tell the mood is high yeah yeah I guess so you look happy I guess it’s a little warm in studio be tonight the temperatures are rising outside again as is the studio we probably should have went to my house this this place only has two temperatures real hot or real cold free and cold there’s only two what because if it’s too nice out or if I’ve never found a cold in here it’s either been real cold or real hot maybe two to three weeks per year out of 52 well otherwise we have to leave the doors closed cuz the bugs are bad no there’s so it’s it’s about 8 weeks out of 52 that it’s uncomfortable in here remember when tonight happens to be one of them remember when we’ve had the conversation of you need an AC in your house for like seven nights year how many is it this year 20 yeah that’s Lots out of 365 though that’s a pretty small percentage you got a whole another week get through how much is your sleep worth though like it’s worth it is worth that extra money for me yeah I guess so do you sleep naked when it’s super super hot no it’s impossible right I don’t know how people do it every single day I have every single day that might be the most disgusting thing that’s stupid and stupid it’s really stupid too what happens if a burglar comes in you got to be ready I walk around my H naked all the time that’s gross that’s even weirder that’s gross all the time your kids around yeah who gives a [ __ ] no way there’s no way this is true there’s no way I swear on my life I swear got to put 30 Rock clip in where Tracy Morgan says I walk around naked to show my kids he’s got the biggest Ding Dong Well the funny thing is if Cano’s not careful his son’s going to get older and then they’re going to have a bit of a contest you got to do it you you’re going to walk around naked or or your kid sees you naked it’s got to be at the age where they’ll always think my dad’s got a giant hog but once they get older they realize well it wasn’t that big after all no so shout that’s what a way to start a pot shout out to my dad cuz I think he’s I think he’s absolutely packing I no idea I haven’t seen it in 45 years this is 45 I’m only 38 I haven’t seen it in 32 years this is still in the Churchill Brewing part of [Music] the the sponsor to meckelberg Financial Group for this lead and uh but back to sleeping naked I I can barely sleep without without a shirt on because if it’s hot out then it’s all sticky your body sticks to itself you a shirt and a you’re kind of you’re okay no clothes at all what makes it even more sticky you’re then your balls are sticking legs do you guys have an unders sheath like a actual sheet and then you have like a comforter or D no one uses a flat sheet no one down to just one now just com I cannot sleep with more than one yeah comforter and that’s it yeah I I don’t think I’ve ever slept with a sheet you don’t have a sheet underneath your your blanket no you do just just the fitted one that’s the one that gets all tangled up the fitted one and and then another sheet and then a thin blanket that’s all I have just and a heavy one yeah that’s a l and a t-shirt but the fitted ones on the bottom the fitted ones on the bottom probably PJ pants too no big uh you probably own four or five pairs of those uh AR or whatever somebody says you probably wear socks to bed I’m going to [ __ ] knock you out right now nobody wears socks you don’t like socks at all times we’ll give you that we know that uh just knocking boots we’re also probably presented by meckelberg Financial Group if you’re trying to get your Affairs in order because because someone found out uh you sleep naked um head to melberg Financial Group they’ll help you out in all aspects of your life or business whether it’s group benefits pension plans uh your own life choices for uh let’s say uh Investments or will planning financial planning they do it all meckelberg Financial Group all right let’s get into our weeks real quick here I’m going to go first because I was short uh Millers nice we’re going to live update this pod I guess into Miller pod I missed probably a three run bomb it’s not a big deal uh I I’ll go first not not much going on for me this week uh just one quick round of golf on men’s night it was enjoyble oh sorry I I played yesterday uh but things are progressing nicely making three plus birdies every round which is beautiful uh the two short par fours at uh the Hill Crest club and moja 8 and N I’ve birdied them both back to back in three of the last four rounds that’s pretty damn good yeah back new desk yeah and like when the drive like so now that I’m choking down on that driver mhm those are drivable par fours I’m like greenside Fringe every single time like I play it so it’s like a two- putt birdie and when you play in the uh with guys that are willing to give you the second one then you’re always going to make birdie there just lag it up there uh never try to actually make the eagle putt but that’s not neither here nor there uh so played that speaking of baseball my team played our last game of the season we had a 10-run lead with two innings left and we blew it lost left but that’s the team we get to play in playoffs this year this week so maybe a little Redemption maybe that’s this could go one of either two ways either we have confidence knowing we can put up 10 or they have all the confidence in the world knowing no matter how big the lead is we can take ladder the ladder yeah these guys be up 20 who cares they did throw their best arm at us and we got 10 off of them whereas we threw our best he threw three Shadow Innings but said I’ll save myself for playoffs next week uh pitch count yeah so he pitch you came in and gave up all those runs no I came in and threw a shut out inning and then our other starter said I also want to get work for next week and unfortunately for him he got shelled gave up five and then me and the other guy were already out so we just threw another guy who doesn’t pitch all that much and then he gave up six in the last and we lost so our our Aces did not go the the distance I’m not including myself in that but um and then play I spoke about playing well well it works so good because our Elite 8 tournament our twom man tournament coming up here Bron El Harve and I and our partners is coming up we’re playing shinook and Swift and then the Hill Crest here in MO very excited play so yeah it’s fun place it’s a good idea I thought great shape Co pins in so just took everything then oh we forgot that’s thanks for bringing that