• 0:32
  Speaker 1: We were back at it. We survived another weekend, barely
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: on my end. I don't know about you, but we
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: are here to bloviate the night away, live in the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: dream and the rare and appropriate, rare and appropriate golf conversation,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: which could go one of two ways.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: This could either turn.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Off all the affiliates and we might just be talking
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: amongst each other here, or it'll create some hot talk.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Hot talk. We'll find out, so ar lead.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: This hour is from Augusta and the beautiful manicured course
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: of the final round of the ninetieth Masters on Sunday.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: There were you glued to your TV?
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Were you locked in on every single shot by the leaders? No?
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: You were not, Perhaps not so Roy McElroy getting her
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: done becoming the first golfer to win back to back
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and belly to belly Masters Championship since some guy named
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Tiger Woods before Tiger forgot how to drive back in
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: one and two, maybe he never learned how to drive,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: So that further pushes up Roy McElroy, the pride of
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: the North, the Irishman, his legacy there moving on up.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: So this comes one year after one year after completing
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the career Grand Slam by winning at Augusta National for
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Roy McElroy. So if you heard last year's Golf modelg
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: about Roy McElroy, we'll just add a little extra on,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Just add.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: A little bit extra on mclroy. Thirty six.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: He turns thirty seven coming up here in May, so
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: his birthday is right around the quarter, but thirty six
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: for right now, and he earns a Master's record four
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: point five million, not bad for a few days work
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Futson around the golf course there. His career earnings now
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: over one hundred and fourteen million for Roy McElroy. He
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: is just six point three million behind Tiger Woods Scottie Scheffler,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: who finished second one shot back at the Masters, and
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: he is third all time in career earnings. Keep in
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: mind the prizes have gone up because of the inflation.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: The value of the dollar is not what it was.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: The money back in the day was better than it
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: is now because it was worth more. You can get
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: more bang for your buck back then than you can now. Anyway,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: it's good jumping off point. Let us discuss the headline
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: here Back to back green jackets for Roy McElroy. So question,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: has Roy McElroy rewritten his entire reputation in the golf world?
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Back to back green jackets? So I've got K pop
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: cover band and Chuck.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: E Cheese and we'll.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Hear a ding and we'll put all these together and
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: we will be more bitter and twisted than ever. Is
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: what we're going to do. So A to answer the question,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: has Roy McElroy been able to rewrite his reputation in
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the Gulf world? I'm nodding my head, yes, I am
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: nodding my head yes. On this like a bobblehead that
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: is glued down to the dashboard on your cars you're
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: driving on the highway. There, I will be Benny Brightside
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: in full effect on this to a point, all right,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: to a point. I want we.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Betty Bryce sid Well. We are all brace. I was bracing.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I was texting some friends, I was watching the end
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: of the tournament. We were all bracing for the typical
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Sunday soap opera that we get at Augusta Nashville, the
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: total meltdown. And did we get the meltdown mixtape? No,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: it never dropped. We never got that mixtape of Oh
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: what a choking dog? What was he thinking?
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: I didn't have.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Instead, Rory was able to flip the script from can't close.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: That was the reputation to mister automatica well not quite,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: but mister close, close, right close, the Hollywood rewrite from
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Roy McElroy and in Georgia. Now that's it. I would
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: like to tap the brakes, tap tap. I want to
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: tap the brakes before we crown him. Now the landlord
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of the Augusta National Golf Club, which some Bleeding Heart
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: bloggers and social media influencers have determined and based on
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: these last two years, we now must announce that this
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: is his personal legground, Roy McElroy at Augustus, So two
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: green jackets. You don't all of a sudden, we don't
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: forget everything that has happened, you know, and all of
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: a sudden the Tiger Woods two point zero here, So
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: pump the brakes on that. Gotta pump the brakes on that.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Yes, he has gone though. Roy McElroy has gone K
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Pop demon hunters. He has slayed some demons of the past.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: And sitting in this chair over the years, and we
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: usually talk about the masters, and that's kind of a
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: staple of the way this stuff works, and you talk
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: about the Masters, and typically it's oh, macboy, he had it.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: McElroy had a shot and he blew it all. That
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: sixteenth hole killed him. You know, that's how that goes.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: And so forget the whole Hey, he's the landlord, he's
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: not the landlord of Augusta National. And so that's it.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Age thirty six, about to turn thirty seven, and this
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: is where he flips the light switch on at this
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: point in his career. And you wonder, where was that
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: a decade ago? Where was this version of McElroy a
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: decade ago?
