Whoops. We can put that at the start.
Okay, we'll do that really quickly. No, this was talking soccer.
And I was talking soccer. Ronaldo's out.
Ronaldo, by the way, it's time that we have an honest conversation about Ronaldo. I don't even think he's a top three Ronaldo.
Yeah, I agree. Go off, King.
You've got

Ronaldo. You've got

Rinaldinho, who is

named Ronaldo. Then you've got

fat Rinaldinho

and fat Ronaldo.

And Pinaldo.

He's number six

overall Ronaldo. Agreed.

There's our talking soccer.

We're brought to you by our friends at Chevy. Also, Chiesa is going to be one of the best players in the entire world.
I'm just putting an eyeball stamp on it. I said that last week.
Then he had that awesome goal. Chiesa, Chiesa, Chiesa.
Iron Robin no longer playing for the Dutch. Learned that today.
What's his name? Fulani. Fulani's not on Belgium.
Yeah. Brutal when you see your heroes go on.
Also, everyone was calling him 50, and then I looked him up, and he's one year older than us, so that really hurt my feelings. All right.
We're brought to you by our friends at Chevy, the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever. Silverado is strong, advanced, dependable, hardworking.
Silverado is dependable like the people who drive them. The design is big, bold, and commanding, and this truck turns heads.

the Chevy Silverado. I'm not a truck guy.
I'm an aspiring truck guy. I will be a truck guy at some point, and it will be a Chevy Silverado.

Oh no.

We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue.

And then we'll take it higher.

Oh we're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue.

It's part of my take presented by Far Stool Sports.

Welcome to part of my take presented by the Chevy Silverado, the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever. Today is Monday, June 28th.
And of all the things, of all the curses, of all the ways that Atlanta sports can circle the drain, I didn't see a ref's foot hurting Trey Young's ankle as one of the possibilities. So I'm looking at Trey Young's line here.
You played 39 minutes. He did.
He went out. He came back in.
But Trey does that a lot. He'll take a two-minute break and wrap up like he's been Roethlisberger.
Call out the AD. Yeah, exactly.
He'll just take, like, he does load management in the middle of games. I didn't realize.
So he basically landed, then kind of stepped on the ref's foot, and then turned his ankle. And if you're an Atlanta sports fan, you're like, are you serious? This is the way it's going to happen? I also didn't realize just how bad they zoomed in Trey Young's ankles are because he has like Forrest Gump braces on his ankles.
Did you see those things? I didn't see those. They're like hard plastic casts on his ankles.
So they were already a major concern. I see them.
Oh, yeah. That's weird.
They look like air splints almost. Yeah, those are the casts that they give you when they're like, hey, your ankles are trash, and we know you're never going to be running because you're not an athletic person.
Here, take these. Those look like the braces that they would put on your feet if your ankles were growing incorrectly.
Right. And it's like, don't take these off for two years, and they'll correct your bones.
If you have scoliosis of the ankle. As they grow.
Yeah. So that sucked, though, for Atlanta.
But the game, really, we've got to talk about Chris Middleton. The Chris Middleton legacy game.
20 points. Did he score 20 points in the fourth quarter? 20 points in the fourth quarter.
The Hawks scored 17. Is that correct? Well, the Hawks also, I think they scored two points in the last four minutes of the game.
That's tough to do. It is.
I'm confirming it. No, he scored 20.
20 points in the fourth quarter from Chris Middleton, 17 for the Hawks. He was lights out.
And this is, I mean, this is the Bucs. Like, Giannis is the guy, but if they can get someone like Chris Middleton or Drew Holiday to step up, maybe Pat Connaughton, they become a scary team.
And I know, Trae Young got hurt. Like, that sucks.
And he was shooting from the logo and doing all those things. And even that little stretch where he comes out, changes the flow of the game.
And I feel bad for Atlanta sports, but the Bucs deserve a lot of credit because not only did they win this game, but they easily won Friday night. And maybe the Hawks, like, we might overreact a little for game one.
I also think it's going to be very tough for the Hawks to win unless you have a Kevin Herter is unconscious game. Yeah.
If Red Velvet's unconscious, then you have a chance, and a pretty good chance of that. But tonight, I think he was, what, three for seven? Not a bad game, but he had 11 points.
And if he has like 20, 22 points, then the Hawks have a chance.

But if you don't get him involved, then like what?

Are you waiting on like Collins?

Are you waiting on?

Well, Bogdanovich has been hurt too.

Look at this.

We're like Hawks apologists now.

Yeah.

Well, we did.

We did picture them winning the championship.

I did though.

I did stop myself and said that I'm not going to overreact to game one

because I do think the Bucs are going to win this series.

And they, I mean, who knows?

The Hawks, the Hawks at this point though, every single, I was,

I'm going to go overreact to game one because I do think the Bucs are going to win this series. And they, I mean, who knows? The Hawks, at this point, though, every single, I was going into this game, I bet on the Bucs, but I said before I bet on the Bucs, I was like, I would have loved betting on the Bucs tonight, and then everything in my head was like, but Trae Young, but Trae Young, but Trae Young.
That's what he does. That's how much he can scare you, where it's like, everything says the Bucs are better than the Hawks.
They are. The Sixers were better than the Hawks, but Trae Young.
And that equalizes everything. It's also house money if you're a Hawks fan, if you're an Atlanta sports fan, because this is one where you're like, there was no expectation before the season started that you would even be here right now.
So it's not even really an Atlanta sports loss when you don't score more than two points in the last four minutes of the game. Because you shouldn't be here anyways.
I think they still know that. It's the window opening kind of loss.
Like there's certain losses when you feel like a window is opening, you can handle a loss. Because you're like, this isn't the end.
This is just the beginning. You've got to go through your lumps.
That's what these Hawks feel like. You know what this is, Big Cat? They've got to learn how to win in the playoffs right now.
Yeah. They've got to learn how to win different ways.
No, they've got to learn how to lose before they learn how to win. Yeah, so this taught them a very valuable lesson, which is score more than two points in four minutes of the game.
And watch out for the ref's ankles. Yes, look out for the ref's ankles.
The ref's ankles shouldn't have been there. But that is like, imagine if Trae Young is just...
Are you saying that it provoked? Yeah, it was. It did.
It provoked. Imagine if Trey Young is hobbled for the rest of the series.
That is very Atlanta. That would...
Now, if he had to have surgery in the offseason to clean it up, then that's very Atlanta. But either way, we're Hawks apologists and giving credit to the Bucs.
I do think the Bucs are going to win this series in five or six. But, you know, who knows? Trey Young.
Trey Young. You just got to say Trey Young at the end of every...
Everything nice you say about a Hawks opponent, you just say Trey Young at the end. That way you can never lose.
You know what? Trey Young is everything that was advertised and more. Yes.
That's true. How did Brooke Lopez end up with minus 17 on the plus-mise? He must have only played at the start of the game.
Well, no, he had 25 minutes. I don't know.
Stats lie. Numbers lie.
All right. People tell you numbers never lie.
They're lying. Okay, so that's part one of the show.
Download part two. We're going to talk about Clippers and Suns.
All right, part two is starting right now. Part two, Clip Suns.
Okay, let's talk about our Suns. Suns podcast.
Up 3-1, maybe the worst second half of a game I've watched in a very long time. It was bad.
And we had our one game earlier this postseason. We're like, it's kind of cool to see games that are like 75 to 79 in the last couple minutes.
Quick reverse on that take. It was painful.
I have some stats for you that really show how painful it was. The Suns scored 84 points.
That is the least amount of points in a win this season. They scored, they shot 24% in the second half.
They went 0 for 9 from 3 point. And the Clippers, and if you watch this game, you really know this stat really hits home.
The Clippers went an astounding 0-10 on go-ahead field goals. Because that was the entire fourth quarter.
It was essentially the Suns would be up 3, then the Clippers would get it to 1, and then the Clippers would miss. And then the Suns would get up 5, and the Clippers would get it to 1, and then the Clippers would miss.
And it would just go like that over and over and over while we were watching I think there was a moment it was about six minutes five minutes into the fourth quarter where it was four to two sons in the fourth quarter yeah and Chris Paul had what what very easily could have been like the worst fourth quarter performance of his career but he ended up making just enough shots to keep them ahead and free throws so he made all his, except for the last one? Yeah. So he was just bricking everything off the back rim.
But he would make one out of every, like, I don't know, three or four trips down the court. But the Clippers would make one out of every five trips down the court.
Yeah. So Chris Paul ended up looking like the hero in that game.
When if something is – if playoff P becomes playoff PP+, then he ends up actually winning that game.

It was tough to watch Ballmer because Ballmer— The mask. He looks like Hannibal Lecter.
Hannibal Lecter or like the Andy Reid mask where he has the barbecue rib rotating inside. Yeah, he had a different one two games ago that looked a lot more comfortable, and then he went back to the surgery mask.
He looked like Bane this time. He was cutting his face off.
It was like his... Remember the TikTok of the English dude who went outside and got a tan? And it's like you could see that? Yeah, that's what he...
It was so tight on his face. You know what he looks like now that I realize it with the bald head and the giant circular protruding mask? He kind of looks like a real life version of Homer Simpson.
Yeah. If that's...
If you draw a mouth on his mask, it would look a lot like that. But it was slowly starting to dawn on him during the fourth quarter of this game that maybe playoff Paul isn't exactly...
Well, I like that playoff Paul when you just said playoff Paul. Because that really kind of...
You would never trust playoff Paul. No, you're taking all the wind out of him.
I'm removing his nickname. But you could see him when Playoff P was missing some of those foul shots.
Ballmer was just looking down at his shoes like, I can't believe I'm paying this guy this much money. 14 times, 14 times in the last 10 years, Playoff P, Playoff Paul, has shot 25% from the field or less in a playoff game.
That seems not good. That's really bad if your nickname is Playoff P,

which if you had to ask him, I wish we'd someday get him on.

He has to regret that so, so much.

It's like big game James Shields.

You can't have a name like that,

and you're going to be mocked.

You're going to be constantly mocked.

Like Joe Theismann changed his name to rhyme with Heismann,

and then he lost the Heismann. Right.
The Kobe Stopper. The Kobe Stopper, Reuben Patterson.
You can't do that to yourself. But yeah, it was atrocious.
And we have to at least mention, the Clippers did get screwed. And I hate the rule, but there's two things going on right now, because the rule is the same rule that happened in Game 3, right? Yeah, Game 3.
Where if you hit the ball, if you basically pickpocket someone... Game two.
I thought it was game... Oh, it was game two.
Okay, yeah. With the value.
If you pickpocket someone and it technically hits their hand last going out of the... out of bounds, but you're the one who forced it, they will then be like, hey, it's your ball because the last possible second it was still touching campaign's hand, which was what it was in game four, campaign's hand as it was going out.
The refs, I appreciate the refs basically saying we're not doing this again because I wanted to go to bed, so I was like, this is awesome, and I also bet the Suns. But if you're're a clippers fan you have every right to be upset because the rule sucks but you can't just decide not to do the rule yeah one game after you you know did it two games ago like you rules are rules the rules are rules like the the there's and one hand the rule sucks we all think it's bullshit we all think that the game has gotten unwatchable at the end of these playoff games where it spends, you know, the last two minutes or 40 minutes of reviewing every single out-of-bounds possession.
That sucks. But you still have to do it.
You still have to look at it. Otherwise, we're just deciding game to game like whatever the rest feel up to.
I was appreciative, but I understand anyone who had the Clippers or was rooting for the clippers you have a very fair gripe and you should probably protest the league office yeah they didn't even know and you could tell too the refs like everyone was complaining about i think pat beverly was yelling and the rest were like nope we're just gonna fucking keep this going yep not gonna take a look at this one shout out to my mom by take, finally, after like 32, 33 years, actually ends up being correct when she's like, no, you can't stay up and watch the fourth quarter. The last two minutes takes 45 minutes.
She was exaggerating. Now it's exactly correct.
It's gotten insane. It was so bad that I actually thought, the thought occurred to me at the end of this game, what if we just got rid of replay in every sport?

