Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, I'm sorry, man, I apologize. It's okay. No, no, no,

Speaker 2 (00:08):
I no, no, no, Like I mean you hated every minute
of it. Like I don't know if you had one
ounce of fun I could tell from the I mean
it started from the jump. Yeah, you think it started
from the jump.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
God got to make sure my MIC's on. Your mic
is on, Yo, let's go ahead and yo, check out
my melody. I want to live good U silp.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Okay, okay, it's on, Like the mic is on.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
I'm on.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
I hear you start the show because I don't want
to be interrupted. I just want to go over the
eighteen holes of golf we played, and how you were
miserable from the time you paid until the time you
got in your car and left. It was a disaster.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
No, just like gambling, the happiest time, they say, is
the moment you're giving your money to the guy behind
the desk. Same thing with golf. The minute. It's all
the prospect, the idea of what could possibly happen during
the round, The moment you give your money to the
guy at the range or whatever it's called clubhouse. Yes,
that is your highest high typically at a golf course.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Most likely because you're most likely going to hit a
few in the water. You're gonna hit a few in
the woods. You're not gonna sit there and shoot six birdies.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Hello, cartgirl, and there's.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
No cart girls anymore. That job has been wiped off
this planet a pandemic. Much good God, I didn't see
an I didn't see a marshall.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
I didn't see a marshall either. Now that you say it,
they realize, Hey, guys, we just need somebody in the clubhouse.
Give him a microphone. He can yell at people when
they're on deck. Other than that, we need one employee.
Oh and some guy that mows every once in a while.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Oh and one person to work the grill. There was
one person working.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
That was great.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
More on him later, Yeah, I'm more on him later.
But uh, yeah, I'm there. There's very few employees at
a golf course. Now, they don't need very many people.
They have one guy driving the little tractor to pick
up balls on the range, one guy working clubhouse, one
guy working grill.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
That is it.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
No more people, no cart girl. Don't worry about it.
But let's go and start the show. So we can
just get into it.

Speaker 1 (02:06):

idiots without music beds playing.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
I did hang out with Kitty this weekend.

Speaker 1 (02:20):

Speaker 2 (02:52):
I'm wearing a green jacket, just like the Masters. It
is coming in a few weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:58):

My kids, My kids, they were super excited last night
about wearing green. They were picking it out last night.
The middle baby Box two was gonna wear sunglasses, a
green like sweat band. I mean he was ready to go.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
I wake up this morning a little bit slower of
the morning. Baser's wearing a green nightgown. Dude, that chick
could not love holidays more so I love that she has, Dude,
I laughed my butt off love it.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
I love that she has something for every holiday. Dude,
that's what it's about. Really, I mean, it really is.
If you're not embracing the holidays, I don't know what
your problem is, Scrooge whatever, ba humbug, it's not even Christmas.
But you need to absorb and enjoy all these holidays
because they only come once a year.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
When I was singing, I didn't celebrate any of them.
And now I'm married, I think we hit them all.
First day of Spring were there, first day of Winter
Solstice got it. First Friday patio day. We're on a
patio drinking a beer.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Didn't know those were holidays. But I do like that
you invent your own holidays.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
We're gonna do it live. What oh the one two
three sort losers.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
about sports, so I'll give you the sports facts, my
sports opinions, because I'm pretty much.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
A sports genius, y'all. It's season. I'm from the North,
I'm an alpha male. Apparently I'm from Wyoming. What everybody's saying?
Fourteen years? That is the longest. Then I moved to Texas,
on to Tennessee, a bunch of different places. Now I'm
on the North Side with Baser. My wife, she was
a Broadway girl. When was the last time we went
to Broadway? Actually a week ago? Runch justin and I
think we're going back to Broadway and Muffy's in town

(04:50):
in a week nice so, but yeah, now we're in
the country. Parents were in town all weekend. Actually one
day it was supposed to be two. There was a
duranchow that came through town. Wasn't a tornado? Oh my gosh, bro,
did you see the stat No, I hate to bury
the lead most rain in the history of national one
hundred and fifty years in one day. Really, yeah, three
point five inches? Even ol Ray sounds familiar, even.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Even more than when they had that big flood.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Dude, NBC News they gonna lie, You're right, but posted
on the instant.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
It rained all damn day. It was just like rain, rain, wind,
more rain rain. We're not talking like a light rain.
We're talking like and where you could even take the
trash out without getting drenched.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Set my dad a video and he said it looked
like we're in a car wash. And here's my dad
and mama retired and my dad wanted to fight the
storm and come over on Saturday. I said, Dad, you're not.
This isn't war, this isn't nom or the Korean. Just
stay over there, stay in Knoxville, come over on Sunday.
And he did. Might be the first time he's ever
listened to me in his life.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
My wife was flying back from Florida and I was like,
I don't know how you guys are gonna fly because
this storm is just crazy. They were supposed to get
in at eight pm on Saturday night. They didn't get
in till ten forty on Saturday night.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Oh, I actually it's gonna be wee hours of the morning. Ray.
It was pushed back at hour two and a half hours. Yeah,
we are you waiting? Well?

Speaker 2 (06:20):
No, I was luckily at the house, and I didn't
have to go to the airport. But then I should
have checked the flight before I went to the airport,
because I got to the airport because they were supposed
to get in at ten fifteen, and so I got
there and then I clicked on the little thing and
it was like, oh, not arriving until ten fifty eight.
I'm like, oh, my gosh, I have thirty five minutes
to kill.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
That's why you need to be married to my wife, Baser.
She actually tracks the flight when it leaves that other airport. Yeah,
I don't know how to do that.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
And what happened is they had to fly out over
the Gulf of America Mexico. I don't know which one
you call it. On the plane, they called it the
Gulf of Mexico. The PA system said, uh, yeah, we
were gonna fly over the Gulf of Mexico.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Where are they coming from Florida? Why would they fly
over the gulf Because the storm.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
They had to go around the storm, so they had
to fly out and up instead of just straight up.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Daddy, we saw the Golf of America and so that
was that.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
And then they got in and we didn't get the
beds to the kids the bed till twelve thirty am.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
It's a Saturday night with a lazy Monday. You can suffice.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
But here's the thing. That's the latest they've ever stayed up.
It's probably twelve thirty am. Dude, it was you know
what I'm saying. Like they are three years old, five
years old, and six years old. They're not used to
staying up that late. It was a long travel day
from my wife. The rain was crazy, but we're burying
the lead the golf. Yes, tell it, I gotta go way. Wait,
did you have a raging river in your yard? Did
you lose any more land?

