Speaker 1 (00:00):
I hit it. Let's go.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Man, Happy Monday. What a great day to be alive.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
You know what I'm saying post Masters Monday.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
A lot of people are hungover today, a lot of
people are tired.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Justin was drinking watching it?

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Was he? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:15):
He posted he was at some bar in Germantown.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
It looked like, oh, you guys weren't watching it together.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
No. I didn't hang out with him this weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Man, Oh you guys, okay.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah, just it was a weekend at home, nothing crazy,
watching little Masters, went to brunch. Uh, didn't have anybody over,
did some stuff on the house, just had the Masters
playing the whole weekend though, Coach, So let's start the
show there.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
I agree, let's start it and then we'll talk about
it because I'm gonna tell you Master Sunday very nice.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
We're gonna do it live. Arnold is off today. He
will be in on a Wednesday with a full report
from Augusta from San Antonio. He was also in New
Orleans for the Super Bowl. He's got so much to
tell us about so little time.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Oh man, I can't wait to back. It's been so
lonely here. He has been on the road again on
the road again. Arnold is finally coming home.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
He told me he was almost killed off. He was shot,
he died. But Arnold's been killed off.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
He has Oh, so stupid.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
I was trying to kill him off, so dull shot
to get rid of his.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
That's so stupid, that's just so dumb, Like why would
you be so dumb, Like we just have a beautiful
Master's weekend and you come in with the dumbest.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Joke of all time.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Oh he got shot, No he didn't. Arnold is fine,
Like he's just driving back from Augusta.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Because I don't feel like reenacting the three last major
sporting events that he was at and thinking of creative
things that he did.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Then well, you're gonna have to work on it. Because
he's gonna be back Wednesday.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Why not just kill him off and then I don't
have to do any creative thinking.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
No, So by Wednesday, I expect you to have something
written out from Arnold that you can read.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Because he has been traveling.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
He can tell us all about his trip, his voyage,
like what he saw, who he met, you know, whatever,
what he thought of the games.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Anything. Now I understand why people commit crimes. Sometimes it's
just easier to kill somebody off. In that moment, I thought,
I don't feel like reporting from those three places. Why
not just kill him? I thought, or the three New Orleans,
San Antonio, and Augusta. He's been at all three major
sporting events in the last two months.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Got a question super Bowl, super Bowl, I'm an idiot,
that's what was in New Orleans. I was like the
Sugar Bowl, Like what, Okay, thank god.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
I didn't do that one. I'd have four events too much.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Or if he was at the you know, the Padres
baseball game this weekend.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
UFC in Miami.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Padres is in my kids baseball team was.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Random sports team Reference. They did have a home game
against the Rockies, but I didn't know anything happened of No.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Oh, no, we played the Giants this weekend.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
No, they played the Rockies. Nah, I was there. When
you guys team names are the same names as actual
sports teams. That confuses the hell out of me.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
I know. That's why it's great.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
When you were the Nets, I hated it, and now
I hated it even more to your the Padres because
I followed the West Division in the NL and.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
The Padres are really good.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
They're the best team in baseball.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
They are really good.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
We're gonna do it live. We oh the one, two,
three sore losers?

Speaker 2 (03:34):
What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
about sports, so I give you the sports facts, my
sports opinions, because I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's says and I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.
I live on the North side of Nashville with Bazer.
We have two point two acres two point two kids
at Vanderbilt Clinic. Justin checks on them every single day
when he goes into his job at electrophysiology. Over to you,
Why are you talking so fast? I don't know, but
I lost the perfect game.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah that's okay. So let me tell you. We talked
about what we were gonna do for Master's weekend, how
much we were gonna watch, how if it was on Sunday,
we were gonna sit down in front of the TV
and watch every single shot, because that's all you want.
Coming in an Augusta on Sunday is three or four
or five people right there fighting for the green jacket.

(04:20):
So Sunday morning, I got up and I started doing
everything around the house. I started cleaning, this, cleaning that,
putting some toys away, dying kids, clean out the car,
help me pick up all your crap, put your uniforms here,
anything and everything. I could do, play with the kids,
play catch, play soccer, do everything. So at one thirty

(04:42):
Central time, I could be in front of the TV
when Rory and Bryson d Chambeau teed off on number
one from Augusta. And not only was I not in
front of the TV, but it was lunchtime. We didn't
have anything to eat. Wife had not gone to the
grocery store. So she's like, Ah, I guess I'll go
pick up some Jersey Mics.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Did you not ask the personal assistant to order us
groceries that are delivered?

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Don't have that. So she goes to Jersey Mics and
gets the food and I'm like, all right, now I'm
gonna sit down and the Master's about to come on.
She goes in today the big.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Day we all live in Nashville. You order from a
place that's an East Coast place.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah, and she's like, I'm gonna get a pie. And
I was like, the big day she goes in this
the Masters, you know, I was like, yeah, she goes Okay,
you're gonna watch Someone's like yeah, that's the plan. And
then the kids are like, dad, Dad, it's a nice day.
Can we eat out on the front porch?

Speaker 1 (05:33):
It was nice. I'm with them on that one.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah. We'd been playing outside all day because it was
so nice in the morning. We were out there, we
were just doing it, and so I was like, all right,
let's eat on the front porch. And we're eating in there,
playing around and running around, eating.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
And hand me some vinegar and some oil, thank you,
salt and pepper as well.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
And then my wife says, oh, Peter's mom just texted
and said, hey, they're playing in the yard if we
want to go over there, And all three of our
kids are like, oh, let's go.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Could we Oh? Could we go?

Speaker 2 (06:00):
And I'm like, yeah, they're right, we'll walk by ourselves.
We'll walk by ourselves. You come in a minute. I
don't know about that.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Crime rates are up.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
It's about two and a half blocks busy road, no
big deal. I'm like, yeah, yeah, you guys can go ahead,
and uh, your mom and I will walk over there.
We'll give you a five minute head start. And so
I pick up the launch and went in the house.
I'm like, man, they've already teed off. I'm not in
from the TV. S all right, I'm just gonna go
to Peter's house and let's just hope. Let's hope they

(06:29):
have it on the TV, even though the kids are
gonna be outside.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
You should know the guy you're going to see, and
you know what he likes, the Dodds. I always know
they're streaming sports, the Justins. I always know he's got
sports rocking.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Yeah, Peter's dad usually has it on if it's an
Auburn football game, but besides that, not really much interest.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
So if it doesn't, it's not War Eagle, it's not
the Iron Bowl. He ain't watching.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Yeah, he's not. I don't think he's hardcore as some
of us are.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Ray. If it doesn't War Eagle Fly, it dies.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
So I'm like, all right, So we're getting everything together
and we're all right, picked up all the lunch, close
the door, and start walking. We get about three houses.
Dad and my wife's like, yeah, I think me and
Peter's mom we're gonna go to a couple open houses
in the neighborhood. We're gonna walk.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
What does this club, dude, you guys just walk. The
kids are gone day date front yard. You and Peter
are going stag. This is a crazy neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
And I'm like, wait, wait, and she's like, yes, I
figure you guys, you and Peter's dad will watch the kids.
And I'm like, but the masters, like they've already teed off,
and she's like, yeah, there's two open houses that me
and Peter's mom want to go look at, just to
you know, be nosy and see what they look like
on the inside like that, and then she goes, but

(07:42):
you know, if you don't want to come, you don't
have to.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Come look and see their counters?