I feel like we've gone so far in the direction of getting it right to the point where we're getting it wrong. And that sounds really deep because it is, but it's actually kind of true.
I enjoy sports more when we're not taking all these positives. That even goes for the NFL.
I was thinking, what if we just stopped reviewing everything in the NFL? I feel like that would be better. That's why the rule, the pass interference rule was the dumbest rule of all time when they're like, we're going to review something else.
Yeah, I mean, I would like there to be... Give a sky judge.
The problem is there are certain things that I really do want replay, but these are the... I think in basketball, when you're reviewing these late game, oh, it touched the inch of his finger.
Yeah, I'm fine with just getting rid of that replay and just living with the consequences. Which I know eventually will hurt me.
It will hurt everyone here because that's just how it rolls. But yeah, replay in this circumstance has completely ruined the watchability of the game.
Although there was that one play where it almost simultaneously hit off Paul George in somebody else's hand and the ref called a jump ball in real time. Just do that.
And then we saw the replay and it was like, that's really fucking close to being a jump ball. I don't know how that's a great call.
Yes. Yes.
It should also be mentioned though, but DeMarcus Cousins' intentional miss free throw at the end of the game was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. He just doesn't either know the rules.
I don't think he knows the rules. I don't think he cares.
Or he was like, fuck it. I'm just going to throw it as hard as I can and hope this works.
Yeah, I think that's probably what he was going for. Maybe he thought the refs were just not in the mood of calling things.
I think he was going to break the backboard. Yeah, maybe.
Was he trying to throw an alley-oop to himself off the backboard? Yeah, the game gets basically suspended. Because he hangs on the rim, breaks the rim.
That's actually, you could do a lot worse than that. He tried to throw the ball through the backboard.
It was amazing. It was hilarious.
It also is just so funny whenever he pops up in this series, or in the playoffs in general, you're like, wait, what? Clippers? Okay. Mike Greenberg's dumb rule.
If you had a guy like, remember Escalade from the N1 mixtape? Yes. Big boy RIP.
Take your time. A moment of silence for Escalade.
If you had a guy like that on your team, and you're trailing by like five points in the fourth quarter, two minutes left, could Escalade just go down and break the basket on purpose with a dunk? That's what Pookie Cousins was doing. Then they delay.
Then they bring out the backup basket, and then Escalade breaks it breaks it again. And then what are you going to do? You can't finish the game.
Although they changed the baskets after Shaq. They did.
They're very, very hard to break. It sucks.
Because a broken backboard was the coolest thing ever. Oh yeah.
I feel like it just never happens ever anymore. Shaq did that.
The only thing that was better than a step over was breaking a backboard on a dude. Shaq's legacy.
Whenever Shaq gets in arguments with Charles Barkley or anyone else, he should just be like, they literally changed the construction of the hoop because of me. Should we start talking about...
I feel like it's been a while since we've had a baby Shaq discussion in the NBA. Should we start talking about Aiton as baby Shaq, the Shaqtists? Well, no, there's no back-to-the-basket guys anymore.
Yeah. It's their saying it.
It makes sense, too. It's like at the end of the games when everyone's trying to find offense, there's no one you can just pass the ball down the post and get a basket.
I do appreciate DeAndre Aiton being like, Chris Paul has changed my life. And it's like we know because Chris Paul makes every big guy that much better because he basically just passes it to you in the best place possible.
But, yeah, Chris, it feels like it's Suns in five because Chris Paul was terrible. I think Chris Paul was also just gassed, and I don't think he had COVID, so I think he was just not all the way there from just sitting out for a couple weeks.
I do have a little bit of insider information. AJ Tedes is going to be at the game, fourth row.
Oh, okay. So just keep an eye out for her on TV.
So you're still talking to her? No, I don't talk to her. She DMs me.
You're not flying out? No, I'm not flying out. Got it.
Damn. I just thought I'd pass that along.
It seems like it's going to be a good morale boost to see her there. Yeah.
Whose jersey was she wearing? Although it might be the opposite. It might be the scene from The Godfather when they fly in the brother from Italy, and they're like, oh, no, my girl's here.
And then Devin Booker's like, my girl's here. And then Chris Ball's like, no, wait, that's my girl.
Yeah. They just go down the line.
I think they probably know. It's probably more of a concern for any girlfriends that might be in the stands.
Yeah, if they put them in the WAG section. I don't know about that.
Yeah, but it was a terrible game. Again, the refs screwed it, but they also helped us because they were like, this game is so hard to watch.
We just want it to end. But playoff P, I feel bad because he deserves credit for the Utah series, like I said a week ago, but he's gone back to playoff pit.
He just looks so sad. He's not taking games over at the end.
He's playing well, but they don't have Kawhi. They are playing a lot of games and not a lot of time.
Also, shout out Mike Breen with the line of the century when he was in Kawhi's going nuts. And Mark Jackson, unintentionally the funniest announcer of all time.

As they're showing Devin Booker, and it says Devin Booker fouled out,

Mark Jackson's like, Monty Williams wants to get Devin Booker out here because he's in foul trouble.

They're going to sub him out for defense and then bring him back in.

He's like, yeah, actually, that's true.

Six fouls is the most amount of foul trouble you can get out of. Yeah, and then about, like, I think five seconds later, he goes, he's got six fouls.
Six fouls. I fucking love him.
I love him. And we get deeper in the playoffs.
These guys, you get so used to hearing them talk that you start. It's like having family over for a weekend, and you hear, like, oh, man, that was stupid what you just said.
We're now living with Mark Jackson every other day, so every little thing he says, you're like, wait, what? That makes no sense. It's also like Thanksgiving where the longer you go, the drunker they get.
And you can tell he's already had a couple glasses of sunset blushing him. It's only going to get funner.
Yeah. All right, so let's talk some hockey.
boys we officially went to the last game

in the Nassau Coliseum. Yeah, RIP.
So shout out to us. Some people were trying to throw a jinx at us.
I don't know. I would say that's not our fault.
Jake wasn't there. We brought a win.
Yeah. Jake the Jinx wasn't there.
It did. That of all the ways you can lose in playoff hockey,

obviously losing in overtime Game 7 is the worst.

I still remember when the Kings beat the Blackhawks

and it's like watching it and being like, wait, it's over?

It's done?

But losing 1-0 on a shorthanded goal

and then just watching painfully as you can't do anything

is pretty far up there.

Yeah, shorthanded goal, 1-00 really no great chances for the islanders either nope they were like what once or twice they were able to center or across the puck and it went across the face of the goal and it's like maybe and nope there's a guy and he's five feet away oh and they also had the actually the most frustrating thing that can happen in hockey is when you pull the goalie

and the other team gets the puck on the other side of your goal and just burns like 30 seconds.

Just standing on the puck.

You sit there and you freak out and you're saying to yourself, how can this happen?

Get it out, get it out, get it out.

And you can't get it out.

That is the worst feeling in the world.

They did a great job literally standing on top of the puck.

I think that's all that they were doing.

And they would have a trap between the ice, the skate, and their stick. And they're like, fuck you, you're not getting it.
It's like a dog with a toy. And you're trying to get it out of its mouth and you just can't.
It's a bulldog at the park. Exactly.
With a tennis ball. And you weren't getting that ball back.
It was frustrating for the Islanders. That actually is a perfect analogy because it is when you're at the dog park and a bulldog gets a hold of the tennis ball you brought, you're just like, it's okay.
It's all right. We got more at home.
Yeah. It's all right.
So are we a Canadians podcast? Yeah. I mean, fuck Third Leg Greg.
Well, fuck the Islanders. Yeah.
Fuck the Lightning. I mean, not fuck the Islanders.
Okay. Yeah.
No. Fuck the Lightning.
Fuck Third Leg Greg. I hope your charity's run out of money, bro.
Like, I have no problem saying that again to you. I think the Canadians are now officially America's team.
It feels like it's coming home. Is it coming home? It's coming home.
It's coming home for the Canadians. I do.
Should we do a segment for our French listeners? Yeah. Le Canadien.
Give it to us. Give us some French, Jake.
Je m'appelle. Je ne sais pas.
Oh. What was that, Billy? Je ne comprends pas.
Okay, you know what? You can talk during this segment, but only in French. J'aime la granouille.
Ça rentre en la maison. I think that means it's coming.
Ça rentre en la maison. Croque, monsieur.
Oh, that's a delicious sandwich. Croque, madame.
Is that also a delicious sandwich? Oui, oui. Okay.
Jake? La coup revient à la maison. That was beautiful.
The cup is coming home. Yeah.
La coup revient à la maison. The thing that I would say, if you're a Canadian fan, you probably are confident in just the fact that everyone says Lightning in five.
Yeah. Everyone has predicted that the Canadians will lose every single round, and every single round, Carey Price has stood on his head.
And they don't have to really worry about the Russ versus Russ, because game one's Monday night. I'll say this about the Lightning.
They're what the French call les incompetents. Yeah.
Or fucking losers.

That's the translation.

All right, so that was our hockey talk.

Should we talk a little P.O.L.?

Talking about losers.

Nice segue.

I forgot to watch the game.

I'll give you a rehash, okay?

I looked at the box score.

Tell me why, Big Cat, we should not sell the team right now.

At the primetime music, ESPN?

