We had the 38 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: women's title game, which really didn't offer much entertainment outside 39 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 2: of the interview that Caitlin Clark sat through when they 40 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: were just kind of cussing and letting loose because the 41 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: game had gotten out of sorts. But here we are 42 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 2: final round. What is a good evil? McElroy versus Deschambeau. 43 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 2: Do we do that anymore with the PGA Tour and Live. 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you what we absolutely do. And because 45 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 4: of what is at stake with Rory and his career 46 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 4: Grand Slam and honestly, Mike, since he blew the lead 47 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 4: in twenty eleven, the four stroke lead going into the 48 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 4: final round, this masters has always hung over his head. 49 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 4: And then when you win the three other legs of 50 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 4: the Grand Slam within the next three years. It's been 51 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 4: hanging over his head for a decade. And now you 52 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 4: have an opportunity where you enter a final round with 53 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 4: a two shot lead, which very well could have been 54 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 4: a three shot lead except for Bryson De Shamba's heroics 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 4: on eighteen. You have everything that has been with Rory 56 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 4: McElroy for the past decade, everything that's been with the 57 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 4: PGA tourn Live over the last three years or so, 58 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 4: and Mike not only that, because Bryson is who he is, 59 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 4: and Bryson was not liked by people, say four years ago, 60 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 4: was not people weren't fans of Bryson to Shamba has 61 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 4: done a complete one eighty now as a complete fan favorite. 62 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 4: It is. It is a crazy, crazy day of golf. 63 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 4: Watching the Golf Channel last night, they even said this 64 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 4: could be the greatest day in golf that we have 65 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: seen since nineteen thirty. I mean, this is it is, 66 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 4: It is gonna be musty television and Mike. For as 67 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 4: much as you want to talk yourself into guessing how 68 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: it's going to play out, there's always little, the little 69 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 4: voice on the other side of your head that says, uh, 70 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 4: it's not gonna go that way, It's going to go 71 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 4: this way. And with both competitors you can make arguments. 72 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 4: And that's what's gonna make today. 73 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: Great well, and that's what we'll talk about over the 74 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: course of the show. Lots going on in the sporting 75 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: universe as a let off with We've got the transfer 76 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: portal fun and nil battles and coaches speaking out there. 77 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 2: The final day of the NBA regular season, the stars 78 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: you like probably aren't playing. There's a game you can 79 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: get in for three dollars today, Dan, whatever form of 80 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City Thunder are playing whatever form of the 81 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 2: New Orleans Pelicans. Maybe you get to play a couple 82 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 2: of minutes in the fourth quarter when the things really 83 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: get out of hand. But all of that to say, 84 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: this has so much anticipation. It's the I think most 85 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 2: we've kind of talked about golf in this positive not 86 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: that background stuff, right, the battles and finances and ratings 87 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 2: like those always come in. Because I haven't heard a 88 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 2: lot of the crying of well, we don't have Tiger 89 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 2: this time around. It might be the first year in 90 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: a very long time that that is not even on 91 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: the radar. I only mention it because of it's absence, 92 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,239 Speaker 2: as has been so so deafening in that we've got 93 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: great golf. We've got two guys who have had let's 94 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: say issues closing at times, even going back to uh 95 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: last year, Rory and Bryson at the US Open. That's 96 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: been talked about a bunch and they were kidding on 97 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 2: the range with each other, Uh, just coming into everything. 98 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 2: But why don't want to hear it from the competitors 99 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: as we get ready for the final round to really 100 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 2: set the scene like the boxers. 101 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 5: Time you two met, it was at the US Open, 102 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 5: it did not go your way. And how satisfying is 103 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 5: it to have this rematch tomorrow? And what will it 104 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 5: take to get it done? 105 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: Yeah? 106 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 6: I think the big thing is not to make it 107 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 6: a rematch, Stay in my own, my own little world. 108 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 6: There's you know, there's there's a few other people on 109 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 6: that leaderboard that could make a run, you know, So 110 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,679 Speaker 6: I just have to to do what I've been doing, 111 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 6: you know, as I like sort of surround myself and 112 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 6: my own little cocoon and just get into my own 113 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 6: little bubble. And you know, he'll do what he does, 114 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 6: and and you know, I just have to stay firm 115 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 6: and yeah, just just stay in my own little world. 116 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 5: We all know what this rematch is from the US 117 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 5: Open last summer. How excited are you to go head 118 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 5: to head against Rory McElroy and the final pairing of 119 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 5: the Masters on Sunday? And what will it take for 120 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 5: you to get it done? 121 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 4: Well, first off, it's gonna take a lot of patience 122 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 4: to get it done. Second off, couldn't ask for anything more. 123 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 4: It's time you too. 124 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 3: That was nice and nice and concise. There. I'm glad 125 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 3: to be here. 126 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 4: He's a showman, he knows, he knows what's going on. 127 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 4: It was funny because when you see the tweets out 128 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 4: there and there are livebots that send stuff out. Sure, 129 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 4: let's say that Rory is trying to trying to hide 130 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 4: and Bryson's like, bring it on. They are in different situations, 131 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 4: Mike in terms of entering, like, Bryson has every reason 132 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 4: to engage. If Rory goes out and shoots sixty six 133 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 4: on Sunday, there's really nothing that Bryson can do about 134 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 4: it except try to shoot sixty four six three in 135 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 4: the final round of a Master's on Sunday, which, newsflash, 136 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 4: isn't the easiest thing to do, especially when you're a 137 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,559 Speaker 4: competitor in that final grouping is is playing so well, 138 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 4: but you could have that duel. We've seen it before, 139 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 4: philm Michelson, Hendrick Stinton at the Open Championship a little 140 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 4: less than a decade ago. It was basically them and 141 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,119 Speaker 4: everybody else. I don't think that's the There are Corey 142 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 4: Connors's four shots back, but realistically it's them, two and Mike. 143 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 4: For Rory just to stay in his head, I think 144 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 4: that's the biggest part of it is he needs to 145 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 4: play his own game. He needs to not focus on things, 146 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 4: he needs to not get too excited. And when he 147 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 4: started off with that great start eagle on two yesterday, 148 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 4: very very composed. He birdied one, then eagle the second 149 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 4: hole had a string of threes on the scorecard, which 150 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 4: any golfer would absolutely love it. I mean yes, I 151 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 4: mean it's one off the record that at Augusta National 152 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 4: seven is the all time record. Jody Mudd is what 153 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 4: they said on the broadcast. There's a name. There could 154 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 4: be a PGA Tour card from the back of the day, 155 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 4: Mike Carmon. But the point is is Rory does have 156 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 4: the two shot lead in and it's not a safe 157 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 4: lead by any means. But again, if Rory continues to 158 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 4: play how he's going to play, Bryson's going to have 159 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 4: to do something special. So it would be good for 160 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 4: Bryson to maybe get into Rory's head a little bit 161 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 4: or try to bring back some of those demons from 162 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 4: fourteen years ago, so there could be some gamesmanship. I 163 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 4: expect to see a very volatile Bryson today to try 164 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 4: to shake Rory from that, and for Bryson to try 165 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 4: to get the fans on his side, which they will 166 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 4: be if you start playing well. I think everybody on 167 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 4: the planet it seems like, wants this to happen with Rory. 168 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: But when you're in the arena and the crowd is there, 169 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 4: and we saw it on sixteen yesterday. We saw it 170 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 4: on eighteen yesterday when Bryson ended up making birdie on 171 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 4: both of those holes. The crowd will be on your side, 172 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 4: and Bryson's not a villain. They'll they'll now cheer for him. 173 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 4: So it's going to be it's going to be great theater, Mike. 174 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: I mean it truly, truly is. I'm sitting here tossing 175 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 4: it up and I'm thinking, all right, where how can 176 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 4: we find this a little pathway in this niche to 177 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 4: encapsulate how big today is. And I came up with this. 178 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 4: I said, Rory is chasing history because he's trying to 179 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 4: complete the career Grand Slam Bryson, trying to make his 180 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 4: own history, which he's done in the game of golf, 181 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 4: and trying to carve his own path in that way. 182 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 4: If Bryson wins today, it's his third major, but it's 183 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 4: not going to change the shape of golf. Rory's would. 184 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 4: But for Bryson to get a third major and to 185 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 4: now be that star and to be competitive and pretty 186 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 4: much every major that you've had for the last year 187 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 4: and winning two of them, man, that's big time stardom 188 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 4: and for a guy that does it his own way. 189 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 4: For Bryson to do that and then do this on 190 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 4: the biggest stage and again on a day where people 191 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 4: think it's the most important day in golf in ninety years, 192 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 4: that would say something. I mean, it's really gonna be fun. 193 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think a lot of it is also where 194 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 2: they're positioned. Right, If Rory's two shots back, the narrative 195 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 2: is completely different. 