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Are they And as we are three houses away from
my house, I'm like, I need to be a good dad.
I need to go and spend time with the kids,
spend time with Peter, Peter's dad, let the kids run around.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
You didn't have a choice, the women and we're going,
somebody needs to be with these kids.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
No, they can be outside by themselves. She yah, they
can be outside by themselves, No problem.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
I ain't letting the baby outside by himself.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
He's only he's three, He's not a baby. And you
have other kids that are older six year olds that
are watching him.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
We still call him the baby.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
I'm not a baby. That's what mine says. That's exactly
what baby Box three is.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
That's why I still call him a baby.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
I'm like, oh, you're my baby. I'm not a baby.
I'm a big kid. I'm a big kid.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Call Henny the baby. I'm gonna call him a baby
till he's eighteen.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Love it. And so I look at my wife and
I say, are you sure? She goes yeah. I said,
you know what, I'm gonna do something selfish right now.
I'm gonna turn around and I'm gonna walk the three
houses back and I'm gonna plant my ass on the
couch and I'm gonna watch the Masters.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
That might have been loud, Sorry, guys in your vehicles.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
And she goes, you're gonna watch the whole thing. I said, no,
I'll just watch a few holes and then I'll come
over there. Then I'll come over. She goes, okay, yeah,
why don't you do that? So I went back home,
opened the front door, walked in, got me all comfortable
on the couch, got the channel changers, turned on the
TV and Rory was losing the Masters. Yes, Bryson d

(09:17):
Chambeau was in the lead, and I was like, what happened.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Because we were getting more kid updates in the front
lawn than Rory in the front nine. Hey, man, we're
talking golf.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Then I sat there and nothing exciting was happening.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
It's golf.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
Rory started birdying and he takes like a I mean
from three whole three to ten. Nothing exciting was happening.
It was just like this tournament is over.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
The back nine where it's on the line.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
And nobody was making mistakes. And I was like. I
texted my wife. I said, hey, you know what, Rory's
got a four shot lead here. I'm about to head
over there. And she said, okay, we're almost done to
the last open house. I'll see you over there.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
The way you're intertwining with your day and how the
Masters played out phenomenal radio work.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
And this is when Rory had hit on the par
five and decided to lay up. So his third shot
is the chip into the green. And I just texted
my wife and I texted Garrett Greg Jacob and I
telled them I was like, man, this tournament, I'll tell
you what Rory has taken gotten all the luck every
time he hits it in the trees. He was having

(10:29):
a window correct all weekend. He was driving it to
the right, and every time he had a window to
get it up over the trees, it was amazing.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Maybe you're saying maybe the groundskeepers made these windows for
people like Rory who led it to hang out and waggle.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
And Garrett text back goes sounds like you're not much
of a Rory fan. Why are you such a Rory hater?
I said, no, no, no, I'm not a Rory hater. I said,
I'm excited for him that he's about to put on
the green Jack. Yes, I said, I just I'm amazed
at how lucky he's gotten on these and he's taken
advantage of.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
It, like and you had, Oberg.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
I told you a berg at the very beginning to Oldberg?

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Is it Oberg?

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah? Whatever? I do like watching him play because he
just walks up and hits it like there is no
waste of time.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
He just walks up. Why next shot? Who's the other guy?
No wasted time? Is it Rory?

Speaker 2 (11:20):
No, Rory takes a long time.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Maybe it's Justin Rose.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Oh no, Justin Rose took a long time. Different guy,
A different guy anyway. So I was just texting Garrett
and I was like, no, I'm excited. He's about to
win the green jacket. This is really cool. It's a
great moment for sports. Then the par five came and
he has that ship from eighty five yards and all
he has to do is hit it left. I mean

(11:43):
anywhere left. It's on the green. He can two put,
it doesn't matter, bunker whatever. And somehow, I don't know
what he does. They say, oh my rah, whoa. It
goes into the creek. They said he missed his target
by thirty five yards.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Shit, yeah, and oh.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Then the text messages start flying. I immediately texted the
wife back, Hey, Rory, just hitting the creek. Things are
getting interesting, Things are getting interesting.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
I'm not gonna make it to Peters. You're gonna have
to handle the kids.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
I'm not and she goes, actually, I'm headed back. Peter
was going to get a haircut, so his dad was
taking him. So I'm gonna get the boys and we're
gonna come home. Peter was getting frisky, and I mean
he hits it in the creek and d Chambeau had
already hit it in the creek the hole before on
the when he tried to whack it, and he because
he was down by four or five strophies, like, I

(12:36):
gotta take a chance. Little did he know Rory was
gonna hand him an opportunity. He was gonna open the
golden door. Say hey, guys, I can't handle this. I
am crapping down my pants. He hits it in the creek.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
It got political, the two names you just mentioned, Rory
and Deshambo. It became with the announcers a little PGA
live politics. It didn't it, did it?

Speaker 2 (12:57):
Did you really felt that? Oh?

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yeah, that guy alongside Nance, he was, oh, not good,
not good? What Deshambo did? Not good? But if Rory,
oh Rory, beautiful, beautiful work by Rory, Oh Deshambo. What
was he thinking? Oh? Whatever, the guy's name is, Well,
he's the guy. He's the guy in waiting. Because guess
what that was it for Nance? That was it was it.

