Everybody's here but Seaton, 5 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: he's at home. I'll have his share today. Man, does 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 1: it smell good this morning? Yeah?

I don't need any of that we got. 9 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: Paulie got a mountain dew cake for Todd. Todd loves 10 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: mountain dew. And it's a it's a pie, it's it's 11 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 1: it's I think it's World Kindness Day. Do something nice 12 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: for somebody, but make sure somebody notices you're doing something 13 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: nice for him. I thought it looked like maybe one 14 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: of the holes at Augusta, and you were doing sort 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: of sort of a model of what the whole, like 16 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: fourteenth hole at Augusta would look like. And I realized, No, 17 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: that's a mountain dew pie that was baked by Alan, 18 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: who is our it chef guy. Yeah, pol the cake 19 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: looks like the Seattle Seahawks color rush uniforms. Let's put 20 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: it down Yeah, it's like there's a nice like pie 21 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: crust with some type of toxics. If you set your 22 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,559 Speaker 1: phone on it, it it will recharge. Yeah, I've never seen 23 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: that bright a green. It's like kryptonite like times ten. Yeah. 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 1: Just imagine if you want to put a cool lint 25 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: in your car. This would be the cool lint that 26 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: you would put in your car. But we got it 27 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: for Todd later on today if he would like to 28 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: have it, good God, we don't want to give it 29 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 1: to you in the first hour, no telling what it'll 30 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: do to your inside. And kindness. I don't know how 31 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: kind that is to the people in that clean their studio. 32 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: I have that. But yes, it's World Kindness Day. Do 33 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: something nice for somebody, but make sure that everybody knows 34 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: you're doing something nice. Don't do it in a subtle 35 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: private way. According to PAULI let people know you're doing 36 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: something nice. Yeah. I guess the purpose of a world 37 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: kind of stay is you do an act, but you 38 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: make a really grand gesture out of it. You tell 39 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: people you did it, So it's maybe a self aggrandizement 40 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: day as well. But I guess it's so it will 41 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: catch on. So should we all do that for each 42 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: other today. No, I think just for to I think 43 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: I think we're one and done. Yes, mclovin. So it's 44 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,399 Speaker 1: world phony day, is what you're saying. But you're still 45 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: doing something nice. You just want somebody to know that 46 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: you're doing something nice. Yeah, which defeats, in my opinion, 47 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: defeats the purpose. Like Pauli's did you do anything nice privately? 48 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: I've done lots of nice things today, like what you're right, 49 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: it's a o'clock I plan to do, but I'm not 50 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: gonna give you. Charity that's done for public is almost 51 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: worse than no charity. I find the hypocrisy of social 52 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: media and charity. So when somebody donates a large sum 53 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,839 Speaker 1: of money and then they tell you they donated, then 54 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: you have a problem with that. Not necessarily, but I 55 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: do have a problem with the general mindset of our 56 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: world where people are just like saying, oh, I'm such 57 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: a great dude because I did this, yes, ton. It's 58 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: like when a celebrity or athlete visits a sick kid 59 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: in the hospital or whatever. I don't know if you 60 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: need to get the publicist, the agent and the manager 61 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: involved so they can you know, let all the news 62 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 1: stations and everyone make sure they got the cameras ready 63 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: to take a shot. Well, but that's always that's a 64 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: little bit that's unfair because I've done that before and 65 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: I didn't know that there would be people in there 66 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: taking pictures. You told me to bring my camera every 67 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: time I did, I did an a video recorder as 68 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: well and alert the media. Um. You know, it's like 69 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: you go in there and they want publicity for the 70 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: hospital and the treatment and the care and the patients. 71 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: So that's a that's a little bit different. Uh, you know, 72 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: it's not like we're alerting the media. I remember talking 73 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: to a photographer and he's in Hollywood and he's one 74 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: of those photographers that's following all these celebrities around, and 75 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: I said, how do you know where they're going to be? 76 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: And he goes, they tell us. I go, oh, they 77 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: call ahead. He goes, well, they're publicists or you know somebody, 78 00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: some have relations relationships with the photographers. But I know, 79 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: it's always amazing. It's like, how did you know they 80 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: were gonna be there? And he said, yeah, they always 81 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: give us a heads up. Usually we asked for you know, 82 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: twenty to thirty minutes heads up and then we'll be 83 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: there and get him coming out of a restaurant or 84 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: they have a new boyfriend or girlfriend they want to 85 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: show off, and I went, oh, okay here, I thought 86 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: your job was tough. Yeah, mcglobin. I think I'm like 87 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: kind of getting into what Todd's healking about, like the 88 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: energy of like you know, like there's a famous viral 89 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: video of a woman jumps out of her car and 90 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: grabs an electric drill at a rebuilding site, has it, 91 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: takes an Instagram photo and then puts a drill down. 92 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: You know, there is a lot of that energy out 93 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: there where it's more for Instagram than it is for charity. Yes, 94 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: point well, what if it's altruistic on both sides. Imagine 95 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: someone like JJ Watt when he did the thing for charity, 96 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: but by going public with it, Yes, it helps his brand, 97 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: it helps his CUE rating what he called, but he 98 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: also gets millions of dollars that he wouldn't have gotten 99 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: if he did it privately. And also, I think celebrities 100 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: and other people who do things publicly charity wise think 101 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: to themselves, I can are other people that think maybe 102 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna lean towards doing that when I wouldn't have before. Yeah, 103 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: I just like the idea that it's better to never 104 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: do anything nice for anyone. Then you can't get accused 105 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: of being phony. Right, I'm just keeping it real. I 106 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: don't do anything for anyone ever. Yes, but at least 107 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 1: I'm real about it. But but I do it for 108 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: a good reason. I do it for a good cause, 109 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: right me? Yeah, I do for myself. All right, we 110 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: got we got hijacked here. Let me bring it back 111 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: on to the rails.