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Uh? There definitely was a river. Probably every piece of
seed that we put in the property over the past
couple weeks is now in the Gulf of America. It
took out what took it out to see, dude, it
was unbelievable amounts of rain. Thank god we have the
French drain or I think, I really do think our
house would have been flooded. But now the French train

(08:12):
pulls it towards the road, so sure our road was
our We don't have asphalt, we don't have pavements, so
our it was coverable. The majority of the day. We
had no road. If you would have went, you needed
a boat to come to my house. Back in the
day house had been gone. Thank god. I noticed it.
Told father in law Phil, Phil told somebody else. That
person told somebody else with an excavator built as a
French drain. I think those are on a couple of gees.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
I went to go take the trash out and I
did not realize there was a lake in my backyard.
Like you didn't even see it, you know, because there
weren't surprise by it.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
No, no, no, I knew his raining.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
But when I stepped one place, I was like, whoa,
and water just engulfed my shoe. Like I was like,
I did not see all that water sitting there. There
was so much freaking water.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
One pm on Saturday it started. I actually don't remember
exactly when it did start.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
It started Friday night at like eleven o'clock.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
It didn't for us, We got none, so ours actually
didn't start till Saturday. The heavy stuff, I believe, let's
say ten am. By one pm. Saw the old trucks
with the pulleys on the back. You know what that
means with fire trucks pollie someone stuck in the water
way to rescue. Oh I think we lost them. Oh no,
well I didn't look it up. But two Pulley trucks

(09:25):
and then a fire truck in multiple cop cars.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Yeah, you don't look that stuff up because it just
it's if it's bad news, you don't want to hear about.
If it's good news, then you're good. You just think
in your head good news. Don't want to know the negative.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
I got a text baser because I believe she did.
I would like to know if they passed.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Uh. My wife, she was so freaked out on Friday
night and she starts calling me, Hey, you need to
get the weather along. You need to have your helmet ready,
you need to have your shoes down in the closet.
And I understand she has PTSD because a tornado hit
you know what five.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Years ago, twenty twenty, same as a panda. Yeah, five
years ago when my kid was ten days old. I
got it. I know when it was.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
And she gets very prepared with these storms. So she
went out and bought a weather radio. She has this
app on her phone. So she makes me get the
weather radio out and I don't know how to work
it because I don't have PTSD.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Guess what.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
I just go to sleep and I just assume I'm
gonna be okay when the storm comes.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
That's hot. Knowledge is power.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
Yeah, And so she's on the face here, let's get
on FaceTime so I can show you how to use
the weather radio.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
And I'm like, all right. So so we go through the
how tos.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Of the weather radio ninety eight. Well that's not it, No,
that's not how we do it. And then she's like,
you gotta pay guy's the river on seven Zach. You
gotta follow nash severe Weather on Twitter. And I'm like,
all right, I got him. And then she's like, there's
this other app that you can down. I'm like, I
don't need another app. If I have the weather radio,

(10:50):
I'm good. Just why are you angry?

Speaker 1 (10:52):
You did sound a little angry.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
Well I sounded angry because I said the weather radio.
That's that purpose, right, It's gonna tell me when I
need to be in where I need to be. Another app?
Why do I need to have two sources? Why can't
I not just have one source that is the National
Radio Weather Service. They're gonna alert me. She goes, I
just want you to be safe.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
I'm sorry, I worry about you. I'm listening to wrap
right now. I said, I understand you're worried. I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
She goes, I'm probably not gonna sleep tonight because I'm
gonna but of gold. So ended up there was no tornadoes.
I slept through the night. My wife did not sleep
very well because she was worried, and she kept waking
up and checking the weather even though she was in
Florida and I was here.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
The weather radio, what does it say? Here go?

Speaker 2 (11:43):
And then when you hit the button, it says flash
flood warning has been issued till two am four and
it starts naving counties.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Okay, that's not beneficial.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Or tornado has been spotted on the ground in this county.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
So if you live in Blah, okay, I might need
the weather dar.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
You need to get to your safe place now. And
that is so it tells you everything. But once it
just says severe's understorm.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
My aunt, I don't need to hear that. At don't
need to hear that well, And I did my own math.
I'm tired of the news. Local station at times wasn't
even covering it. What dude, I was doing? YouTube TV
cut into the golf. Well that was at a different
time on Saturday, Saturday, early morning. There was no coverage
whatsoever of the weather, and it might even been Sunday
morning too. And on YouTube TV, if a station doesn't

(12:29):
have live events, you can't even click it. And Joe
I go, Baser, how do I find NBC? She goes,
you have to search it, and they go, how do
you search NBC? All I ever do is just click down.
If there's no live stations, you can't find the stations.
So NBC was off the air. ABCCBS they were all
airing some educational programming. They just said, it doesn't matter

(12:49):
if it hits then sorry, we don't have programming. Oh
that's rough man. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
I did tune into the golf I think at some
point on Saturday, and they had the whole weather map
and they had the golf up in the top left screen.
I'm like, guys, I think the weather is more important
than the golf. You can take the little square off
the top left of the screen and just get rid
of it and show all the craziness that's going on
with the weather.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
I mean, they're like, we're trying to get you back
to the golf. But this is very important right now.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
Update Bazer said it wasn't a water rescue. She looked
it up. It was a thunderstrike, lightning. Oh, it started
to fire. Everybody was okay, but some damage.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
Good good see everybody lived. We didn't lose anybody in
that little thing. Now we're gonna take a break because,
I mean, we got to take an early break because
we got golf. We went golfing on Friday, and I mean,
you want to talk about Ray's most miserable time of
his life, We'll tell you all about it right after this.
First of all, I've never met a bigger, bigger drama

(13:48):
queen than Ray. Oh.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
I thought you're gonna go Jay on this one.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
No, no, no, you I mean literally, oh my god,
I can't. This is why I played golf by myself,
because you guys take too long to make a decision.
I don't want to do this.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
I don't want to do that. Whatever.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
We finally got it set in stone and leave it
to Ray. You know, Ray's gonna be the first one there.
I walk in the clubhouse ready to pay, and who's
in front of me in line statistical sison.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
At your service, What up coature? What up culture? How
you doing?

Speaker 3 (14:23):
Man?

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Good to see you, Good to see you. And he's like, man,
I may buy a wedge. Right here, it says if
I buy a wedge, I get a free round of.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Golf one hundred and eighty dollars.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
The wedges were one hundred and eighty dollars, so you
don't really get a discount anyway.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
How they get you. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
So then I'm like, all right, do I have time
to hit a couple of balls? And the guy's like, yeah,
you got twenty thirty minutes. You can hit a small bucket.
I'm like, all right, cool, grab the small bucket. Ray
you gonna hit any No, man, I'm just gonna go
the putting green.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Wait for Justin did I'm not with the guy in
my back swing over the microphone. I'm not gonna have
you have ten minutes, you have five guys. I don't
need to jump scare. I know I have a decent swing.
I'm good.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
And so I get my on the golf cart and
I drive over to the driving range, getting some getting
my clubs out, and immediately, uh, gibble, party of three,
You're on deck. Gibble party of three.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
You're on deck.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
I'm like, I'm gonna have no time to hit golf ball.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
Hey buddy with the microphone, hold off, man, this isn't
a DJ fest. It's pauly d Like.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
It's literally twenty five minutes till our tea time.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
And you're telling me I'm on deck.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
That was unreal, And I'm like, oh so then I
automatically look over and I see Ray freaking out cause
you know who's nowhere to be found, Justin. Justin is
not there. Ray is trying to putt at the putting
green and he is stressed. You can see the stress
in his face, like, oh, Justin's not here. Oh my gosh,
they just called us over the PA.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
What are we gonna do? Oh my gosh. Oh.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
So he starts texting, texting Justin immediately, hey man, where
are you? We're on deck. They just called us with
a megaphone.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
And then Justin go already goes funny mode and he said,
my GPS says thirty minutes, but it was like ten minutes.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
And they goes and then Ray goes, are you serious?
He goes, no, I'll be there in ten minutes. Ray,
He's like, okay, So I hit like maybe ten balls,
maybe ten balls? You are now hitting and then says
gibble gibble party of three, a gibble threesome it is.
You are now on the tea box.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Have we ever with the PA system at a MUNI? No,
that's a first, right, that's a first. I was like,
oh my god.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
And so Ray looks at I go over to the
putting green and he's like, dude, what do we do?