(13:23):
We'll talk about it later.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
I anyway, So it starts and then Justin Rose starts
catching fire again.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
All of a sudden, he made twenty birdies in eighteen holes.
He was on fire.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
And the day before he down his leg, he did
crap down his leg.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
On a Saturday, he cleaned it up and he came
out on Sunday.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
He wiped it, cleaned it, said I am ready to go,
put his big boy pants on, and just started hitting
darts and all of a sudden they're tied. And then
I think Justin Rose takes the lead by one. I
mean it was like, oh my gosh, it was pandemonium.
And then I freaking Rory gets on seventeen when he
hits it behind the tree gut and he has to

(14:04):
hook it and he rips it and it curves and
it comes and it roll and he's going.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Goball, go go go and go. It went.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
It rolled with you know, within a couple of feet
of the whole w Oh my gosh. The text messages
are flying again.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
Whoa wowo woa.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
And he sinks the birdie for a one shot lead.
Justin Rose on eighteen sinks a huge put. Oh my goodness.
How much was his ten feet? Probably fifteen to twenty.
I mean it was a long put.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
Because I made the mistake. I had the TV low
key flex, I had the TV outside. I was cleaning
the house, so I never saw any of this, but
I heard it all. So I don't know how far
his pett was.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
It was long. It was so clutch.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
You're painting the picture for me right now. It was
so clutch, dude, it was so.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Long, You're like, no, wait, and it just started going
and going and boom, bottom of the cup, bottom of
the cup, and the crowd's going crazy.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
So Rory, let's tell the rich people clap.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
He comes to eighteen.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Always gotta do is par how far was his because
I thought it was a gimme hold up? But again,
Nance doesn't do a great job of painting the picture
or his lad next to him. Oh, Rory's been great.
On the other hand of Shamble, he's been struggling.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
But Rory just the nerves were getting him. The nerves,
I mean, obviously he was making some bad shots. He
looked like us. He played safe golf on that par five,
and then he chipped it in the creek and I
literally started thinking, oh my gosh, this is Jordan's speeth
all over again. When he chili dipped, I thought this
he's gonna he's gonna blow this masters.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
But you realize with his masters, it's not the worst
thing to hit it in that creek, because you still
got a good shot and you can still make par.
The creeks aren't the end of the world at this Masters.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
No, No, it wouldn't have been the end of the world.
But he had laid up, so it was his third shot,
so he was dropping hitting five. If he would if
he would have gone.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
For it in two, and I might be on a
different hole. Raised creek are you referring to.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
I don't know which creek it was, due right, it's
one of the tributaries. I don't know which creek it was.
I don't know which pond it was. But he hit
it in it and it was it was a par five.
And if you would have hit it in in his
second shot, yeah, you can drop and still make par.
But he hit it in in his third shot, drop four,
hitting five. All bets are off. We're double bogging this
bad boy.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
I love how we caught the Masters, and every green
was glass. But there was one hole sixteen fourteen thirteen
where it was a par five and every guy eagled it.
You could make it onto the green feet away in
two shots. Honda, Huh, guys, this is the mask. I mean,
brother could get there in three.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
The fact that they are hitting their second shot with
an eight iron two hundred and twenty yards two hundred
and ten yards is unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
And they go right through the trees a little bit.
We're not able to do that.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Exactly phenomenal. So Rory hits the next drive. It's just
he's so nervous. Eighteen smacks it right down the pipe
and he's like one hundred and twenty seven yards out.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
All he has to do is put it on the
green to pot it and win the mask, win the masters,
find your green pajamas. And what does he do?

Speaker 2 (17:22):
He does exactly what you I freaking Miguel Landon loker,
tall guy, this is what all of us golfers do.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
I was cleaning the house. Nance doesn't do a good
job explaining which side it went on. Was it the
bunker side or was it in the rough side? And
you gotta call it second rough.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
He hit it. There's a bunker on the left of
the green and the right of the green, and he
shanks it right into the bunker on the right side,
and you're like.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Oh my god, oh my god, you told it better
than Nance.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Now he has to chip out of the sand trap,
get it close enough and get it in to win
the Masters. And here's the problem. The kids are now home,
the wife is back. We have Padre's practice at six
pm Central time.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
I thought Padres Rockies was earlier in the day. No Padres.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
We had practice Sunday night, six pm, six to seven,
and I text I'm one of the coaches, and I said,
oh man, this coach is having a little heartburn. I
don't know if I'm gonna able to make it. I
don't know if it's the Master's giving me a heart
attack or if I'm just not feeling well.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
And what do they call you? Coach k dodging his team.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Already, and the other coach sextly goes I was about
to text the same thing, but he didn't say. We
didn't decide to cancel practice. So I'm sitting there going,
oh my god. So Rory gets in the bunker, chips
it out, goes past the whole about four or five feet,
and I'm like, okay, here we go.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
It was a gumme.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
It wasn't a gimme. Nothing is a gimme, an Augusta.
Did you see Patrick Reid? He had three feet and
he double bogies.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
You see do you see our boy Homa? Do you
see our No, not saw Homa hit somebody that? And
did you see our boy? Give me a minute?

Speaker 2 (19:15):
I've given you me a minute.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
The guy uh Carson Young, Cameron Young. He missed from
He missed four different from three feet. He kept hitting
it on each side of the hole. He got like
an eight. You gotta watch it. That's sad, dude, It's sad.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
And so I'm like, here we go and d Schambeau
does what he's supposed to do. He gets out of
the way class act, leaves the spotlight to Rory and
he stands over that putt for the masters slides by
on the right hand side. No, no, he didn't make

(19:55):
it right ron sound effect, he didn't make it.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
And the crowd U not a phone there people living
in the moment, living in the moment.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
Ray. The time was five fifty three pm. When what
are you doing?

Speaker 1 (20:09):
What are you doing during the downtime? Is what I
want to know. How many of these guys are we
grabbing butts? I mean, what are you doing during those
kind of moments? There's no phones to dilly dally on.
You're playing pocketpool?

Speaker 2 (20:20):
You know what? I did find interesting though.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Ray you find a skirt.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
Ray is Rory is walking up to the eighteenth like
he is walking down the fairway after he hit it
in the sand. He's walking up and they're showing the crowd,
showing the crowd, no running, and they there's just people everywhere.
And they then they show a shot of Justin Rose
on the practice the driving range, just practicing his shot
just in case there's a playoff.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
Justin Rowe. Oh, I've seen Justin Thomas and he was
missed by fifteen and there.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
Was a crowd of like ten people sitting at the
driving range watching Justin Rose. I'm like, guys, you're at
the freaking Masters and you're watching a guy practice swing
in case there's a playoff, I think you need to
head to eighteen where the drama is unfolding.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
What are those drinks they have there? The Azalea drink,
A couple of too many of those? You think you're
on eighteen.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
They I mean they're just sitting there and they got
there in the word, they're in the seats.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Dude at the driving range. Boy, I'm telling you he's
not gonna be hitting the same drive over and over
if he's on eighteen. It's got to be a different
part of grass that we're looking for. This isn't it, dude?
Some women don't know the game. I bet we could
trick Baser into thinking a practice shot was an actual
shot for the tournament.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
Hu. I mean, they're just sitting there in the and
I'm like, guys, what are we doing?

