Golfers overthink the 12th hole at Augusta National way too much and should just attack the pin if the shot fits them.
I a hundred percent agree [people overthink it]. Last year I got to that hole... I just remember I was like, what am I so afraid of? Like, if anything fits me, it's this. So I was like, just aim a couple steps left of it and hit the fucking nine iron and I did it... Unless I got a five shot lead, I'm playing it like that. Because it is like you're sometimes too passive.

View episodeMichigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.
Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.
Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot
They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.
Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.
I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

View profileThe fescue at Shinnecock was disappointing and didn't provide enough of a penalty for bad shots
My complaint this week as a fan of carnage, I didn't think the Fescue did anything. ... You're teasing us. Like I want you, you're telling me this is gonna be hard. I'm excited for like the not top 10 play. ... And it just felt like everybody was just hitting it in there and like a 12, everyone's just whacking it up on the green. So I miss that.
Golf course bunkers should have wider teeth on the rakes to make them real penalties
Jack Nicklaus did it at his course for a while where his rakes had thicker teeth. And when you went in there, it would sit down and again, as a player it's annoying, but it's also like, man, you shouldn't be in the sand then. We need to make this shit harder. We gotta start calling penalties. Make the teeth on the bunker rakes wider.
I'm going to 'shock the world' and win the Masters this week.
I say we shock the world to win the thing. I've been thinking a lot about it. I feel like not winning's less fun than winning. So I'm kind of just gonna go for it.