Speaker 1 (16:27):
What do we do?

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Justin's not here. We're supposed to be hitting right now.
He just he came over the speaker. He goes, I
can't with the speaker, like, I'm already worried that we're
behind because the guy just called us on the speaker
Justin's not here. And I was like, hey, man, I'll
just go inside. I'll pay for Justin. And he goes, okay,
that was a clutch move. He was like, I just
don't know.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
I don't know if he's good for it.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
He's like, I don't know if Justin's gonna make it. Man,
I don't know where he is. Why can he not
be on time? And really, Justin still had six minutes
still our tea time, true, Like, let's be real, he
still had six minutes and Ray's man, he's pacing by
his cart and he gets his phone and he's sitting
in the cart and.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Goes, okay, there he is. There he is, And Ray
peals out.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
To the parking lot, I mean peals out, and I'm like, dude,
you got it's okay, Like relax, it's okay.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
Valid.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
I was like, there's no no need to stress that much,
but I understand, totally get it. So he gets Justin
and Justin shows up and I don't know if this
is the look now. He wears the shortest shorts I've
ever seen in my life. They're like daisy dukes van
he bro Hey. He thinks he's in a frat with
his short so short. I'm like, look at that dude

(17:41):
with the daisy dukes on. Oh I want you to
look at that dude, the daisy dukes on. Oh wow,
short shorts.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
That's apparently that's what they do on campus.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
That must be the style. And I was like, okay, all.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Right, Heny, paper Mache, you're five minutes late.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
And we get up there and I mean, after my great,
great time on the range, I hit both my drives
about fifty five yards. I'm like great, and then Ray's.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Like, where's the hole? Which way am I? I don't even
know which way I'm hitting it. Gotta be real. One
of the first times I've ever had to drive where
I didn't even know really where the hole was. I
knew it was in front of me, but there was
one to the left. It's kind of a links course.
There's also one to the right. I knew if I
hit it in the middle, i'd be fine for both,
but not a great way to start.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
And I'm like, no, no, it's right there. And then
Justin hits his way to the left and they go
over there and there's a part. The second hole is
a par three, so it's on the other side of
a forest, like major woods, and Ray is trying to
convince Justin that the green is on the other side
of the woods, like, no golf course is gonna make
you hit it through the woods.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
I get I get that. I get that.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
I was so confused, like there wasn't It's not like
there was an opening. It was solid trees all the way.
It was all the way across. There's no opening. And
Ray's like, dude, you gotta hit it over those trees
to that green. That's the green way over there, and
Justin's like, no, I think the green is Oh Ray,
He's like, no, it's not. You're such an idiot. So
Justin ames at the green that he thinks it's at

(19:11):
and he puts it on and then Ray drives over
to me and goes, Justin's an idiot, hit it at
the wrong green. I'm like, what do you mean? He
goes he hit it over here right there at that green.
Do you see he were supposed to be going through
those trees right And I'm like, why would we be going.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Through the trees.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
I still had no idea, and Ray's like, oh man,
I didn't even know. And I'm like, well, I'm hitting
for eleven right now because i hit two in the water.
So I started the round off with an eleven.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Well, and we almost got drilled by some other fandy
bros because we were looking for Justin's ball. We went
out into their fairway. The bros are throwing up their hands.
That's that's how you start the golf day. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Never they they were teeing off on number eighteen and
so you were kind of in their way.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Dude, hands up. The one guy hit it within ten
feet of us, came whizzing by. All good. We definitely
were in your fairway. Had no idea that was a hole.
I can't even find my hole. No as a drove
by hit him with the sorry guys, sorry guys, not
one word. They didn't even look at me. Man, Sorry guys.
How are exams spring break? Hey?

Speaker 2 (20:09):
Man? What's up you at college?

Speaker 1 (20:12):
You guys? Hooking up with Bonnie Blue and can Coon?

Speaker 2 (20:15):
No? Arnold was sorry guys. So anyway, it was a
bad start. Number one was bad start, brutal. Then we
go to number two. Ray's all right, just a nice
easy part three easy to see. Next hole is like
a dog let You go about two hundred yards out
and then big dog leg left. I don't even know

(20:35):
where the green is, Like, what are we doing?

Speaker 1 (20:37):
What kind of golf course is this? Never? Could you
see the flag off the tee? One of the first
that I've ever had like that. I just don't even understand.
Why would they put the hole where I can't see it?
Might as well put my gun detector down. I can't
even see the flags. What am I getting? Gun detect?
A fence? A tree?

Speaker 2 (20:54):
And so Ray hits his drive and then his second shot.
He's just like, I don't even know where to go,
and he just rips it. Of course, he hits it
in the water that's to the right, and he drives up.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
I didn't even know water was here.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
How was I supposed to know waters up here?

Speaker 1 (21:07):
At this point, I'm losing it because it was a
great hybrid, I said, great number two shot. Here we go.
I just need to lay up onto the green. Apparently
there's a miniature pond that just chills there over by
the trees. Had no idea, it's not on the scorecard.
You didn't give me a heads up. Why would a
pond just be there? Why not just pond it? That's
the design of the course. If you need a tree,

(21:28):
throw it in there. If you want to pond, throw
a river. If you want something to at the bottom
of a fairway, throw a gutter. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
And I'm like, well, you didn't ask me, man, I
would have told you there's water. Well, how was I
supposed to know? You gotta tell me these things? Okay, man,
I'm sorry, Okay.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
I will I will give justin props and me props.
We don't search for balls. If you look for it
for two seconds, you can't hold up pace of play.
We're onto the next but then starts hurt justin later
on and aro ound.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
I will say that I do like that about our
style of golf. You see people that spend fifteen twenty
minutes pits looking for a ball. We do it like
a little comb over.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
All right, No, can't find it, No, don't see it? Cool,
All right, let's move on with our lives. My ball's
hot pink. If my eyes are pretty damn good, I
don't see it instantly. I'm out.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, And I think the hot pink is the way
to go at this time of year because that white
dead grass you can't see the golf ball like when
it gets when you hit it and it gets up
there and all you see is the white You don't
know where the ball went.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Well, that leads me to my whole other take on
something else that I can talk about later. No, go ahead, Oh,
depth perception, that white grass green is really how you
see where the grass is and how you're supposed to
hit it. With the white grass. I couldn't have chunked
more in my entire life if I tried. There's no depth.
It's just it's a it's an optical illusion, honestly, right,