Paul Casey right now leading the Masters, you 128 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: have those who didn't finish up yesterday finishing up this morning. Also, 129 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: what happens when they finish up today, then they'll be 130 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of time lapsed time between those are 131 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 1: going out for their second round because they have to 132 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: go back to a eighteen holes and then recut the 133 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: cups for the new pins there. So they finish up, 134 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: everybody goes in, probably get something to eat, and then 135 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: those who are ready to tee off this morning will 136 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: go out, and you know you're gonna have golfers aren't 137 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: going to finish their rounds. Those who finish yesterday morning 138 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: will not finish their rounds this afternoon. Hopefully over the 139 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: weekend they're able to make up for this. There is 140 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: possibility if the event goes long, the Masters goes too 141 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: long on Sunday and cuts into NFL action, they will 142 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,679 Speaker 1: switch I guess over to ABC from what I'm told 143 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: ABC would carry the final couple holes of the Masters. 144 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: But getting way ahead of ourselves on this Friday, twenty 145 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: twenty has been obviously the strangest sports calendar in history. 146 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: But once the game's got going, this was the weekend 147 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: a lot of his thought, I'm going to circle that 148 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: one on my calendar. Because we knew we were going 149 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: to have NFL, we were supposed to have a big 150 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: college football weekend, but the SEC was basically sent to 151 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: the sidelines with COVID, and of course we were going 152 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: to have the Masters instead of April in November. Nobody 153 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: wanted to see it this way. We want the Masters 154 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: in April. We wanted galleries out there, patrons, but that's 155 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: not going to happen. But it's a once in a 156 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: lifetime situation, at least I hope it is, and you 157 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: know it's on our plate. Enjoy it. What a weekend, 158 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: A hunker down on the couch. You're going to have 159 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: to bring your A game to the remote control here. 160 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: But either way, we're gonna need a lot of time 161 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: to be able to kind of sift through everything that 162 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 1: we have going on this weekend in all the different sports. 163 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: But after everything that's happened. It's more than okay for 164 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: what should be a memorable sports weekend. When Tiger's on 165 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: the leaderboard, the Masters is always entertaining. I wanted to 166 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: see the course, see what it looked like. It looks 167 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: the same a little less, you know, Foliage, it doesn't 168 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: sound the same. And I was also wondering about that. 169 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: There's certain players when there is a gallery, when there 170 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: are patrons, they almost enhances who they are and how 171 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: they play. You know, when Tiger does something, the crowd responds, 172 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson, there's certain players that would benefit more from 173 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: patrons being there than some of these other players. You 174 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: don't have that home course advantage built in at august 175 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: this week, but we'll keep an eye on the leaderboard here. 176 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: Bryson Deshambo I saw were Nick Faldo love Fudo. Fudo 177 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: said that the first hole at Augusta's four hundred and 178 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: forty five yards, and Nick Faldo said that if Deshambo 179 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: put it on the green that he would run around 180 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: Augusta naked. Deshambo he pulled his drive left into the 181 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: roft and Faudo didn't have to get naked. But de 182 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: Shambo came into the Masters with an average drive of 183 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: three hundred and forty four yards, and that's more than 184 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: ten yards clear of the next closest golfer. Plus you 185 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: have to understand, you know, the first hole at Augusta, 186 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: you go uphill. Nobody's reaching that green, But there are 187 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: certain greens that you know. Deshambo is going to be 188 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: able to do some things that nobody's ever done at Augusta. 189 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: But this is what's great about golf. Larry mo Is 190 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: sixty two years of age. He shot two under. Bryson 191 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: de Shambo shot two under yesterday. Augusta played as a 192 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: golf course for everybody, and if you don't hit it long, 193 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: you were able to survive. You were able to thrive. 194 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: Bernhard Linger is playing extremely well today. I think he's 195 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: sixty three or sixty four and he might be five 196 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: or six under. Golf is you know, that's what's fascinating 197 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: about it. We've all played with somebody who doesn't hit 198 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 1: it very far, but it always seems like they get 199 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: up and down and you go, how you doing that? 200 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: And then they'll be the guy who just bombs it. 201 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: But he can't do anything else at Augusta, at least today, yesterday. 202 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: You're able to take dead aim and that helps some 203 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: of these hitters who don't hit very far. Paul questioned me, 204 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: glov and what do you have for me today? Okay? 205 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: Who finishes first or higher? I don't know. He's a 206 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: higher or lower Tiger? Woods right and Dschembo Tigers at 207 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: minus four fire, but you shoot lower right Tiger. Who's 208 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: gonna have a better week? Tiger or Bryson Dcembo Okay, 209 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: because I was actually worried when Bryson hooked that. I'm like, oh, 210 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: it's over or he had a seven right, yeah, but 211 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: he seemed like he's in a good spot. It's very 212 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: rare for somebody to win the Masters if they have 213 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: a double bogie in any round, very very very rare. 214 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: You know, you you may not have all pars bogie's. Uh, 215 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: you know a couple of bogies here. You're gonna have bogies, 216 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: but the double bogie that that usually you know, stands out. 217 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: And maybe Ethan, who does our stands you guys know Ethan, Yeah, 218 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: maybe you can do some research and back up my 219 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: claim that I don't have any research to back it 220 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: up right now, but I think it's been a while 221 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: since somebody's won the Masters with a double bogie. Yes, Polly, 222 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are hoping for more 223 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: foliage at Augusta this year, and you were, I was. 224 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: I think others. Uh no, you would want to see 225 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: that course all emblazon and red and browns. No, it 226 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,599 Speaker 1: still looks great. Oh yeah, it still looks spectacular, the 227 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: originality of it. I'm a little disappointed. Also, there not 228 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: a lot of white pants this year because it's November 229 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: and the guy's respect not wearing white pants after you know, 230 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: labnay other things. I noticed. I'm not going to break 231 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: down golf game. I know. Paully came in and h 232 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: everybody was sitting around talking about the Masters, and Paully goes, 233 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: you know what I observed, You know, don't have anybody 234 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: wearing some bright colors. You know, we don't have those 235 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: springtime colors. And I go, what and and I didn't 236 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: notice a lot of white colored slacks, And I go, 237 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: this is what differentiates this show from all the other shows. 238 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: Tigers were in earth tones. It's like a topie brown 239 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: and I know that's sort of a blend in the 240 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: background type of outfit today. Yes, McLevin. I was gonna 241 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: ask a real golf question all those headlines Bryson D. 242 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: Shambo is gonna tear apart the master's course. Its gotta 243 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: is it is one day enough to know that's not 244 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: going to happen. Or can we be confident that he's 245 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: not going to redefine the way masters play is? Well, 246 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 1: it's on one round here. I mean he's not gonna 247 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: he's obviously I gonna run away to some record masters 248 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: thing like people were talking about. No, but I just 249 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: want to see I mentioned this on Wednesday. You can 250 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: hit it three hundred and fifty yards, but where are 251 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: you hitting it three hundred and fifty yards? You still 252 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: have to play that. This isn't a long drive contest. 253 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: You have to play your next shot. Augusta is all 254 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: about your second shot. It's always been and hopefully always 255 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: will be. It's your second shot that's so important. Where 256 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: are you yardage in a sidehill? Lie? What club are 257 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,239 Speaker 1: you using? What are the greens like? Are they receptive? 258 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: And can you chip and put? I mean that's what 259 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: this is all about. There are guys who bomb it, 260 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: but you got it the local knowledge of being able 261 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: to chip and put is unlike any other course in 262 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: America in the world, because they played every single year. 263 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: It sounds like I've gone to a master class in 264 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: the Masters. But the master class offers over nighty classes 265 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: on a variety of topics, all topped by world class 266 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 1: masters at the top top of their field.

Okay, philip Rivers 282 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: first battle Hall of Famer without even looking at the numbers, 283 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: yes or no? You know what, let me ask Sam 284 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: Munson of Pro Football Focus is Philip Rivers. Michael Irvin 285 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: did an interview with Philip Rivers. It ran last night 286 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: and he said, Hey, I'll see you in five years 287 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: at the Hall of Fame. And I guess as a 288 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: first ballot Hall of Famer, I guess it's not as 289 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: rare when you go, oh, first ballot Hall of Famer. 290 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: This is big in baseball where you're like, oh, you're 291 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: not a first ballot Hall of Famer? Are you a 292 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer? Yeah? Yeah, but we're not letting in 293 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: on the first ballot. It feels like, you know, Jason 294 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: Taylor went into the Dolphins on the first ballot. Now, 295 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: he did have a letter of recommendation from Tom Brady, 296 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: and Jason Taylor was a very good player, great player, 297 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: but first ballot. All right, Philip Rivers, first ballot. If 298 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: he doesn't do anything in the playoffs the rest of 299 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: his career, I don't think he's a first ballot Hall 300 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: of Famer. And I know that you look at the 301 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: numbers and I go, okay, that the one thing that 302 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: really stands out to meet with Philip Rivers. He doesn't 303 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: miss games at that position. He does not miss games. 304 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: How many games has he missed in his career? Mclevit 305 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: due to injury? Yeah? Check less than five? Yeah, Polly, 306 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: I got double check this has he not missed a 307 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: game in his career? I don't have him missing a 308 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: game in his career due to injury because you do 309 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: not count his first two years when he rode the 310 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: bench because of the quarterback situation. It's pretty amazing. He 311 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: started quarterbacking at six and I've got him sixteen for 312 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: sixteen and nine for nine this year. I've never heard 313 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: they even brought up before. Yeah, that's what stands out, 314 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: that he was there. You have to be able to 315 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: play and be there for your team at that position, 316 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: and for him to be able to do that, that's 317 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: a truly remarkable stat. Now we've had, you know, Brett 318 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: Farve and I think Peyton Manning for a while they 319 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: were eli on the consecutive games list. But he is 320 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: not mister starting yeapole. He's been sacked four hundred and 321 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: fifty three times, I mean, and he's never been like 322 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: a big stack where he's you know seventy sexs a year, 323 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: but he ever just thirty. You still think out of 324 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: four hundred, chances are somebody's gonna hit you in a 325 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 1: way that's really gonna hurt you. Put you out, yes 326 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: to you think with all the kids he has, he 327 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: would admits at least one for childbirth. I think he's 328 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: a he's a pregnancy manager, like a game manager, like 329 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: he knows, you know, he's got this planned out. He's 330 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: a field general, is what he is. To field general. 331 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: All right, let me take a break. We got the 332 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: halfway Point Awards coming up with Pro Football focus is 333 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, first ballot Hall of Famer. We do get 334 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: all fired up about these things and then once they 335 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: go in and we don't care anymore about it. But 336 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: leading up to it, we're like, it's five years away. 337 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: Let's start discussing this.

