The correct move when you start playing bad golf is to talk more to get it out of your system

The correct move is like, once you start fucking up, you should talk more like get it outta your system. Yeah. Just be, just be open with how badly you're playing.

Psychological strategy in recreational sports is subjective.

Tiger Woods is spiritually and emotionally dead as a golfer

Tiger Woods is dead. Yeah, spiritually. I mean what? You should emotionally five over six over. Yeah. Something like that. It was, it's tough to watch. It's tough to watch.

Tiger Woods missed the cut at the 2022 Open and his competitive form continued to struggle in subsequent years.

The 2022 Open Championship is perfectly set up for Rory McIlroy to win

This whole tournament just seems like it's all setting up for Rory. It feels it's giving Rory. No, it feels like it's it feels like it's Rory's time, right? Like been playing some of the best golf of his career as we've sat on this show.

Rory McIlroy finished 3rd in the 2022 Open Championship, falling short of the win to Cameron Smith.

Naming your child Cameron makes it likely they will win an Open Championship because it's the ultimate golf name

It can't be, they'll just be random. Cameron. I don't know why all the Camerons are good at golf... cam Smith. Isn't random. We got cam young. And Cameron's are just it's it's the most golf name out there. Have a kid named Cameron. They'll probably win an open championship.

Cameron Smith actually did win this 2022 Open Championship, making this accidentally very correct.

The overturning of Folarin Balogun's suspension is the smallest piece of justice the United States has ever received from FIFA

The United States has never benefited from FIFA's corruption before, and it feels like we've been left out of that party. If this is our taste of the corruption, and all the corruption is just overturning a suspension that should never have been given in the first place... it's the smallest piece of justice that the United States could ever get from FIFA.

The USMNT did successfully have Balogun's suspension rescinded during the 2026 World Cup.

The sensor chips inside soccer balls are bullshit and not perfectly aligned with the cameras

I'm so deep into this chip in the ball thing, I've become convinced that it's all bullshit. The sensors, yes, they're there and yes, they pick up on stuff, but there's no chance that it is perfectly aligned with the 50 cameras that are running concurrently in the stadium on live TV at any given time.

This is a subjective claim about technical precision, though PFT expresses strong doubt.

Brandon Aiyuk is in a bad space mentally and will not be signing with the Washington Commanders.

The Washington Commanders have released Brandon [Aiyuk] today from the contract that he didn't sign with us and was never going to sign. Things got kind of weird over the weekend. So [Aiyuk] was saying like talking shit about Jayden's mom... I think that should probably put an end to the Brandon [Aiyuk] to the Commanders rumors. But I was never really on board for it, it's been weird for quite some time with Brandon. I hope he gets whatever help he needs. It doesn't seem like he's in a good space mentally. And it seems like even his best oldest friends have tried to help him and he just burns those bridges too.

Subjective opinion on Aiyuk's mental state and burned bridges, plus a prediction about not going to the Commanders.
