We did a podcast yesterday on 6 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: football as well, So I didn't want to talk about 7 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour playoffs. Cam Young finally wins a tournament. 8 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: I want to talk about why that's kind of symbolic 9 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: of where the sport is. I am flying to Chicago 10 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: on Friday and actually staying with Coward and we are 11 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: going to live Chicago on Saturday, so hopefully talks some 12 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: football with Phil Mickelson, Bryce and d Chambeau fellow content creator. 13 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: So we will be on property on Saturday in Chicago. 14 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: And yeah, I've been saying forever we need to get 15 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: Phil because we're I think we're doing some interviews not 16 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: exactly buttoned up and dialed into what we are doing, 17 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: but I want to talk football with Phil and have 18 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: some early bets that I'm pretty fired up on.

What do you want to do? Do 36 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: you want to go to a football game? We're less 37 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: than a month away from college, way less than a 38 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: month away from college, and probably about I think week 39 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: one Cowboys Eagles Thursday night is September fourth, so we're 40 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: less than a month away from the NFL. And September 41 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: fifth pretty sure is Chargers Chiefs in Brazil, so on YouTube, 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: So we buckle up for that as well, very very excited. 43 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: We got football season right around the corner. Any game 44 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: you want to go to, concerts, comedy shows, you name it. 45 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 1: It doesn't get any easier to use it. I'm telling you, guys, 46 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: I've been using these guys for a long time. Best 47 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: in the business, easiest application to use as well. So 48 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: take the guests work out of buying tickets with game 49 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: time down with a game time app, create an account, 50 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: use coach John for twenty dollars if for first purchase 51 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: terms of play again, create an account and redeem the 52 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 1: code Jwaight Jen for twenty dollars off down on the 53 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: game time app today last to take as lowest prices guaranteed. 54 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 1: Let's dive into Cam Young and I was thinking about 55 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: it actually over the last couple of days, and really 56 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: when he won on Sunday. Is for a long time. 57 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: Golf is not football, basketball or baseball. Right, You could 58 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: be a really good baseball player, never win anything and 59 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: make a ton of money. This is thirty years ago, 60 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: let alone nowadays, right, same thing in basketball and obviously 61 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: football winning doesn't go hand in hand with having a 62 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: very lucrative career. Typically in an individual sport right. When 63 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: you think about golf and tennis, like the really famous 64 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: players making all the money are the guys winning the 65 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: most Tiger Phil Nadal, Djokovic, Federer, right, Pete Sampriss. But 66 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: there are the occasional outliers like Andre Agassi's career. If 67 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: you just put it parallel, Pete Sampras's doesn't look the same, 68 00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: but he was a marketing machine. Ricky foul is not 69 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: nearly as accomplished as his buddies Jordan Speith and Justin Thomas, 70 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: but he can push some product and he has printed cash. 71 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: So you either got to be a great winner or 72 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: you know, the outlier version of a marketing machine. And 73 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: then there are the occasional guys that come really close, 74 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: come really close and then start winning like Xander or 75 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: Tony Feenow and then accumulate a lot of money. Kim Young, 76 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: who there's no disputing his talent. I got a good 77 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: buddy named Scotti Raver. He is good buddies with Spencer 78 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: Levine and Spencer Levine played I've played golf with him 79 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: a couple times in the Sacramento area. He played on 80 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour for a while, was one of the 81 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: best amateur players in northern California when I was in 82 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: junior high and high school and now is on the 83 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: corn Fery Tour. Actually just finished second literally last week 84 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: in Utah, and he told Scotty a story probably like 85 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: four or five years ago that he was in an event, 86 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: a corn Ferry event with Cam Young in Chicago. This 87 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: is before Cam Young had made the PGA Tour. And 88 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: it was the Sunday or the last day of this event. 89 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: It might have been Saturday, awful weather, rain win again. 90 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: Spencer has played against Phil, has played against Tiger, has 91 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: played against Rory, I mean Jim Furick, I mean Ernie Els, 92 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: you name it. Some of the best players in the 93 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: history of the sport. And on this day, Cam Young 94 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: shot like four or five under, and everyone else, no 95 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: one sniffed part. And He's like, this is one of 96 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: the best rounds I've ever seen Cam Young win. He's 97 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: on and he was just last week when he's putting well, 98 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: obviously I think his driver can get a little squorely. 99 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: There is no disputing he is one of the elite, 100 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: elite talents in the game of golf. In program, I mean, 101 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 1: you're talking Scotty, Rory Bryson in a pretty special category. 