up uh I had a putt that hit the pin that Cano would have counted in Co but instead he just didn’t decide not to pull it at Men’s night and it hit the pin and did not go in to be fair he said you could have counted it if him or I didn’t make our birdie he made his imediately made can’t count what can you do and then I want you’re not sawing in your own group when it doesn’t go in exactly that’s good point that’s tough uh and then I did were you standing there holding the pin no was at my ball he was close how far away 8 ft no I had so you wanted to like run over there yes and just grab it he was off the green he was like green yeah he was off the green it might have been the longest putt you could have had on that hole that day oh [ __ ] [ __ ] take off you might make it the [ __ ] might go in hey he did he did say 5 feet to it he was can’t believe I’m going Cano side here he did say that could go in and then just stood there Frozen yeah I’m not going to run and yeah anyway my algorithm is absolutely filled with Olympics including uh equestrian fails like where horses just run into the apparat just I don’t like that quit and the the Riders too much ray gun stuff on there oh so much ray gun uh I love RI I will say I think break dancing is one and done isn’t it rightfully so it was not good to watch so but someone brought up a good point it is way more athletic than curling yeah in a sense yeah in a sense yeah curling skill aoty there’s a lot of I mean but I mean curling like should marbles be in but but poker when you think of breaking breaking um they’re all like all about just remember these these people have never heard this song before they got to figure out the beat and do their moves they already know what moves they’re doing they’re just like how do I make this work within the song I’m still doing the same stuff yep but um yeah I’m still a sucker for swimming and then don’t let’s not talk about all the swimming medals that come with it cuz that I agree that is there is too many but it’s still the best one like and track and field coverage is way too hard because they have multiple events at the same time so it’s like constant switching back and forth race couple throws race couple throws yeah not for me I quite enjoyed watching diving the one night diving is fun and all you’re doing is cheering for no splash that’s all you’re do yeah well except for the people you don’t want to win then you want big uh I won’t say what countries those are but we all know we all they ain’t walking around naked at home I’ll tell you that for I had they were in the pool oh this is a good episode uh I had nine drinks this week that’s it kept her under double digits for for the first time since can’t have less than nine just like me y I have not well I did May 27th week I only had seven um leading up to player cup yeah 607 on the year so okay who’s I’ll go next uh speaking of uh I’ll get to it played men’s night as well I played in a separate group from you three I wasn’t I guess I wasn’t invited in to your group but uh your invite for this Wednesday still pending by the way oh pending okay birdie 12 at the Hill Crest for the first time in I think three years wow not long man it’s the hardest hole for me I just can’t well that that Tre is that dreaded tree the one that just won’t fall down and then I mean you could I could just adjust my shot type too but I just can’t do it well anytime you try to hit a cut on that hole you hit it dead straight dead straight into the [ __ ] no double it’s either double crossed or like pushed shanked that tree is not even in your way it’s just in your head that it’s in the way depends how far the back if the teas are at the back it’s in his way okay yeah but good for you yeah that felt good I mean that was the highlight of the round really I didn’t do anything else I’m not not trying to hijack your uh week but last night we played and we played pretty much till dark so we were hustling to get get it in in 18s AP par three we I hit my ball directly at the pin but we no one could see it land I’m like that could be in the ball Mark was I don’t know 10 feet short and the ball ended up like three feet short so it was dead online but nothing worse than getting an ace in the dark and you can’t even celebrate till you get to the hole I’d be I’d take it I’d be okay with that for sure yeah uh better then went went up to Candle with the fam nice little cabin there uh just played golf the one time just you guys there your family or my wife didn’t even go so she stayed back and watched my parents acreage cuz they got horses so oh yeah uh just me and my parents and the kids and yeah met up with some some of my parents friends up there and that’d be fun how was candle it’s fun like it’s a it’s a good good course it they could tighten it up just a little bit but I mean otherwise it’s tree line but open wish you could see the lake though can on 17 and 18 at least you get two holes where you can actually see the water it’s tree line with like some of them are like bushy trees and then other other times it’s like kind of like elage where it’s like trees but you can go find your ball oh okay yeah and that happened to me a couple times and I tried to punch out and yeah it’s tough to punch out when you got 17 trees to get through to get right um but so driver wasn’t quite on I decided to walk and I was going to take a push cart and they’re and so I was like yeah charge me for a push cart whatever then I looked at my thing for the starter and they charged me for rental clubs instead of the push card so I went back in I was like oh you charge me for rental clubs um I have my own clubs and then they’re like okay well it’s only like $4 more for rental clubs than a push cart and I’m like oh how much is a push cart what do you mean like how can that be is what I say I was like this thing just sits there the other thing are clubs like that you use like I don’t know what you mean like he’s like yeah that’s what it is it’s like like 15 like 17 bucks for a push card or something like that you said 12 is what you said no it was like 15 or more that’s insane cuz cuz a club rental was like 25 or 22 wow they’re always hosing you at that point place I went there they charged me full price and nine of the greens were completely dead oh these the greens are great there’s a little spongy but like kind of like jackfish that’s that’s the type of grass that is but I’m telling you they were full dead actually the a good course a good way to