0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:13.560 the Taysom Hill experiment, he's on the field for about 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:17.040 twenty five percent of the snaps, so twenty five percent 0:03:17.520 --> 0:03:23.120 out of seventy For a guy that's that talented, I 0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:25.639 would figure that he would be involved in the offense 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:28.680 a little bit more with Jamis Winston out there. They 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:31.840 normally don't put Taysom in there with Jamis Winston, but 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.280 they would put him in there with Drew Brees. But 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:38.920 Drew Brees getting an MRI on his ribs, and you 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.280 know we're going to find out how valuable Drew Brees 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.880 is because you know, you get the win against San Francisco. 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.040 The next ring game three games are against Atlanta, Denver 0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:52.960 and Atlanta, and those teams are three and six right now. 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.440 I think Atlanta will win one of these two games 0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:58.200 against the Saints no matter who's the quarterback there, but 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:04.120 as of right, Jameis Winston as your starting quarterback. Phone 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:06.920 calls are always welcome, especially on Monday, best and worst 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:08.840 of the weekend, which you saw that you liked you 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:15.640 didn't like. The NBA will reportedly inform teams the moratorium 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:20.120 on transactions will end at noon Eastern today allowing trades 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:23.240 to be consummated ahead of the twenty twenty NBA Draft. 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:29.159 Adrian Wojnarowski reported the teams have been unable to consummate 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:32.400 trades despite the league having its accounting done with an 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:36.040 agreement with the NBA Players Association on a December twenty 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:39.159 second start date. The NBA is set to have a 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:44.039 significantly compressed offseason. Players set to report to camp December first, 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:50.120 so teams informed trades can be made starting this afternoon. Yeah, 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:53.200 polm if the Lakers do get that guard Dennis Schroeder 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:56.279 or Schroder out of Oklahoma set. He's a good players. 0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:58.160 That was a nineteen A game this year. Supposed to 0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:00.040 be a good defender. He was at a Lance a 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:02.320 few years ago and he was coming up. Yeah, a 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:10.960 nice pickup. Yeah, if they go yeah, Dennis Shrewder. Contavious 0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:14.440 Caldwell Pope would decline his option and her free agency. 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:18.200 According to The Athletic, He's expect to have several suitors 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:21.520 at the start of free agency. Teams are under the impression, 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:26.080 under the impression he's open two offers. There is the 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.919 big rumor out there where James Harden and maybe the 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.840 Brooklyn Nets and somehow they'd make that work with Kevin 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:35.520 Durant and Kyrie Irving. Oh, I think it'd be a 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:41.240 fabulous mess. I think it would be wonderful. Poor Steve Nash, 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:45.320 James Harden, Kyrie, Kevin Durant. What could go wrong? Adding 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.680 another coach to the team. Yep, got it can't have 0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:51.440 too many coaches, Yes, mclovin. I texted you guys this 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:55.440 weekend celebrity sighting. Well, wait, I'm still on this basketball 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.280 I know, but you just might have mentioned one of them, 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:05.400 Kevin durand Kyrie Nope, James Harden and Brooklyn No, So 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.440 I was. I said that was the topic I was on. 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.520 You just said his name, Steve Nash. No, I didn't 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.520 see him. Oh, my guy was at a store and 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:16.919 he had just walked out. But I did see Cantavius Caldwell, 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.400 But so Steve Nash I missed by a minute. Then 0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:21.360 I was getting coffee on the way back, and guess 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:27.679 who was next to me. Not Steve Shrewder. He's my neighbor. 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:33.120 So D'Antoni and Nash both live within three blocks, You said, Nash, 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:36.039 I know, but I was still working on the trade 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:38.560 possibility and then you threw in your celebrity song you 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:41.120 saw Mike D'Antoni. I saw Mike D'Antoni, and the only 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.919 reason Dan I got so scared he was not a celebrity. 