102 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: Then you get to like the Zander types like Cam 103 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: Young when he's on is in that type conversation, right, 104 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna get some random guys probably on 105 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: this Ryder Cup. Ben Griffin really talented player, playing really well. 106 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: Like just from a talent standpoint, Cam Young's more talented, 107 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: right He PJ Tour Rookie of the Year guy that's 108 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: finished second a bunch of times. But golf in twenty 109 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: twenty five, Like, these guys are very very lucky to 110 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: be part of this product. You know, this is not 111 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: the NBA or baseball, where guys have been making a 112 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: ton for a long long time. Cam Young had made 113 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: twenty million dollars basically before he had won an event, 114 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: And unlike Ricky Vowler or Andre Agassi, no one's calling 115 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: Cam Young a big personality. If you watch the TGL 116 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: and I don't blame you if he didn't watch much of 117 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: it was kind of boring after a while, But that 118 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: was the thing on ESPN two with the you know, 119 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: the track man with the big screen. Listen, there's some 120 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas, pretty big personality, Billy Horschall, like the PJ tour. 121 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: Some guys that will Phil Mickelson, Bryce and guys that 122 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: are just can just kind of carry you when you 123 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: put a mic and you know a camera in front 124 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: of him. Cam Young is not that guy. There is 125 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: not much there. I mean, he's bringing little to nothing 126 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: to the table in terms of personality. Hell, he finally wins, 127 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: and which I meyer shows absolutely zero emotion excitement. I mean, 128 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: very on brand for the guy and all these guys 129 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: right now. And we get a lot of complaining a 130 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: couple of years ago and Xander with the Ryder Cup 131 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,559 Speaker 1: and the no Hat pat and we should be paid 132 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: and listen, I'm as pro capitalism as anyone you're gonna meet. 133 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: But there are certain situations where it's like God, I mean, 134 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: don't bite the hand of fied you because this is 135 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: and CBS is having a great year. Their golf is 136 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: up seventeen percent based on last year. They have some 137 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: events that you're like, how is the John Deere Classic Cup? 138 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: So now clearly they're factoring in streaming golf's popularity because 139 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: it's pretty simple. Like people often ask like why isn't 140 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: hockey as big in America? Because kids like the reason 141 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: I watch football or basketball and love those sports as 142 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: a kid. Like I played basketball in junior high, I 143 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: played football in high school. I love golf, but I 144 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: played high school golf. People that play the sport in 145 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: their youth junior, high, high school, obviously college tend to 146 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: gravitate to that sport as they age. In terms of 147 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: a viewer and as a fan, it's easier to relate. 148 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: Not that you can play like these guys, but if 149 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: you play casual golf, if you are a golfer and 150 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: you play once a week with your buddies on a 151 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: Friday afternoon or Saturday or whatever, right over the course 152 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: of the next couple of years, you're gonna be more inclined. 153 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: If you're flipping channels and see it on CBS or 154 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: NBC pro golfers teeing it up because you're like, I 155 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: play this too, what do they do? Right? So I 156 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: think that part of what makes golf unique is the 157 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: popularity has really grown, and clearly there's interest in the 158 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: pro game. But like, you don't even need to win 159 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: to make huge cash, right. Obviously Scotti Scheffler, who has 160 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: accumulated a ton over the last couple of years, well, 161 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: he's been winning at a borderline historic Tiger like clip. 162 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: You got Cam Young that hasn't won anything and it's 163 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: just print money. This is why people get so turned 164 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: off when guys like Marikawa getting these spats like Colin Relax, buddy, 165 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: like life's not that bad. You got it pretty good. 166 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: You play golf for a living and relative to the 167 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 1: viewership compared to these other sports like Cam Young is 168 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: a good example, right if he disappeared tomorrow, the sport 169 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: would be unfazed. Like they are really just a couple 170 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: guys Scotti, Bryson, Rory who really impact like true interest 171 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: in the sport. You could justin Thomas Speath if he's good. 172 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: It's a very small percentage. I'm comparing none of those 173 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: guys to Tiger. But there was a reason this was 174 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: one of the most watched Masters over the course of 175 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: the last twenty years. When you factor in the story 176 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: and the guy chasing the green jacket, it was Rory McElroy. 177 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: It would not have been the same if it had 178 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 1: been Brooks, Koepka, or it had been I was gonna 179 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: say Speed probably Xander. It just would There are certain 180 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: people that you know or just drink bring more intrigue 181 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: in Young is one of those guys that's kind of 182 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: gliding or what's the term in you know, in car racing, 183 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: when you draft behind the guy. That's what a majority 184 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: of these guys are doing, and it kind of leads 185 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: us into the playoffs This week in Memphis, brought to 186 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: you by Transfusion five Hour Energy Shots a whole in 187 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: one flavor sensation by now on five hour Energy dot Com. 188 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: Here's the thing they've messed with the FedEx Club playoffs 189 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. It used to be 190 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,239 Speaker 1: you made the top thirty, you're guaranteed