1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: The volume. What is going on my people to go

2
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,760
Speaker 1: low Pod Golf. We uh, we took last week off

3
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: because I had a little too long of a weekend

4
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles and got the kron and was just

5
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: I had to give all my energy toward the National

6
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: Football League and uh, and yeah we're back at it.

7
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: The goal We're gonna develop some branding. Here's what I did.

8
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: I created an instagram because I do this mail bag

9
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: on the football podcast, but I'm gonna do it on

10
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: this too. And I created an instagram just at go

11
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: low Pod g O l O W Pod, and uh,

12
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna post golf stuff there and we'll just we'll

13
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: post different stuff there over time. We'll just you where

14
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: it goes. Be organic. We'll just kind of start this

15
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: bad boy from scratch. But you can instagram any questions

16
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: golf questions you want. I had a buddy, actually, my

17
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: cousin text Me's like, what it's gonna be like talking

18
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: for the every man now, I mean this is gonna

19
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: be about the PGA Tour and professional golf, and uh,

20
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: we'll also talk you know, if I ever play a

21
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: suite course or you know, maybe potentially have you know

22
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: players or caddies or something. As time goes on, we'll see.

23
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: But I mean this, this thirty minutes every week is

24
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: gonna be really focused on on the p G A tour,

25
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: not my own golf. Um, you know, playing right on

26
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: the five h been up and down, but I feel

27
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: like my swing is in a good place. But this

28
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: isn't about me about the tour. Gambling on the tour,

29
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: I think we have We're gonna have a gambling guy

30
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: come on every week starting after football season that we'll talk,

31
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: you know, just some some of the main best for

32
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: that week. It'll be kind of like I do with Stucky.

33
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: If you if you us, and I mean if you do,

34
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: probably listen because it's on the three and outfeed, but

35
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: it'll be somewhat similar. But obviously golf is different than football.

36
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: And uh so again you want to ask a golf

37
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: specific question, if you slide into my normal d M

38
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: S at John Middlecoff, I I just will not find

39
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: it or and if I do, it will not get

40
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: answered on the show. So you gotta go follow and

41
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: Instagram at GOLO g O l O W pod and

42
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: uh and that's where we will convene interact in terms

43
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,119
Speaker 1: of golf, and uh, I I do want to talk

44
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: a little bit about I had the opportunity two weeks

45
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: ago to play. We went down to Los Angeles and

46
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: uh with some with the family friend of mine and

47
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: his dad and a good buddy of mine, Scottie, and

48
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: we played Los Angeles Country Club, which you know, is

49
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: probably the best golf course I've ever played. It's not

50
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: like I played everywhere around the country. I would say

51
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: the best courses I've played, You're probably Olympic Club, you know,

52
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: would be Monterey Peninsula Country Club. Uh. You know, it's

53
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: not like I've played Augusta or some of these historic

54
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: places throughout the country. So it's it's mainly California golf.

55
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: From Bandoned Dunes. I've played Bandon Dunes, but this easily

56
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: the most exclusive place, and it was sweet. And the

57
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: US Open is gonna be there in two thousand twenty three,

58
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: and uh, I think it's gonna be remarkable. It's gonna

59
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: be pretty awesome. This course one the Lionel Richie has

60
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: a house I think on whole four, a little part three.

61
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: It's just stupid. It's probably I thought it was the

62
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: biggest house I've ever seen. And then you get to

63
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: the back nine and this little thing called the Playboy Mansion.

64
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: You can't see the Playboy Mansion because they have you know,

65
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: this really really high wall and these hedges really high.

66
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: You could hear the animals, you know, but Hugh, some

67
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: super rich guy bought it when you died. But they

68
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: still have the monkeys. So like your tea and off

69
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: we played the tips. I don't know why it was seyards. Uh,

70
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: this course is really hard and uh you can hear

71
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: the monkeys when you're swinging. And then down that hole

72
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: is the Spelling Mansion. That is the biggest house I've

73
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: ever seen. It's you know, it's like a twenty million

74
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: dollar house. So this the property. There multiple courses on

75
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: this property. It's gonna be so badass sometimes these courses.