196 00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 7: Mm hmm. 197 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: Right now, it's all right, we invoke every memory of 198 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 2: twenty eleven. We talked about last year in the US Open. 199 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 2: Here's the pairing, and you know, we played that clip 200 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: of Rory Dan I heard several others where he either 201 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: talks about in his own world or in his own bubble. 202 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: So the whole idea of a crowd getting rattled and Bryson, 203 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: you know, maybe needling and playing for the purposes of 204 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: this conversation to wwe heel to try to, you know, 205 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 2: get use the gamesmanship of it all is certainly the. 206 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 3: Way I saw. 207 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 2: The last couple holes were funny for d Chambeau and 208 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: that it reminded me a lot of the first Happy Gilmour. 209 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 2: Can't wait to see what the sequel does, But it's 210 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: the All right, there's the crowd fired up and ready 211 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 2: to go. At every turn he's high five and everybody 212 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 2: making sure he goes back and doesn't miss anybody. 213 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 3: Some of it. 214 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: You've got the let's call it what it is, the USA. 215 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 2: The thing will be a chanter quite a bit today. Hey, right, 216 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 2: what is interesting when you look at the leader board 217 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: if you look at the first what is it seven 218 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 2: names in succession, all different nations represented, with one doubling. 219 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 3: When you've got Deschambeau and Patrick Reid. 220 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 4: Oh wow, so yeah, Sweden, Canada, Rory from Northern Ireland, 221 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 4: Shane Lowry representing Ireland. 222 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you've got You've got a lot of different things 223 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 2: up on the top of the board. Four shots behind 224 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: is Connors in third, shooting sixty eight on the opening round, 225 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: seventy and seventy. Well let's go back to Thursday. Well, 226 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 2: we've got plenty of time to really flesh this out. 227 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 2: We've got some betting odds plus six fifty and I'm 228 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 2: just gonna nod and wink. I may have a very 229 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: small I can get a cup of coffee bet on Rory. Okay, good, 230 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 2: So you know, just calling it what it is. Yeah, 231 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: But for today, We've got some interesting action along the 232 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 2: way because you can bet on whether guys finish in 233 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: the top ten or outside. The odds get kind of 234 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 2: interesting as you go down the road there. But we'll 235 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 2: take me back to Thursday. Right we're watching and Rose 236 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: gets off to that huge start. We get a little 237 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: bit of Freddie Couples, and that's certainly something Smith and 238 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: I celebrated a bit. He went back to in the 239 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: time vault to his time at ESPN when he was 240 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 2: cut in highlights and fred Couples highlights actually helped make 241 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 2: him a favorite of people on staff. So he told 242 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 2: that story in painstaking detail. But all of that, I mean, 243 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: it was just feel good Thursday right off the jump, 244 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: and it hasn't let down, which is, you know, strange 245 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 2: in our sporting events, we don't normally get that anticipation 246 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: of day one to where it delivers. It. 247 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 4: Every turned in correct, and you had a great story 248 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 4: in Justin Rose, and now that story kind of fizzled 249 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 4: on Saturday. But you think of Justin Rose, who so 250 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 4: many times we saw the graphic I think has had 251 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 4: ten leads, had been in the lead in at Augusta 252 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 4: at least ten times in his career and never is 253 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 4: never won. And so now all of a sudden, you're saying, 254 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 4: and he had a what I think of three shot 255 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 4: lead heading into Friday, you're thinking, again, three shot lead 256 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 4: after eighteen holes is nothing when it comes to golf. 257 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 4: But maybe if Justin Rose is playing well, maybe there's 258 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 4: a unique special story there for a guy who was 259 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 4: close so many times lost in a playoff the Sergio 260 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 4: Garcia eight years ago. So he's been knocking on the door. 261 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 4: I think that factor of it. I think the way 262 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 4: that Rory even kind of collapsed on Thursday. And when 263 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 4: I call it a collapse, I'm talking three bad shots, 264 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 4: but they give you a double bogie on fifteen, the 265 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 4: one that he put in the water, and then on 266 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 4: seventeen he hit a bad chip and then missed a 267 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 4: short putt for bogie on the comeback to part putt 268 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 4: really wasn't any good. You can't leave yourself those situations. 269 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 4: Imagine if Rory just doesn't have one of those double bogies. 270 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 4: Now he's cruising in with a four shot lead like 271 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 4: he did fourteen years ago. But even at that point, 272 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 4: when you were looking at what Thursday was, there was 273 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 4: so many stories Bernard Longer, you know, for him playing 274 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 4: in his final Masters and his story continued into Friday. 275 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 4: It was a really good feel and Mike in the 276 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 4: world of like negotiations with the PGA Tour and live 277 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 4: Golf and them not having an agreement and seemingly not 278 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 4: coming close to an agreement. This is the most that 279 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 4: golf has felt together in a long time, and short's 280 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 4: the Masters. The Masters has that special, unique feel, but 281 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 4: still there there are pieces of it that do seem detached, 282 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: Like Phil Michelson isn't like viewed as the great Masters Champions. 283 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 4: He was in TV coverage. Maybe you'll see him on 284 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 4: a shot here or there. But just to your point 285 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 4: about what they do with Freddie Couples, like, look at 286 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 4: how much he's adored, And you can show fred Couples 287 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 4: as much as you want on the broadcast, right and 288 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 4: people are gonna love it. Means he's gonna be Jawn 289 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 4: back with fans in a jovial sort of way. It's 290 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 4: good for that stuff. I think that the Masters does 291 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 4: bring everybody together at least at some point, even though 292 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 4: it's a limited field. But yeah, it's been a really 293 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 4: good three days. I'm just I'm hoping that today works out, 294 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 4: but right from the get go it's been really good. 295 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: Well, we get that fun contrast that you know is 296 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 2: latent in the background now front and center with Deshambeau 297 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 2: and McElroy at the top. Dan of the effect on 298 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: playing and live versus being on the tour mentally, physically, 299 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: all of those things that go through, right, John Rahm 300 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 2: had a great first half of round two. He's an afterthought, right, 301 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 2: He's already teed off long ago, well ahead. 302 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 3: Of the leaders on the board for us. 303 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 4: Yeah. 304 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, so he barely made it after what looked like 305 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: at least for the first five or six holes on Friday. 306 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, maybe he gives a little bit 307 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 2: of charge. I know there was a you know, he 308 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 2: was a popular choice for folks in the betting markets 309 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: and the what if kind of city scenarios. But it's 310 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 2: just that Deschambeau comes back. Some might wonder how much 311 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: looser you play when hey, look a lot of the 312 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: guys at the leader board, let's call it what it is, 313 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 2: Rory and company aren't starving. But when you've secured that 314 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 2: massive bag, how much that helps to just go and 315 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 2: grip and rip it gosh. 316 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 4: I think it's such a great point because we want 317 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 4: to look at the leader board and you want to 318 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 4: point out how all the live players did as opposed 319 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 4: to the non love players. So that's not really fair 320 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 4: because you know there's only seven or so live players 321 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 4: in this field. But when you look at how the 322 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 4: certain live players fared, like John Rahm, who many people 323 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 4: feel that him going to live has zapped that natural 324 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 4: energy out of you or out of him and out 325 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 4: of his career right now. And if you had the 326 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 4: opportunity to go back and make a different decision, then 327 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 4: maybe he would. For someone like Bryson, I think it's 328 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 4: freed Bryson up. Bryson now could do all of his 329 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 4: YouTube content, all of the stuff that he loves to 330 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 4: do is breaking fifty series. All of that I think 331 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 4: is added to Bryson's arsenal Terrel Hatton is a guy 332 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 4: who is now He was in the top ten at 333 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,239 Speaker 4: some point yesterday. I think he's now top twenty. Kind 334 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 4: of fell off yesterday. He's played better in these championships 335 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 4: now that he's gone on live. Patrick Reed is Patrick Reed, 336 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 4: a Master's champion, can work his way around. It's different 337 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 4: for everybody. While I'm not a Live fan, I don't 338 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 4: think I can make a blanket statement at all with 339 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 4: any of these players and what Live has done with 340 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 4: them in the majors, because I think it has absolutely 341 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 4: helped Bryson to Shamba. And you mentioned John Rahm, he's 342 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 4: teeing off with Jackie Neeman. Neeman was one of the 343 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 4: top favorites heading into it. Didn't have the greatest weekend 344 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 4: that he would have hoped, but still everybody's all over 345 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 4: the board, just like it is on the PGA Tour. 346 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 4: So you just got to find where you're comfortable and 347 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 4: you'll have success. And I think that's actually what's helped 348 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 4: Bryson so much in his career. 349 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 2: Huge Day Ahead will circle back into the PGA Tour, 350 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: the Masters at Augusta. We'll see if we can get 351 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 2: a live look in from Buyer Cabin, as it's been 352 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: dubbed for the weekend in the Twitter verse at Buyer 353 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: on Fog Dan Byron Fox is where you find Dan. 354 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 2: You find me over at Swollen Dumb having a blast 355 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 2: you This morning, We've got Chris Purfett, We've got Shay, 356 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 2: We've got our guy Ilo at the news desk.