Sam monson Pro Football Focus, Lead NFL analysts, Sam, 345 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: good morning, Thanks for joining us. Let me start with 346 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: that question. The Hall of Fame, it feels like, is 347 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: based off of the feelings we have for these players. 348 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: When the writers get together and they nominate somebody, they're 349 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: very passionate about it. You deal with analytics, just the 350 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: analytical part of this with Philip Rivers, Is he a 351 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: first ballot Hall of Famer? I think it's tough because 352 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: you're comparing into the guys from bygone eras for whom 353 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: we don't really have all that data. I mean, one 354 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 1: of the great things about PFF, whether you agree with 355 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: our numbers or you disagree with them, is we have 356 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: the grading on every single player on every single play 357 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: since we started doing this back in two thousand and six. 358 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: So we can at least try and compare these guys 359 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: like for like. But it gets really hard when you 360 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: start trying to say, all, right, Blip Rivers just passed 361 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 1: Dan Marino on the all time passing yards list. But 362 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: I don't think there's anybody out there that saw both 363 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: those guys play that would say Philip Rivers is a 364 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: better quarterback than Dan Marino. Dan Marino was obviously a 365 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer and no one would argue that. But 366 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 1: because of this explosion in passing and how much easier 367 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: it is to play quarterback in today's NFL and how 368 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: all these guys are now at the top of the 369 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: all time lists, does that put Philip Rivers in? I 370 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: don't know who's more of a first ballot Hall of 371 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: Fame or Frank Gore or Philip Rivers. I think Philip Rivers. 372 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: I think Frank Gore's legacy is this insane durability that 373 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: really is remarkable when you look at what he was 374 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: as a prospect, Like he dropped in the draft because 375 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: people were concerned that he'd had multiple knee surgeries and 376 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: that he wouldn't last in the NFL. And then the 377 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: defining characteristic of Frank Gore's there's nothing that can knock 378 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: this guy out of the league and he just keeps 379 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: on trucking. Well, the same thing with Philip Rivers. He 380 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: hasn't missed a game. True, true, but I think Philip 381 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: rivers peaks have been higher than Frank Gore's. I think 382 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: you can make the case that Philip Rivers has been 383 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 1: genuinely one of the best quarterbacks over the past over 384 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: his entire career. I don't know that you can really 385 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: make that case for Frank Gore outside of a season 386 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: or two if you were going to redraft this first round. 387 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: I saw where you looked at the first round and 388 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: went back and looked at how these rookies are performing. 389 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: What is there somebody that stands out that that they 390 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: would have changed the draft, that they would have gone 391 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: either higher or lower based hall after eight games, that 392 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: where how they performed where they were drafted. I think 393 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: Minnesota's Justin Jefferson would definitely be higher up the list, 394 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: and he is now. He might be the first receiver 395 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: off the board if we had a chance to redo 396 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: all this all again, all of his concerns when we 397 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: were looking at him as a college prospect as well. 398 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: He did incredibly from the slot. But can he play outside? 399 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 1: Excuse me? Can he play outside when he has to 400 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: deal with press coverage? Can he still get off the line? 401 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: Can he still do all that sunvy rout running stuff. 402 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: The ants or is overwhelmingly yes, and that just immediately 403 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,439 Speaker 1: puts you further up the draft because you're a more 404 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: impactful player when you can play outside and deal with 405 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: the press coverage. At the NFL level, He's been an 406 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: absolute superstar wide receiver, and I think very much the 407 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: match of any of those top first round guys. Highest 408 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: grade you've given to a rookie this year is who 409 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: I think right now, it's actually Michael Owen, who the 410 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 1: New England Patriots. I guess utility offensive lineman because he's 411 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: played three different positions and done them all well. But 412 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: this was not a highly tired draft pick. He's just 413 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: come in and been an absolute force, particularly in the 414 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: run game, and filled in wherever they've need him, whether 415 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: it's right tackle, whether it's the guard position, and really 416 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: been phenomenal. I mean, you know, I've seen people say 417 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: that if this guy was a first round or we'd 418 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: be talking about how New England's draft was fantastic because 419 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 1: they snagged this Pro Bowl all caliber player right at 420 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: the top of the draft. But because he's a you know, 421 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: a lower round guy, it's kind of passing almost unnoticed 422 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: higher grade for Joe Burrow or Justin Herbert. It's funny 423 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 1: because they're in almost exactly the same spot. They're really 424 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: tied together in terms of grading but the grade comes 425 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: about in almost completely opposite ways. Joe Burrow has been 426 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: incredibly consistent, particularly up to the sort of deep big shots, 427 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,479 Speaker 1: anything below twenty yards. He's been absolute money and has 428 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: been doing it in the face of incredible pressure in Cincinnati. 429 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert is like the king of the volatile stats. 430 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: So whether it's third down play, whether it's deep throws 431 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: down the field, whether it's you know, all those big 432 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: time throws and those kinds of things the PF charts, 433 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: He's been a phenomenal at those things, but has missed 434 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: more regular easy throws, miss more of the kind of 435 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: consistently easy stuff than Joe Burrow has, and he's been 436 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: dealing with pressure as well, and it kind of nets 437 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: out to almost the exact same PF grade overall. What 438 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: about Clyde Edwards Hilaire his grade in where he probably 439 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: should have been taken even though he is a running back. Yeah, 440 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: And that's really the thing is, you know, PF is 441 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 1: in this analytics group that would say, look, just don't 442 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: take a running back in the first round. It's not 443 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: that they won't ever look good, it's that they just 444 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: won't justify that draft slot. You could get him later 445 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: on the draft, or get a comparable player later on 446 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: the draft, and you'd see the same kind of production. 447 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: And I think that's kind of what we're seeing from 448 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,959 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire. He's great as Okay, he's had good games, 449 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: but really what we're seeing is this product of the 450 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: Kansas City offense. And when that thing is ticking along, 451 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: when it's going great, when Mahomes is playing out of 452 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: his mind and Patch and Andy Reid is scheming up 453 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: all these plays, Clyde Edwards Hilaire is a good player 454 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: to have on the receiving end of those catches out 455 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 1: of the backfield and be taking the carries. But when 456 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: things don't go as well, he has those worst games 457 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: and just doesn't look as good. Running Backs are basically 458 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: a product of their environment within the offense. He's Sam Munson, 459 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus, lead NFL analyst. Who do you consider 460 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: the best running back in the NFL film? I think 461 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: right now it's Dalvin Cook. Again, what I just said, 462 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: running backs are buying large a product of their environment. 463 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: He's the one guy this season that isn't. I mean, 464 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: he's been massively overperforming what the Vikings have been giving 465 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: him in terms of, you know, yards, he has by far, 466 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: I think, the most yards after contact in the NFL, 467 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: and only himself and Derrick Henry have more totally yards 468 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: than Dalvin Cook has yards after contact. He's just consistently 469 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: generating an incredible amount of yardage off his own back, 470 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: beyond what is being blocked for him. We brought this 471 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: up a couple of days ago. I asked the audience, 472 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: you could have any wide receiver for the next five years, 473 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: who do you think they picked? Dk Yea. Yeah, did 474 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 1: his slippage in the draft and his profile was just 475 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: based off he looks like he should be great, but 476 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: he's always injured. Is that what it boiled down to. No, 477 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: I think there were legitimate concerns about his change of 478 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: direction skills he had. He went to the combine and 479 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: posted this three cone time that was slower than Tom Brady. 