Hey, 4Play listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcast, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Due to the fact that, you know, this podcast may may not be going through an illness. So I think that if I talk with a lot of the vigor that I sometimes come in with, I will just go into a coughing fit. So I'm trying to be as tame as humanly possible right now. Good morning. You may hear, as you may hear, not as you may see. Yeah, that's true.

You can't. Well, I guess if you're watching on YouTube. Oh, rats. We do have a YouTube page. We're over 100,000, Frank. 101,000. Thank you to all the competent listeners that went and hit the subscribe button. I really appreciate you.

I know there's hundreds of thousands of you out there that have not yet hit the YouTube subscribe button. The amount of people that could follow that thing is endless. And I'm talking to you, Ryan, Brian, Brian, Dan, Steve, Sydney, Sarah. Sarah. Go just hit, if your name's Sarah, Steve, Brian, Dan, Sydney, Ryan, go hit the subscribe button and send it to us. I like that. I think every time we do the show, we should do a random name roll call. And if your name gets called by the grace of God, you have to go and subscribe to the four. If your name is Finnegan, if your name is Finnegan and you haven't subscribed to the foreplay, like if you have the same name as a dog, you need to go subscribe to Foreplay. Don't criticize you a person.

You know, like, build them up a little bit. I know I'm going to get a message. Be like, yo, man, like my name's Finn. People call me Finn. It's a brutal name. But, like, you know, sometimes it's cool. But I subscribe to Foreplay and here you go. I'm going to go back and I'm going to get the names that we all just listed so we don't repeat them again.

And then I'm going to have a new batch ready for the next show. Yeah, it's a roll call. It's a call out. It's time for you to step up. Names are always a little tough because you don't name yourself. So it's tough when you get roasted for having a shitty name because you didn't name yourself. What percentage of the population overall changes their name when they become adults? Pretty low, right?

I don't know. I don't know. I think it's probably really low, but also like somewhat surprisingly common. Like I don't have any friends or family that changed their names when they became adult. Like, I feel like it's like someone knows someone that's done it. So it's like, it's not like out of the ordinary, but like the number is probably extremely low. Yeah. It makes any sense.

Like I feel like I knew someone that changed their name. But it was like they were like they had a crazy name from like Lithuania or something. Also a child. I feel like it's a childish thing that hate your name. And then when you become adult, you're more likely to be like, yeah, my name's fine. But when you're like a bitchy little 13 year old terrible shit. head person. You're like, my name sucks.

Yeah, I mean, like, also, like, I went to school. I had a friend that's name was like Ming Huang and his name. Like, he's like, just call me Brian. I was like, okay. Sure. That's his name. Like, oh. Dude, I think my brother's press school, his roommate was like something like that.

And then they just gave him the name like Skyler or something like that. They just like, they were like, nope. Like, we get that's your name. but like here and we're just going to call you Skyler. I don't know. I didn't really get the details on it because it sounds messed up on 80 different levels. But yeah, I'm going to drop that point right there. I'm just going to put that on the table and leave.

You just can't do that anymore. That's something you can't do anymore. No. It's not the same thing, but what is Andy Bernardi changes his name to Drew? Obviously, it's like a different version of. It's like I'm actually going by Drew now. Jim's like, nope. I mean, Chad Johnson just went to Ocho Cinco.

He legally did that. Yeah. That's a good point. Yeah, so I think that, you know, from time to time, we'll see it happen, but I don't know that that many people are going out. Tiger. Tiger Woods. Yeah, true.

Eldrick Taunt, now just Tiger Woods. What a name. What a name. I wonder if, I wonder if, um, Charlie will change his name to anything. He's got too good of a thing going. True. Owens.

That's another great thing going. Owens mixers. So we're doing transfusion Thursday. Get involved. Hashtag transfusion Thursday. Thursday is a great time to drink, especially in the wintertime. You know, your Friday is obviously,

people get jacked up about Friday. But I do feel like as an adult, you make your way through Thursday. You're doing pretty well. You like to celebrate a little bit. on Thursday afternoons, Thursday evenings. Friday's kind of a joke in the professional world in most professions. Like, yeah, you get some stuff done for sure. But Friday is no Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Thursday, you get through that puppy. You get through your workday.

You start cranking a couple transfusions, have yourself a great time, extend that weekend. And then Friday, like I said, it's kind of a joke. You can go through it hungover if you want to. Might even make it a little easier. So go to Amazon. You probably heard of Amazon. Very popular company. Doing very well, very successful. you can get the transfusion Owens on Amazon. You get next day shipping. If you have yourself a little Amazon Prime, it is a wow kind of moment.

And you can also go to Owensmixers.com, but they've got a lot of different options. Transfusion with real grape juice, with ginger ale is delicious. We all know that. We've established that. Make cucumber lime, grapefruit and lime,

make yourself a little lurchy paloma. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Very nice. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm.

Mm. That's just such a large drink. I'll tell you what, dude, grapefruit is one of the most underrated value adds to a cocktail that you can have. It's delicious. It's got a little bite. It's refreshing. It feels like you're down south. It's everything that makes this world great.

So go with a paloma. Enjoy yourself. Treat yourself. Treat yourself. Owen. So Transfusion Thursday, we're going to pick some winners. So you can win some stuff. Transfusion Thursday, you might get a little retweet.

You might get a little gift pack. Get involved. Thank you for the support. Thank you to Owens. And you can make a great cocktail. Really without having to do much, you just pour it in with liquor, the mixer. And boom, you've got an awesome cocktail. It's that simple.

So big things. People tag us in pictures of the transfusion all the time already. Might as well just throw a hashtag on it, Transfusion Thursday and wins and stuff. It'd be crazy not to. Also, we're on Facebook. So if you guys haven't heard of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg back in the early 2000. Can we pause there if you haven't heard from Facebook? Came up with this great idea, social networking, and really took advantage of it.

So if you're not familiar with the Facebook world, we are on Facebook. We actually have a very active chat. It's called 4Play 19th hole. And I will say our guys are in there and they just want to tell people about their golf life. Like these people, these followers of four player are in there. They're just posting like their shots from 2K. They're posting like pictures of where their ball lands on the green and being like, look at this fucking shot I hit into the seventh hole at this golf course.

So get involved because I've been in there. People are breaking down what's going on with us. They're conjecturing about tailor made. There were rumors going around beforehand. It's actually a pretty active little community, even though it's only been, you know, Facebook's new. So I think we have like two to three things. thousand followers are in there or likes what are they i don't know i don't know what the fuck you call

them on the platform i think i think a like counts as a follow in that world okay that's what i thought so anyways go to uh four point nineteenth hole on facebook i'm in there every day because i'm in quarantine i'm bored as fuck out of my mind so i'm in there just responding to shit that's going all the time so uh four play 19th hole frankie i'm a little concerned if he goes in there will never come out yeah i'm a i'm a big chat guy um i love the chat on youtube uh I missed the chat. We got to go live one of these nights. Yeah, I'll check out the Facebook group.

I kind of went through it a little bit, and it's very active. It's extremely active for the 2,000, 3,000 people that are already in there. So yeah, go join it. Let's get that thing going. It's a good place to, I mean, people are like saying, is this a good place for buddies trips? It is a really good community to get answers for golf stuff and gear and all that, tailor-made stuff.

So go check it out. Okay, Masters Tournament, Fred Ridley, Chairman, announced yesterday, I guess this is to be two days ago from when you're listening, that the Masters will have limited fans, limited patrons, pretty much expected. I mean, I think we all were hoping, you know, a year ago now, that like, oh, yeah, by 2021 Masters, like, it'll be fine. Not that way.

I will say I'm a little confused because, like, you know, I turn on some football games and it's almost a full crowd. I turn on other games, other events, and there's nobody in sight. I turn on one channel and it's fucking, you know, you can't be within 2,000 feet of another human being. You can't leave. Turn on another channel and it's just massive crowds overplay. So it's a little bit confusing, I must say. But the masters, I think, announcing they're going to have limited patrons sounds about right. Yeah.

I mean, did it? I'm sorry. Go, Chuck. All right. That's weird. That's a weird moment. That's tough. Well, no, I mean, when we do the virtual thing, it just happens.

It just, it's a nature of the beast. But when you- Take it away, take it away, Lurch. Frankie, shut up. So the timeline thing that when you said that, it actually jogged my brain to when the four of us dummies started to announce, like, when we think this is going to be over. I think we were saying like July, August of last year. And then obviously that's not.

true and it feels like not even this July or August it's going to be completely over. But the football game throws my brain into it dizzy because if you saw what happened after Bama's win and the streets of Roll Tide Nation, I mean, that was the most preposterous thing I've ever seen during this quote unquote COVID error. Sorry, Trent. Take it away. No, I was going to say something similar. The football thing seems very inconsistent.

I don't know. Like, there's definitely not a, there's not. one thing that they're going off of like this is how many fans you can have. But as far as the Masters having fans, I think we're finally in a place where as we move forward, things are at least supposedly getting better. Like I know if you look at the numbers, things are not great and that Alabama celebration after the championship wasn't great either.

But with the vaccine getting out there, I think like last year we really didn't know. At this time, well, at this time last year, we didn't know anything. But like once it all started, we really had no idea when things were going to get better. And now I think with the vaccine and people just with 10 months of knowledge on what goes on with the coronavirus, I think we are in a better place. So I think by April things will be better in this.