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Anyway?

Speaker 2 (21:42):
Rory misses the putt at five point fifty three. He
taps in for the bug. Here we're going to playoff,
and guess what I had to do?

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Change diapers.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
I had to turn it off. I had to go
to baseball practice. At five fifty three. We were ten
minutes late to baseball because I had to go. So
I'll tell you how I found out who won.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah, right after this, you tell us, because I had
I was cleaning the house.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Son'd you watch the playoff?

Speaker 1 (22:10):
All ray? Yeah? I had the TV on, but I
was cleaning the house, so I wasn't watching it. I
just had the volume on one hundred and I was
listening to Nance call his final Masters.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
Now I showed up to baseball practice ten minutes late. Sorry, guys,
A bug in my stomach flew out. Feel better, and
I yelled, no, master's talk because I've got it recording
at the house. Didn't even take my phone. Nobody has
phones on them. I said, this is like Augusta. No
phones out, please.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
No phones out.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
There were dads there, and one dad's like a mausers,
He's like, I was gonna give you a play by play.
I'm watching it on my phone.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
He's in a five dollars pool at work and I'm
mid him cook.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
And there's only six kids that showed up to practice
out of eleven. Oh nicety. I said, okay, man, I
go ahead and give us play by play. They're both
in the fairway, both on the green, and.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Two there's a dad doing this justin.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Rose in for Parr. Rory made the play for Barty.
He wins.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Thanks Frank, you ever considered play by play? You could
replace nance Yep.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
Made it sound like no drama, like it was just
walk in the park for Rory, that nothing happened. Didn't
tell me about Rory's celebration, none of it.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
He went reverse Cobra knees.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
So then I get home, I know that one ray
from college. We eat dinner, we bathe the kids, and
then I tell my wife and say hey, you want
to watch anything on TV? She goes, aren't you gonna
watch the Last Hole? The Masters? I was like, I
absolutely am. I wasn't gonna let you watch anything. I
was testing you let me sit down and watch this.
So at nine fifteen pm last night, honey.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
Why don't you go throw on your green lingerie?

Speaker 2 (23:56):
I turned on the recorded version of the last hole
and I fast forwarded all through the crap where he
has to go turn in his score card, and then
I laughed out loud. It's because, hey, in these golf
tournaments were not allowed golf carts. But in the playoff
here getting the golf cart, we'll drive you to the
freaking hole. Like what I thought we weren't allowed golf carts?

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Man or some guy gonna pull out his phone?

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yeah, and then oh wait, hold on, Justin Rose has
been done playing golf for about an hour.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
That's not a disadvantage, but no, he's.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
On the driving range for that long and then he's
still he was later getting to the tea box than
Rory because he's getting a few extra swings in Rory
didn't get to go get swings. He had to go
in and turn in his scorecard. And sign something and
get a drink of water, take a piss and get
back out to the tea box. A little unfair if
you ask me, but whatever, Hey, just put him in
the golf cart.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
Rory had to make sure he hugged the right woman.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
Oh, ray, more on that late he did.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
That was awkward. Yeah, she uh put the old bonnet
over the eye and said give me a hug.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
H I mean she had a big old hat.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
She said. The bigger the bonnet, the less likely the pops.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
He told that, lady. Don't walk by me. Hey, ballyones
kick rocks. Yes, stay on the other side of the
green there, girl, he's my man. We're back together, allegedly.
So they get up there and I don't know how
they determine the order, but justin Rose goes first and
whack right down the freaking middle.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Did you have Rose? No? Did you have Rory? No?
You're just watching something for the love of the game. Yes,
what an American? Me too? Me too? And you know what?
It was kind of let down and boring. Where's my clap?

Speaker 2 (25:29):
Well? How was it let down and boring?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
I always like to have a little skin on it,
to actually watch something without skin it took a lot,
but I was there with you buy dude, the emotional
ups and downs.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
I did not know how Rory was going to recover.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
He's not our kid.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
I mean he like when he went for it.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
I didn't know the significance of it. Actually, Baser said,
has anybody ever won the Grand Slam? And I said, no,
He's the first, and then apparently five guys have done.
Oh my god, Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
This is why we win awards, this is.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
Why we will. The cool thing was nobody's done it
in twenty five years. Tiger was two thousand, Rory twenty
twenty five.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
When after he had chipped into the water and then
the next hole he goes for it like he he
freaking whacks that on the next par five instead of
laying I'm yelling at the TV. Lay up, dude, lay
up again, Lay up again, and he hooks it around
those trees. He puts it on there and he gets
it there in two on that par five. I mean,
the guts it takes. And then at that point he

(26:26):
was putting for eagle and a two shot lead, and
guess what happened. My damn cable went out. I forgot
to tell you that, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Did you just rewind? So I'm so confused.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
So anyway, let's go back to the playoff home. So Rory,
after I mean, all the emotions he's been through, you
see your competitor. It's a sudden death playoff. He stripes
it right down the middle and you have crapped down
your leg both sides the last five holes.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
But Rory knows deep down, Rows kind of sucks.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
Rose usually loses these.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
After he's hit it right down the middle. You gotta
step up, calm your nerves after blowing.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
It and got his whole. Those cameras at CBS were
not doing Rose any favors. He looked sixty five and
he need a botox.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
Question.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
How old is he? I thought seventy? He is ninety
years old, dude, He for whatever camera it was bad lighting.
He looked eighty. Rory looked thirty two with a divorce saying,
a widowed wife and a side piece. Holy hell, two
different lives, one course, we know drama.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
My wife even made the comment they are sitting there
on the eighteenth tea box before they're about to see
off in the playoff hole. Didn't see it only hurd
it and they are inches from all the spectators and
everybody is dead silent, And my wife goes, this is
so awkward. She goes, they are so close to everyone
and no one is acknowledging either side, like no one

(27:56):
is looking like Rory is staring at him, and I
do like, they're not there, not even saying hi. She goes,
this other guy, they can't even wave to the fans.
The fans can't wait. Back, she goes, the fans aren't
even talking to each other. She goes, this is beyond awkward.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Well, Bryson and Rory didn't talk. I saw that. Justin
and Rory looks like didn't talk.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Did not talk. And he gets up. Rory does and I'm.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
Like, oh my gosh, please dude, please please hit it
in the fairway.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Whack right down the freaking middle.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
And I'm like, oh, Rory, advantage Rory.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
He is thirty eight yards ahead of Justin Rowe.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Advantage Rory.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
So Justin Rose steps up wack sticks it on the
green about twelve to fourteen feet out.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
See at this point I was actually watching this now
because I jumped in the shower, so I was able
to see this in my own eyes. I didn't need
Nance butchering another call.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
And I was so impressed because then Rory has that
same gap wedge in his hand that he had the same.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
One in my bag from the Sore Loser's Nation, the
old fifty six. They got it for us for a present.
I used the same one as Rory and Cobra. It's
the same cobras and condoms.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
You don't quit him, two things I don't with. And
it's the same shot that he had on eighteen, just
a few moments ago when he poet no it was.
It was the exact same shot, dude.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Great foreshadowing because I have my quotes from Nance that
literally made me hate him and he needs to retire
today continue.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
And I'm like, oh my gosh, like and I and
I don't like to like meltdowns are hard, Like it's
crazy to watch it. I'm like, this is going to
ruin his career like it did.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Speak would call him crash outs.