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: It wasn't there.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: And so this does at this point, while it is
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: impressive what he's done the last couple of years, it
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: does feel more like a late career heater than a
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: permanent upgrade. You know what, I'm saying this is a
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: temporary situation. It's not a long term situation. So you
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: enjoyed the ride, absolutely, and history says that these things
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: they fade away, these big bursts will fade away. And
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: so it's a great chapter. It's not the full rewrite,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: so let's.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: Hold off on that.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Now. Here's Roy McElroy post tournament yapping about the level
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: of the difficulty that it.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Takes to win one of those green jackets.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: I thought it was so difficult to win last year
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: because of trying to win the monsters on the ground,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: and then this year I realized it's just really difficult
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: to win the Masters. Okay, there we go. Thank you
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: appreciated that. Didn't need you to tell me that, but
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: you told me so. I appreciate that. All right, So
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: turning the page here and keeping the putting game going,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: if you will. So the question now is Roy mcra
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: getting lots of love from the establishment golf media. There
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: is such a thing as the establishment golf media, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: so the question is why is the golf world?
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: And this happens every year.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: You predicted months, I can tell you next year the
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: same thing's gonna happen. But every year, the same storylines
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: pop up that whoever wins, well, this is it.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: They won.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: There you go, So why is golf always begging us,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: begging you, begging me to pretend that someone is the
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: second coming of Tiger Woods, the next Tiger Woods when
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: we all know, every man, woman and child knows that
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: is not the case. And so the theory is because
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: golf keeps trying to run the same old playbook. They
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: got one playbook, it worked, they reached amazing heights, and
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: so they continue to go with that playbook and the playbook. Unfortunately,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: there's only one. It's a unicorn. There's one Tiger Woods.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: That's it, and everyone knows it. Everyone knows it. So
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: what you're seeing now is a lot of the sports
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: squinting and hoping that they can convince some of the
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: dumb dumbs in the back of the room that this
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: is the same thing. It's Roy mcroy's magically turned into
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: something that he's not. But if we can just convince
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: a few people, the strattlers in the back of.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: The room will be in good shape.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Right, And this isn't tim mind, This is not about
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Rory at all. It's about being stuck the sport being
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: stuck in this permanent identity crisis which happens again.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: It's been happening for years and years and years, and
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: so they still live in this shadow.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: It's like a shadow realm from Tiger And you know,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: I guess the better naws you would be like, it's
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: like the cover band that plays the Hits at a
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: half empty, smoke filled casino off the beaten path, and
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: you're like, well, they used to be a big deal.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: That's kind of you know, as a cover band, they
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: traveled around, they were with some big bands, but now
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: they're just these little crappy casinos, and well, that what happened.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: But outside of the majors, Outside of the majors, most
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: of us treat the golf world as background noise unless
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: there's some kind of scandal, and then we'll get engaged
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: in all that. The urgency is obvious. They need a headliner, right,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: you gotta get that headliner. You sold golf as a
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: headliner sport. You got to get that. Somebody that moves
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: the needle badly. And Rory is a name. Is somebody
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: that we've heard of. He's been around for a while, right,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: been moving.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: He just doesn't move the cultural needle.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: It just kind of nudges it, just a little nudge.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: There's really no edge, there's no danger. I don't think
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: McElroy drives nearly like a daredevil as Tiger Woods does.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: There's no gravitational pull towards Roy McElroy. He's the top
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: option available right now, not the again, not the second
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: coming of anything. And so the media hypes it up
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: and they are here, we go, put a little polish
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: on it, try to sell the illusion, so you can
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: hypnotize some people. However, you cannot manufacture the it factor.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: And Roy McElroy does not have that. Mystique does not happen.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: So Tiger had it obviously for one of the all
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: time greats. If like the greatest of all time, Tiger
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Woods blah blah blah blah blah. Not driving, of course, golfing, golfing,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: And so you think Tiger was like a lightning in
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: a bottle situation, and Roy McElroy is more like a
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: flashlight now, a good flashlight, not a bad flashlight, a
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: good solid flashlight. But it's not the same as a
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: lightning strike. It's a flashlight, it's not exactly the same,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: all right. Now, last word, outside of Rory winning back
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: to back green jackets, Sergio Garcia, if you watch it,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: you know exactly where I'm going with this. So Sergio
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Garcia found himself as a trending topic. He went viral
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: during the final round of the Masters and is in
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: hot water with the people that have the stick up
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: there took us in Augusta, Georgia there after a very disheartening,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: discombobulated stretch of golf where there was some serious skullduggery
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: that took over the golfer named Sergio Garcia there in
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the final round, and he was a great the former
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: champion who's guaranteed lifetime.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Golf at Augusta because he won.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: But Sergio Garcia was given a coat of conducked violation.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Uh oh, this after he damaged the t box. What's
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: in the box, Well, my golf club's in the box,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: That's what's in the box.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: On the second hold.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: And later he snapped his driver against the cooler, snap, crackle,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: not pop.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: The thing went limp. The driver went limp.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: So he did not have he could not play with
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: that driver the rest he didn't have a driver the
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: rest of the tournament.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: That wasn't that long. But he didn't have the driver.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: So question, does the snapping of the golf club meltdown?