Yeah, no, no, I'll tell you exactly what happened have you ever seen the movie old yeller uh-huh all right so the end of that movie that's what we need to do the water dogs they're fucking suck take them out back shoot them in the head not actually with with a bb gun right just inj Just injure him. With a water gun.
But yeah, they suck, man. I think Paul Rabel put them on prime time because as we discussed on Friday, he runs the entire league.
Either he or his brother makes every decision ever. I'm pretty sure he put us on prime time just to embarrass us.
Now, didn't the team that we played, weren't they good last year? They were good. Okay, they were good.
So everyone was saying to me. I don't embrace excuses.
I embrace solutions. Right.
So how are we going to most effectively kill this team? Well, so here's the thing. Everyone was saying to me on Saturday night, like, dude, it's not the Waterdogs aren't bad.
It's the Archers are really good. That doesn't fly for me.
I'm not. That's fucking.
You think Jerry Jones is cool with that? He's like, hey, the Packers are really good. It's not that the archers are really good that that doesn't fly for me i'm not that's fuck you think jerry jones is cool with that he's like hey the packers are really good it's not that the cowboys are really bad no fuck that right jerry's suck jerry's out here trying to win a championship every every single year and so i am putting it on the water dogs i think that as a podcast we need to throw down the gauntlet this weekend is a Big Cat, how...
Combo. We should get Cesar Millan on here to teach us how to train these dogs.
Yeah. How do you train an unruly dog? How about just shoot the fucking ball? You can shoot.
Yeah. Whoa.
Shoot more. You can just not look at them.
That's a good way to train a dog is to deny it attention. I said this before the show and I didn't know if I was going to say it on here but I'll just say it.
I think we should contact Mike Vick about coaching the water dogs. It's gotten to that point.
It's gotten to that point. I'm okay with that.
I hate this team. I want to put ice on all their boners right now because they don't deserve the name dogs.
I don't want to make this about dogs. I want to make them earn their dog.
Right. And they don't.
They have not done that yet. They're just water.
Water. You guys are water.
They're a puddle that we stomp through. You guys are pissed, actually.
Yeah. You're a piss puddle.
Either way, the guys seem like nice guys, so I'm rooting for them personally, but as a team, as a collective. Still the coolest uniforms.
Hate our coach. That's about it.
I'm going to move this. A lot of people thought that Jake was calling this game.
Oh, no. They turned it on, and they're like, where's Jake? Did they turn on, what's his name, Ryan Boyle? Bro? He was there.
Have you reached out to bro? I gave him a follow, nothing yet. He hasn't followed you back? Not yet.
Did we say that on the air, what his nicknames were? Yeah. Oh, we didn't.
Rip with two Ps in bro. Yeah, according to Wikipedia.
That's so sick. I'm looking forward to meeting him.
We got to give you a lacrosse nickname. I mean, Jake is a pretty good lacrosse name in general.
Marsh is also pretty cool. Billy, you should do that as one of your things at the end.
Come up with a lacrosse nickname for Jake. Alright, well, so Bro has not followed you back.
It'd be a shame if people tweeted, like, hey, dude, why don't you follow Jake Marsh back? Sounds like Trouble in Paradise, actually. Sounds like he's starting the beef.
That's fucked up. He's got four more weeks of games before working with me.
It's a long ways away. Okay.
Okay. Anything else? Oh, we had the first baseball substance ejection in the White Sox Mariners game.
This is great. Rob Manford finally has a head.
Did you see what they did with the glove? Yeah, they put it in a bag. They put it in like a plastic like a kitchen trash bag.
Trash bag, yeah. And then the announcer's like, and according to league protocols, this is being hermetically sealed.
They were trying to like use big words. No, they put it in a fucking hefty bag.
Yeah. And then they wrapped it around itself.
They did a piss poor job actually of wrapping up the glove. Yes.
Now there's my prediction, there's going to be a chain of custody issue that comes into play with the glove. The pitcher's going to peel it.
He's going to get off and Rob Manfred still won't have a head. Yes.
Yes. So yeah, I think it's so stupid.
It's just so fucking stupid. Baseball and also baseball revealed their all-star jerseys, which are atrocious.
But who cares? I can't get upset about it. Honestly, it wasn't as bad as I thought that they would be and they're very bad the away are bad the whites aren't that bad the blues were bad yeah listen I had that sentence all the way alright let's do who's back of the week and then we have Colin Morikawa on awesome interview in person interviews are back it feels great you know who else is back the cash app cash app is back the stock market investing through cash app buying bitcoin has never been easier and you can do it on the cash app it takes one second it links directly to your bank account you boom you hit boom buy bitcoin and then you can watch it every single day.

Okay, Hank, your Who's Back week who's back the week is banging chains yeah yes big time if you didn't see the clip uh it's on our instagram i'll try and explain it give it a little bit of context though it's an insane clip one of the one of the best banging chains videos i've ever seen the best actually i'll just say it but uh it was the pdga disc golf world championship so you know stanley cup world series whatever you want to call it for disc golf. James Conrad, it was the PDGA Disc Golf World Championship.
So, you know, Stanley Cup, World Series, whatever you want to call it for disc golf.

James Conrad, it was the 18th hole.

James Conrad was down by a stroke.

I don't know exactly how they worded it. Is it a hole?

Yeah, no, it's holes and strokes.

I don't know how they worded it in disc golf.

I'm assuming like regular golf.

Down by one going into the last hole.

He threw in a 247-foot birdie to push it into a playoff. Hole in one? Hole in one.
And he bent it around like a tree. It was a dogleg right.
Yeah. Full crowd.
It was insane. People went crazy.
Forced it to a playoff, and then he won the playoff. He did.
He won. I didn't follow up.
You knew that Paul McBeth was not going to be able to come back after that. Yeah.
All the momentum was on James Conrad's side. That was such...
I don't care if you... We obviously think that disc golf is a sport.
It's absolutely a sport. It's more of a sport than lacrosse.
But we... If you don't even think it's a sport, watching this moment has to get you pumped up.
It has to get you pumped up. It's any sport.
The pressure when you have live fans and it's like a moment like that. You have to have ice water in your veins.
You have to be an athlete. That was a big throw.
That was a big time. Big time players make big time throws, and that's exactly what he did.
I actually think that this is the most clutch play ever in the history of any sport. Like, name me a better shot than this.
The guy, well, the John Daly, when he won like the British Open, he had that crazy like chip in to force a new playoff. Then he lost.
I was going to say, when the dudes at the Travelers today played 17 playoff holes. Of the same hole.
Just getting pars back to back. Yeah.
The shot that Butler had against Duke that didn't go in. That was a better shot, maybe.
Patrick Mahomes' touchdown that was dropped. Oh, no.
In the Super Bowl. You know what's a better shot than that?

We talked about it a couple months ago.

The Joel Embiid rebound full-court heave that took place in like .5 seconds

that hit off the back of the rim, right?

No, no, did it go in and it didn't count?

I can't remember.

I think it just missed.

It just missed.

That's the best shot of all time.

Second best now behind James Conrad.

That shot was awesome.

Yeah, I watched the clip a hundred times. There's a million angles of it.
Angles, yeah. Goosebumps.
What is this? Oh, here it is. Jake's playing the Joel Embiid.
There's the miss and then the full court heave. Yeah, it hit off the back of the backboard.
Yeah, that would have been the best shot ever. That would have.
Patrick Mahomes, still. Greatest incompletion of my lifetime.
I that right? I'll always remember it. For Who's Back? Yep.
Yep. All right, cool.
Just one? For Who's Back? Just one. Who's Back? Got it.
My Who's Back of the Week is cinema. Cinema's back.
So F9 had a massive weekend at the box office, and Vin Diesel, our poet laureate. I like how you say it.
Say it again.

Vin Diesel.

I like it.

How do you say it?

No, you just really, there's a little extra emphasis on the soul, and I like it.

Vin Diesel, baby.

Yeah, I like it a lot.

Yeah.

Like, I love that.

I say Vin Diesel, so it's more of a Z.

It's like a bison or a bison.

That sounds like how Toto would say it.

Yeah, say it.

Give it to me again.

Hit me again.

I'm putting some fucking respect on his name, and you should do the same.

Hit me again.

Vin Diesel.

Yes, yes.

That's good.