like a minimum 191 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: a couple hundred thousand dollars in The winner was getting 192 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: like eighteen twenty million dollars. The last couple of years, 193 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: they've changed that and kind of split it in half. 194 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: Like Scottie just got a payment last week for eighteen 195 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: million dollars. Because they didn't want it all to come 196 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: down to the last week. They wanted to factor in, 197 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,839 Speaker 1: you know, the course of the year. Golf's different than 198 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: basketball or football or whatever. They wanted to value the 199 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: course of the season. So Scotti Scheffler literally just what 200 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: eighteen million dollars based on his success throughout the season, 201 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: Rory was ten, Cepstraca was six, Justin Thomas some other 202 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: guys like four and a half, so that they are 203 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: just handing out money right now. And listen, I got 204 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: no problem with it, I said before I tweeted this out, 205 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: like on Sunday, I never understand why the broadcast is 206 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: so uncomfortable leaning in like the whole point of professional golf, 207 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: Like at football, the whole point of the sport is 208 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: to try to win the game and then make the 209 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: playoffs and then win the Super Bowl. So it's not 210 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: like you don't need to talk about like, hey, this 211 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: guy's making twenty seven million dollars to play left tackle. 212 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: But in golf, the premise behind an event is I'm 213 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: trying to win the event or top ten to make 214 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: the most money possible. I'm literally just playing golf for money, 215 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: for prize money. That is, It's really that simple, and 216 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: like and I get it, like they never have and 217 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 1: they don't lean into this, like I don't understand, Like 218 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: Jim Nanscy' is like, this is pretty impressive. He just 219 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: sets a new rec nineteen point one million dollars worth 220 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: of earnings before his first win. And if Tommy Fleetwood. 221 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: Ever wins, he'll shatter that record. He's well over thirty. 222 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: But like that's interesting, and they never talk about that, 223 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: and the whole playoffs like this, the next three weeks, 224 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: it's just this whole thing exists to just give out 225 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: money to guys, and I think they felt like it 226 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: was weighted too hard on these last couple of weeks 227 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: if a Rory Ascotti had a great season and then 228 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: they kind of shit the bed like they shouldn't be 229 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 1: I would say docked that much. So they've tried to 230 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: give out some early money and now these next three weeks, 231 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: like this is a huge week because to make it 232 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: to the top fifty, which is next week, gets you 233 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: into all the signature events next year, and the signature 234 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: events are where the big payouts happen. So it's basically 235 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: turned into a tour of haves and have nots, and 236 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: everyone's had a million different opinions and forever when it 237 00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: was one hundred and twenty or one hundred and twenty five, 238 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: whatever the number was, I kind of agree with the 239 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: elite players of like, why are we so worried about 240 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: the ninety fifth guy? Why are we so worried about 241 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: one hundred and twentieth guy, because in tennis they are 242 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 1: one hundred percent not worried about that. They are dead 243 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: set on taking care of the top five six guys, 244 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: and on any given you know era, it might be 245 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: three or four, might be less than five or six. Now, 246 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: golf's a little different than that. They go a little deeper, 247 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: but like they have spent probably a outsized amount of 248 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: energy worried about taking care of the back half of 249 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: the guys, and the money that gets generated through television 250 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: isn't really about those guys. Now, I'm also a believer 251 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: that one organic aspect of professional golf is it is 252 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: cool on a given Sunday when you have a top 253 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: player Scotti Scheffler or Xander Schaffley, a Ry McElroy in 254 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: a major, a Bright d. Chambeau, Adustin Johnson, A Brooks 255 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: Koepka going up against more of a no name guy. 256 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: I do think that's riveting. I do think that's really 257 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: good television. And the more and more they whack those 258 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 1: guys where everyone just becomes a famous person and it's 259 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: just like you're not even welcome into our event, it 260 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: gets a little less interesting. So I think they're in 261 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: a tough spot. I'm very fascinated how Brian Rollapp, the 262 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: new tour commissioner, who is from the NFL, will he 263 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: make aggressive changes? Does he even have the power to 264 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: make aggressive changes? How involved is guys like Tiger Woods, 265 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: who I think and rightfully so, have a huge affinity 266 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: for the way things used to be, not necessarily from 267 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: a financial standpoint, but just the purity of golf. And 268 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: it's going to be really really interesting where we go 269 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: moving forward. But as we sit here right now, it 270 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: goes seventy to fifty to thirty, Like the next three 271 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: weeks I would say are not the most riveting in golf. 272 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: And I don't get c up and worrying about like 273 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: who's going to be the FedEx champion, Who's gonna win 274 