(22:53):
you gotta wait two months if you're trying to golf, guys,
it's got a green up because right now it's white hay,
and you better go in a pasture because that's what
it's like hitting these courses. It was it was white hay.
It was white hay.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
And then on the next so all hey, Ray rips
it to the left along the houses, but it's fine,
gets through the trees and it's a par five. All
you gotta is chip it down by the water and
Ray pulls out this forewood and dink.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
And you just watch it roll. It was going it
roll and roll, and.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
It rolled all the way to the water man all
the way. And I mean it was a great shot.
It wasn't a bad shot. It was just there was
no grass, so it just kept rolling. This really set
Ray off. I cat, what and what kind of crap
you could just rolls into the water like that? He
did hang up on.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
The very edge of the island. This is where we
had the video of it we put on the Instagram account.
I need to make I need to put those all
in a post. Oh you can live forever. Me and
Lunch both end up right on the water's edge. I
mean so stupid.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
I mean it was so stupid because we hit great
shots and it just kept rolling and rolling and roll
and there's no way to stop it. Nothing you could
have done could have stopped it.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
One small little piece of hay is what held up
my ball from going in the drink.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
Yeah, and so, and then we go to one hole
and you gotta hit uphill and the fairway. If you
hit it on the right side of the fairway, it
goes down a monster hill on the right and.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Just ravine after ledge after canyon. What are we playing
on the Master's Mount Everest edition? What is this? Was
so pissed off. He was so mad at this point.
I know you're gonna hit me with my can coon quote.
I don't remember the can coon quote. Dude, I go

(24:39):
kN kun man. There's five inches of beautiful grass lush
that you can miss with these margins. We had about
a centimeter where we can miss or you're gonna chunk something.
The ball is gonna go ten feet cankon. You don't
even have to come close to the ball. And guess what.
Everything's flat in Cancun. It's the most beautiful course ever,
you're not on a ledge, You're not on a rocky cliff.
I didn't bring my rock climbing gear. I'm trying to

(25:01):
play golf and it's forty mile an hour. Wins. You
said I was upset, dude. By whole five, we're all
wind blown. Justin looked like he was in the Sahara desert. Dude,
you look like you just got be slapped in the face.
For about an hour straight. We had the s beat
out of us, like we it was round six a
UFC fight. I don't even know if they go six,

(25:21):
they don't go six. But it was brilliant tall. The
only thing that brought Justin any life was at Blondie.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
It came around hole eight, I mean hole eight, here
comes this golf cart with his lady, two women on it,
and Ray goes, it's probably a hotty and it was
an eighty year old grandma and we're like, oh, hot, oh,
who's driving?

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Smoke show? What does Justin do? Clams up, doesn't say
a word the next just talking to her saying, Hi,
how you ladies doing you ladies want to come by?
How's it going? Yeah? Sorry? We don't hit him very straight.
Justin clam city dude. Mother of Pearl didn't say a word, Justin' said're.

Speaker 2 (25:59):
Right, dude, were you gonna talk to the hotty goes?
I got nervous, man, I got nervous.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
He clammed up, and Grandma had clammed up. She didn't
say anything either.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Oh Grandma said. I was like, oh, do you trust
this lady driving you, ma'am? And she goes yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
You gotta love how respectful they were they now that
I think of it, they stayed back twenty feet until
we were done with the hole and then followed us
to the next because they still didn't want to go
in front of us. And then we kind of gave
him the heads or.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
I said, did you guys want to play through? And
they weren't. They were just driving the course. I don't
even understand what they were doing. They were just out
for a scenic drive, maybe getting the grandma vitamin D
because she was eighty five years old. Like I mean,
she looked fragile, she looked frail, but she was out
there enjoying herself. And we were worried we're gonna kill
her with the golf ball.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
Well maybe if he got granny with you, you go
to a country club, a little bit more money, a
little bit safer at a muni one shot and Granny's dead.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Yeah, and we were looking at we were thought about
putting an Apple air tag on the golf cart so
Justin could find the hotty later. But Justin didn't even
do that. He goes, I couldn't get out of my
pocket in time. I was like, what your hand because
you were playing pool or because you're drunk?

Speaker 1 (27:00):
They are tag And we knew her life story for sure,
Devor say, her husband's work so many hours. She was
a stay at home two point two million dollar house.
That was it?

Speaker 2 (27:10):
I mean, but who was right on those houses? If
you guys were way estimating?

Speaker 1 (27:13):
Well, the lunch was so convinced that this one house
was seven hundred thousand, and we explained Tom it was
on a golf course and it had a pool and
it was massive. So Justin pins it at three million.
We look it up online it was one point five.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
Yeah, I said, we're way out in the country, so
you can get so much more.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
So you were, Yeah, you were closed.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
So much more for cheap, Like these were massive houses,
but we were not near the city, like we're way
out in the country, so you're gonna get cheaper land,
cheaper houses. You can buy a bigger house because you're
gonna have to drive an hour to work.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
But for you to say house with a pool on
a golf course seven hundred thousand is asinine.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Don't yell at me because I know real estate man,
but you didn't Redfinn Zillow or whatever. I don't my wife.
My wife looks it up all the time.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
I don't. I went home, I looked it up. I
don't like baser. Teach me how to word Zillow. I
got to improved lunch of these wrong. I'm impressed, But
I just got to say the end of the I
mean the round.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
It was terrible. We all played like crap. We played
terrible one.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
You played the best of us. Well, that's not really
saying much. It was just rough. We lost so many
for I lost so many balls. But it's it's one
of those where, dude, I couldn't have been more happy
with my hybrid shot that I drilled and almost went
in the pond. That was my most beautiful hybrid shot ever. Guys,
you got to know in your head if you make
a good shot. I made a great shot, who cares.
I'm sorry. The hills sloped in a ninety degree truckers

(28:34):
would have crashed and had to jake break it. And
there was another one where I hybrided it and there
was like a green There was a Fenway Park, there
was a green monster. There was a huge rock facade.
We took a picture there. Yeah, you could bank it
off the rocks and can come back and be a
better shot than if you hit it short. Yes, because
if you hit it shortest.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Rolling all the way back down the hill, it took
Ray about six holes to calm down after the whole
gibble three, the gribble three, someome you're the tea box.
Ray was so hyped up after that and freaking out
that we had to turn the music off for a
few holes because Ray couldn't handle it. He was like, guys,
I can't like. We gotta hurry, We gotta hurry. They're
trying to get us to go. We gotta go. Oh
my gosh, the music. Justin turned the music off, tried

(29:14):
to do some calm breathing with Ray. The round went fine.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
If anybody was over thirty five, Justin would go, oh,
I better turn down the music. Justin. It's not just
kids who like music. Everybody likes music. They don't care.
If a guy was forty just would go way turned
down the music.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
What yeah, Justin, I'm forty, bro like, I don't care,
Like I don't mind the music. It doesn't bother me
one bit. The wind is so loud that they can't
even hear the music. And most people are listening to
music on golf courses now, like they have these things
called speakers that people bring with them and they play music.
Most golf groups play music.