It will make sense to have fans, at least a few patrons at the Masters, when a year ago it just, there was no way you could have any fans anywhere. Yeah, I agree with that. And I mean, the, like by a lot of accounts, it's a little disappointed, like the vaccine rollout because they had put out numbers like 20 million at the end of December. That's not the case. But I will say, on the whole, as just an average human being like I am and like the other three of you are, the fact of they invented in less than a year an invisible fucking like warrior that goes inside of your body that fights off this other invisible warrior and doesn't allow you to get. infected with this horrible. That is fucking amazing. Yeah. I've thought about that before, too. Like, I didn't know anything about vaccines

before all this because I had no reason to know about them. But in my head, when this was all going about and they were, you know, contracting these companies to make the vaccines, in my head, I was like, well, what if they just can't do it? What if they go into the labs and they use the droppers and they mix all these chemicals and they come out the other side? and they say, oh, we can't do it. I've come to learn that they've kind of perfected this vaccine over the hundreds of years. And they can figure it out. It just takes, it's more about time than it is possibility.

But when you learn that they can just make a vaccine for something that is ravaging the globe, that blows my mind. And they did it in less than a year, like you're saying, Rick. Like, that is incredibly impressive. Dude, it makes me think, too. Imagine. Maybe they had the vaccine when they rolled out this virus, you know what I'm saying? be you want to put on a tin foil hat over here you're going to put on a tin foil hat over here what

are you doing no I was just trying to get a little Kevin Clancy on us um it is amazing I don't know how they did it in a year usually takes 10 right and what it makes me think then because of the world that we live in is like these motherfuckers went out there and they did all their little biology and they're expect and they're able to be so incredibly impressive that they just invented something brand new on a microscopic biological level that's going to save the world and ultimately, like, get us over a global pandemic in a year or two. And I can't figure out, even though the physics is right in front of me, to just hit a golf ball straight. Like, it's not, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, you can just watch a YouTube video and they just tell you how to do it. You can just watch a swing of Louis

Houston. He's got a pretty simple little swing. It's like, no, you just, you just bring the club back and then just drop it on this good playing and the ball will just go straight. And no matter what, I just can't do it. I'm fucking at the range. I got, you know, pro tractors, shout out Bryson. You got the fucking alignment sticks. You're trying everything on earth. And you just can't hit a golf ball straight to save your life.

And you got people out here that can do such amazing things if they just focus a little bit on it. And all we want to do is be able to play good golf and you can't do it. How is that possible? Well, I don't think this group of four is ever going to be trusted to solve anything important. So I think we just leave that to the better people the world and we trust those individuals because we seemingly can't do much well. Dude, I say it to my buddies all the time who have real like real jobs, we call it, where it's like they have to do things from day to day

to get stuff done for this country to like move on, right? Like big companies. Like my buddy has to input certain numbers into an Excel sheet. And if he just doesn't do that correctly, like something bad happens to this really big company. And like another friend's a PA. Like if she just doesn't like, if she doesn't do good work that day or like isn't that good at her job, like people die. So it's like, I don't know. To me, like when I'm like, when I'm like,

Well, like, I mean, I guess you could say the same, not the same thing at all, but like if if some, if I just put one of my friends in my seat in front of Dave Portnoy and he's like, do all this stuff and edit this piece review by six o'clock and then give me a schedule and get me on a plane at Miami. They're going to just cry and run home. Like there's no, like there is no way of doing that. Like I guess like our, our stuff in our company is what makes it go, right? Like we just don't do our job.

Like, Barstle doesn't get to where it goes. So I guess it's all relative to what you do. But I often think about that. I would say like, you guys have like jobs. Like real. Like you have to go to work. You have a boss that's like you got to get this shit done or else. Like we are fucked if you don't, if you don't succeed.

If you went to college for it didn't work and you now don't know. this formula and like this Excel formula and like you don't draft up how much money we need to spend on this like medical equipment our company's going under like that's on you Rob like what the fuck like this kid's got to sit there at his desk like uh gotta fucking do this or i've got buddies that have people that work under them and I'm like what do you tell them what do you what do you tell these people and what are they supposed to do like I like I just don't I don't understand they just Peter what's happening It is.

I think you're right that it is all relative to the job because parcel comes with its own, like its own challenges and whatever. But the real world, I'm very scared of the real world since I've been out of it. Really scared. Stuff's got to get done. It has to get done.

Do you guys have an incredible faith, like belief in humanity though, Lowy? I think some people are so impressive. Like some individuals that are able to create and solve puzzles are just wild. impressive people to me. Now, there's obviously some people out there that aren't as good, but, like, maybe the four of us. But, like, the fact that we can, you know, create the internet

is just amazing. The fact that we can solve for COVID and create a vaccine is just amazing. Like, it's amazing. And then probably it is a little frustrated where my brain power is just so limited and it stops because I couldn't solve either of those in a billion years. Just I'm grateful that people much smarter than me exist, if that's the question. I do look at the world sometimes, and I'm just like, there's got its problems for sure,

but you look out there and like, we're doing the best we can. You know what I don't understand? And it's like evolution. This may open up a whole can of worms. But like, I don't understand how for thousands upon thousands upon thousands of years,

humans were just like dumb survivors, essentially, right? Like they just lived. and then they hunted and then they just like why did it take like it we've only lived in this world for like what 60 years 70 years of like really fucking crazy making inventions of like internet and electricity type crazy shit and fucking going to the moon and like like why why 2,000 years ago was that not even an option it was the same same world, like same stuff was there, right? Like, I just don't get like why stuff advanced is so fast.

But it's like, why it gets to a threshold and then all of a sudden takes up? Like, why did they not wear helmets in hockey until someone was like, oh yeah, like concussions? Like, were they just dumber? Like a goalie didn't wear a mask. Like he didn't think like, oh, in 20 years, they're actually going to wear mass on their face. Well, no, but they also didn't raise the puck back then. So like goalies never got hit in the face, like ever. But they did.

Like there's that picture on like that. but that magazine where the guy, what's the one goal where his whole entire face is just reconstructed. Yeah, like very, very rarely. But it's just the game was so different. I think you could argue that about anything. And what I would say is like, dude, like 2,000, 3,000 years ago, like four or 5,000 years ago, they were building giant pyramids and shit that they still can't figure out how they built them. Like they were moving the, the gigantic amount of stuff they were moving and how they were, like,

elevating and they still are just like, we don't know how the fuck they did that. And like, in aliens. People go into Rome in like in in the time of like Roman antiquity. And it was just a giant metropolis of a city fucking 2,000 years ago. They could build that. Like that's pretty fucking nuts. Yeah, I think people have been innovative this whole time. It's just like steps.

And obviously the internet made us go a thousand miles an hour faster than we've ever like kind of innovated before. Because like Frankie, the goalies and masks and everything, it just took that one guy, Gary Chevers, the mask and he like faked having you know like um stitches on his face all over the place to create a mask for the nchl and then to riggs's point like building pyramids i mean that's like how the hell they ever did that is just amazing i know that there's been innovation for sure like obviously it's all relative to the time but it's just always blows my mind that like when it reached it's like when one i don't know how to explain like what i'm trying to say no i i hear you but like i think the internet just made like it took so of his

innovation it just removed the pockets of innovation so everybody now could communicate together yeah and work together in different ways you did you play roller hockey last night yes yeah i did good topic change yeah i did did did you buy a new helmet yeah i did i did you know you did yeah i did well my buddy works shout out to my buddy mike at pure hockey who just hooked me up with a bunch of stuff um really good store over here in long island but um yeah man i played hockey last my first time ever. It was, it was quite an experience. I, I really enjoyed it. I thought it was a lot of fun. My whoop was a 14.5 for the two hours. It was insane. 14, 14.5 strain is nuts. And it knew, the whoop just knew that I played hockey. It was crazy. I was surprisingly average. Like,

I was surprisingly just like, I blended in. Like, I went out there. I did my, I did, very short shifts because I got very winded. I'm talking 20-30 shifts. 20-second shifts. I was in and out. Like, I went up and down the ice, the rink once or twice,

and then I was like, forward and I just called for someone. But, you know, I got, the thing is I know how to play, like, I know the game of hockey from watching it my whole life

and playing some pickup hockey, like, to the point where, like, I know, like, where I should go. It's just a matter of, like, getting composure. I was a little bit too fast

and skating around too hard. And, like, I'm not the, I can't really stop that well on roller, blades like i'm learning how to do it you have to kind of ice stop in war rock you have to kind of like i haven't like committed to that yet because i know i'm going to fall my ass i mean yesterday was quite literally my first like structured game of hockey of my life and the fact that like i got through it was pretty impressive we lost probably because of me um we we like made a bad

line change and then i was too many men on the ice and we got a penalty and it was two two two and we lost three, like three, two, and then we pulled the goal, it was four to. So, like, that was probably me. Guys were, like, mad on the bench, like, this fucking kid, like, can't even make a line change. It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a scurry. It's like, ah, like, guys were coming off.

And, like, I was like, ah, I just jumped on. And there was, like, eight guys on the ice. I was like, ah, shit. I tried to get back. Like, no, you just have way too many. Like, you just got to put someone in the penalty box now. So, but, yeah, I got into the front of the net and shit. And, like, at one chance, I, like, like, the puck came off the back

and I kind of just like shoved it towards the goal. He made a nice save. Like I was there. I was in the right spots. I was lifting sticks on shots. Like I knew what. So you weren't the worst player on the team then. Maybe just because these guys been playing together forever.

And what I, so we're in the lowest division, but because not many rinks or any rinks are open just this one during COVID, every player on Long Island is coming to this league. And it's actually like a very competitive. Like we're in the D division and the guys are fucking dangling. The goalies were outrageous. Like the one guy played for like farm.