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Does it hurt Sergio Garcia and his legacy in the
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: golf world. I saw this being brought up by some
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: people that also have a you know.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: What up there took us?
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: So does the snapping of a golf club against the
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: cooler breaking his driver somehow create that your legacy has shifted?
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Please? This is the legacy as I am about as
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: casual a golf guy as you can get. I watched
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the Majors and I look for a scandal and that's
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: about it. And Sergio Garcia, who's in his mid forties
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: at this point, he has been around a long time
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and is the most predictable, most predictable meltdown artist at
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: a golf event. And it's not even close. He's a
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: human volcano and has a very short fuse and car
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: boom is how that goes? Now, the twenty seventeen Masters,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: you know, I think that was the year that he won.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Back in the day, one off looking more and more
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: like the Doc Rivers Championship Doc out in Milwaukee, finally
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: at least getting it paid.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: So it's not like he's just on his way. He's
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: getting paid a lot of money.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: But twenty seventy Masters and the Celtics winning with Doc
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Rivers as the coach, biggest stunners. Yeah, so one off
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: miracle it would appear for Sergio Garcia and a career
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: filled with a lot of near miss misery him and
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the very combustible emotion for sure. And so Garcia has
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: been fighting the buttoned up culture, the golf life, you know,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: the golf I play golf every once in a while.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: You go out to the golf course. You gotta have
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the right clothes, you gotta have all the clubs. You
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: can't just fus around what's wrong with you? And so
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: you go out there. And Sergia Garcia has been pushing
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: back against that. And here he is yet again on
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: camera caught having a hissy fit, a complete meltdown like
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: a toddler at Chuck E Cheese.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: And he just happened.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know how did toddler get a titanium driver,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but he did.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: And he's just breaking everything.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: He broke the claw machine and the ski ball machine,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: and he broke everything. I don't understand why at all,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: but This is not new behavior.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: We mentioned.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: This is a standard operating procedure here. It's the greatest
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: hits for Sergio Garcia. The damage greens check. You've got
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: these snap clubs, check check and the public sulking check
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: check check. So you get all three. And he is
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: a repeat offender with no off switch, which is good
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: for what I do. It dresses things up a little better.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: I'd like to address that because and honestly, it makes
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: golf more enjoyable. Now everyone can't do it. It's got
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: to be rare and appropriate. And when it is rare
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: and appropriate like this, it's great. It's a sport that
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: is essentially like going to the library watching golf. You
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: gotta be quiet all that, and at least something happened
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: that was over the top.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: It was absolutely over the top.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: And that snap driver by Sergio Garcia, there is that
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: not the most relatable moment at Augusta that has happened
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: in years.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say all time, because I don't know what.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Happened before I was around, when I was a kid
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: and I wasn't paying attention, but in the most relatable
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: moment right there in recent years, and as for the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: discipline said, the reporting said, well, Sergio Garcia is in
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: some trouble here. Code of conduct warning. Oh no, he
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: got a code of conduct warning, he got a lecture,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: he got called to the carpet Sergio Garcia. Does that
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: mean in the back of butler cabin? Do they have
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: like a jail on the back there where they sent
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Sergio Garcia to golf jail?
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: What would golf jail be like anyway? Who knows?
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: So the discipline not going to be the discipline. You
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: think they're going to ban Sergio Garcia from the Masters
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: next year, No, they're not. It's the Master's version of
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: a parking ticket. You got a code of conduct warning.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: It's like a parking ticket and nothing changes. I don't
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: how many more years Sergio Garcia is going to be golfing.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: He's in his mid forties, but assuming he continues a
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: couple of years here, we anticipate that they'll have more
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: of these things, and we'll be here to document all
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: of them.