describe the course as a combination between jackfish and wasu a combination wow nice High Praise for number 50 whatever in the country har wasu yeah I praise this is this is like half of that so I ended up carrying my bag which I haven’t done in a long time and it was I was it wasn’t that bad no wasn’t that bad cuz it was slow and whatever like you’re not having to rush wasn’t that bad Prett flat course my feet were sore by the end of the day and I because I wear shoes the whole time so that kind of sucked but it’s pretty flat um but yeah I enjoyed the course what else was I going to say oh back to co pins they we played uh mini up there mhm and they had po pool noodles in the holes still yeah probably never took them out just never took them out how is that where they can’t get them out where can’t get them out are they’re they’re like they but they were only in like 12 of the 18 H so were the sticks the flags permanent in there like couldn’t even pull them out there’s no sticks in mini golf there just holes yeah yeah yeah otherwise you’d have Cano getting what do you mean most have scks in mini golf yeah yeah they have the numbers on yeah and then you like the practice thing and you just pull up the pull up your ball after no not not the courses I play the Tiger Woods course and Phoenix have pins I don’t think so I don’t believe so no they don’t have pins none of them have pins uh and then we went to we went to Sandy Bay and they had like this giant apparatus thing in the water so the kids just love that and like I recommend it that’s just unless you have meniscus in your knees do not go and and my advice to you would be don’t try to don’t think that you can do everything within 5 Seconds of go getting on the apparatus I did and I fell into the water like instantly like hard I’ve always I’ve always watched those uh like uh what are the like the the new mxc’s but white white boat I’ve always watched that I’m like these people suck they’re so dumb but I think it situations any people like us would just be like yep I can do this and then you absolutely just get smoked so slippery yeah it’s so s it looks like it’s so easy and you should be able to do it like how do they not know that that one’s going to come out and punch them in the head and knock them off but it’s hard you’re not ready there’s a way I wonder if there’s a way or a something you can watch mxc on probably YouTube I guess TV still exist got all these streaming services and you can’t even watch mxe yeah the [ __ ] probably well it’s probably cancelled for sure is it that bad prob it was pretty bad sorry I’m staring over at Cano’s computer they score seven runs seven runs in the bottom of the first the Millers did I knew we should have went to this POD at they Merc already we should have should have started late I should have went to the start of the game you got your gch hanging out again tonight e even after all those even after those comments week so many people why is K’s gch hanging out of his shorts chur guy walks around naked he’s a showman that’s right yeah uh Churchill boo count 19 so couple extra drinks this week 543 and 225 just 6 were you at 607 wow it’s not even close I didn’t think you were that far uh mine’s fairly quick Harv’s got a couple weeks I think to catch up on three weeks usually probably don’t uh played in a tournament over the weekend went to the brother-in-laws in verden a little fourman cash scramble uh we couldn’t have played much better we had one how many teams uh I don’t know there would have been like it’s only a nine hole course so they can get I guess two on each te we were playing as eight sums so 72 yeah there might have been a couple more players they had had two uh on a few extras but okay ended up getting second we made a bad poor poor par when we drove the green and ended up just having a shitty chip and didn’t make a pot so we ended up losing but we won fourman scramble yeah oh my downhill chip from like five yards we both rolled too far or we all rolled too far so uh W our money back but then we did the horse race after and that went down to two men and Jason and I winded up winning so ended up winning a couple hundred bucks and kind of just hung out for the weekend so it was nice um other than that just kind of winding obviously Summer’s winding down I actually went back to work this morning Summer’s winding down so your golf games winding no this morning but then you golf this afternoon correct yeah okay and then tomorrow and Wednesday working yeah working tomorrow working Wednesday working Thursday mornings then gone no all day and then golfing every day the following week yes yeah winding down winding winding down is winding down we’re getting there yeah the first part of statement was correct well golf definitely is definitely is uh other than that that’s it so 22 drinks on the week uh 572 on the year oh boy 25 away yeah well we got E8 this oh I’m driving the van to Swift so I’m barely going to have any this weekend on Friday that’s helping my booze count Big Time Al go um yeah I I missed last week I was going to call in but then I was fishing and I just didn’t want to so I just kept on fishing we knew you weren’t calling in I figured you’d do that never probably didn’t have the microphone ready um well we had it there it was just other than that didn’t do much work is slow right now golfed a bit I guess uh played men’s night won some money off Matty B and the other guy we played a Robby oh yeah yeah yeah luckily they put a limit on how much money we could win or it would even got worse you played Vegas yeah we played Vegas yeah withas Vegas left right yeah just have me and canoer on the team like 15 of the 18 holes uh yeah so felt bad for Robbie so Robbie was on the wrong side of I think five birdies that night oh yeah that’s a killer we played we played five man Vegas in our group it was kind of fun I created that game did you play the one I created no I I’m adjusted it had to yeah so someone I don’t know if any listeners wrote there but my my idea for fiveman Vegas and it could be an actual idea is you either play Left Right and the guy in the center is the guy in the center was is separate on his own and if he birdies he steals all the ticks of the other two teams whoever beats the other team gets him if not he has no he has no skin he can’t lose he can only win because he’s technically whatever yeah you can’t lose you can only win and that’s the that’s the positive play we played middle guy can lose and it’s