Betting on Europe at +170 is a 'hammer' bet

I think the fact that you're getting plus money on Europe is wild. I would, I would, I would hammer Europe right now. I think, I think it, I think it's potential for blowout on the European side.

Europe won the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black 15-13 over the United States. Betting Europe at +170 was indeed a winning bet.

Kyler Murray is really good at a job that he hates and doesn't have fun playing football

I think [Kyler Murray] is really good at a job that he hates. And I think, I don't think he like, has fun playing football. Marvin Harrison, I think he's just, he's got the yips. He's in a weird zone and he's like not having a good time either. And he doesn't have a, a leader on the team that's actually like, trying to get him to play better. They go to the sidelines and they both just look sad.

Murray and Harrison's chemistry and body language were widely criticized early in the 2024 season, though 'hating the job' is subjective.

The Seahawks are a very good team and their defense is excellent

I think the Seahawks are good. I think their defense is very good and, and I I just think they're good. Like I, I, I, I'm high on the Seahawks and I'm low on the Cardinals.

The Seahawks finished 2024 with a winning record and a strong defensive showing under Mike Macdonald.

The Guardians are the best team in baseball right now

Guardians are, are red hot. I put a future on the Guardians to win the World Series just because of like how crazy this last month has been for them. The best team in baseball right now. I don't think they're, they're the most talented team, but like, in terms of the streak that they're on, it's worth a shot at least.

The Guardians had a great 2024 season but did not win the World Series.

Tiger Woods will likely not be the Ryder Cup captain because he doesn't want the life-consuming media commitments.

I'd heard Tiger didn't really want to do it. I mean there's a lot of commitments. You see how involved Luke Donald is on the European side. It's basically become his life. I don't think Tiger wanted to do a lot of the background media stuff, things like that. So I don't necessarily think he was gonna do that anyway.

Tiger Woods did not serve as captain for the 2025 Ryder Cup (Keegan Bradley was named captain).

Tiger Woods is focused on playing the US Senior Open to win the only USGA title he is missing.

There's been a lot of talk around [Tiger] potentially playing in the US senior open with an opportunity and nobody's ever won the US Junior, US Junior Amateur, US Amateur, US Open and a US senior. Tiger is a big history buff... I think there's a focus on potentially playing in that at some point this summer.

Tiger Woods has expressed interest but health has remained a factor in his senior tour eligibility and participation.

Scotty Scheffler's iron play has been average and inconsistent for a pro golfer this season.

I'd say bad for a pro golfer. He's 82nd right now [in strokes gained]. He's average on the PGA tour this season with his irons. This is a stat that he's led each of the last three seasons. If Steph Curry started to miss free throws, you'd be looking around going, what's going on here?

Strokes gained data is verifiable and Bacon is citing actual tour rankings for that specific point in time.
