1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:01,960
Speaker 1: The volume.

2
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: What is going on everybody? How are we doing? John

3
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:24,639
Speaker 2: Middlecoff and a little go low podcast with a little

4
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley talk at the end. So we're gonna talk

5
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 2: a little golf in regards to We've got the Arnold

6
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 2: Palmer Bayhill this weekend, all elevated event, all the stars there.

7
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 2: A couple of weeks we got the players. We had

8
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 2: Fred Couples go on local radio say Koepka is ready

9
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 2: to return. We had my guy Jake Knapp, who I

10
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 2: think moved to Scottsdale within the last year. I see

11
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: him sometimes at TPC. Looked like he was gonna win

12
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 2: a second tournament of the year and then had a disaster,

13
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: And I just wanted to talk disasters as a whole

14
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: because they are riven to watch. We also will do

15
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 2: a We do it all the time every single week

16
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 2: for this podcast at golo pod. Is the Instagram at

19
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 2: do a football one is just my normal Instagram. I

20
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: like to separate it for golf. It's just easier to

21
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: find him at golopod. Is the way to do it.

22
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: So make sure you subscribe to the podcast on Collins Feed.

23
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 2: Everything's up on YouTube. I did a little Saquon reaction

24
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: for YouTube, but I put the audio here at the

25
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 2: end of this podcast because he just got a big

26
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: extension and I wanted to talk about it. So little

27
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: golf talk, a little golf mail bag, and a little

28
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, who just became an even richer man. So

29
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 2: but other than that, I did want to start with.

30
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: This does start to feel like right around the players

31
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 2: is when you get Master commercials. And I'm a sucker

32
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: for the West Coast Swing. I mean those that stretch

33
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: pebble waste. I know RIV didn't happen this year because

34
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 2: of the fires, and I would include Tori as well,

35
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 2: has a soft spot for me. Even Hawaii, there's nothing

36
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: like the I mean, it used to be the Tournament

37
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 2: of Champions. Now they allow like I don't know, just

38
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 2: random people in but those views in Honolulu or in Kapalua,

39
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: the water in the background. I've never played, and my

40
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: brothers played it a couple times. It's just it really

41
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: kind of like, God, I want to be in Hawaii,

42
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 2: And I would say right around now, it feels like, okay,

43
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: the golf starting to get real, and this week the

44
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 2: Arnold Palmer with the elevated event. You know, Xander's back, obviously, Scottie, Rory, Ludwig,

45
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 2: jt all the big dogs are there, and then in

46
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks we have the players and then

47
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: it feels like major seasons on. And I think sometimes

48
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: with these golf tournaments. Again, if you're listening to this,

49
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: you're probably a pretty big but listen, we get a

50
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: lot of people that play golf that don't watch golf,

51
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: that consume this content. And that was such a cheesy thing.

52
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 2: Consume this content. I'm saying, listen to me talk about golf.

53
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: But ultimately, like the last couple of weeks the Mexico opened,

54
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: the cognizant aren't really doing it for most. And I

55
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: completely understand there's a star studded sport in the sense

56
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: of you need stars to get people to pay attention. Tennis,

57
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 2: any individual sport is that way. You can't roll out

58
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: randoms and expect people to care. And I think anytime

59
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 2: that these guys all play together. We saw a couple

60
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: of weeks ago with Toy we saw at pebble with

61
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: Rory that the bigger names in the mix, people will

62
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: watch and you'll get three four million people watching on

63
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: a Sunday, which in this climate is really good. I

64
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: mean NBA games without Lebron James or Steph Curry are

65
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: not sniffing four million people. And I think anything you

66
00:03:58,040 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: can hope is when these guys are together. And I

67
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: think the whole hard part about golf is like in

68
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: a perfect world, you would start to see, you know,

69
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: Rory's already won, Scotty's coming back off the injury, Ludviig's

70
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: already won a deck, he's already won. So the top

71
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: guys heading into the majors with Bryson Koepka and kind

72
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 2: of that crew waiting hopefully it's and hopefully John Romby

73
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: gets a shit together. It's like a perfect emergence of

74
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: all the stars playing well. And then all of a

75
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: sudden you look at the Master's leader board and four

76
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: of those eight names are in the mix on Saturday

77
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 2: and Sunday. That's all you could ask for. And I

78
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: think right now is when you start to see, you know,

79
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 2: Rory's look really good this season. Obviously Ludwig if he

80
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 2: hadn't gotten sick, might have multiple victories. You know, Scotty

81
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: is going to be just fine. I think the wild

82
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 2: card is Xander coming off the injury. We'll have to

83
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 2: give him a little time, but if he feels good,

84
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: like there's a chance this major season. You know Bryson,

85
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: how good he looked last year in the majors. It's exciting.

86
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: And listen this tournament. I think my full from a

87
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: gambling standpoint, I'm gonna hammer Ludvig every single week as

88
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 2: a top ten. The moment I won what bet did

89
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 2: I win Tony Fenow to like top ten? I think

90
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 2: at Tory and he kind of backdoored it. Maybe no,

91
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 2: it's top five and I turned one thousand into fifteen hundred.

92
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: I immediately put one thousand dollars on Ludwig to win

93
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: the Players, and then I put another five hundred on

94
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 2: him to win the Masters. But I will also hammer him.

95
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 2: That was kind of spur of the moment. I will

96
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 2: hammer him every single week to top ten because right

97
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 2: now he's played in four events and he's top ten

98
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: and two of them and one of them he was

99
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 2: leading after Thursday, and then he got deathly ill and

100
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 2: we all know people this flu season. I mean the

101
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 2: flu came out of retirement a couple of years ago

102
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: and came back with a fucking vengeance. That thing just

103
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: went away like Michael Jordan started playing baseball and then

104
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: it came back, like, holy shit, it hit me twice.

105
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 2: So I just played golf with my buddy Pong on Saturday.

106
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: He said he was in shambles for like two weeks.

107
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: He said, the worst part is I had to give

108
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: presentations for work, and he's like, this was I owned

109
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 2: the company, so I couldn't exactly not show up. I'm like, yeah, bro,

110
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 2: I had it the chills. You just feel like you

111
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 2: couldn't move. So there's a chance. I don't know if

112
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 2: Ludwig would have won at Toy, but I think it's

113
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 2: fair to say that he would have had three top

114
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 2: tens in four events. So to me, auto hammer, Ludvig

115
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: drives it straight, hits his irons peer. Now, historically at

116
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: this course, they grow out the rough around the greens.