  Speaker 1: the sweatshop that does not stop all night long, and
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: our lead this hour, our in depth team coverage continues
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: and half els scandal Man, what we had some updates
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about? The Patriots. Yeah, They're
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: always involved in these scandals. So the drama Arama. Things
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: getting cranked up regarding the new England head coach and
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the NFL insider their tamboo get together in Sodona, Arizona
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: at the adults only hotel, adults only, they will get away.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Little bubble, bubble, bubble things bubbling up in this regard.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: So if you've not heard the latest from the Greatest Year,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: perhaps not. We have learned that the vice president of
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Player Personnel, Elliott Wolf, another NEPO baby.
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: His dad was a big.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: Shot in the NFL years ago, and so now he's
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: got to get a job in the NFL. So Elliot Wolf,
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: the NEPO kid, will conduct the Patriots pre draft suore
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: their news conference, which will be taking place later today.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel, who was out front and center last year,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: has decided no moss. He's tossing in the sponge.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: I'm out boys, see you letters, you losers. I'm not
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: doing that. Rabel is not expected to attend or certainly
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: address reporters until after the draft. So that's it and
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: how are we supposed to believe? How are we supposed
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: to believe that this is anything other than Mike Rabel
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: ducking questions he knows he does not want to answer.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: So my observations, I've got the secret Service, I've got
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: secret service, the clock shop, and combo meal, and we
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are going.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: To shuffle the deck, is what we're going to do.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: We're gonna shuffle the deck.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: So number one, Number one number. So the answer the
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: believability test. To answer the believability test, you can't. You
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: cannot believe the story that is coming out from the
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: patriots and all that stuff. The only answer, the only
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: acimpable answer, is that Mike Rabel is going to the hills.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: He's running off to the hills, right. Vrabel spiked the
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: page six story right away about the canoodling photographs, which
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: now more and more looked like they were taking by
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: a private investigator. But nonetheless, Mike Vrabel shot the whole
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: thing down. Nothing here, and the young lady also shot
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: it down, So there's nothing going on. It looks like
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: hanky panky. It's not hanky panky. It looks like hanky panky.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Is not It's just some old fashioned canodling between a
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: couple married people. That's all it is. So Diana Russini
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: the reporter, what a inside reporter she is.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: It's all harmless.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: So if it's all harmless, then what's the problem instead,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel, if this report is accurate, believe it to be.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel has gone full hide and seek. Now you
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: see me, now, you don't abra cadabra. When it comes
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: to accountability and again off in the woods. He ran
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: up to the woods and that's it. While the Patriots
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: are currently building a big smoke machine and they're gonna
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be a big smoke machine and it's gonna
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: block out anything about this story. Uh.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: And I guarantee that we're not.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Gonna answer any questions about the story of Mike Rabel
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: and Diana Russini. We're here to talk about the draft. Well,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: nobody cares about that, Yamarron. We care about this. This
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: is interesting, Gus anyway. Uh. So this is a guy
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: who Mike Rabel, and tell me what I'm wrong with this.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel has always been like tough guy, guy right,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: tough machismo man, Mike Rabel, And now he's a vapor
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: trail because there's gonna be some tough questions. He don't
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: want answer the tough question. So I legally a lawyer
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: would say, hey, stay because it's likely if this happened
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: the way it looks like it happened, they'll probably be
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: a lawsuit. There'll be a lawsuit, and so he's better
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: off not speaking. So I understand legal counsel telling you
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: not to speak. I get that However, come on, they're
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: rolling out Elliott Wolf, the Patriots, Elliot Wolf like he's
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: a Secret Service officer jumping in front of the bullet,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: taking one for the boss.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: Come on, deflect, absorb.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Stall, talk about these players nobody cares about for the
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: draft because they can't really answer those questions either, because
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: the whole point of the draft is to not give
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: a straight answer. So it's gonna be like, well, we're
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: here to draft the best player available. Oh really, Okay,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: that means as good as all the rest. Yes, it
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: does sounds good, why not? But it is not the
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: greatest look. It's a terrible look for variable and art.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: The louder the silence here than the worst it sounds.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: And if you only show up for softballs, if you
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: only show up to get in the hot tub with
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the reporters in Sedona.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: That's not the job.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Like the job, you actually have to ask questions you're
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: not of people you're not sleeping with, or answer questions
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: of people you're not sleeping So it is a problem.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: It is a problem there, So we'll keep an eye
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: on that.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: And I know Vrabel would much rather be inside of
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: hot tub with reporters than answering questions, But unfortunately they
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: don't have hot tubs there, so you're you're out of lock,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: all right now, Page two. As for the insider in
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: this ongoing scandal coverage around the clock here on the
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Ben Maler Sewan Fox Sports Radio around the clock scandal coverage.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: So as for the inside of the Athletic change their
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: tune over the weekend. Things that make you go, hmmm,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: I wonder why, I wonder why.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: They change their tune.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: What happened after initially dismissing the photographs that were in
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: the New York Post, Now they're saying that the Athletic
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: is investigating the conduct of their senior NFL reporter, Diana Russini,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: after the publication of said photograph showing them holding hands,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: hugging and in a hot tub. Yeah, right there with
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel side by side, monol mono, All right. Question,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: what stands out to you? What stands out to you
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: about the Athletics singing a much different song about NFL
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: insider Diana Russini and her conduct at that paywall publication.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: So the biggest tell here is the volume changed a lot.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: The volume changed right fast. The Athletic did not just
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: initially defend Russini. They circled the wagons like they were
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: at the Alamo, and we know how that ended.
