Talking golf in December.
North East December, too.
Weirdly, though, 55 degrees outside.
Yeah, but usually in December, you know, me growing up in New York, it's like, golf is like usually
in the back of your mind.
For sure.
You're just like watching it.
You see some screensaver come up of a golf course.
You're like, oh.
Yeah, but we still are like three months.
And then this is the very beginning of that.
Right.
But now it's like we just get to talk about it.
And so it's basically just still in our lives.
Also,
huge off season.
Huge.
And we just had Bryce of D.
Sheab-O and then Tiger Woods.
We just like, we just like, we just like,
we just like trickled into this off season and just happened to have our two
biggest shows ever.
Yes.
Yeah.
That's true.
That's kind of crazy.
We did in basically two weeks apart.
we had essentially the two biggest shows that we'll probably ever have
or that we've at least had to this point.
Actually nothing going on.
Crazy off season.
The Bryson interview,
I don't know that we full,
I mean,
we did do a full show reaction to the Bryson interview,
but it's almost,
then it got kind of swept under the rug because the tiger stuff happens.
We had to do a whole podcast on that.
The fact of the Bryson thing happened and the way that it happened
and the fact that he just buried you and then buried you again this weekend when
we were at the simulator.
What do you called you?
Snapper McGee.
Snapper McGee.
I just can't get out of his grip.
He's got me just like absolutely gripped.
I'm just in his palm.
And he's just puppeteering me everywhere I go.
It's bad.
He owns me.
He's my daddy.
Bryson is my daddy.
So what's what I'm supposed to say?
Anyone that missed it on Twitter,
Bryson and I basically have a relationship now where we respond to each other's
Instagram stories.
And we were at the simulator, five iron golf.
Shout out to Five Aaron Golf in New York and Manhattan.
We're at the golf simulator on Friday night.
Frankie's on the range.
Yanks one left.
And Bryson just responded.
on Snapper McGee.
That's all he said.
Just right in your kitchen.
That was like a couple hours after he finished his round with like Tiger Woods at the
Absolutely insane.
And I hadn't been hitting the best at the simulator.
I was kind of like rattled.
We're like losing holes at certain points.
I'm like what the fuck.
And then of course rigs,
he's playing against rigs in a match.
Yep.
And mid round he's like,
oh, by the way,
you know that horrible swing you had on the range before that?
Bryson just body.
Of all the things that you don't need in your golf game right now is like a professional
number five golfer in the world in your ear.
every time you fuck up. By my drive. Yes. Because the drive, my, with my driver, my new two,
you said on the show, that's your most common. My new title is T.S3 driver. It's an absolute
fucking weapon and I'm just piping the ball down the middle. The one time I hook one right.
Bryson's like, Snapper McGee. I shut the fuck up, Brayson. Just let me just have one bad shot.
Because you know it's coming when I get the wedge in my hand. You know that's coming.
He's all over you. He's in the mix.
Which I love. Couldn't be more in the mix. We had the whole Bryson show.