117
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 2: You would say, short game can be a little bit

118
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 2: of a bug boo for the guy, but I would

119
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: be stunned if he's not in the mix. And I

120
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: think the same could be said for Rory, for Scotty,

121
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 2: I also like Adecki, who's just been playing really well.

122
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: So Mike Parlay this week, and the guys I'm hammering

123
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: are led big to top ten, a decy to top ten.

124
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 2: I do think Shane Lowry won. He's been playing really

125
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 2: good golf. Last year, he I think was tied for

126
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 2: third in this event. He is a floor guy, lived

127
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 2: there for a long time, so he's very comfortable in

128
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 2: the environment. Plus is a big year for him, right

129
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: there's a Ryder Cup year. I think he's trying to

130
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: cement his status of like is he on the fringe

131
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 2: to like, I'm a Locke Ryder Cup guy moving forward

132
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 2: until my game falls off a cliff, like just write

133
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: me in in sharpie. And I've been hammering him for

134
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 2: top twenties every week. He played well pretty well last week.

135
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 2: I just think you look at listen. The scary part

136
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 2: about the Ryder Cup is the Euros look good. I mean,

137
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: obviously Rory, I think his wedge game over the over

138
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 2: the winner clearly puts some emphasis in that. And if

139
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 2: his wedge game improves by I don't know, five to

140
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 2: ten percent, right, because there were moments the last couple

141
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 2: of years. I thought it was pretty horrendous for an

142
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: all time great player. And if it becomes like I

143
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: don't want to say a strength, but something that is

144
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: not a liability like he could easily have, I would

145
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: say a Scottie Rohm type all of a sudden rory

146
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: won three or four times and a major or two,

147
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: and these are the type tournaments where I would expect

148
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 2: him to be in the mix. Same thing with Adeki.

149
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 2: So I'm going Ludwig Lowry to top twenty and Ludwig

150
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: and Hideki to top ten. I don't hate if you

151
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: go with Hideki to top twenty, but I think Ludwig

152
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: moving forward is a auto top ten hammer if you

153
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 2: can get him at plus one fifty or plus one

154
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 2: seventy five or plus one sixty. Like I just like

155
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 2: my chances on a weekly basis. Again, he is a

156
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 2: the flu coming around to having three top tens in

157
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 2: four events, the other being a top five and a win.

158
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 2: So I just I think you gotta like your chances

159
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 2: with the young stallion Freddy Couples, who I'm just a

160
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 2: sucker for these old school guys going on local radio,

161
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 2: keeping you know, keeping that medium alive and Freddy just

162
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 2: calling in probably talking some sports bs about the Seattle

163
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 2: Seahawks offseason. I saw Mike McDonald was asked if he

164
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 2: could coach one player in league history, who would be?

165
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 2: I think he said like Lawrence Taylor. Of course he's

166
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 2: a defensive guy, but spiritual high in Seattle, well run operation,

167
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 2: good GM and Freddy Couples is fired up. Freddy Couples

168
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 2: diehard sports guy and a loyal, loyal PGA Tour guy.

169
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: And he has for a guy that's not like playing

170
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 2: that regularly. I know he's played some Champions Tour, but

171
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 2: he has been extremely outspoken talking shit about the live

172
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:38,599
Speaker 2: guys from the jump. Now he's biased. His wealth, his status,

173
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 2: where he stands in life is all created by the

174
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 2: PGA Tour, and you could say that was the same

175
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: for every guy that went to Live. But he made

176
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 2: a comment this week on the radio show that Keopka

177
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: is one of his boys. It's one of his good buddies.

178
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 2: Obviously his BFF is Tiger, but he said that Koepka

179
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 2: wants to come back to the PGA Tour. And it's

180
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 2: pretty clear that a lot of these guys Keepka Bryson.

181
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 2: I would say John Rahm, who's also been outspoken about

182
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: like he misses these events because you're just not getting

183
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: the same juice. I can't imagine. Like I totally understand

184
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 2: and I supported it. Is it was so easy for

185
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 2: everyone to get on the moral high horse. No I'm

186
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 2: the elite players and say, wait, why are you leaving?

187
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: It's like, well, they just put one hundred and forty

188
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 2: five million dollars guaranteed in front of my face, and

189
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: then they say, if I play well in these events,

190
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 2: I can win like five million dollars, Like DJ won

191
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 2: fifty million dollars. I think the first couple years on Lift.

192
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 2: That doesn't even count the couple hundred million dollars they

193
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 2: paid him to leave. They gave Phil like two hundred,

194
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty million dollars and can't he's not

195
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: even good anymore. So when they aff for John Ram

196
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 2: two to three hundred million dollars, like yeah, it's easy

197
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 2: for you to say no, just stay on the PGA tour,

198
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 2: keep playing the Arnold Palmer. It's like they just offered

199
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 2: me two hundred and seventy five million dollars and this

200
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 2: cool ass jacket. So I understand. But then after you

201
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: play there for a couple of years, you're like, I

202
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: kind of just miss being under the bright lights. I

203
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 2: miss being in the events that really matter, and beside

204
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 2: the majors there are five or six events, and that's

205
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 2: what I'm fascinated to see, Like the integration of these

206
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 2: guys coming back, which feels inevitable. Are they gonna play

207
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 2: a normal schedule because if I was Kopka or I

208
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 2: was Bryson, Let's use Bryson as an example, because I

209
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 2: think Keoepka won. He never took regular events beside a

210
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: couple that seriously, he was very successful at waste management

211
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 2: makes sense. Bright light event, you know the riv the

212
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 2: tory pines maybe like the players, but you think, like

213
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: you're not getting him to play random, non elevated events.

214
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: I do think what's gonna be fascinating for Bryson is

215
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: like he's built a pretty important thing on the internet

216
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 2: and I can't imagine Bryson wanting to pivot off the YouTube.

217
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 2: And one thing the tour has always struggled with is

218
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 2: allowing these guys, and in fairness, they get so much

219
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 2: money from these TV partners that they don't want you

220
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 2: to rip the content like the CBS gets to own it.

