This is that the Adam goals you have financial advisory through capital financial USA.com. This is the Adam Gold show.

This is speaking of majors with Dave Morgan, red light BSL alum Steve Martin, one of the all-time great community. Yes the jerk by the one you've been using that movement was a jerk actually is a tall man you like it you like there's a movie I've seen Dennis if he had a gold show steep canyon in the Rangers right to steep Canyon Ranger logistic Canyon Ranger.that's it. I am going to write on. There's all that have gotten it right. I'd like we should just do the Roundtable them and people stop making fun of me for five seconds, 99 on the fan around my friend. Also, my friend Josh Graham sports triad. He joins us as well. Soon the band get back together.

I didn't realize that this is a recurring panel. The second time, I believe that we have had together.

Thanks to both of you for doing this to start right right close to me with Joe Julio Josh Graham because we I do want to start with the most recent failure by the North Carolina Gen. assembly to rubberstamp sports wagering but we can still do it. We just have to drive to Cherokee to do it Josh you're closer to charity than we are. Our our hall for us, Joe. What surprised you about North Carolina splitting two votes that should been close, but were both close I knew that there were Democrats and Republicans split on the yes both ways. This was a bipartisan failure, which is crazy and I knew there was a morality play in their but I did not realize the addict both the Dixie classic and the black socks 1919 scandal, used by representatives as reasons to not legalize gambling in the year 2022 of our Lord I went for what what I read black socks but I did read the Dixie classic thing which that's what sent me over the edge of anger. That's what what what was your favorite meaning most hated part Josh.

Just the fact I see I North Carolina I go to church on Sunday. I can't find the passage where Jesus Christ himself is saying that it's against his morality or morality in general to lay the points with NC State against the Pirates later this year. It's frustrating, like when you talk about democracy you tend to think of the elected representatives are supposed to do the things we want them to do and W L'Oreal recently had that pullout exit 52% supported only 28% are against it. 20% of the people who could not care (2% supported right it is frustrating when you have arguments that are brought up about your scandalous things in the 50s with NC State and North Carolina and the black socks in all these things being brought up in 2022 but with more frustrating. It's such an easy when there's no risk at all. People already gamble in the state to state. Tennessee and Virginia geography lesson here.

They have it as well. So really, I don't see the negative. I don't really see the risk and I certainly see is the thing about when ice when I read the comments from our elected officials in North Carolina and really this was a bipartisan failure, and the guy I forget his forget is his last name, who voted against people based on the Dixie classic point shaving scandal, treat right John Autry is a Democrat night and that we have one guy who voted for one bill and against the other bill right he's a Republican. This has nothing to do with party.

This has everything to do with absolutely not understanding the issue and this is the thing that bothered me. If you don't understand the issue then have somebody in your office research the issue because if you're hanging your hat on. Well, there was a point shaving scandal in 1954, then understand that the way we route these things out today are the legal bookmakers Vegas is the biggest advocate for not having point shaving scandal. This is the same thing that there was no geo-fencing during the tick Dixie classic unfortunate legal gambling and sports still putting get more.

We got college sports out of the out of the bill made me so angry when it almost makes you think they don't understand that I dealt with all export got college sports in. That's probably half your action by half, maybe, maybe 30% of your action in the state of North Carolina would be wagering on college sports were still talking about mostly NFL football may be NBA basketball probably NFL football will be the most we want to get until January 1. Anyway, but I'm sorry to whole thing and it's how it's it I think it's hopeless.

It doesn't look good writing about what I can get it for. By January 1 so I can can we head to the casino next week. That's my plan to start off in Nashville gamble just by general principle so upset about this. We got back we go let you know you look because at the Little League World Series started yet. Oh gosh, I something down. It was funny in one of the bills. My favorite thing about one of the bills, I forget which one it was 38 or 688. Whatever the tube numbers work was that you were forbidden to bet on preschool sports like I had Primrose -4 1/2 over Goddard in the soccer match to prove to preschools in the triangle. I can't the whole thing was hoping was too much for me golden studio with my friend Coach Pete through the capital financial advisory group. We are talking retirement hotels longevity risk figure into our retirement and income plan. This is the best of times and the worst of times and longevity risk to live too long, but to me everyday lives not too long after we want to money to outlive us and unfortunately many people have seen you out there listening.