Speaker 1 (29:49):
Were you looking around at other golfers. Everybody's looking for balls.
Everybody was wind blown. Every guy just looked like he
got completely dominated by the wind, regardless of how girthy
he is.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Yeah, and I'm sorry that we picked that course. You said,
the course by you was all dirt. Then I tried
another course and Justin's like that one's not in good shape.
I'm like, okay, what and he goes I said, what
about this one? Oh that's fine. It was not fine.
It was a bad decision on my part.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
It was rough. It was a bad day, and you
just go back to the drawing book, honestly, And I
think about it on the patio when I'm practicing my shot.
I totally remember it now. I wasn't bending my knees
whereas I get on the course with other guys. I
believe my legs were farther apart. I was bending my
knees when I would shoot, so then I'm digging into
the ground. The worst thing you can do is chili dip.

(30:38):
You look bad in front of your friends. It feels terrible.
The ball goes about ten feet and I did that
about ten times. So to recover from that, I did,
but I took the whole hour drive home. I just
absolutely spanked myself. I was like, what were you doing?
I wouldn't have played the back nine. If you guys
weren't there, you would left. I would have left. I'd
have tried to get a refund. The wind was that bad?

(31:00):
Did it calm down? Yes, we're talking. It could have
been gusted in the forties. I mean that affects a ball.
I hate to be statistical, Sison, but you're talking ten
fifteen yards. The balls were getting blown.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
I understand, but it didn't matter the way we were
hitting it. The wind wasn't affecting it. We were hitting
it straight right into the woods, left into the woods,
chili dip.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
I mean between us, there'd be a left shot, a
right shot, and Justin would hit it down the middle
and there would be a ditch at the bottom and
he'd still hit it in the water. Dude. We were
all over the place, guys, we saw the whole course.

Speaker 2 (31:32):
I mean, I'm gonna be honest with you. Yeah, the
chili dips. The wind did not affect how far the
chili dips went. I mean, let's just be real about it.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
It just was bad.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
And I know you left that place so mad and
so pissed off, and I wanted to apologize.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
And the worst feeling is when you don't finish a
hole as a man. And I know for a fact
there was one hole Justin in particular did not finish,
oh Man, And then there was also one hole, the
eighteenth hold, the final hole. I didn't finish it, because
that means you've taken so many bad shots. I was
on hole seven eight. Our max was a snowman, which
is eight, and I didn't finish that hole. And that
is the lowest point for a man to finish a

(32:08):
hole without even your club, because you can't you're not
gonna keep hitting it. If you're already at eight, you.

Speaker 2 (32:13):
Might as well, though, But I mean, I pay your money,
you might as well finish the hole. That's one thing
I did not understand a boy. And that's another thing
I don't understand about you guys. You get to eight
strokes and you just pick up the ball like No.
I want to keep practicing because the more strokes I take,
the better I'm gonna get at practicing.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
That's why in the.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
First hole, I hit my drive fifty yards. Then I
had to lay up in front of the water, so
that's my second shot. Third shot gotta go over the
water to the green, and I went poop in the water,
drop boop into the water. That's already eight strokes right there.
Guess what I did, drop boom, put it on the green. Two,
put eleven. Don't care. I am there to play golf.

(32:52):
I am taking every single stroke. I'm not stopping at eight.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
I gotta give justin props me and him. It doesn't
matter where we play, when we play, how long I've played,
how long he probably swung a club in four months.
We always finished within one or two of each other.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
I mean, you guys are identical. It's amazing, it's pretty.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
It's you gotta find somebody that's paired up with you.
Pretty good. You beat this about like ten easily. Me.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
I mean I didn't and I played terror. I mean
I was terrible.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
It's one of those where you just got it. I
hate to blame it. It's variables, the wind, the not
green course, the hill, the hills. The ball would not
stop rolling. Now we were joking about it. We'd be like, hey,
you better go put a coin down there, and the
bow would just keep rolling.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
I mean, you would hit it and you'd watch it,
and if you didn't make it to the top of
the hill, you just watch it and then go.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
I love the one Devorceay, some forty five year old guy.
He hit it and it was a beautiful hybrid. It
was on to the green. It was right it was
he was playing the hole behind us. He was.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
It was on number fifteen. We were on sixteen and
he hit it and it hits right before the green.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
He needed another two feet instead it roll roll, roll, roll,
and the devor saying he had played the course before,
he probably had a house on the course. Love his
sense of humor. What does he do he waves to
the ball.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
Because but then it hops path. It hopped on it
was down the hill.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Wave bye bye. Hey, that's a class act. A guy
that can separate himself from the game. Say these variables
are absolute dog ass and he waves at his ball.
He was at a lower place than us the moment.
You have to wave at your ball because it's traveling
that far. Dude, I thought we were having a bad
day when your hair sticking up, my hat's wind blown.

(34:42):
Justin has had a cow lick the entire day, and
that guy is waving goodbye to his ball because it's
traveling so fast down the hill. I mean, you couldn't
stop these balls, dude. You couldn't stop them. Man.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
That's why afterwards I was like, I got a text
from Kevin. He was like, hey, we're down here on
the mumbrum. No you want to come have some drinks.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
Oh. I thought you were going to say another or
around another day. I'm like, I no, no, no, no no.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
I I looked for good Wills on the way home,
but I couldn't find any.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
Baser's like, why are you not watching golf?

Speaker 2 (35:15):
I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, I
do not say the G words.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
I was like, it just jump scary when you said ge.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
We don't say the G word.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
Okay, hear that word for another two days. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
So I definitely met up with Kevin on Demmbrium for drinks,
and then we went to Tin Roof with Kitty, his
favorite spot. He introduced us to everybody, took us in
the kitchen to introduce us to the cooks a tin Roof, yes,
And I'm like, Kitty, I don't need to meet the cooks.
He's like, no, no, you got to meet him do
there's my boys.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
And I'm like the people that make the beer burgers.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
And I'm like, hey, how's it going? How's it going?
Why am I in the kitchen? This is so weird?
All right, Hey, meet the bouncer, Meet the bouncer. Oh
I met the bouncer. Meet this bartender, Meet this bartender.
All right, man, I don't know what you want to
say to these people, but.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
At some point he's got to have some sort of
equity stock in that place. Otherwise he's just buying drinks
and he just friends with these people. That's all he's doing. Man.
All right, we'll take a break. We ran back. What
else we got. Besides, the madness is upon us.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
The madness is upon us, right, And I was so
excited yesterday at five pm Central, I was like, oh
my god, I'm gonna watch.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
The bracket reveal. You know what I mean? Here we go.

Speaker 2 (36:22):
I let the kids were just goofing off all day,
but I said, five o'clock, guys, we're turning it on.
I'm watching it, and we're gonna enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
We want that time.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
And let me how much tell you how much I
enjoyed the bracket reveal? Probably zero percent.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
It was great, dude.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
I didn't even get to hear the bracket reveal. I
barely got to watch it because two out of the
three kids were trying to kick my ass the whole time.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
I didn't get to hear it either. They were jumping
on me.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
They were kicking me, punching me in the Dad, I'm
gonna punch you in the guts, Das, I'm gonna put
you in the guts. Oh, put you in the guts.
I'm like, guys, I'm trying to watch this.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Hey, dad, did you see who's the number sixteen seed? No? Who?