221
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 2: It's why they pay all this money, and that's been

222
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 2: the pushback guys like Bryson that Live allows them to

223
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 2: use any content they want. So I think they're gonna

224
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: have to find and strike some happy medium, because, let's

225
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 2: face it, they really need the three guys back, John

226
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 2: rom Bryson, d Chambeau and Brooks Koepka, and then you know,

227
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 2: for us golf nerds, the cam Smith's, the Wokie Nemans

228
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 2: definitely add to it. But I think most people just

229
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 2: feel like, whenever this does come back, that this is

230
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 2: going to be normal again. I have a hard time

231
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 2: with that because if I just paid a couple hundred

232
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 2: million dollars, I would miss the juice, and I would

233
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 2: want some of the juice in sense of like I'd

234
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 2: want to play a waste, I'd want to play at

235
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 2: the Players, but some of these other events, like I

236
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: didn't like doing that before I was super rich, I

237
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 2: don't plan on doing that now. And that's where I

238
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: think the disconnect has to be with some of these

239
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 2: players just just act like you're gonna do what we

240
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 2: tell you to do. It's hard to tell someone to

241
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 2: do something when they have more money than you and

242
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 2: they no longer really need you. Like especially Bryson, he

243
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 2: just won a major. He's in them for the next

244
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 2: five years. Brooks last year won the PGA or two

245
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 2: years ago, like he's in majors for five years. Like

246
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 2: the DJ hasn't cared for five years, doesn't even matter

247
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 2: to him. But like those two guys, cam Smith won

248
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: the British Open a couple of years ago, Like, these

249
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 2: guys don't have to worry about getting into the major.

250
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 2: So bulling them around I think is going to be difficult.

251
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 2: And one thing that's clear is like, and I saw

252
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 2: Alan Shipnak talking about this on Rapaport's YouTube show. That's

253
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: not Ian, that's Daniel, is these contracts are coming to

254
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 2: an end, right that these weren't eight year deals. This

255
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 2: wasn't Patrick mahomes Here's ten years, four and fifty million dollars.

256
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 2: It was like three or four years for a couple

257
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars. And then they end, Well, it's like,

258
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 2: are you gonna pay me another three hundred million dollars?

259
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 2: Are we gonna keep this going when twelve thousand people

260
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 2: are watching. That's what it does feel like. Probably not

261
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 2: now you can also never say never when you're dealing

262
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 2: with people with trillions of dollars with reserves that are

263
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 2: more than most major nations all around the world. So

264
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 2: I don't feel comfortable saying it speaking in absolutes about

265
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 2: this situation, but it does feel like we're headed towards

266
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 2: somewhat of a resolution in the new year. I would

267
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 2: say year or two. I'm not confident it's gonna be

268
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six. But I also am not confident that, like,

269
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 2: even when it's like, okay, they're quote unquote back together,

270
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 2: that it feels like what everyone thinks it's gonna look like, Oh,

271
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 2: Bryce is just playing a schedule of fifteen events. I

272
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: don't know, because if I was him, it's like, now,

273
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna play some of the cool events, play the majors,

274
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna do my YouTube stuff. Why because that's

275
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: making me a star. The majors make me a star.

276
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 2: Maybe the players maybe waste and Jack's tournament and YouTube.

277
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 2: So I don't think he's gonna pivot off that. I

278
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 2: don't think brooks Kopka is gonna be like, oh, I'll

279
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 2: see you guys at the John Deeer the other thing

280
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 2: is one thing that is unique to golf is like

281
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 2: even in tennis, like you can start playing bad, hitting

282
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 2: the net and missing serves, but there is nothing like

283
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 2: a golf meltdown because it happens on an individual hole

284
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 2: when a guy in the lead or in the mix

285
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 2: just has a disaster. And that's what happened to Jake

286
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 2: Nap on Sunday. And while it has to be just listen,

287
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: we all can relate if you play golf that all

288
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 2: of a sudden you're just kind of cruising on, playing

289
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: pretty good, and then you get a triple bogie, or

290
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 2: you hit two balls in the water, or you just

291
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 2: hit one out of bounds, and then you three putt

292
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: and you're like, did I just make an eight on

293
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 2: a part five? It happens to all of us. The

294
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 2: difference is we're not playing on the PGA Tour and

295
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 2: we're not tied for the lead on whole eleven after

296
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 2: shooting a fifty nine on Thursday, and I was watching

297
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 2: on my couch when Jake Nap hits it into the

298
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 2: water and you're like, okay, he's gonna drop try to

299
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 2: make a bogie here. Then he tries to hit it

300
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 2: out of the water because his balls kind of submerged

301
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: and does not get the ball out and it rolls

302
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 2: back in. Then he hits it again, and you just

303
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: for as awesome as great shots are, I think the

304
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 2: most riveting thing that can happen on television and professional

305
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 2: golf is that I think it's just I can't believe

306
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 2: this is going on. And I would say the Cognizant

307
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 2: and Jake Nap on the scale of one to ten,

308
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 2: importance in the grand scheme of things is pretty low.

309
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 2: But when moments like that happen, Let's face it. I

310
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 2: had a decent amount of money last year on Max

311
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: Homa to win the Masters. I live bet him. I

312
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 2: think I put one thousand dollars on him at like

313
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 2: fifteen to one on either Thursday or Friday, and we're

314
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 2: cruising on Sunday. I'm like, I think, I think this

315
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 2: is gonna happen. It's gonna be the biggest win or

316
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 2: one of them. I guess I hadn't hit my bryceon

317
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 2: d Chambeau Parlay that I would the US Open, which

318
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 2: is the biggest gambling win I've ever had. But it

319
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 2: felt like I'm gonna do this, and then all of

320
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 2: a sudden hold twelve and he hits it into the bush,

321
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 2: and I immediately look, I have a cash out option

322
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 2: that I think I got like nine hundred and forty

323
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 2: dollars back, so I basically lost like sixty bucks night

324
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 2: immediately cash out. And then obviously he just he implotes.

325
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 2: I mean, anyone would have he's in a bush, what's

326
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 2: he gonna do? And that feeling when you're watching it.

327
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 2: I think some of the biggest moments in the history

328
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 2: of golf are some of the big putts made or

329
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 2: the great shots made. But I actually think we think

330
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 2: about Jordan Speeth on twelve melting down, right, John Vandervelt

331
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 2: melting down, Greg Norman melting down, And sometimes a meltdown

332
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 2: can just be an awful shot, slash, an awful break

333
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 2: And sometimes and I try to think about this, and

334
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: I do a terrible job of like should I just

335
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: hit out? Should I should I just chip out? Live

336
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,199
Speaker 2: to fight another day. That's not fun. That is not

337
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 2: an enjoyable way to play golf. And even if you're

338
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 2: gambling with buddies and you can lose fifty bucks or whatever,

339
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 2: I like being aggressive on the golf course. It's not

340
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: fun to just chip out unless you absolutely have to.

341
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 2: So I understand when guys, the first inclination and feeling

342
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 2: inside is gonna be like I can pull this shit

343
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,360
Speaker 2: off now. One thing I saw Golf Channel, the dude

344
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 2: in studio was kind of critical of nap. When you're

345
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,479
Speaker 2: in like the submerged, not in the lake, but in

346
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 2: that kind of mud area where you can step. You

347
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 2: had to take a shoe off, you got to swing

348
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 2: out of your ass and just get the ball on

349
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 2: dry land, whether it's in the green or even deep

350
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 2: in the sand. And he kind of pussy footed it.