Speaker 2 (29:36):
And he pulls that club back what and Justin Rose
almost dunked it, by the way, I mean his hit
right by the hole.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
See at that point, I was grabbing the towel, so
I missed when it hit. But I saw it was
fifteen oils.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Oh my god, it hit right, and he always hit
the stick. Yes, saw it went past Rory's went back,
passed the stick.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
God that.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
Within three feet went in three feet.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
Here we go. It's over. It's not over.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
Justin Rose as a twelve to thirteen footer, that's not
much in it, they said, as they said, that's not
there's not much to this Putt's very makeable putt.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Easy for you to say with your hot toddy.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
And Justin Rose takes an hour to line up his putt.
He goes to every side and he goes. He pulls
that left shoulder sleeve up, tucks it under his armpit,
pulls the club back, slides to the right, taps it
in for par And now it is Rory's chance to
clean up all that diarrhea that he has in his

(30:44):
pants that he has just done all over this course.
The groundscrew is gonna have a hell of a time
today picking up all that crap that he dropped from
number fourteen to number eighteen. He measures it, looks at
it from every angle, stands over it, brings the putterback,

(31:05):
and he throws the club in the air, and he
falls to his knee knee cobra and he cries and
cries and look at the relief on his face.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
He was reversed. If you guys are in your trucks, guys,
just so you can envision it and just give you
guys a little bit of some color for this. He
was reverse caught cobra and the green was the man
and then on top of it and I reverse cow.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
Whirl and he's going crazy. And the celebration, the fans,
the emotion on Rory's face and his tears and his
excitement was amazing. And then I sat there and I
was telling my wife. I was like this, justin Rose, dude,
there was a playoff back in twenty seventeen. Guess what.
He lost that one too, at the same tournament. She
was like, oh my gosh, I don't want to hear that.

(31:52):
I said, this is his third time getting second at
the Master. She goes, has he ever won? I'm like nope.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
She's like, oh no.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
And the last major last year he got second place.
Two majors in a row, he got second place. Poor
Justin Rose. But man, it was awesome and the crowd
was going crazy, and I didn't know Rory McRoy had
so many friends. I've never seen someone hug so many
people on the way to the clubhouse.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Yeah, he had a bros that were there. I'm guessing trainers,
family members. Every guy from his country or continent hugged him,
hugged Lowry for some reasons, best friends with him. I
didn't even know the guy ever made it past the
buffet line, but all of a sudden, he's best friends
with Rory at the Masters. Way too many white people
there are way too much affluence. That was the wealth
of Augusta in the South. That was a lot, and

(32:37):
that was a lot either good old boys clubs. All
here go Rory.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
I do like the way Rory hugged and kissed his wife,
hugged the daughter, gave the daughter back to the wife,
and then he said, you guys stay behind me. I'm
gonna I'm gonna walk ahead, and they want to go
talk to about you. They were about twenty feet behind
him the whole way. Usually you walk hand in hand
and walk next to each other, but he's like, here,
you guys, just bring up the rear. It was very interesting.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Laura beser goes, isn't he supposed to walk with his
wife at that crowd, and I go, no, no, no, no,
it's known and if there's marriage troubles. The woman stays back, very.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Very alarming that she was just in the background. Rory
is crying. He goes into butler cabin, he gets the jacket.
He breaks down, crying, talking about wanting to go see
his mom and dad and celebrate with them. Congratulations, Rory.
I can't believe you were able to control the diarrhea
and get it done. You want to talk about Jim Nance.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
I have my top three Jim Nance quotes and we
can lay him out to pasture.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Right after this, I thought Jim Nance did good.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
He disappeared. I was only doing audio from the TV.
The sun hits it at a weird area, so I'm
gonna start to realize I might not be able to
do a patio TV. We got massive situations. We have
one thing. We just roll out now. And guys, I
couldn't see the screen from two until about five, so
I heard audio Nance took off holes twelve through sixteen.
Other guy, ooh, Bryson not playing so well? Rory? Good, Rory,

(34:05):
I mean, guys, let's get political, alright, Live versus PGA,
we get it. Here's the top three reasons Jim Nance
is gonna retire, guys. I thought he was taking those
four holes to do his acceptance speech. He thought it
was bigger than the Masters and he was gonna retire.
I thought he was crying in Butler cabin or something
like that. I don't know what happened to him. I
think it just is how it played out. Maybe Nance

(34:25):
had more importance if another like if Bryson was doing better,
maybe Nance had more of a role. But then since
Bryson fell back, then it was his sidekicks job to
do the Rory play by play. It was weird. You
didn't hear from Nance for about forty five minutes. At times,
I will.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
Say the Butler cabin is so awkward, like Scotti Scheffler
sits there and doesn't say a word that you just
sit there with your hands in your lap, and then
you put the jacket on him and then you immediately
jet out of the cabin. They see him just du
like hall Ass. It's like so weird and so awkward,
but getting the green jacket is freaking cool.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
Here you go, guys. Three reasons Nance and his quotes
from the tournament. Actually the like the final twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Nance.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
Nine holes for glory for Rory. We don't need you
to rhyme glory and Rory. Thanks, Nance, appreciate the poem.
Number two Nance quote why he needs to be laid
to pasture. Rory's a different player than he was in
twenty eleven. It's twenty twenty five, Rory, Nance, pardon my French?