76
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: You know, what makes Augusta really unique is it's one

77
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: of the most exclusive country clubs in the world, yet

78
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: they host you know, one of the most important tournaments

79
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: of the year. Well, there are several courses like this

80
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: throughout the country that the PGA Tour would love to do,

81
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: you know, host a big time tournament. They say, no,

82
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: Cyprus in Monterey would never do that. You know, l

83
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: a country club forever has always said no, like Augusta,

84
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: they don't need the money means nothing to these people,

85
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: but I'm glad they they've redone some stuff. It's going

86
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: to be It's gonna be badass. It really is, and

87
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: I was. I felt honored to play it, and then

88
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: obviously getting go to that football game. It was well

89
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: worth the O macron, which turned out to be like, uh,

90
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, I just lost my voice and had the sniffles. Uh.

91
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: About golf that week, I watched a decent amount because

92
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: we would play it in the afternoon. I would wake

93
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: up and I would watch the Cappalua which I went

94
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago with my brother and actually Scottie,

95
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: the guy I went, played l a country club that

96
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: their family was there and my mom and we were

97
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: on that island. We just didn't make the drive across.

98
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: We just played a bunch of resort courses. But that

99
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: course is sweet. I mean, there probably aren't better views

100
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: all year long, including like Pebble, than the shots at Cappalua.

101
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: But to me, the thing that stood out at Cappaloua,

102
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 1: and he's playing again this week is there's not even

103
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: a competition. Who the best. Who the best golfer is

104
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: in the world. It's John Rom and to me there

105
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: is a sizeable gap between number two. You could make arguments,

106
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: and I'm not taking into account the Gruel Golf rankings.

107
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: I think Colin Moore, cow tech Leias, dude, you could

108
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 1: make that argument he's second. You could make Patrick Cantley second.

109
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: I mean on a given week, justin Thomas, especially now

110
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: with bones, I think they're gonna be major factor. Obviously

111
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: kept go when he's on, I would take him over

112
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: just about anybody. But John Ram is an absolute force

113
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: in the machine. He finished second in that golf tournament.

114
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: He had thirty two birdies, an eagle and one bogie.

115
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: Think about that. And he lost to Cam Smith, who's

116
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: actually a stick and put his face off. But I

117
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: think John Ram and he did last year. He was

118
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: absolutely awesome right wins the US Open, should have won

119
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: the Memorial if it wasn't for can't Ley. He was

120
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 1: right there in the mix for the FedEx Cup. Like

121
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: John Ram is a guy in the peak of his powers,

122
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: does everything well. He does not missfair ways. Oh yeah.

123
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 1: He hits at three thirty yards, oh yeah. His swing

124
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: is probably the most repeatable swing right there with Tony

125
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: fen Now in the game. And his short game is awesome.

126
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: His iron game is the best besides like him and Markala.

127
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: But he's so much deeper than more Kawa and short games.

128
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy, he's fun to watch. He's you know,

129
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: he's seven. You know, he looks like he's my age,

130
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: in his mid thirties. But I think this guy is

131
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: gonna go on an absolute heater uh rattle off a

132
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: couple of majors over the next couple of years. I

133
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: think we're watching a Hall of Fame golfer in the

134
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: peak of his powers. And you know, I think once

135
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: upon a time, Phil Mickelson made bets with people, like

136
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: he bet people like a million dollars his kid was

137
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: gonna win a major when he was, you know, just

138
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: the young spaniard at Arizona State. You know, in football terms,

139
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: this guy's like a blue chipper, remember like Julio Jones

140
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: when Alabama got him back, when Nick Saban was starting

141
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: his dynasty. Number one player, Like, that's this guy's level

142
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: and now he's realizing it at the highest level of golf.