just his score twice if he makes a four he’s 44 see I don’t like that it was great worked out perfect I don’t love that you should have played with us then you would have loved it no I would have hated it and I would have left I would why you not like it I mean you could lose money is the middle guy why not be reward you should be rewarded for being the guy in the middle don’t make don’t make a bogey from the middle of the Fairway then well you could be left you could two guys could be more left than you on one and you’re still left yeah know if you make birdie let’s say a part four if you make birdie and you’re 33 do you flip both teams oh yeah yeah so you can win double better and I won the game so I was obviously obviously like it and then I played on Sunday morning um mornings are still great you guys great freezing cold now it was one degree the other day there is nothing wrong one degree it was 16° this morning morning no one played in that one degree I’m saying when I played golf it was totally fine there’s nothing wrong with golfing and pants and a layering piece there’s nothing wrong with it the aring the argument Still Remains you can choose like a handful of mornings to play but there are very few evenings where you’re like I’m not going to play yeah the morning was better today than the evening is tonight what it’s perfect out there right now it’s absolutely perfect finish if you played right now wouldn’t yeah and you started four and it was windy it wasn’t windy this morning oh my God what was it gusting to 12 oh was blowing my trees over in the backyard uh anyways I played Sunday and I was actually playing very well I was one under after 13 wow and then uh through in a guy had these 14 mgram whatever pouches and I’m like I’ll give one of those the Swedish ones yeah yeah and then I don’t know I guess hit me a little harder when bogey bogy par bogy par finished so not a terrible finish not terrible but yeah I was also those without penalty Strokes on any of those just a couple B breaks not canoe but uh yeah I had zero drinks for the last two weeks so wow good are you going to have some drinks this weekend or you going to be [ __ ] you’re driving I can drive I don’t care oh wow music to my ears take that back well I guess my count away with it no he’s not driving he’s drinking you’re not just punishing me for all these golf events when you’re my partner two two times this year two wasn’t it no last year Legends yeah yeah uh all right let’s talk about the Windom Championship were we starting with Aaron Ry or we starting with whatever the hell coocher did to the entire we should probably start with Ry let’s just start with him for five minutes so here’s the move on did Ry win or did grayer lose oh Gran lost that three putt was awful like it just sucks when you see a guy that you know needs it needs it and just kind of flubs it away he needed it way more than Ry way more yeah ry’s good ry’s ahead of spe in the world rankings and JT and Fitzy and day and Lowry and mini that’s insane yeah WIS are big it’s crazy how you can have you can just shed um like a stigma like Aaron Ry was always like the two gloves or whatever black glove two gloves yeah two gloves and it’s just like that guy is a bit of a weirdo like iron covers iron covers all this stuff and then all of a sudden they start playing really well and it’s like oh turns out they’re not just a side show they’re actually very good they saying like the iron cover thing I saw I think on PGA Tour today it’s like the iron cover is actually a pretty endearing story because his dad they didn’t come for much money and his dad bought him the nicest clubs and to keep keep them nice Dad would wash them and whatever and now it’s just an endearing thin when like last year was just a weirdo yeah yeah but it’s pretty cool story coming from like getting one of the um the exemptions I guess from the DP World Tour and then him coming out and having all of this success right like he’s ahead of those what you would name six guys off right six very wellknown pretty impressive will he break the two glove stigma of being uh regular with the hookers holy Tom me too close oh what happened to Tommy G is in jail I don’t know he plays the odd time smaller events yeah uh fun fact about Aaron Ry he once made 207 10f Footers in a row yeah that’s insane record he was trying to beat was 136 I trying to or the record he did beat yeah yeah well he went to go beat it and be Beat It by what 71 I once missed 207 10f Footers in a row I believe it um now we’ve been seeing how he’s kind of becoming more likable this might change it best buds with Billy horel oh boy really yep they live like I don’t know if they’re neighbors but they live very close to each other now he moved to Florida and uh I guess horel was like cheering him on to win the whole back n like they were playing together and he was like giving him tips oh wow telling him like stay in the moment all this stuff is was Billy in the tournament he was like fifth or sixth but out of it he couldn’t catch yeah I was just saying like what what type of tips like is that allowed can a guy who’s already played the hole go back and just like help his buddy no but like so that’s allowed but you can’t tell the guy what club you hit well you know what I mean like I don’t know if it against the rules if you played in the morning like hit the ball here I think it was like mental stuff you’re going to do it like just stay in the moment but that might be more helpful than telling me you I hit six iron could be I don’t know is it is it against the rules to text the guy yes how would they find that I don’t you have your phone you can look at your phone but you can’t like if I text you and you’re on the golf course you look at it and you read it that’s illegal you no but what about if you played in the morning and I play in the afternoon and you’re done 18 and I haven’t teed off yet could you just like yes give me all the Intel I think so cuz you haven’t started your around yet they’ll already know the pins and everything I know but you could think well hey this one when I played it was number eight was downhill and it was don’t miss here thing yeah yeah I guess I don’t know I mean probably should in the spirit of the game yeah but I don’t think they could ever catch you and anything but good for Aaron Ryan yep um Matt coocher and that’s it well we should talk about grayman he did blow that one pretty bad but he does a backto back seconds yes in his last