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.000 I was like, should I talk to him? Dan would 0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.200 talk to him, but I wasn't one hundred percent sure 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.520 it was him. He's not that tall. Do you think 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:55.120 Mike D'Antoni is telling people he saw you? No, because 0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:58.160 I also gauge immediately gauge he had no idea who 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:02.080 I was. He really didn't. He was wearing an NBA 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:04.760 face mask. That's the only reason you would have. He 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:06.320 looked like he'd be friends with you. I don't know 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:08.239 what it was. Well, I've known him a long time, 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.120 but why did you tell me that he's not a 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.760 Celebrity's if he'd got an a head coaching job, but 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.520 he's still not a celebrity. Steve Nash is cool, though 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:19.440 Steve Nash is a celebrity. I'll give you that. How 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:21.920 are those guys going to handle James Harden and Brooklyn? 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.440 Back to what I was saying about the possibility of 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:26.640 James Harden going to Brooklyn, I don't know how they 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:30.760 make this work. But they've got din Witty and Lavert 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:33.480 that would probably be expendable if you're going to send 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.320 him to the Rockets. I still get the feeling the 0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:39.280 seventy sixers are going to do something if there if 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.800 anybody's bringing in James Harden, it would be the seventy sixers. 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:46.640 And what I would do, and nobody's asking me, I 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:49.720 would have James Harden, and I would have him paired 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:54.040 with Ben Simmons, because Joe LMBIID is gonna want to shoot, 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:57.240 and I think Ben Simmons, I just tell him, do 0:07:57.360 --> 0:08:00.360 all the things that you do well, don't worry about 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.360 anything else. James will take care of the offense. You 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:07.680 do the other things. He's a good defender, rebound pass, 0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:12.000 you know, in transition, he's really good. But that's what 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.160 I would do, because I don't want to try to 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:17.640 keep Joe Ellenbad happy, because that feels like that might 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:22.160 be messy as well. But James Harden with Kevin Durant 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:25.760 and Kyrie and somehow they'd make that work. It'd be great. 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:30.840 I'd love it. I'd love to watch it, but I'm 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:34.840 a little bit I'm not sure about that. I'm not 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:39.800 sure about that. Ray Allen was on Sirious XMNBA Radio 0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:42.840 and he says, if you look at Kyrie Harden, if 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.120 this happens and then Kevin Durant, it's going to be 0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:50.920 extremely difficult. Ray Allen told the Frank Isola Brian Scalabrini Show, 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.440 if James Harden were to end up in Brooklyn, he 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.320 doesn't think it would work. And Kyrie and Kevin Durant, 0:08:56.720 --> 0:08:59.200 he says, it could be a train wreck. All right, 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:02.880 I think would be. I just said it. I mean, 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:04.560 it's gonna be a hot mass is what it's going 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:07.520 to be. Yeah, Paul, what if the nets were allowed 0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:10.360 to play with two basketballs on off, just to mix 0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:12.880 it up, keep everybody happy? Just this year, it seems 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.840 only fair. This Thanksgiving, the Duttons are back. Oh man. 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:21.160 If you haven't watched Yellowstone, it is great. Season three, 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:24.640 starring Kevin Coster, comes to Peacock on November twenty second. 0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:27.120 If you're a newcomer to the Ranch or a season pro, 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:29.600 you don't want to miss this epic season starts streaming 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:32.960 seasons one and two right now. Can't say enough good 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:37.120 things about it. Peacock carrying Yellowstone It is great Chris 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:41.199 Mortenson just sent this tweet. Teddy Bridgewater got good news 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:45.000 on his MRI. No structural damage, some soreness, some swelling. 0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:49.680 Status uncertain for this week, but positives, but positive vibe 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:53.880 for the Panthers quarterback. So that's good to hear. Nick 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:56.280 Fowler will join us coming up. We'll talk about what 0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.360 went right for Dustin, went wrong for Bryson to Shambo, 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.320 and what's he make of Tiger Woods performance, including a 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:06.440 ten at number twelve. Steelers are now nine and Ozero. 0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:10.120 They're going to be favorites in every game the rest 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:13.760 of the season except for Thanksgiving against the Ravens. The 0:10:13.880 --> 0:10:17.440 NFC West is all jammed up and it is going 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.320 to be great. You've got three teams right now six 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:23.040 and three, Arizona six and three, Rams six and three, 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:26.120 Seattle six and three. The Cardinals will be at Seattle 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:30.280 on Thursday, the Rams at Tampa on Monday night. Seattle 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.240 plays the Cardinals and Rams down the stretch. Arizona plays 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:37.240 the Rams twice, Seattle once, the Rams at Arizona in 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:42.839 week thirteen, Finish at Seattle, then Arizona at home if 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:47.040 they happen to go to an eighteam playoff field, then 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.760 I could see all three of those teams making the playoffs. 