143
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: And it's fun to watch. I mean, you watch the

144
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: Ryder Cup. We absolutely destroyed them. This guy was the

145
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: best player of the twenty four guys there, including every

146
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: single one of our guys. John Rom was the best player.

147
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: So I'm a fan. I love watching him play golf.

148
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: I think it's cool to watch anyone mature, especially you

149
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: know us guys, and are you know or twenties can

150
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: be just we're not in control. I didn't gain control

151
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: of my emotions. And listen, I've never played for two

152
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: million dollars in golf tournaments. But I'm not even talking

153
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: about on the course. I'm just talking in life. Until

154
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: my thirties, and I always had anger problems. I actually

155
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: find John Rom very relatable when he was younger because

156
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: I I couldn't control my emotions and as you get older,

157
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: hopefully ideally you're able to kind of control your head.

158
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: And I think that is the definition of maturity. It's

159
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: not as much as just don't just grow old and like,

160
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 1: maturity is just controlling your emotions because we all are

161
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: emotional humans. Anyone worth their salt, any high achiever, any

162
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: ambitious person does not like to fail. But it's part

163
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: of life. And uh, he's a guy that I I thought,

164
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: you know, probably in like eighteen nineteen. I watched him, like,

165
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be hard for him to maximize

166
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: the potential being this big of a head case. And

167
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: and he's clearly gained the ability to control, not free

168
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: can out and you're allowed to freak out like it's

169
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: it's golf. We all get piste off, we all drop

170
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: f bombs. I mean, Tiger was notorious for it, right

171
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: in his younger days, Tiger, you know, f bombs hitting

172
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: his club. But as he got older, they kind of

173
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: slowed down. Like you watch Tiger, you know, before the injury,

174
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, especially in his forties, the guy was a

175
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: complete control of upstairs and he always was. But he

176
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: never the outburst stopped. And I think that's cool. I mean,

177
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: it's that's fun of fun part of watching sports, right,

178
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: watching guys you like players, you like coaches you like

179
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, change and adapt for the better as time

180
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 1: goes on. And you you look at this week, Lak,

181
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: I've never played it uh down in southern California in

182
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: pomp Springs, Romp's playing in it the fields, Okay, I

183
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: mean he's the heavy favorite. He he gets you know,

184
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: there are gonna be some tournaments this year if he

185
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: stays on this heater where he's you know, the Tiger

186
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: treatment was like two to one, three to one, Like

187
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: he's getting six and a half to one in this tournament. Now,

188
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: I get, there's not you know, a million, you know

189
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: a lot of guys in the top fifty or not

190
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 1: in this event. But still like you got six and

191
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: a half to one, especially when you have fenale a

192
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: answers in it. Patrick can't lays in it like that's

193
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 1: that's a lot of respect and he's earned it, you know. Now,

194
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: I don't feel comfortable ever betting on like those type numbers.

195
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 1: It's like this week Tony Fenelle finished top five there

196
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: last year. He's obviously a West Coast guy, you know,

197
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: I know he doesn't win really ever, but twenty two

198
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 1: one odds, Like I don't feel great about betting guys

199
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: in single digit odds, even guys as good as John

200
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: rom That's just not gonna be my style betting on golf.

201
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: So I actually kind of like Tony fine, uh this

202
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: week one? But uh, And I guess the other big

203
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: story this weekend when they went to the Sony Open,

204
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: which again another tournament that just looked really good on

205
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: television anytime you have the ocean in the background. In Hawaii,

206
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: which you know personally is probably my favorite vacation spot

207
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: in America, it's just really hard to beat. Now if

208
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: you if you're listening to this and you live in

209
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: the in the on the East Coast, it's obviously a

210
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: massive trek for you guys you know Florida and the

211
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 1: Caribbean and the Bahamas. You know it's much closer, and

212
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: I get it. Uh, you know, it's a three hour

213
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: flight for us. I I could own a home in