Maybe one of them. Your money is not designed to outlive you. You might outlive your money and that's not what we want to have happen because we get to that day after you run out of money not to be a fun time with design a plan that guarantees you never run out of money.

We call it the GPI plant growth protection lifetime income for the next 10 people is a golden ticket out of the snow. They do at no cost or obligation, and all you have to do is call we make it so easy. Would you like financial independence into your retirement and beyond. It hundred 661-7383 that golden ticket is $1000 value or you could text Adam to 21000 for Coach Pete to root Joe Julio give me your your impressions of NBA draft night. I think the Orlando Magic got it wrong day. I do that, that's fair. What you've the number one overall pick. You want to make sure you're getting a person that you could build your franchise around. I think Paolo Bay care can be a productive Pro for the next 10 years.

I don't think your to build a championship team around him because just discussed your central question of how to do cannot win it will Paolo bear. Carol was never the dog of that team. He was never the bus driver of that team, except when they were running hot all Europe, 31, of Duncan. Everybody now okay the last 10 minutes of the final four.

He took four shots made one right.

It's not enough to assist in the not a match involved Joe, do you think is the best player in the draft.

I don't think Jabari Smith can can shoot the ball. Has a skill of being able to shoot the ball not to suggest that they Carol can't become a better shooter. These guys do get to be NBA they do improve their names. I just think Smith has a better upside as a shooter and score outlaw Anthony Edwards so seeing now. I think that's the right, Anthony Edwards, to me was the right copper Jabari Smith Jimmy Smith was the better athlete. There is no doubt he's an old super athlete 610 and a better shooter. The rest of his game isn't close to what bank Carrows totally herein, much more skilled rest and polished. I thought and just let you comment on this. I thought the difference and I would've taken Jabari Smith first to be on sounds on in a way I'm agreeing with you, but my feeling about Ben Caro is as a leaner Paolo Ben Caro because he's going to get leaner. Although that was a pretty flat purpose. He's going to get leaner. He'll get stronger and I think his quickness will improve a little. I think that's the only thing preventing him from being a really good player and All-Star level player is maybe a little bit more quickness but has to improve that to the point is our previous mentality is mindset, not worry about that you can fix that.

The reason why I asked you the best player. One of the frustrating thing that happens about when it comes to the draft you get so lost in upside and what I got can be you just lose the best guy so I respect your opinion that you think Jabari is the best got I think it's hollow because maybe I'm just a little biased from having seen it so close.

All throughout the year, but I think it's a weird thing happens almost reminds me of the Oscars and you have like the best picture shows up at the shape of water weight is not the movie involving like a love scene with the fish person. This is the best movie that we have this year scratching your head draft, but I'm not number one pick never tends to be the person that you feel is the best basketball player. The most polished playwright. A lot of people forget that policy will six months younger and say home grenades and I hear all these things about outside even though when check and follow shared floor together. Hollow was the better basketball player when they met in Vegas last November, Jabari, when you look at some of the games he's had the bigger ones are watching a full game against Miami and when I went three of 15 or 16 and it then in the tournament. The SEC tournament loss technique in their first game against Texas A&M. There are some big spots were Jabari didn't show up so much and while I think what you're saying is true about Paolo's mentality. It's easy you guys 19 years old and showed up in a lot of the big games in a way I don't think Jabari is towards the end of year.

I think were maybe focusing too much on shot attempts. I don't think you necessarily wrong about Ben Caro's mindset is a player. I think the IQ in a week. We criticize and I am not comparing these two players but we criticize Lebron James for making the right basketball play as opposed to taking the shot couple years ago we criticized RJ Barrett for taking the shot, which by the way, got him to the free throw line with a chance to tie Michigan State unwinds criticized for that, but he was we criticized him for that. So I think it Ben Caro has more of a total floor game mentality. You might be right that I also think that the best player in the I'm not trashing the guy that game at Cameron the last game at Cameron when the game is turning those guys have all bad. I'm just saying when the games turning you have to understand the moment and to not when it's two minutes left, not when it's three minutes left when the damn games get away from you got away from that early in an opposite her arm Bonnie Tyler over here.