Speaker 2 (37:00):
I saw the Auburn region and then I just looked
at my wife. I was like, you know what, I
should probably just watch this later. I should probably just
pay attention to my kids, watch this later and enjoy this.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
How many men are in that same boat. Parents were
playing Ticket to Ride. It's a train game, Absolutely phenomenal. Yeah,
it's really good. Too much for kids, though, you'd only
be able to play with your wife. But guys, there
was so much talking going on. I said, Bezer, how
do you record a YouTube TV? And she goes add
it to library. I said, I'll watch it a later time.
All I saw was the Auburn region.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Yeah, I saw the Auburn region, and then I barely
could hear what was going on in the rest of
the regions. Don't know what they said about every team.
Now I'll tell you to name a team.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
I'll tell you.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
But I can't believe Michigan. Well here's the weird part.
I believe Michigan finished ahead of Wisconsin in the.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
Conference, right they one that? No, no, you're not.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
There was a couple of things that stuck out to
me in the in the Big Ten tournament, was Wisconsin
the better team or the Michigan Like, who was the
higher seed? I don't know, I think Michigan was the
three and then they won the tournament, but there are
a five, and then CAA tournament and Wisconsin was a three,
and then I don't really understand.

Speaker 1 (38:08):
How really because maybe Michigan then gets put in as
an automatic.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
Bid, right, but I'm saying they should have been. If
they were if they finished the regularly season higher and
they beat them in the conference.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
Tournament, well they're the underdog for sure.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
I don't really I was looking at that. And then
just the fact that after I went on to my
rant about the SEC, it's just so stupid.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Twenty teams make it.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
Fourteen out of sixteen. It's absolutely stupid. North Carolina being
in is absolutely stupid.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Stop Vandy.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
Vandy should not be in stid and hey, Georgia, Vandy
is gonna make a rud Georgia being in so stupid.
I'm not saying they can't win games, but when you're
six and twelve in your conference, you don't deserve to
be in North Carolina. Like against top teams are like
one in eleven, get out of here, get kick rocks.

(38:56):
Just because you play hard teams beat some of them,
That's all I know.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
And then of course, let's be a real Bellichick out
on that. That's probably true.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
As the bracket starts getting unveiled, we're in the last
region and I'm like, kids, stop stop wrestling. They have
not said Kansas.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
You were still waiting. Hey, I was digging with the family.
I go, hey, they have not Dad. They haven't said
Michigan State yet. Water. Are you serious, Dad? You never know?
Now with the committee, they're like a two seed. I
was digging with it the both times.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
And I'm like, wait a minute, they have not said Kansas.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
They hadn't. They haven't said Kansas.

Speaker 3 (39:33):
Long.

Speaker 2 (39:33):
I'm like, uh, we're in the last region. And then
we go down to the bottom half, starting to the
last region, and I'm like, if Texas Oklahoma are in
in North Carolina and they're about to leave Kansas out.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Well, North Carolina could have been in Kansas. Spot.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
I was about to flip the TV off, like I
was about to break the TV. I was gonna go nuts.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
Then we get down to that seven to ten matchup,
the last next to last reveal Kansas and who are
we playing Arkansas?

Speaker 2 (40:03):
That's great, and I mean, I couldn't have been more disappointed.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Because of the dichotomy in the office the and then
can't there's multiple u Abby Pitts Arnold's girl. It is
huge because one of Eel's team's gonna get bounced first round.
And as an outsider looking in, I couldn't love it more.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
No, No, because it couldn't be more awkward. Because here's
the thing. Here's the thing. If Kansas wins, it's awkward.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
Well, and I'm a Wolves fan casually, pretty intensely, but casually,
you guys are intense fans. This couldn't be better.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
If Arkansas wins, it's awkward.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
It's gonna be real longer because Pitts, all of a sudden,
that's a sucking dude. Pitts went Chiefs. And now if
Kansas loses, dude, Pitts isn't gonna talk for a whole
six months.

Speaker 2 (40:48):
I already believe this the royal suck. Oh my god,
I already believe this Kansas team isn't very good. Like
I've already I've already come to terms with that. And
I told you I'm one loss away from being done with.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
The I haven't filled out their quadrant. I was gonna say,
where did I have them go?

Speaker 2 (41:03):
But here's the problem. Now, I need at least one
win from them. I need at least one win. I thought, Okay,
if they lose in the first round, I'll be fine,
you know what I mean, the season will be over.
Put me out of my misery. No, it'll be double
misery if they lose the first round. Even though Arkansas
shouldn't be in the tournament because they were under five
hundred in their conference, whatever, doesn't mean they can't win

(41:24):
a game or two because I think whoever wins that
game can beat Saint John's. Whoever wins that game can.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
Beat Saint John's the Johnny's.

Speaker 2 (41:31):
I understand that Johnny's the Johnny's beanie. But the Big
East is the Big East.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
Any good? No, No, Creighton real bad. Just been researching
them hard, Louiville, Auburn, It's whole thing statistical season. Creighton
is a bad team with a lot of white boys.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
So I literally have oh, cock Brenner, cock Burner, I
think cock Brenner.

Speaker 1 (41:51):
Don't if they're white. I don't learn their names because
they're not playing in the league.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
Cock Burner has been in the at Creighton for about
twelve years. He's twelve feet tall, skinny.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
Oh, they got Neilvial. Neil is deadly. He's the guy
that kind of gets the offense move. And the other
white guys, I think they don't know they're playing. I
think they think they're playing lacrosse at times.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
And so I haven't really had time to dissect the bracket.
I just when that came out, it ruined selection Sunday
a little bit from me.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
What are the odds statistical season that you guys drew
each other? Try and weight?

Speaker 2 (42:21):
They beat us a couple of years ago and then
they got trounced by Yukon.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
So does the committee just like matchups? Sometimes?

Speaker 2 (42:28):
Yes, they like matchups. They like coach versus coach, Like
what they do want to love.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
Michigan State versus Bryant. How many times has Michigan State
played Bryant?

Speaker 2 (42:37):
You know what else they do. It's like if uh,
you used to coach at school, you're you're an assistant
coach under like Rick Battino. They'll put that coach against
Rick Battino and it's like obvious, come on.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
And they showed it before. I guess I didn't realize it.
You know how many automatic bids there are? There's like
thirty automatic bids. Yeah, in college basketball, that's the sport
to play. You just got to win your crappy conference
and you make it in the Big Dance.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
But you gotta win your tournament. You can win it
all regular season, yeah, and then if you don't win
the tournament, it doesn't matter. That's why Yale's good, That's
why b Hyu is good, That's why Bryant's good. Just
what's this is in there for the first time ever?
Let's go well.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
And also, the ESPN isn't doing us any favors because
teams play now the playing games they got it half
cock eyed. I can't tell if Auburn plays Alcorn State
or Mississippi Valley Saint. It does for the UNC one
because they're gonna win that one and they got don't worry.
ESPN has it slashed and it says U n C
slash cock morehead. I'm like, uh, I guess I'm gonna

(43:37):
pick you n C slash cock. Well, you just have
to wait till they play on Tuesday, right, I get that,
but I want to see it now, like, at least
let me see that. I still don't know who Auburn plays.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
It doesn't matter if.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
They play Saint Francis of the Poor or the Redheaded
Sister of The Step Show or.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
C s i U. Edwardsville. It doesn't matter, dude, It
really doesn't matter. Okay, it does for you and C.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
Because they're gonna roll. They've been given a guess. They
are terrible. You know they're gonna make a run.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
They're terrible, And then like, now do you pick? Here's
my problem.