214
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 1: Hawaii without hesitation. Hell one day. Maybe that's a's a

215
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: good little gold write down. Have a pad in Hawaii,

216
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: because that place does not suck, and it's an awesome

217
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: place to play golf. Last time I was there, I

218
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: think we played three or four rounds. But I Haddeck

219
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: is another guy who I just love gambling on. I

220
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: love watching him play golf, not even just because some

221
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: of his finishes. No one finishes like he just hit

222
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 1: it out of bounds and it goes three twenty down

223
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: the pipe, quite like Adeki. But I think his swing

224
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: looks different. Obviously, his back swing is just a little

225
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: slower than everyone else. Yet his ball striking and the

226
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: power that guy possesses is just stupid. And I love

227
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: the leak, guys hitting elead shots and big spots. Hit

228
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: a three would in the playoff from two seventy seven

229
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: yards a nice buttercut to like three ft tapping eagle

230
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: to win it like that that stuff he Decki's on

231
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: a massive heater. He's won three times in ten months.

232
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: You know. Obviously the Augusta, which kind of a big deal,

233
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: uh he you know, essentially hosted the Olympics in Japan,

234
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: which the pressure. I loved watching the Olympics. I love

235
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: that course that they played. But you you watch those

236
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: guys on Golf Channel talking about the the pressure and

237
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: the weight that was on Hedeki's shoulders for that event.

238
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine. I don't think any of us

239
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: can any of us can fathom how big of a deal.

240
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: I mean, basically, right now in Japan, it's it's him

241
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: and Otani are just you know, they're Tiger Woods and

242
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: their baby Ruth. That's essentially what it is. And you

243
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: know what you know for his awesome as Otani is

244
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: and he's a badass, right, he pitches, he hits all

245
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: these bombs. Baseball is different because it's a team game.

246
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: A Deckie won the Masters, How cool is gonna be?

247
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: And it's one of my favorite moments of the year

248
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: in the in golf when the menu comes out for

249
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: Augusta and you see, like what the guys are putting

250
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: on the menu, what they're gonna eat. I always think

251
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 1: I'm a sucker for that moment. Right. Remember Tiger had

252
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: like sushi and chicken and you know ice cream. I

253
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 1: remember DJ had like barbecue. Uh. It's just it's cool.

254
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 1: Just see what the guys are gonna eat. I fascinated

255
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: to watch what Hedeckie chooses. I think he's uh, he's

256
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 1: another guy that you know, I think we view like

257
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: he's thirty seven years old. He's twenty nine, and he's

258
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,559
Speaker 1: easily one of the best ball strikers on tour. His

259
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: his downfall has just been putting. I mean, let's face it,

260
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: most of us struggle with putting. But when he puts well, like,

261
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: this guy can beat anyone, including John Rom. Now I

262
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: know John Rom didn't play in the Sony Open, but

263
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: I I love watching Hedecki matsy. I'm a play golf.

264
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: It's it's really fun because he's an elite player. One

265
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: thing that happened a couple of weeks ago, and I

266
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: actually thought Chris Paul had a fantastic tweet about this

267
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: is Tim Rosenford died and and Chris's tweet basically said,

268
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: you know, beside watching basketball, I watch more Golf Channel

269
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: than any other channel. And I know the guys for

270
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: the Warriors, like Steph Curry and and Andrea Guadala. They've

271
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: they've had a team full of golfers, and like I know, speaking,

272
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: you know, my profession, like what I watched the most

273
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: of and how I make my money is football. I

274
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: don't watch the NFL network. You couldn't pay me to

275
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: watch the programming on ESPN. There is only one sports

276
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: media channel beside the games. I mean, I'll watch Fox

277
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: Sports one if they got games. I watched Coward Show,

278
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: but that is probably the only non game programming I

279
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: watch on ESPN, FS one, NFL network, NBA TV. I

280
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: don't watch any of those. I I consume a ton.