So,

I'm going some fucking respect on his name. You should do this.
Hit me again. Vin Diesel.
Yes, yes. That's good.
So Vin Diesel. I'm hot right now.
Gave a quote and he goes, cinema is back. Hell yes.
Because F9 topped the box office this weekend. People are going back to the movie theaters.
You can't watch A Fast and the Furious. That's not an Amazon Prime purchase that you make in the comfort of your own home.
You need to go out around other people to watch. And they're not a sponsor of the show as far as I know.
But we had an extended conversation about how every Fast and the Furious is the same movie. And it kicks ass every single time.
Except for Hank. He doesn't like it.
Hank doesn't like it because he's a wet blanket. But they're in space now.
They're in fucking space. I just said we shouldn't do a review.
That's not what I said at all. I just said there's no point in doing a review because all the movies are the same.
I don't think that there's a franchise of movies that's better to watch stoned in your entirety than Fast and the Furious. Transformers.
No, I would say... Wrong.
Yeah, I don't know. Star Wars, maybe.
Never seen it. It's too long.
Black Hawk Down. I actually haven't seen Star Wars either.
We should see it sometime with Frank. Yeah, sure.
He'll just spoil everything that's happened. It'd actually be electric to hear Frank tell us the punchlines before.
That should be something that we do if we lose a bet where we live stream ourselves watching Star Wars for the first time. Yeah, yeah.
But yeah, cinema's back. So you hear that, Wes Anderson? You're fucked you're fucked it feels good vin diesel is here you got one who's back or two i just have the one all right that's it nice nice um okay what no i'm just surprised that's it yeah it's only one uh all right my who's back is i gave you the disc golf one superstars asking out of their uh asking off their teams.
Damian Lillard, it has finally happened. Chauncey Billups got hired.
There was a lot of backlash. I don't know if it's official yet.
I didn't know that Chauncey Billups had a rape allegation 25 years ago. He's going to probably be hired by the Blazers.
And then Chris Ball, or sorry, Damian Lillard. I don't know, Chris Ball.
Damian Lillard, there was an article, which essentially was Damian Lillard's agent, just hit up Chris Haynes at Yahoo and was like, Hey, what? Yahoo. I don't know why I said it like that.
Yahoo. He hit him up at Yahoo.
Although isn't it a Yahoo with the exclamation? It's a Yahoo. And essentially, it was just a press release for being like, Damian Lillard loves the fans, so don't blame him, but he wants out.
So it feels like it's going to happen. Yeah, the Chauncey Billups thing, I didn't know about it.
Were people waiting for him to get a job to bring this back up? I think so. So the Chris Haynes story was the second paragraph is, Lillard has remained loyal to Portland in large part due to the tremendous fan base.
But over the last few days, he's seen some of those same fans attacking him on social media for a pending coaching hire. He played no part in consummating, sources said.
That came from Damian Lillard. He essentially did a press release being like, hey guys, I've always had your back, and you guys are not being cool to me, so I'm out.
Would just be like a little understanding as he finds out for the first time that his coach has these allegations. I don't think his endorsement of Chauncey had anything to do with that in the first place.
But it feels like the end is coming. Yeah.
I think everyone is kind of... Damian Lillard has been the exception, not the rule, in that he has remained loyal and he deserves credit.
Yeah. But it does feel like this is going to probably end up being a trade.
I like Damian. The only reason that this makes me sad is because I don't know what's going to happen with C.J.
McCollum now. And it feels like him and Damien work really well together.
Yeah. So I just want to see my boy CJ end up happy somewhere.
Yeah, I agree. I also want to see Dame have a chance at winning something.
I would like to see him on the Nets, actually. Why not make that trade? Wow.
Dame for Kyrie. Oh, I forgot to point that out.
The Suns Clippers fourth quarter, I was thinking I kind of miss super teams because this wouldn't happen. Super teams don't score four points in seven minutes.
Right. There's Dwight Howard, by the way, sitting courtside of this game.
I love it. Looking cool.
I love it. Probably going to get into the game.
Where's he going to go? What teams would you like to see Dame on? The Knicks, obviously, people just keep saying the Knicks, the Knicks, the Knicks. I don't know.
I mean... Dame for Ben Simmons? Lakers fans are one and the same to Yankee fans when it ever comes to a free agent.
They're like, hey... Or not even a free agent, a trade.
Someone who could get traded. They're basically like, yeah, Rich Paul, go get him.
Clutch, clutch, sign him. And then he'll just come to the Lakers.
I actually don't think that he would play well with LeBron. I mean, they would just win a title.
But it wouldn't be fun for me to watch personally. No, it wouldn't be fun for anyone.
That's what I mean when I say that they wouldn't work well together. Agreed.
Agreed. It's a bummer, but I also kind of figured it would happen eventually.
He's not getting younger. He's like 31 or something.
Jake, who's back jacoby ellsbury is back what yeah dustman troya had a uh ceremony at fenway on friday night and michael tim tim wakefield and jacoby ellsbury was spotted for the first time in forever he pretty much went into hibernation after the yankees thing ended poorly and no one knows where he went but yeah is he i was i was is he under contract by the yankees still i just read he was wearing the red sox jersey and i saw that i was like if i was a yankees fan like i'd be low-key they had a five million dollar buyout this year so this year yeah oh my god they're still paying him but now he's back in like it's painful enough but to be come back wearing the red sox jersey like i loved it but yeah if i was a yankees fan that would be triggering beyond belief are you are you allowed to do that if you're still under contract? Well, I guess you got the buyout. That's why I was confused, because I saw it.
I was like, I would be, if I was even management, I'd be furious. That would be in my paperwork at the end where I'd be like, okay, listen, I'll give you a buyout, but I have one rule, and the only rule is you're not allowed to wear a Red Sox uniform for a calendar year.
Right. Ric Flair being there was pretty funny.
Yeah. He's like, why is Ric Flair here? And they're like, yeah, Dustin Pedroia is just a huge Ric Flair fan.
Like, say no more. That's awesome.
Dude, yeah, Ric Flair does that from time to time. He's like a real-life cameo.
Yeah. Like, he has a service where you just ask Ric Flair to show up at your event.
And he will do it. And he'll be like, where's the coke? It was cool.
Billy, do you want to do a who's back? Yeah, I got one. Okay.
Magic Johnson finally got the news that Ben Simmons is terrible at shooting. Oh.
And his piece of advice to Ben Simmons was that he needs to play more basketball. So, thank you, Magic Johnson.
I actually agree with that. I mean, he's got a right.
I do think Ben Simmons is, not to know first take but like i do think ben simmons is probably one of those guys who falls in the camp of he's really good at basketball but probably doesn't love basketball because you can't you can't love basketball and just never fix the fact that you can't shoot right if you like if you loved it you would probably shoot no he loves basketball he just doesn doesn't love the basket. He needs to spend a summer just loving the basket.
Right. I just think that if you had this glaring hole in your game year after year after year, at some point you would come back and be like, hey, guys, guess what I did? I shot 10,000 jumpers this summer.
I'm going to be in the gym. I still think it's a Philly thing, and people haven't really caught it.
Like, the Marco Fultz and Ben Simmons, like, something's up there. Yeah, it is really bizarre to have.
The mentions slow down. You want to just reignite them? It's like a trash fire.
Legitimately. A tire fire, yeah.
Legitimately. I think one of two things needs to happen in Philadelphia.
Coincidence? I think not. You know what they need to do? They need to secretly make the hoops bigger in the Philadelphia 76ers gym.
And just, like tell ben simmons okay here's the key to the gym go practice as much as you want this summer let him get his confidence up yeah but that's the problem i think he would be i don't think he would practice he might practice more if he's making a couple of shots every now and again give him 25 bigger rims yeah and just see what that does actually fuck it just go like twice as big and see that's the test is make them twice as big and see if he tells you hey there's something different about the rims right and it's like the jamarcus russell right yeah putting the hundred dollar bill in the back of the playbook yeah right and he basically just never never got to the end of the playbook or i think johnny manzel there was a story like that where his ipad they could like see that he just never played yeah any of the draft day. That's true.
Where Bo Callahan, I don't think he ever made it to the back. I think the Jamarcus Russell story was because it was still VHSs and he just didn't.
He returned in. He returned in.
None of them were at the end. Credit where it's due to Magic Johnson, just great vacation.
His vacation looks awesome. So he just goes on a huge ass boat in the middle of where? Mediterranean? It looked like the French Riviera to me.
So sick. He's just working out on a boat.
That is, that's the way to do it. Is that why he responds so late? He's just on a boat? No, he also responds late when he's not on a boat.
He texts his, our friend Rob Lowe asked him, and he got the answer to it. He texts someone who then tweets the text.
So there's a loss in translation. It's basically old-timey newspapers where they telegram the end of the game into the newspaper and hope they get it there before print.
What did Magic Johnson say when he quit? He's like, I'm not going to show up on Monday. I'm not going to be here.
I'm not going to be here. I'm not going to be here.
Magic Johnson is definitely not. Not going to be here.
I think he just got sick of having an office. If you're Magic Johnson, you probably, what, it was probably 20 years after he retired from basketball, he didn't have an office ever.
Well, he's made a shitload of money. He's a great businessman, but I feel like the office was the road, baby.
And as Donald Sterling said, put in that clip. Big Magic Johnson, what has he ever done? He's got AIDS.
Unbelievable clip. I still can't believe that happened.
What has he done? Can you tell me? Big Magic Johnson, what has he done? Well, he's a business person. He's got AIDS.
I really can't. Put that clip in there.
I cannot believe that happened. For real.
Like, it's just... Remember the...
We need to do, like, a whole episode about Donald Sterling and just the weird fallout. Remember the...
The deposition. The deposition.
Where he's like, she's kissing me, she's sucking on me, she uses her mouth, she makes me feel good. Sir, the question was, is this your handwriting this your handwriting yes yes and then remember his girlfriend who wore that big visor yeah all around town the visor's sick weird whole thing was weird i actually got one of those visors of course you did and then threw away before ever wearing it uh okay let's get to our interview we got colin morikawa on before we do that quick word from our friends at amazon studio well guess what we've got a new movie coming out fourth of july weekend the release of the tomorrow war starring chris pratt this is the movie event of the summer and you don't want to miss it this fourth of july weekend pratt leads an everyday hero uh who's transported into the future to battle a vicious alien life force and save his daughter, wife, and the world from total destruction.
Pratt is joined by an incredible and diverse cast with Ivan Strahovski. I think I nailed that.
Leading the future war, Sam Richardson and Edwin Hoge. This movie is impressively four-quadrant with broad appeal for all.
If you like sci-fi, action, emotion, or humor, there's something for you in this movie.

It's funny.

It has heart.

It's an epic in scale and action.

And, oh, yeah, aliens.

So make sure you check it out.

You can time travel sci-fi appeal.

There's everything there.

The humor.

It literally has everything.

So everything is there for the Tomorrow Wars.

And guess what?

It's coming out Friday, July 2nd on Prime Video streaming worldwide. So you don't even have to leave your house to do it, but you can also go see it in the theaters.
So check it out. It is the event of the 4th of July weekend.
I will be watching it guaranteed Friday, July 2nd on Prime Video. If you don't have Amazon Prime, I don't know what you're doing.
So make sure you get it. Amazon Prime, Prime Video.
Friday, July 2nd, the Tomorrow Wars. Chris Pratt, all he does is bangers.
Check it out. Okay, here he is, Colin Morikawa.
Okay, we now welcome on a very special guest. It is PGA Champion.
Wait, they already did the 2020 PGA champion, Colin Morikawa.

Very good to have you on.

Sorry, I forgot that they changed the order of the majors.

So I was going to say that you were still reigning champion, but you're not.

My bad.

Yeah, but you know what?

What I've learned, well, thanks for having me here.

Yeah, yeah.

What I've learned is that for Phil, after he says he doesn't care how he played after the week after,'s still the pga champion i'm still the pga champion that's true yeah you are gonna you're gonna live with it forever also i would say that uh the uh how young you won your pga championship and how great you've been at such a young age it's okay to be like hey i think i'll have another crack at these things and probably win all of them i hope so like let's's not burn any bridges, but I hope so. It's so cool.
I mean, it changes your life. It really does.
We're very fortunate. I'm very fortunate to have done one so early, like you said.
It makes that question of when you show up, when are you going to win your first? Yeah. You don't have to worry about it.
Right. I mean, we always give tips because every pro athlete wants tips from us.
But win your Super Bowl early in your career so that way people aren't like, oh, I can't win the big one. You got that out of the way.
Now it's not, hey, he can't win the big one. Yeah.
I love that. So, I mean, you're obviously very young to be a PGA champion, which is awesome.
I'm always curious about what the process is like when a golfer turns pro because it's different from any other sport out there. Even if you're deciding what college to go to, a lot of times players make a big deal out of selecting the hat, all that stuff.
When you decide to turn pro, is it just one day you're like, hey, I'm declaring myself to be a professional golfer? Or is it the day that you sign your first contract?

How does that work?

It's as simple as that.

I mean, I think you guys should just turn pro right now.

I'm pro.

There you go.

You're a professional.

I'm a professional golfer.

If you make money on the golf course,

so maybe I'll give you a dollar and we can go play.

Like you're technically, you could be a professional golfer.

There's nothing to it.

So you don't wake up feeling different.

You don't sign with any teams. Yeah, you know, you sign a couple contracts when you turn pro out of college.
But there's not much. I mean, you know, the dream of becoming a pro, you just have to realize, like, this is it.
But you don't wake up really feeling any different. Has there ever been a golfer who's, like, declared themselves to no longer be an amateur, but they're like, okay, I've turned pro.
and then they go out there and they just stink and everybody's like what's going on with this guy he said that he was pro um i think we see that all the time okay i mean did you guys hear what happened like on the on some monday qualifier two weeks ago these guys were got in a fist fight yeah yeah yeah yeah like i mean those guys are pros too but yeah maybe that's the pros like that you want to see. I don't know.
That's why. The definition of a professional golfer is very slim because there's so many tours.
There's so many people that can play and become a professional golfer. But you look at a professional golfer as guys on Korn Ferry, PGA Tour, European Tour.
Yeah. Those guys are the ones that are legit professionals.
You're making it sound way easier than it is. I like this.
Well, I mean, I'm telling you. We can start the process right now, and you guys can just say, I'm a professional golfer.
I'm handicapped. I'm working on getting my card right now.
Yeah, we're like 110. First key is you never talk about your handicap if you're a professional golfer because we don't care.
Oh, okay. We don't care.
Shit. Because it's probably scratch.
I don't know. Yeah, I've actually never kept score.
Because our handicaps matter. Like, I've never really cared about a handicap at all.
You need to play some more cash games. Well, because, like, but then, like, I'm not going to say, oh, my handicap's a plus seven.
Oh, shit. You kind of suck.
Is that what it is? No, a plus seven is really good. Exactly.
A plus seven is really good. I'd rather say I'm a scratch and give you more.
Yeah, right, right, right. Or I'm going to give you less shots.
Right. So, like, yeah.
And I think I read an article where somebody was interviewing you a while ago, and you said that you had never played Lynx golf before. Never.
And you got the British Open coming up. Or excuse i've got the open chip forgive me the open chip yeah i better get that right too uh but so you've never played links golf how are you planning on going out is it like a completely different style of golf entirely like how you're obviously they say you're a good ball striker i pretend to know what that means but i would assume that being a good ball striker would lend itself to being a good Lynx golfer.
Yeah, you know what? How am I going to prep with that? I've got the Scottish Open before, so I'm going to have a little bit of Lynx golf the week before. But hopefully, yeah, ball striking travels the world.
Hopefully you can bring it everywhere and be able to kind of play anywhere you want. But it's just visually it looks different.
The way you're going to, you probably won't chip as much much you're going to putt a lot around the greens it's just something you kind of you figure out when you get there and it's you're going to learn is your caddy like how long have you had your caddy and does he know everything about links golf will he be will you lean on him more when you go do that for sure I mean he's actually been to this course that we're playing at Royal St. George's for the open and so I've had him since I turned pro like I called him up a week right before I turned pro and luckily it worked out I would feel like like getting a good caddy would be really really tough to do because it's like most of the good caddies are already working as a caddy for somebody else so how did you identify like I think this guy's got what it takes? Yeah, and to be honest, like, how do you even interview for a caddie? Like, what do you ask him? Like, do you know how to walk off a yard? How good are you at cheating? Yeah, that's what I would say.
You should hit eight or nine here. Exactly.
So he worked for Ryan Moore for, I think, seven, eight years. Really good guy.
They kind of split up, and he had some off time and just seemed seemed like a good dude i mean he won two he was he went to chico state um he won two individual national championships when he was there so he's a good player within himself and um it just worked out you know you just you get to trust a guy he's a good just a good person in general and good to hang out with um he's all about san francisco sports and i'm all about L.A., so you have things to talk about. Do you think that the bubble title counts for the Lakers? Yes.
No. No? Time out, time out, time out.
Are you taking my PGA Championship away? Oh, good point. Yeah, probably, yes.
Were there fans? I mean, there are some volunteers, yeah. Okay, that counts.
Was there a bubble? Wait, there was LeBron James on your team. That's the real question.
We're still in a bubble right now. Let's cut to the chase.
However I can get it so that LeBron didn't win and Bryson didn't win, just tell me that. Okay, yeah.
Well, I think New York had really strict bubble rules. There it is.
There it is. You guys had some fans.
But, I mean, L.A. sports last year.
I mean, you have the Dodgers win. Great.
And none of it counted. Yeah.
You have the Lakers win. It's crazy.
Amazing. And then me being from L.A., I mean, kind of the triple crown.
Are you a big LeBron fan? Do you think that they should retire his number? I've grown up. I grew up watching the Lakers, and I was a huge Kobe and Shaq fan.
Kobe, like, I remember everything where it was when Kobe died. Like, it was literally, I was at Torrey Pines.
I was playing with Pat Perez, and it was, like, the weirdest feeling. Like, it was memories I'll have forever.
This LeBron thing has kind of grown on me a little bit. I think I heard about Magic Johnson talking about how in the world did Chris Paul get denied to get to go to the Lakers some odd years ago.
So LeBron has grown on me. Like a fungus.
Yeah. Like he's grown.
You know that you can't get rid of him. It's a rash that just keeps expanding.
If the Lakers had some bad years, how are we going to bring it back? He's a mercenary, though. Dude, you know what? We won the championship.
Asterix. No.
Anthony Davis, real Laker. Yeah.
That guy's a real fucking Laker. The whole Chris Paul thing doesn't get talked about enough.
David Stern had an interest, a business interest, in the Hornets at the time, the time in new orleans right yeah but when he was just like no we're not going to do that because then i'm i would personally lose money but what was the timeline because then he the pal gasol trade like that was basically he forced the lakers to get he forced the grizzlies yeah to trade pal gasol to the lakers it was like it was at the time of like super teams weren't a thing. Yeah.
And now it's, like, that's the only way. And, yes, there's a lot more players out there to create these teams, but, dude, I mean, Chris Paul, like, that's...
He's awesome. He's very, very sick.
Do you, like, as an L.A. sports fan, do you think it's fair when people say that, like, L.A.
sports fans or California sports fans don't care as much? I think there's so much going on in LA that sometimes it drifts away. I mean, I was talking to people.
You get the Hype House, the Sway House. Yeah.
The 405. Yeah, the freeway we could sit on and look at the back of someone's car for who knows what.
Yeah, I think it just bleeds into so much. I mean, growing up, it's not like there's no NFL team.
Yeah. And now we've got two.
Yeah. It's crazy.
You've got to be a Rams fan, right? Because of golf. Yeah, yeah.
Fuck. Yeah, I was a bandwagon.
I don't follow NFL. I'd rather follow college.
But, like, I've hopped on this. I live in Vegas now.
And, like, I've hopped on the Golden Knights bandwagon. Oh, okay.
That's nice. I kind of like that.
What about the Raiders?