Speaker 1 (44:06):
I mean, they got the RJ. Barrett kid, who's the
point guard. RJ Davis. He's been on the team for
seven years old.

Speaker 2 (44:11):
He's been there forever.

Speaker 1 (44:12):
He was there for Babcom, he was there before the pandemic.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
I mean he really was. Like he was there when
Michael Jordan was there.

Speaker 1 (44:19):
They weren't so used to guys going one and done.
When a guy's on a team for five years, you're like,
get him the hell out it here.

Speaker 2 (44:25):
I mean, Dewan Harris for Kansas has been there since
Bill self was a child. I mean it was wild,
like Bill self was still in diapers. We James Natesmith
was coaching over at Kansas and freaking Dwan Harris was there.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
It's so weird. And there's a gift on the TV
that I want you to see. Have you seen it
yet with your boy Dickinson? Oh the commercial? Dude, he's
made a commercial for super Cut. I laughed so hard,
like lunch cannot get away from this guy. Then I
saw it was doing the selection show.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
They had it, but I didn't get to hear it.
I didn't get to hear it because I had kids
jumping all over me. So I still don't really know
what is what. I don't even I don't even know
what region Kansas is in. I don't know like where
they're playing. I just know they're playing Arkansas and if
they win, they play Saint John's, but I don't know where,
Like who's the number one seed in that region?

Speaker 1 (45:15):
But is it? Why do you want me to record
this the YouTube thing for this election show because I
haven't heard any of it. Thanks?

Speaker 2 (45:22):
Yeah, I mean it's crazy and we're gonna take a
break and I'm gonna tell you who's gonna win it
all right after this.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Well, thanks for the heads up.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Uh. Well, here's the thing. I haven't even really broke
it down. I haven't really been able to look at
it that in depth. And everybody has jumped off the
Auburn train because they've lost three or four. They have
lost three of four and it's time to jump off
due they can't. How can they win it all? They're
ice cold.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
The beauty of it is, they're in a pretty easy
bracket if you honestly look at it.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
Who's the number two seed in their bracket?

Speaker 1 (45:53):
I mean you're looking at the Michigan States. Okay, but
it's the A and M's. You got the Creighton's. Louisville,
that's just bad. Louisville played Duke closed, but Duke didn't
have their boy. Okay. I got a question. Here's my thing.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
How much do you trust that Cooper Flag is gonna
be able to play? Are you willing to put your
nuts on the line and say I'm taking Duke to
win it all?

Speaker 1 (46:13):
You can't take Duke to win it.

Speaker 2 (46:15):
You can't know because you can say Cooper Flag is
fine until he gets out there and he runs. Ah,
my ankle, because there is zero and I mean zero
percent chance that Duke can win a national title if
Cooper Flag's not playing.

Speaker 1 (46:29):
I put it at one percent. But Proctologist, he's been
sitting out a little bit. O Proctologist is good. Is
he corps or I don't know where he is either.
But the thing is this with Auburn they're in I
guess if you really look at it, I mean, maybe
this is the year it's all number one seats. Stop.
I know I'm kidding because it's gonna be a team
Antonia right now. It happened. B Yu's gonna make a run.

(46:49):
They put up one hundred a game. There's stuff like that.
But I will say Auburn pretty easy division. If Michigan
State can get upset set somehow, if A and M
can get upset somehow, it's gonna be a walk in
the Auburn's at the final four. Are they gonna win all? No?
But I really do think Auburn can make the final four.
And that's not saying a lot. But I saw A
and M. They were terrible against Texas, but they can
be good. Michigan State they got the guy that's Jason

(47:12):
Richardson's son, and they got some other guy named Fears.
They're not player efficiency wise, they're not great. They don't
shoot great free throws. Game before they're at fifty percent,
that's not tom Izzo. This last game they're at seventy percent,
and that is tom Izzo. So the things they've historically
been good at, they're not good at. I don't think
Michigan State makes a run.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
I there has to be one region that is just
pure chaos. There's always one region that is pure km.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
I'm telling you Auburn's region is gonna be chalk. They're
the weird ones are gonna be there's a people are
getting BYU and Yale. Confused. I looked up. Yale are terrible.
They have no efficiency players.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
Yale go to like the Final four a couple of
years ago, Go play Colonel.

Speaker 1 (47:50):
I don't care who. Hey Colgate looking over by us,
the team putting up a hundred man. Yeah, there is
Iowa State. There are thrown in there with Auburn. So
you get Iowa State. It's a lot better team. Iowa
State can easily get past Michigan State. I believe Auburn's
only trouble is Iowa State getting to the Final four.
A and M. Michigan State is nothing. But yeah, other

(48:12):
other other quadrants there's gonna be it's gonna be a mess.
There's gonna be some messy quadrants. It's not the Auburn one.
It's the duke one. It's the duke one all of
a sudden, who's just filled it out? Man? Top of mind?
Ye know what I'm saying. Like, I didn't even got
Wi Fi around here, man.

Speaker 2 (48:29):
Yeah, we don't. We don't know how to look it up.
There's nowhere to find a bracket anywhere.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
So it's it's the duke one that gets messy because
you got the by us of the World all that
weird stuff up there. I really haven't looked at the
walls bracket.

Speaker 2 (48:42):
I mean, the falls can make it, dude, every time
I picked the walls.

Speaker 1 (48:46):
Here's the problem. Ziggy's been on the team for ten years.
I get that they got Ziggy and Giddy and that
some other guy Gatey. Yeah. Yeah, so they're fine. The
walls can go ice cold outside of Ziggy Giggy. I
don't love the balls, man, it's kind of chalky. Houston.
Nobody knows anything about Houston. Yeah, here we go.

Speaker 2 (49:08):
Most pick champions twenty five percent have Duke Duke, twenty
percent have Florida, eleven percent have Auburn, eight percent Houston,
five percent Saint John's and four percent Michigan State.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
Auburn or Florida has got that Clayton kid, the very
efficient player. Twenty is a normal number. He puts up
twenty five a game efficiency wise. Uh tungy. For Wisconsin,
they can make a little bit of a run because
Tonja is so dang good. I look for those individual
players that really show up in March. The one that
Duke needs is Proctologist or Cooper Flagg, and I think

(49:45):
they're both hurt. So I'll hang up and listen on
both those guys. All right, Dukes.

Speaker 2 (49:48):
In the region, they have Arizona BYU Wisconsin Alabama.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
That's gonna be a I think that one gets real dirty.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
Oh, Houston and Tennessee are and the same region.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
I haven't looked at that one.

Speaker 2 (50:02):
They they're both, I mean, they both like to throw rocks.
They fight a lot.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Written Oh my gosh, man, that's the side of a
true fan. It's been twelve hours since its release. I
still haven't even looked at the voles quadrant. But that's okay.
That's that's hard, dude, Like you had family in town,
I had kids.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
I couldn't do it. And then I had a Fantasy
baseball draft last night. I mean I had a skip
story time the kids have been home one night and
I'm already like kids, I can't read stories. The other
night I got them Draft Baseball, and I got.