281
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you're listening to this and you like golf,

282
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: a ton of Golf channel. Golf Channel on every single night,

283
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: Golf Channel obviously Thursday and Friday, when you know, tournament

284
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: start and they always carry it, especially any big tournament

285
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: and they're doing live from I consume that, you know

286
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: what out of that, and obviously being a bald guy,

287
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: any bald guy on television, I'm kind of drawn to.

288
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: And I felt it's weird, you know, I I get

289
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: this sometimes and what I do because when you listen

290
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: to someone, you have a you know, a unique relationship

291
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: to them, right well, when you consume something a lot,

292
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: you feel like you knew the guy. And I felt

293
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: like I knew Tim Rosenfort Like I just felt like

294
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: when I saw that he passed, I you know, I

295
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: never met the guy, knew the guy, honestly, didn't know

296
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: that much about him, but I was gutted. I can't

297
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: tell you how many times at night or turn on

298
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: Golf Channel in the morning. He's just been part of

299
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 1: my life and and that just and then you read

300
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: the stories that it turns out he was a college

301
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: football player. I mean, he was my type guy. And

302
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: I'm sure anyone that you know that consumes the Golf

303
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: channel was that sucked. It really did. And my grandpa

304
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: in the nineties dies died of Alzheimer's I saw what

305
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: it did to my mom. I saw a first hand,

306
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: you know, just him going through it and had to

307
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 1: go to a home. You wouldn't wish that upon your

308
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: worst enemy. I I've seen cancer. I've seen it all, um,

309
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: and I don't it sucks. I mean, at a young age,

310
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: I saw a lot of death with some of my

311
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: my grandparents. But I would say Alzheimer's is unlike anything

312
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: I've ever experienced. And to go through that, the memory

313
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: loss and the how much it dehabilitates and takes your

314
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: life away, and what it does to that this your

315
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: surrounding loved ones is tough. It really is. And there

316
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: were some awesome tributes and you could tell, like, let's

317
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: face it, a lot of the modern day media athletes

318
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: don't like them. You know, they're not for you, They're

319
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: really they just care about their own stories and that's

320
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: their job. This guy felt like much more of what

321
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: we see today, some of these hybrids, you know. And

322
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: I think he was ahead of his time. He he was,

323
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: And that's a that's a tough loss for the golfing community.

324
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 1: And then another big story that's kind of come out

325
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks, and I I thought about

326
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: this during uh, you know, when the Corona lockdowns happened,

327
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: and depending on where you live, you know where I lived,

328
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 1: ship we're still you know, battle in some of these restrictions,

329
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: but most of the country had everything kind of stripped

330
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: back in two thousand twenty and then first, really the

331
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: first sport to come back was golf. Bravo, they set

332
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: the tone them in Dana White, but it was the

333
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: one thing you could really do, and golf exploded around

334
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 1: the country. You know, wherever you live, if you play

335
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: public golf, those golf courses in the middle and late

336
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: two thousand twenty and early two thousand, we're insanity. I

337
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: had a couple of local, nice courses. Then you could

338
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: go out at the moment's notice, played by yourself, have

339
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 1: the course to yourself forever. You know, for years leading

340
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: up and the moment that hit, the amount of people

341
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: on a golf course was staggering and it pisched you off.

342
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 1: But as someone that loves the game and someone that

343
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: wants to see more people enjoy the game like people

344
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: do football, basketball, and baseball, I think it's the best

345
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 1: thing that's happened to golf since Tiger Woods. Because the

346
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: more and more the reason so many people watch football.

347
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: I think, how many people just play high school football?