480 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 1: It was, you know, historically bad, and he fixed it 481 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: a little bit at his pro day, Like he got 482 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 1: faster the one at the combine he slipped a little 483 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: bit and they don't let you take it again. So 484 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 1: it was a bad time there. He improved it at 485 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: his pro day, but it still wasn't good. It was 486 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: still a concern, as was his twenty shuttle time. So 487 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: anything that was trying to measure change of direction he 488 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: was really bad at. And I think that leads you 489 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: to think, well, okay, does that limit him at the 490 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: next level to just being this linear vertical threat guy 491 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 1: who can't really run the entire route tree. Even considering that, 492 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: I think most draft analysts had him going higher than 493 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: he went in the draft. It was still a shock 494 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 1: to see him slip as far as he did, but 495 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: I think there were real concerns about, you know, a 496 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: missing component to his game that has been changed that 497 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: aren't that isn't a missing component anymore. When does Pro 498 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: Football Focus do a deep dive into Trevor Lawrence and 499 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: Justin I mean, we've got guys cranking on that right now. 500 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,719 Speaker 1: We do. We grade every college game as well, so 501 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 1: we've got grades on all of these guys. Mike Renner 502 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: is our big draft guy. He's been the guy grinding 503 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: on that every single game of those guys careers. So 504 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if we have a specific deep dive 505 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: article up on the site, but we've definitely got data 506 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: on all those guys right now. Are they working in 507 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: that room behind that door behind you. Yeah, that's a 508 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: room that goes downstairs into a basement where there's just 509 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: one little light hanging out of the ceiling. That's where 510 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: we put all the analysts. Worst starting quarterback in the NFL? 511 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: Is who the worst starting quarterback? I mean, I think 512 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: you can say it was Dwayne Haskins before he lost 513 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: his job. Now it's it's going to be a battle 514 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: between you know, Sam Darnold in New York Drew Locke 515 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: in Denver hasn't shown enough really to get out of 516 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: that conversation. It's it's those kind of young guys that 517 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: have have disappointed in bad situations so far. And I 518 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: thought this was Drew Locke's coming out party and they 519 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: had weapons, and here we go with Drew Locke. I know, 520 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: we got injured, but it feels like Sam that the 521 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: window of opportunity is about two years. Like Baker Mayfields 522 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: in his third year and it feels like he's playing 523 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: for his future in Cleveland. Are you guys getting the 524 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 1: sense of how long that window is for a quarterback 525 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: to prove himself. I think you know, this run of 526 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have been successful right away have definitely changed 527 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: the opinion of how long you get, and if you 528 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: don't show something almost right away, you have to fight 529 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: pretty hard for that job, particularly if you're not a 530 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: top pick. You know, if you're a first you're number 531 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: one overall pick, you get a little bit more time 532 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 1: to show something. But if you're not, you know, you 533 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: get a year or two and then we got to 534 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: move on. It's it's time to find the next guy, 535 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: because it's not the landscape is different to the way 536 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: it was a decade ago. You're not in a spot 537 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: anymore where you have to give Alex Smith one hundred 538 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: million dollar contract because the prospect of not having Alex 539 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: Smith is so terrifying. You can find those guys pretty 540 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: easily now, and so teams are much more emboldened to say, 541 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: all right, this guy is not a Hall of Famer, 542 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: he's not the next all pro we need. We're gonna 543 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: cut bait and move on to the next guy. Do 544 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: you remember when we sort of took a player for 545 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: granted the way we do Patrick Mahomes And this feels 546 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: like the embryonic stages of Michael Jordan's greatness when he 547 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: had team's success. Prior to that, he was sort of 548 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: just a highlight reel phenomenon. Then they started winning and 549 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: it felt like we got bored with this story. And 550 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: then Karl Malone won an MVP and Charles Barkley won 551 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: an MVP. I don't are we at that stage with 552 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes where? And I know Russell has played extremely well, 553 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: But are we at the point where we're taking Patrick 554 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: mahomes were granted and I'll give you one in the 555 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: NFL as well? I think we've already passed that point 556 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: with Aaron Donald. I think you know, Aaron Donald should 557 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: have won every Defensive Player of the Year award since 558 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: his rookie season. So not the rookie season, but everyone 559 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: since then should have gone Aaron Donald, and they haven't 560 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: because we've just gotten bored giving the award to Aaron Donald, 561 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: who is by far and away the best defensive player 562 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL. I think he's the best player. How 563 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: do you gauge that, though, Sam? I mean to me, 564 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: it's how much further ahead is he than the rest 565 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: of his peers at his position? Right? So it's it's 566 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: really hard to compare positions to say the best defensive 567 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: lineman in the NFL is better than the best linebacker 568 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,479 Speaker 1: is better than the best safety, the best receiver. So 569 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: let's just stick to his position group and say how 570 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: much better is he than Fletcher Cox or Chris Jones 571 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: or whoever else the next interior guy is. And I 572 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: think it's light years ahead of those guys when you 573 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: consider how much more pressure he gets, how much more 574 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: pressure he gets on a rate basis, and how much 575 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: more he's double team than some of those guys and 576 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: still doing that. It's absolutely unbelievable. And just in terms 577 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: of PF grading, you know, the top ex seasons in 578 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: terms of PF grades on the interior have all been Donald. 579 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: It's just a list of Aaron Donald seasons that vary slightly. 580 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: So I think you're right, though, I think Mahomes is 581 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: reaching that category where you need to watch him again 582 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: to remind yourself that like this isn't normal. Most quarterbacks 583 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: don't do this, and we should remember that this guy 584 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: is a singularly unique talents otherwise we will get bored 585 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: within the same way we do with Aaron Donald. Sam 586 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: good to talk to you. Thank you very much. Thank you, 587 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: Sam Munson, Pro Football Focus lead NFL analyst.

Sam, thanks for joining us. 596 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: By the way, I love the article that you had 597 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: on the sand at Augusta. I thought it would be 598 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: great for this audience to understand because when we see 599 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: it it looks like bowls of sugar. Jim Nance is 600 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: referred to it that way. I just didn't know to 601 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: what lengths they went to bring this sand in. So 602 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: can you give us sort of the cliff notes version 603 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: of that? Yeah, Dan, thanks for having me on. So 604 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: the sand is from a place called Spruce Pine, North Carolina, 605 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: which is four hours north of Augusta. And really it's 606 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: some of the most valuable sand in the world, or 607 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: at least it's a byproduct of some of the most 608 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: valuable sand in the world. Spruce Pine Geological Mineral District 609 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: has the purest quartz in the world. It has the 610 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: fewest impurities, and they use that quartz to create computer chips. 611 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: And so, whereas quartz sand would typically sell for about 612 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:54,479 Speaker 1: fifty dollars a ton, the sand and spruce pine sells 613 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: for about twenty thousand dollars a ton. And so you 614 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: can imagine the secure of the companies up there. These 615 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: multinational corporations have convened on this little town in the 616 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: Blue Ridge Mountains, this little mountain town, and they're like 617 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: Wonka factories up there, protecting, protecting this sand. Well, the 618 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: sand that is a waste product or sort of not 619 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: quite as pure has become the sand they use at Augusta. 