Not really a discussion point, Dan, 358 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 2: but would be remiss if we didn't at least acknowledge 359 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 2: the passing of Kyra and Lacy this morning. LSU receiver 360 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 2: heading into the draft, fifty eight catches, nearly nine hundred yards, 361 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 2: nine touchdowns, details little little murky at this point. But 362 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: all that to say, check in on your people. We're 363 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 2: talking about holidays and talking about big moments.

One great, 408 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,239 Speaker 2: are two great. One where I was like, all right, 409 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 2: just singing. Other say stop pandering to the crowd. I 410 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,719 Speaker 2: don't care whether that end zones louder than that end 411 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 2: zone sing a damn song. 412 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 4: I was. It's it is. It is something else when 413 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 4: you can fill out stadiums like he could. But again, 414 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 4: just the fervor of of those songs and those albums 415 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 4: and those hits, just it was. It was even bigger 416 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 4: than you would think it was if even if you're 417 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 4: sitting there watching them selling out stadiums. 418 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 3: It's just right. 419 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 2: The fact that they've been able to do so many repackagings, reissuings. 420 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 3: He's got his own. I forget what the I don't 421 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 3: want to give him a plug because I I don't 422 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 3: remember the name. 423 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 4: Of the the the. 424 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 3: Platform, but where they talk about the music. 425 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 2: Hey, buy you know it's not quite qvc ish, Uh, 426 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 2: you know, but it is qvc ish, I should say, 427 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 2: it's not the same kind of thing.

And and you know 463 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 2: the old adage of h be careful what you wish, 464 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 2: because sometimes dreams come true. That was another country uh 465 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 2: song that I can't recall the artist at the moment. Uh, 466 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 2: but just going on down the line. Doesn't show up 467 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: for some workouts, didn't show up Friday. Everybody claps their 468 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 2: hands Vegas blackjag dealer style and says, well, he's no 469 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 2: longer here. Reports are that couldn't come to an agreement 470 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 2: in his nil on the negotiations and renegotiations for the 471 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 2: new year, because that's one of the sticking points of it, 472 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 2: is like are there contracts that still are to be 473 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 2: paid out? Because that's where we get into some of 474 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 2: the sticky wickets on some of this stuff, Dan. But 475 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: ultimately it's a final He's off into the portal and 476 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 2: now you get the giant list of would be suitors 477 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 2: on the board. 478 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 4: It's crazy, But I don't think it's as crazy, Mike 479 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,479 Speaker 4: as we feel that it is, because we're in this 480 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 4: hurricane of it. If you will, like this the last 481 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 4: seventy two hours has been has been crazy. What I 482 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 4: actually think is is crazier. And the reason why I 483 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 4: think it's we think it's crazy is because it's with 484 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 4: a notable name, something that I actually picked to win 485 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 4: the Heisman last year because I thought Josh Heipel that 486 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,959 Speaker 4: offense you're in the sec you know, lookout world, here 487 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 4: comes Nico didn't happen for him, didn't. Really, I'm closed 488 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 4: to even being a Heisman candidate. So bad job by me, 489 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 4: but still sec program in a high octane offense, a 490 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 4: school that ends up making the playoffs, and you have 491 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 4: him leave like that's just it doesn't doesn't make sense. 492 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 4: Maybe you thought you would see this, I don't know, 493 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 4: in the Big twelve at like k State, you know, 494 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 4: something like that. Maybe maybe that would be something. But 495 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 4: I actually think two things. Number One, remember when UNLV 496 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 4: quarterback Matthew Sluca transferred to UNLV and then quit after 497 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 4: three games because they bailed on his NIL promises. 498 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 3: Must be a couple grand, right, yeah, your grand or 499 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 3: something was the report that. 500 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 4: To me is ten times crazier than what this is. 501 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 4: That's mid season and that's the NIL people not coming 502 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 4: through on their stuff. This is all the stuff that 503 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 4: people wanted when we wanted to play. You know, let's 504 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 4: pay players, let's pay everybody. This is going to be. 505 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 4: This is one of those sort of dominoes. Somebody wants more, 506 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 4: somebody thinks they can get more from somewhere else, then 507 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 4: go do it. And the funny thing, Mike, I don't 508 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 4: even think it's NIL that's the problem. I actually think 509 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 4: it's the rules in the transfer portal that allows these 510 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 4: athletes to be eligible immediately. Remember back in the day 511 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 4: when you had you were in football, you were in basketball. 512 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 4: If you transferred somewhere, you had to sit out. 513 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 3: A year getting out. Yeah. 514 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 4: So now you pay these players and then you allow 515 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 4: them to be eligible and be ready to play right away, 516 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 4: You're gonna get stuff like this. So I'm not as shocked. 517 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 4: I actually think the Sluka thing at unlv IS was 518 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 4: super crazy. They were three and oher and he's like, 519 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 4: all right, see you later. I'm leaving because you guys 520 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 4: didn't you know, do your deal right. But that's what 521 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 4: we've gotten college sports. I've seen a lot of I 522 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 4: blame the NCAA and I blame I blame them for 523 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 4: not getting the rules. This is this is all set up. 524 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,360 Speaker 4: Everybody's to blame. This is an absolute mess because everybody's 525 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 4: trying to make out for their for their for their 526 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 4: own good of it. Nico yama Liava is going to 527 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 4: be a footnote in Tennessee history because of this, not 528 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 4: for anything that he did on us on the football field. 529 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 4: Tennessee will be able to recover. They'll move on. I 530 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 4: don't know where Nico ends up going. Mike but everybody's 531 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 4: got something to blame or their own portion of blame 532 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 4: for this happening. 533 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 2: Tennessee's win total for the year went down one and 534 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 2: at the books went from nine and a half to 535 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 2: eight and a half. For what it's worth, announced his 536 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 2: commitment back in March of twenty twenty two, three year 537 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 2: deal reported eight million dollars and now he and his 538 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 2: representatives mostly family, right, so we we have that element 539 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 2: that works in. But all of that to say, uh, 540 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 2: there's been a lot of his teammates are gonna be pissed, 541 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 2: Like you don't think he's been talking to. 542 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 3: His teammates and they wouldn't do the same thing. Right again, 543 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 3: it's it's a lot of sure sanctimonious folks standing around 544 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 3: pointing fingers when they'd walk across the street for a 545 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 3: nickel an hour more. Yes, all working conditions the same. Wait, 546 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 3: I'm gonna get five cents more and there you go. 547 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 3: It's an extra couple off a week. 548 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 4: I saw somebody else put out on social media other 549 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 4: places of listing Josh Heipel's resume of the different jobs 550 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 4: that he has been at, saying like why can't Nico 551 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 4: do this? And yeah, you're exactly right there. Yeah, that's 552 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 4: that's fine. Coaches can leave, players can leave, But there's 553 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 4: also at some point, Mike, and this is why we 554 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 4: don't like it when coaches leave after say one year. 555 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 4: Maybe we could say, well, how often does blank job 556 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 4: open up for you to take? But there is a commitment. 