Jim Nantz is the best broadcaster to ever call golf on television

I'd rather listen to [Jim Nantz] do golf than listen to myself do golf. ... I think he's the best to ever call golf on TV in my lifetime, or at least in my adulthood. And I wanted to hear him do golf at Pebble Beach. ... I'd rather fall asleep to him calling golf while I lay on the couch than anybody else.

This is a subjective opinion on broadcasting quality.

Brooks Koepka's primary focus for 2019 is winning the Open Championship.

He said to us that he's really focusing on the Open Championship this year, the British Open. That's the one he doesn't have. He really, really wants that one. ... He was looking ahead to whatever [course] they're going to be on in a couple of months.

Brooks Koepka did not win the 2019 Open Championship, finishing T4 (Shane Lowry won).

The 2019 U.S. Open course at Pebble Beach was a disappointment

The course fucking sucked. A bit of a disappointment for the guys that root for the course out there. ... Overall, kind of a disappointing showing from the course. I feel like it's got to drop a little bit in the world rankings.

The course played significantly easier than expected, with a record low winning score for Pebble Beach US Opens, supporting PFT's claim that it 'underperformed' as a challenge.

Brooks Koepka was screwed by the fact that the U.S. Open was moving too slow.

Brooks got screwed by the fact that everything was moving too slow. And we know Brooks doesn't like to play slow. He likes to play fast. ... He's an adrenaline guy. So the second you slow him down, it was like putting in a relief pitcher. They kind of took the rhythm out of Brooks Koepka.

This is a subjective interpretation of Koepka's performance based on the pace of the final round.

The only reason celebrities agreed to write chapters for the PMT book is out of fear they would be turned on by the hosts

The answer to your question is why would any of these people agree to do any of this? 'Cause we don't want you two pricks to turn on us... We're trying to... I'm keeping you close so I can do a little bit of work to keep you guys on my side.

While Buck is being humorous, many guests have alluded to the power of the PMT fan base and the benefit of being 'in on the joke.'

Ferdinand Magellan and Al Michaels are the only two 'map guys' in human history.

Al Michaels. That's that... he's brilliant at knowing he's a map guy. And, maybe that's good for the brain. I hope that I'm half as good as Al Michaels when I'm at that stage of my career... but I've never heard of a map guy other than maybe Magellan and Al Michaels. I was like, sit around studying maps? I just, no, that's why Netflix was created.

A comedic exaggeration about Al Michaels' geography skills.