Then two weeks later, we had the Tiger. We spent all last week talking about Tiger,
meeting tiger all of that i think a couple of people commented because it was such a
it was such a uh ferocious like fury of things that just happened that we missed some stuff and
a bunch of people commenting like i can't believe you guys didn't talk for a half hour about the fact
that tiger would said your name yeah thanks rakes is unbelievable how many times do you think you've
watched the video of the interview that you did realistically probably a hundred times yeah we
showed up to the bar at the golf simulator me
and my buddy and we just like found Riggs at the end of the
bar and he was just watching the interview
I mean I would mean that was like completely
unprovoked he didn't know any of us were behind him
we were just like walked up to him he just like I'm watching
if you just saw me on the subway in any random moment
I'm watching that video it's amazing
it's just Tiger Woods not only
spoke to you he didn't only just answer
your questions he just said your name
he said my name
I can't believe that he said my name
also my name is not
like a lot of times you'll hear me say someone say
rigs and you'll be like what the fuck are they just saying and like you won't remember it plus three
minutes went by before you got introduced to him and after all these questions happened to him and he's
like bombarded with all these knowledge that he had to like spew out and then he had to remember
your name right i've had long discussions with people about that fact some would point to that
means that he like is aware of us and and me and what we do and other people were like dude he's
tiger wood he's trained to like every interview he's ever done he he he's trained to know and
remember the name and then at the end
say thanks sansy thanks rigs
i want i want it to be the first one i want him to be like aware of you and aware of us
but i do think he's a medium machine at this point where he just like he remembers he's
like all right he doesn't even remember that he had to remember it he just knows he's trained
that right because if he is aware of riggs like he's just talking to riggs right like if you
see someone that you're aware of you just know their name so that that's why it could
have just come up very easily i will say another thing i've noticed is that like halfway
through my back fusion question
he like starts to like smirk and like almost he kind of knows that closes his eyes and like there's a little
laugh and like he kind of knows what's coming he's like oh this is the fusion guy yeah i will admit
the first time that you showed us in the podcast studio the interview yeah and you do the fusion question
he says what does he says he tells you to skip it he tells you to skip it he goes keep what you
get yeah but when he says skip it i thought he was telling you to skip the question i thought he was
like skip it let's go to the next one oh i like i like lost my brain i like lost my
breath. I feel like I got punched. Like he just buried me
in the first question. Yeah, I thought the first question
he was like, skip it. Next. I don't want to answer that one. Thank you
next. Oh, that's nice. Oh, a little topical
reference. Wow, a little Ariana Grande.
Oh, yeah, we're topical. That was unbelievable. We got the chicks
in the office. We get all kinds of, there's, you can't miss it. I got a little bit of
everything. The chicks in the office break down those videos like I've never seen before.
I watched an entire minute video about how in a little booklet that Ariana Grande of a music
video that Ariana Grande just came out with called Thank You Next.
that she writes like huge
and they're alluding that that is like
Pete Davidson's dick.
Yes.
Like how are you breaking down this music video?
I gotta be honest.
The whole internet was going crazy over that video.
I watched it one time.
They were calling it a masterpiece,
okay?
I watched it one time.
It looked identical to like Britney Spears's baby one more time.
This is just a music video.
I do.
I sit next to the chicks in the office and I do.
I know more about music videos
and Ariana Grande than I ever thought.
To be honest,
I get all of my pop news from chicks in the office.
Yeah.
I scroll their internet.
Instagram page.
Give it to you in one minute bites.
It's crazy.
It's awesome.
I literally sat there yesterday and just went through their page and I just got all the information I needed on this thank you next thing.
And now I'm prepared.
There you go.
I would never know what the hell that reference was.
The huge thing was big.
I didn't know.
I didn't notice.
Huge.
It's huge.
We're having fun.
We're having fun.
Look, the Tiger thing is still crazy.
Yes, I watch it all the time.
Also, Tiger just puts asses in the seats.
Sorry.
Like, that's just the most views I've ever gotten on a video, but it's a million.
Close.
Over a million views on that.
video just with an iPhone in the fucking
make any sense like a million views
the guy what was that even mean and he's done a million interviews but people were like
I have to watch this one that's the thing that's so surprising right it's like we know
everything about tiger everyone knows everything about Tiger Woods but like every time he
speaks you just have to watch it yeah you have to you see him standing there and I don't
what if this time he like floats right it's like what if this time he just ascends into
heaven his smile in person is majestic oh my god I mean yes he just has the
nicest smile I've ever seen.
I don't know what it is.
He glows.
Like his face is, when he decides to
keep the hat on.
His hat stays.
It was on the whole time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Has to.
Has to.
I don't know.
Why doesn't he just go for sure?
I don't know.
I don't want you.
All right.
Here's a question.
I mean, obviously the answer is yes.
But like, would you be upset if you met Tiger Woods and he didn't have the hat on?
Like would that take away from the experience?
Yeah.
Because the way I saw him, he was in competition mode, Tiger.
Yeah.
You saw Tiger on the 18th green in a major championship.
He's wearing black pants, a black shirt.
Yeah.
A black vest and a black tiger out.
He was literally, he could have been finishing up his Saturday round of the Masters.
Yes, the way that I saw him.
Yeah, because if you see him without his hat, he's not Superman anymore.
No.
And we talk all time.