557 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 4: There is something when you sit down and you and 558 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 4: you agree to play for that team or coach that team, 559 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 4: that you do expect a little bit more. And I 560 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 4: think that's the toughest part about this, And it's the 561 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 4: part that I truly think that people are afraid to 562 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 4: say because they don't want to seem like they're anti 563 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 4: player or anti being paid. But there is something about 564 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 4: seeing that player be at a specific spot for you know, 565 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 4: a couple of years or committee elsewhere. I was told 566 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 4: early on in my profession, look out for number one, 567 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 4: and it stuck with me forever. Look out for myself 568 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 4: and do what's best for myself. And it's different though 569 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 4: with college sports, and it's different for like fans when 570 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 4: they look at it, I guess this is Nico's job 571 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 4: in a way, so he's looking out for number one. 572 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 4: I can't hate that, do I like how he was 573 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 4: leveraging other schools. Secretly, I don't think that's the greatest 574 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 4: of deals. But how are you going to find out 575 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 4: what your market's worth? You call? Yeah, yeah, So I 576 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 4: just I just have a really difficult time being mad 577 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 4: at anybody for this because I'm just not surprised by 578 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 4: any of this, and to come out with a blaming 579 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 4: of of Mark Emmert and the NCAA and they should have. 580 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 4: Nobody thought that it would come to this. I'm sorry, 581 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 4: nobody would. And if you put rules in place and 582 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 4: you have other things in place for something like this, 583 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 4: there would be another thing that happens that would be like, well, 584 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 4: we didn't account for that. Now we've got to figure out. 585 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 4: It's once you decided to start to pay the players, 586 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 4: and once you decided to banish the one year weight 587 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 4: other schools, you could transfer and be active right away, 588 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 4: but football and basketball you couldn't. Now it's all allowed, 589 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 4: But once you lend those two worlds together, this is 590 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 4: what you got in college sports. And it stinks because 591 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 4: there does seem to be some abandoned loyalty there. But 592 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 4: that's what we get with nil and transferport well. 593 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 2: But that said, as soon as money gets involved, and 594 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,479 Speaker 2: let's not you know, you and I are not babes 595 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: in the woods in this and naive when we're born 596 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: last night. Money's been floating around forever, plenty of reports 597 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: of everything that went on at UCLA and other colleges 598 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 2: from decades ago. So it's you know, it's just you've 599 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 2: taken the reins off and there's more zeros. 600 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 4: And I think your point is well put, especially when 601 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,719 Speaker 4: you talk about some of those great programs because they 602 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 4: had players excel. I don't think you would look at 603 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 4: last year and again I picked Nico to win the Heisman. 604 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 4: He wasn't even close to the conversation. He only had 605 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 4: one one or two games where even sniffed around three 606 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 4: hundred yards, never threw from more than three hundred yards. 607 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 4: There's the highlight of him running out of bounds against Arkansas. 608 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 4: Like there's listen, if Nico is worth four million dollars 609 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 4: at Tennessee, there would be a booster that would pay 610 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 4: him four million dollars at Tennessee to keep him there. 611 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 4: There's no doubt about it. Like there's that aspect of 612 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 4: it too, Mike, Right, Like Tennessee kind of sees what 613 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 4: they have. This is he was not a top five 614 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 4: player in college football this past year. It's not the 615 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 4: bidding war that you think it is. I actually think 616 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 4: it's more of all right, he wants this much when 617 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 4: guess what this school probably doesn't even think he's worth 618 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 4: that much. 619 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: Well, and that's it, right, So you start hearing the rumblings, 620 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 2: they come back with the number, and you get to 621 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: right right from where you are. Most of the time 622 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 2: it's the right of refusal and the ability to match 623 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 2: at least, and in this case, I think you know 624 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 2: your point of going back to UNLV was probably the 625 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 2: one that needs to be underscored. Is the reason this 626 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 2: is the big, big deal is it's a big name 627 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 2: from an SEC school, right because the other was a 628 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 2: story for about two weeks and then we got back 629 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 2: into football. All right, what the big ten and SEC 630 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 2: gonna do? And now here I headed the transfer portal 631 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 2: where oh yeah, hundreds of guys are gonna leave for 632 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 2: other schools because. 633 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 3: Why they can get more money. 634 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 4: He's Dan Bayer, amazing, I'm. 635 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 3: Mike Carbon It's they weren't three. 636 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 4: And oh when he left to say goodbye. I don't 637 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 4: blame him that. 638 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 2: Everybody's got a price at Dan Byer on Fox where 639 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 2: you find and find me over at Swollen Dome. 640 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 3: Now let's turn it over our guy, Isaac. 641 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 2: Loewencron to set the scene coming off a huge Angel 642 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: City victory. You gotta look follow him at Isaac Lohenkron, 643 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 2: hear all of his tremendous. 644 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 3: At tri NWSL action.

While the regular 704 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 4: season has yet to conclude, conclude that means that teams 705 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,720 Speaker 4: haven't yet made the playoffs. They may have clinched the playoffs. 706 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 4: But for the sake of this argument, they have not 707 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 4: been in the playoffs.

A little bit later on now we 780 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 2: see operations shut down for some teams. I alluded to 781 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 2: the fact if you ever wanted to go to an 782 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 2: NBA game, if you're not a golf enthusiast, Dan Byer, 783 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 2: today is today because there's a lot of games you 784 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,720 Speaker 2: can get in for under twenty bucks. 785 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 4: That's crazy, but it makes sense. The entire East is settled, 786 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 4: and I don't say half the West, but at least 787 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 4: the top three spots in the West have all been settled. 788 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 4: A lot to play for in the middle of it, 789 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 4: that's for sure, but I give it a lot of arenas. 790 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 4: It's kind of like Week eighteen in the NFL. MIC, 791 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 4: I've told you it's my least favorite week because it's 792 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 4: just the games that don't matter. They remind me of 793 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 4: preseason games at times, and it's kind of that feel 794 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 4: with the NBA regular season wrapping. 795 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 3: No question about it. 796 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 2: We're broadcasting live from the tire rack dot com studios 797 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 2: tire act dot com.