(35:32):
What the does that mean? I actually have four? So no,
no crap.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Of course he's a different golfer. He's how many he's
fourteen years older. Maybe he can maybe hit it farther,
maybe he doesn't hit it as far. Maybe he's better
with his irons, maybe he's a better putter. If he's
the same golf, There's no way he's the same golfer
he was fourteen years ago. It's just impossible.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
Guys, I actually had power. I'm blessing you with two
more jim nantz thank you bring it. And I guess
this was towards the end of it because I did
all these quotes from three forty three to four oh six,
so he must have just been hammered me with some quotes.
And then he goes number two reason Nance needs to
go to pasture.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Can't read your own text. Oh boy, well that is
a good that's a really cool. That's a good one.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Okay, he can't do what he did in twenty eleven.
Now back to eleven. He segueing twenty eleven and then eleventh. Oh, guys,
what a call by Nance.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
I mean that is beauty, fin this is beauty and fine.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
This is what I fell out of my chair scrubbing
bird shit off of my house when I heard this one. Guys,
that please be the bleep on the three. Thank you,
it's not the same dial that's in house. You guys
don't need to know that one. Jim Nance number one
reason it needs to be laid in the past year.
Here's the quote on whole fourteen, Bobby Jones looking down

(37:03):
on this hole.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Nance.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Who are you to say some ghost or angel is
looking down on this hole as these golfers are hitting?
What are we're taking the liberties? Just say that a
person's angel is watching over a hole. I can't, I
can't Bobby Jones is looking down on this hole. I can't.

(37:29):
I'm out.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
I'm out.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Nance. Nance has been laid to rest. Thank you, Nance. Hey, guys,
we had one more flashback of a shot with Bryson,
a Shambo or Rory from ten years ago. I kept
thinking they were hitting like eagle shots. I thought Tiger
got that one shot that came down the green and
rolled in with the Nike sign. Guys, so many flashbacks.
I didn't know what was from yesteryear and what was
from twenty twenty five. Every time.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
I do love the fact that they always say, oh,
this is the spot, the same spot that Ben Krinshaw
made a putt in nineteen seventy two, This spot is
where Danny Willett made a putt back in twenty twelve.
I mean, and there's been a Listen, guys, there's been
eighty nine years of this tournament, so I'm pretty sure

(38:15):
someone has made a putt from pretty much everywhere on
each green.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
Jim NaN's do you remember this one on seventeen? That's
a Deki Yamatsuyama. That's when he chili dipped.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
Hey, do you remember when Jordan Speed's hit in this creek?
I mean, guys, there is a shot for every spot
on that course. Eighty nine years times how eighty five golfers.
That's a hell of a lot of people. That have
played golf and played four rounds on that course every year.
So I'm gonna assume there's been a putt made or
a chip made from almost every low cation.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
They were linking these shots to shots from the past
fifty years. The entire tournament.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
Now was Bobby Jones. Was that his favorite hole? I
don't know, but to say he's looking down, He's probably
looking down on all the holes.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
Man, he cares about this hole.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
I don't thought he'd be watching Justin Rose on the
driving range.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
I mean, you cannot take those liberties? Why not?

Speaker 2 (39:12):
And then I mean Tiger Woods.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
Popping an ib profen as he watches this hole back
to seven. This is the hole. You remember this one, Jim.
This was the hole before the Perkins Parking Lot bike. Guys,
we can't take liberties about this.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
This is the last hole he played before Ellen took
the golf club to his windshield.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
Jim Nanz, you remember this hole. This was hole one.
It was the hole just after he had those lucky
charms breakfast cereals with Rachel Yucutel back at the penthouse
sweet and before he banged her and then came to
the first hole.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
Jim, this is the This is the hole that we
found out that Justin Johnson was withdrawing because he quote
unquote fell down the stairs the night before with a
bad back.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
Jim, this is actually the hole that he fell out
with his caddy and he said, fuck you you, I'm
getting another caddy. So you go right to book, you little.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
And then I felt bad for Justin Rose because as
they're walking up.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
All I saw for him the whole tournament was plus nine.
Well he had a plus by his name. The entire
attorney who Justin Rose? Yeah? H I keep continuing, Thomas.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
But they're walking up the eighteenth in the playoff, and
the whole crowd is chanting.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
Rory, Rory, Rory, r right, the good old boys Club.
Let some boy from England come over here.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
Well, what do you think, where do you think Rory's from? Man?
We got two boys from England? Or I mean, Justin
Rose has to be going damn the duds like they
all like, and no one likes me. Huh, I get
a cool man. I'm not popular. That lets you know
how popular you are on the PGA tour because it's

(41:07):
Rory Rory, Rory Rory. And then I love the interview
right when he comes off, So justin you came up
a little short, yeah, man like, and he's his own
good space. Yeah, you know, but it just tells me
that I'm right there. It's like, oh my gosh, that's
the word. It's the most painful interview. And they have
to do it.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
They don't have to do it.

Speaker 2 (41:27):
They don't have to do it.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
Just came out. Golfer said, they don't have to do
the interviews, whereas the other sports have to.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Yeah, but it was fantastic. What a weekend. We'll take
a break, we'll be right back. Hit it, hit it, what.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
Nico? The day the Nico died.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
Well, I was gonna talk about that, and we were
singing bye bye to.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
We're gonna find us a better state. We're gonna find
us a team that's not in the SEC because then
we'd have to sit out a year.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
He's gonna add, I mean, I don't understand. Here's my thing, dude,
I tell you what.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
It was emasculating all weekend. I found out that there
hasn't been there's been more than one Grand Slam winner.
Makes sense if I actually sat down and cave two
craps about that stat I would agree, Hogan probably did it,
Nicholas probably did it, Tiger for sure did it, Rory
did it. Okay, there's been five Grand Slam winners.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Awesome.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
Baser told me that. Good to know. Baser also told
me another fun fact. She said, what was it?

Speaker 2 (42:31):
Something?

Speaker 1 (42:31):
I have no idea. The other fun fact was I
didn't know Nico got traded until Saturday morning. She goes,
did you know we lost our quarterback? And that's funny.
I'll check some sites later. No, no, no, I'm serious. I
think Nico Imamaliava went to another team. Okay, that doesn't
happen in college. That's cute. I'll check later. I'll check
the websites. There's no way that happened. I don't know.
Some people text me. I go to ESPN dot com.

(42:53):
Nico Imamaliava headed for another team. What the Baser's breaking
news all weekend? To he?

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Good God, I mean absolutely, hats off to Tennessee because
Nico and Ma la Ma da ma naa. Has he
been anywhere near as good as he was supposed to be?

Speaker 1 (43:14):
He started off, He started off hotter and a fire cracker,
harder and pistol, and when he's going the Heisman. But
when he when he needed to play against the big boys,
he didn't come to play.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
We watched him play against Kentucky. Did he look amazing
and unbelievable and unstoppable in this four million dollar threat?
No chance.