Birminghamdale State College or whatever they were saying. Like so I mean, it was it was good. I really like the guys I'm playing with, which I think is the most important part because I'm in, I'm like really happy to go back now like next Tuesday or in the next game. But it was funny. A lot of the guys like noticed like not like they were just like, oh, is that like Frankie from Barcelona?

And I thought I was going to get like a cheap hit or something. Someone was going to try and do something to me because the other team was going crazy. They're like one bite everyone knows where it was like under their breath and shit like saying things at the face off like circles and stuff. I was like someone's just going to slash me like I'm just I'm done but no it was good I got to learn to keep my stick down my buddy dan he just kept screaming that at me so that's that's an amateur thing I guess I was skating around with my stick up was it tough to breathe I remember I played roller hockey when I was a kid and like we had like a roller fun place here in Jersey and I was part of the river rats team but I remember like breathing in there I would leave there so exhausted because the air I feel like didn't circulate well at this place it's a really really really big place. It's got two rinks in there back to back.

Oh, wow. Huge. It's huge. So it's got two ranks. It's got like a bunch of stuff upstairs. The breathing was fine. Oddly they had like the heaters on by like where you got changed and stuff. Like they don't have locker rooms open during COVID, but it was weird.

It was really hot in there. But I, I ate Tripotle prior to my first game and I was burping up like southwest Mexican caninas during the game. I almost puked at one point. You know when you get like so winded that you feel like you're going to puke? like it was it's right there in your throat i almost puked multiple times on the bench i mean at one point i took a 10 second ship i was out there hockey's like hockey's like it's awesome like i got to learn how to breathe too because i was breathing through like my mouth the whole time and like it's just

it's dry and you get to the bench and you feel like you're at one point the like the lights were going out like it was just darkness was creeping in from right to left and i was like boy oh boy i am i'm out of shape you were reset in your cns like brice and de chambore you were resetting your cns like brice and Dechambeau. You're at the blackout. But then this dude sitting next to me is like this big Italian meatball. He's like, oh, you work for bar stools? I'm like, yeah. He's like, I don't know what's shit about you, but my son, my 18 year old son probably does. I'm like, bro, what are you doing out here? But then the guy's like the best defenseman on the team. He's like out there just stopping every single attack. He's just so calm, cool, and collected. So there's older guys,

it's younger guys. It was cool. I mean, it was fun. How do you know these guys? Just like, it's my girlfriend's cousins team that they've had forever and they like they just needed a guy they wrote on facebook um there's like an invention on facebook they were on facebook they were looking for a guy i like message them like hey i'd love to play it's only 10 minutes away from my house so it's really easy i had um i was using like brock nelson stick and so like everyone was just like look at this fucking kid showing up using like brock nelson stick like playing fucking beer league hockey and absolutely like falling all over the place out here so So, yeah, it was amazing.

Like, we had a Zoom meeting yesterday, and Frankie was telling these guys, because Lurch and Riggs obviously know more about it. And you had this helmet that apparently if you had showed up in, you were just going to get laughed off the ice. Oh, I did. It was a 2011 Reeboks street hockey inline helmet from back when I just played. It was bad. So I, you guys talked to me out of that.

Luckily, thankfully, you did, because I looked at all the helmets of the does on the team, and they were much nicer. And the one that I ended up getting was just like a Bauer white helmet with a black gauge. Perfect. Perfect. Really nice helmet. And then like I was at pure hockey and I'm talking to the guy, my buddy who works there. And I'm like, dude, I just don't want to stand out.

And he's showing me all the things that you could stand out with. Like he's like you could get a red helmet with a half shield and you could like hold like a mouth guard out of your mouth and like hold these really big have these really big red gloves. And like you can change like the colors of your laces to like yellow. and act like you're OVy and like then you just go out there and you're like a superhero and everyone kind of hates you but like you just get it done when I first got to the game the guys who were on the ice right before me that this guy was wearing just an islanders outfit a half shield islanders helmet islanders gloves I'm like who is this fucking guy he's out there fucking moving around like come on dude come on so yeah look out for me on

the outcast is our name oh the outcast the outcast cool little black You guys are in last place? We're 0-1-1. They actually lost a shootout the first game. So we're actually a pretty good team. It was more composed than I thought I was going to be. It was one-one for the longest time, which I thought was pretty cool. Like, I actually liked the fact that there's good goal-tending.

Like, I didn't want to show up and just be like 10-0. Like, you just get, like, routed. Like, our goalie was sick. Like, I was going up to him, like, I felt so cool. I was, like, hitting his pads. Like, after his same. Lert, you love that shit. I was, like, hitting his pads after his save.

I don't even know his name. Like, I was, like, I was, like, like let's go like let's go tender like it's like let's fucking go right i mean hockey's the best dude i mean yeah like it's also so exhausting i remember like if i ever play goalie now and there's like a power play in our zone and we're on a penalty kill and you have to be like in a crouch for two minutes or whatever i am i come up after that winded like sometimes i go down to a knee if i can play goalie anymore like it's a mess but i just love the thought of you being like a little six-year-old and going like like he freezes it and you go tap his dad's be like nice serious

of kendi and then my favorite image of that is like if the goal is like any good like you're saying he's like looking at the face off and then you're like wobbling with your stick like getting your like right wing spot you know like that is just good no i actually um the best thing i did and we can end at this the best thing i did was i when we had a face off i did the the slow creep in so well it would blow your mind like i was like a right wing and let's say like i would like skate around a little bit and then i'd slowly creep in to right when the fucking ref dropped the puck because i've seen that on tv so much like i did that little bend over and then i i i found my lane right next to the other guy and the other team so perfectly that i actually think someone was like complimenting me on the other

team like oh frankie looks good at here perfect for you a little pizza stop actually yeah yeah because you like bring your blades together and then stop exactly yes yeah and then one thing i did that was maybe the best i'll ever do is i came down the left on the left side and I saw one of my teammates on the right on the right boards and I flung it around behind the opposing net and I hit him there and it started a nice offensive zone time. It was a nice. It was I got to learn the game of hockey. I watch the game. You got to learn where to be.

So it's exciting. You also you got to learn dude in hockey. The simple skills are the most important. So literally like I know like they bust Whitney's balls. You made too many tape to tape passes. Like dude, if you can make a good solid 10 foot tape to tape. pass to your like teammates with speed, you'll be a massive asset to your team.

And what you get like even like Lurch and I would laugh because on our men's league team, like some of the guys that are more skilled are the biggest idiots out there and they cost your team goals all the time because they just do stupid shit and they don't understand. Like no, we don't need you to go end to end

and dangle through seven guys. We actually just need you to make a fucking eight foot pass to one of your better players with speed. And then that puck will come back to you and you end up scoring or getting chances all day long. It's infuriating when you get people that are actually skilled, but they're fucking idiots.

I noticed that the best players on the team were like the most composed with like, like I was going after a guy with the puck and I was going 100 miles an hour. And then I was like out of position. And these guys like just stayed like the left wing just stayed like kind of in his spot. And then like he would intercept a pass and just like give it to the center and then they'd go. But I was like making big turns and like flailing around. And I'm like just man, Like if I just do like 10% of the work right now, I'll be in the right position.

Like, what am I doing? It's all about positioning, not like going as fast as you possibly can. So I got to learn that. Yeah. Yeah. So Riggs, sorry, Trent, I cut you off again. No, I was, you guys know more about hockey. I was just to say the important thing he's got that heartbeat. You got that heart pumping.

That's what we're looking. Dude, I felt great. Like, I came home last night and I was like, I felt healthy. Like I was in the shower. Like, it was like 12 o'clock at night because it was a late game. like 950 we ended up like 11 and I'm just like sitting in the stand in the shower I could run a marathon right now I felt like a human being I felt like a human being I did wake up this morning like almost a little nervous about COVID up but I think it was like almost

like a workout hangover like I was just like out of it because I have if you look at my strain this is a little embarrassing I haven't gotten over on my whoop over a 4.5 in the last like two weeks and your last night was like a 16 so when's the last time you got a big workout months like a year and a half or something like yeah like a year yeah i mean so your body it's that's not that's not that's not coven that's your body i woke up like hung over i woke up like hung over yeah like legitimately hung over like my eyes hurt yeah my eyes hurt i was like oh boy i i bet tomorrow you're going to be very sore yeah also you had this chiropractor in the barstall office that was doing vibs lowering the bar and he cracked the shit out of my back which i love like i love going to

chiropractors, but I haven't gone in a while. And he's like, tomorrow you're going to wake up sore, which was yesterday. So the combination of waking up sore from a chiropractor, playing hockey for the first time in 10 years and working out for the first time in a year, yeah, today I'm hurting. That's good, though.

We've got the Sony Open this week. Full field, not like the Capilua situation, obviously. This is at Y-WI, really cool golf course.

I think that I talked to kids a little bit. He said it's playing really firm that it's not supposed to be windy, even though it's almost always windy there. This is the same course, same spot. you recall where they had the nuclear missile scare a few years ago, remember that? Oh my God, yes. God, that's crazy everything that happens and how much I continually forget. That was insane.

People, if you were in Hawaii at that time and you had a cell phone, you just got an alert that said, there's a missile coming your way, and there's really not much you can do. And it's nuclear, yeah. Yeah. Remember the guy there was that viral video of the guy, it was a guy on a golf, he was just out there walking and he was like,

this is the way I wanted to go. I was out here playing golf. This is what I wanted. And like you just can't do anything. At that point, we might have had this discussion when it happened. But at that point, I don't even know if I want to get that alert.