two tournaments and he finished in the top 50 so he’s in the Signature Events next year yeah he did have a very good end of the year yeah wow very good end of the year and came a long way from him being the I gave him to you as like a joke early picks oh yeah long time ago and yeah and they made a little joke in his postgame interview with uh Bal onas there about going to talk to the courses about not putting C paths on the right side near the OB cuz he hit the car path when OB when he made that quad right yeah yep guess yeah good for him yeah coocher let’s get to coocher what do you guys think that cheap skate no one wants to be that guy he said no one wants to be that guy but then he went ahead and was that guy you could tell he got a lot of flock last thing when the way that the way that he came out and talked about it today yeah his PR guy or girl must man you can’t do this CU like there’s all these stories about how much it meant and the difference from him making par to birdie to bogy is like 50 Grand and he’s made 30 million it wasn’t that it was if he made par he got to 103 and kept his card no he had no chance at keeping his card 125 get to keep it oh I see he already had his card locked I’m pretty sure well no I think if he bogied he would have fell out oh maybe if he Bogi because he at like 112th or something yeah and then he parred and got 11th or whatever he finished and got up to 103 I was trying to follow his um comments after the round where he’s like yeah I just I was in a bit of trouble and I didn’t I didn’t want to hit a shot that was bad and then his second shot today was out of the middle of Fairway was he talking about 17 I think was his third no no no oh yeah no he he took a line of sight drop into the middle of the Fairway he got relief that was his first thing he did this morning was he got relief oh so that’s what it was so he didn’t want to rush he knew that he was going to be in trouble so he didn’t want to rush that ruling and be in the dark that’s probably cuz he would have slowed it all the way down maybe there’s maybe a little bit of but the sense he got roasted for it though so I don’t think everybody else like Sunday night he was like I was trying to set an example for Max about every shot’s important or something like that it was something rid like meanwhile that guy just goes up and two putts and gets second but that was weird for sure but yeah this morning he goes out there and yeah gets like a substantially better yeah it was right in the middle of the Fairway yeah lovable doofus and then he almost chipped in for birdie yep but yeah I don’t know it’s I think it was a combination of uh is that nine nothing in the first nine nothing in the second so here’s a question if us three would have went to the game tonight you think it’d still be nine nothing no it’d be z z probably going to extras and we wouldn’t have fought until 11:30 you believe in the butterfly effect I do big time are you going to bump into the pitchure and do something messed up might have made might have saw those shorts before the game and been like whoa that’s all weird and then he’s like got the heie jeebies for the game you know you never know it would still be the one thing I am excited about is that it’s N9 nothing we’re going to be done this pod in a half an hour and I’ll see the last six Innings of this game yeah or you walk in you swat at a wasp cuz there’s wasps everywhere there and then it flies on the field stings a pcture in the hand and now everything Chang or maybe we’re sitting in a spot and then some other people that were going to sit there go and sit behind the dug out and they’re loud there’s all kinds of fact need a tennis racket we might be down n nothing right now that being said that butterfly effect movie I can’t watch that thing anymore like it is I’ve been watching it forever it’s very very weird I’ve seen it twice more than once I’ve seen it Twi the Ashton Ker one yeah now second one I don’t know but it’s good I used to like Amy Smart a lot but in when she’s the drug addict in that movie kind of was a little offputting I’m G to watch that tonight yeah if I can if I cannot find mxc somewhere it has to be all right let’s move on to news well there’s still L we should talk about Luke Clanton he did have his third top 10 as an amateur and the only person to do that in the last 60 years is Jack Nicholas so it’s kind of a big deal all right well that’s all you need to say Clon Canadians nichas and Canadians y oh you ready for them MH uh so I guess nobody jinx slan this week nope but maybe we should have done something different because he didn’t he bogied 18 again he needed he needed to finish first I’m pretty sure right he had to win yeah yeah so senson was t7 Sloan T12 Hughes T28 hadwin T28 you must like this place though Taylor and silver miss the cut R loves this place I should have picked uh so then the FedEx Cup standings for the Canadians pendrith is in 27th he’s leading the way Connor’s 30th hadwin 37 Hughes 48 Taylor 52 and then senson just missed at 76 that’s crazy that Taylor’s 52 yeah and that senson missed didn’t he win this year no that was last year was last year yeah Taylor Taylor won this year yeah and then Silverman was 109 and Sloan was 175 so but 175 is a cut off for different uh yeah I think top 175 is like conditional yeah so he just got condition and you got to remember that there’s all that one extra spot cuz of muray right so he’s actually 174 uh I think he’s out of the standings now he’s actually 173 they adjusted it again today when I looked slan yeah oh good oh sorry my bad 126 to 150 is conditional status but so not quite just has to go back down to playoffs and get one of those just go back to uh Aces birthday shots the week uh Aces Lucas Clover made an ace this week and uh what’s his name Alex heith no yep that’s the linebacker for theith no Trevor heith heith had his third Ace of the Year third Ace on tour this year jeez not Alex it’s definitely not Alex now I said interesting picking up I think so Robert I don’t know uh birthdays uh friend of the Pod Cade mhm I don’t know how old though I forgot to ask him Joe got to guys got to be 30 short name like Ned or Mo Joe was 160 in the FedEx uh anyways shots of the week uh mine is the coocher chip today on Monday no way it was a great chip and no one got to see it no I just that whole that video is something else where he just walks off and there’s no one there then this lone man just shakes his hand probably the cans