He outside of the golf course doesn't know how to dress.
You would have met Eldrick.
Yeah, right.
And Eldrick's like an average guy.
He's kind of a nerd.
Yeah, he's like a kind of a dorky, like brutal-haired guy.
Just like, what?
Like, if I saw a tiger in like a graphic tee at like Top Golf or something, I'd be like I didn't meet Tiger.
No.
That wasn't Tiger Woods.
No.
I met him in the locker room at Shadow Creek.
He was literally, when I saw that he was all geared up in his full,
when he put, he was putting his golf shoes on for the interview.
I was like, yeah, you better put those golf shoes up for the interview.
I want the full tiger.
I want real Tiger Woods.
And that's what I got.
So you're right.
Had I met him?
No hat, t-shirt, some bullshit like that.
I met him at the pool at the MGM.
That's like.
It's Eldrick just sipping on my tie.
But you met Tiger Woods inside the locker room of Shadow Creek.
Yeah.
He should shave his head, though.
But I'm going through something similar.
Like I, people tell me I should shave my head.
Yeah, you should.
And I should.
But I just don't want to let that part of me go.
Trent, if you walk into this goddamn office with a bald head, I don't know what I'm going to do.
It's, I mean, like some fucking Walter White shit.
We're slowly doing it that I'm like, I'm going on a lower guard.
So I'm going to one guard now, so it's pretty close to being shaved.
Can it go lower than one?
It can go, but I'm slowly working my way down.
And I used to shave my head in high school.
But I will say that like, fall on ball.
Yeah, when I played football, I would always do it.
Every football season.
Like, Bickett?
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's something.
You can take a razor to it?
Yeah.
Holy shit.
But I have a scar on the top of my head, so that's kind of a problem too.
It's badass, though.
Yeah.
Well, when I was two, I had a cyst on the top of my head, and they took it off.
I mean, that's just made producer Jake almost fell off.
I will say that's the story my parents told me.
It could have been.
You had a what?
You know what a cyst is?
It's like a little ball of like, um, it's just like a little ball of what?
Like gunk that grows in your skin.
Yeah.
It's almost like a, um.
A skin tag?
Italians get skin tags.
No, but it is like a bump.
It's almost like a permanent bruise.
Holy shit.
But it doesn't hurt.
It's just like that's the same texture.
And they just, when I was two, they just sliced that fucker right off.
So you said like a huge, you were like a deformed child?
Apparently.
Again, I don't remember these because I was two years old.
It's not.
He said he had a huge lump on his head.
Not huge.
It's like a little.
Should they sliced it off.
You know what a cyst is?
Yeah, but they said they sliced it off.
Well, yeah, that's what surgery is, dude.
Well, how else would they do it?
The way.
See where this is the problem with podcasting.
The way that Trent explained what they did
looked as though they took a machete and sliced a ball off the top of his head.
He did, he did it like.
Which caused me to say where you were a deformed child.
He did it like they scalpsed.
Like you had a baseball on the top of your head and they just like cut it off a scy
old. I was two years old.
I weighed like 60 pounds and they cut a cyst off the top of my head.
I was like a weird kid.
A weird baby.
You were a huge baby.
You were a huge baby.
I was the biggest baby ever in Iowa, right?
Yeah.
Is that what this had is?
That's such an unbelievable.
14 pounds.
You were the heaviest baby ever born in Iowa?
No, I don't know if it's Iowa.
Definitely Cedar Rapids.
I don't know about the whole state.
Jesus.
That's stunning.
The picture of Trent when he was born is absolutely laugh.
I mean, you came out in like fifth grade.
I just strolled out there, you know, hanging.
Hello.
Chewing a piece of gum.
Hello.
Where's my lunch, buddy?
Where's my afternoon snack?
Hello, I am on Earth now.
I like how you just became an alien.
Yeah.
He went from a new boy.
A big newborn.
No, we were in a little.
Yeah, they just sliced it off.
Oh, man, that's something.
Hero World Challenge.
Let's go through some golf stuff.
Okay.
Tiger sucked this week.
I watched a lot of it.
Wasn't great.
He said he was sick.
He got sick after the match.
So he's a little down.