351
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 2: He didn't swing that hard and the ball barely went anywhere.

352
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, some dude no one's ever

353
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 2: heard of with a bucket hat who was at Pepperdine

354
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, starts draining Birdie's nap falls

355
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 2: apart and he wins it pretty easily. But I do

356
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 2: believe as a sports fan watching an individual in the

357
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: lead on Sunday fuck Up is elite sports television. I

358
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 2: mean it's just like, this is crazy. Now. You never

359
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 2: want to have money on that individual because the home

360
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 2: of thing my heart dropped when he hit it into

361
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 2: the bush, which in the air. It looked like a

362
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 2: good shot and even Max was surprised. But it happens.

363
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 2: And then I think, let big in more Cowa right

364
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 2: behind him hit the ball in the water. H Maybe

365
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 2: more Cowa was playing with Max hit the ball in

366
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,359

Speaker 2: Okay, let's let's bang out a couple mail bag questions

395
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 2: here at golopod is the Instagram fire in those dms.

396
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 2: This was an old question that I saved that I

397
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 2: did want to answer because I think heading into the

398
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 2: to the Major season, it's going to be pretty interesting.

399
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 2: Just a quick thought after the US Open with Bryson

400
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 2: winning the major season, Bryson has done better than Scotty.

401
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 2: Scotty won the Masters Bryson was tied for six the

402
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 2: PGA Championship, Scotty was eighth. Granted he went to jail.

403
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 2: Bryson was second. The US Open, he was tied for

404
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: forty one. Bryson was first. So Bryson is a first,

405
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 2: a second, and a sixth. Scotty had a fortieth, an

406
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 2: eighth and a first. Is it a hot take to

407
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 2: say that Bryson is his rival and could challenge him

408
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 2: as the world number one if Bryson was on tour.

409
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: I do think if Bryson was on tour right now,

410
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 2: the way he has played in the majors the last

411
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 2: couple of years and specifically last season, I do think

412
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 2: we would be talking about him no differently than Scotty

413
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 2: Rory Xander on a weekly basis, and I do think

414
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: going into majors now, he is considered on that level.

415
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 2: The way that he played in the PGA, the way

416
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 2: that he played in the US Open, and honestly, he

417
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 2: took a lot of shit because a couple of years

418
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 2: ago he called the US Open a par sixty seven

419
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 2: or something, and then I think he proceeded to miss

420
00:22:55,400 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 2: the cut. But I would say that if he can

421
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 2: just be solid at the Masters, he is going to

422
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 2: be a major factor on a yearly basis in the

423
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 2: US Open and the PGA Championship. So even if he

424
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 2: doesn't win a Masters, and I would, I would say

425
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 2: it's definitely no lock for him to win a Masters.

426
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 2: But even last year, was he leading it when on

427
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 2: whole twelve he or no, it was whole thirteen he

428
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 2: chunked that like third shot and he'd I think he

429
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,120
Speaker 2: had like a seven or eight and it just kind

430
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 2: of lost him the tournament. But I think that was

431
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 2: on Saturday if I remember correctly. If he can just

432
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 2: be consistent at the Masters, like be a factor, that

433
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 2: that's gonna change the legacy because for a long time,

434
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 2: like he's never gonna do. The Masters is not gonna

435
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 2: be his thing, and the British Open probably is not

436
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 2: gonna definitely not gonna be his thing because conditions are

437
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 2: always changing out there, slow greens. So I think the

438
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 2: British Open aka the Open Championship that I'd be stunned

439
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 2: if Bryceon never won that thing, won that thing, But

440
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 2: I think the US Open and the PGA Championship he

441
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: could win him on a yearly basis. I'm not saying

442
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: he's going to win him every year. But like it's

443
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 2: never shocking either one of those tournaments. If it's like

444
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,959
Speaker 2: Bryson's type for the League going into Sunday, and then

445
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 2: I think the Masters was a little bit of a

446
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 2: wild card because like I do think he's gonna be

447
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 2: able to figure this out, and then he kind of did.

448
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 2: And the one thing they've always said is like a

449
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 2: you know, you got to hit a draw, and what

450
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 2: does he hit? He hits a draw. You know why

451
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 2: Bubba have success there? Lefty but he hits a fade.

452
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 2: Phil Mickelson left you, but he can hit a faith Obviously,

453
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: you can hit cuts there. I mean more Cow had

454
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 2: success last year. But uh yeah, I mean I think

455
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 2: Bryson is just a major, major factor. My parents recently

456
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 2: moved from New York to Myrtle Beach. The main reason

457
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 2: is for the golf courses. My father calls it the

458
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 2: golf capital of the world because there are ninety plus

459
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 2: golf courses including the dunes. In your opinion, which city,

460
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: state is your golf capital of the world. That's a

461
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 2: good question. I would say that Myrtle Beach is you

462
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: could argue as the golf capital of the South. I'm biased.

463
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 2: It's not like I've lived here, what three years now,

464
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 2: three and a half years. I would say on the

465
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 2: West coast, it's pretty hard to beat the Greater Phoenix

466
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: area when it comes to golf. I mean, there is

467
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 2: a golf course. It's hard to drive down a somewhat

468
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 2: major roadway and not see a golf course every couple

469
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: of miles. So I can't speak to Myrtle Beach. I've

470
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 2: always wanted to go. Like you said that, there's definitely

471
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: a shitload of golf courses there, But I would put

472
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 2: I think you'd almost have to split it up into

473
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 2: regions because the Greater Phoenix area, for the West Coast,

474
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 2: there's nothing like this. There is so much golf here

475
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 2: it is outrageous. And I'm talking private courses. I'm talking

476
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 2: public courses. I'm talking muni courses, I'm talking putt putts,

477
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 2: I'm talking grass clippings, night golf that there is. I

478
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 2: would put this as year round. I mean, I would

479
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 2: imagine Myrtle Beach the same way, beside the occasional like

480
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 2: hurricane or something. But I do believe that this could

481
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 2: go toe to toe. Now I'm not saying that of like,

482
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 2: I want to go to Myrtle Beach, and that is

483
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 2: a place that I will attend with my golf clubs

484
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 2: in the next couple of years. I cracked a smile

485
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 2: hearing you talk about what to do about the wedding

486
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: ring while golfing. My regular foursome all got married about

487
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 2: the same time and this was a topic of conversation.

488
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 2: Our solution was regular wedding ring on a daily basis,

489
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 2: but silicone ring when doing other activities involving your hands.