620 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: And it dates back to Clifford Roberts, the co founder 621 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: of the club, having a summer home up there, loving 622 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: this white sand that's just so sparkly and pure looking, 623 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: and wanting that for his club. And it's become so 624 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: coveted that Spruce Pine ships recently shipped about four thousand 625 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: tons if you can imagine that volume, four thousand tons 626 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: of this to Dubai, So imagine selling sand to the desert. Well, 627 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: that this sand is so valuable and so coveted and 628 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 1: so sort of has so much sentimental value that And 629 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: you know a few years ago a guy was arrested 630 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: here at the Masters for trying to fill his beer 631 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: cup full of sand, and so, uh wait, did he 632 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: slip inside the ropes and then just scoop it up 633 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: from us? Accidentally he accidentally fell under the ropes and 634 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: then he accidentally crawled over to a buger And how 635 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: much how much did they accidentally find him for that? 636 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: They accidentally find him twenty thousand dollars and they haven't 637 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: rectified that yet. So they accidentally handcuffed him and brought 638 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: him to the ground, and and it was quite a 639 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: quite a scene. So anyway, this uh spruce pine sand 640 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: is really cool and a lot of people really confuse 641 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: it for all different types of minerals or you know, 642 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: they don't know where it comes from. But sam, I 643 00:33:54,840 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: think they do. It sort of compacts very nicely. It's 644 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: very fine, and you know, they feel I can hit 645 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: off it, although Tiger said he feels like borrowing his 646 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 1: Caddy sunglasses every time he's in the bunker. It's so 647 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: bright and so reflective. When I played Augusta, I did 648 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: steal one of my divots. I don't. I don't know 649 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: if they will come after you if you steal some grass. 650 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a long time ago that I played, 651 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 1: but I remember hitting an approach shot on either thirteen 652 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: or fifteen and I went, man, that almost looks like 653 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: a professional divot. I'm taking I'll put it in my bag. 654 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: Got home years later I go, oh my god, I 655 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: kept this up divot and I had it in my 656 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: bag there. So I don't know if if they police that, well, 657 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: you know, I would imagine they do. It's interesting. I 658 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: believe it was Sean Powell as sportswriter Sean Powell, whose 659 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: first two rounds of golf came at peb will beat 660 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: and I'll imagine your first two rounds golf A Double 661 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: Beach and Augusta his first two rounds of golf because 662 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: he played at the US Open, the US Open Media Day, 663 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 1: and then he won the lottery here at Augusta to 664 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: play on the Monday after the Masters. Oh my god. 665 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: Pretty much want to call it a career after that? 666 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: Just get Pine Valley in and call it a career. 667 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 1: Sam Farmer, la Times writer. He covers the NFL, host 668 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: of Artificial Friends podcast. Here we were talking about Philip Rivers. 669 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: Michael Irvin did an interview last night and he said, 670 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: I'll see in five years at the Hall of Fame 671 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 1: is Philip Rivers. Let me just start with, is he 672 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: headed to the Hall of Fame and is he a 673 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: first ballot Hall of Famer? Well, in my book, he's 674 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: the first ballot Hall of Fame guy. One of my 675 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: favorite players ever covering Philip Rivers, and certainly it's going 676 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: to haunt him that he had warning track power with 677 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: the Chargers. They had some really good teams, especially two 678 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 1: thousand and six, going fourteen and two and then losing 679 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 1: in the Division round their first game. You know, they 680 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: never took it beyond although he played really well in 681 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: the AFC Championship game against the Patriots, had him I 682 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: think it's a one score game into the fourth quarter 683 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: and he's playing on a torn acl So you know, 684 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a tough argument. As a first ballot 685 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, you've got to see who's going in 686 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 1: in that class along with him. But as a person, 687 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: there's no better guy. And it's it surprises a lot 688 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: of people because they see him on the field and 689 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: being so uh, you know, throwing temper, tantrums on the 690 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: field and everything, but he is the the greatest guy. 691 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: I'll tell you a little Philip Rivers story. He had 692 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 1: to do a he committed to do a men's retreat, 693 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 1: and he's very devout in his Catholicism, a men's retreat 694 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: in Arizona. When he was in San Diego and there 695 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,760 Speaker 1: was a weather problem or something something happened with the flight, 696 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: so he couldn't make it. And most every guy would 697 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: call and apologize and say sorry, I couldn't make it. 698 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 1: This guy hops in his pickup truck, makes the drive 699 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: to Arizona overnight, does the talk, drives back, so he 700 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: does about fourteen hours of driving just so he can 701 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: make good on that commitment. So he's you know. I 702 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,959 Speaker 1: remember he and his wife took a vacation, a staycation 703 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: to the Hotel Del Coronado one time, and as they 704 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: were checking in this beautiful hotel in San Diego, Dwayne 705 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: Wade was checking in at the same time, and they 706 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: sort of caught eyes and Dayne Wade gave him a 707 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 1: head nod like that. Philip talked about it for a 708 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:46,919 Speaker 1: week to his wife, saying Dwayne Wade knew and He's 709 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: the guy who nodded to me. He knew who I was. 710 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: Did you see that? And so it's sort of that 711 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: tells you a lot about Philip Rivers. He's so unimpressed 712 00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: with himself that he will That will go down as 713 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 1: one of his greatest moments that Dwayne Wade recognized him 714 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,320 Speaker 1: and Philip Rivers with the Pro Bowl Quarterbacks. So again, 715 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: hall of Fame guy and probably a Hall of Fame player, 716 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: but I'd sort of need to know who was around 717 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: him at that time. Best team in California right now too, well, 718 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: you know, the Chargers are so talented, they can't they 719 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 1: can't win games, so I can't give it to them, 720 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: and the forty nine ers are so broken down. I 721 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: would have to say the Rams. But you really have 722 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: to wonder if teams shut down the running game the 723 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: way that Miami did and put it on Jared Goff's shoulders, 724 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: is he going to be able to come through for you? 725 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 1: And I think we'll know a lot coming out of 726 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: this out of this by how the Rams are, how 727 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: they recover their playing Seattle. Sean mcvay's four and two 728 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: against Pete Carroll and those two losses came by a 729 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: total of seven points. He's six and oh against Arizona, 730 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: and so we're going to learn a lot about this division. 731 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: But you know, four other five wins have come against 732 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: NFC East teams and NFC East I think I wrote 733 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: that NFC East wins have all the gravitas of packing peanuts. 734 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: So we just don't know how good how good these 735 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 1: teams are and we're going to find out in the 736 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 1: second half of the season. And I mentioned this, I'll 737 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: leave you with this. I don't know if we're getting 738 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: to the Jordan treatment of Patrick Mahomes where what else 739 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 1: can we say? What else can we write? Now we're 740 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: looking at hey is Kyler Murray an MVP candidate Russell 741 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: Wilson deserves to be in the conversation. I think when 742 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: people look at Mahomes's numbers, they go, oh, my god, 743 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 1: how do we bypass that? Like we just skipped by 744 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: that because we're like, oh, it's Mahomes, He's really good. 745 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 1: And I and you guys love to write a good 746 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 1: story here. And that goes into when people vote vote. 747 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: Sometimes you're voting because you're voting for the best story. 748 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: Have we is there Mahomes fatigue already. It's funny. Mahomes 749 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: is so good that the little things that you used 750 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: to do that would have blown us away, switching hands 751 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 1: or rolling out and making these incredible passes, it's almost 752 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,240 Speaker 1: worked against him because now we say, oh, yeah, that's Mahomes. 753 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: We've seen it, seeing it, you know, and he's still 754 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: doing things that are that are unbelievable. You know. I 755 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: think back I talked to Bruce Arians about Patrick Mahomes 756 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:35,479 Speaker 1: because Cardinals really wanted to draft him when Bruce was there, 757 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 1: and Bruce said, you know, he's one of the four 758 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: smartest guys on the board I've ever had. And I said, well, 759 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: who are the guys and he said, well, you know 760 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: Peyton and i'd certainly say Andrew Luck putting him up 761 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: on the board, and Patrick Mahomes. And I said, he said, well, 762 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you the fourth guy, he said, 763 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: because every other guy I coached will think he's the 764 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: guy that's perfect. But yeah, Mahomes is great. And not 765 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,320 Speaker 1: to belabor this, but I think it really if you 766 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: look back at the NFC West and you mentioned two 767 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks there, I think the NFC West fits 768 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,800 Speaker 1: in two very distinct buckets. You've got the play action 769 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: good defense teams in LA with the Rams in San Francisco, 770 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: and you've got the shortstop type quarterback who each quarterback 771 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: played baseball and who makes things happen in Seattle and Arizona, 772 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: and really defenses that leave something to be desired. So 773 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see in the second half of 774 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 1: this season, when these teams aren't playing each other, which 775 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: side prevails.