Lost some weight.
He's tournament host, all this.
I don't, be honest with this tournament.
It's weird because last year it meant everything.
I was just going to say, isn't it funny how a year changes everything?
Like last year, we were betting everything on it.
We were just like, oh my God, I hope everything goes well.
And now it's like, eh, he won once and it's okay.
I've never been more nervous watching a sporting event than I was for Tiger's first tee shot last year at the Hero World Challenge.
Yeah.
Like, because 50% of you thought he's just going to crumble down on the ground and he's going to, like, disappear.
Yeah.
Like when they, when they kill the Jedi, like when a Jedi dies in Star Wars and they just crumble into a pile under their robe and then they're gone forever.
The floor.
Yeah.
That's like what I thought was going to happen to Tiger at his first tee shot at the Hero World Challenge.
and instead he was this fucking machine that had been fused
and went on to win and dominate and return and all that last year
the tournament last year had so much hype
we are watching every shot we were tweeting our dicks off
when he like tied for the lead during the second round
was wearing the tape no that was that was the british open
that was british open when we showed up with the tape no right okay yeah
k t tape was the british open it's been a long year it's been a lot off and down
but i did feel the same way because when he teed off the british open we were just as nervous
because he had the tape on that morning but yeah the hero world
I remember when he had something in his eye after his t-shot?
It looked like he did like, like, I'm uncomfortable.
Oh, no.
I'm convinced that you and I are the only people who, like, almost had a heart attack at that moment.
Like, if you go back and watch it, it looks like he, like, something happened.
And nobody's tweeted about it.
His first T-shot.
He came out with a KT tape.
And then his first T-shot, he winced.
Like a winced with Tiger is, again, that's like the next two years of our lives are ruined.
Yeah.
Ruin.
And he winced.
And nobody said a fucking word.
and then he almost won the tournament.
So anyways, this year the Hero World Challenge, whatever.
Just had a very whatever vibe to it.
You know what I mean?
I have one big storyline that came out of the Hero World.
I have one as well.
Tony Fino.
Fuck, that was mine.
This guy can't, he can't not finish it.
Tony Fienow finishing goddamn second place again.
Colby.
How about Colby?
So everybody knows Colby,
one of our tech guys who bets on Tony Fianaut are winning.
It sits next to me in the radio.
Every, talks my ear off single week.
About Tony Finao.
He's like, Tony Fina, this is the week.
This is the week.
I'm putting money on him.
So this week, he comes.
kept commenting earlier in the week he goes so this is like the seven year anniversary of his like
of his like mother's grandmother's death or something right he's like so he's got something to play for
and then he found out a couple days ago before the tournament started he goes it's like the two-year
anniversary or like the maybe like the two-year the second birthday of his like second son or some bullshit
like that yeah and he's like stars are lining it's like stars are lying it's a big emotional win
and then he's leading the tournament.
I think he was like six under on one of the front nines,
whether it was Friday or Saturday.
I mean,
the guy was just playing lights out.
Back nine yesterday was a train wreck.
I mean,
he's like duck-hooking T-shots into the fucking,
into the waste,
sandy waste areas,
making doubles on drivable par fours with the lead,
finishes solo second.
I mean,
even his own Instagram,
like the picture he put up is him in this huge dune,
hitting like a pretty nice sand shot,
but he's like second place finishing the Bahamas this week.
And all the comments are like, man, you just got to get it done.
Great job.
I see a first place soon.
Did you say that unironically?
You just like great second place finish?
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, you can't be serious with that.
Second place finish in the Bahamas this week.
The Albany did not disappoint.
Congrats to John Ron.
Like, stop congratulating people.
Turn into this.
Did not disappoint.
You literally disappointed.
We have laughed about 20 feet out and out finishing second.
Well deserved win for John Rom.
I'm like, no, you deserve a win, dude.
Stop being happy with second place.
You have to win.
That's his problem.
We talked about this months ago, and he continuously still finishes in second.
We said, would you be happy playing for the rest of your career and just finishing a second place?
And I think we came to the consensus, like, yeah, you win a shit ton of money.
You're always in the mix.
You're in all these, like, rider cups and you're in all these championships.