348
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: I know, I can raise my hand. I never played

349
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: it down past high school football, but I've loved the

350
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: sport of football, even though I was god awful at it,

351
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: since the first time I ever put on a helmet

352
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: in ninth grade JV football. You know that that bonding

353
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: with your teammate, that that's just it's unlike anything I've

354
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: ever done soccer, baseball, basketball, anything. And you know, I

355
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: had no business playing the sport. I should have just

356
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 1: focused on golf. It was the only thing I was

357
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: halfway decent at. But football just drew once you play it,

358
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,479
Speaker 1: you just kind of addicted for life. And football by

359
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: far has the most amount of youth people in their

360
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: youth that play it, just based on the numbers, right.

361
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: And you know, golf, I would say historically probably in

362
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: the least, you know, a lot of people played high

363
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 1: school baseball, a lot of people in high school basketball.

364
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: At least, you know, in junior high or whatever you play,

365
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 1: most people will just weren't playing golf. And it's always

366
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: been viewed as like this rich elita sport, which the

367
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: irony is like, you know, public golf is relatively cheap,

368
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: but the equipment, I do get it. And then Tiger

369
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: changed it forever. He made it mainstream because he felt

370
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: like you know, Michael Jordan's right, He felt like Joe Montana,

371
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: He felt like Babe Ruth playing golf, and he made

372
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: it cool. Obviously the racial element to him, he looked

373
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 1: different his name. But you know, he's been in and

374
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: out of the mix now for a decade, and luckily

375
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: he did a great job of inspiring this entire crew

376
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: of guys under thirty five. They're on tour right now,

377
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: are there because of Tiger Woods, Especially the guys in

378
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: their twenties. They all say he was their hero. He

379
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: was the guy that they aspired to be. Like, who

380
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: didn't you know, I mean, in the mid nineties he

381
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: was my favorite athlete, him and Michael Jordan. There were

382
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: or late ninety there wasn't anything like Tiger was. He

383
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: was kicking everyone's ass. But I think this this stretch

384
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: of of new people playing golfer. The moment you start

385
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,719
Speaker 1: playing golf, you're just naturally kind of gonna be interested

386
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: because more than likely, if you just have one athletic

387
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: bone in your body, you're gonna hit a really good shot,

388
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: and the moment you hit a really good shot, you're

389
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: addicted for life. And the moment you get addicted for life.

390
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: One you're just gonna stumble upon YouTube's you're gonna watch

391
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 1: some stuff, but you're gonna watch the best guys play. Right.

392
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: Why do people at ten, twelve, fifteen years old, if

393
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: you're a high school baseball player, high school fotball player,

394
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: idolize whoever Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, you know, Ken Griffey Jr.

395
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: You name it right, Steph Curry Because you want to

396
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 1: be like them, because you play the sport and you

397
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: want to be like them. Well, the more and more

398
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: you play, you're gonna get into golf. Watching the PGA

399
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: Tour and especially now with the influx of gambling is

400
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: gonna help a lot. But Netflix, who is now involved

401
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: in the sport, to me, is going to be a

402
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: game changer. I think a huge element. Like I've always

403
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: said that Magic Johnson, Larry Bird were Tom Brady and

404
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning were that equivalent of football in the two thousand's.

405
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: They helped take it to a completely different level. I

406
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 1: also think the show Hard Knocks was very very important,

407
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: and someone like me inspired me, like I want to

408
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: work in that, Like that looks really cool. I want

409
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 1: to be in these meetings where you're like acquiring players

410
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: and cutting players. Now, if anyone that's watched Hard Knocks

411
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 1: the last like five eight years, those no longer take place,

412
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: it is it's actually a terrible watch. I watched fifteen

413
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: minutes of this season and I turned it off. But

414
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 1: the Hard Knocks in season with the Indianapolis Colts was excellent.

415
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: F one. I've never watched in F one race in

416
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: my life, but that show was freaking awesome because it

417
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: gave me an insight of this big money sport, of

418
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 1: these guys that are you know, Lewis, that are clearly

419
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: pretty famous, something that's very very big worldwide, and they

420
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: made it very, very interesting. And I think documentaries have

421
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: had a huge comeback with just the explosion of these

422
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 1: streaming services. Well, I think gambling we we. I think

423
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 1: the casual fan of you know, I'm followed. The television

424
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 1: ratings golf has been very very has seen an influx

425
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: of viewers over the last year. Their television ratings on

426
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: big tournaments were extremely high. Right the NFL's King everyone's

427
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: competing for second. Really college football second. But like the

428
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 1: NBA that they've lost half their viewership baseball, it's all segmented.