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: the Tour Championship. I don't really care. I view this 275 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: more from like how do we gamble on this? And 276 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: it can be a little difficult because these are no 277 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: cut events, smaller fields. I looked at the last couple 278 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: of years at this event in Memphis, which is extremely hot. 279 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: Obviously it's in the heart of the South. There is 280 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: I was in the car the other day and I 281 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: listened I was flipping around. I ended up on PGA 282 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: Tour radio and Wyndham Clark was calling in and he's 283 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: played this event and he was saying that two things. One, 284 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: it's supposed to be like ninety five ninety six degrees 285 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: with insane Southern humidity and zero wind. He's like, at 286 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: least if there's a ten mile wind at you know, 287 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: when you're playing Southern courses in the summer, it cools 288 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: you down a little bit. But there is zero wind, 289 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: so this is tends to be a little bit of 290 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: a birdie fest. No win the heat. It's almost like 291 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: who can handle the amount of heat. So you gotta 292 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: like some guys from like Texas and Arizona in this event. 293 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: But looking the last couple of years, they've played this 294 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: event at this time, so these guys have been used 295 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: to it. The other thing Wyndham said is you got 296 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: like this course. If you don't hit fairways, it just 297 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: it really limits your ability to score here. So accuracy 298 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: off the tee is really really big, and you look 299 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: like this is a ball striker's course because the last year, 300 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: for example, Hadeki, one second was Xander and Hoveland, and 301 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: fourth was Scotti. A year ago it was Lucas Glover, 302 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: who was on an all time late season heater in 303 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: a playoff against Patrick Cantley who was playing better than 304 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: and in third place was Rory. So looking at how 305 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: to gamble on this, Scotty is such a major favorite 306 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: in every tournament he plays now and currently he is 307 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: like under three to one. So if you want to 308 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: bet Scotty, I got no issue with you. To me. 309 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: If I'm going to bet Scotty, I'm gonna parlay a 310 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: couple guys to finish in the top twenty. Like I 311 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: look to take Scotty and then take like Ben Griffin 312 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: and Chris gott her Up who are playing really really 313 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: well to top twenty, and you can get like that's 314 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: like fifteen to one. You bet ten bucks, you win 315 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: one hundred fifty. You bet one hundred bucks, you win 316 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: fifteen hundred. I also said, well, if you go, Rory's 317 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: not playing in this tournament. Xander over the last couple 318 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 1: of months has looked much more like himself. A year 319 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: ago he finished second, so he's comfortable on this course. 320 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: You can get Xander right now eighteen to one. I 321 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 1: mean the gap between Scotty at plus two eighty and 322 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: Xander at plus eighteen hundred is pretty crazy. Like typically 323 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: even in Scotty's Heyday, you would get a couple guys 324 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: like how Xander not ten to one or something, but 325 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: that's a pretty sizable gap. So you're basically just playing, hey, 326 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: can Xander beat Scotty? You kind of gotta like his chances. 327 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: And if you do that same parlay Xander with got 328 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: her up and Ben Griffin to top twenty that pays 329 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: eighty to one. I think it's like plus eight thousand 330 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: and seven or something. So bet in like ten bucks 331 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: win jade hundred. I'm gonna do that. So I'm gonna 332 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: do the Scotty one. I'm gonna do the Xander one. 333 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: And that's really all. I'm gonna play a couple guys 334 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: if you like to win, just outright that aren't Scotty 335 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: or Xander. You know, Fleetwood has had success here before. 336 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: You know, you want a guy that's gonna hit fairways 337 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: and be a ball striker. Hovelin obviously was good here 338 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: last year. He's a guy who can get like plus 339 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: three thousand, so thirty to one. I think he's kind 340 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: of intriguing. But this these really this week and next 341 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: week are probably the last tournaments that that Tour Championship 342 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: can be difficult because there's only thirty guys and uh, 343 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: it's basically gonna come between probably one of Scotty or Rory, 344 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: I mean, are gonna are gonna win the thing. So 345 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: I'm I'm actually excited for this week because there's also 346 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: a lot on the line in terms of Ryder Cup. 347 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 1: Let's face it, watching Cam Young win on Sunday, you 348 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: went like he's from the New York area. He is 349 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: an absolute bomber. He I think he won a big 350 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,239 Speaker 1: amateur tournament at at beth Page, so he's comfortable on 351 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: the course. Like, how's he not, especially if he plays 352 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: well the next couple weeks not on the team. He 353 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: was already i think, like fifteenth in terms of the 354 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: American Ryder Cup rankings, so it's like he's been in 355 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: the mix anyway, you wouldn't rather have Cam Young if 356 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: he's playing well, then I don't know, and I understand, 357 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: like Patrick Cantley has been a very good Ryder Cup player, 358 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 1: but he's not playing well right now. I