Collin Morikawa on The Open, Giannis’s Masterpiece, and Bezos in Space
The Milwaukee Bucks are finally NBA champions, and we just witnessed a performance for the ages. Big Cat and PFT were in awe of Giannis Antetokounmpo, who didn't just win a title; he put up 50 points in a clincher while shooting 17-of-19 from the free-throw line. It was the kind of game that forces you to re-evaluate everything you thought you knew about the league hierarchy.
Big CatGiannis Antetokounmpo's Game 6 performance was one of the top three or four of all time, better than Michael Jordan or LeBron James.
I think it was one of the top three or four Game 6 performances of all time... Michael Jordan would be one. The other would be LeBron James against the San Antonio Spurs... and it [Giannis's performance] was better than both of those. It was 50 points in a clincher.
While Chris Paul came up short yet again, the story was all about the Greek Freak staying in a small market and winning it his way. Big Cat pointed out that the Bucks winning is the perfect antithesis to the super-team era, and PFT is ready to officially change the terminology of the league’s power structure.
PFT CommenterThe crown of the NBA has been passed from LeBron James to Giannis Antetokounmpo.
I think the torch discussion... I feel like that's not even the correct discussion to have. I feel like we should have a crown discussion. I think the crown is now [Giannis's]. I think that it's no longer King James. I think it's King Giannis.
There was also plenty of talk about how this title affects the legacy of a certain guy in Los Angeles. Giannis joining the exclusive club of players with multiple MVPs, a Defensive Player of the Year, and a Finals MVP puts him in a category that even King James hasn't fully conquered.
Big CatThe fact that Michael Jordan and Giannis Antetokounmpo are the only players to win MVP, DPOY, and Finals MVP will drive LeBron James crazy.
Michael Jordan [is] the only player to win an MVP, DPOY, and Finals MVP and it's just him and Jordan. Like that's got to drive LeBron [James] crazy.
Hot Seat, Cool Throne
Hot Seat/Cool Throne featured a heavy dose of Jeff Bezos and his "cock rocket." Big Cat wasn't impressed by the billionaire playing just the tip with the atmosphere, especially since Bezos immediately donned a cowboy hat upon landing.
Big CatJeff Bezos's space flight was just a midlife crisis to overcompensate for having a small penis.
Jeff Bezos, he built a penis rocket and then played just the tip with space. He couldn't in his wildest dreams insert his big penis rocket into space... you got a tiny dick, bro. That's a big time midlife crisis overcompensating here.
Between roasting space travel and discussing the Polish Olympic swimming team’s administrative nightmare, the guys got excited about the return of cinema. Hank is fully bought into the upcoming movie slate, specifically the return of Johnny Knoxville and the crew.
HankJackass Forever will be the start of a massive streak of movie hits.
Jackass Forever, the trailer came out... and I feel like it's just going to be hit after hit after hit after hit for the next few months because there's so much of a backlog [from the pandemic].
Big Cat doubled down on the Jackass hype, claiming it represents the pinnacle of human achievement in film.
Big CatThe Jackass movies are the perfect comedy and it is impossible to make a funnier film.
The jackass movies are the perfect comedy. They really are. I don't think that you can actually get funnier. The only way you can make a funnier movie than jackass is to make another jackass sequel.
On the football front, things are looking bleak for the Houston Texans. Between the Deshaun Watson drama and a roster that looks like a preseason squad, Big Cat is wondering if the franchise will even show up for Week 1.
Big CatThe Houston Texans might not even play the upcoming NFL season.
I wouldn't be shocked if the Texans were like, we're not doing this season... we might've reported that the Texans won't play the season like three months ago. It's exclusive. They're going to stink a lot.
Collin Morikawa Joins the Show
Fresh off his victory at Royal St George's, Champion Golfer of the Year Collin Morikawa joined the show. He cleared up the rumors about flying commercial with the Claret Jug, confirming he had to stash one of the most prestigious trophies in sports in an overhead bin.
Collin shared the bizarre story of a spectator placing a remote-controlled fart machine at the 18th tee box during his final round. While most would crumble, Collin just stepped out, waited for the marshal to find the device in the tall grass, and went back to work. He also discussed his upcoming trip to Tokyo, where a certain permanent souvenir might be on the table if he brings home the hardware.
Collin MorikawaI will get an Olympic rings tattoo if I win the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
If I win, I'll think about it and go on from there... [Big Cat: outsource it for you, where our listeners decide] That's where I may get the tattoo if I win gold. Yes, there's a lot of stipulations to this.
Guys on Chicks and Billy's Recap
Wrapping up with Guys on Chicks, the guys tackled the age-old question of how much beer is required for a successful beach day. Big Cat provided some vital health and safety advice regarding the relationship between pale lagers and core body temperature.
Big CatA twenty-four pack of beer is the appropriate amount for a beach day because it helps regulate your body temperature.
Twenty-four is a pretty good number because you're hot out there... regulating your body temperature. You could actually put yourself in danger if you don't drink enough.
Finally, the show touched on the potential return of 3D sports broadcasts and Billy provided a quick update on Dabo Swinney’s fear of a 12-team playoff.
Billy FootballDabo Swinney only opposes a 12-team playoff because he is afraid of Clemson being upset.
Dabo doesn't think there are 12 teams good enough for an expanded college football playoff. That was another quote... He just doesn't want to have the chance of being upset, but yeah, and he's got his spot locked up forever.
It turns out 50 points and some free Taco Bell is the perfect recipe for a legendary Wednesday.