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:56.480 But right now the field is seven. Saints and Buccaneers 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.680 look like playoff teams in the South. I mean, you 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:02.000 start to do the math here and it looks like 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:03.679 one of those teams is going to be left out 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:07.680 unless they add another playoff team to the NFC and 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:11.880 the AFC Steelers the rest of the season. I mentioned 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:18.360 Thanksgiving against the Ravens. Yes, Boone Steelers have the who Jacksonville, 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:22.800 Baltimore Ravens, Washington football team, Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals ended 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.079 up as Colts and they finished the season week seventeen 0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:27.600 against the Browns. Wouldn't be weird if the Steelers were. 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.760 You're rolling and they rested everybody weeks seventeen. So Mason 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:33.600 Rudolph gets a start against the Browns week seventeen. I 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:36.280 don't know. It feels like if they're sixteen and fifteen 0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:38.800 to know that they're going for sixteen to know and 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:42.000 they're playing the Browns and maybe you knock the Browns 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:45.360 out of the playoff picture there. Yeah, club Mason Rudolph 0:11:45.400 --> 0:11:47.880 warms up about seven times a game already, like Ben 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:49.840 is how many times has he been on the brink 0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:52.840 of coming off with an injury. He has to stay warm, 0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:56.679 Mason Rudolph has to stay warm. He does. I think 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:59.760 he starts out warming up just because you're not quite sure. 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:02.000 I also saw where some people saying, I know you 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.880 gave Alex Smith the comeback player of the year, it's 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:08.679 Ben Roethlisberger. I mean he did come back from surgery, 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:12.280 arm surgery. I'll give you that. When you say someone 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:16.920 almost died, I'm gonna give Alex Smith a little more 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.520 credit that he's back playing football. He threw for over 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:24.640 three hundred yards. Ben came back from arm surgery. Absolutely, 0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:30.920 Alex Smith came back from his death bed. I'm going 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:34.640 to give the edge to Alex Smith that he's playing football, 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:40.840 not that he tried to play football. He playing football. Yeah, 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.200 Nick Balls had a tough offseasons. Taxes went up and 0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:48.720 one of his cars transmission blue. Yeah. Some Ali, he's 0:12:48.760 --> 0:12:51.720 not he's not being involved in the conversation. Yeah, yeah, 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.920 I McLevin. Yeah. If the Bears win tonight, by the way, 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:58.120 all the back on the falls, no, no, no, just 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:01.839 stomp with that. Nobody cared. We're trying to create some 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:05.839 kind of discussion argument. Nobody cares. Like old Carson Wentz 0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:08.960 camp play. They should have captain Nick folesh Nick Foles. 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:11.120 If he loses, Oh, they should, you know, go with 0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:17.040 Mitchell Trubisky. These are tired kind. Nobody cares. Maybe in 0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:20.000 those cities they do, but I don't think anybody cares. 0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:25.200 Mike Florio says that Drew Brees suffered a rib contusion 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:29.360 and the team is bracing for Breeze to miss some 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:37.000 time to fully heal. Hight to surprise. I mean, this 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:42.680 could just be precautionary, but rib contusion is what he had. 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:46.240 A couple more phone calls and we'll take a break. 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.600 Nick Foudo will join us from Augusta. Matt in Pennsylvania. Hi, Matt, 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.920 what's on your mind today? Hey Dan? Thanks saying Michael. 0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:58.920 The first time long time five ten to fifteen worst 0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:02.080 of the weekend that Pence eight loss at Nebraska. You 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.080 make a great point, though Frank's not going anywhere with 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:07.640 the extension he signed, and the season was basically over 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:10.920 after they lost the Indiana Ohio State turned it around 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:13.040 though with Hube Halloween. It is my best of the weekend. 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:17.680 Enjoyed the movie. Absolutely ridiculous. How many random objects Standler 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.440 had to dodge on that bike. Thanks guys, some good day. 0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:24.760 Thank you Matt. Last season, Indiana Northwestern in Maryland Purdue 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:27.520 want It combined ten and twenty six in conference play. 0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:32.120 This season combined record of twelve and two in conference play. 