Inside the episode
139 passagesWhat do you want to delay it? I know Mike's worried Mike's like, oh, the people are going to want this every day. No, we could never do this every day. No, no way. We got a poop in the morning. Yeah, I haven't pooped. I haven't eaten breakfast. That's a good start to this show. No, I mean, I have, this is the last day of my life, the last moment of my life where I am a person that didn't hit a hole in one. That's all I'm, I've been telling you that I can hit a hole in one for.
what feels like a decade. Yeah, okay. And in a few hours. Here's what's going on. I will be a person that's it won. It started on the spitballers, which if you haven't listened, Spitballers podcast, where the idea that Andy could definitely hit a hole in one. If he was given a day on one hole, he could absolutely sink a hole in one. Facts? I mean, with supreme confidence. What's facts that you said you could do it? That's right. So far we are.
Factually accurate. And so we have put this to, or we're about to put this to the test. We have booked a hole on a golf course. Yeah. Till 10 p.m. tonight. What did I say? Only God can stop it. And what's happening right now? It is pouring on the course at the moment. Otherwise I would. It's going to pass. By the time we get there, I think the weather will be nice. And we will, Mike and I will be enjoying ourselves. Yes. And you will be.
You won't enjoy yourself for that long. I'm going to make my prediction. Oh, okay. I'm going to, I have 10 hours, right? Yes. About 10 hours. Write down, how long you think it's going to take. 10 to 10. That's 12 hours. 12 hours to hit a whole one. Jason, I want you to write down your prediction of how long it takes them to do it. Don't just put 12 down. I'm not. I swear. Four hours and seven minutes. I'll hit a whole one.
I wrote never. I put 77 hours. 77 hours of straight hitting, not just like from now and then you sleep during it. You need. I mean, I do, there is some mathematical. I do have some odds here. Like I did the analysis this week and we've got Chris Cash, our writer, he's a he's a numbers guy. Yeah. He thought it was possible. Now the odds of it. I think what did he give you? I think probably about way too high. Way too high. It was like 30% of something like that. That's nonsense. Here's the thing that people don't understand.
When you are a regular average golfer, which is exactly what I am. The average handicap is 15. I'm like a 15, 16. Oh, man. Are you kidding me? Yeah, I know, Jason. I'm so sorry to tell you. I am so above average. I am so above average. You are 15 is a dream. You're in the gifted program. But the odds on any random part three for an average golfer is one in 12,500.
Okay. Per shot. Can you hit 12,500 shots today? No, the problem is, is that number comes from just a random shot on a random hole. I'm going to get to apply this incredible brain to the slopes and the altitudes and I get to hit it over and over again. You're going to dial it in. I'm going to dial it in quite easily. Now, I'm not going to mention the fact that I was on a driving range the other day and got pretty sore in about 20 minutes. I'm going to be honest. You don't have to. I'm looking. I know. I am looking forward.
to finding out if I'm rooting for you or not. Because I'm like right now, I'm not sure if I want you to make it or not. Oh, because you know how I'll be. Really? I definitely want him to make it. Oh, you do? Yes, of course I want it. I want my friends to succeed. Thank you. Thank you. I want it to happen. But it's not possible. The point is what we said. The reason this is happening is we would like to sprout wings and fly far far away. We said he couldn't do it. Yeah, that's where I'm saying like, you know, you're rooting against yourself in a way.
One of our writers ordered in and said, after three hours, good luck grabbing the club. Yep. Not worried. Okay. I have a right-handed glove. I do need breakfast though before. If you want to double glove, I got you. I don't want to be on camera, double gloving. Okay. Say that after 200 swings. What's wrong with the double gloving? Nothing. Someone just won the PJ tour with double gloves. Okay. And I get made fun of. What's...
I don't why. It's just because it's not fashionable. You only have a left-handed glove. Oh. Okay. You did switch back to only one glove. And I regretted it. Yeah, but why did you do it? I did it because I thought I was hitting better with one glove. Oh, okay. But you were hitting just as bad. Just as bad. Maybe worse. The second glove was helping. Did I just get turned into a blue? Like is the... You sure did. Hold on. Go back to that camera. We fixed it. Oh. I was kind of. No. Did you? No. It's still off. Oh, yeah.
Cool. Well, go main camp. This is just future. Okay. This is a fantasy football podcast. It is not a golf podcast. We have our Monday Punday reactions to the weekend. The injury list was insane to go into the weekend. We have a Marvin Harrison Jr. trade that broke in the weirdest way possible. So much to get to. We've got news. We've got studs and duds. And we're doing it all right now. Starting with your reactions to the weekend with a little elegant Monday Punday. I haven't even seen all of these this morning because it's been a crazy morning. But let's start with.
Isaiah, definitely. Not likely. Definitely. Start of the week. Or Parker, Washington. I like that. I'm taking mine. Christian Hotson. Oh, and I'm taking mine, Matthew. Golden Ticket. How about Yalen Warren? Okay. There's a lot of Yays in here. Malik Yerbers? Garrett Thrillson. Mike Evans Almighty. Boy, he is the weirdest player.
If he started him, he's great, but you never know. Oh, no. His body is deteriorating. I know. Great May. And Jaden manuals, of course. But they weren't all good. We knew this one was coming. Tyler, yuck. Tyler, what the shuck. That's the one. How about Won't Shipley? No, and Romeo sobs. RJ Hardley. No, Colston Bustland. How about Scam, Scataboo? Yeah, we got...
Got nothing, Taylor. Chase let down. We're losing the names here. Um, Omarian Hamp done. Oh, Jalen fraud, along with his quarterback with Boo Knicks. Yeah. I like that Justin Herbert cannot be on this list anymore. He, no, because it's not, there's nothing.