490
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: I found my finger can swell a bit when golfing,

491
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 2: especially when it's warm, the ring can get a bit tight.

492
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:10,239
Speaker 2: A silicon ring solves that problem. I think he was

493
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: alluding to when I talked about what do you do

494
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 2: with the ring when you golf? What about when you lift?

495
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,400
Speaker 2: What about when you just do activities? And I've talked

496
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 2: to people that say they never take it off. I've

497
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 2: talked to people that say they take it off all

498
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 2: the time. My problem is this, I would say, the

499
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 2: only thing that I haven't come close to losing is

500
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,679
Speaker 2: like my nice watch. But that's pretty big and I'm

501
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 2: not a huge watch guy, so I only wear it

502
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 2: pick and shoes. But I've never been in a position

503
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 2: where I've misplaced it. I lose my car keys all

504
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 2: the time. I lose my sunglasses every day, I lose

505
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 2: my wallet. I don't even know where it is right now,

506
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: no clue. So a ring which is smaller than all those.

507
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 2: I lose my stanley. Look how big my Stanley is.

508
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 2: I forget this thing at the gym. I'm like every

509
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 2: other day it's like, oh, I gotta pull back around

510
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 2: because I left my Stanley in the locker room. That

511
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 2: ring I can't take off because if I take that

512
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,959
Speaker 2: thing off, it will not be found. And I can

513
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 2: already see like I'll just take it off, put it

514
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 2: in the golf cart. Well, it's one thing if if

515
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 2: it's your golf cart, But if I'm at some random

516
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 2: course or a TPC all of a sudden, think how

517
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 2: many times I've lost my my little rangefinder. So that's

518
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: what scares me, the move of even if I have

519
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,679
Speaker 2: a backup one taking it off and putting some else on,

520
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 2: I can see that thing go bye bye. I also

521
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 2: was torn, like do you go do you go black?

522
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 2: Do you go silver? Do you go silver? And black?

523
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 2: Do you go gold? I just went silver? I guess

524
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: some old school traditional don't hate the black though I

525
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 2: couldn't go gold. Just saw an update that Bryson has

526
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 2: yet to sign a two hundred and eighty million dollar

527
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 2: extension would Live with potential to return to the tour.

528
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 2: I know all the Live players are currently banned, but

529
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 2: if it were to change, do you see more players

530
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: return to the PGA because of Live slowly dying out

531
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: and no one caring about it. I really think that

532
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 2: these guys will look back and go, we just cashed

533
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 2: out for a couple of years, nothing changed. We cashed

534
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: out for a couple of years, come back, and honestly

535
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 2: we have more intrigue. You know, if you're Bryce and

536
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 2: people forget. I wouldn't say he was polarized. I'd say

537
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 2: most people didn't like him. People made fun of him.

538
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 2: Now part of that was Keepka was had much more

539
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 2: support obviously. The part of my take, guys like him

540
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 2: seems as more of a cool guy. Bryson was a

541
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 2: nerd and everyone talks shit and then eventually kept gun

542
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 2: him just became buddies and Bryson's YouTube channel took off

543
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 2: like a rocket ship. He's playing golf with Tom Brady,

544
00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 2: Tony Romo and just everyone under the sun and people

545
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 2: just like the dude. So now Bryson's popularity feels like

546
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 2: he's the biggest star in golf, and that includes Scotti,

547
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 2: Scheffler and ry McElroy. So I would say Tiger's the

548
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 2: most famous, But right now, the biggest star actively playing

549
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 2: is Bryson d Schambeau. So whatever the PGA Tour has

550
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 2: to do to get that guy in tournaments whenever this

551
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 2: thing merges, is the most important thing. Honestly, It's more

552
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: important than rom and Koepka, and those guys are important.

553
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 2: But having Bryson d Chambeau compete, like at the players

554
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 2: or at the waste management at riv at Jack's tournament,

555
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 2: just at some of these tournaments, whenever it finally does happen,

556
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 2: will be a big fucking deal. And I think by

557
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 2: far he will be the biggest draw of the group.

558
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 2: And I think he will come back. You know, Michael

559
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 2: Jordan was extremely popular and then all of a sudden

560
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 2: he goes to play for the minor league team. When

561
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 2: he came back, he was bigger than ever. I'll never forget.

562
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I was probably twel years old turning on

563
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 2: that game when he came out at MSG in forty five,

564
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 2: Like it's a little bit and again I'm not comparing

565
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 2: Bryson d. Chambeau to Michael Jordan, but relative to like

566
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 2: the golf world that moment, he will be by far

567
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 2: of all the guys, even if Kopka's there, Ram's there,

568
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 2: will be the number one guy we talk about and

569
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 2: be the number one guy I want to watch. I'd

570
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 2: be interested, like what will his odds be his first

571
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 2: PGA tournament? Like is he nine to one?

572
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: Guy?

573
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 2: Are we getting him fourteen to one? The odds on

574
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 2: some of the live guys is gonna be fascinating. I

575
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 2: think the sad part is and I've loved this guy

576
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 2: and I've gambled on him a lot, and I've won

577
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 2: some money on him over the years. Is DJ's just done?

578
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 2: You know, DJ is what twelve thirteen years younger in Phil, Phil,

579
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: It's understandable. He's fifty three to fifty four years old.

580
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 2: You're just not as good at golf. You can't compete

581
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 2: with the younger guys. Like, okay, I get it. Whatever,

582
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 2: you become a YouTube guy with Grant totally understand DJ

583
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 2: basically is like, yeah, I'm over. I'm just done. Someone

584
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 2: asked me the other day, what are the chances that

585
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 2: Dustin Johnson, over the course of the last six months

586
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 2: has just actively went to the range and like really practiced,

587
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 2: not like hit a couple of balls before he went

588
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 2: to play, like with his buddies or with his brother

589
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 2: or just around you know, playing high level guys, but

590
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 2: just went and grinded. Does feel like kind of small.

591
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 2: It does feel like those days for him are over.

592
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 2: Which listen, you grind for fifteen twenty years, you make

593
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 2: all this money, you get paid out for Live. When

594
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 2: he first went to Live, he was kicking the shit

595
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 2: out of everybody. I'm a big DJ guy, but it's

596
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 2: kind of sad. He does feel like his career is over.

597
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 2: And I do commend Bryson. Now he's way younger, he

598
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: has a lot more to accomplish, but like, it does

599
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 2: feel like Bryson. Listen, Bryson's a golf nerd. Bryson honestly

600
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 2: is much more like Phil and Tiger in terms of

601
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: just thinks about golf twenty four seven, three sixty five.