I'm waiting for a hero and an allegedly you talk about the number one player in the country I'm going number one player floor right now is either Caleb lover amount obeying God eclipse of the heart, and they understood the moment. That's my biggest problem with bowel Paolo can Caro the time and time again we see them not understand the moment that the Clemson and Miami, close calls in the other losses that they had leaked. They literally had five pros. Why am did they lose to anyone in the because the one guy who was supposed to be.

The bus driver wasn't selected but is not selective, though he was 20 at 10 in the final four game awesome against the best defense in the country against Texas Tech in the Sweet 16 when Bonnie Tyler needed a hero and he was that guy. I 2010 with three points in the last eight minutes of the game. Just last 10 minutes and he was right was 1111 pick in the final get number one graphics like Brandon John is a great crow. I think the spotlight being in it being coach case last year might allow us to be a little bit too critical of a God that again is six months younger than Jack did a lot of great things when you look at the overall risk and the best player in this draft is good to be Jade Navi. Anyway not work Williams no no I love Jade Navi. I think Jade Knight is going to be Apsley great. This what I said before I think bank Carrows floor is higher than the other floors. I think his ceiling might not be as high as some the other guys I think is floor is higher than their floors. Seth Greenberg called it a safe picked the fair I think will be productive and you will be will be an event he's got Chet Holmgren might break in half a good genre but you see I don't like that bad, ugly, because might not ever have to play down low brain games change right kick closer to poor zingers that he used anybody else present just really was a perimeter player just, once that to me that's Holmgren is a better player than for steps. Poor zinc is our lips violate ACC player of the year, two years in a row doesn't get drafted. People are surprised that I want to caution them. The ACC player of the year doesn't really mean anything.

We had the SEC football player of the year to know how many years ago now, six, seven years ago get drafted in the seventh round.

The defensive player of the year in the SEC, Michael Sam was drafted in the seventh round those awards don't matter.

While they don't matter for your pro potential right when you turned 23 on Sunday at it's going to be really hard for you just like with Gary on C Braun who I think is 22. It's just that I have taught uphills battle and last year I tried biology somebody like that the highest level getting drafted. If you're not one of those guys probably wait. June 19, 2006 started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford is coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak. Figuring it out on the fly came fifth anniversary of the Carolina listen Josh Graham and Joe Julio. Maybe we can get in. Two things probably just one.

I thought some live golf Josh will I'm interested in what's happening with majors. That's safety net PGA Tour Jay Monahan hoped that he would have the ally hoped that they would have in terms of maybe trying to determine some of these guys from acting, but obviously play in the US open the USDA announcement on the open championship this week, we learned not to know you guys think terms of what cost does because we've learned that the Masters use things a lot differently than anybody else have workpapers they can make more money make more money they can bump the prices up on the permit though cheese sandwiches that they sell inside the building they can have their gift shop open year-round rather than just the week of but they value tradition more than any of the other part of it that are out there and exclusivity in a way to I just don't know where. When do you think we might get a decision would even be in 2022 you want to give your thoughts before I answer Josh to live guys or bad guys. This is no destitute and poor right people out at the RGA try and make their way onto the PGA tour because they don't have a pot to person these guttural millionaires. Kevin made $39 million playing golf. I'm pretty sure he can handle living in Vegas and playing on the PGA tour so I think that doesn't even care what they made off the clay. I mean heck coming the money I spend on golf balls and equipment having shoes and shirts and all that other stuff I would take that for free yeah just send has made all just over $100 million playing golf. He is made more than that, off the course and endorsements. So to me they're greedy. That's number one. That answer the question about the majors.

If you qualify for majors. I don't think you can go back and say you're no longer qualified, but the key point is immutable golf rankings there because you have to be in the top 50 which we've seen with Augusta. That's pretty rookie big move this week by banning the live player from Scottish open choice knowing I'm surprised it's a cosponsored event by the PGA Tour that you saw this week. What's stays in insincere Jerry Garcia in Germany and points to play in the eye while if they play well enough. Neither of them are playing well at night right now and there to play at the Irish open next week to the DP world tour is in a very bad spot because that is a tour that is really really struggling. The PGA Tour has propped them up financially and with sponsor support. The PGA Tour gave them as a sponsor for the Scottish open Genesis the same car company that sponsors tigers event Los Angeles is sponsoring the Scottish open the purses for those are the biggest purses on the European tour the old European tour.