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:36.200 Indiana has been a pleasant surprise. Maryland's fun to watch. 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:43.640 To his brother, he's exciting. So it's good. Northwestern undefeated 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:46.960 and it's Look, it's a crazy year, so why not? 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:50.400 Ye Who would have thought Penn State in Michigan would 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:54.200 be this bad? And I watched the first half of 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:57.800 Wisconsin Michigan. I think it was twenty eight nothing. I said, yep, 0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.600 I've seen enough here and it only got worse. One 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:04.320 more phone call, will take a break. Eric in California, Hi, Eric, 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.360 what's on your mind? Hey? Dan? Have it gone good? Budd? 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:09.840 I'm calling for the best and worst of the week. 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:15.080 My best would be the USC Trojan's coming back against Arizona, 0:15:15.440 --> 0:15:17.560 and I'm going to stay in house for my worst 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:21.080 with the week with Clay Helton's mediocre coaching the last 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:26.600 two weeks, well they did win. Eric, it doesn't matter 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.920 what USC does this year. The alumni is not going 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:33.480 to be thrilled with Clay Helton. I mean, you'll take 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:37.200 the wins, but I think there's a part of that 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.120 fan base that goes, I'd rather not have the wins 0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:42.880 if it meant we change coaches here. Who are you 0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:45.680 getting to take over for Clay Helton. That's why it 0:15:45.720 --> 0:15:48.360 always goes back to, First of all, James Franklin's not 0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:50.480 going to be fired by Penn State anytime soon. They 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:54.520 owe him thirty eight million dollars. I think if they 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.360 fire Jim Harbor, I don't think he's fired, not this year. 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:00.480 I think they give him one more year. They don't 0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:02.960 want to give him whatever his contract is or the 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:08.000 buy out. With that USC, they're winning, but it's still 0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:09.840 not going to be good enough for you know, because 0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:12.800 you go, gosh, we could have had urban Meyer, and 0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:16.080 they did make a run at urban Meyer, but school 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:18.600 officials did not want urban Meyer as they head coach 0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:20.480 at USC. From what I was told, Yeah, playing, but 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.600 like you said, USC's two and oh they shouldn't be, 0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:26.320 but they are, and they've got Utah, Colorado, Wash State, UCLA. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:29.520 It could go completely one way or the other. That's 0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:32.040 gonna be a weird situation for the fans of the team. 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.680 If your coach goes five and one, what do you do. 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:37.880 I just don't know if it matters this year because 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:40.680 they're not gonna play enough games where you're gonna go boy, 0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:42.920 that team is really good. We got to put them 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:45.040 into the playoffs. I mean it's a long shot here. 0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:51.480 You got BYU in Cincinnati, They're undefeated Ohio State. It 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:53.320 seems like that they're going to be in there. Clemson's 0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:55.560 going to be in there, Alabama's going to be in there. 0:16:55.600 --> 0:16:58.120 Maybe Florida gets in there. Maybe Notre Dame gets in there. 0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:00.720 But I don't think anybody from the the PAC twelve. 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:04.639 I mean, unless somebody goes boy, Oregon's really good. But 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.480 I don't know if you're you're gonna have a big 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:12.359 enough sample size there. I loved watching Florida last couple 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:18.359 of games. Man Trask is very talented, very talented, and 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:21.280 he hangs in there under fire. That's what I love 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.399 to see, when they're right in your face and you 0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:26.320 somehow hang in there and then he'll wait. Yeah, Paul 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:29.560 and Florida and Trash, they control their own destiny. If 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:32.360 Florida could somehow get to the the SEC Title game 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:35.480 and beat Alabama. They could go to the Final four 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:38.560 and win him the Heisman the same night. It couldn't be. Yeah, 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:40.199 I mean, it's a long way to go, but you 0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:43.639 need that showcase game. You know a lot of times 0:17:43.640 --> 0:17:46.840 what happens is a Heisman candidate doesn't have that moment 0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:49.719 on national TV where it's a standalone game. If Florida 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:53.280 plays Alabama and the SEC Title game and Trask would 0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:56.600 win that game, then he would win the Heisman Trophy. 0:17:57.960 --> 0:18:00.240 He would all right, we'll take a break. Nick Aldo 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:03.000 will join us on loan from CBS. We'll take a break. 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:05.320 It's nineteen after the hour. Back after this.