mean he's 359 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: honestly had an awful year. I would say Jordan speech 360 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: right now, he even admitted, like, next year, I'm gonna 361 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: feel a lot better coming back from injury. This year 362 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 1: was weird. I'm much more confident next year. He's basically 363 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: telling you, like, I haven't played very well this year, 364 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 1: how are you gonna take if Cam Young plays well? 365 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: And then one of the next two weeks Jordan' speed 366 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: over Cam Young just because of what he did four, eight, 367 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: six years ago. Who cares the same thing with gott 368 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: her Up? Like if got her Up plays well these 369 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: next couple of weeks, I just have a hard time 370 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: seeing Cam Young and got Her Up guys from the 371 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: area that bombed the ball and that are playing really well, 372 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: like their momentum has to count for something. And I 373 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: do think Kegan Bradley, who on the was it the 374 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 1: original Netflix or was it the year the season two 375 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: of the Netflix when it when he got left off 376 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: Zak Johnson's team for the Good Old Boys Club. I'm 377 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: not saying that he has a vandett against everybody. He's 378 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: probably cool with them all, but you can't imagine he 379 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 1: hasn't thought like, if I'm given the opportunity to blow 380 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: this all these guys on scholarship, like if they're not 381 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: playing well, I'm gonna do it. And guys like Cam Young, 382 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: Chris got Her Up, they got a chance to really 383 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: disrupt this thing. And I'm not saying to kick more 384 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: cow out of the curb. He's currently I think eighth 385 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: in the Ryder Cup American rankings, but he has not 386 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: played well either, and like his whole juju and vibe 387 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: has been off. He's gone through like seventeen caddies in 388 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: the last three months, So I think there has to 389 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 1: be some guys. And Keigan's already said whether he picks 390 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: himself or not, if you are not in the top 391 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: six and automatically qualifying, you are not guaranteed. So it 392 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 1: happened to me, and you better get ready because it 393 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: will happen to you. But you also need some of 394 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: these guys to step up and play well for everyone 395 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: to feel good about, especially Keegan picking them. So again 396 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: I'm going Xander to win with got Her Up and 397 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: Ben Griffin to top twenty, and I'm also doing the 398 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: same thing with Scottie to win Ben Griffin and got 399 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: Her Up to top twenty. Okay, Live Chicago this week 400 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: in bowling Brook. Your boy has never been to the 401 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: Windy City. Kind of crazy.

We don't know. Phil likes to gamble, 409 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 1: Bryce content creator like your boy. So I'm I am 410 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 1: just excited to watch this whole operation. Because listen, the 411 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: television product in terms of ratings haven't worked out, but 412 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: no one has argued that. Like being in the event, 413 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: I would imagine there's gonna be a pretty big turnout. 414 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: Never been or seen this this course bowling Brook, but 415 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: I can't imagine the vibes are going to be high. 416 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: They clearly put in a lot of money in terms 417 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: of the infrastructure and the party holes. So I'm excited 418 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: to see what Lives bring to the table. Obviously you 419 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 1: know Bryson, Phil, DJ Hatton, bother's playing well.

It's July and the season basically seems over. 491 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: Why not have more time in between majors and have 492 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: the last one in September? Also hot take. After watching 493 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 1: the British Open, I can safely say that Links golf 494 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: is so boring and overrated. Every course looks the same, 495 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: the grass is dead and it's a horrible TV product. Yeah, 496 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: the courses over there have history, but man, give me 497 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: we sawgrass type course any day of the week with 498 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: lusch greens, beautiful trees and not just flat land everywhere. 499 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna disagree. I enjoy it on television once a year, 500 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: but I would probably get on board if we saw 501 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: it ten times a Year'd be like, Okay, we get it. 502 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,479 Speaker 1: You need the wind in the rain or else. These 503 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: guys are gonna destroy the course. I don't think. And 504 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: this is the problem. I love the Ryder Cup. I 505 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: mean I love golf. Having the Ryder Cup, which is 506 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: an incredible event, going up against college and NFL football 507 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: is tough. Like Friday of the Ryder Cup is cool 508 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: because they're not competing against anything. And then all of 509 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: a sudden you got Alabama, LSU, Ohio State, Michigan, Oregon, USC, 510 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: all these teams playing that. The casual sports fan that 511 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: would consume the Ryder Cup is not gonna do it. 512 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: And obviously you play the singles matches on Sunday. Well 513 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: what happens on Sunday? The NFL and the Ryder Cups 514 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: in New York this year, which is really cool, But like, 515 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: do you think more people are tuning into that or 516 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: the Jets and Giants game come come Sunday afternoon. So 517 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying about spreading it out. I disagree. 