You're coming down 18 all the time.
But you're just like, this has to start killing Tony Feenehouse.
So during the 2017-2018 season, Tony Feeneau had three second-place finishes, 11 top 10s, 19 top 25s,
and in just four starts.
since the fall series began,
he has two second place finishes already.
That is unbelievable.
Why are more people not talking about this?
There's a comment on his Instagram says,
you sure have a lot of seconds.
Just so directed.
Like we laughed about this.
We're giggling about it,
but like it's becoming a real issue
that he needs to overcome.
And again,
it wasn't like he played great down the stretch
in the final round yesterday
and just couldn't quite get it done.
like he just collapsed.
I mean, he couldn't play golf for a couple holes.
And next thing you know,
John Rom had like a six shot lead and it's over.
Does Tony,
like what is wrong with Tony Fee now that he can't get this done?
I mean,
everyone's talking so positively positively to him.
They're like,
you're going to be racking him up soon.
The process is going.
Keep working.
You're overdue.
It's like,
how many more times is he going to do this
before we start calling him like.
And what happens when he goes into a slump,
right, right?
Like he's playing great right now and he can't win.
This is the best golf he can ever play.
So he's going to go through a couple of years.
phase where he's not playing well and you're not going to be finished the second day you're
finished 70th and if this is not the best golf he can play he may end up being the best
golfer of all time he gets over this is his bet if this is his slump like he just can't get
over like the hump right here he's like he's playing kind of bad in the back nines and then the
final i will say him always not being able to win but being right there is it's must watch tv
like i had to i turned off football was like i have to tune into tony feeney now see
if you can get this thing done.
Second I tuned in,
snap hook off,
and he's just out of the tournament.
It's unbelievable,
this guy.
So,
and he seems like the nicest fucking guy
in the world.
Like Tony Feeneh,
I think,
is the nicest person
in the entire world.
He's got a great background.
All that.
He's got a very unique swing
with, like,
the short bag swing and all that.
So he's a little different.
It's cool.
It's great.
He just can't fucking win a golf tournament.
Yeah, it was a son's seventh birthday
the day they teed off.
Oh, man.
Holy row,
of the whole thing.
You teach me how to be a better
Dad, I'm going to go out there and win for you.
It's tough.
I'm surprised Colby didn't comment on there.
Love it.
This is your weekend.
She can't get it done.
Tony just can't get it done.
I love the Dollar Shave Club has everything I need to look, feel, and smell my best.
What I love even more is the fact that I never have to go to a store.
That's because, one, Dollar Shave Club delivers everything I need right to my door.
And two, they keep me fully stocked in what I use so I do not run out.
Here's how it works.
Dollar Shave Club has everything you need to get ready.
No matter what you are getting ready for.
They have you covered head to toe for your hair.
skin, your face, you name it.
They have this new program where they automatically keep you stocked up on the products
you use.
You determine what you want and when you want it and it shows up right at your door from once
a month to every six months, whatever it is.
That's what I do for their toothpaste.
Nothing worse than running out of toothpaste.
It's the worst.
You just don't have any other options.
You realize it at the worst time and then you can't brush your teeth and your entire day
is ruined.
You're just not a real person when you ever brush your teeth.
You're just not.
Honestly, you just walk around like a disgusting slob.
you feel like you smell, you're just gross.
There was a poll going around whether you'd rather brush your teeth or shower if you had to pick one.
I would brush my teeth because you have to.
Yeah, throw some deodorant on and then brush my teeth.
You're good to go.
Dollar Shave Club's tooth paste.
They keep me stocked.
It's fantastic along with all their other stuff.
So right now, Dollar Shave Club, they got a bunch of starter sets.
You can try for just five bucks like their oral care kit.
After that, the restock box ships regular priced products at regular size products at regular price.
So what are you waiting for?
Get your starter kit for just $4.
five bucks right now dollar shave club dot com slash four that's how you can get going for five bucks
dollar shave club dot com slash four so tony pina has a big story the poor guy just cannot stop
finishing second uh tiger woods again he finished he didn't finish last hadeky matziyama
finished last that was huge that's huge second to last my man tiger had a couple just stunning
moments i will say right after you do your first tiger interview there's nothing more devastating than
watching him just like struggle all over the golf course right because you gave you
Brice in the Rigsie Bump, right?