Here's it's 791 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 1: life simple, Dan, you know this. You know this well, 792 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 1: Eat what you like to eat, don't eat what you 793 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 1: don't like to eat. The end. What are you eating 794 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: down in Augusta. I just had a chicken sandwich with 795 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: Curtis Strange and um and it was just spectacular. I'm 796 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: trying what I'm trying to figure out right now. Dan 797 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 1: is like, it's the it's the old adage. One is 798 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 1: too many in ten isn't enough. I don't know what. 799 00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what the I don't I don't know 800 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 1: what the sweet bought is here because we we're going 801 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:03,240 Speaker 1: back on the air here in a couple of hours, 802 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: and I'm afraid if I eat another two or three 803 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 1: that I may be slumbering in the in the bubbler cabin, 804 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 1: which is not a good look. What was your big 805 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: takeaway from yesterday? Just that the golf course was absolutely 806 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: as gettable as it will ever be. The conditions were, 807 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 1: the rain, it was like a perfect It was the 808 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: perfect such set up for these players because the rain 809 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: comes through, then it leaves it's still it's soft and 810 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: these they just annihilated it. And it wasn't that someone shot, 811 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 1: you know, sixty two, it's how many guys shot sixty 812 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: eight to sixty five, including Bernhard Longer who's sixty three 813 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 1: years old. I mean, it was amazing display of scoring 814 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: and what that essentially did was kept I don't know 815 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: thirty guys in it, you know. I mean, if you 816 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: were like Rory mcloy, was just such a jarring thing 817 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 1: to see him play as poorly as he did, considering 818 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 1: that basically every other top player in the world was read. 819 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,800 Speaker 1: But I'm curious about Bryson Deshambo and how other players 820 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 1: think of him. Patrick Reid. We kind of know how 821 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 1: they feel about Patrick Reid. But is is Ryson Deshambo 822 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 1: polarizing the person or the player? I think so because 823 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 1: I think I think what guys I don't think this. 824 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 1: I know this. I know what they roll their eyes about. 825 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: Is this sort of you know, suggestion that you know 826 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,959 Speaker 1: he's got. It's like this math equation to be figured out, 827 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: you know. And even when he talked to Ronaldi after 828 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 1: the round yesterday, it was like, yeah, I was at 829 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: forty seven percent, like it was a three degree Like, 830 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: what are you even talking about? Man? Like speak English? 831 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,800 Speaker 1: I mean you're talking, you're talking in math equations that 832 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 1: the rest of us mortals don't grasp. And I'll tell 833 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: you the fatigue, Like, let me, let me make one 834 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 1: thing clear. They all respect the hell out of his game, 835 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,319 Speaker 1: and they know he's he's a problem. Okay. I mean 836 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 1: he was an amateur champion and an NCAA champion, and 837 00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: they thought he was going to be good to begin with. 838 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: Then he gains all this muscle and he starts hitting 839 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 1: the ball, you know, thirty yards beyond anybody else. But 840 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 1: the fatigue is, all right, let's what are we doing? 841 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 1: Like I get Tiger being the topic when he shows up. 842 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 1: He won fifteen of these things, all right, the guy 843 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 1: won one, and now he's the only thing that anyone 844 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 1: can talk about. Like that's kind of their reaction. And 845 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 1: if you're going to ask Dustin Johnson about someone else, 846 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 1: he's just gonna look at you like, I mean, I'm 847 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: not really that interested in him as a topic. So 848 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,760 Speaker 1: I think just the amount the tonnage of conversation about 849 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,399 Speaker 1: him is would push his guys back a bit. Well, 850 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: we also had that with Tiger where I knew that 851 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: there was Tiger fatigue when I was talking to a 852 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 1: player who would won a major and he started the 853 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 1: conversation by saying, give me your Tiger questions. Now let's 854 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,319 Speaker 1: get him out of the way. I don't know if 855 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: that's the feeling you're getting or we're going to get. Yes. 856 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: With Bryon, yes, I think you've already gotten that. And 857 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: again with Tiger, it was because he won, you know, 858 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 1: any so fast, and you know, in in Bryson's case, 859 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: it's he won the most recent one. And all credit 860 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 1: to him. He was, you know, remarkable at wingfoot. None. 861 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 1: None of what I'm saying is minimizing what he is 862 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: or you know, attempting to. It's simply trying to frame 863 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:20,280 Speaker 1: it as what it is. It's it's one and people 864 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,879 Speaker 1: think they'll be more, and there might be. Um, but 865 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: this is kind of what we do with anything. Now. Um. 866 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 1: We we've got we gotten to the point where and 867 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, with Lebron, if you win a title, does 868 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: this mean that he's he's the same as Jordan. Well, 869 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:34,839 Speaker 1: I mean I can count, you know, and I can 870 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,399 Speaker 1: I'm not counting to as many now that we can, 871 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: we can count other things too, right. I just think 872 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 1: any like one equals it's like dog years now one 873 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 1: equals seven somehow, um, and that's what we just we 874 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 1: need to be capable of talking about more than one thing. 875 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: I was listening to h Golf Channel Live at the 876 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 1: Master's last night following the round. Justin Leonard was on, 877 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 1: and I thought he brought up a great analogy for Tiger. 878 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,720 Speaker 1: Tiger used to be Nolan Ryan. He would just blow 879 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: people away. There was nobody like him. He was this phenomenon, 880 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 1: and now he's more like Greg Maddox that he has 881 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 1: to kind of outthink you and massage a golf course 882 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 1: a little bit more. And I thought it was really 883 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 1: thought out because for Tiger, he sort of did that yesterday. 884 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,239 Speaker 1: You're not going to overpower a golf course and he 885 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 1: might not reach the par fives in two, but the 886 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 1: thinking man Tiger is equally as dangerous. And I think 887 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: that's what stood out to me yesterday. Yeah, that's that's 888 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: what Justin said. That's that's phenomenal because it's it's I 889 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 1: feel like it's really accurate. You know, there was a 890 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: time there around two thousand Pebble Beach where he was 891 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: throwing it one hundred and ten, you know, and no 892 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:46,319 Speaker 1: one could sniff it and now and last year, I mean, 893 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,919 Speaker 1: but he didn't. It wasn't that he had a gear 894 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,360 Speaker 1: no one else had. Last year he won kind of 895 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 1: the way Jack one and eighty six. You know, people 896 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: we get nostalgic and think about what Jack did and 897 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: it was tremendous, but we don't always acknowledge the role. 898 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 1: That's Sevy washing line on fifteen and Greg making a 899 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: number of mistakes down the line helped give him that 900 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 1: you know, he didn't he was earned, but there was help. Well, 901 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 1: the same thing happened with Tiger last year. Just his 902 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 1: presence alone was enough to kind of jam up everybody 903 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 1: else's radar. And so Tiger can't throw one hundred and five, 904 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,919 Speaker 1: but he can beat you from one ninety. And that's 905 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 1: I love the analogy because it makes sense. And especially 906 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: here Dan, as you as you know, you're familiar with 907 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 1: this place. There's a lot of understanding what you need 908 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:39,359 Speaker 1: to do. And he better than anyone else other than 909 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 1: maybe Phil. He understands what's what was being asked of him, 910 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: and he had the answers on Thursday. He was really 911 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 1: good he didn't do anything bad. And you know, right 912 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:52,240 Speaker 1: there in the mix Scott Van Pelt, host of Sports 913 00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 1: Center with SPP joining us from Augusta. He's got hosting 914 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: duties down there. Without patrons there, that's a big advantage 915 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 1: for some and like Tiger, like they want to they 916 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 1: want to be part of this story there or is 917 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,480 Speaker 1: it you know, is that a big advantage when you're 918 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 1: playing with Tiger and that crowd. Whatever Tiger does, it 919 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,239 Speaker 1: feels like those roars and you you know this. You 920 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: could hear a roar and go, oh, okay, that's not 921 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,839 Speaker 1: a Tiger. Oh you hear a roaring, go oh oh, 922 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: that's for Tiger. You know. It's just that cacophony of 923 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 1: sound that stands out. And I don't know what that 924 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,959 Speaker 1: would do or you know, has done to these guys, 925 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 1: these fellow competitors there at Augusta when they're with Tiger, 926 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 1: you're you're one hundred percent right about that. You know 927 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,400 Speaker 1: who it is, you know where it is, and you 928 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: know what it was immediately, Like you hear a certain 929 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,800 Speaker 1: roar and you're like, oh, bleep, that I was Tiger. 930 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 1: He's on thirteen. He might he made eagle and in 931 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 1: a weird way. You kind of you're not getting intel, right, 932 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: You're not getting the feedback that you would otherwise get 933 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 1: from the golf course. Um. I just I know that 934 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 1: to a man, those the people who have played here, 935 00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: um a number of years, they all miss it because 936 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 1: they all felt like they had an energy that was 937 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,400 Speaker 1: provided to them that would that they fed off of. 938 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 1: And now it's it's like you've heard guys in the 939 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 1: NFL and other sports say you got to bring your 940 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 1: own energy, you got to bring your own juice. So 941 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: the guys I think it would really favor. Are any 942 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,320 Speaker 1: of these young guys a wolf for more Akawa? Anyone 943 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 1: who's never played here, they've got nothing to compare it too. 944 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:23,360 Speaker 1: And so I'll just the number of the players that 945 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 1: I asked initially, I'm like, what do you think? And 946 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 1: they're all like, God, it's so weird. It's so eerie 947 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 1: being out here in a place that's typically filled with 948 00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: tens of thousands of people and now it's just crickets. 949 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 1: So I think the energy, I think it's an advantage 950 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,359 Speaker 1: to anybody that doesn't know what it otherwise feels like, Yeah, 951 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 1: it feels like that we get to be a voyeur 952 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,359 Speaker 1: with a practice round. I mean, that's that's really just 953 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,799 Speaker 1: a feeling. I get A serious question, is you've come 954 00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 1: to expect with this program, Paulie, do you want to 955 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:52,279 Speaker 1: offer this up to a Van Scott. We're watching the 956 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: coverage all day yesterday. Great job as always, but we're 957 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 1: noticing a lot more earth tones, browns, greens, grays, less 958 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: white pants. Is that because of the time of year. 959 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I thought yesterday was a was 960 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 1: a triple bogeye day from the golf manufacturing community. I thought, like, 961 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 1: just it was horrible. I mean, what are we doing? 962 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. There were the shirts and slack combos 963 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:21,400 Speaker 1: yesterday was like seventy six ish, right, I mean how many? 964 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and I'm not one of those guys. It's like, oh, 965 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 1: I got to run out to the sporting goods store 966 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 1: and get the gear. I mean, obviously they're going to 967 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 1: send it to me for free, because that's you know, 968 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: because I know Dan. But I'm looking at him yesterday 969 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 1: and going, who would wear any of this? What are 970 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,359 Speaker 1: we doing? I thought it was. I mean, I am 971 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:39,279 Speaker 1: I on an island here. You can't wear tope in 972 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:43,919 Speaker 1: November at Augusta tope is not a golf color, right, 973 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 1: I agree. I'm with you. I was. I mean, even 974 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: though they're you don't need a zaleas to wear like 975 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,439 Speaker 1: a pink or a purple or something like. Let's jazz 976 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 1: it up, guys. It was drab. But you know what 977 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 1: I mean.