Well, no, because there's, I mean, if a nuke's coming and you're on a little island like Honolulu, you got zero options. So what's the point in knowing? Maybe you could text somebody that you love them. You know, maybe that's it. But yeah, I'd rather have peace. of mine, but dude, remember the footage people diving into like sewers and shit?

Like, try to... I mean, it turned out somebody who's hit the wrong button. Remember somebody just literally hit the wrong button? I just don't know how... I don't know if we've ever gotten like the full details of like how there's just a button to alert people that nuclear... Like, you'd think there'd be some sort of both keys at the same time, turn them. But to me, like, that's just a bad, bad, bad mistake that can't happen.

mistakes happen in life, that's something that can't happen. I mean, didn't people, like, die from heart attacks and stuff? Like, like, people, like, went into, like, they're, like, people went into, like, shock thinking that the world was over. Like, that's just not, that's not okay. It's not, it's not. I don't know, like, to have access to that button. That should have to go to, like, 30 levels, like, up to, like, the president or, like, right below. Like, if the fact, what we know is very limited.

I don't know if anybody died or anything like that. but the fact that somebody or like it's like a, you know, associate manager type like execution of like said button is outrageous. Well, it should and it shouldn't because like it's a pretty urgent thing. So you can't be like we got to go through 37 levels. Then what's the point of the button? Right, right. I guess we're right.

I'm looking at the alert right now because it's got a whole Wikipedia page about it. It just says emergency alert, ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii, seek immediate shelter. This is not a drill. Oh my God. That's scary than that. What does anybody do in this room? I think I just lay down.

I don't know what I do. I try and like survive. I like go to a basement or something. Baseball. I go oh fuck, oh fuck the whole time. And I just like kind of like get my family into like the like the bathroom. Aren't she supposed to go into the shower or is that tornadoes? It was three years ago exactly today.

I don't want to sound like a weirdo there. You guys don't understand. Like, you never heard that. Supposed to go into the shower. I've heard of that because there's no windows in the bathroom. Windows. You got to stay away from windows because radiation.

Yeah. That's kind of the goal, I think. Oh, I thought, and if windows break, you don't want to get hit with glass. Totally. I think it's a combo. But I do believe you want to stay away from windows. You want to be in, like, even you can find, like, a concrete staircase or something in the middle of the room. Do you want to be in the basement?

though because like what if like things crumble on top of you well that was tornadoes tornadoes you go in the basement if your house has a basement there's basements are very common to the Midwest because there's so many tornadoes that you just go down in the basement and you just you know nothing's going to get to you i mean it might rip your house apart unfortunately but you'll be fine down the tornadoes not attack the the ground really it just stays up top yeah got you yep interesting yeah in the Midwest we have tornado drills like it's usually like the first Monday, I feel like, of every, every month, you have literally giant tornado sirens, and then you would go down into the basement. And during a tornado warning or a tornado drill,

you would sit in the basement up against the wall where the windows are because you have like the ceiling or kind of like the really high windows in the basement, you know, so that in theory, the glass would blow over you and onto the other side of the room. And your family would like sit up against the wall. That's pretty crazy. Tornadoes are no joke. Yeah, and Cedar Rapids, it was the first Wednesday of every month they test the sirens and there was there's like a there's a baseball field close to where I grew up right basically right next to the house where I grew up and there was a siren on one of the posts and at the first Wednesday of every month it would just blare right into our house and it was yeah I mean they test them every month because there was the tornadoes are

obviously very common in the Midwest they're scary man they're very very scary um okay you got some stuff to get into for the year. I did mention last week that we were going to do kind of 2021 go through predictions, talk through kind of the year, just some general questions. One of the questions that I had was like, will Augusta National have fans? And then it comes out limited. So the answer is very easy. They're going to have limited. Another question I had, will Jordan speed win a tournament this year? No. Yep. I saw he made a change. I don't know if it was true.

I saw a Twitter rumor that he made a change that he went to Butch. It was a weird thing because I'm, he was, I saw that he was working with Butch, but then I've seen all clarification since, including Butch himself, Instagram that like, it's not true. So I think that which was like taking a look, but ultimately he's not really working with Butch. And then I saw a few people had some good points on Twitter where they're like, why is I? always so secretive and like, why can't, why can't the coach thing in golf just be straightforward? Why is it always so weird? Like, Tiger's always been weird about it. I feel like speed, like these guys are weird about who's technically working with it.

It's like, why can't they just be up front about exactly what's going on with the coaches? Why has it always got to be a weird secretive thing? I would love to know how that works. Like, the fact, because it sounds like Speed visited them and then Butch rejected it from what I saw, but I don't like, now does Butch have the power to do that? Like, is he that? I don't think he rejected it. I think Butch was just taking a look.

I don't think he was like, the breakdown that I got was that, like, Butch was just at one point, maybe they're in the same place or whatever. But Bush was like taking a look at Speath's game, but that like Cameron McCormick and everything was still, that's still his team, butch was just taking a look. Not that like Butch rejected him. But all the reports were that like Jordan Speed has Butch Harmon looking at or working with his game,

which would then signify that like, Speed has moved on. He's gotten rid of Cameron McCormick. He's not doing this hardcore technical thing that everybody in the world's freaking out about. And instead, it came out that, like, the latest interpretation I've got was, again, that Butch was just like taking a look. I don't know if it was just circumstantial if they were in the same place. I don't know. Butch was just like taking a look. And then, but there's no like formal change to Speed's coaching lineup or whatever. Well, then you got to wonder, like what is it, what's actually happening in his camp.

Like when he goes to see Butch, what does McCormick actually think about that? Like, and I think of the reason it gets weird sometimes is you have to be sensitive to your current coach if you are thinking about making a change. And I feel like that causes strike. But if he's just, Butch is just taking a look and McCormick is still on the team, then it's, if it's clear to all those people what's going on, then it's not that big of a deal. but obviously like the the scuttle butt starts where it's like oh is he moving on to butch what's McCormick think is McCormick mad like is it a divorce like it's just I don't know what's what's really going on yeah this all just cements my idea that he's not going to win a tournament this is just more mental mental craziness in the spieth world who's coaching him what's he going to do is he's

changing his swing the guy already can't get it done with a with a consistent current coach coaching plan. He's just a mess. I want him to win. I don't want a world in which Jordan Speed isn't a contending golfer. But I just think with how much, how good the competition is right now, I just can't picture any tournament or me going to any tournament this year saying Jordan Speed's going to win this one.

Like there are just so many other good golfers that have their shit together right now that I would pick over Jordan Speed. It's not even funny. I think he's going to play a ton of golf this year and I think he's going to win one. I think so too. Maybe it's at the John Deere. Maybe he returns his glory at the John Deere. That wouldn't be fair.

Can we say that if he wins the John Deer, it's not a real tournament? Well, I was a PJ Tour tournament, my friend. I mean, that's like, you might as well join the fucking Eisenhower red amateur local men's botchy club than golf tournament. Might get a free beer out of it, finding a Borrell. Maybe. I'm just saying that's not a real fucking tournament. You're not a real tournament, dude.

You know what I mean? True. You know what I mean? He's not, I don't, I don't see him winning one. Even, I just don't see. It's like, maybe, like, do we record these? We should get these on paper. Whatever all our takes are, we should have a little tally.

Make a tally large. I will. I think he's going to win, obviously, again. So it's like, why wouldn't it just, he got a whole year? Like, what tournament was the last year? Was it the PGA where he said, when I'm standing over the, ball. I don't know where this thing's going. That's not a guy who's going to win in the next 12 months.

He said, yeah, he said that, that was tough, that wing foot. He's like, I can't tell you how uncomfortable feeling it is standing over the tea, over the ball on the tea at the U.S. Open and having no idea where it's going. It's like, yeah, that's, you don't want that. But he's got a whole year. That would be a year and a half difference. Trent, are you a yes or no, quickly? So I can make my tally.

You're a no. Okay. So Riggs and I are in favor. Trent and Frankie are no. Will Ricky Fowler win this year? No. No. I'm going to say yes, but I don't even want to root for it. But I'm going to say yes. You're just just for the tally sake or? For the tally sake, for winning and losing, for, you know, four-play pride. If you genuinely thought he was going to lose and not win, then like you'd want to put in what you actually think is like that's. No, I think he's going to win. I just don't know.

I'm not a foulor guy. Okay. Don't like Ricky Fowler? I'm not a huge fowler guy. He's not on like the top of my list of my people I root for each week. Yeah, but there's now you genuinely don't want him to win, you said. No, no, I didn't say now you're throwing words at me. I never said that.

There's just other people. I think I heard you say, I think I heard you say the word genuinely twice, actually. Nope. I'm just kidding. I genuinely don't like you guys in the way you're throwing words. at me. Well, this, we've had the back and force on this podcast about him in terms of how he feels about this podcast. And I think that's where Lurch is coming from. I've said no to the first two. I have a yes coming up if the question is going to be asked. I just want you to know that.

I'm a no on Fowler. So I'm the only yes guy on Fowler, huh? Well, it looks like I'm a huge Fowler fan in my eyes. Will Dustin Johnson win a major? Yep. Hmm. Yeah. I'm going to say yes. It's not going to be the Masters. I think that he really, really took advantage of a different Masters this year.

I think guys are going to come to play come April. I think it's going to be a totally different field, totally different leaderboard come this upcoming months, the next one. I do think that Dustin Johnson, if he continues to play, even slightly what he was doing towards the end of this year, he is going to go on a hell of a run. And he's also a team Taylor-Ma-guy. I mean, we've seen him up close what he can do. If he can even come close to hitting the ball,

as good as he was hitting it when we were with him, he's going to win maybe all the majors. But yeah, I do think that he wins. I think he wins one. And if I had to guess which one, I'd say it would be the U.S. Open. Wow, little Tori Pines. Yeah, I do think he.