He went on to win three tournaments in a row.
Yep.
And now you touched Tiger Woods.
He won three of his next five.
He touched Tiger Woods.
I mean, he was chipping balls into the water.
Yep.
He had the Skullfucks.
He didn't have the Skullfucks.
That's not what he had.
But he had one chip.
I saw one chip that was really bad.
He had several horrible chips.
Now, I will say a lot of people did.
I think PGA Torch tweeted out that, like, Sunday Scarys clip, and it was like
DJ flubbing chips, Tiger Flubbing Chips, Patrick Hennley-Flebbah flubbing chips.
because they get this Bermuda grass.
So, like, down at Albany, too,
it's, they cut it really short around all the greens.
There's really not much rough.
But that grass, that Bermuda grass isn't like,
lynx golf grass where you can like bounce it and roll it.
Like, if you bump it into that stuff, it just stops and, like, pulls back to you.
So they were trying to hit those fucking wild shots and it wasn't working out.
Tiger did have the one where he, on, I think it was his first round.
I think it was on Thursday where hits his T-shot on the part three.
It ends up like a foot away from the water in this rough.
but he's technically in the hazard.
So he couldn't ground his club.
He chops at it.
It almost gets up to the green and then gets so close to the green that it was like the top of this little knob.
And so it picked up enough momentum that it just rolled right past them and into the water.
I was like, fuck.
Like we are not looking good.
Made triple there.
Almost finished DFL.
Again, not what you want to see after you finally meet Tiger.
Everyone's chirping me like Riggs, it was cool to see you.
And remember if you fucking ruined Tiger, I will kill you basically is what people were tweeting.
Oh, my God.
So not a great.
week for Tiger. However, it's the end of the year.
2018, this is the last golf we're going to see for the entire year.
So we can do a little bit of like a year, year in reflection here type look.
2018 will go down as one of the most important years in Tiger Woods career.
Undoubtedly.
It was the comeback year.
The comeback, how stunning it was.
Remember when like, remember early, early tournaments when his club head speed was in like the mid
one 20s and how fast he was swinging?
and he was like, I don't know what happened.
I thought, honestly, I would only be able to play, like, soccer with my kids.
He barely be able to golf.
Now I'm swinging at, like, an absolute madman.
So, like, that, the Valspar, which is, like, his second tournament back of the entire year.
I saw him say something interesting about the Valspar.
He said, if I had won that, it would have been too early to win in the process.
Like, he's, like, happy that it took him until the tour championship to win.
It was very strange quote from him.
Obviously, that's hindsight because it's, you know, it's part of the whole year.
Yeah, you got to do it, like, the right way.
Like, I didn't want to win that.
Usually he would say in that situation.
I wanted to win every week.
I wish I would have won there.
But he was like, no, it would have been too early in my coming.
He wanted to wait until the very last day.
That is what he made it seem like.
It's honestly probably true.
Like, had he won that, then the expectation would have been through the route.
True.
But he'd be like, how come you're not just winning every tournament?
Right.
Which is how I feel now.
Like, the fact that he didn't just blow the tires off of Phil Mickelson last week
and then win in the Hero World Challenge by shooting 35 under after what I saw at the Tour
championship is shocking.
I just can't believe it.
And he went on to lose and lose, which is bad.
It's bad.
So it's weird.
It's just a little hiccup.
It's a little hiccup.
Anyways, 2018 overall from Tiger Woods is, again, going to go down.
I mean, he had a first place win, obviously, at the Tour Championship.
He had two seconds.
He had seven top tens, 12 top 25s, and he made 16 out of 18 cuts.
That's a pretty fucking good year.
For a guy who legit, people didn't think he was going to play.
We must say when he's not at Tiger Woods level yet, right?
Like, we don't settle for top 25s.
We don't, like, settle for breaking down top 25s.