That's a great stadium, isn't it? Yeah, I haven't been.

But it looks so good.

I know.

It's blacked out.

It looks amazing.

I love it.

When you drive past it, it's like a metallic black.

I've never seen that color before.

It's like the first thing when you head to the strip, too.

It just pops in your face.

So what's that like moving to Las Vegas?

Was there a time?

Was there an adjustment period?

First of all, when did you actually decide to move there?

Right when I turned pro.

I mean, I had a house to get out of California. No one wants to pay those lovely taxes.
I had a plan to get out there and I love it. Yeah, I love it.
I'm a city guy. Was there like a, like a breaking in period? Because you always hear people people in las vegas talk about like oh we don't go to the strip like that's the tourist area we go to the real las vegas was there like a time period when you first moved there where you kind of did tourist stuff for a while not really um it's crazy i mean as a little kid my grandparents used to live in vegas like we'd go there all the time so i'm a 10 year old walking through the strip like way too much than a 10 year old should um but no i mean there's a bunch of players that i know young guys that have sponsorships whatever will always go to the strip and have dinner it's like i live for food and that's what i care about so you've got some of the best food in vegas um but that first summer i was always gone like i was always traveling.
I was just rarely there. So I really haven't spent too much time.
When you travel, are you set up like, I think most pros, they will rent a house for a week, right? Do you do that whenever you go somewhere? I'm a hotel guy. Really? I love hotels.
Okay. I love showing up next day.
Everything's made for you. Okay.
Yeah. You get your little bubble.
I like turning the shower on all the way hot and then just like forgetting that I turned the shower on for 30 minutes and then, oh yeah, I was going to take a shower. Getting the AC really nice.
All right. So that actually, we need to update something.
So on your PGA Tour, on the pgatour.com website, under special interests, there's nothing. It's just a bullet point.
I'm just a dead person. Do you see this? No.
Do you see this? It's literally just a bullet point. Time out, time out.
So it should just be hotels. Hotels and food.
Eating food in my hotel. Who doesn't have any special interests? No, they never ask.
Well, let's get it fixed. PGA Tour's got to get this fixed.
Hotels should be the first person that has looked at that. Special interests at that.
Special interest. And be like, dude, you've got no special interest? Like, what's wrong with you? Well, I was like, when I saw it, I was like, are we sure we want to interview Con? Like, has he got no interest? What the hell? No, they never ask you.
Like, I remember when they asked you, they literally asked me about my height and weight, and I was like, man, what do I put? Like, I'm only 5'9". Maybe I stretch out to like 6'3", like 200.
I would never do that. I would never lie about my height being 5'9".
Yeah, exactly. 5'8".
Here's a fact. Wait, how tall are you? I'm 5'9".
Are you legit 5'9"? Yes, like shoes off and everything, I'm 5'8". Or 5'9".
Wow, you're getting in my head. Yeah, you guys are both 5'8".
It's fine. Here's a conversation between two 5'8".
My license says 5'9", too. I'm legit 5'9".
If I put on shoes, I can maybe stretch to 5'10". You know that it's a legit 5'9".
When you're like, my driver's license. I told them.
They measure you at the DMV. You're probably like 5'8 and three quarters.
When I go to the doctor's office, I'm a legit 5'9". I love this.
Can't take that away from me. You know, 5'9 is actually the perfectly average height of a human male.
It's exactly average. People say that it's short.
It's not. What's wrong with being average sometimes? Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
Is it the American average? Yeah. You sure? Oh, if you want to go like globally.
There's a problem though, because all my friends are like 6'2", and I'm like... I know.
It sucks. We've got an issue.
Where's all the 5'7 dudes out there? You, by the way, I love also that you have... I don't know if it's like hitting for the cycle, but it's pretty much...
It would be the equivalent of hitting for the cycle in terms of brands that you rep. You have a watch company, an insurance company,

a bank, and tax audit company.

Like, that is the golf hitting for the cycle.

So you want to do a quick plug of all your brands real quick? All right, all right.

I just did this, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

And I don't have as many as one of your favorite other human beings out there.

Who?

Bryson, I think, has millions.

Yeah, I'm sure he does.

Well, actually, let's just do that right now.

I don't know his. I don't know if there's too many.
No, no, but like Brooks or Bryson, whose side do you take? I'm not taking a side. There's a person that I love more than the other, but I'm not taking a side.
Say it. No, I'm not going to say it.
Brooks, Brooks, Brooks. It better be Brooks.
Okay, there we go. I love...
You love Brooks. It's fine.
We're literally best friends with Brooks. I think you can feed both of them.
I love certain things about each human being. I like the rivalry.
I do think that it's great for golf. I do love something about it.
I love how much Bryson gets in his own head when he thinks about Brooks. I do love that about him.
It's amazing how Brooks, I think he's just a step, he's two steps ahead. Yeah.

He's a cool dude.

He's just like a regular guy.

Yeah.

And Bryson's always like trying to think, what different science can I use to make myself more regular?

He also pays us.

It's never going to work.

Yeah.

He also pays us a million dollars a year to be his PR firm.

Who?

Brooks.

Brooks?

Yeah.

We do all that for him.

If you want to pay us two million, we can-

We'll do it.

We'll hop to you.

Why do I need to pay more?

I'm just saying.

I don't know. What if you got in a rivalry? That comes with this? Do you think you could fight a rivalry by yourself? Yeah, I mean, we could start stuff any day.
I mean... I can start throwing...
No, I'm not going to throw. You can start a search, but we can finish it over here.
And so, if you want to pay us $2 million, we'll bully Ricky Fowler off the tour. You just say the word.
No, Ricky's a good dude good dude come on we do like ricky he's actually been on the show before yeah he has all right wait so wait do the sponsor yeah do the sponsors i've got taylor made adidas i've got zurich i've got u.s bank this is really just i've got therabody so i've got my body i've got omegas my watches um i think that's it you need a consulting firm. I think that's it.
You need like a Booz Allen Hamilton. I'm unbreakable.
You can't. Here's one.
No one's coming for me. Zach, D-E-W-O-C-19 said, Colin Morikawa, you suck, bro.
How the fuck you miss a four-foot birdie putt and a three-jack for bogey? Thanks for fucking me over.

We could take care of that guy. We could take care of that guy for you.
Unfortunately, he's just going untapped right now. You really screwed that one guy over.
The only thing I thought about that shot was losing money for him, not anyone else. Simply him.
I'm just saying. You got to watch out.
It's a cutthroat league out there. Yeah, it really is.
Do you have any advice for fellow Berkeley guy, Aaron Rodgers, as he goes into that match play? Alright, so one of my favorite tweets that I saw recently was Brooks' tweet at Bryson. Sorry bro, Aaron Rodgers.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was just as simple and clean as I could get, really.
Aaron, dude, I don't know. Just have a time.
Yeah. Have a great time.
All I would pay attention to are the highlights of just great banter and just them saying stuff. So I really hope, and I don't think I've ever met Aaron.
I really hope it's genuine,, just good guys talking. Right.
Not like, you need to say this line. Right, right.
It's good when it feels authentic. Right.
Speaking of Cal, has Mike Silver tried to become your best friend? No. Oh.
You obviously haven't accomplished enough. He's a writer for what, Sports Illustrated? I don't know where Mike writes.
Yeah, he writes somewhere. He writes on an internet.
He's out there on the internet, NFL maybe, but everyone who goes to Cal, he just reps so goddamn hard. No way.
Yeah, you... God, I didn't do enough accounting.
That sucks for you, dude. Yeah.
He, like, will basically go to the ends of earth defending anyone. I hope you're my in, then.
Yeah, okay. He's awesome.
He's He's awesome. But you haven't done anything to screw up enough to necessitate Mike Silver going to bat for you.
Right. He likes to rehabilitate Cal people.
Right. So right now you're on top of the world.
Actually, I mean. So I do need to start a fight.
You couldn't use something. When you broke the trophy, that would have been nice for Mike Silver.
Yes. Did they not tell you? Were they like, hey, be careful.
This trophy has a top to it? Yeah, and he told me it's really heavy, and it is. I mean, it's like 35, 40 pounds.
Which is a lot for a 5'8 guy. But for 5'9.
Get that right. How tall are you? I like you, Colin.
How tall are you? I like you. Yeah, okay, okay.
I know a lot of taller people than 6'2". Oh, no.
Damn. Shit.
They play in the NBA? I'm so glad. No, no, no.
My caddy. My caddy's like 6'3".
Isn't it fucked up, though, how somebody just happens to be born 6'2", and then they look down on you because you just happen to be 5'9"? What's worse is that all my cousins on my mom's side, like the guys, they're all over 6' tall. That sucks.
When you see a family and everyone's tall and then one person, that's just not fair.