Speaker 1 (43:32):
Well you took all that video of him.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Well I did. I said, Oh, he's throwing ropes, he's
throwing ropes. But he and then he got in the game,
he didn't throw any ropes. And I just think about it.
I'm like, all the these athletes have all the power
right now. At some point, some of these schools are
gonna have to stand up and be like, you know what,
I ain't paying that crap, go go find it somewhere else.
And Tennessee did it. They said, you know what, you
think you're so good, you think someone's gonna give you

(43:56):
four million dollars. Right, most big programs they already have
their quarterback for next year. They've gone through spring ball,
so they have who they want to ride with. And
this dude is now out there and he may some
school may sign him, but I hope he ends up

(44:16):
at somewhere like Samford, someone that, you know, some crappy
small school that's willing to pay him four million dollars
and he gets to play Samford versus Austin p Samford
versus Bucknell, and he plays terrible teams because he ain't
that good and maybe he'll go somewhere else and be awesome,
but he wasn't that good. Tennessee has studs behind him

(44:37):
at quarterback and they said, you know what, you're not
gonna hold us hostage. You're not gonna not show up
to practice. You're not gonna not show up to meetings
and the spring game or scrimmage or whatever they did
get out of here.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (44:51):
I hope for the I really hope he overplayed his cards.
I really hope he's just sitting there in two weeks going, man,
I really wish I wouldn't have done that.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
Wow, Man, what am I gonna do? Ah? Crap? And
the Tennessee has one guy in the wing and his
name is Sam Slinger Merk Slinger, and I went on
his Instagram and I said, you are now him with
a little orange peel twenty likes right away. He is
already part of vall Nation. Welcome Sam Merk Slinger to
Nashville Knoxville. And I guess he's been on the team

(45:25):
for a couple of years or so.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
Where's he from?

Speaker 1 (45:28):
I don't know, but he was a huge recruit. On
his one of his Instagram pages, he had twenty schools
he chose between. He picked the balls.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
See that's what I'm saying. Do you think you you
run that shop? Sam?

Speaker 1 (45:39):
What's his name? Merk Slinger?

Speaker 2 (45:41):
Sam Mark Slinger? Did you get a Nico jersey?

Speaker 1 (45:44):
I was gonna for Christmas? My god, for Christmas, dud.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
I literally thought when I saw the news. When I
saw the news, I was like, oh, my god, Ray
got a jersey. Ray got a jersey? No I was.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
I wanted a Nico I mamaliaba autographed jersey nine hundred
dollars for Christmas. Thank god my mother law didn't get
it for me. It's it's a done deal. Now I
have the Hooker autograph jersey. It's getting framed it. He
was loyal to us and he loved us when nobody
else did. I want that thing framed, and I want
it framed. Today I'll be framing it. But yes, that

(46:15):
that is the jersey that gets framed. Nico, Bro, you'd
have to take it down. I can't have a signed
Nico jersey. People are already doing. You see the when
the name tag with it, it says, I'm a yeah,
inappropriate guys, But if you have the jersey, you might
as well done.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
That was that was photographed at a Tennessee soccer game.
Looked like a big crowd for a soccer game, or
someone just took a picture from a football game months
ago and just uh photoshoped that. That was pretty ingenious.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
And they said that the father of Nico and Nico
We're gonna set out a playoff game to try and
get more nil money.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
But they ended up playing.

Speaker 2 (46:53):
And how do you do in that playoff game? Very well?

Speaker 1 (46:56):
Well, I know we we only had one huh lost it?

Speaker 2 (46:59):
Yeah, you got got Let me see how you say
it smacked around?

Speaker 1 (47:02):
Yeah, they got blowed out.

Speaker 2 (47:03):
They got blowed out. They got blowed out.

Speaker 1 (47:05):
And I think he goes to a U c l A.
He won't be an SEC school out. I don't see
he's got guys in the wing though they had two
Heisman guys last year.

Speaker 2 (47:15):
Idea, oh, I really have no idea.

Speaker 1 (47:17):
Who has what I heard? Rumor arch Manning plane was
seen in Knoxville unconfirmed it was some Twitter post, but Baser,
that might have been the third thing she broke to me.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
Arch Manning, let me tell you was not in Knoxville.
I promise you. Okay, I promise you. Arch Manning was
not anywhere near Knoxville.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Okay, Then his daddy was. Okay, arch Manning came to Knoxville.
That would change the trajectory of the state of Tennessee.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
Got Merkslager, Baby the man, he is him?

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Man said, you are now him? Hey, check it?

Speaker 2 (48:02):
Let me know how many updates this gout? How do
you like?

Speaker 1 (48:04):
Oh yeah, let's check it out. Man, Let's check it
for the murk. Where are we at? They as sports betti.

Speaker 2 (48:10):
I will say that something I thought I did it.
It was funny last night, but my boys didn't even react. Garrett, Greg, Jacob,
we all have a group text. And then one guy
I don't know, and I texted him at nine to
thirty last night after I'd watched a playoff hole. Oh
my god, this playoff hole is amazing edge of your
seat drama. Both of them hit the fairway and they

(48:32):
both just stuck it on the green.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
Oh boy, here we go.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
None of them reacted, no replies, no nothing. And then
I said, Roy Wins, Rory Wins. Whoa man watching it
on tape delay is just as exciting.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
They didn't laugh. Nothing matter. Here we go. This is
some eighteen year old one minute after news broke. I said,
you are him Orange Peel thirty lives, not bad, not bad.
And I'm following the kid. Oh and his name's murk Linger,
not Slinger.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
Merk Linger, Zach Mrklinger.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
And look who he's walking with, Eko Trader. Oh. I
wouldn't want to go to battle with that. His name
is Zach. What Jake Murklinger, you've told me Zach? He
had fifteen thousand followers when news broke, before news broke,
Now he has twenty seven thousand. He became a celebrity overnight.

(49:30):
All right, Jake murk I tell you what though that
NIKOI Mamali Avacat. You go to war with him. He's
one of the friendly fire kids.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
Man.

Speaker 1 (49:38):
You gotta watch your back, watch.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
Your back, Jake. Jake Merklinger a four year starter at
Cavalry Day School in Savannah, Georgia, who finished his prep
career with an impressive forty two to ten record and
one hundred and forty five touchdowns, one hundred and thirteen passing,
thirty two rushing.

Speaker 1 (49:53):
They said he can hook it, but he ain't got
the legs.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Niko did, you don't need the legs. You're good, Jake.
He's gonna great, dude, write a great move. Happy Monday, guys,
we gotta go celebrate the green jacket. Arnold will be
back on Wednesday to tell us all about his travels,
and I know it's going to be a banger. Happy Monday,
I said, hovelin to win it.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
He was minus two, top fifteen. You said, Oberg top five, dude.

Speaker 2 (50:22):
He was top two until he quadruple bogie the last hole.
I mean, I don't know what.