I do think he. Yes, for him as well. He wins a major. Do you think he, you think he repeats at Augusta? That wasn't a question. I'm going to say no to a repeat, but I think he wins a major this year.

Yeah, I'm going to say, I don't think it's crazy, but I think the odds are, I'm taking he wins one out of four, not picking the one that he wins. So I'm going to take DJ wins a major, yes. And Trent, you're a yes too? I'm a yes, yeah.

And this was interesting, but I think Moral gets another one, and I think it might be the Masters. Wow. Wow. I know we're talking about Team Taylor made things, but like I just, I just, I love Colmore Cow so much. He's so mature that I think he, I think it's time he's going to, he's going to win that

one. I got a good one for you guys. Tyler Woods is going to win the Masters this year. That'd be great. I got a good one for you guys. The current world top five at the beginning of the year was, I don't know if it changed in the last week, I doubt it, but it was Dustin Johnson Johnson, John Rom, John Rom, Justin Thomas, Roy Macroy, Bryson.

Deschambo. Who of those five won't be in the top five at the end of the year? Well, the note taker is now scrambling. Hold on. Will you repeat that question? Lurch, this is going to be recorded and we'll have it forever. Right. I don't get why you're doing that. Like, it's literally just

on record forever. You're asking us to repeat something that literally just got recorded on the internet. And the show is not for your tally. The show is for people listening. So if you ask them to repeat it, it's actually harms the show. Well, I bet you there's one person out there, maybe Finnegan, who missed that question. And he can just hit back on the 15 second thing and he just hears the question. It's not live.

You know what's crazy is I think the most likely person to not be in that top five is Rory McElroy. No, I disagree. See, that was going to be my yes. I think Rory McElroy is going to win a major this year. Wow. I think Rory McElroy is going to come to play in 2021. This fucking guy has the skill. And just like Jordan Speed has a skill, I get it.

it's somewhere in that brain, but Rory's still there. Top five. This guy can play still. He is a gamer. He's going to get it done. Rory Maceroy does not make the money that Rory McElroy makes, does not have the life that Rory Maceroy has. He's not who Rory McElroy is without being Rory Macquarie if that makes it sense, like any

sense. Like he is a fucking superstar and he's going to just be that this year. He's a superstar. We're not talking about Rory McElroy now. He's a superstar. He's Dustin Johnson. He's Tiger Woods at times. Like he is, he is that guy.

He's that boy, Trent. And he just needs to get back to that fucking level. Okay. Once he tastes it on that Irish tongue, that northern Irish tongue, once he tastes it, he's going to go fucking crazy. That exact same sentiment everyone has had for the last six years. Fine. Everyone has felt, and he's won big tournaments.

He won the players. He's been playing great. He's still in the top five. But the way you feel right now about Roy McElroyd is the way we've all felt the last six years. All right, well, it's an odds game. And one of these days, he's just going to do it. It's an odds game.

Like, Roy, Roy ain't going anywhere. Rory, Rory didn't get his fucking powers sucked up into a pumpkin. He's fucking still Rory McElroy. You're talking to me like I'm not the biggest Roy guy on the show. Yeah, I don't think you are the biggest Rory guy in the show. I think I just overtook that. I want it to happen. It's just, we've had this, I feel like it's Groundhog's Day every year with Roy,

where it just doesn't happen. Rory's going to win a major this year, and we're going to be fucking happy about it. We're going to be like, this fucking guy is back on top. He's going to win a major this year. Brooks. Kepka has won four majors since the last time Rory won a major. Brooks ain't going to win one this year. Brooks falling off my pedestal pretty quickly.

Like he's just like a, don't you guys agree? I don't think about Brooks anymore when it comes to these things. I don't know what. Like I do, but he's not, he's not the Brooks of Lerner. last year or 20 you know what I mean like of 2019 he's just not I don't know like he got hurt he's out he was out for a while he missed a couple tournaments just he's lost that edge to me it does seem like life's pretty good for him and maybe that like focus isn't there which I think isn't the worst thing like you know they're enjoying life their people I think that goes to Rory as well I think like he's just

he's in a good spot like life is good for him and it's not like golf is the sole purpose. I do think Rory probably slip, if there's one person of that top five, I would say it's probably Rory that slips out of the top five. See, I think to your point where you're like, Brooks is living life right now, I think Rory lived life for the last couple of years and he, like,

slipped into I'm Rory Macaroy World. I think Brooks is in that right now. I think Rory's like not happy with being Rory Macaroy world right now. I think he's like fine with being top five, making money, winning a couple tournaments. He wants to be the best of the best. Like I think, I think

his little like parade around life is over and he wants to he wants to dominate again it's too like you're like trend saying it's five six years now he's got to win a fucking major i'm gonna say i'm gonna say roy does not win a major this year um i'm gonna say bryson bryson and rome are not in the top five at the end of the year oh that's crazy i think i think rams a lot to stay that. I know he's on going based off his terrible equipment switch. So I'm just, I don't, I think that's going to be. I agree with that. It's really difficult to overcome playing that inferior equipment. And Bryson, that's obviously a very interesting decision to make whether or not somebody in the top five. I don't, I don't want an injury to happen. Nobody wants an injury to

happen. But that blackout comment made me think even more that this guy is just overwork in his knees and his back and his brain and I just worry and that's been the worry ever since he put on all the weight but and it hasn't happened yet thankfully but boy he's putting so much stress on that body so often that the only thing that's going to knock him out of top five is an injury it does does bryson even make it through 2021 this should be the question whether it's like a mental hiatus that he has to take or something like does he even make it this season. Like we have a full year of Bryson being outrageous Bryson. Who knows what's about to happen with that? Like, I mean, come on. The guy's a fucking ticking time bomb. He's just been

redlined for 18 to 20 months. That's crazy. Like, you know the scene in Fast and Furious where the first one where Paul Walker is in the eclipse and he hits the Knaz and the car breaks down and the floor bottoms out and like the car breaks down? That's sort of. That's sort of, of where I feel where we're at with pricing. Exactly. I will say this, which is amazing. Like, so I took, you know, those, that list was because we were going to do it last week. Since then, so in one week, Zander has moved to fourth, Kyle Morikawa has moved to fifth, Bryson is sixth, and Rory is seven. So like, my thing was not, you know, I, it is hard to look at those five names and be like, well, these guys aren't.

But how often do you think the same five guys are in the top five at the beginning of like, like never, that has to never happen. So clearly there's going to be shuffling and it's hard to pick, like, it's hard to pick ROM. Like he, that's a very risky choice. But I don't know. I don't know. I'm just going to pick Rom.

I'm going to pick Bryce and I'm going to pick Ron will not be in the top five. I'm sticking with Rory. Okay. Unfortunately. Rory for me as well. You right? I'll say Bryson out of it. Will Tiger Woods win a tournament?

Yes. Yes. He's a storybook player. He's a storybook human being and his story's not ended yet. He just figures it out. There's no analytics. There's no statistics that know what a mid-40s bad back surgery-filled man can do when he's Tiger Woods. There's no book on that.

Like most people at this age with his injuries, injuries, they just say no chance, but they, that's not Tiger Woods. Sorry. You're just not going to get too many shots at it, you know? No, I know you're not. Like, how many tournaments does he play this year? Joey likes the way he looks. He liked the way he looked at the end of the Masters.

He says that he's got a really good 2021 coming up if you can say. I think he does. I think he wins a tournament. I'm going to say yes because I don't want to be the guy who says no. I'm very much hoping that it happens. The entire golf world is hoping that it happens. Watch your fucking tone right now when you finish the sentence. The only thing I worry about is what everybody else worries about is he plays a limited amount of tournaments.

And he has to do so much to get that body ready for every tournament and then play four stellar rounds of golf that like I'm I hope it happens. But as you get older and as that body gets older, the odds are definitely stacked against it. The odds for who though? A regular human being? A fucking muggle. A guy who has to wake up at three in the morning to. get ready for. Yeah, but that guy, what's his name? His name's Tiger Woods. That's my point. It's like you're comparing it to mere muggles. Got like regular dudes that at that age with that

back pain that have to wake up at that time to get ready. Those are regular fucking dudes. Those are guys who grab the fucking newspaper from the news rack and go in fucking crunch numbers in their cubicle. This is Tiger fucking Woods. This is Tiger fucking Woods, the best that's ever done it. I said, yeah. He sets the bar for what. guys at his age with his back pain do he sets the bar it's never been done yet making a lot of sense right now he sets the bar i said yes the book it's literally like if you're reading like a history book the book is halfway like it's still being written each day with tiger woods you get that there's nothing there's nothing to reference get that reference page oh hey don't don't you mans

you manned tiger's playing you right now a little tiger splaining it we we know that you man's playing to Liz Gonzalez a couple years ago. I did not manned to Liz Gonzalez. No idea. You literally said, do you get that to me and her? I said yes. So I think he's going to win. I'm just the other side.

Liz Gonzalez said that it was better to be a Yankee fan the day that we lost the playoffs than it was to be a Red Sox fan. I said, that's just incorrect. They're on their way to the World Series. We have a minute. Do you get that? But that's just the way I talk. I'm like, do you understand? I would say it to anyone. I'd say it to fucking

whatever, Gandhi. My favorite part of that clip, and if anybody hasn't seen it, it's somewhere out there, is Jared Karabas is on the screen, and he bails out like the bill of fire. Oh, man. I'm saying yes to Tiger Woods.