Screw it.

I'm going to live up to it.

I think you're doing okay for yourself.

My girlfriend gives me shit every day for being five or nine. Was she six one?

Oh, God.

That'd be a problem.

But whatever.

I'd say you're doing pretty goddamn good for yourself.

Yeah.

So what were we talking about?

Oh, the trophy.

30 to 40 pounds.

Okay.

So someone told me to bring it up, raise it up, put it above your head, and that's where all hell broke loose and it fell. What are you going to do? Embrace it, right? Yeah.
Embrace it. It's something that I'm known for now.

The one thing that bums me out about whenever you are doing well is they'll start throwing up all these, like, this is how young Colin Morikawa is. Yeah.
So did you know that you were the first, I'm sure you knew it, but you were the first guy to be paired with tiger who was born after tiger

went pro yeah i saw that that's i mean that's kind of a mind-blowing thing what i mean i would

assume that you loved tiger growing up yeah he's the guy was it intimidating to play with him it

wasn't really yeah but i see so we're on the same agency so i got to meet him a couple times and

just talk to him so like that's a little more relaxing and i mean i hit my first tee shot and

i used to use a oh you know what sorry i forgot one of my sponsors, Grant Thornton. Okay, nice.
I used a yards book. How could I forget him? Yeah, thank you.
Had to add that. Make sure to get that in there.
Yeah, we got that. But I used to use a Go Bears.
It said it, and he looked at me after I hit my first tee shot, and I striped it. He just looks at me, smirks, and laughs.
He's like, Go Bears. Yeah, right.
I'm like, wait, we just teed off in the first hole and Tiger's getting a little bit. Yeah, chirping you already.
That was one of the best rounds, and that happened that same week Kobe died. So that week is very memorable for me.
Yeah. So what is it like when you're playing with someone? I guess we never really got to the bottom of that.
Like, is it always I'm just competing against this guy, or do you compliment each other every now and then? Like, how? No, seriously. Like, if you're playing in a tournament, someone hits a great shot, you say, like, great shot? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You still say great shot. I thought you meant, like, complimenting them, like, oh, man, you look really good.
No. Well, you could do that, too.
No. Yeah, I would do that.
I would get them off their game. Be like, yo, you look hot today.
Bryce, be careful there's a fire ant over there. Your skin looks so nice today.
But what is that like? Are there certain people you play with, they don't say anything? There have been some guys where you're like, dude, what is going through your head? Because just being a normal guy, you say good shot. Right.
Some shots are just that impressive. Right.
But there have been a couple here and there, and they're in their own world, and you're like, what's going on? You just put off one of the best shots you've ever seen, but whatever. So it's just a norm in our sport to say great shot.
Okay, I'm going to give you one that you should start throwing out there. I like to do this every time I'm on the golf course.
No matter where they hit it, you say, you're going to love that.

You're going to love that.

You're going to love that.

Okay.

Yeah.

You're going to love that one. I'll try it.

I'll try it.

Just throw that out there every now and then.

You're going to love that one.

You're going to love that.

You've done a pretty good job of making sure that you don't get that weird golfer's tan

right across the forehead.

I appreciate that.

Well, I'm pretty dark in general.

But I can see your tan on the tops of your arms from being out in the sun a little bit. But you see, it always cracks me up.
Like, on the 18th green, some guy that I've been watching on TV for the last, like, three hours takes his hat off. Stuart Sink.
Yes, exactly. And the top of his forehead is, like, 20 shades lighter than the rest of his body.
Are you, like, really into sunscreen? No, my girlfriend is all about that health care stuff and i think everyone should like you got we spend so much time in the sun it's stupid like yeah we don't even realize it and um so i do watch now but you can only do so much yeah i'm not i'm not wearing long sleeves everywhere i like t-shirts and shorts why doesn't why doesn't the pga just relax and be like hey you guys can wear shorts and be in a cart yeah so i was thinking about this because i had a caller today about fashion i'm i'm all for pushing boundaries like i practice in what i'm wearing right now i practice in a t-shirt and shorts like i'm very thankful for the golf course at the summit um that i'm at one of the Discovery Properties I think you guys would love because you guys could show up in whatever you want. It's another sponsor.
Nice. That was an underrated sponsor.
It was an underrated. I'm back.
Discovery Properties. What about us makes you think we would love a golf course? Because we're not.
Look at us. It's everything.
Golf is like everything second to everything else they have. It's all about the others.
Got it. We like the other stuff? You think about the spring break guys with Jordan and Spieth and Ricky and all those.
They were at a discovery property. They were at Baker's, right? Okay.
So that makes sense. What you just said.
That's where I practice that. So not the golf.
So fashion-wise, I think it's respectable. I mean, pants are fine.
I don't think there's anyone out there like, man, dude, I really don't want to play golf because i have to wear pants that's me that's right that's literally the thing that i hate that but that's professional golf i think other places need to like relax a little more because literally a professional golfer in the world i practice in shorts and a t-shirt yeah i never put on a golf shirt other than when i have to go to another course or I'm at a tournament. We should invent golf shorts.
Like specifically shorts for golfers. Those are called shorts.
No, no. No, you're right, Colin.
He's smart. They're different.
They've got pockets that are specifically ball-sized. And then one that's for tees.
And one has hole in it so you can drop the ball when you miss. So you can cheat.
Yeah, you can cheat easily. Hey, look at that.
Yeah, right, exactly. That's pretty cool.
Just walking along. Golf shorts.
Can we talk real quick about that shot you had at the Memorial? Because that was very relatable. You just missed the ball.
Oh, yeah. I was trying to think which one.
What? Yeah. What's the ruling there? So if people don't know, Collins at the Memorial, he was in the lead or tied for the lead the ball was deep in the rough he swung just didn't hit anything how does that count as a shot i don't understand that because it's an attempt but you could just be like just kidding practice no it was a legit attempt like you know off your face like if you were you need to start doing practices that look so much like attempts they't figure it out.
Yeah, what's crazy is that I actually did that last year as well. Really? Yeah, I did the exact same thing on the same hole.
So I've got issues there. You guys need to go there before the tournament and kind of walk around and make it a little...
It's deep. Yeah, yeah.
Okay, all right. Yeah, we've got to go lay down.
But what do you do? That's got to really fuck you up. The club wanted to go in that water that was straight ahead.
Everything was bad thoughts. But, I mean, what are you going to do? So I thought about it on the next shot.
Let's make sure I don't do this again. You can't say, like, just a joke.
What, that I? Yeah, or just right as you miss you, be like, that was practice. Well, because they can't get in your brain, right? If you just say, that was a practice shot.
Yeah, but like, can you live with that? Yeah. Can you live with that? Yes, definitely.
You can live with that. With saying that was practice? Knowing that the ball's there, you slid straight underneath the ball.
So you were trying to take a practice swing? Because practice you normally take away from the golf swing. I like to get real up nice close to the ball when I do the practice.
You want to feel the exact type of grass that your club's going to be going through on the actual shot. So the closer you get to the ball on your practice shot, the better you'll know.
I'll go one further. Sometimes I hit the ball in my practice shots.
That's still practice. If it goes in the woods, that was practice.
How much did that swing cost you? Do you ever do the math on that? It cost me whatever. I lost in a playoff.
I still was in a playoff. Do you want us to give you a cookie or what? Probably like $800,000.
$800,000? Yeah, I could absolutely live with that. $800,000? How much is my integrity worth? It's a lot less than $800,000.
I mean, come on, man. That's very debatable.
Come on. No, my integrity.
Yours might be higher. Maybe that's what we do for you.
We're Brooks' PR team. Maybe we just follow you around and we just scream practice after every show, no matter what.
Yeah, we don't know how many times in my career. I'm sure, hopefully it won't be.
Hopefully it was the last. It probably won't be.
I think every professional golfer will do it at some point. That's fucking crazy.
Our careers are too long. I mean, I'm a pro.
I've done it before. Yeah, exactly.
Do you think about that, though, when you're going, because we're good friends with Max Homa, too, and he's very honest about Man, you guys have a bunch of Cal guys. We do.
Oh, yeah. Did he go to Cal? Yeah, he went to Cal.
How the hell did he get into Cal? Because of golf? We sneak our way in. Well, he's not smart enough.
We sneak our way in. No, I just like to make fun of Max.
He's someone that I've been able to reach out to if I need anything. I don't really reach out to many guys, but on a side of who do I love out there, Max Homa is a good guy.
You like playing with Max because you can beat him. Right.
And you'll be like, hey, Max, you want to go out and do another practice? Well, it's weird that Max will feed that. Max will be like, yeah, Colin's really good and I don't want to play.
I'm like, dude, you won twice on the PGA Tour. Max, you're very good.
He loves to set his – I wouldn't say set his bar low, but he loves to – No, we'll do that for him. The best thing about Max is that if you're friends with him, he will show up and root as a spectator on Saturday and Sunday for now.
Because he doesn't make the cut. He's a down-to-earth dude.
Well, Max makes cuts. Come on.
He's very... He likes that we bust his balls because he's a normal guy.
Yeah, it's part of the reason why we love him because he can show up and be just dominant or he can show up and play like he's never played around a golf game before. He's a very relatable, funny guy, and so we like to have fun with him.
You've got to get to know him. The first couple times I met him when I was in school, he just seemed like a dude with really quiet and shy.
Wait, did you go to school with him? Did you play on the same team? No was out before I was there. So wait, back to the question though.
Do you say to yourself this putt could be worth $100,000? No. Not at all.
I only care about winning. You only care about winning.
But you just kind of bragged about being in a playoff and finishing second. Well, because you asked me how much that shot cost you.
able to come back after that and, like, find a way. Like, it didn't just make me miss that shot and then boom.
Like, I'm dead. But, you know, in retrospect, you can look back and see, like, exactly.
I mean, maybe if you had made that shot, you wouldn't have had to move out of California for taxes. No, I'm just going to move out of California.
But, like, we could talk about any other shot during the golf tournament that could have cost me, too. Like, I mean, I hit a shot and it hit the pin and it didn't go in on the par three.
Right. That's like, well, dude, the pin screwed me.
Maybe I should be yelling at, maybe you guys should be making a fuss about these pins. I mean, we could talk about any other shot.
Well, if you only care about winning, why don't you donate all the times that you don't win to charity? I'll match. Yeah, I will as well.
I'll double it. That's a great question because I still do like my money.
Oh, okay. We still do like our money.
I would never take loser's money. Would you be a fee? If I hit his third, I'd be like, no thanks.
I didn't win. No, because here's the thing.
Here's the crazy thing. We signed up for a sport where we're going to lose way more than we're going to win.
It's just given like that. That's why I don't play golf.

You just can't handle that.

No. Trust me.
I know.

Yeah, exactly.

Whether it's against your friends or whatever, your professional

golf, it's

something we have to live with.

When we do win, it feels amazing.

You want

more of that.