Speaker 1 (50:28):
Some sad news. Oh no, they discontinued Beat the Streak.
What what it reads? Beat the Streak Incorporated trademarked will
conclude at the end of the twenty twenty four season.

(50:51):
They now have like immaculate grid player trivia pinch hit
in some other stupid game. Oh no, Beat the Streak's over.
It was a bad beat Oh no, especially because it
was free to play.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
And we're not gonna make millions now.

Speaker 1 (51:09):
Nobody ever did. I don't get why they would end it.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
What a great promo. Why because you never had to
give them money away. And you get so many people
visiting visiting your website every day and you never had
to give that money away.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
Here, here's what I'm putting out there. We got the
Dodgers and Cubs this week starting the season, but tomorrow
it's really it's the unofficial. They start tomorrow at five am.
We'll be watching rookie Betts out.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
He's not playing, okay, he lost fifteen pounds, so it guys,
he's sick. Really yeah, he's got an illness. He's down
fifteen pounds. He will be sitting out. The Cubs Dodgers
serial guess what. They still got Showy.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
They still got Tescar, They still got Max Munsey, they
still got Freeman, They still got will Willie, will Smith,
got some other guy. They got Otani pitching someday. They
got Yaba Baba Buddha. Yeah, we tried to draft Shaw
late in the round.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
That way we could have someone to play like these
first three games, then drop them the reliever. The Cubs
like utilities second basement, so someone drafted him. So we
ended up with Michael Bush. Will put him in our lineup.
He'll probably go oh for eight and it'd be great.
Hopefully he just hits one home run to start us
off of the season. But here's my complaint. Michigan finished
in third place in the Big Ten. Michigan won the

(52:19):
Big Ten tournament, and they were a five seed in
the NCAA tournament. Wisconsin's a three seed makes no sense.
Wisconsin finished below them and below them and they are
a better seed makes no sense.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
Committee didn't expect that you were gonna fine tooth it.
The thing this is me and my friends in high
school and fantasy baseball first came out. I want to say,
we thought, what if we picked up every player for
the first game. Every player were number one in the
world for at least one instant, So we did it.
We picked up for the both pitchers, the hitters. We said,
who cares if it screws your whole season for that
one day, you're number one in the world out of

(52:52):
seventy thousand fantasy baseball team Swart move me and my
friend Matt Davis. Well, let's do a baby. Yeah yeahah,
pick up all those players, Like, screw it, who cares
about the whole season? Just do it for one day.
We get on the next day, we're like number seven thousand,
seven thousand. Other people had that same idea. Oh then
we still can't win. You can't win when you're losing.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
Man, you think of the smartest one in the room. Man,
there's always someone smarter.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
We wasted I think a twenty dollars entry on that
because then we had to trade and pick up other guys.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
Oh man, that's like like last night, man cousin Andrew,
if we mentioned someone's name, like, all right, we're gonna
look at this guy coming back around that person get picked.
He was like, and they weren't even on the screen.
They were so far down. We'd be like, all right,
we're really zeroed in on AJ Puck. Next pick AJ Puck.
I'm like, well, don't worry about it. We don't need
aj Puck. And he's like, oh my gosh, he just went.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
I'm like, yep, you're gonna want Doyle for the Rockies.
You're gonna want that. So that other kid, Tovar. But
watch out for their pictures, Freeman, Freemance. They're terrible, dude.
They're the worst pitching staff in all of baseball. They
got Jermaine Hermandez, Jermaine Marc Due. He has and pitched
in four years. He's had four acls at two NCLs.
The guy's finally pitching again, and he's like, they're number three.

(54:05):
Like what it is? A terrible bullpen. Number one hits
in baseball, Couris Field, number two, Fenway, Kaufman, Chase Field.
It's stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
Guy ally Man, it's March Madness. We'll see on Wednesday.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
But here's what I need to put out in the universe.
Go ahead, somebody's got to pick up beat the streak.
This is your unofficial start. Next week is when the
season starts. What website's gonna step up? We need somebody
to host this. Hey, sore Losers dot com go in
the whole five point six millions.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
Oh my god, someone actually wins it. We're like, uh,
Calloway did it?

Speaker 1 (54:42):
He did it? Oh man, did I see the Callaway's
Mississippi State snuck in?

Speaker 2 (54:47):
Yes, they shouldn't be in.

Speaker 1 (54:48):
It's so dumb guys.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
Joe from Sarasota gets the forty three and then he
he goes Calloway give me a pick and Callaway misses it.
Then his wife divorces him. Oh man, that would suck, dude.

Speaker 1 (55:00):
We put it on, it would be the first year
somebody gets fifty.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Then no, they would do it in fifty seven games, dude,
Like it would be like fifty seven games in the season.
We'd be liked.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
We thought we'd lose money the convention. Try having to
do a five point six million dollars pay day. What
are the chances somebody hits it? Man? Nobody said it
in fifteen years on MLB hosting it. Why don't we
host it? Or what if we do five? What if
we did? We would not know how to infrastructure. What
if we did a five point six thousand, Oh I

(55:30):
do that and still going the whole, we'd still lose it.
We'd still lose money.

Speaker 2 (55:35):
No, because we get advertisers to advertise on our site. Then,
because so many people would be going to our site.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
There's no way we know how to build it to
do that. You're right, You're right. Every day people submit
us picks and we're like keeping track of it.

Speaker 2 (55:47):
We have to go in the Excel. We had to
go answer an email every time, like all right.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
All right, Calaai pick Tovar Tovar for Calais.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
Hey, Jesse Jesse from Kentucky. He picked uh oh what
he got?

Speaker 1 (55:59):
Nolan Joe and he said Michael Bush Okay, cool Michael
from the Paris Couch. He picked Texas who even plays
there anymore? Uh al tuo ve he plays for the Astros.

Speaker 2 (56:11):
Yeah, Batter's Box has Bobby witt In, Salvador Pera.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
Okay, he's just picking Royals, got it? Okay? Kid wrote
us in and he's picking is Yastremsky still with the Giants?
I think so, hey, kid, I pick a kid by
the bay. Willie Mays.

Speaker 2 (56:28):
Oh, man, dude, I can't. I mean marsh madness. Then
I can't wait.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
It's gonna be great. Well, it could be terrible too,
They could be terrible. It's gonna be phenomenal. Wait, it's
gonna be phenomenal and terrible at the same time. I
can't wait. I told my dad, he just watches Michigan State,
who puts it in the sixties every day. I was like, Dad,
just so you know, there's a different brand of basketball.
There's team's putting up one hundred. Now just see you ready,
a lot of people score points, man, but my dad
watches Big ten. Did you see the Michigan Wisconsin score.

(56:54):
Oh god, dude, it was fifty to fifty. I go, Dad,
these teams can't. I get defense wins kind of on
the playground, but this, if you're not putting up one hundred,
I'm sorry, you're gonna get just washed away like our
balls into the ponds and rivers of that golf course.

Speaker 2 (57:10):
Oh man, oh gosh, we gotta go.

Speaker 1 (57:16):
Rory won the players. Man, Okay, we wanted this morning?
Huh Yeah, yeah I didn't. We were doing the bonehead.