Both $8 million purses.

There was no way the DP world tour was not going to support the PGA Tour's tournament band. By allowing those players to play in the Scottish because again it is a cosponsored event, the majors don't like the majors will adjust their qualifications not to ban players so they can't tell The Daycare Place, There's a Handful of Players Who Are Qualified DJ Can Play the Masters for the Rest of His Life, Sergio Garcia, Patrick Rate for the Rest of Time, but the Players for the Other Majors.

The Players Who Are Not Exempt in Its Going to Be Harder to Get in and Here's Where the USDA and the RNA Can Make It Difficult for Those Players Away from the World Rankings You Can Simply Say That If You Are a Professional Not Affiliated with a Recognized Tour Then You Don't Have an Exemption in and Then You Must Go through Qualifying to Get so DJs Sponsor or Is Exemption in the U.S. Open Has Four More Years Whenever to Get to That I Don't. I Think Were Going to See Sort of a I Don't Know How Long Lives Going to Last. I Think Lives Go to Last As Long As the Saudi One Throw Money at Right, but It Really Depends on the Players and If the PGA Tour Does What the PGA Tour Said It's Going to Do, Which Is Going to Be to Jack A Lot Of Purses up for These Silly Season Events, Which by the Way Work Contrary to the Rank and File of the Tour.

The Tour Has Been Probably Too Kind to the to the Rank-And-File to the Players outside of the Top 50 All the Way to the Next 150. The Tour's Been Too Much of a Cushy Landing Spot for Them. They Know They've Got Jobs Right What the Tour Is Going to Do Now. It's Going to Make It so That the Top 70. You Guys Are Good and Everybody 71 through 200 You Guys Gotta Fight It out in the Off-Season. That's What the Tour Is Doing There. There They Are Doing. They Are Going to Make It Harder to Stay on the Tour Which Is I Guess Maybe That's Sports Where We Are Top-Heavy Everywhere. We Are Every Sport. It Caters to the Top. The Salary Caps All Cater to the Top and Then the Men of This like There's No Middle Class in Sports Anymore. That's What the PGA Tour's Good, but I Guess I Wonder Now the Big Question Now Is Here Locally and Try Patrick Reed Graham McCalla. Many of These Others Can't Compete in the PGA Tour Begets Edgefield in a Month and I Have No Doubt They'll Have a Fine Field. They'll Have a Good Enough to Find a Way. Graham McDowell Doesn't Make Any Field Better.

Sergio Garcia Doesn't Make Any Field Better We Can Close the Folder That Makes No Feel Better Is a Good Dresser Liking Folder Style Hologram at BellSouth and for the Most Part, Here's the Thing about the Players. How Many Players Playing Live Right Now and We Could You Guys Can Each Answer This in Them, Illegible How Many Players Playing Live or Missed by the PGA Tour.

Nashville Brooks Kappa Will Be Best Fail Is Coming to Greensboro Marketing Is When Phil Doesn't Play the Weekend. It Doesn't Matter. He's Not a Factor in the in the Tournament. The Marketing Is Missed by Phil Tiger Woods Probably Is Competing in a Major Way Either. But If Tiger Woods Was a Typewriter with the Marketability of Tiger and Fellow Different Animals. The List 32.

That's a Tough One. I Thought That Was a Tough One. The Only Player Who Moves the Needle on the Live Tour. Only One Actually Phil Would Be the Second One Is Bryson to Ship Also Young District, but This Note to Jimbo Is a Needle Mover People Are Fascinated with Pricing to Shampoo. None of the Other Players on the Tour Again Other Than Fill Our Fascination. Everyone I Do. Thus It's Boring. He's Great. He's Great, but He's a He's a Feasible Work Is Gotten It Plays with No Personality Zero.

Bryson Plays a Personality That's the That's the Thing That You Know You Know Who Else Would Be up a Big Loss If You Left Jordan Spaeth Speech Is like Maybe a Top 25 Player. Maybe I Don't Even Know If He If He Really Is, Forget about What the Role Rankings but Speak Is Fun to Watch Because He's a Chef.