Nick 0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:59.400 Faldo the lead analyst who joins us Nick Howard, Oh 0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:02.920 look at you, you got you got some you got 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:09.240 some fish. I make serious serious, I can't. I can't 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:12.600 hold a candle to your sets up on your desk. 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:15.840 But how are you, my friends? What do you okay? 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.119 What do you have? You got your Christmas ornaments? Here? 0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:21.080 Are you a puppeteers? These are the nomes in the 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:24.320 most high after the green jacket These time a very 0:19:24.320 --> 0:19:28.480 close second. These are the most highly praised thing. I 0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:31.440 only got started the collection last year at this film 0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:34.439 because they did a Christmas with which I assume we 0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:37.560 hope will we only ever Christmas? No ever, ever, So 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:42.520 he's worth a fortune. I like how Nick forgot where 0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:46.120 his green jackets were yesterday when Jim nance was asking 0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:49.160 so you said your trophies, you go, I got one 0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:51.560 in London, and uh, I don't know do I have 0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:54.399 two in London. I'm like, really, you don't know where 0:19:54.440 --> 0:19:59.600 your trophies aren't? No, well, I do have one in Florida, 0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:02.240 and I I actually it's kind of I don't make 0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:04.440 a big first, but you know I can. I can 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:06.680 walk up past it every single day on my way 0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:09.439 to the kitchen and have a look at it. And 0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:12.680 it's just there's the claret joke, you know, just lying 0:20:14.840 --> 0:20:17.359 next to the next to the white bottles, you know. 0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:21.040 So it's hey, I just like to gently remind myself 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:24.119 and anybody who comes in the front door who I was. 0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:28.960 Do you get three green jackets or just one? Because 0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:34.280 technically one? But as I said, I fortunately I've I've 0:20:34.560 --> 0:20:40.919 become a little plumper over the years, and I so funny. 0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:43.520 The funny thing was, I thought I would try to 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:49.160 bring a bit of European style Italian tailoring. So I said, 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:52.159 any chance I could have a two button one, and 0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:55.199 but they did a three button, of course, and all 0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:58.000 they did was length and the lapel and it's still 0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:00.200 got a button hole in it, so it didn't really work. 0:21:00.280 --> 0:21:03.880 And and they actually my one eye wore this year 0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:06.840 for Champions dinner was a little tight. So you might 0:21:06.960 --> 0:21:09.880 have to put a putter. I think it's because I've 0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:13.600 been exercising, so I might have to put an order 0:21:13.600 --> 0:21:16.400 in one a smidging big big. It might be nice. 0:21:16.640 --> 0:21:18.760 What would you shoot on the course if you played 0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:23.480 it today? I couldn't break eighty out there. I'd shoot 0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:27.679 forty over. I mean how mister Langer shot four under, 0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:31.439 you know, beats target beach, plays Bryson and beats him. 0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:34.360 I mean he's a he counted it two fifty off 0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:38.639 the team. Bryson's in at three fifteen, and Bernard's going 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:41.120 in with three words and thing and missus a green 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:43.400 and he hits a funky chip and he holds the pot. 0:21:43.760 --> 0:21:46.320 I mean he is phenomenal. I mean, you don't they 0:21:46.359 --> 0:21:48.040 need to talk. They need that. He needs to do 0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:52.679 a mental book, you know, the psychology, because he is 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:57.280 amazingly powerful. To do that, that is some achievement. I 0:21:57.280 --> 0:22:00.800 wouldn't even go out there would I would absolutely embarrass 0:22:00.920 --> 0:22:04.879 myself and hate it. And so I'm quite happy sitting 0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:07.600 in my late tea in town. It's a lot easier 0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:11.120 dust in that performance this weekend. Could he have done 0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:14.639 the same thing back in April given the normal conditions 0:22:14.640 --> 0:22:18.120 in April as opposed to November. No, No, exactly. They're 0:22:18.119 --> 0:22:19.800 going to have to put the last strip to that 0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:22.800 one because you know, having soft greens, you know, those 0:22:22.840 --> 0:22:26.360 first two days, there's many holes, many whole locations where 0:22:26.359 --> 0:22:29.119 the players would pull it, especially down that sixth hole, 0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:31.520 they would pull it. They would land on the left 0:22:31.600 --> 0:22:33.600 edge of the green. I just plug and stay there. Well, 0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:36.480 if you hit that pull under normal greens, that would 0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:39.000 be one big bounce, you'd be in the bushes. You 0:22:39.000 --> 0:22:41.800 would at best that best you take a five. If 0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:43.720