518 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: You kind of got to take advantage of the summer, 519 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: Like the best thing for golf is once football ends, 520 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: there's some open real estate. There's a reason that on 521 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: the AFC and NFC Championships that Jim Nance typically it's 522 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: like the Kansas City Invitational now calls the Tory Pines 523 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: from the football booth on and they do Wednesday through 524 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: Thursday or Wednesday through Saturday instead of Thursday through Sunday 525 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: because they don't want to go up against the NFL. 526 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: So I would not go up against football. I really 527 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: would not. I hear what you're saying, But why does 528 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: golf have to be twelve months a year. It's always 529 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: a complaint by the players, like why don't we get 530 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: an offseason? I think it's a valid concern. There just 531 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: literally is no off season. So yeah, I don't know. 532 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: Why is the whole after an eagle or a birdie 533 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: so impossible? It's a great question. I think you're I mean, 534 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: if you're after an eagle, you're just so amped up, 535 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: even if you're a pro. I mean, an eagle is 536 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: a pretty big deal, especially if it was like it's 537 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 1: one thing if it's like a driveable par four, but 538 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: if you get an eagle on a par five where 539 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: you do hit a driver and then definitely like a 540 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: three wood or a five wood and make a putt. 541 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a better feeling in golf. Like 542 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: it's a cool feeling to like hit an iron within 543 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: ten feet and then make the putt. But there's nothing 544 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: like hitting it on in two on a par five 545 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: and then making a putt. To me, that is better 546 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: than even like chipping in. But you could also argue 547 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: that chipping in like there's just a come down from it. 548 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: And I think most of us we get a little 549 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: too excited, we lose our focus, and then all of 550 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: a sudden, you've pumped one in the trees. How good 551 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: would you recommend someone be to play some of the 552 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: tougher and more famous courses. I'm new to golf and 553 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: taking lessons and still scoring in the hundreds an RCAL 554 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: and want to play courses like Banded Dunes and Pebble 555 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: Beach in the next few years before I move, but 556 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,719 Speaker 1: want to actually enjoy it. It's not fun spending three 557 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: hundred dollars for a round and spend your whole time 558 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: searching for a ball. I think there are some parallels. 559 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: Anyone that's skied or snowboarded. No if you're not very 560 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: good and you go down a double black diamond, it 561 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: is a miserable experience. And with golf one, it's it's 562 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: supposed to be a fun activity, right, you're supposed to 563 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: enjoy yourself. All of us know it can be really challenging, 564 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: really hard, and really frustrating. But when you pay, you 565 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: ain't playing pebble for three hundred dollars, I'll promise you that. 566 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: And I don't know how much Banned Dunes is, but 567 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: it's not three hundred dollars either. And to get to 568 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: Bandon Dunes for you, you either got to drive, which 569 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: is six seven eight hours, or fly, which is not cheap. 570 00:30:55,120 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: So it's it's an expensive Those two golfing trips are 571 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: expensive no matter what. So if you're gonna spend a 572 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: lot of money, you don't want to go to a 573 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: situation where you're gonna suck and be miserable. So I 574 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: would say, I mean, pebble's you got to stay there. 575 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: So unless you know people, you're spending well over a 576 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: thousand dollars to play pebble. So if you're gonna play pebble, 577 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: I would say you gotta be breaking one hundred consistently. 578 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: You could probably go to Bandon playing like you're playing 579 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: and just enjoy it because it's hard, no matter what, 580 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: if the wind is pumping. But I would say the 581 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: pebble thing, I would not play it. I've never even 582 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: played pebble Beach. I've been there a bunch, but I've 583 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: never I played Spyglass, but I've never played pebble, But 584 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 1: I would not recommend going. If you can't break a 585 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: hundred Bandon, you could go with friends, get some caddies, 586 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: and you know, kind of enjoy yourself. You're not gonna 587 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: lose as many balls. In theory. Pebble though, that to 588 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: me is a bucket list course no matter who you are. 589 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Jack Nicholas calls it the greatest course in 590 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: history of the world. So definitely the best stretch is, 591 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: you know, six seven, eight nine. I would there's a 592 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: correlation of putting pressure on yourself when you're spending an 593 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: uncomfortable amount of money on golf. It's not fun if 594 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: you're not playing well. Have you or anyone played the 595 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: Tacomo irons They advertise as being very forgiving and low 596 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: price point, but didn't know if they were any good. 597 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: I think that's the iron that Grand Horvat is in 598 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: business with. I've never have. I mean, I've honestly only 599 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: hit my own tailor made irons for the last I 600 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,239 Speaker 1: don't know, half decade, so they're the only I mean, 601 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: I've occasionally hit other people's drivers or woods, but I 602 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: have not hit another iron in a long long time. 603 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: In your last go low when comparing Scottie season from 604 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: last year in this year, you forgot to list his 605 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: win at the Olympics. I'm not saying it's enough for 606 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: him to say he'd prefer his twenty four season over 607 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: two majors, but it obviously meant a lot to him 608 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: and he literally cried during the medal ceremony. How much 609 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: do you think he values the gold medal in comparison 610 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: to major trophies and other marquis PGA events, And how 611 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: much do you value it adds to his legacy? So 612 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: I think you were you were alluding to, would Scotty 613 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: have traded his season for Xanders when he won two majors? 