The way tire buying 800 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 2: should be now. As we look at the marketplace this morning, 801 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 2: Dan Roy McElroy is a minus one eighty five favorite, 802 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 2: Bryson Dischambeau at plus two twenty five, and then it 803 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 2: jumps out to Corey Connors at sixteen to one. So 804 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 2: from the betting perspective, it's a two man race. Are 805 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,720 Speaker 2: you confident that that's what we're talking about? That final 806 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 2: pairing and it's just eighteen holes and everything else just 807 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 2: goes to the wayside. 808 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 4: I if if it's not two, it's it's really only three, 809 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 4: because I was just even looking at this scores MIC 810 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 4: and Hideki Matsuyama is currently five under par on his round. 811 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 4: He's a former Masters Champion, so he's getting around pretty well. 812 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 4: You're gonna have to You're gonna have to shoot a 813 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 4: good score to be able to move up. And with 814 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:28,320 Speaker 4: McElroy at twelve under and Deshambo at ten and Connor's 815 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 4: at eight, you have that group at six under par 816 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 4: sitting there. So you have Patrick Reed, Ludwig Goldberg, and 817 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 4: then even behind that, Scotty Scheffler's at five under Jason Day. 818 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 4: You'll even if Scotty Scheffler withoot five under par, he 819 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,839 Speaker 4: still doesn't catch Rory mclroy. I don't know if if 820 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 4: Ludvig Goldberg's got a sixty four in him, but if 821 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 4: it does, it puts him to fourteen under par and 822 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 4: definitely puts him in the mix for it. But realistically, 823 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 4: if it's not two, it's only three. But I really 824 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 4: think that it's only gonna be two today, So what's. 825 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 3: The don't have anticipation for you here as it is 826 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 3: ready for this. 827 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 4: It is really really exciting, and I think, like so 828 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 4: many of us, I know you have a little skin 829 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 4: in the game you mentioned earlier with Rory McElroy. I 830 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 4: think that I think that everybody wants to see Rory 831 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 4: win or most everybody does. And it's not that they're 832 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 4: rooting against Bryson, it's that they want it for Rory. 833 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 4: And I know that's not a sports talk angle that resonates, 834 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 4: but it's the point of this is there are so 835 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 4: many people that are that want this to happen for Rory, Mike, 836 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 4: and rarely, rarely in sports, is that appetite satisfied or 837 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,400 Speaker 4: is that thirst quenched by something that is wanted to 838 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 4: happen so much? I take Super Bowls just talking football 839 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 4: a little bit, making a reference to Week eighteen, you 840 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 4: know how many times did we want to see and 841 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers versus Tom Brady Super Bowl. I know you're 842 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,760 Speaker 4: a Bears fan, so you don't to see the Packers 843 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,479 Speaker 4: in there, but that was ideal back in the day 844 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 4: Niners bills. How great would that have been? Never happened? 845 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 4: And that's the thing that worries me if you're a 846 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 4: Rory McElroy fan, is that rarely do these things actually 847 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 4: happen where everybody is happy that it happens. And that's 848 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 4: what I think brings in all of the other equations 849 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 4: of what's happened in the past. Mike, if you even 850 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 4: want to take what's happened over these last three days. 851 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 4: If you don't even want to take what happened yesterday, 852 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 4: look at the puts that Rory missed during his round 853 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 4: that he should have made, should have made a putt 854 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 4: on the ninth toll that he ended up missing, had 855 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 4: a bad stretch in the middle of his round, but 856 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,319 Speaker 4: was then able to able to rebound. When you look 857 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 4: at what Bryson did, Bryson nailed a bomb on one, 858 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 4: nail the bomb on eighteen. In fact, Bryson didn't even 859 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 4: hit the ball that well yesterday. He was just saved 860 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 4: by his short game, his ability to scramble and to 861 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 4: make long punch. Rory was spot on. So if even 862 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 4: look in the last twenty four hours, I think Rory 863 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 4: McElroy's playing much better golf than Bryson de Shamba is. 864 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 4: But how does that change in the pressure of a Sunday. 865 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 4: Does Bryson right is wrong? Did he find something on 866 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 4: the range last night? Do you say to yourself, you 867 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 4: know what, you can't play that bad for you know 868 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 4: this many games and he's not playing poorly, he's ten 869 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 4: under par, he's too hut Yeah, and so you're like Okay, 870 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:30,360 Speaker 4: is he going to find his Is he going to 871 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,720 Speaker 4: find his way? And with Rory, as we mentioned, Rory's 872 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 4: really hit on Thursday again, hit three bad shots a 873 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 4: bad ship on fifteen and a couple on seventeen, but 874 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,879 Speaker 4: otherwise he was nails. He was he was very very 875 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,720 Speaker 4: good on Thursday, and I would say that he outside 876 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,320 Speaker 4: of that put on nine and maybe another here or there. 877 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 4: He was magnificent yesterday. So you're like, can you hold 878 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 4: that up? That's those two voices on both sides of 879 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 4: your head that we've been talking about throughout the show, 880 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 4: as one says one thing and one says another. When 881 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 4: you take the pressure of the Masters on Sunday, it 882 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 4: changes everything. When you take those crowds and you take 883 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 4: the roar. Maybe the good thing is that Rory gets 884 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 4: to see what Bryson's doing and is it a group 885 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 4: behind and his hearing roarers and wondering what's going on 886 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 4: and getting in his head. He gets to see it firsthand. 887 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 4: But yeah, there's just so much at play. Rory is 888 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 4: playing better right now and it shows over these last 889 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 4: two rounds, but does that hold up under the pressure 890 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 4: on Sunday. That's what makes today so great. 891 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 2: No, that is the curiosity, right, and how much of 892 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:34,399 Speaker 2: an advantage is it to have Deschambeau playing right alongside him. 893 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 2: We've been talking about it, and the quote there repeatedly 894 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 2: talking about his own world, his own bubble, that just 895 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 2: strikes me, right, It just sticks with me because we 896 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 2: talk about especially the game of golf. Obviously you play 897 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 2: and follow on a much higher level than I do. 898 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 2: But just the round or two that I'll play in 899 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 2: a given year, or even going and hitting a bucket 900 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 2: of balls, the consistency, the mental aspect of it, of 901 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 2: keeping your consistency, which Rory did out of the gate yesterday, right, 902 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,840 Speaker 2: these six straight threes. A couple of folks started joking, 903 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 2: you know, you can hit a mid range every once 904 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 2: in a while, would be great. You know, hey, we 905 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 2: got we got a mixed sports wherever we can. But 906 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 2: just the idea of he played such a great round 907 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 2: overall save one or two holes that you know, can 908 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 2: you cancel the noise because again the guy is sitting 909 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 2: right next to you to mix and bring it in 910 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 2: these sports sports movie theom there's a the great part 911 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,400 Speaker 2: of the trilogy of baseball movies from Kevin Costner for 912 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 2: love of the game, if nothing else, you get it 913 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 2: narrated by Vin Scully. But it's all about he's pitching 914 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 2: a perfect game. His catcher's John c Riley. Yeah, that 915 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 2: guy from Step Brothers. Ah, he's everywhere. But the whole 916 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 2: thing is clear the mechanism. So you got all the 917 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 2: crowd and you acknowledge it whatever, and then when you 918 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 2: lock in, you need to be able to lock in. 919 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 3: And and I think that's the what's the total perse today? 920 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,320 Speaker 2: Four point two million dollars to the winner out of 921 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,839 Speaker 2: a twenty one million dollar pers that's a four point 922 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 2: two million dollar question today. Can Rory keep in his 923 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,760 Speaker 2: bubble in a safe space to get through this round? 924 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,479 Speaker 4: Well? What is? And you're one hundred percent right because 925 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 4: it's role reversal from twenty twenty four at the US Open, 926 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 4: when Bryce had actually had the lead going into the 927 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 4: final round and it was Rory who played so well 928 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 4: and got himself into contention and then had him put 929 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 4: himself in the driver's seat and then missed two short 930 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 4: putts on the last three holes to cost him the championship. 931 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 4: And we know that Bryson made his short putt that 932 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 4: he needed to make getting up and down from the 933 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 4: bunker on eighteen. There's a lot there, Mike, you were 934 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 4: there in twenty twenty three, Remember we broadcast live from 935 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 4: US Open at lacc Entering that day, Rory is sitting there, 936 00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 4: a shot back of Wyndham Clark and Ricky Fowler. For 937 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 4: the final round. Rory goes out Bertie's the first hole. 938 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 4: Everybody was burning the par five first that day and 939 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 4: then just went par power power, power, power, power, power, power, 940 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,719 Speaker 4: power power, got to the par five fourteenth, lost his 941 00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 4: ball in the bunker, ended up boging and that was it. 942 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 4: So he's kind of been in the come from behind 943 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 4: roll and had it stuck in neutral in twenty twenty three. 