the other thing I didn’t quite understand and I mean I understand it but not to the level that it was overblown is like all the people they’re saying that had to come back and stuff like that if I’m running that tournament I’m not even touching the course that night the next morning he gets to play it exactly how a R overnight and one person should be there to uh to make him sign a scorecard that probably is what happened there’s no way they went out and cut everything I would guess that they did they got to cut it for the day so why wouldn’t they just cut it I just wouldn’t have done anything it’s be like yep no it’s just yeah just regular course of action like whatever they would normally do after a tournament they just did that maybe didn’t even touch 18 because they knew he’d be done by the time they got there but all the like oh all the staff have to come back no they don’t no no one’s going to run on you don’t need all the volunteers on the side just literally have one dude there just be like make sure he puts it in do you think his caddy got paid a little bit extra for extra extra days work couple 50 bucks probably isn’t there like a call out thing where you get paid three hours or something well he was there like doing balls and you did like the full prob got paid he did the full warmup from what I saw yeah [ __ ] sakes he should have showed up one minute before he had drivers well he was doing everything like he was on the Range hey how about that Wagner and his first ml at bat double neat great trade um uh news uh there’s a new event coming to the PJ tour next year I believe Wells Fargo backed out so it is now the truest Championship I don’t know what qu Hollow well it’s played at the Philadelphia Cricket Club next year cuz qu Hollow is hosting a major back to qu Hollow in 2026 um so that’s fun I guess uh next uh John Daly and Bryson are doing a breaking 50 I think they shot it I don’t think it’s out yet is it out it’s not out no but it uh did we talk about that last week no no it happened on uh Twitter and it’s like let’s make it happen and it seemed like it happened like one day later yeah can you like for those guys they can yeah it’s just like hey camera guy we’re going tomorrow to wherever John Daly is or John dy’s coming to us let’s go do it okay yeah cuz he doesn’t to worry about playing on the live at all yeah they’re playing this week oh well can we use can we use this as a lead into the Bryson stat right underneath posted today that he’s ninth on the PGA money list in four tournaments he played the four majors he’s ninth on the money list oh he had a first and a second didn’t he still it’s just insane and he’s won more money on the PGA tour than he has on live this year he sucks on live he’s great on the PGA but he’s ninth and he’s Scotty Sheffer is four times as much money up yeah yeah that’s my next one uh Sheffer won the Comcast business top 10 so that’s another 8 million uh he’s up to 36 million in earnings so far this year with two10 million purses and the PIP or whatever you didn’t listen to pod last week we already talked about this well then why was it posted again not really oh I supposed yeah we it was the it was the Reel The Reel we made said would you trade and I said he’s made 50 he could make $50 million year oh well that was just part of it yeah y I know it was posted part of it yeah and I didn’t post it it is wild to think that he could win $50 million outside of sponsorships and all that stuff on the tour alone $50 million yeah it’s insane that’s Pat Mahomes money yeah but he earned it that’s what I mean though he did yeah he earned it the best guy well finally these Comcast business top 10 some of that isn’t that earn but are a little yeah I don’t like him um speaking of things I don’t like um Tyler maen won the Canadian amateur at Riverside sesting Golf of country is it you don’t like it because he’s American correct I don’t think that should be allowed like they had Americans they had Europeans they had these things like and Garrett rang got DQ yeah that’s on the next Point yeah he I haven’t heard anything else about that I don’t know if you guys have incorrect scorecard yeah there’s got to be a reason just use golf genius cuz what would have happened if he won that thing like it’s so he like imagine second what was he no he was second he was third oh third and got DED only $1,000 though but still I heard I heard lots of good things coming from sasun though about this this Duo of courses oh [ __ ] they they were in unbelievable shape yeah I still don’t like that American one yeah I don’t like that either like it’s not your event what about a can non Canadian win the Canadian open yeah that’s a PJ Tour event where they have the US amateur anybody can win that yeah I know you shouldn’t allow that should be for us win your National event I can somewhat see the gpe for sure yeah because it is your amateur EV your National M because like I don’t know I think if they wanted to you like American golfers would come up and win this thing all the time if they wanted to like play more golf they can whatever well I would say a lot of these gu well not yeah the majority of these guys do play a lot of golf but I mean like you think what’s crazy about this too is like this Ma I would imagine he tried to qualify for the US amateur mhm that started today yeah but anyways so he comes up and win this Canadian one and yes there were good players there but you go in the US one you got to play Luke Clanton yeah yeah that’s like so maybe that’s why they have a chance at these other ones I guess now he gets to go to the Masters who does for winning the Canadian amateur for the Canadian mid oh no never sorry that’s the US Open he gets to go to US Open not the master US Open yeah yeah well that’s good for him I guess but I still don’t like it don’t like one bit uh rip Chi-Chi Rodriguez that’s a tough one tough one I mean alltime one of the best golf Clips ever from The Big Break where he had to shatter the glass and hit the frame and it came back and hit him in the nuts yeah one of the best Personalities in golf ever for sure yeah yeah he good from Death To Life uh Ricky Fowler announced his new baby girl came into the world that’s second right second one yep Nelly Fowler Nelly Nelly wow IE though not y I don’t know which one I prefer I’m a a you’re that’s how you spell her name no Nell is a y is it yeah like if someone was going to nickname Me Nelly because my last name is Nelson if you if you did I