614 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: I'm right, I did not mention the gold medal, and 615 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: if I remember correctly, didn't Scotty come storming back on 616 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: the final day to win the gold medal pretty unique accomplishment, 617 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: even though it's not really like storied in the sense 618 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: that it's relatively new. I don't think Xander would have 619 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: traded his because he already has a gold medal. Xander 620 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: won his gold medal in what year was it, two thousand? 621 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: He won in twenty twenty eight because they delayed in 622 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, So yeah, I mean, I think that definitely 623 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: factors in. And if you're Scotty and you know you're 624 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: gonna win more, I think he'd feel pretty good about 625 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: the gold medal aspect would probably it's fairpoint, fairpoint, but 626 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: I don't think Xander would have traded his for Scotty 627 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: and all the wins and all the money to add 628 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: the gold medal because he already had one. So I 629 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: think it kind of goes both ways. But definitely, now 630 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: that Scotty's won the gold medal, I don't think there's 631 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: amount of regular events he could win and not trade 632 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: trade for majors like I think he's at the point 633 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,800 Speaker 1: moving forward. I mean, he's gonna keep winning regular events 634 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: for sure, but the emphasis on Scotti Scheffler to add 635 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: to this, can he win? I mean, I think the 636 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: question mark is now he's at four, is he winning 637 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 1: eight to ten or does he end up like six 638 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: or seven? And I would guess eight to ten assuming 639 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: he doesn't get injured. Like I mean, I think the 640 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: over under next year for Scotty is one and a half. 641 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: Just wanted to reach out and say that after about 642 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: a month or two playing, I hit a par and 643 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: a par three today and hit my farthest drive as well. 644 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 1: With golf seemingly growing, do you think the merger between 645 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 1: the DP World Tour, Live Golf and PGA can come 646 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: up with a product to capitalize on it. It's a 647 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: great question, man. I'm gonna be at Live Chicago and 648 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: see if I can get a vibe for like, Hey, guys, 649 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,959 Speaker 1: is this we do any mergers? We gotta start playing together. 650 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,720 Speaker 1: I do think the ball is somewhat in the PGA 651 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: Tours court and the commission the new CEO commissioner. You know, 652 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: I think I've been saying this forever. An easy one 653 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: is just to waive some of the the the restrictions 654 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: and just be like, hey, do you want to play 655 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: some of our events? You guys, John Rahm, you want 656 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: to play in the waste management? Uh? Dj Koepka, you 657 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: want to play in the Arnold Palmer Bryson you want 658 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: you want to play in some of these events and 659 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: kind of start off slowly that way and then slowly 660 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: integrate from there. But I don't as of right now. 661 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: I would say, based on the information we have up 662 00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: to this point is there is no unification in the 663 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: near future, so I don't know. I would say maybe 664 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: it's added some buzz to the majors, but relative to 665 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: the tours, it doesn't matter. I mean, none of the 666 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: tours don't have anything to do with the Majors. It's 667 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 1: kind of sad question for the pod when is the 668 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 1: next Breaking eighty video coming? If you had to choose 669 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 1: Rory versus Bryson Sunday at the Ryder Cup for the 670 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,439 Speaker 1: win or the Ravens verse Chiefs Week four matchup, they'll 671 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: probably be on at the same time. This is what 672 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's just Bryson and Rory are just not 673 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 1: They're not relevant in the sense of your going up 674 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: against the Ravens and the Chiefs. It's just not an 675 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: ideal situation. There's no way around it. I don't know 676 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: what you do that there's not really any changes you 677 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,359 Speaker 1: can make. But if you're gonna have the Ryder Cup 678 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: during football season, you're gonna come about that like it 679 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:57,439 Speaker 1: could be Scotty versus Rahm and Rory versus Bryson head 680 00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: to head, which I would guess it's gonna be what 681 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Fleetwood versus Justin Thomas Ludwig versus 682 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: J J. Sapon. But I'm actually going to film some 683 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:13,359 Speaker 1: stuff today with my friends at five hour Energy. I'm 684 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 1: gonna do I gotta do one soon. I've just we 685 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: got so football heavy, got married kid. We haven't done one, 686 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: but I'm kind of inspired right now. I haven't touched 687 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,800 Speaker 1: a golf club in a couple of weeks. Congratulations on 688 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 1: the upcoming baby. What are your thoughts on transitioning to 689 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,719 Speaker 1: all hybrid clubs. I'm approaching forties, my distance has diminished, 690 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,280 Speaker 1: and I've always hit well with my four and five hybrids. 