944 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 4: Last year, had it going but couldn't complete it at 945 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,719 Speaker 4: the end. We saw him with the four shot lead 946 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,720 Speaker 4: in twenty eleven. He's been in all of these spots. 947 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 4: I even said this week that I thought that it 948 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 4: would be better if Rory was, you know, five shots 949 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 4: back where he could just let it wheel and deal. 950 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 4: And now just kind of after thinking about him, almost 951 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 4: kind of just going back that it's just more about 952 00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 4: his game and the whole thing is staying in his 953 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 4: head is just about that. Because I don't think that 954 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 4: he was in twenty twenty three. I think that he 955 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 4: got frustrated in in just making par pow par par 956 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 4: and we saw last year just the short putts that 957 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 4: got in his head. He can't get wrapped up when 958 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 4: he chipped in on two. Yesterday, just a very muted 959 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 4: celebration when he hit his shot on fifteen where he 960 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 4: ended up making the go putt then after just a 961 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 4: little fist pump, but it wasn't anything demonstrative, and I 962 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 4: would expect you would see the same thing because he's 963 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 4: worked so hard on it with a sports psychologist and 964 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 4: you have to be and at least if Bryson's right 965 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,879 Speaker 4: in front of you, you know what he's doing. That 966 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 4: may make it difficult that times for Rory. But again, 967 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 4: at least his mind isn't wandering and he could just 968 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 4: focus on what is in front of him. I think 969 00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 4: that puts Rory at least in a decent situation this 970 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 4: time around, compared to maybe the other couple of times 971 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:33,600 Speaker 4: when Bryson wasn't in the same group that he was, 972 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 4: or Wyndham Clark and Ricky Follower a group behind him 973 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:37,720 Speaker 4: at LA Country Club. 974 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 2: Now, the final round score Deshambo McElroy over under seventy 975 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 2: and a half. 976 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 4: I would say under because Rory even said yesterday somebody said, hey, 977 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,359 Speaker 4: when you talk about these great low rounds, and Rory said, well, 978 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 4: sixty six, He's like, it's not super low. He goes, 979 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 4: there's stuff out there that you can get if you 980 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,919 Speaker 4: just if you execute correctly. Bryson infamously years back, when 981 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,400 Speaker 4: nobody liked Bryson called Augusta national a par sixty seven 982 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 4: because of his length and what he thought that he 983 00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 4: could do, and everybody chuckled, and he's walked back those comments. 984 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:21,360 Speaker 4: But I would say under, Mike, because they don't tighten 985 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 4: the screws out Augusta. They want you to get excited. 986 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 4: There's a lot of traditional whole locations that you'll see 987 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,200 Speaker 4: that you see every year on Sunday. You see the 988 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 4: same one on twelve, you see it on thirteen, you 989 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 4: see it on eighteen, and the only one that's different 990 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 4: is the one on sixteen that they've moved actually to 991 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 4: the back right of the green. Usually it's down low 992 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 4: in front of the bunker on the left side. We 993 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,360 Speaker 4: saw that pin placement yesterday and Bryson and others taking 994 00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 4: advantage of the slope. But this year they're honoring Jack 995 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 4: Nicholas's fiftieth Masters or the fifty year anniversary of his 996 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 4: fifth Green Jacket. So the pin's going to be back 997 00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 4: right where it was back then where Jack hit a 998 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 4: long putt to kind of to seal his fate and 999 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 4: lead him to that Green jacket. That's going to be different. 1000 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 4: But my point is is there's gonna be tricky pin placements, 1001 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 4: and then there's gonna be others that are for the taking. 1002 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 4: If you can hit the slope on two, if you 1003 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 4: can get your ball the funnel down on seven, there's 1004 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:18,840 Speaker 4: gonna be birdie and ego opportunities on those holes where 1005 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 4: those pins are favorable. So I'm saying under seventy because 1006 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 4: I think that there are birdies and eagles out there. 1007 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 2: Certainly a tough ticket, no question about it. Very short 1008 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 2: in the posts in the secondary market, oh my goodness, 1009 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 2: and you're going to end up losing losing any rights 1010 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 2: to come maybe even get into the grounds if you 1011 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 2: bought them through a secondary market place. But we're seeing 1012 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 2: in excess of sixteen to twenty thousand dollars for the 1013 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 2: few that did become avail out in I'll. 1014 00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:48,279 Speaker 4: Tell you, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you my 1015 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:51,439 Speaker 4: own story. So I'm not I think you probably did. 1016 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 4: But did you read the Darren Ravel article on the 1017 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 4: secondary market, and they Augusta Nashtall is now able to 1018 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:03,840 Speaker 4: track these badges and track them to the point where 1019 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,480 Speaker 4: if you buy a ticket on the secondary market, they 1020 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 4: can find you on the property and then have you. 1021 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,839 Speaker 3: Removed RFIDs baby. 1022 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 4: Right, yep. And when I had gone a couple of 1023 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,760 Speaker 4: times that I had bought this is about ten fifteen 1024 00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 4: years ago. Now a lot of the homes that they 1025 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 4: had next to the property at Augusta National have been 1026 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,760 Speaker 4: purchased by Augusta National and it's now where they park. 1027 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 4: But truly, Mike, I walked into the house of someone 1028 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 4: that was being rented out by the ticket agency that 1029 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 4: I purchased from. They had set up in the living room. 1030 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:39,359 Speaker 4: I went on a Sunday in twenty ten when Phil 1031 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 4: Mickelson won, and I went, I got my badge. And 1032 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 4: they're truly they're badges. They're plastic badges that you wear 1033 00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 4: for the week. What they do is they take your 1034 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,359 Speaker 4: credit card because the badges used then the next day 1035 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 4: for the person and if you don't return it, then 1036 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,359 Speaker 4: you're charged the you know whatever, you know, the ten 1037 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 4: thousand dollars it would have cost, whatever the case may be. 1038 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:04,399 Speaker 4: But it also allow forces the person to bring back 1039 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:07,960 Speaker 4: the badge after each day. Mike, I was on a Sunday, 1040 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 4: so nobody was going to use it the next day, 1041 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 4: and I asked them, I said, can I just keep this? 1042 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,319 Speaker 4: Then they said no, we need you to bring it 1043 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 4: back and I was like, wow, this is crazy. So 1044 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 4: after the Masters, after Phil Micholson wins, I walked back 1045 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 4: into the house and drop my badge off, and you know, 1046 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,800 Speaker 4: they clear everything away and I'm released from the badge. 1047 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 4: But it was a whole deal. But it was so 1048 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 4: it was so foreign because of what Augusta is and 1049 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,960 Speaker 4: just people leaving town to rent their houses out that 1050 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:39,960 Speaker 4: you were renting them out to ticket places. But that's 1051 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,839 Speaker 4: that's how they did ten fifteen years ago, and now 1052 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 4: that's no longer the case. 1053 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:47,720 Speaker 2: Another story that I'll wake out at Swollendom, a ninety 1054 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 2: two year old that refused to sell the house. But 1055 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,120 Speaker 2: here's what I would wonder though, Dan, if you did 1056 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:56,160 Speaker 2: try to abscond with that badge as the final final day, 1057 00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 2: I'm leaving with it. It's worth it to me as 1058 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 2: a souvenir. Do you get a knock on the door, 1059 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 2: like David Baker would do to Pro Football Hall of 1060 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 2: Fame inductees, and all of a sudden he's standing outside. 1061 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 2: All of a sudden, here's, you know, one of the 1062 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 2: representatives in a couple of hired goons. 1063 00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 3: We need the badge back. 1064 00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 4: I don't think I would have made the plane back, 1065 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 4: you know. And plus, honestly, I don't trust some of 1066 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 4: the secondary market ticket people. So like I was happy, 1067 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 4: I wanted my thumbs, and so I figured I would 1068 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:26,680 Speaker 4: take it back. But I thought it would be a 1069 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 4: cool souvenir. When you get chosen in the Master's Lottery 1070 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 4: that they have each year, you sign up in June 1071 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 4: and then they draw for tickets in July and most 1072 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 4: people get denied. But when you sign up for that, 1073 00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 4: you get basically it's a cardboard paper ticket, So that 1074 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,720 Speaker 4: one's just it's just for the day. But the truly 1075 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,760 Speaker 4: the badges, while they call them the Master's badges because 1076 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 4: they're good for the week, and that's what they're really 1077 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 4: really cracking down on. But people wanted that plastic badge 1078 00:55:56,400 --> 00:56:00,200 Speaker 4: that said, you know, April seventh through the you know 1079 00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 4: thirteenth for that week, and the people who sold it 1080 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:07,240 Speaker 4: wanted it back for their own for their own memorabilia. 1081 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 4: It would have been nice to have Phil Michels since 1082 00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 4: Third Master's badge, but unfortunately don't have it. 1083 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 3: There you go. 1084 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:16,400 Speaker 2: It's also a guy in Revel that he specializes in 1085 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 2: all the ticket and the second side of the marketplace. 1086 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 2: We all know a little bit about cards. He's taken 1087 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 2: it to a whole other level.