I just wanted to get the other side of the coin because that's what people are going to set. Now, I'm saying I'm rooting for him, but he's not going to win a tournament this year. Okay. Record that. Do you record that on your tallies? I can't keep up with the top five questions.

So you're just going to eat crow, as they say, when it comes. No, because I just said I'm rooting for him wholeheartedly. No. You don't get it both ways. You don't get it both ways. Yeah, I'm competitive. I'm here to be the top, you know, guesser here. You need to sleep in 2021.

You made your bed. You got to go sweepies in it. That's fine. And I'm rooting for him to win. No, you're not. You're quite literally a competitor who wants to win this tally off. You are rooting for him to lose that tournament, the tournaments. Yeah, you are.

but I'm more of a fan boy as well. Doesn't matter then you should pick him to win a tournament. Well, I didn't. All right, so, can't have it both ways. You will eat crow.

The U.S. opening up to you, medium, the U.S. Open editorial obviously be electric. Oh, my God. E.

Electric. I like it. I want people to guess what rank Matthew Fitzpatrick is in the world right now. First off the top of the dome,

he is Matthew Fitzpatrick is, oh, man, actually I don't want to go first. I want to say he. I'll say 24. Oh, I was going to say 26. I was going to say 37. 16. Woo!

Yeah. Dude, I looked that up. I was stunned. Like, our boy, he did win. He won that orb thing. Yeah. Yeah, right, with the staff, the wizard staff. But 16th in the world for our boy, I'd higher than I would have guessed.

Yeah. We got to get Matthew Fitzpatrick back on the show because, like, I got to talk. We have to check in with him every so often. Yeah, Andy's had the, you know, he like attacked Bryson since the last time we had him on the show. Yes. We have to make sure he's still our boy. He has become every time I was watching the Gulf of the other day. And every time Bryson gets brought up, Matthew Fitzpatrick also gets brought up.

He has become the token guy who he's the only guy who, he's the only guy who, said a sort of negative thing about Bryson. So he has now become the guy who gets mentioned anytime Bryson gets brought up. And I'm not sure if that's fair or not, but he's definitely that guy. Yeah. Poor fella.

Poor little bloke. That's such a different body type than Bryson. So it's like perfect to have that as like the one two punch. When you say something like you. It's like at any moment you could just snap me into like oblivion. But so could Bryson to Matthews Patrick.

But in like, regular, you know what happens is like society and the world we live in allows people like me and Matthews Patrick to kind of talk our shit because like you're just not, you're just not going to touch me. More so ever than today than more so today than ever. Maybe in like, yeah, maybe in the 1930s if we're fucking like on the, on the line building Ford cars and I say like, hey, you fucking fat ass, you're just going to, you're going to murder me. You're going to murder me.

your head and slam it off the conveyor belt. Yeah, so that's just, now did I get that timing right? What was the conveyor belt? Early 1900s. So 1930s, that was a little too late then maybe. Too late, yeah. Model T, I think that was like 1905 or something like.

Maybe I could be early on that. Right, you're perpetually the sibling who is as close to lurch as you can get being like, I'm not touching you. I'm not touching you. Yes, exactly. And then he, and then he, fucking pushes me into like the kitchen. I go sliding into something and then I go,

Mom! That's so true, man. You play that character well. Store.orgal sports.com. Click on the golf link. Go to Foreplay. We've got a lot of good options. We've had them in there for a while now. But if you don't recall, we have Peter Malar items. We have hoodies. We have golf accessories, head covers, all kinds of good stuff. And now we added the most lurch item full time, which is a vest hoodie thing that somebody responded and I laughed out loud and it just was like, took about an hour.

And then I saw a reply tweet that just said, this is the most lurch merch item I've ever seen in my life. And it did come to merch. It's a great. I will say it's a great product. Well made. Made in the U.S., I think. But yeah, the hoodie vest is a combo that I've never seen before until this product. it's it's comfy and it's warm so you know go get a vest with a hoodie and look like me i guess i don't

know i think it looks good i think it looks great i think it looks cool what's the purpose behind like it's it's almost like what's the word it's like an oxymor is it an oxymoron or what's the thing where it's like they can try to stay warm but you have no sleeves on so it's right right right it's a paradox paradox is that it but that now now to the point of buying this thing it's a trend center. Like you walk around with this thing on and people are asking questions. They're like, what is that? Where'd you get it? That thing's pretty cool looking. I would say too, the sleeveless move in golf is huge because you still have your mobility, even though your main torso remains warm. I guess the, I guess the idea of a vest is what I'm kind of saying anyway,

right? Like it's a limited amount of fabric. It stops at your arms. but it keeps you warm. So I guess, like, the idea of a vest has always been that. But we all wear a vest because they look good. Well, there's different temperatures, too. And, yeah, and they're easy to wear on the golf course. This actually is a good product now. And, like, you know what it's perfect for?

You know what this fucking thing's perfect for? The day we were at Tor, yeah, the day we were at Torrey Pines. We haven't talked about that. It's okay. You can talk about it, Frank. Man, that was just like, that was a moment where I didn't know what I was saying. We were at Tori Pines. we're doing a little bit of filming for behind the greens U.S. Open, the whole thing.

We're out there, beautiful fucking property. We met Bill, the superintendent. The whole team over there is amazing. Can't wait to get back out there. But this product right here, this, what's the company called? Silo golf. Solo golf. Solo golf.

Solo golf. They, when you're at Tori Pines, especially in a time around January, it was like, what, 65 degrees maybe, 60 degrees. perfect temperature, a little bit of an overcast, and then all of a sudden, bang, some sort of storm rolled in, wind was picking up, I mean, it was fucking chilly. And if you're playing that golf course and you start off with like that 60, 65 degree, and it cuts down to like 50 with a little bit of a wind chill, you throw that hood up and you get that little, just like that protection on your neck, you immediately feel better and you feel like you're wearing something that's protecting you from a storm.

Then all of a sudden, 10 seconds later, it's the nicest sunset in the world. you take that hood off, it's back to 65 in San Diego, you're fine. You're just wearing a vest now. You're just wearing January attire. So it should be the official wearing of Tori Pines is the solo hoodie best. Well, and of science is to be believed most of the heat leaves from the top of your head, right? You know what they say. So that's a good way to keep all that heat in.

And, you know, you got your freedom to swing your golf club. Oh, look, we got a lot of options. We got a lot of items in there. The solo golf vest is one of them. and there's a ton more. So we got polos. We got hoodies. Like I said, we got quarter zips.

You can also go scour the entire site because we got hundreds and hundreds of items in there that are all really good things. So start out barstualsports. com. Thank you for the support. Will Xander Schauffley win a tournament this year? I think that's got to. to be a yes.

Yep. Yeah, I'll say yes. That's an easy one. He definitely wins one. I would put him up there as maybe the favorite to win a tournament this year. It's like him, DJ, it's just the top five, him DJ, JT. Oh, yeah, wow, really.

I'm going to say, yeah, obviously, I think. So then it would be like, does he win, does he win a major? I'm going to say no on that just for odds sake. Like I just think he's going to have a good year. Maybe he'll win a couple tournaments. Maybe he'll be a favorite going into one of these things. But I just like, I'm going to say no just for the tally because I just think it's harder to like one of these like odds already won't.

Then it becomes like if he's correct, I'm not, I'm rooting against him. If he's, you know, it becomes like if he's one of the most likely person to win a tournament, but wouldn't you wouldn't that just apply to, you know, so it gets tricky. Yeah, I'm just saying like just numbers right now. Like I'm just saying no just for the tally game. Like I just think no. He's got four chances. He's just not going to win one of them.

Yeah, I get, I get it. Okay. Plus Rory's one. I'm going to say, I'm going to say yes. He wins a major. I'm going to say Zander wins a major this year. I think if he has any chance to win a major, it's at Augusta. I don't know why, but I just.

think that like he had crazy buzz and then this year yeah crazy buzz crazy buzz going into it last couple years he's been in the mix he's got the line for it too he's got like the composure for it like mom is a ticking time on everybody knows that like he could blow up at any point literally rom will never win a master's wow wow wow i'd say zander wins one zander's gonna win a major this year i think he opens it up by winning Augusta. Wow. He's just got the, he's level.

He's one of those level guys. He's like Morikawa, too. Orkawa level. Those guys can win. Matt Wolf. Does Matt Wolf win a tournament this year? Pick it all my favorites. Yeah.

He wins one. How many tournaments do these guys enter? Between tigers. These guys will play 20 something, 25, maybe? I think Sun J.M. last year, two years ago, played like 35 tournaments. Yeah, that guy plays every fucking week. He does.

He's a machine. He is. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not to see the stats on like how, like, what, like how common is it for these guys to win tournaments each year? Not common. I mean, DJ set a record for winning, like, a tournament for the last, I don't know, 15, 20 years, whatever the case is. Yeah. Like, odds are these guys won't win one.

Is that what we're doing right now? Like, odds are that, like, Matthew Wolf will not win a tournament this year. Right. So it is hard. Like, I feel like the more we keep asking these questions, like, we keep saying yes to these guys that we think are going to be really good golfers. But I'm going to say no to Matthew Wolf winning a tournament. Right. Well, the odds are that they won't win.

But in the game of golf, the odds are that the best player is going to win. And these, we're talking about the best players. Yeah, right. That's right. Right. You know what I mean? So their bad odds just get a little bit better. Right.