429
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 1: We only just watch our own team. But these big

430
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: golf tournaments now getting three four million people to watch

431
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,400
Speaker 1: well Netflix, and I don't know exactly how they'll set

432
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 1: it up right in That's why the Hard Knocks it

433
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: was very it was specific how every year would go

434
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: right training camp, lead up to the trading camp, games,

435
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: some inside who's gonna make the team, who's fighting for it?

436
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: And the f one was a little bit different because

437
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: it was in season. You would focus on a specific

438
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: team for maybe an episode or two. The drivers, the owner,

439
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,239
Speaker 1: like the guy the pit crew or whatever that guy

440
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: is considered. I think golf you have a lot of

441
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: options because you have these individual guys that are the stars,

442
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 1: right Rory Justin, Thomas, Jordan, speech Perpepco or whatever. But

443
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: they also have like this partner who's their caddy that

444
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: has a unique relationship to it all. And then they

445
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 1: all have these intertwined relationships with each other because they're friends,

446
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 1: but they're all competing for the pot of money. And

447
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: like there's legacies and history and every single week is

448
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: a new venue, right like in football or basketball, or

449
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: you know in baseball, the the the stadium, like the

450
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: dimensions of the parks chain, so that that would be

451
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: a little bit different. But football, every single football field

452
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: looks the exact same, right. That's what kind of made

453
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: F one cool is like every week it's like, oh

454
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: they're in Monaco, Ah, there in Austin, Like they're kind

455
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: of different setups. One golf, every course is dramatically different,

456
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: and obviously the majors and the players are just such

457
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: big events that I think this Netflix series, if it's

458
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 1: done well, and I'm gonna assume it's gonna be done well,

459
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: has a chance to be pretty awesome. Now, one thing

460
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: that's key, and I think this was a huge key

461
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: in in Hard Knocks being a huge success, and if

462
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: you watch The F One, it was a big part

463
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: of it. You gotta have guys kind of take off

464
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: the governor and be willing to just kind of be real.

465
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: And part of being real is talking a little shit

466
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: and it'll be very very interesting. Like to me, the

467
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: one guy who I think will have no problem talking

468
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: ship will be Kepta. He'll say what every thing is

469
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: he does not care, but well, the rest of the guys,

470
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 1: like I know, Justin Thomas, I'm sure has opinions on

471
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: different things, on different players, on pace of play, on

472
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, certain guys, you know the way they're viewed.

473
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: I would love it if he just let it rip

474
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 1: or some guys like that. That would be awesome, And

475
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: that is how this show, to me explodes. But if

476
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: it kind of stays in this PC, they're all kind

477
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: of pretended to be friends, and there's obviously some of

478
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: these guys are legitimately friends, but everyone's koomed baya and

479
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: it's kind of fake. I think it'll have a ceiling.

480
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: Guys like me, if you're listening to this and you

481
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 1: love golf, we're watching no matter what. But to get

482
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: other people in, Like my mom loved Hard Knocks. I

483
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: can't even imagine the random people didn't know nothing about

484
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: F one. They just watched F one. Because you have

485
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 1: owners talking about other drivers, you have drivers talking about

486
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 1: other crew chiefs. It was sweet. It was none of

487
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: these guys care. Now it's a little smaller of a group,

488
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,959
Speaker 1: right there only twenty drivers, but like the PGA Tour,

489
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: let's face it, there are like thirty guys that really

490
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: really matter. The rest of them are kind of rotating,

491
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 1: and that's that sounds like I'm diminishing, Like how hard

492
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: it is to be in the top one. I think

493
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: I was texting with someone who, uh, you know, was

494
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: a fringe kind of PGA tour layer, corn ferry guy,

495
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 1: and he's now doing some media stuff, and I was like,

496
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's never been harder to crack the lineups.