it look nickname iie would look dumb oh yeah I got news for you change that in my old messages you are now Nelly you’re you’ve I had a Bor uh well yeah you’re B so he’s Bor in my phone because I accidentally mistyped Brock once yeah so it says Bor yeah so I just have never changed it but no one group chats now Bor was supposed to be his pod name too and he vetoed it Bor mine sometimes auto corrects to Brick okay I think actually I’m not going to change it in there I’m just going to I’m just going to say Nelly what do you think hey I’m going to say Nelly what do you think about this Nelly you in for I don’t mind Nelly I.E Nelly no I don’t like that yeah Nelly you in for men it’s just too long it’s just too long some people do call me it actually well what do you think about people whose nicknames are longer than their actual name stupid it’s not allowed that’s stupid yeah I just I never get it I never get it the whole point of a nickname Matty B Matty ball game is longer than Matt for sure yeah that yeah no but I just don’t like it but my last name my last name those are all shorter than my last no but it’s not though your nickname is usually based off your last name it’s got to be shorter yeah like if you throw yeah yeah yeah it’s never based off your first name it’s always based off your last name how can I shorten someone’s last name and anyone that puts a y on the end of their last name that’s not a nickname yeah cuz it’s longer than your last name unfortunately for you is iie is still shorter than your last name no it’s not it’s exact same amount so just another way of putting it it’s like Cano and Cano same same length Cano might be my new favorite uh gr McDow was suspended by Liv for a tournament and finded 125k for using generic Vicks from the pharmacy yeah but they’re just doing that to just show that they care a little bit well also think it ain’t the vix yeah if anything that’s exactly what it is how could like vix vapo rub yeah yep like what that seeped into your skin and you failed a piss test it don’t add up I yeah it can’t be the luses no it can’t be but anyways yeah that happened I just can’t believe that Liv is actually enforcing that small drug infraction take things seriously that’s what exactly what I women not being fully covered reporters like they don’t like these things that’s exactly what I’m saying they’re just doing it to prove a point that they kind of are trying to and his little holy and nice Po and his little comment about uh on this tour they actually care about that stuff well PJ tour just does it in secret well they do anyways am I Am I Wrong uh last uh piece of news here before we go around the world a little bit let’s go uh brand Saker was named a Vice Captain for Keegan Bradley’s y um now all we need now is just duffner to be the one of the other ones I hope so it would be something like just get all those early 2 or late 2000s major winners yeah in uh on the rider Cup team love it love it uh champions tour the Boeing classic Stephen Ames y saw that finally didn’t he defend that title Birdie the last right bir the last to win I thought he won last year and it said defend the title but maybe not no that might be right uh interesting trophy like a glass like Globe like orb like that’s interesting like a fortune teller’s orb oh yeah but like a globe I assume for flying all over you ever done you ever done fortune tellers or uh tarot cards no would you assume that this is a new trophy then you’ve obviously never seen it before or don’t remember see don’t remember I’ve never uh so aler was T2 burnhard longer was eighth so what is more impressive burnhard longer coming back and being able to compete again after what he’s gone through or the run from Al aler on the champions tour since he’s joined because out of the 66 tournaments alur’s played in on the champions tour he has 49 top 10 I say that again [ __ ] that’s a tough 49 of 66 our top 10 holy and he’s a guy that Monday queed and then correct getting play going in like three years hot Yeah by a mile I think it’s by m his first year he played 10 tourament he had nine top 10 but he’s what 55 and longer is like pushing 70 isn’t he he is 70 something I think so I know it’s tough that’s tough oh man that might be your best question ever on the Pod I think it’s still I think it’s aler like 66 66 is definitely aler then but like I shouldn’t say only but yes yeah aler has probably made I don’t know 10 million bucks just in these last four years on the champions tour yeah you’re probably right I think it’s got to be aler like cuz burnhard I’m not saying aler wasn’t good but he came back from an injury that’s that’s the that’s kicker severe injury severe injury 65 m he’s a specimen specimen yeah it’s something like I was trying to look like I think aler only has like one finish outside of the top 30 in any of his events holy man that’s that’s tiger esque it’s uh it’s something for sure uh anyways corn fairy the Pinnacle Bank Championship won by Matt mccardy um all the Canadians missed the cut here unfortunately kraton papino baitman and yellow maraju uh but it was kind of the weak of the gusis yeah all three of them all three of them played and their the daughter SLS sister was like the opening starter announcing them to tea off yeah CU they all play in the same group yeah uh the dad was 21st the two boys missed the cut still got it yeah yeah alltime he doesn’t have to walk around naked uh no tournament on the PG of Americas and no tournament on the DP World Tour then the LPGA the Olympics went on Lydia Co one so now she has a gold silver and bronze in the Olympics and golf and for whatever reason this got her into the Hall of Fame yeah so they do something different they it’s like points for everything you get you get a point she was apparently one point shy coming into the obviously into the Olympics and then the gold Med medal got her over the hump so they and one of the youngest ever I believe they have a metric into and then they also obviously have some subjectivity to the other yep Hall of Famers I don’t mind that you have a certain well there are there are unofficial metrics in most sports like if you score 500 goals in the NHL you’re in the Hall of Fame probably mhm the thing is like she’s only 35 no she’s 27 she’s 27 I’m pretty sure she’s 27 I thought it said 35 it’s easily confused oh yeah 27 years old yeah so and she was talking about maybe retiring so at the end but that’s what I don’t like like you’re 27 in the Hall of Fame like