I think that's correct. I'm going to say no, I'm Matthew Wolf, but I do like Matthew Wolf. I think he really grew on me when we did the Taylor Made video, like, big time. I think everyone's going to see that. I mean, he was fucking awesome with us, and that's going to be arguably, like, that, I think people are going to pick and choose what their favorite ones were. I think it's going to be hard to find a better video than us with Matthew Wolf. He was so fucking cool, man.

Which, the reason you're saying it like that is because you were not anti-Mat Wolf, but you said some things on the show, I called this swing like an ugly orangutan swing or something like that, comparing it to a beautiful swan of, or like something with his arms flailing. I couldn't remember what I said, but it was something, I said that he just had no,

he had no fluid motions. He didn't look good. I actually told that to his face during the video. It didn't really come out that good. I kind of like got nervous. I was like, I've talked some shit about you. Yeah, he kind of just ignored you.

Yeah, he did. I go, really? I just hit the ball. Yeah. I'm going to say he does win. I agree that it's getting ridiculous that I'm picking everyone to win, but these are the better players. So I'm going to say Matt Wolfe wins the tournament this year.

Work it down, Lurch. Yeah, because there's just going to be like a handful of like just regular dudes out there on the tour that win. You know what I mean? Like they're just tons. Tons of Brendan Todd winning. You know, it's like the guy drives at 260 and he goes out there and like dominates the tour for a month.

It's like what? Yeah, exactly. There's just so many good golfers. It just blows your mind how good these guys are. And like the difference between the top five and the top, you know, 100 week over week. It's just so small. Like Abraham and. Like Abraham Anster can just come in and just like win a tournament.

He's just a good golfer. Even though Frankie tried to cancel it after Tiger beat him. He should have quit the game of golf. I stand by that. you still grinding. Yeah. Yeah. Will a tournament get canceled this year?

No. It won't get canceled, but there will be like a significant, like maybe like something will happen where they were supposed to have fans and then like last minute they canceled that it will be a whole shit show. I do not think that anything will get canceled though. I think that the tour needs as much revenue as possible. They probably took a huge hit last year with no ticket sales and all that shit. No chance.

get canceled. I'm saying no chance. Yeah, I think they've got it figured out enough now where they won't have to press the red button on a tournament. Yeah, they'll have to scale some things back. It won't be, some tournaments won't be like, you know, how they used to be, obviously. But I don't think it takes something pretty bad for them to cancel a tournament this time around. Yeah, there's some fucking missiles coming our way or something. I don't think they're canceling it. Like that, this will be tough to listen back to if, like, we're now living in like a, like a war world or something in like six months we're on and like no chance um so yeah i i do think there's no chance yeah i don't i don't think if if something gets canceled we're in a horrible spot because that's

something else drastic has happened i think a better question for that like in that vein is do we ever get the full attendance this year no i don't think we get full attendance for three years like i i just don't know how you just like flip a switch i've said this a million times like about like how just like net like just because a calendar changed or maybe like like you're just going to like MetLife Stadium at a Giants game just going to have 100,000 people in it like just like just like the next year or something like I just we're going to have to slowly bleed into it I think I think it's going to be like 25% 50% every other seat like concerts are just going to come back like people are just going to be I want this so bad I want it so bad I want to go to a

football because it's outdoors yes it is I just don't know if you're going to see a grandstand and packed up at the fucking at Scottsdale, like for a fucking Phoenix Open or something. Like, I just don't see it. I don't either. I think it's going to be, I think we're until like maybe next year's masters-ish around there is maybe the next time that we have like full capacity golf fans again.

Yeah. I don't know what you think about anything, but I was going to say about 18 months before we're talking about potentially full tournament and, you know, sporting events. What do you think, Larch? He's on mute. You're on mute. I was coughing there for a little bit.

But I think it's... You lucky alien that doesn't pick up these things. I would say that it's... I think we're outside of this year. I think I just... The optics of a venue saying we're 100% open, like, I don't know who can make that decision, but I don't think anybody out there has, like,

the balls to say that because I think the optics look so bad. So I think it's outside this year for sure, which is sad. It is sad. Yeah. That's pretty depressing. That's pretty depressing. I just can't see it. Like we're still living like NHL is in a bubble this year up top.

Like the Canadian teams can't play. Like they're playing 56 games in NHL schedule this whole year. Like NBA games are getting canceled. I just Atlanta versus Phoenix is canceled tonight. Like it's just, it's 2021 and it's just as bad as it was the day that it came out. where those teams were getting canceled nine months ago, 10 months ago. So it's,

I just don't see it happening, especially with big leagues, with a lot of liability and all this shit. Just can't see it happening, unfortunately. Boy, is that a depressing way to bring it into the end of the show. Yeah,

I mean, I want to go to a concert so badly. I'm just, like, if they have them, I'm just going. Like, whenever they're on,

I'm just going, man. Like, I just have, like, at some point, maybe that's what's going to do is people are just going to do it.

Right? Like, you're just going to go. They're like they're going to open it up and whoever wants to go just goes. At some point you have to make that decision. At some point, you're going to have to just go. I get a question for people as I'm scrolling through golf rankings and I'm looking at, you know, the top players in the world. So Doug Gim, obviously friend of the podcast, friend of Riggs playing video games.

What is his world ranking and will he win a tournament this year? Guessing his world ranking? Yes. I'm going to guess Doug is like 120th in the world. Okay. And no, he's not going to win a tournament issue. I'm going to say 160th. And no, I think he doesn't make a tournament.

Maybe misses four cuts. I'm going to say 145. So he is 388. And, but like if he's, I mean, I think of him is potentially winning the tournament this year. Like, and I just, that, my only point there is like, there's so many guys. could potentially win. I think he's on the outside, but like, I think I wouldn't hate a season long bet on Doug Gim winning a tournament this year. I think there's good value in that. Dude, if Doug Gim wins and you call that shot, that would be pretty incredible.

Dude, he did, he almost won the US Amateur. He was an absolute savage for Texas in college. And then in talking with him, he was saying how like last year he had a ton of injuries. So we had like a bad one year stretch, but then like late last year, he started to make a bunch of cuts and play really good golf because he was like healthy again and working on his game. So like that type of stuff out of context, you just wouldn't even factor that in. But I do think because when you look, he's 388 or whatever and like you'd laugh. There'd no chance this guy wins the tournament. But actually he's probably closer to like a top hundred player in the world who just has been injured and whatever.

So I kind of like that too. I think that'd be a fun one that I would get in on, much. like when we bet on our very good friends at Everton soccer a couple years ago because we were trying to get into the Premier League and they were just the least exciting team to watch it in the history. They defend for 80 minutes and then counterattack for 10 and they lose 1-0. Their best prayer, dude, was to tie a game zero-zero. That was like what they tried to do every game. And we were like, we're going to we're going to hammer these guys. We're going to really, we're going to take it to, They're going to win.

They're going to, what do we have them to finish top four in the table or something? And they legit were like, oh, 11 and 12 or something. And they just, they never. So bad. It was awful. Hopefully Doug Gim would be more exciting. He's rocking the old Barstall Sports alignment stick cover at, while I would just kind of cool.

I like to see that, Doug. So, yeah, he's one of our guys, follow along with Dougie this weekend out at the Sony Open. Kiz is playing. Scott Brown's playing. So we got quite a few. There's a bunch of more, obviously. But yeah, follow along, prime time golf. It's exciting. I think that's all I got. Anybody have anything else? Thinking about Kiz in Hawaii, it makes me a laugh for some reason. Like, what does Kiz do in Hawaii? Nothing.

I mean, it's one of the greatest places in the world, but Kevin Kisner doesn't seem like a Hawaii guy to me. Maybe he is. Everybody's probably a Hawaii guy to a certain degree. But kids just seems it doesn't seem like a Hawaii guy. Yeah, I think Kiz goes to Hawaii, goes to golf course, goes back to his house, drinks a couple like light beers, and then just gets up and does it again. And while everyone else is out snorkeling

and fucking whale watching, kids ain't doing any of those things. I'm picturing with like, you know, what's a hula? What are they put on? Away. Yeah, yeah. Wearing one of those things,

like with a shirt off and a beer in his hand or something like that. I picture Bubba Watson doing that. I can see kids on a porch looking at the water, just having a beer, that mental image makes you laugh. For whatever reason, I picture that as well,

but I picture him being like a little miserable. Just a little. Gets off the plane they lay him. He's just like, oh, fuck. Corking playing soft. I don't have a shot. I could be very wrong about that.

It's just a feeling I am. No, I don't really have anything else. I want, thank you to everyone for the crazy, feedback and and the hype around the Taylor Made teaser. I mean, people went crazy. We kind of, so we recorded that podcast before the teaser came out. So we really like didn't realize how big it was. I mean, we knew it was going to be big, but I didn't realize it was going to be that big.

People are going nuts. So yeah. Did we have an incredibly positive? And I would say a lot of the stuff that we post, no matter how good it could be, it's not that positive all the time. It might be mostly positive, but you see it pretty, this was like people were congratulating us. Like we had won something, which was, I mean, we have. We were like one sponsorship and a deal with an amazing company in golf, Taylor Made.

And the fact that we are air quote sponsored athletes is laugh out loud, funny, but also it is cool. It's like a culmination. It's a little bit of a almost like a coronation of what we've been doing, the fact that we're able to get something like that done and that we're now partnered with this company and that we have access. and we have clubs and we're going to have that partnership going forward. And people were, people actually saw that even more so than I think we would have ever guessed. And we're super supportive and sending us really nice notes. And they were giddy about all the content.