Biard 980 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 1: looked like Christmas Day at Augusta rid on the leaderboard 981 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 1: and green all around at Budge vannerall do you have 982 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 1: to be careful in how you describe things at Augusta 983 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: as opposed to any other golf tournament that you're involved in. 984 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm not everyone sort of. I think you govern yourself 985 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: in the same way you do you ever, like we 986 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: didn't grow well. I was not some rich kid growing up. 987 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 1: I had friends that were wealthy, and when you went 988 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 1: to their house, you just made sure not to do 989 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 1: something stupid. That's all. You just you govern yourself the 990 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 1: way you would when you go to a nice restaurant 991 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,320 Speaker 1: or somewhere that's nice. And like when we when we 992 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,399 Speaker 1: would cover the open on the ESPN. Well, we called 993 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 1: it the Open Championship because they did, and we would 994 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 1: call the group's games because that's what they call them. Well, 995 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 1: we call them patrons here in the first and second 996 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: nine because that's the language they use here. And I 997 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:58,520 Speaker 1: get that people, you know, they want to roll their 998 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 1: eyes and say, oh, you know you're you know you're 999 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 1: following these this sense of you know, you can't step 1000 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,320 Speaker 1: out a line. No. I just I think you behave 1001 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:07,920 Speaker 1: the way you do when you go a nice place. 1002 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: You know, you don't want to be the guy that 1003 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,839 Speaker 1: puts his feet on the couch. I remember saying uh 1004 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 1: one time, either a sand trap or a bunker, and 1005 00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 1: I was corrected by somebody who sent me a letter. 1006 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 1: And you know or whatever a chip or something, picture chip, 1007 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 1: a picture chip. Listen, like golf guy or gal golf person. 1008 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 1: They just get insufferable with that and it's not necessary, 1009 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 1: you know, if you if you get the well, don't 1010 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:39,799 Speaker 1: say he hit a birdie. Like if you say that, 1011 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: that sort of nails on a chalkboard. But I don't 1012 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 1: think that's a mistake either either of us would make. 1013 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 1: But I mean again, it's just it's a special place 1014 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: in it, and I think it makes everybody feel a 1015 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: little different and probably be on their best behavior. All right, No, 1016 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 1: you gotta go, you're busy, You're important there. Thanks for 1017 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,280 Speaker 1: joining us.

Doing the best again is their friends and 1037 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: family just count on the Dan Patrick callender if I 1038 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:03,719 Speaker 1: want to order one of those or not. I don't 1039 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 1: think you want it. I don't think you want to 1040 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 1: be involved in this. Like you're you're above this, You're 1041 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 1: better than this. I do have a public apology. For years, 1042 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 1: I thought Rhees Davis went to Arkansas. I thought you 1043 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 1: went to Arkansas. And I don't know why I thought 1044 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:21,320 Speaker 1: that all those years at ESPN, I thought you always 1045 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,399 Speaker 1: talked about Arkansas for some reason. Let's see, I keep 1046 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 1: it on the low a little bit. That's the best 1047 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: compliment I can get is when people I don't know 1048 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 1: that I went to Alabama instead, but I get you 1049 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 1: know what, I get a lot Dan is from Alabama. 1050 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 1: People you don't represent anywhere. Well, Herbs Street got that 1051 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 1: with Ohio State, like you don't say enough nice things 1052 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 1: about Ohio State exactly, You're never gonna satisfy. All right, 1053 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,960 Speaker 1: tell me how the idea came to Fruition that College 1054 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 1: Game Day was going to go to Augusta. Well, the 1055 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,400 Speaker 1: tournament was moved in November, and we always look for 1056 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:57,640 Speaker 1: opportunities to take the show two places where we haven't been, 1057 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: and the people at Augusta National were very receptive to 1058 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: the idea, and it got floated out really really in 1059 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: the summer once we found out that we were going 1060 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 1: to be able to have a show and that there 1061 00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:12,439 Speaker 1: was going to be a college football season and league 1062 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 1: fitting and a few others asked us, what do you 1063 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:16,720 Speaker 1: think about this idea? And we all love the idea, 1064 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:22,520 Speaker 1: And I think there's an intersection between golf and college football. 1065 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 1: There are a lot of you know, a lot of 1066 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 1: college coaches that just can't wait to get the opportunity 1067 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:31,960 Speaker 1: to play the course. In fact, the one time that 1068 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 1: I was fortunate enough to be a guest of Blue Holtz, 1069 00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: it seemed like it was a whole college football coaches 1070 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,360 Speaker 1: convention there that weekend. So I think there's a normal 1071 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,400 Speaker 1: and a crossover that sort of resonates for people, and 1072 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 1: it's an opportunity to do something that probably won't won't 1073 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,040 Speaker 1: ever happen again. To be able to do a football 1074 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: show from the Masters in November. Tricky though, with players 1075 00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,879 Speaker 1: playing in the event. Will you have players who will 1076 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 1: join you on set. We're attempting that right now, or 1077 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: if not on set because of some COVID nineteen protocol 1078 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 1: sanitized things like that, at least to have interviews with him. 1079 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,440 Speaker 1: And we have, as you mentioned, Tom Ernudi Gimojahowski, both 1080 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: on the course, who would be able to do some 1081 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,440 Speaker 1: of those for us. So we're we are We're making 1082 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,480 Speaker 1: as many connections as we possibly can, and we're hopeful 1083 00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: that we'll have several guys over the course of the 1084 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 1: three hours Saturday morning join us for the show. I 1085 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 1: talked to Van Pelt about twenty minutes ago. There's certain 1086 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: players who feed off that atmosphere, and I'm imagining it's 1087 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: the same thing with you in college game day. The 1088 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:41,919 Speaker 1: atmosphere and not having you don't have patrons that show 1089 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 1: up for college game day, but the crowd that shows 1090 00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 1: up there. How much of that you know? Do you 1091 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 1: realize is integral with having a great show. It's something 1092 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 1: that we've had to get used to all season, dam 1093 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 1: because we haven't had anybody there this year. And I 1094 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 1: think the one thing you miss is the instantaneous feedback 1095 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 1: from when you say something that the crowd either likes 1096 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: or doesn't like that has been missing. I don't feel 1097 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: as if the discussions have been any less energetic or 1098 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 1: anything once we dive into football, but going up to 1099 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 1: the set leading up to the show, that type of feedback, 1100 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 1: the booze, you know, when you play something nice about 1101 00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: the team you're playing, all that's missing. So there is 1102 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,360 Speaker 1: a little bit of that energy that's gone. So we've 1103 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: become accustomed to it over the course of the season 1104 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:38,640 Speaker 1: not having anybody there watching the show, so that part 1105 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 1: won't be different. The one question I did ask was 1106 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,240 Speaker 1: immediately was are we going to have to watch our 1107 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 1: volume level when we're speaking on Saturday morning and our 1108 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 1: set position is on the Part three course, And it's 1109 00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: my