691 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: I currently have four, five and six. Would you replace 692 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:42,240 Speaker 1: your seven, eight, nine irons with hybrids? That seems pretty bold, 693 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: you know. Part of to me, like an eight iron 694 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: is even if you hit it, let's say one hundred 695 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 1: and thirty yards one hundred and forty yards an eight iron. 696 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: It's like, well you can still if it's windy, chip it. 697 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: I don't know how on a hybrid you would hit 698 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: like one hundred and thirty yards shot would be my question. 699 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 1: It's like he swings so hard sometimes he gets close, 700 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 1: Like how does Bryson ease into one hundred and ten 701 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: yard shot when he's hitting a nine iron one hundred 702 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: and ninety yards. To me, it's similar mindset with the hybrid, 703 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 1: like how do you how do you hit something one 704 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty three yards if you have a nine 705 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: iron hybrid. I'm the wrong guy to ask on that. 706 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,720 Speaker 1: I would say my initial reaction, even if you're getting 707 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: older and your distance is diminished, would still would be no. Okay. 708 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: Last question, do you think that's a good or bad 709 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: thing for the Ryder Cup. It was in relation to 710 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: my tweet saying that Keegan has probably dreamt about blowing 711 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: up the Good Old Boys Club. I would say if 712 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: guys were playing well and it was like, hey, you 713 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: just can't lay speed Morikawa, all these guys were no brainers. 714 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: It would be stupid if Keegan wanted just to go 715 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 1: against the grain because Zach Johnson screwed him. But given 716 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: the situation, like, what are we talking about one at 717 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, this is an exhibition, 718 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: This is not a major. I understand like Keegan approaches 719 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: like a major and it's really serious to him. But 720 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 1: we're also not talking about like Tiger Wood and Phil 721 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: Mickelson in their prime. We're discussing Patrick Cantlay, who can't 722 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 1: make a cut at a major. We're talking about Jordan Speith, 723 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,399 Speaker 1: who just hasn't been that good lately. And we're talking 724 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: about Cam Young, who has a track record of being 725 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: a really good player. Chris got her up that ideally 726 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 1: maybe he one day can be a consistent Ryder Cup 727 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: player and a top twenty ish, you know, golfer on 728 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,919 Speaker 1: the on the PGA Tour, top fifteen guy, top ten guy. 729 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: So I don't think is that crazy at all. I 730 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: think JJ spawn winning the US Open really through kind 731 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: of a wrench and everything because he's going to take 732 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: an automatic spot. But I got no problem with anything 733 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: Kegan wants to do. If he wants to keep can't 734 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: lay and speak, I will understand it, though I would 735 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 1: go the opposite, like I get taking Patrick Cantlay. He's 736 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,360 Speaker 1: been awesome in the event. I think he's like his 737 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: career record's like five and two and he gets into it. 738 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: So like I could see Patrick Cantlay a little like 739 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas being a bright lights guy. Speak to me, 740 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: he's not in it, Like, I don't think he can 741 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 1: takes speed if you wanted to be like Morikawa, don't 742 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,919 Speaker 1: like your vibes, you're not playing well. Not gonna argue either. 743 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: I think if he picks himself, you would like to 744 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,919 Speaker 1: see the little more signs of life the next couple 745 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: of weeks. But I'd get that too, Like he's one 746 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: of our best players, So if he wants to pick himself, 747 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 1: totally understandable. This isn't you're not like a player coach, 748 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: this isn't an NFL playoff game. Like, it's very doable. 749 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: I think to be a player captain, I think it's possible, 750 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna be able to focus on 751 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: doing it, given his passion for it. But I think 752 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,959 Speaker 1: everything should be on the table right now. It's much 753 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: easier for the Euros to pick the team. Their team 754 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 1: is pretty well established in terms of like the hierarchy 755 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: Ours is not ours, simply is not you know you 756 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: feel really good about Scott e Xander, and Bryceton. Even 757 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas played pretty well this year. I mean really well. 758 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: I would say most of the other guys on the team, 759 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: Like I like JJ Spond seemed like a great guy, 760 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: But like, do you feel comfortable about JJ Spond against 761 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: these guys in that moment? Not really? I mean, do 762 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: you feel great Russell Henley really good player you been 763 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: in your life? Like he's gonna kick ass and take 764 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 1: names in this environment? I don't know. So it's just 765 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 1: it's gonna be fascinating to watch. That's what's sad is 766 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: I wish this event was even during the NFL preseason. 767 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: I'd be so excited, But it's during football, and most 768 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: of you guys, it's gonna be hard to pay attention. 769 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: Even if you've got multiple televisions like red Zone, Chief 770 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: Ravens like who knows who Ohio State and Texas and 771 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,479 Speaker 1: all these teams are gonna be playing, it's just hard 772 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 1: to compete with football. In twenty twenty five, the volume