the Hall of Fame should be like after your but she started when she was like 15 you should at least have to be like 30 35 like that’s yeah but the women’s side is much different classic age yeah but I would just say she has to retire then and then you get in yeah that is the one that is the one weird thing qualif Phil was in I don’t like that either Tiger’s in now I mean he’s basically done got it well he is you guys look at me like at least he put basically in there yeah feeling nice today um love that Brooke Brook Henderson was 13th Elena sharp was 42nd and then you see that Morgan pressle dropped that F bomb when referring to Brooke Henderson during the Olympics oh yeah that was a big can fir it up um and not the jiren Duran FB one yeah you had to get that one in there too um my God I I had a vested interest I bet 365 had a bet boost for Scotty and Nelly had very very good odds to both win Nelly has a terrible first round great second round third round she’s right in the hunt and then another quad On a par three she just can’t get stop getting well the 10 obviously in the US Open yeah on the part three but she has alltime blow up holes and then she’s still in it I don’t unfortunately she I think she had another triple on Sunday yeah she did really but she’s just like from the middle of the Fairway 150 yard she had a quad a quad and a triple and she was so seven over and I think she finished like six shots back yeah it’s like if you can just like rain in the quads how does That Swing produce those ER shots no idea it’s like a robot wild that’s it that’s it pick recap so the slide this week was actually incorrect I said Canin messed up but then it went back and looked and bronal was actually at 29 not 30 for points but now he’s ahead so now he won the week so the standings are brono 31 Matty B 31 Harve 177 can 21 I did that in complete out of order but we’re tied nice I’m glad that I’m glad that now my tank is complete and now I can try again what tank well I needed to people to still listen to pick so I could win by so even though even though you’re making deals with Cano so that you could get Xander and all these things well it almost worked well brell had Eric Cole 7th Harris English wasn’t in the tournament so I don’t know who gave him him so that’s 68th and Denny McCarthy 33 for a 36 average that won it that won it I got second you guys gave me something shat who missed the cut 67 uh Davis Thompson 12th and I mean you I was supposed to get Ry and then you guys change it Canoa is lobbying hard we give you Ry instead of Davis Thompson yeah yeah one point Thompson th and then I had Cooper muscleman uh who also missed the cut for 49 average didn’t make it E and then Matty B had Steven Jagger miscut Nikolai hogard miscut JT post and miscut 67 average oo Cano had Dunlop miscut 67 baa miscut 67 will Z miscut 67 for a 67 average wow that might be the first time ever we had a tie with six miscuts it’s tough that’s gross tough so no picks this week who gave there’s no picks this week no there’s no tournament oh St Jude’s in two weeks yeah why BR was lobbying for skip pod I would assume yeah that that in million other Reas how about this we this week how about going in the next we could we could have no pot next week we’re not we’re not recapping the Green Brier I mean we could well St J when the PGA Tour takes a break we take a break should be how it is pronos look at them I don’t care good thing you’re not naked over there well can’s already missing it so might be worth a Miss also I’m pretty sure they’re playing this week it’s not this it’s got to be this week they they’re playing this oh yeah it is the 15th oh boy I was going to say I was like I had my weeks so many week on holiday all time I’m like it’s next week wondering what was going on there well now sorry Bron now we have to have a pod next week well well and then he also said Silly Season so I’m like what does that mean it’s playoffs and then I’m like oh maybe it means there’s no tournament this week and I got all mixed up on my days I meant that we can be skipping pods during Silly Season no problem yeah but not it’s not silly seon now are you doing a Green Brier preview I do have one it’s very quick St Jude do you have both oh sorry I only have St Jude I’m not going to do I was just pointing out that there is Green Brier this week live green so we got to make picks I guess uh so FedEx St Jude this week TPC Southwind in Memphis Tennessee par 70 playing 7,243 yards uh this is the first playoff event as we have kind of already T touched on uh featuring the top 70 players in the FedEx up Victor Perez uh comes into this week sitting in that 70th Place uh he made a pretty clutch save I believe on the 72 hole to actually retain his spotter well clutch still nonetheless that’s why I didn’t include it in the Glover won here last year ended up being two consecutive weeks um beating Patrick can’t lay in a playoff when he hit it into the water um we talked about Perez already we have zator Hughes and Jake knap are the ones that are just inside the top 50 right now obviously going in for next week and then we have Taylor English and Rogers just above that 50 spot um so they’re going to need to look to have a good week uh and then there are a couple big names fairly big names um that are going to really need to have a good week uh in order to make it to next week so we have Victor hin at 57 miny at 62 and Jordan speed at 63 doesn’t speed a makeing it he’s already talking about surgery yeah he won’t make it far if he makes it the next week and then that might probably end up being it for him you can take plus 5,000 and above on bet 365 yeah 51 yeah Lowry and above yep’s up so don’t take Jordan Speed is what you’re saying har take I mean I wouldn’t maybe har was wrong maybe he was doing that on purpose I didn’t do any prep because I didn’t think there was a tournament this week so I don’t know who still the same prep well I got to get see what my gut says I don’t if I can do it on the Fly I mean I’m also in last so yeah who cares cool jacket green jaged who gives a [ __ ] I’m gonna take Min Lee okay are you I don’t know why just want to cheer for him I’m gonna give Bron El Scotty sheffler oh a little side deal that’s not on the pot I love that I don’t know I didn’t I didn’t make

what is it in the third fourth um top of four top four [ __ ] it might be a money balls scenario oh I don’t know we got a best bet or no that’s oh did he say he’s robbed no he I think he did yeah so