497
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 1: Like listen, Tiger Woods, to me is the best golf

498
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: of all time, and it's probably one of the most

499
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: dominant athletes at his individual sport I'll ever seen in

500
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: my life. But if you look at the crew that

501
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 1: he was beating, you know, it wasn't that great. Pretty

502
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: top heavy. There were some sweet dudes at the top right,

503
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 1: Ernie VJ for a second, Duvall Retief had some moments,

504
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: Potty Harrington had some moments, But like this crew of

505
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: guys and I if you put peak Tiger today, he's

506
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 1: easily the best player in the world. I watched a

507
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: lot of Tiger Woods over COVID. He was He's the

508
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 1: best all around player you'll ever see, best driver, longest driver,

509
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,120
Speaker 1: best iron player ever. Uh, easily the best Putter we've

510
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: ever seen when it matters most. His short game was

511
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 1: before we got the chipping yips, was elite, and he's

512
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 1: the greatest clutch player. He was the best at literally everything.

513
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: There was nothing he couldn't do and dominate at. Where

514
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 1: now it's like a little more spread out. But the

515
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: crew of guys and he inspired this crew, it's just

516
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: better than ever. Right, It's just that's a fact that,

517
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: you know, the top thirty guys in the world right

518
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: now are better than the top thirty guys in the

519
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: world in O two. This the depth is better now.

520
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 1: I think this Netflix show can really kind of put

521
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: that under a microscope and make these guys kind of

522
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: make or break them, right, I mean they're already the

523
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: top guys, already making so much money. I just mean

524
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: make them more universal. More Just like if I just

525
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: walked down the street and I just started bullshitting with

526
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: a sports fan. We can talk about Patrick Mahomes, right,

527
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: they would know who Bill Belichick is. If I just

528
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 1: brought up Justin Thomas, more likely they're not gonna know

529
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: who he is. Right in hell, I can bring up

530
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: Jordan's speech or John rob They're not you know, for

531
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: these guys and that sport to make the next step.

532
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: And I really think that's possible because there is nothing

533
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: like it's just easy TV in the back. You know,

534
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 1: if you like baseball, you like something slow, this is

535
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: you can't play baseball once you're like done with high

536
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: school or college, Like no one plays. I guess you

537
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: could play like inner mural or beer league softball. But

538
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: you can play golf. And here's the other thing with golf.

539
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: You can literally play it to like you die. It's

540
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: the one sport you can play in your sixties, your seventies,

541
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: you're in the eighties. You can be good at it

542
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: in your forties and the fifties. Like it's how many

543
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: people do you know, like in their fifties they're like, yeah,

544
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 1: I'm the best tennis player in the city. Not many, right,

545
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: But you can meet a lot of guys that can

546
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 1: shoot eighty eighty golf that are fifty five years old

547
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: and then enjoy it. Something to do with your friends,

548
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: something to get outside. And uh, I am very very

549
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: excited for this Netflix show. Though little cautiously pessimistic. It

550
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: could disappoint, but I really hope these guys just don't

551
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: worry about you know, the b s and the fluff

552
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: and just just let it rip. Just be yourself. If

553
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna talk a little shit, do it. It'll be

554
00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: great for business. Subscribe to the podcast Will This Rolling Again?

565
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: nothing like the West Coast Swing. Then into the Florida Swing.

566

Speaker 1: I love Premasters golf. To me, the best golf of

567
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: the year is the West Coast Swing to the Florida

568
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: Swing up until the players and then obviously capped out

569
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: with Augusta, and then it's just kind of like trying

570
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: to make it to the majors. As the year goes on,

571
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: but the West Coast swing to the Florida swing is Yeah,