602
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 2: That's like Tom and Peyton Manning, Like those guys think

603
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 2: and talk about football all the time, like Belichick and

604
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,959
Speaker 2: Andy Reid, right, And that's kind of the Bryson of golf,

605
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 2: Like he's a junkie. He's gonna be in to golf

606
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 2: the rest of his life. It defines his life, which

607
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 2: I respect, like he takes it very, very seriously. That's

608
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 2: never been the case with Dustin Johnson. He was just

609
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 2: an elite talent and kept GOA was somewhere in the middle.

610
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:22,719
Speaker 2: I think he cares about it a lot more than

611
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 2: he portrays, and he just loves to compete. And I

612
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 2: think Bryson is like the Phil Tiger Nerdy who also

613
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 2: likes to compete. So I'm pretty I get fired up

614
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 2: like every human for the majors just because it's I

615
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 2: kind of mis seeing these guys. Would you ever consider

616
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 2: a prop bet talk, enjoy the golf talk, and regard

617
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 2: your schedule. I think it's perfect because the PGA picks

618
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 2: up from February September. The last major tournament is the

619
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 2: Ryder Cup in September, not really missing much. Totally agree.

620
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 2: My thing is I yeah, I mean I will talk whatever.

621
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 2: I don't do that many prop bets, and maybe I'm

622
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 2: an outlier like the things I bet when it comes

623
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 2: to golf, our top tens and twenties. I used to

624
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 2: just bet winners, and then you realize, like that there's

625
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 2: a reason morons play the lottery. Unless my mom plays

626
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 2: the lottery. I tell her all the time, like we

627
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 2: got to stop doing this, like just go do something,

628
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 2: buy something else, just keep your money, stop playing the lottery.

629
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 2: And I think sometimes betting on people to win, which

630
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 2: I still do, it's just very, very difficult. Now It's

631
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 2: easier to hit a winner in golf than it is

632
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 2: playing the lottery. Well, my point is I've really transitioned

633
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 2: to top tens, the top twenties, and I've had a

634
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 2: lot of success over the years. But in terms of

635
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 2: like individual matchups, you know, this guy versus this guy

636
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 2: on an individual day, I don't really play now. The

637
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 2: one thing I've dabbled in, especially around the majors, are

638
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 2: like the groups, they basically pick five guys. So for

639
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:56,919
Speaker 2: the Masters, that'll be like Scottie, Rory Xander, rom cam

640
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 2: Smith or you know, I'm trying to Ludvic and and

641
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 2: you know, starting with Scotty he'll be like plus one

642
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 2: fifty and Ludwig might be four to one, and you

643
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 2: you're just betting against those five guys whoever has the

644
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 2: best score at the end of seventy two holes. So

645
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 2: you can get led big five to one just against

646
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 2: four other guys. Now you're playing the best guys sometimes

647
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 2: like the second tiers or third tiers. It's like kind

648
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 2: of random guys. It'll be like Max Homer, It'll be

649
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 2: like Shane Lowry, it'll be like Jason Day, Victor Hoveland.

650
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 2: Like that's probably as proppy as I'll get. I've done

651
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 2: this before, but you talk about lottery tickets, first round leader,

652
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,240
Speaker 2: there can't be a bigger hail Mary. It's professional golf.

653
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 2: All these guys on any given day can shoot seven,

654
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 2: eight nine. Major is a little harder. But we just

655
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 2: saw Jake Napp shoot a fifty nine. No one in

656
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 2: the world thinks when Thursday starts, you know this guy's

657
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 2: gonna shoot a fifty nine. But it's like you can

658
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 2: get sixty to one odds for one round. I've dabbled

659
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 2: a little bit in that, but that's probably as proppy

660
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 2: as I've ever got. I think it's a little easier

661
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 2: prop betting in football or basketball when it's like Steph's

662
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 2: gonna score over twenty four points. You know, Debo's gonna

663
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 2: have sixty yards. Jalen Hurts is gonna score two touchdowns.

664
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 2: I guess there's some of the birdie ones making miss

665
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 2: the cut. I don't hate, but that's a little like

666
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 2: over and unders, Like I don't like rooting for guys

667
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 2: to miss the cut, but sometimes the guys not playing well,

668
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 2: it's not a bad bet. Yeah, but overall, that'll do

669
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 2: it for go Lo appreciate everybody. I think I'll do

670
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 2: a podcast tomorrow on some football stuff. I think I

671
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 2: saw Maria mentioned before I walked in here to Devonte

672
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 2: Adams got cut, which is not shocking. Of course, you

673
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 2: had a forty million dollar cap hit. But other than that,

674
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,439
Speaker 2: have a great day, and let's win a little money

675
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 2: this week. Lowry Top twenty, Ludwig Hideki top tens. Let's

676
00:36:54,760 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 2: get it. Okay, we just probably within the last thirty minutes,

677
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 2: had some breaking news and I wanted to jump on

678
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 2: and do give a quick reaction to what happened. Saquon

679
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 2: Barkley got a contract extension. He got like thirty five

680
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 2: million more guaranteed dollars, and he now jumps McCaffrey, who

681
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 2: last year I think got a big raise right before

682
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 2: the season, and then he couldn't even play at like

683
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 2: eighteen nineteen million dollars a year. Now, now Saquon's making

684
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 2: over twenty and if you factor in the guarantees of

685
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 2: thirty six plus the twenty seven from last year, you

686
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 2: know you're still guaranteeing a running back fifty million dollars.

687
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 2: But I think a couple things. One, Howie Roseman knows

688
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 2: his locker room, and when he was at the combine,

689
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 2: I saw him tell Florio that he thought that Saquon

690
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 2: had the greatest season in the history of a running

691
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 2: back in NFL history. Now I'd have to get like

692
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 2: Parcels and Belichick on the horn here, some historians, to

693
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 2: some people at NFL films, but clearly it was an

694
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 2: all time great season. I do think it would be

695
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 2: tough to go in. It's essentially his contract here. He's

696
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 2: signed a three year deal, but he only got twenty

697
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 2: seven guaranteed, So you do the math. I mean, the

698
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 2: last season's kind of fake, so you want to take

699
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 2: care of the guy. But when you have, he's still

700
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 2: the seventh highest paid guy on his own offense. They

701
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,320
Speaker 2: got two tackles making a ton. Landon Dickerson makes a boatload,

702
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:41,319
Speaker 2: quarterback makes a ton. Wide receivers make a lot. So

703
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 2: it's like, even with getting this extra extension guarantee, relative

704
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 2: to some of these guys on his own team, it's

705
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,919
Speaker 2: not like he is by far the highest paid guy.