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: It did not end well. The Alamo did not end
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: well anyway.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: The executive director, Steve Ginsburg, I believe he's the guy's name.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: He jumped right out in front. Nothing to see here,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: everything's going called the photos lacking context and framing it
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: as harmless public interaction. Yeah, okay, translation, nothing again to
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: see here. Keep it moving now, please move on now,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: move on now, keep moving.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: What do you why you're not moving?
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Shame on you. However, then the tone shifted. So the
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: tone did shift here, and this went from a controlled burn.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: You got to clear out the rubbish, clear out the
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: rubbish now, so everything's good, so you don't have a
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: big fire. So it went from a controlled burn to
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: a very smoky wildfire, real quick, real quick from them.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: And once it jumped the firewall and reached the higher
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: ups of the Old Gray Lady the New York Times,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: the calculus changed, and so now it's no longer just
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: about one reporter. It's about the institutional credibility. Big phrase,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: institutional credibility online Now the biggest revelation for me over
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: the weekend as I clicked, refreshed and monitor this story
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: so you would not have to is the clock shop.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: As a friend of mine who worked as a senior
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: editor a major newspaper in America and one of my
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: good friends who worked back when people read newspapers and
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: back in the heyday of journalism, as he referred to me,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: and I didn't see this part of the story. The
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: main reason Diana Russini's in trouble is at the very
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: end it's a clock shop, meaning the doomsday clock. You see,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Diana Russini's contract expires this summer. It is now April.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Summer is right around the corner, all right, So you
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: can do the math on this. That's not just a
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: kwinkie dink. That is a major problem if you're looking
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: for a new contract and you've embarrassed the New York
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Times that walks around like they have a stick up
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: there took us because they're so proud of the New
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: York Times and all that and the elitist way they approaching.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: So if you're upsetting that and ruining their image, you
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: got problems. So when the PR hits, When the PR hits,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: outweigh the production. These major companies, trust me, I work
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: for one. These major companies do not hesitate. They get
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: rid of your ass. Your ass is grass. You're not
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: worth it. Right to paraphrase our friends over at Sun Kissed,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: the juice ain't worth the squeeze. The juice ain't worth
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: the squeeze, meaning whatever you think of Diana Roussini as
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: a I don't know the woman. Everyone around here who's
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: interviewed he says she's wonderful, it's a great woman. Good
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: for her. I don't know anything about her other than
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: what I've seen online on that. But it's not like
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: she's like the greatest NFL reportable all times. She's a
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: bunch of people. They'll do the same stuff. She's very
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: good at getting scoops from Mike Rabel. I think we
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: know why. But nonetheless, so it's not necessarily just at her.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: But if your contracts up and it's not like you're
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: you're not secretariat head and shoulders above of everyone else,
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: and you're so much better, you got to keep the person.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: It's not that so when this happens, you cut bait
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: and you wash your hands and move on, and some
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: other Schmoe will come in there and be your NFL insider,
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: and no one will know the difference. And the only
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: people that worry about who gets the story first are insiders.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: The people that actually consume the content. They don't even
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: know where this stuff comes from.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: They don't care. Our final word to the NFL Draft,
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: we go, that's right.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: The NFL Draft, which is a couple weeks away, less
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: than a couple weeks away, and there's.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: A story that I saw.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: It hasn't gotten a lot of play yet. I wanted
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: to discuss it with you because it really validates a
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: hot take that I've had a classic hot take, and
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: we love hot take validation. We do.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: We do so.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: The NFL draft's coming up soon, and a report over
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: the weekend painted a much different picture of the actual
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: meat and potatoes of the NFL Draft regarding the popularity
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: of set ement. Now, I'm not gonna seit he and
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: say the draft's not popular. Obviously, it gets decent ratings
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: and people like to talk about it on social media,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: and the bots love it and the algorithm loves it
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: all stuff. But in terms of actual attending the draft,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: I can think about twenty five million things I would
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: rather do than sit there at the draft now watching
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: it on TV. Fine, first, like five to ten picks, Okay,
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: after that, eh, I don't know about it.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: So this report claimed the drafts in Pittsburgh this year.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Did you see this?