understanding that we're in the clear. We're not really 1110 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: yellers and screamers anyway, but that we're going to have 1111 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 1: enough physical distance between us and where where the golf 1112 00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: is going on that will be okay. Do you have 1113 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: a golf voice I can I can work on And 1114 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 1: here's Dan Patrick on seventeen. I was wondering if coach 1115 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 1: Corso picks who's gonna win the Masters instead of who's 1116 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 1: gonna you know, his pick for whatever game you guys 1117 00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 1: have that that will that will happen. Now, whether there 1118 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 1: is a a headgear representing that player, I don't know 1119 00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 1: that has happened before. In the NFL draft, you picked 1120 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: in the number one overall pick and has had head 1121 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,320 Speaker 1: thready lightnesses of those players, so that is possible. I 1122 00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 1: do not know if that will be a surprise on 1123 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:42,320 Speaker 1: Saturday morning. It feels like college football is holding its breath, 1124 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 1: you know, with we just have to get through this. 1125 00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 1: I think a lot of this is based off of 1126 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 1: Halloween and you know, students get together and you got 1127 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 1: all these positives. The SEC kind of wiped out this weekend. 1128 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 1: But as we move forward, how do you see this 1129 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 1: play out race it? I think we will get to 1130 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 1: the finish line, Dan, and I'm glad to see that. 1131 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 1: Bob Bowlsby said that there is some flexibility at least 1132 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 1: being considered. I know that they do not want to 1133 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 1: push back the new year six games in the college 1134 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: football playoffs, semifinals and the championship, nor should they. That 1135 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 1: should be a last resort because you want to try 1136 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 1: to get to the finish line as efficiently as possible. 1137 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 1: But I'm glad that they're not being so bound by 1138 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 1: dates that they aren't willing to adjust because nobody's been 1139 01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 1: through these circumstances. It looked as if things were getting 1140 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 1: a little better, and then you've had the uptick in 1141 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,680 Speaker 1: the cases, and as as big a problem for the 1142 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 1: teams as the actual positive cases themselves, it's been the 1143 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 1: contact tracing. You've had a couple of schools that couldn't 1144 01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:45,840 Speaker 1: play this week, and it wasn't because they had a 1145 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 1: number of guys who are positive. It's because they had 1146 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 1: too many guys in a certain position group who have 1147 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 1: been in contact with someone who tested positive. So that 1148 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 1: aspect of it creates some challenges, and it's been implemented 1149 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:00,280 Speaker 1: to try to keep as many of the players safe 1150 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 1: as possible, but it has created some issues in terms 1151 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 1: of having teams being able to play by being able 1152 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 1: to field enough alignement or whatever it might be. But 1153 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: could you see them pushing back the date for the 1154 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:16,360 Speaker 1: college Playoffs selection committee? Therefore, it might allow Ohio State 1155 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:19,720 Speaker 1: or some of these other schools Pack twelve to be 1156 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: able to play a couple of more games, to be 1157 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 1: fair to them, since there's no eighteam playoff here. I 1158 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 1: don't know that they would push back the initial rankings 1159 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 1: because they've already done so it's already pretty late, and 1160 01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 1: I think you'll have a fairly decent sample size, assuming 1161 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:38,440 Speaker 1: that Ohio State can resume action for them, particularly maybe 1162 01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 1: not quite as much for the Pac twelve schools. I 1163 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: would think that you'd almost have to get to a 1164 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 1: situation where it stopped for them to push it back further. Now, 1165 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,440 Speaker 1: they might move the games, they might push back in 1166 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:55,000 Speaker 1: the date of the final selection if it were necessary 1167 01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 1: to do so. They would probably keep everything an alignment 1168 01:01:58,240 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 1: if you follow what I mean. If you had to 1169 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 1: push some finals back, it would then stand to reason 1170 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 1: that you probably were also pushing back the final games 1171 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 1: and therefore the final selections. I think the fervent hope 1172 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:09,920 Speaker 1: is that they don't have to do any of this, 1173 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,200 Speaker 1: but that they are. They're showing a willingness to at 1174 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 1: least evaluate if it's necessary. He's Rhees Davis or the 1175 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 1: mothership ESPN play by Play, but more importantly ESPN College 1176 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:22,760 Speaker 1: Game Day host. Did they already come out with the 1177 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 1: master's version of ESPN College Game Day? Is that what 1178 01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 1: you have on? It's this was I do have something similar. 1179 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 1: It's from a very good friend of mine from Saint 1180 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 1: Andrew's Products just north of South Bend, so he came 1181 01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 1: up with a little something. I think he has an 1182 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:42,600 Speaker 1: arrangement with the good people with Augusta National and others 1183 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 1: that provided a pollo for this weekend. So that's contraband, 1184 01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 1: is what you're saying. I don't know the answer to that. Actually, 1185 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: I actually don't know the answer to that. I certainly hope. Okay, 1186 01:02:54,400 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: will you have everybody on set dress accordingly as if 1187 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 1: they were patrons there? Will you have some plaid? We 1188 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 1: have some nice colors there. I tried. I tried to 1189 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:13,240 Speaker 1: choose conservatively and wisely and appropriate for the moment. Now, 1190 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 1: I can't guarantee you what Ronaldi's going to do, and 1191 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 1: herb Street surprisingly has been known to go with a 1192 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:22,560 Speaker 1: little volume on the jacket, so I wouldn't be surprised 1193 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,600 Speaker 1: to see a little something out of him. Do you 1194 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:29,640 Speaker 1: guys get to play? No? Okay? Yea, even the part 1195 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 1: three that I don't know now. I don't know if 1196 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:34,520 Speaker 1: they'll let us take a couple of swings on the 1197 01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 1: part three, but I don't think anyone's played since we've 1198 01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:38,720 Speaker 1: been here. By the way, how many times do you 1199 01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:40,960 Speaker 1: think over the years here, six years, have you cried 1200 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 1: after a tom or an old epiece? Oh, I'm gonna 1201 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:50,680 Speaker 1: say over underseat it three and a half probably something 1202 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 1: like that. But you got dan. I'm a softy now. 1203 01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:56,920 Speaker 1: I can cry at a sentimental moment between a dad 1204 01:03:56,960 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 1: and a daughter at a sitcom. So I'm an easy 1205 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 1: target for that. So I get touched pretty easily. Yeah, 1206 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 1: when Ronaldi rolls it out and people don't know, but 1207 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 1: Ronaldi brings his own piano, he plays his own piano, 1208 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 1: he provides his own theme music, and whenever he starts 1209 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 1: to dial it up and that voice gets a little whispery, 1210 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:23,320 Speaker 1: and somebody's lost a limb somewhere. That's all I remember. 1211 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 1: It's patrons. Okay, all right, you got do? You have 1212 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:31,920 Speaker 1: the terminology done? You're okay with the jargon? Linstre I 1213 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 1: do I've gotten I knowing see, I've got an entire 1214 01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:36,680 Speaker 1: list that you can't have the phones there, as you know. 1215 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:40,440 Speaker 1: But I have studied to make sure and I was. 1216 01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 1: I was fairly good on it to begin with. But 1217 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,520 Speaker 1: I do want to be I want to be a 1218 01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 1: good guest.