706
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,879
Speaker 2: They got a lot of guys making a lot of dough.

707
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 2: But you can't have Saquon making half as much as

708
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 2: all these other guys. Forty nine ers were in this

709
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 2: position last year. Now, they wouldn't have done it if

710
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 2: they knew McCaffrey had all these injuries going on, these

711
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 2: phantom injuries. Saque's clearly healthy. But it's pretty tough to

712
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,919
Speaker 2: walk in and going, yeah, I'm making a third of

713
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 2: what like Devonte Smith's making, like that would be a

714
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 2: problem for me as a human being, or I'm making

715
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 2: you know, forty percent, right the human dynamics. Forever Belichick

716
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 2: used to talk about this. He would trade down in

717
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 2: the first round because he struggled. And this is before

718
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 2: like twenty eleven, once the CBA changed the amount of

719
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 2: money guys could make in the draft. But if you

720
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 2: drafted a player in the first round, depending on where

721
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 2: they would make, I mean if you had the number

722
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,800
Speaker 2: one or top five pick, they would often be the

723
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 2: highest paid guy in your locker room. But even if

724
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 2: you somehow got to like the late teens or early twenties,

725
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 2: that guy would be making more than a majority of

726
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 2: guys on your team. So you would bring in a

727
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 2: dude from college who immediately is making more than like

728
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 2: a pro bowler who still on a rookie contract. It

729
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 2: might be a third round or a fourth round. And listen,

730
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 2: I don't care what industry you work in. I don't

731
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 2: care how much money you make, whether it's fifty dollars

732
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:16,760
Speaker 2: or fifty million dollars. Competitive people, competitive men judge themselves

733
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 2: financially against others, and in a profession like football, when

734
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 2: it's well known who's making what, like I do think

735
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: you had to make them whole, and making a guy

736
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 2: hole at running back is still a bargain like you're

737
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 2: not having to give. Like if you trade for Miles

738
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 2: Garrett because of his position and you give him an extension,

739
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 2: or you traded for Max Crosby and give him an extension,

740
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 2: you are talking one hundred million plus Miles Garrett probably

741
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 2: talking like one hundred and forty million dollars. Micah Parson

742
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 2: wants a new contract. That number is going to be astronomical.

743
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, who clearly we do this all the time

744
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 2: with quarterbacks, right, It's about the fit. Who's your offensive court,

745
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 2: who are your skilled guys around you, who's your offensive line,

746
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 2: who's designed in the plays. It's no different with elite

747
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 2: running backs. Saquon Barkley, giants like kind of overrated, not

748
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 2: that great Christian McCaffrey with the Panthers, guy washed. Get

749
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 2: with the right guy, get in the right fit. Hall

750
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 2: of Fame talents rise. You could put Micah Parsons on

751
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,280
Speaker 2: any team, he's gonna look good. You could put Miles

752
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 2: Garrett on any team, he's gonna look good. You could

753
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 2: put Darrell Reeves on any team in his prime, he's

754
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 2: gonna lock you down. That is not the case with

755
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 2: a lot offensive players. As a wide receiver, I need

756
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 2: someone to throw me the ball. Many years Larry Fitzgerald

757
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 2: played with shitty quarterbacks. It impacts you. You see Saquon

758
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 2: Barkley Hall of Fame talent. I do not understand. Now,

759
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 2: did anyone know he was gonna help lead the Eagles

760
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl and run for twenty five hundred yards.

761
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 2: Kyie Roseman didn't know that, but anyone with a fucking

762
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,760
Speaker 2: pulse knew the moment the Eagles signed him. It's like, guys,

763
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 2: they have the best offensive line in the league. Guys,

764
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 2: they have a dual threat quarterback and they will run

765
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 2: RPOs with them, and they got sweet wide receivers in

766
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 2: a tight end. This is going to work. Now at

767
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 2: what level? I don't know. Is he gonna be a pro? Like,

768
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 2: he's probably gonna be a Pro bowler if he stays healthy,

769
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 2: and then he becomes like first team All Pro elite.

770
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 2: It's like plug and play. The only question it turns

771
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 2: out with guys like McCaffrey and Saquon when they get

772
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 2: in the right place is health. Because if they're healthy

773
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 2: and they're with the right team and the right play caller,

774
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 2: buckle up and get out of the way because they're

775
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 2: kicking your ass. And I just think at the price

776
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 2: point in which you pay these elite guys, it's still

777
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 2: a bargain. And this also shows like Jeffrey Lurie spends

778
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 2: more actual cash than all these other teams. And it's

779
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,800
Speaker 2: a great place to play if you're a good player

780
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 2: because you will get compensated and they will keep you

781
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 2: around what Saquon has going for him. Obviously relative to

782
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,399
Speaker 2: other positions, he's not that expensive, but they are around

783
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 2: him for a year and they're like, we love this guy. Wait,

784
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 2: you're telling me this super high character, great player who

785
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 2: is a superstar in the town. Everyone loves them. Like

786
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 2: that's the type guy you build your franchise around. And Saquon,

787
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 2: in a weird way take some pressure off the quarterback

788
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 2: on and off the field because of this starter. And

789
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 2: you know you hear this in the NBA, this argument

790
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 2: which is so stupid about like who's the face of

791
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 2: the league. It's like, guys, we determine that shit. The

792
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 2: face of the leagues were always determined by I don't know,

793
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:34,240
Speaker 2: the most popular player, Magic, Larry Michael, Kobe, Lebron Steph.

794
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 2: Like this isn't a complicated formula. The media doesn't choose it,

795
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 2: the fans the consumer does. And like Saquon is someone

796
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 2: who just resonates with people. He is a fun player

797
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 2: to watch. He is a fan friendly player. Whether you're

798
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 2: an Eagles fan or you like the NFL, you're gonna

799
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 2: like Saquon Barkley his approval rate, and this is true

800
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 2: with most star running backs. Barry Sanders, you did not

801
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,239
Speaker 2: need to be a Detroit Lions fan. You could have

802
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 2: been the Packers of the Vikings. Everyone like Barry Sanders.

803
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 2: I mean everyone likes Saquon Barkley. A couple of years ago,

804
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 2: I didn't hear anyone saying a negative thing about Christian McCaffrey.

805
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 2: Walter Payton's approval rating was pretty freaking high. Everyone likes

806
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 2: watching Derrick Henry play football. Players who run with the

807
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 2: football are enjoyable to watch. And I think when you

808
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,800
Speaker 2: factor in all the variables, this is an easy decision

809
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 2: for the Eagles, and like it just shows you now.

810
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 2: Saguan was the number two overall pick, so he made

811
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 2: a lot of money on his rookie deal. I mean,

812
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 2: as much as you humanly can in this rookie scale.