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: No?
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, So they're claiming now that we're told that forty
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: percent of hotel rooms in the greater Pittsburgh area are
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: still available for NFL Draft weekend. Forty percent, almost half
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: of the hotel rooms less than two weeks out from
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six NFL Draft, and the number of
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: people at the draft each year based on the reporting
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: out of Pittsburgh.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Is greatly exaggerated.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: All right, question, how can the NFL brag about record
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: crowds every year at the NFL Draft when almost half
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: the hotel rooms are still empty and we're just a
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks await less than that from the twenty
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: twenty six edition. So this one is not that hard.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: It's rather simple here. This is the league's favorite parlor trick.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: They love it. It always gets a wow when they
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: use this parlor trick. It's vibes over very viable facts.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: You keep everything kind of could be like this might
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: not be like that. It's the NFL has long decorated
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: these events.
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: It's like a combo meal.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: It's fuzzy math and a side of creative accounting, and
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: then the draft is like a science project for the
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: NFL executives. And we actually talked about as funny as
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: came off, because I had Terry from England who's a
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: big American sportsman. He grew up in England and not
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: in London out and where the real people in London lived,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: or the real people in England lived in the UK,
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: and so Terry's been listening to me for a long
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: time since I think twenty seventeen, and he's a big
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: NFL fan, likes American sports. And Terry pointed out that
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the NFL, it's just a curiosity for people in Europe.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Like the NFL wants you to believe that they're die
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: hard fans. They're not that many. They're not that many.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: But one of the shows we did years ago, the
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: NFL played a game in London and they claimed they
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: had this I forget exactly what the number was. I'd
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: have to go back and check my nose, but it
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: was millions and millions of people that came to this
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: NFL FanFest thing in London, which just wasn't true. It
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: was ridiculous that they claimed it, but it got put
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: into news stories and bounced all over the place and
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: all that stuff and the draft. As we said, it's
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: like a science project for these guys. The NFL has
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: been cooking the books. They modeled themselves after Bernie made off.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: When it comes to attendance, as long as I've been alive,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: as long as I've been alive, and they literally count,
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: I'm convinced in my opinion, they count anyone with a
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: pulse who's within a five block radius. I'm talking people
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: having to walk their dog so the dog can take
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: a pee out on the street. They count them, right.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: They count rubberneckers who are looking, they're stuck driving, they
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: look over, they count they're also there. A guy delivering
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: a hot dog for Uber Eats. That guy counts as
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: being at the NFL event. They're part of the crowd.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: That's it. So nobody audits it, nobody goes back, Okay,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: how many people are actually here? There's no way to
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: really properly count. The story that I saw said the
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: NFL counts if one person goes to the draft all weekend,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: so Thursday, Friday, Saturday in Pittsburgh, and they count as
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: three people. So it's the three for one deal, right,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: three for one, not by one get one. It's by
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: one get two if you go to every day. So
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: it's not like they don't. They don't count differently, and
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: so that messes things up and it looks good usually
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: on TV the NFL Draft, there's ways you can position
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: cameras to make things look bigger than they are. We
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: all know the tricks of the trade and all that stuff,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: and it looks like woodstock the NFL Draft the last
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: couple of years with the different camera angles that they have,
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: and that's really all they care about. They just want
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: the shot. They want the shot on TV because it
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: looks good. They play that on social media and all that.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: It's sports marketing one oh one. You sell the sizzle,
• 33:35