I can't do it 1126 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 2: because Nance has been so jacked up the first three 1127 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 2: days of this tournament. It's like a he seems like 1128 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,960 Speaker 2: he's got a lot more energy here and he's a 1129 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 2: little less restrained since announcing his eleven year retirement plan. 1130 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:38,320 Speaker 4: Well, I suppose now that he doesn't have to call 1131 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:41,040 Speaker 4: the final four. He just just coming off of the 1132 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 4: great run by Houston in heartbreak at the end. But 1133 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:47,520 Speaker 4: I guess the energy Mike is there because he hadn't 1134 00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,160 Speaker 4: been working, you know, those last three weeks. He was 1135 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 4: just along for the ride and having fun and now 1136 00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,959 Speaker 4: he wants to to, you know, put his gusto on it. Plus, 1137 00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,959 Speaker 4: there's no more Vernon Ludquist. Remember vern retired last year. 1138 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,000 Speaker 4: So Ants is like the elder statementsman. So maybe he's 1139 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 4: giddy about that. 1140 00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 3: There you go. 1141 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 2: He's he is the the name, the face and everything 1142 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,720 Speaker 2: that we expect.

Hopefully the pizza has 1147 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 2: been ordered and bought. 1148 00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:33,280 Speaker 4: They're sitting there. You go. 1149 00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 2: Everything is set. Yeah, beautiful times. One collectible note, If 1150 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 2: anybody can find me a garden gnome for far less 1151 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 2: than the four hundred dollars that they're going for on 1152 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:48,920 Speaker 2: the secondary market, I'd appreciate it four for a fifty dollars, right, 1153 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 2: But it's like that damn chicken jockey popcorn bucket I was. 1154 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 4: I was able to go three years ago. We went 1155 00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 4: on Wednesday, and Mike, so by the time you get 1156 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 4: if you have tickets on Sunday, the merchandise area is 1157 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 4: usually picked over pretty well. Sure, so you have to 1158 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 4: get the gnomes early.

If again, if I had twelve 1318 01:07:57,640 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 10: it's good beers. 1319 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the the sandwiches at a 1320 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,160 Speaker 2: buck fifty give us a nice start. 1321 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:07,840 Speaker 4: Otherwise, there are people that will not keep their souvenir cup, 1322 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 4: so that also means there are other people who will 1323 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 4: take their souvenir cup. You talk about the snake cups 1324 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 4: at Wrigley Field, mic, there are some of those at 1325 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 4: the Masters. People just looking for random cups that they 1326 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:20,679 Speaker 4: have take home. 1327 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:25,400 Speaker 2: And yes, that's eBay cash all day long. That's to 1328 01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 2: pay for the next golf trip. There's no question about it. 1329 01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 2: All right, As we continue here, we got a couple 1330 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 2: of minutes before we need to get over to Ilo. 1331 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:36,720 Speaker 2: Here we got a cool baseball story to end the day. 1332 01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 2: But NBA Playoffs Eastern Conference, we talked about some of 1333 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:43,120 Speaker 2: the teams getting ready to make their run. The Detroit 1334 01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 2: Pistons having a big run. You see Portland. They're not 1335 01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,760 Speaker 2: in the playoffs, but they had a great improvement over 1336 01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:51,040 Speaker 2: a year ago and they re signed Chauncey Billups. 1337 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 3: That's in the background. 1338 01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:54,599 Speaker 2: But as we get through it, West four through eight 1339 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,600 Speaker 2: getting determined today to the point where the NBA, I 1340 01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:01,440 Speaker 2: think is sent out fifteen tweets in the last four hours. 1341 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:01,639 Speaker 3: On this dan. 1342 01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:05,040 Speaker 2: The Nuggets, who fired their coach Michael Malone, could finish 1343 01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:08,320 Speaker 2: anywhere between four and seven, Clippers, four or five or 1344 01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:11,880 Speaker 2: seven Warriors, and that's where we circle things. In the 1345 01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 2: six or seven spot, Timberwolves any spot four through eight, 1346 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:19,800 Speaker 2: and the grizz Let's face it, we've talked about them 1347 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,600 Speaker 2: a lot for all the wrong reasons. Taylor Jenkins and 1348 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,720 Speaker 2: the Ja Morant. Although I do think the grenades kind 1349 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:27,920 Speaker 2: of creative and kind of cool because as it hits 1350 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:30,559 Speaker 2: the crowd, they all jump up like they're doing the wave. 1351 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 2: But all of that to be said, the only one 1352 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 2: that really gets me excitable is if we can get 1353 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 2: the Warriors in the sixth spot. Steph Curry gonna try 1354 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 2: to play today, he's got the thumb injury. If they're 1355 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:43,839 Speaker 2: in the sixth spot, then we get them against the Lakers. 1356 01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:44,280 Speaker 3: Let's go. 1357 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:47,719 Speaker 4: There are sixteen scenarios out there in the Western Conference, 1358 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:51,720 Speaker 4: twelve of which have the Warriors in that sixth spot. Mike, 1359 01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 4: so I think that you may get your wish the 1360 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 4: other ones. The only place that Golden State can go 1361 01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,800 Speaker 4: is down to the seventh. Sure looks like Memphis is 1362 01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 4: going to be in that eight spot with the outside 1363 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:07,920 Speaker 4: chance of making it up to the seventh spot. I 1364 01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:10,839 Speaker 4: know people were hoping for maybe even a Clippers Lakers 1365 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:13,439 Speaker 4: show down. That's not gonna happen because the Clippers can't 1366 01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:15,040 Speaker 4: get the sixth seed. There are either a four or 1367 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,639 Speaker 4: five or seven. And because Michael Malone got fired, Chauncey 1368 01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 4: Billups gets a contract extension so he doesn't leave for Denver. 1369 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:24,280 Speaker 4: So good job Portland and good leverage coach. 1370 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:29,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Whereas everybody's going to the wall to deny 1371 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 2: that Danny Hurley might show up in Denver as a coach. Listen, 1372 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,360 Speaker 2: could he get another raise and leverage another raise after 1373 01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,080 Speaker 2: the season they had. 1374 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:44,760 Speaker 4: I understand that maybe the grass is now greener on 1375 01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 4: this side. But if you're turning down the Lakers, I mean, 1376 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,519 Speaker 4: love it or hate it. I don't know how you 1377 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:53,640 Speaker 4: turn on the Lakers and take the Nuggets job that 1378 01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:57,000 Speaker 4: would be that would be studied for decades. 1379 01:10:57,520 --> 01:10:59,120 Speaker 2: To be honest with you, Yeah, I was just the 1380 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:02,760 Speaker 2: question of what's real, what's imagined that starts leaking out 1381 01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,760 Speaker 2: based on sources, and who's trying to make themselves look 1382 01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:09,640 Speaker 2: good and look better, which is why I have a 1383 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:12,760 Speaker 2: lot of sub accounts, and I think ilow Man's a 1384 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 2: couple of them to try to make me look good 1385 01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:17,600 Speaker 2: at every turn. He's a powerful and attractive man in 1386 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,720 Speaker 2: the host studio. I turned that right back on him 1387 01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 2: because he's a legend, and the play by play of 1388 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,880 Speaker 2: stuff from Angel City just fantastic up on his Twitter 1389 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,599 Speaker 2: account at Isaac Lowencron and now he can update us 1390 01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,200 Speaker 2: on everything going on at the news desk as we 1391 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:34,280 Speaker 2: get ready for a very busy day in the world 1392 01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:34,879 Speaker 2: of sports. 1393 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:40,000 Speaker 8: I thank you, Mike, and we start with additional information 1394 01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:42,920 Speaker 8: about what has unfortunately been our top story for most 1395 01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:46,959 Speaker 8: of the day. Former LSU receiver and NFL draft prospect 1396 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 8: Kiren Lacy died on Saturday night in Houston, Texas. Lacey 1397 01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:54,280 Speaker 8: at his final college season for LSU before declaring for 1398 01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:57,559 Speaker 8: the draft. A sensational year. Fifty eight catches eight hundred 1399 01:11:57,560 --> 01:12:00,679 Speaker 8: and sixty six yards, he led them with nine touchdown. 1400 01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 8: Lacey had been facing a negligent homicide charge after being 1401 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:07,080 Speaker 8: involved in a fatal crash last December. A grand jury 1402 01:12:07,160 --> 01:12:10,200 Speaker 8: was actually due to begin hearing evidence in the case 1403 01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:14,519 Speaker 8: tomorrow morning, and to that end, Lacey's lawyer has released 1404 01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 8: a statement within the last hour or so, reading, in 1405 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,080 Speaker 8: part quote Kyrone was scheduled to have as matter heard 1406 01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:24,439 Speaker 8: before a grand jury tomorrow. We were very confident the 1407 01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:27,479 Speaker 8: evidence would lead to a declination of charges. From the 1408 01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:30,719 Speaker 8: very beginning, the so called investigation took on the appearance 1409 01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:34,719 Speaker 8: of an over zealous, targeted effort, fueled by who Kyen 1410 01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:37,960 Speaker 8: was and the public profile he carried. We will be 1411 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:41,360 Speaker 8: demanding a full and transparent review of how this investigation 1412 01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:45,480 Speaker 8: was conducted and why those responsible for this gross miscarriage 1413 01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:49,400 Speaker 8: of justice must and will be held accountable unquote again 1414 01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:53,240 Speaker 8: that part of a statement released by Lacey's attorney, Kyrone. 1415 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:58,240 Speaker 8: Lacey was twenty four years old in Round four of 1416 01:12:58,280 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 8: the Masters.