Golfers, it's funny because

golfers do, obviously, there's the four major

sports, and then golf is

Thank you. You want more of that.
Golfers, it's funny because golfers do, obviously there's the four major sports. And then golf is very popular.
But people wouldn't say that you're up there with NFL athletes. But in terms of mental toughness, you guys are.
You guys might be the number one sport. You see every other athlete out there try and play golf.
And they want to quit. They want no part part of it it's because we want to perfect this game that's unperfectible like it's just impossible to do it have you played with steph curry or tony romo no okay never uh tony played in some amateur events when i was uh still in college um but no dude i want to have i was on a podcast with jj reddick i want to have like a three-point contest and a round of golf with these dudes because I think I can compete.
Did you not want to mention Tommy Alter as well? What? No, Tommy's a boy. He was also on that podcast.
Tommy's a man. Tommy is a man.
I don't think Tommy's going to shoot threes with me. No, but I'm saying you said on a podcast with J.J.
Reddick because Tommy not. Okay, okay.
I was on the podcast with Tommy too. Tommy and J.J.
Are you invited to his dinner? Do you get invited to Tommy's dinners? No. Have you gone to Tommy's dinners? Wow.
We do. He gets all his famous people, and then they dinner.
Wait, wait, time out. Are you guys famous? No.
No. Who's not invited to one or two? What's going on? Are we flexing on whose dinners we're going to? No, and then we all take a picture, and then you feel like, oh, shit.
These people are way more important than me. He actually had to stop having as many because he kept inviting us and then his really famous people be like why are they here anna kendrick would be like hey i'm anna and then tommy be like this is my friend he's a blogger yeah and then she'd leave doesn't work that way it's kind of awkward yeah that's hilarious because like yeah we fit in yeah totally i don't fit in anywhere thing is like you just have to act like you know where you're going.
Wherever you are, you just have to act like this is where I belong. When it comes to your swing, which you have to practice over and over again, it's one of the aspects of being extremely mental tough is to just being able to go out there, shut everything off, just have the muscle memory to do it, replicate it the exact same way.
Has this thought ever occurred to you where you're like, what if I go out and I just forget how to swing? That's like riding a bike. Do you remember how to ride a bike or swimming? Yeah.
Like I think if I ended up taking, just say, God forbid something happened and I took a year off, I'd still remember how to swing. Would it be as solid and perfect as what I wanted? Probably not.
But you're never going to forget. So along those same lines, my actually last question.
So I feel like all golfers, at some point in their career, I mean, you've seen it with Tiger. He had to reinvent his swing a few times over.
Do you have that in the back of your head that, like, at some point I'm going to have to figure out a way to change things up? Or are there there golfers that are just like this is my swing it's been my swing my entire life that's all i mean look at a guy like uh freddie couples like his swing has been the same forever yeah and some guys the swings can last that long and hopefully you know i've built my swing where hopefully i think it it will last wait so explain that like there's there could be an expiration date on your swing. How would that work? Would there be a day that you just, let's say five years from now, you start doing it and it's just not working the same way? Well, yeah.
I mean, we could wake up tomorrow and my swing will feel awful and I'll have to figure out why does it feel like this. Interesting.
But, I mean, your favorite guy, Bryson, do you think he's going to swing like that at 60 years old, 55? No. He's going to try.
But I don't know. Yeah, he is.
There's no way any 55-year-old guy can start swinging like that if we've played our entire life of golf. What's the first to go with a swing like that? Maybe the back? Yeah, back.
I mean, we've seen Tiger with his knees. I mean, our bodies, they're moving quite a bit.
Even though we're not physically getting hit, our joints are being rotated a lot. Do you wear red on Sundays still? Do I wear red on Sundays? No, I never wear red.
I always wear red. Every Sunday.
Every Sunday. Until Tiger's back.
God, I wish today was Sunday. I would have given you guys a lot of shit.
Guess what? If we were, we'd be wearing red. Is it only on every Sunday until Tiger comes back, I'm wearing red.
Are you? I'm going to catch you. That's a fact.
No, okay. I've been doing it since he got hurt.
Months. Yeah, months and months.
All right. All right.
I'll be watching. No, I don't wear red on Sundays.
Do you know Marshawn Lynch? No. You should get to him.
Mike Silver will hook you up with him. Got all these connections that I'm missing out on.
My last question is just like a Mount Rushmore of holes. What are your favorites? Yeah, like iconic 17th at Sawgrass.
No, no. Ooh.
Is that a gimmick hole? Yeah. Mickey Mouse hole? It's beautiful, but, like, I would not put that up there.
God, that is so tough. And I haven't played enough golf, to be honest.
12 at Augusta is just pristine. What's that one called? What's the name of it? I don't know.
It's got to have a name, right? Is it? It's like Purple Dogwood. Is it Azalea? Maybe.
No, Azalea is probably a different one. Pauline? Yeah.
I think 10 at Riviera is amazing. Okay.
Agreed. Is that your home track? No.
I never played there until college. Do you call golf courses tracks? No.
I do just to sound like, yeah. I do just to sound like race.
I sound like I know way more about golf than you do. Because you obviously do.
I do. What about the one not worth all the fans at the Waste Management Open? At Waste on 16.
That's sick, right? It's sick, but is it like a Mount Rushmore of holes? I don't know. No, I mean, it's hard because what are we defining as a great hole? Is it like views? So I'm going to leave it at those two, and you guys, we can just keep it up to the imagination.
You said the 12th, I guess, right? That's Golden Bell. Golden Bell.
Golden Bell. That's the one where Jordan Spieth had a tough time there.
Yeah, a lot of people have had a tough time. Yeah.
Not me. Not an easy hole.
I've never bogeyed it. Really? Have you played it? Nope.
There you go. Probably never will.
No, I would say guaranteed never will. You better wear some pants there.
Guaranteed never will play a colored shirt i can put a hundred percent guarantee on that one never playing at augustine you're gonna get invited one day to play yeah you're like i got my red and black on a sunday what's the course record the other way 250 there you go what's the course record for four days make Make me play at once. All right.
Well, Colin, thank you, man. This has been a lot of fun.
Appreciate you stopping by. Appreciate you.
And we're rooting for you now. Oh, good luck in the Olympics.
Yeah. Thank you.
Yes. Team USA.
But I wouldn't. I'm rooting for America, but I wouldn't be.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Do we love America or hate Bryson? I hate Bryson.
Oh, man. Yeah, no.
If you guys lose and it's Bryson's fault, it's way better than us winning. Here's what I'll give you.
There's no team award for Team USA or the golf. It's all individual.
I'm representing Team USA. I'm ready for you.
I'm ready for you to be number one. There we go.
And I want Bryson to embarrass our country. All right, sweet.
Thanks, I love. I'll do my part.
Thank you. Thank you, Colin.
Thank you for sharing this, Colin. Thanks, guys.

You can unload the stress, get it out, talk to someone who's completely unbiased about your life, someone who isn't going to judge you or take sides on anything.
When there are things that you can't tell anyone or you feel like you can't unload to family and friends until you get a Facebook portal, then you can tell them everything. You need to unload it and that's what therapy can be.

That's B-E-T-T-t-e-r-h-e-l-p.com slash pmt betterhelp.com slash pmt okay let's uh wrap up we got a few segments we're going to do real quick we're going to talk some college baseball uh nc state got screwed wolf packer my national championships champions they actually did a parade and uh they had everyone come to the stadium, and they said, we're the national champs. If UCF can do it, why can't NC State? Yeah, just hang a banner.
If I ran a college, it doesn't matter what I'm competing in. I find all the different championships that either didn't happen for one reason or another, and I find an excuse to claim all of them.
So shout out NC State. I mean, it is a very NC State thing to happen,

knowing just how cursed they are.

They actually give the state of Minnesota a run for their money

in terms of how cursed the Wolf Pack has been in the last 40 years.

Yes.

Oh, Breaking Moose.

You got Breaking Moose?

Go ahead, Hank. Following up from our conversation before the interview, Clippers assistant Chauncey Billups has just reached a five-year agreement to become the new coach of the Portland Trailblazers per Woj.
Oh, wow. By the way, we really missed a huge moment in PMT history.
It happened on Friday, but Nebraska athletic director Bill Moose retired. And we got tagged a lot in that.
It would have been incredible. That was huge.
If that had happened during a show. Literally, Bill, M-O-O-S.
All right, back to college baseball. So Mississippi State, that was an incredible game.
Walk off to get to the national title. I do think that Vandy's probably going to win because they have the rest.
Like, that part of it sucks. It sucks for NC State that they got kicked out, but it also kind of sucks for Mississippi State because Vandy didn't have to use lighter on Saturday.
So now they're all rested, ready to roll for the national title. There's always an element of that in college baseball.
I don't know what your little league situation was like, but in my league it was like if you have one of two guys, you're going to be in the area championship every single year because they're that much better. In college baseball, it's like if you have the pitcher, if you have that pitcher, then you're going to do pretty well.
I think it starts, what is it, Tuesday, Wednesday? I'm not sure exactly when it starts. I am going to be watching.
It has been awesome, though. It's really going to be a battle of the unstoppable force versus the annoying object of the Cowbells against the Whistling guy.
Yeah, and Vandy versus Mississippi State. Hey, would you believe those two teams are in the same conference? Do they speak the same language? Not really.
They couldn't be we're gonna say tuesday wednesday monday tuesday wednesday is the three game series so we're starting it right up monday ready to roll i'm excited who are you rooting for i'm rooting for mississippi state because i know they're not going to win so i can say i was rooting for mississippi state i feel like they should schedule uh you know it shouldn't count as a championship but they should schedule whoever wins their first series against NC State. NC State? Yeah.
There's got to be something. I know they can say whatever they want.
They can give them whatever accolades they want, but there's got to be some type of closure, some type of closure for the players. It really is like heartbreaking.
And they beat Leiter in that 1-0 game. So it's not a situation where you're like, oh, Vandy would have won anyway.
No, no, no.

NC State, they were 1-1 against Vandy in these college World Series playoffs.

And we needed it.

We needed it.

So what's to stop Riggs from scheduling a one-game NC State against Vandy in golf?

Yes.

I like that.

A golf tournament.

A women's golf tournament. Women's golf tournament between NC State and Vandy for the College World Series.
Let them play, Riggs. For the title.
Come on. Do it.
Also, shout out to College World Series Twitter account, NCAA, for dropping the news at 2 a.m. on Saturday morning and then also tweeting about a record crowd at Omaha on Saturday night after telling one team they had to go home because of COVID protocols.
Because of COVID protocols, yeah. That was a chef's kiss.
Bad visual. Beautiful.
You know what? Read the room. Yeah.
Yeah, read the room. We had, what else do we have? Oh, should we talk a little F1? I mean, Red Bull's on fire.
That's pretty much it. Ever since Christian Horner came on part of my take.
It's like they can't be stopped. Ain't no stopping Max Verstappen.
Someone had a better one. Someone had a better one.
Ain't no topping Max Verstappen. Fuck, it was...
I think I retweeted it. Someone had a great saying that we need to start using for Verstappen.
We're not Red Bull guys, but we'll take credit for it. I'm kind of becoming a Red Bull guy.
You can't because they're good. That's the thing, Big Head, is I don't root for any good teams.
None of the teams that I like are any good at anything. Also, if you haven't won a championship in 10 years, how good can you be? Yeah, exactly.
We're perennially... As long as you're not...
It's fine. That's why I did Ferrari because they're not good.
They're not good. But all time.
Right. That's why I did it so I can be like, hey.
The history. Yeah.
Fucking 27 rings, bro. Every driver thinks of being that red car.
Everyone. Everyone does.
So, yeah, you are like becoming a Yankees fan. Be Ferrari with me.
It's fun, because the Ferrari. But I like winners.
I heard on the street that Ferrari's going to be awesome. I like winners.
I want guys that know how to win. People keep saying that.
Oh, because of the new regulations or some shit. So, we'll get in now, and then we look like geniuses we look like geniuses.
Just saying. That might just be big Ferrari though.
That could be big Ferrari. You're hearing the rumors from illegitimate sources.
I'll tell you what. It's such a classic car thing.
We're actually just punting on this year. We're just gearing our car up for next year.
Yeah, you're buying it hook, line, and sinker. This guy, Mr.
Irish Goodbye, how did he get this Twitter handle? What a great Twitter handle. He said, I call him Max Averse to Stoppin'.
People go nuts. I think that's right.
Yeah, that's pretty good. Maximum no stopping.
Yeah, I mean, that's pretty good. Yeah.
So, yeah, F1. I don't know, they're on the same track next week Which is kind of weird, but I actually like it What do you mean, as what? They're not traveling Oh, they're doing a double dip They said at the end, they're like Yeah, usually they'd be packing up here, but they're not So, go do it again That probably means good things for Red Bull, right? No pressure, Max.
No pressure, but a lot of pressure. My F1 fandom is officially up for sale.
Come to Ferrari. I'm leaning Ferrari.
I'm a Danny guy. I'm Danny 3.
I think I got to root for a driver, not for a team. Yes, so I have Ferrari as a team and Danny as my driver.
Daniel. Okay.
As my driver. I like Daniel, but I also, I think I like Max.
If they're P1 and P2, who are you rooting to take the checkered flag? No, I take that back. I don't like Max.
I like Nicholas Latifi, the billionaire's son. That's Lance Stroll you mean.
Yes. Uh-huh.
Lance Stroll. Lance Stroll.
The other one. Yes.
Drives for Williams. Yes.
Lance I love No, Aston Martin now Alfa Romero Racing point No, no, they changed No, no It is Aston Martin But he's still the billionaire's son That only has the job because of his dad Yes, yes, yes He's actually not a bad driver But yes, he is There was a moment in the Drives to Survive Where he was like, yeah, yeah, it's a lot of hard work to get here.