I did see a lot of people responding like, when's the full video coming out? I hope that they understand that there's like 10 videos coming out. Yeah. And I think that they're going to be excited to learn that. Yeah. There's a combination of instructional videos from the best, golfers in the world with us trying to do the things that they're teaching us. And then there's also

challenge videos, which we tease in the end of the video, where they're just must watch challenges, you know, Doc Redmond playing with just a driver. So it's just really good videos, DJ playing lefty, stuff that you won't see anywhere else, really. And I think it's honestly this partnership, the fact that foreplay and barstool is partnered as sponsored athletes and a sponsor company with tailor-made golf is the biggest thing a bunch like a regular common man golfing podcast could possibly achieve like for like I just don't know like it doesn't get any crazier to me that like the company someone was like they dropped John Rom to have

foreplay like at some point like we are just like in their rotation of sponsored athletes. Like I just like there's anyone like realized what that is like that's insane to me. Absolutely insane. Yeah, we viewed as like a a B player on tour for them. Like what are we viewed at? You know what at tournaments where they'll have the big signs and they'll like have call more cow a D.J. Doc Redmond and it's just like a line of tailor made people. I would love for our four faces to be right at the end of that at some point. Because yeah, I guess that's the world we're living in right now. We're awful, terrible. hack golfers that are sponsored by Taylorman.

It's quite incredible. It's very cool. It is very, very cool. You know, I saw a good amount of tweets about, like, would you have ever guessed when you guys started this thing years ago that you would be here? And it's like, no. Like, no, not even close, not an inkling, not a fraction. And I think that we would be in a position where we're sponsor.

We're arguing that we should be on the same. line of fucking photos of faces at tournaments with DJ and Morcala and Wolf and Fleetwood. Like, no, that's that's crazy. So it is surreal. It's, it's cool, man. We're going to be doing a lot of stuff with Taylor Made. You know, I mean, the fact that we have Taylor Made clubs and ball, the fact that we've got Peter Millar, clothes, G4 shoes, it's crazy.

It's everything you could dream of if it was for, five years ago. Someone said like, oh, if you were going to be a golfer and you could get sponsored by a couple of companies or you could have picked your, pick your sponsors, who would they be? It's like, oh, those are the, that's exactly you. I would choose. I would choose Taylor Made. I would choose Peter Moire. I would choose G4. So it's, it's pretty sweet. And we're very appreciative. And it was cool to see people as supportive and congratulatory as they were. Yeah, it was just cool that people feel like they're along for the ride, which we feel like you are as well. So for them to be that excited for us, I guess, makes sense on some level.

But it's very flattering. It's very cool. Yeah, that's the biggest thing that drives this thing is that, and I've often said this to people when we're pitching to other companies or whatever, and we're talking to people and they're trying to get a feel for our brand, I would say, like, our viewers and our listeners, they listen to our stuff because, like, they feel like they're there because we're just a bunch of regular fucking dudes. I'm sitting in my parents' house right now in pajama pants, like, fucking just

talking on a podcast and like other people are doing that too listening to this thing i came from a pizzeria you guys came from iowa st louis lurch is selling drones right now and like we're just like we're just like going to tailor made media days and getting sponsored by taylor made and getting access to guys like dustin johnson and he's doing stuff that common people like want to see like he's like talking to us in a certain way and like it's just a really cool look and if i was still a viewer which I always was a fan of Barstool. That's what I always used to do with Dave's videos, where, like, Dave would finally get access

to, like, David Ortiz to do the Whippleball contest. And I was like, holy fuck, one of our guys is in with David Ortiz. This is fucking crazy. Like, what's he going to say to him? Like, how is he act around a regular dude? Like, that's, like, what I was brought up on with Barstool. So it's really cool that we're able to, it's honestly stunning that. I'm sitting in the chair, like, being able to do that with golf.

Like, with you guys, it's nuts. It's really crazy. Because there's a lot of people that look at it that way. where they're like, I'll never fucking talk to Dustin Johnson, but like now I get to see how he would talk to me or one of my friends or like doing our group or, you know what I mean? Like four man scramble. How many arguments are like that in a group chat with buddies?

Like, oh, could we fucking beat Tommy Fleetwood? And like now we just like get to do it. It's really cool. It's very cool. And we're super appreciative. And we're going to have a lot of fun stuff. We're going to, I mean, we got a lot of opportunities now. And we're going to be rolling out videos for the next.

several months, the kingdom fitting, all the stuff with all those guys that we filmed. We're going to be rolling out. We got more shit on our drives than you can imagine. So get excited. Go to subscribe to our YouTube because a lot of stuff goes out there. 101,000 subscribers. Congratulations to us.

Big thanks to you guys. What are the names again? Do you remember the names that are supposed to go? No chance. It was Ryan, Brian, Finnegan, Sarah. Kidney. Sydney. I think that's a pretty decent amount of them that we said.

We did a good job there. Okay. Enjoy the Sony. Big thanks again for all the support. Keep an eye out for our videos, our content, because we've got a lot of it. Oh, quickly, the Tiger Doc. I mean, we can't not mention the Tiger Doc. I haven't watched it.

I watched it. I watched it. And I know people are denouncing it. I know that Tiger's team is denouncing it. that we are denouncing it. It was still super interesting because it's just, it's like when you read Harry Potter and then watch Harry Potter as a movie, like it's basically based off that book with Tiger's face on it,

whatever the name of that was, the Armicottain. It was pretty cool to see like the footage of like what you've read about. And it's, there's a couple moments in the first episode that are like chill inducing. I mean like Tiger's life is fucking incredible. And like these moments where like, Earl is saying, like, I give you this gift world, please do something good with it or whatever. And, like, they show a clip of Tiger just, like, draining putts to win Masters and stuff.

It's fucking insane, like, his life. The fact that, like, he was this little fucking two-year-old on national TV. And then they show he's, like, a 40-year-old winning at the Masters. Unbelievable, like, honestly. But the next couple episodes, we're just going to skip over, I think. I mean, yeah, it's wildly fascinating. If you're a fan of Tiger, just his upbringing, Earl, everything that everybody knows about that situation already. I think it's must watch.

There's also footage that I've watched a lot of Tiger footage on YouTube, and there's some footage that I've never seen. Like when he's dancing around his girlfriend's place from high school, like, that's all, like, insanely cool footage that I've never seen before. So it's a much watch. We'll skip over the next couple episodes, but then we'll get back onto it for the rise. But the next couple are going to be a bumpy road for sure. And I don't know how much truth there is to it. We're not, we're, we're Tiger guys, so. Aren't there only two episodes?

I thought there were two episodes. Oh, there's only two episodes? Oh, there's only two episodes? Yeah. Oh, okay, so maybe I'll just skip the next one. I thought it was a four-part series. The ending of episode one makes a dark turn. Dark.

We're about, we're going to get into the weeds of this thing, and I don't know if I'm ready for the weeds. Dark and unconfirmed. All right, so, yeah, for all the terms of it's a one episode. Tiger doesn't, yeah. It's a one-episode doc. That's it. If this thing didn't get Tiger's signature on it or approval, and that's why we don't stand by what's about to happen.

We stand by his achievements, him being the greatest player of all time, but what's about to be shown is not something that if Tiger is not interested in supporting a delacious attack on, you know, one of the great figures in the history of sports. Correct. It's time to move on. It's time to watch the one of the masses of you. But if you guys want to watch, that's fine. I don't blame it.

I watched the good parts. I had happy tears at times. It's good. That's very good. Yeah, I, it's weird because I've gotten mixed. I obviously made a very public stand. I wasn't going to watch it. I've gotten very mixed reviews.

I've got a lot of people that have DM me that have been like, fuck this. I watched it. It's the worst thing ever. I'm so mad I watched it. These scumbags. and I've had other people text you. They're like, it's must watch.

You should absolutely tune in. So I've gotten a little bit of both. I don't plan on watching it, but I might. So we'll see what happens. Yeah, I mean, like the bad parts, they basically, they kind of set it up where it's like he had no other option. It's just like the way he was brought up and stuff.

So that kind of, like, I feel like they kind of saved themselves with that because there are parts where they're like, you know, Tiger, like, didn't know anything else, didn't know any better. But then, I mean, they just dive deep into shit. which we don't we don't like to talk about so my issue was like if it was and it is based on for the like the book which we talked about a lot and we had armicottayan on and we mean i've read the book twice but i thought that the book did a very like from what i've heard the book overall did a very even job of kind of diving into everything whereas what i was upset about with the documentary

was that like the only new voices are on the salacious front for the most part from what I heard of like and they're bringing in like ex-girlfriends and like Rachel you could tell who like you know now I'm seeing quotes from her where she's like I've only ever been known as like Rachel Eutututel you could tell comma like Tiger Woods mistress well then I see a article where it's like she's dating a married guy in like Florida or something and has like broken. up another family and they're bringing her in to that. Well, of course, these are going to be like one-sided negative views on Tiger's private life, which like, I don't give a fuck about. When I tune in, I want to live in a bubble. When I tune in to Tiger Woods playing a golf tournament, I want that to be the most positive rooting for that man experience in the history of the world, and I don't want anything to ruin that. So I don't give a fuck about bringing in extra for another. I read the book. Like I said, I understand Earl. I understand. understand the family. I understand the empathetic nature in which they paint him at times.

So if it's just going to be that, but they kind of go even harder on the salacious stuff, I don't need to fucking see that. Yeah, that's true. It's crazy. He's a golfer. He's our favorite golfer. He doesn't need to talk to. I don't need to watch that shit. I'm not watching the next episode. Hell yeah. Okay. With that, again, enjoy the Sony. And we'll be back on Tuesday. Hit it hard. Hit it hard. Hit it hard. Do it hard.