Tigers. We don't settle for breaking down, like, how many
cuts he made. He needs, we need, like,
carnage. We need him to absolutely
leave the entire field. I mean, we need him fucking
dusting people. We need the field, like, crawling
behind him, like, in, like, just
with no legs and just, like, barely
getting up their favorites, and he's just walking ahead, like, the
Terminator. We need him giving those interviews where people are like,
oh, like, would anything
less than a win this week be considered
a good week for you and him just give them the
desk there? Like, they're the dumbest people of all right. I'm here to
every week. I'm here to win. I only
tee it up to win. We need all those. We need Sundays
to start being boring again, right?
Like Tiger wins on Saturday night.
Yeah.
It's amazing when I look back,
it's amazing that a lot of like the 97 masters and all that when Tiger had like a 12-shot lead,
that those are some of the highest rated golf coverage.
Like so many people were tuning in to watch one guy just stomp on it.
Were they tuning in to see him like break records?
Yeah.
Must have been.
I mean, they were tuning in because this guy was,
but think about it now.
Like when Webb Simpson wins the fucking the player's championship by like eight shots or whatever
fuck it was.
The most unwatchable thing on earth.
The least entertaining golf.
off on the planet.
I'd rather watch the Westminster Dog Show.
Watching him hit like a seven hybrid down the fairway and shit was like the least
exciting thing in the world.
Like you're just hoping for a triple bogus is never going to come.
Right.
Whereas people would tune in to be like, oh, Tiger has a 17 shot lead.
I gotta watch that.
That fucking machine is stopping his way down the fairways.
If I had like my wedding on a Sunday and I knew Tiger was like 12 up, I'd still miss
the wedding to watch him win a major.
For sure.
You have to.
I mean, you have to.
John Rom, he actually won the fucking.
thing. I don't know if we talked about that.
Whatever.
Again, it's just a whatever.
They're down on the Bahamas.
I'm looking too.
Like, Steve, or Todd Lewis is talking about how Saturday morning is like, yeah, we were at this crazy party last night celebrating like Indian culture and stuff.
And I'm like, it's a fucking golf tournament.
There's people playing golf or they're just doing parties and shit the whole time.
So it made me feel better about Tiger.
The other last comment I wanted to make about Tiger, I kind of got a little bit out of order here.
It's okay.
I was watching Chronicles of a Champion golfer on Netflix.
You ever watch those?
I have no idea what that is, but it sounds incredible.
Chronicles of a champion golfer.
So it's all the British Open.
I can't believe we haven't talked about these before.
It's all the British Open.
They do like 30 to 40 minute docks on different British Open champions.
They've done a tiger.
They've done Tom Watson.
They've done our boy Greg Norman.
The shock.
Holy shit.
They've done all kinds of fucking awesome stuff.
You threw a Boston accent on that.
Yeah, the shock.
Yeah, I think that was, I think he was trying to do an Australian.
Australian accent.
And it just didn't come out, right?
You just dropped the R like a departed.
Greg Norman, the shock.
You sound like you're Sully from, you know, southy.
Well, see, now we've come across a problem here where a shark,
in an Australian accent, clearly sounds like shark in a Boston accent.
How I'm like, my brain is bursting right now.
How do you think Greg Norman says shark?
Shark.
Shock.
Yeah.
You just did what we're doing.
No, I didn't.
Yes, you didn't.
He did a little bit of a hill at the end.
Listen to that.
Listen to this.
Shock.
You're doing Shaak.
That's what I'm saying.
Can you know Australian like
Sharks?
I'm struggling.
Shock.
The wallaby.
The wallabie got eaten by the shock.
There you go.
The wallaby got eaten by the shock.
That would be sound like a fucking mashole if I do it.
I'm not going to say.
Yeah, that was your, Frankie, that was better.
We're down in Australia.
Oh, look at this crocodile.
We're here looking at crocodiles and sharks
There it is
You're on a roll
You gotta do a whole sentence
My name is Greg Norman
That sounded like the old guy
It sounded like you were from Jersey
That sounded like the guy from family guy
Are you ever gonna mix you in shark into this whole thing?
He did
I did
I did
Say it again
We're down in Australia
We're looking at crocodiles
And we're looking at shocks
No
You were
You were solely from Southie again
All right
Whatever
You had beer southy
I mean you were really
Admiral
That's a hard one
Thank you.