It's like, what?

No.

It's kind of bullshit, actually, that because your dad's rich, it doesn't make you faster.

It should make you faster.

It should make you superhuman.

Yes.

I'm buying low on whatever the fuck.

What's his name?

Okay, I like that for you.

Lance Stroll.

Okay, Lance Stroll.

And then just going after everyone who's like, he just got a job because his dad's like, no, he's actually a really good driver. Yeah, he's a great driver.
He earned, not given, Lance Stroll. Yes, okay.
I like that. All right, you had to stay woke, Hank? Well, yeah, I mean, this was, yeah, I had to stay woke.
France, Tour de France started on Saturday. It's technically the Tour de France.
Tour de France. You got to say it that way.
The Tour de France. And I don't know.
I don't know how far into the race it was. Maybe 100 yards.
There was a lady with a sign who a driver ran into the sign. I did look, review the footage because they're saying they're going to sue this lady.
Like Tour de France is trying to sue this lady. She wasn't really standing in the street.
Her sign was over the line. But she wasn't there like she was standing in the street not looking at the cameras.
Her feet were technically not in the street. They were close, but the sign was definitely over the edge.
A racer, biker, runs in the sign, falls over, turns into like a, I don't even know, 150-person pileup. Absolute disaster.
This person looks like they're dead in the still picture that I'm looking at here. Absolute disaster.
My stay woke, though. My stay woke was that this is on day one, race one.
I don't mean to laugh, but that's funny. That guy looks like he's dead.
Dude, you fell off your bike going like 10 miles an hour. Everyone has done that.
Yeah, but they're locked in. That's where it's like they get fucked.
Yeah, but we've all fallen off our bikes. It sucks.
You scrape your knee. You scrape your knee.
I saw a kid fucking break his arm last week, Hank. My stay woke was that this was on day one, whatever, series one of the Tour de France.
Now everyone's talking about the Tour de France. Stage.
Did they do this on purpose? I actually kind of believe it. Let's make a big spectacle in the very beginning because it's fucking 100 days.
You can make up the time. Yeah- I think they paused it, too.
Yeah. I'm actually in on this with you.
If it was like, you know, whatever, stage 12 or some shit, that'd be a different story. But if it's like, this was the very beginning of the entire thing.
Yeah. There needs to- Which one of these bicyclists is the billionaire's son that gets to drive the- Is there somebody- Can you earn- Can you just get placed onto a team in- I'm sure there is.
Whatever the fuck this is? I'm sure there is. The sign actually says, you know what the sign said? Something like grandma and grandpa or something? Yeah, it was a mixture of French and German on the sign, which seems very lazy to me by the people that were staging this.
Well, no, you don't know who to blame. You don't know who to blame.
It's a nationless crime. That's what I'm saying.
So it's like it seems almost too perfect. Yeah.
Ale opie o mi, which means come on, grandpa, grandma. Hmm.
Interesting. Hmm.
And yeah, I don't think anybody got seriously injured, right? Although this guy does have blood coming out of his mouth. I mean, they're bikers.
They're bicyclists. We're banging chains, guys.
Yeah. Okay.
I had one last thing before we get to Billy. I had a question for you guys.
So I went out to dinner on Saturday night before the water dogs game and watch them just fucking suck. And they're the worst team ever.
I was walking out of dinner and a guy came up to me and he's like, hey, big cat, big fan. And i work in finance here is a stock that's gonna pop off because you've given me so many winners i wanted to give you this and i thought to myself i've i've never given a winner out like i don't give winners out so is he trolling you yeah should i take the stock or no no i don't that you should.
Because, Big Cat, there's absolutely... One of two things is going on.
He looked like a finance guy. Yeah, yeah.
One of two things is going on. Was he wearing a vest? No, but he had slick back hair.
He looked like a finance guy. A whiter blue collared shirt? It was blue like checkers, yeah.
Like stripes. Blue stripes.
Either he knew that you have never given him a winner, and he's giving you a fake tip. Correct.
That could be one possibility. The other is that he really doesn't know what he's doing in the world of finance, which is why he's sharing a real successful stock tip with a stranger out in the open.
So I think either way, you have to take it. I was thinking also there could be a third scenario is that he's

just been fading me. So I have

been giving him winners.

So should I fade him and short the

stock? Maybe.

Little tit for tit. Maybe

he took the David Montgomery over

in that game when he had the run.

Maybe that's true. And this is the tip.

That was the winner. This is the stock.
He's only been betting NBA Christmas Day unders. That's it? Uh-huh.
Fuck. Can you tell us...
I'll tell you after. I'm not going to tell it out loud.
What type of a stock is it? I couldn't figure... I looked it up, and it's all kinds of weird shit.
I don't know. Okay.
Sounds promising. I've read a couple articles, and they're buying some shit, and who knows? This is a lucrative opportunity.
I am the dumbest person when it comes to finance. I don't understand how any of this shit works.
It was Google. It's stock with Google.
It turns out I'm pretty dumb when it comes to cryptocurrencies and owning stocks and securities. Because as I've been saying, that I'm holding on to my doge until a year comes up, which was early July, so I could sell it and not get the capital gains tax that you get if you sell it before a year.
Turns out I've just been extremely wrong about that, and capital gains is not charged at all the same when it comes to cryptos. I would imagine.
So it's like I've lost myself about $40,000 in the last two months waiting for July to come up. Now you just wait even longer.
Yeah, exactly. Now I hold.
Well, they say waiting is

the hardest part, right? Tom Petty. Let nobody

say that I don't have diamond hands.

Yeah, you have accidental diamond hands.

Fucking diamond hands. Alright, Billy,

wrap us up.

So, the changes

the NBA made to the

backboards after Shaq was breaking them is

they instituted breakaway rims

and they steel enforced basically the whole backboard. The stanchion, right? Yeah.
So you can break the rim, though. But it comes off easier.
Yeah, that's great. And there's also a technical foul for breaking the rim nowadays.
That's bullshit. Well, Boogie, yeah, you get two rims, two technical fouls.
What do they announce? A technical foul? He was too awesome? The Waterdogs in their game, these are a couple points where they need to improve. Shooting.
Shooting, they shot 27 times where the Archers shot 44 times. Thank you.
Actually, no, 29 times versus 42 shots. So they got outshot.
This is what I'm saying, Billy. Am I like, I'm not, I don't know lacrosse.
I obviously don't know anything about it. But just, I think that like coming into it without knowing anything, just watching it and being like, why aren't we more aggressive shooting? And they got out hoovered on ground balls 27 to 44.
Is that an actual like. Ground balls.
No, out hoovered. Is that a vacuum? Is that like war? I know, but is that something you came up with? Or does everyone say that? Guys who get a lot of ground balls are called hoovers.
That might just be my terminology. I wanted to know because I love that.
I think that's a great analytics. The Hoover analytics.
I think I just came up with a strategy for how the water dogs. It's kind of opposite what you're saying, though, Big Cat.
If we get out to like a two. If you say shoot less, I'm going to kill you.
A two-nothing lead? I'm going to kill you like I'm going to kill the dogs. And then I feel like lacrosse would be the easiest sport in the world to play keep.
Oh, okay. Yeah.
All right. You were on to something, though.
You were on to something. Yeah, but without a shot clock, you were absolutely right.
About like three years ago, that's what they used to do. I would have been the greatest coach in the history of lacrosse three years ago.
Before the shot clock. You were almost there because it actually would absolutely work.
It sucks that this is the sport of the future. If this was the sport of the present, I would be three years ahead of everybody.
They need better slide packages and stop letting their goalie just get totally shot up. Slide packages like defense.
Got it. I'm not worried about defense.
I don't give a fuck about defense. Just score.
If the Waterdogs lose... It's like Al Davis.
Right. If the Waterdogs lose 23-22, I won't be mad.
I really won't. It's when we lose and we score 8 fucking points.
How do you score 8 points in a lacrosse game? I can score eight points in a lacrosse game. Al Davis lacrosse.
Just throw it towards the hoop. The sign that said, Go Grandpa, Go Grandma, with a mixture of French and German would probably point to Switzerland.
The Swiss both use French and German dialects. Yeah, there it is.
I don't trust the Swiss. Yeah, the Swiss are always being neutral on shit.
They're in it for themselves. Exactly.
So who knows if they had any sort of sway. Well, that's a great country if you're like, we're going to plant this sign.
Yeah. What country is no one going to get mad at? Switzerland.
The neutral one. And it's the golden jacket, right? We know that Swiss, they like to take care of the Germans' gold.

A new cool lacrosse name for Jake.

You know, Marsh.

Marshland.

Marshes are like, you know, but you know what's even chiller than a march?

A bog.

A swamp.

Swamp.

So he's the swampland?

Swamp thing?

Yeah, swamp thing. Jake Swamp.

Cake Swamp.

Cake Swamp. Cake Swamp.
That's good. Cake Swamp sounds like a fucked up porn site.
I like it, though. Cake Swamp.
Cake Swamp. Damplips.com.
Shout out, James Brown. No animal fact today, but just Google a shoebill stork and you'll get quite the surprise.
And let us know what happens. Exactly.
I'm going to do it right now. Damp marsh.
Shoebill stork. I'm going to Google cake swamp.
What are these things? Legit dinosaurs. Holy fuck.
Not actually legit dinosaurs. Oh, there's such a thing called Louisiana swamp cake.
It looks delicious. Did they put a little baby in it? No, it's just an ass.
People really don't talk about that enough. It's the shape of an ass.
Just put little babies in cakes. Just bake it.
They stopped doing that. Oh, they did? Yeah.
Why? They ran out of babies? Choking hazard. I also think they should standardize a sticky substance for MLB players.
Like they use the mud on the balls.

So like maybe not spider tack, but like pine tar is legal.

There was a knuckleballer that got checked for a substance that increased spin rate.

He's like, yeah, sure.

Go ahead, please.

I throw a knuckleball.

Check all my shit.

All right.