Might need to have a little 1482 01:15:58,320 --> 01:15:58,680 Speaker 2: bit of. 1483 01:15:58,640 --> 01:16:04,479 Speaker 3: A down period there dan im Al Maliava as he 1484 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:09,000 Speaker 3: gets ready for whatever his next college stint is. I 1485 01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:11,519 Speaker 3: just thought the quote from his now former coach Josh 1486 01:16:11,560 --> 01:16:13,880 Speaker 3: Hippel was one we needed to highlight here on a 1487 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:15,840 Speaker 3: Sunday because it has great meaning. 1488 01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 13: Today's landscape of college football it's different, Oh. 1489 01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 4: Rack, We've got a lot of your friends coming out 1490 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:25,320 Speaker 4: to the weekend. 1491 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,400 Speaker 3: It was a little combo we'll getting a combo combo platter. 1492 01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:34,680 Speaker 4: We're not going to do it at Miami. And I 1493 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,440 Speaker 4: say that not any hesitation. 1494 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:39,240 Speaker 7: You know, if anyone's thinking that they could be the 1495 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 7: best player in the world that they want to play Hodell, 1496 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:42,920 Speaker 7: they might have all play get out. 1497 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,040 Speaker 4: The don't want to do that. We don't want Miami 1498 01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 4: to become that. 1499 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:48,439 Speaker 13: Too many guys have sweated and bled and we have 1500 01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:49,400 Speaker 13: laid on the line. 1501 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:49,920 Speaker 4: On that field. 1502 01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we got we got the crystal ball. So 1503 01:16:54,920 --> 01:17:01,640 Speaker 2: in the end, it's Hypel's point. Sorry for the technical malfunctioned. 1504 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:06,880 Speaker 3: I do we have hype? We do have, and then 1505 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 3: it started, So let's try it again. 1506 01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:13,800 Speaker 13: Today's landscape of college football it's different than what it 1507 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 13: has been. And you know, it's unfortunate, you know, just 1508 01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:22,880 Speaker 13: the situation and where we're at with with Nico. I 1509 01:17:22,920 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 13: want to thank him for everything that he's done, uh 1510 01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 13: since he's gotten here. You know that's as a recruit 1511 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:31,880 Speaker 13: to who he was as as a player and uh, 1512 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,960 Speaker 13: how he competed inside of the building, and so a 1513 01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 13: great appreciation for that side of it. Obviously, we're moving 1514 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:42,760 Speaker 13: forward as as a program without him. You know, I 1515 01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:45,360 Speaker 13: said it to the guys today, Uh, there's no one 1516 01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:48,680 Speaker 13: that's that's bigger than the Power Tea, and that that 1517 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:49,439 Speaker 13: includes me. 1518 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:53,719 Speaker 2: The power Tea that includes him. As folks anxiously await 1519 01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:57,439 Speaker 2: what next offer comes down the pipeline for Josh Ipel, I. 1520 01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:01,879 Speaker 4: Know it's it's Mike. We both have loved college football 1521 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 4: for decades and so I think there are a lot 1522 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,240 Speaker 4: of people like us that this just doesn't This just 1523 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:12,040 Speaker 4: doesn't ring right, and the lack of loyalty is something 1524 01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 4: that I completely understand. But what college athletics has turned 1525 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 4: into is at this point it is no longer about 1526 01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:24,320 Speaker 4: team and teammates and loyalty. It is Hey, guess what, 1527 01:18:24,400 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 4: I found another job elsewhere. I'm going to bring this 1528 01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:30,080 Speaker 4: back to my employer to see if they can match, 1529 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,000 Speaker 4: and if they can't match, then I'm going to go 1530 01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:36,720 Speaker 4: somewhere else. And it's very difficult in a team sort 1531 01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:40,040 Speaker 4: of aspect. And when Niko has only been there a 1532 01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 4: couple of years, you know, it's a different you know, 1533 01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:44,240 Speaker 4: when you've maybe been with a company for twenty years, 1534 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:46,000 Speaker 4: a lot of stuff that you have into it. There 1535 01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:48,880 Speaker 4: just isn't that connection anymore. And it's tough for me 1536 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:52,559 Speaker 4: to understand. I'm trying to, I'm really trying to. But 1537 01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:54,840 Speaker 4: you know, at the end of it, that's what I 1538 01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:56,920 Speaker 4: think it comes down to. Yeah, and it's sad for 1539 01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:58,240 Speaker 4: you and I said as leverage. 1540 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:00,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, for you and I. We've both been with the 1541 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:04,240 Speaker 2: the Greater Fox World for quite a while, so you know, 1542 01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:09,280 Speaker 2: it's the you keep your eyes open, your ears open, whatever. 1543 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:14,040 Speaker 2: But you've got great circumstances here you're looking to Perhaps 1544 01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 2: you don't have the greatest pro prospects. I don't know 1545 01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:22,120 Speaker 2: where Nico will be evaluating that, but in the interim, 1546 01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 2: you're trying to get all you can as you watch 1547 01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 2: a landscape evolving and maybe you know, he felt like 1548 01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 2: he was going to be displayed sooner rather than later. 1549 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:32,360 Speaker 4: It's just it's crazy to do it right before the 1550 01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 4: spring game, and yeah he did lead him on in 1551 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:36,920 Speaker 4: that portion. 1552 01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:38,880 Speaker 3: I like chaos. All right, who are you picking to win? 1553 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:42,800 Speaker 4: I'll pick Bryson because I just don't think that these, 1554 01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:46,280 Speaker 4: you know, fairy tale endings happen in sports. 1555 01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 2: There you go, I've got a little backing on Rory. 1556 01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:53,719 Speaker 2: So interested observer the final round. Enjoy it, Steve VJ. 1557 01:19:54,040 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 2: Next year, Fox Sports Radio,