Speaker 1 (50:26):
He just gave up, and you didn't let me get
to it. But my TV with me, what getting sponges
all soaked up? I missed the first hole? What happened
to Rory in the first hole?

Speaker 2 (50:37):
I told you I was eating lunch on the porch,
didn't see it. I walked three houses down the road
like I was going to go to Peter's house, and
my wife said, you don't have to come, and I said,
I'm gonna go watch a few holes. And by the
time I got in the house. He was already losing.

Speaker 1 (50:50):
I still don't know what happened on the double bogie
on number.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
Did he hit it in the trees? Did he hit
out the sand? Did he haven't out of bounds? I
have no idea.

Speaker 1 (50:57):
I was hoping one time Nance would talk about it.
Instead he goes whole seven. You can hear the birds
the trees. Ah, yes, Jack Nicholas whispering down my ear. Hey, Jack,
tiger woods. He's probably watching with a couple percocets. We'll
go to commercial. I meane they could do. They were

(51:18):
so corny. Was so much of that stuff. Let's do
a flashback the great Paul Hogan. Oh what a shot
that was, guys, just show the footage, roll of bean footage.
I love history, but I don't need a lesson for
five straight hours of how Paul Hogan shot a shot
on two that was linked to Adeki Matsuyama, that was

(51:40):
then linked to how Rory was hitting it, that was
linked to how Amanda Boonglier cheated on Rory with his
wife and her bonnet. I don't need that. And you
know those losers there at the Masters, they go get
their thousands of dollars a merch and then they carry
it around the entire day. What are you supposed to do,

(52:02):
I would imagine at the end of the day. So
not only can you not have your phones, not only
is it kind of an uptight environment, they're also lugging
bags of merch for eight hours.

Speaker 2 (52:12):
My wife asked me if you were at the Masters,
how would you do it?

Speaker 1 (52:15):
Like?

Speaker 2 (52:15):
How would you? And I said, well, depens, Am I
there a day at two day? What if I'm there
one day? Gotta walk the whole course, gotta see every hole,
got to see you know, can't follow just one player,
just go backwards and see different people, see different holes.
If you're there multiple days, you walk it one day,
then you pick a hole and you sit. Would you
be at the t box or would you be at

(52:36):
the green ray?

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Well, I know you can't go across Raised Creek, no
pun intended. You can only stay so far back. I
would have to walk the course. But I think at
some point you have to post up so you can
see the guys you want to see. I don't care
to see the amateur hitting a drive. I want to
see the raries. I want to see the roses, the Thomases,
the Hogans, the Nance. I want to see the names.

(53:00):
I want to see the Amanda Bungliaza. I want to
see those people.

Speaker 2 (53:04):
Do you want to be at the tea box or
the green? I want to be at the green because
you can see the ball come in land, see it roll,
and then you get to watch them put the green.

Speaker 1 (53:13):
No question, Why would you want to do the tea box?

Speaker 2 (53:15):
Right, all you do is see it and then they
hit it so far you can't even see the ball.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
I can't even see brothers balls most of the time.
I know.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
You think we can, they're in the woods.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
But you think we could find a Rory ball. There's
no way.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
They hit it so high and so fast and so far.
It's like, oh that was fun. See you just get
to see him stand there.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
Dude, I never thought about that. Justin always loses.

Speaker 2 (53:36):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Justin would never be able to see the balls at
a tournament. No, he's watching nothing. Yeah that sucks.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
Man.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
All right, let's go home, man, and what masterful Balllyone's
interview Rory. They let them in Butler cabin alone.

Speaker 2 (53:54):
I don't know if they was in Butler cabin. I
think it was at the Motel six.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
Was Tiger watching live from Perkins? You think Tiger watches that, Yes,
because Rory's boy.

Speaker 2 (54:09):
Apparently boys with everybody. But Bryson said they didn't talk
the whole day and I love it. Batter's Box text
me this morning, he goes, uh, does Bryson sound like
a little bee right here? And He's like, no, I
didn't talk to him once. We didn't talk, didn't talk
and I'm like, well, it's okay because they're live and
he's PGA and they had that big battle. And Rory says,

(54:30):
you know what, I like it. I don't mind him
not talking to him. And he's too busy to clean
the crap out of his pants. But he got a
green jacket. Man. But did you see what Bryson did do?
That was pretty cool. He went for a walk in
his neighborhood where he was staying for the Masters Friday
night and he sees someone's backyard lights are on and

(54:50):
it has like chipping green and putting green. Bryson knocked
on the door and chilled at the dude's house for
an hour, messing with clubs, chipping and he went back
on Saturday night too.

Speaker 1 (55:01):
How cool is that? That has to be a YouTube video.
How crazy Ray. It'll be probably up on his YouTube page.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
It might be. But he just knocks on this dude's door,
and the dude's in his pajamas, tells his wife, Hey,
change out your pajamas. Like Bryson's here. He wants to
play golf in the backyard.

Speaker 1 (55:21):
Ah, this is a good old boys club. Bryce's found
us here. Manna go home. You're like a little bit
of a whiskey or what about a rip Van winkleboy, Hey,
my Betty, put on some clothes. Bryson's here to the
good old boys club. Well, here in the South, we
are money. We are affluents. I got a chip and

(55:44):
green in my backyard. We are the We are the
good boys. Come on, let's have from whiskey and wash Bryson.
We are a rich, white, affluent South. We are Augusta.
That's all I thought of the whole weekend is how
rich these people are gotta be. They're all riches. Crap,

(56:06):
they have a lottery. Okay, but you know what, five
percent of those people are rich. You think, Yes, there
ain't no poor people in there. It's all rich people.
They interviewed. They went around and interview twenty people how
much they spend on merch minimum every person two grand.
The one lady goes, feel guilty for saying this. Can
I say the right number? And they go, yeah, please

(56:27):
just five thousand? No way, they went away. Dude, they're
all dropping two four or five thousand? How much is
a shirt? The one guy goes. The one guy is
pretty cool, He goes, do I come back? I keep up. Uh, well,
the first day I need two thousand, second day might
be three. Dude, what the stuff is decently reasonable? But
you can only get the stuff at Augusta. I under

(56:48):
why the shirt that I was wearing was so special
you can only get it out Augusta.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
I understand. So these people are You're spending five thousand
dollars on presents.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
They have gnomes like people put these masters lawn gnomes.
They have shirts. If the guy's like, well, this is
Polo a beautiful Polo hats T shirts another Polo a
pollover warmer like fleece coats to whin we were. I mean,
they were gorgeous. You can't get them anywhere else. They
don't sell them online. You can only get it at Augusta.

Speaker 2 (57:15):
Yeah, you're right, But I can't spend five thousand. That
seems nuts, all right,