813
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 2: But like sometimes getting drafted super high, if you are

814
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 2: a really talented player, can really stunt your growth. It

815
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,839
Speaker 2: can really put you in a position that is not fair.

816
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 2: I say this all the time. I have a ton

817
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 2: of admiration for honestly, even college players. I can't imagine

818
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 2: being twenty twenty one years old and someone paying me

819
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 2: nine hundred and fifty thousand dollars, I would what would

820
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 2: you eat? Where would you even start? I don't even.

821
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,319
Speaker 2: I mean I can't even. And then the pressure of

822
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 2: these guys that get drafted really high and get a

823
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 2: thirty million dollars signing bonus, but then go to a

824
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 2: team that sucks and be a part of an operation

825
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 2: that's awful, and be a part of a roster that stinks.

826
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 2: Like to keep yourself it's so easy as you get older,

827
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,239
Speaker 2: and I do this a lot, like, hey, keep your

828
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 2: head up. Times are gonna get better, the sun comes up.

829
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 2: No matter how shitty your day is. Adversity's gonna hit

830
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 2: us all because all that cliche stuff is true for

831
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 2: every human being. There is no avoiding problems. But ideally,

832
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 2: the older you get, it's easier to handle. Like imagine

833
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 2: being like twenty three, twenty four or twenty five and

834
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,399
Speaker 2: handling all this shit. Now you could say, listen, I'd

835
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 2: rather handle this stuff as a young guy and still

836
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 2: be rich. True, I would rather handle problems with a

837
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 2: bunch of money in the bank than no money in

838
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 2: the bank and having problems. Totally agree. I'm not disputing

839
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 2: that but I do think for the most part, these

840
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 2: guys do a really good job. You know, look like

841
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 2: at Sam Darnold resurrecting his career, like never was really

842
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 2: a problem, even through when everyone was taking a gigantic

843
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 2: dump on the guy's career. You know, Baker handled it

844
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 2: probably like most of us would have little like, Okay,

845
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 2: I'll fight back a little bit. Don't blame him, but

846
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,320
Speaker 2: I think Saquon everything he went through with the Giants,

847
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 2: and listen, he wouldn't have been as good on the Giants.

848
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 2: We all understand that. But this continues to age. Like

849
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 2: John Morris sitting there, the owner of the fucking team said,

850
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if I can sleep at night. You

851
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 2: know why, because he's got a pulse, he's got a brain.

852
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 2: He understands like this is their arrival. They are the

853
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 2: team right down the road, and he understands they're good,

854
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 2: like they got a bunch of talent, like this is

855
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 2: probably gonna go well, and it couldn't have gone any better.

856
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 2: DeVante Adams was also traded right or not or I

857
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:55,720
Speaker 2: mean cut today. He was traded last during the season,

858
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 2: but like that was kind of obviously, eh. I don't

859
00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 2: know if this is gonna work. This thing's weird, and

860
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,239
Speaker 2: then what happened. It got weirder and this didn't work,

861
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 2: and now he's just available and it's just his career

862
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 2: ever since. Like him and Rogers, like I want out

863
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 2: of Green Bay. It's like, are you guys sure? Do

864
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:16,319
Speaker 2: you guys understand? Like Saquon got there, And sometimes I

865
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,319
Speaker 2: think it helps you know, DeVante was drafted into a

866
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 2: team with the Packers that is just one of the

867
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:25,400
Speaker 2: most well run operations in all the sports. Now, you

868
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 2: can nitpick they're not as good as some of these teams,

869
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 2: but they are consistently, always solid. More than likely they're

870
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 2: gonna win ten to twelve games every single year. So

871
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 2: it's like Devonte kind of got some first class problems,

872
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 2: which I we're all human beings. I don't care where

873
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 2: you are. I say this all the time about my job.

874
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 2: I'm a podcaster. Like my jobs problems relative to a

875
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 2: guy digging ditches or tough manual labor jobs, I can't relate.

876
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 2: But I don't care what you do. Everything that you

877
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 2: do for a living. Eventually, even the coolest stuff. You

878
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,280
Speaker 2: could be the starting quarterback for one of the NFL teams.

879
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 2: Eventually can feel some monotonous characteristics of your profession and

880
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:11,919
Speaker 2: it becomes a job and it feels like a job.

881
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 2: But you know, you look at DeVante, it's like you

882
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 2: had it pretty good. And I think Saquan's like, I

883
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 2: realize what the NFL was. It's hard, it's humbling, you

884
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 2: get your ass kicked more often than not most places.

885
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 2: And he comes to the Eagles and he goes, god,

886
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:30,799
Speaker 2: I got it pretty well. I would say the same

887
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 2: thing for Stafford and props to him, and McVeigh kind

888
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 2: of alluded to this with McAfee, like when it comes out,

889
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 2: everyone will realize, damn, he did us a favor. And

890
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,799
Speaker 2: I give Stafford credit because listen, it's easy for me

891
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 2: to say, like, you've already have a bunch of money.

892
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 2: The difference between fifty million dollars, that's a lot of money.

893
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:50,760
Speaker 2: I don't care how much money got in the bank.

894
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 2: It's easy for a bunch of poor people to tell

895
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 2: you what to do with your money. And I would

896
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 2: include myself. I'm guilty of this, but I also give

897
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 2: you credit when you realize the money's not gonna change

898
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 2: my life, given I'm so rich. So I got a

899
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 2: pretty good spot. I understand what that Andy Douframe gift

900
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 2: of him getting through you know, the sewer and out

901
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 2: to that little river and looking up at the sky.

902
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 2: That's these guys getting away from the Giants, getting away

903
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 2: from the Detroit Lions, to the Eagles to the Rams.

904
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,919
Speaker 2: Like it doesn't get any better than that. It doesn't

905
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 2: mean you're gonna win the super Bowl every year, it

906
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 2: doesn't mean every year is gonna be easy, but like

907
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,120
Speaker 2: you're part of high level football team with an elite

908
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,399
Speaker 2: operation that has a chance. When the season starts. Every

909
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 2: single year, the Giants have no shot. They have no

910
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 2: fucking shot. Detroit pre Dan Campbell for the most part,

911
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:48,600
Speaker 2: had no shot. And I just think I'm always excited

912
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 2: when elite players get put in good positions, when elite

913
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 2: players who were good guys, like they weren't the problem,

914
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 2: they weren't the reason their team was losing. And seeing

915
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 2: Saquon get paid a bunch uh, it just seems. I mean,

916
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,839
Speaker 2: I've been watching him like a lot of people since

917
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,280