It is what it is. He is what it is. Because when I'm thinking about Bo Nix, I'm like, man, he is as bad as Justin Herbert has been. Justin Herbert, but that's assumed. He's, man, that division, seriously. It's unstoppable. Football is freaking hilarious. Because you have, look, the AFC West was going to be, like, that is a premier division, right?
Are you, you're saying the way that the Broncos are playing? Yeah, well, I'm saying like, yeah, the Broncos are like, the victorious Broncos, the Chargers, you're like, okay, chiefs. Yeah, chiefs are great. Like saying like, it's a surprise. And then you got the AFC North where I believe every team is above 500. Yeah. They, I mean, yeah. It is, it is. And then you got the NFC East. Oh. Where all four teams played two played each other, no one won. Yeah. No one won. That's incredible. The end?
of that game. Now, I wasn't here with you guys. We've got to talk about it. I was watching that with my son. I, Cam Skadaboo fumbles a play you just can't fumble. He would have been the story. First of all, rewind a little bit. Yeah, you've got to go back even further. Because Cam Scadaboo was not being used. That dude was banned. That was a game where it was like, if you had been using him, you'd be winning this game. Why has he not been on the field? Then when push comes to shove, they battle back in, they're in the game and they're like, okay, let's.
Let's put the ball in Cam's hands. He dominates. He starts, I mean, he was the reason they got into field goal range to win that game. And then he fumbled. It was like, oh, come on. He fumbles. And then people in charge of this Washington franchise that is worth, I don't know how many billion dollars, they don't understand how to manage the end. They don't understand how a clock, a clock, if it's running, it just keeps moving.
But there's ways to stop it that are very defined in the rules. And they had no idea how to handle this. So what happened real quick? If you didn't listen, this game went to overtime in part because Cam Scadaboo fumbled and they couldn't. Well, that was in the overtime. Yeah, that was in the overtime. Yes, before. The Giants should have won. At that point, Washington should have won. Washington was in easy field goal range. Yes.
They had a minute on the clock, no timeouts, but there's a minute. They were on a play. They've got 40 seconds on the game. I mean, this. The world is in their hands to just basically kick a field goal. Just clock it. I mean, listen. Game time ran out. Yeah, and it ran out. So they're just kind of laxidical in the huddle, 20 seconds on the clock, 17.
16, 15. They run a play. Jaden Daniels scrambles and just goes down. And then gets up with three seconds left. So the clock runs when you go down. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Didn't throw the ball away. Now listen, Dan Quinn, that was awful. You at least stood in front of a podium and took full responsibility. You fell down for your team. You took all arrows. You didn't blame your quarterback. You deserve the arrows, but you took them. You stood, 100%. Are you telling me that Lamar Jackson doesn't look at the clock? And Lamar Jackson doesn't.
know what's going on in the game? Jayden Daniels took no responsibility and he says it starts at the top down. He's got to be. Jane Daniels just kept saying I got to be better. Jane Daniels so you messed up. I got to be better. No, but he was like we got to be better. I mean, honest to goodness, I feel like his press conference was absolute nonsense. It was brutal. He uttered the line like it starts with me or whatever. He said that. That was the most throwaway nonsense.
Like his whole attitude that entire time was skirting blame. It's top, like it's others. A tie was appropriate in that game. Both teams should have won and couldn't do it on normal 99% chances to do it. So what should have happened, obviously, he should have thrown the ball away. If you watch the wide receivers, the four wide receivers on the field. Well, yes, that's what the play call should have been. Play call should have just been spike the ball, kick the field goal. You don't have to worry about time on the clock. This is over time. You don't need to get closer. You should take this kick.
You just kicked the ball. So Dan Quinn failed because it should have been, spiked the ball, take the field goal. But the call came in to run the clock down for no reason. It's overtime. And then he didn't throw the ball away. It was just crazy. And then he didn't throw the ball away. It was just like amateur hour. Like he took a knee. Yeah. Which, look, it made sense to me when I was watching because I assumed they had a time out. That was the first half.
I know, but I was saying, it's Washington again. It does happen. Yeah. What is wrong with this? I was with Washington. All right. Let's get into the news. News and notes from around the league. Okay. We've got tons of it. Starting with the trade herd around the world with no destination. Boy, that didn't work out, did it? No, it's working right now. He's gone. He's gone. You played that drop when we drafted him and you're playing it when he leaves. The Cardinals.
Meeting changes over time. Has it been finalized yet this morning? I believe so. Because it was reported yesterday Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Texans. Cardinals do get. We didn't think it was possible. Dude. But they get a 2027 second and a sixth round pick. Texas get Marvin a seventh. It was rumored to be a 28 second from some team. Because this was the weirdest trade environment of all time where it's like, there's a trade. Yeah, we can't tell you. He's definitely traded. Where is it going? I think I know what happened.
It seems like it's obvious. And maybe you know something else. It seems like the taxes are like, we're going to do this if we win. Yes. It's the Titans. If they beat the Titans. Like so we're going to win. But let's hold off just in case. Because if we go 0 and 5. Yeah. This was. So Marv is gone. And the Cardinals, look, at some point, this is, let's translate this into fantasy football. At some point in time, we do we do dynasty drafts, rookie drafts all the time.
and you make a pick and you make a selection like Royce Freeman, Mike. And you make a pick like that. Third round stud. And everybody, look, draft capital is proportionate to potential. That is the way the NFL and fantasy players are going to look at it. And you will always, for a time being, believe that a player.
is going to have the potential to fulfill their draft capital. Corey Davis will have the potential to fulfill his draft capital. It took in five years. Blackman didn't. But you basically, that's baked into Marv. Now, you need one team after three and a half years to believe that they're the fix for the player that's not separating, not getting targets, not delivering, not catching the football. Looking lazy. Looking lazy, not caring. Now,
