Brockman's here Mike seer TJ's here the guests we have today are fantastic. Gar Ynez's I could sit and talk to for an hour straight there the trade deadline with baseball MLB. There is so many big moves. He was in the San Diego to watch show Juan Soto's first at babies there which were incredible and so will get it all. That's up with him. Obviously football Brockman you watched the Hall of Fame game yesterday I watched every single second of it.

I believe you. Not because I'm a huge football fan because I bet the under dude you like. It's raining, it's raining, there's going to be bad to play but then you are like wait a minute. The raters are good. The raters are good and the running all over Jacksonville where there was a 45 minute delay because of lightning last night, pouring down rain. Carol Lawrence's hair still perfect judge Trevor lives like you she was recording a part in per +2 and one commercial light on the line is, here's way to Tony Miceli come on time to sell. He walks out there you like guys and I remember when he was is the first break, ever, ever, of the Jacksonville Jaguars and was a guy a franchise guy. That's the beginning to end.

The first pick ever for franchise that needed somebody and you start with an offense of lineman which everyone's like, who back in the day no one knows the offense of lineman. Nobody knows this got this giant 67 330 pound guy is gonna be the future of our team don't like fan bases when they pick a lineman attack or something. There just are not happy because I got a hustle. That's like the person at the record store who knows more about like the bands that anyone who walks in Yunnan.

I mean you like will I just want a Coldplay album like okay this right here is the best thing you'll ever hear in your life and then they like to let you know that they know more about its that's exactly what teams are when they pick lineman and so you see Miceli great career and then go into the Hall of Fame. We talk about this were on the show yesterday. Our mom grew up and Ken grew up in Canton Ohio we would go there every year and our dad was too cheap to take us to the whole thing is with 1/2 Hall of Fame's nice thought Hall of Fame super cool. All that is amazing. There like the games themselves. This game was just in most preseason games, but I feel like people are excited about the whole thing can be put on TV. It's a big deal. There is a lot of pomp and circumstance get the Hall of Fame or something to flip coins and other stuff and then you looking at these two guys who are white, practice squad dudes is the core it's just I really thought is fun to me yet another thought. I guess it's one of those things where it's when it's been five months without football your kind of excited to anything you guys and helmets. The uniforms Doug Peterson's out there not wearing a visor upset. I lost that bet as well Doug Thompson to me is that John him Fridays. I had had ham fat ham. I looked at him. Pearson's grading want to Super Bowl for Christ sake patriots like given some credit work did it with the back did it with the most. Philadelphia named quarterback ever so Philly has the accident. We swallow the elves right you know I'm a huge fan of Nick Fowles\while all of my owls cage poles bowls friend. So I mean that a great moment with that you like. Maybe he can do it again down there in Jacksonville. I don't know, I really was awesome was good to see the raters Internation always shows up as one of the thinking that they don't have a Hall of Famer slave) going this year – so obviously they were showing up and showing out for that eggs and rain in the stadiums great Mike you been there that the new stadium. The new construction that's going on. It had beautiful beautiful is nice to see you back.

I know with a quality point really expecting much but it's that feeling of like member. There was no sports because the pandemic I just did know anything and then they put on on ESPN. They did a horse between like yeah and a player yet MBA and WMA players and that was the moment at which you realize how written the pay disparity were like Mike Conley Junior is like playing in basically a practice Jim and is the back of his house and like a WMA player is playing like on a hoop in their driveway in Indianapolis and like just a simple subdivision.

I was like what little is this is terrible like she's contending with the wind. Mike Conley Junior has a climate control. Jim and like a ball machine that's feeding them stuff and like people like other kids from other Baltimore.

Other yards are going through the shot willingness audience reaction, but still you're so starved for it. You are excited that it's back to also listen to so-and-so to get into today you like. This is going to go by so fast and really will the truth the matter is where to get into later will talk about the live golf because it is insane. I really want to get into the now the live golfers are suing the PGA for suspending them, which is just fast they will get into that later, maybe bottom of this hour will talk MMA will talk about with Brenda Fitzgerald who is amazing because I know who he is and but first let's talk about football is really on everybody's mind I'm in the NFL is back preseason is back at people's gonna start to draft her fantasy league sooner you starting soon to drive already been thinking about who and what a cabinet keeper league. We talk about my week out of a lot of this show be writers. It's absurd. I have a have a draft that takes 89 hours there's no time limits, and I'm sure your wife Sarah in your kid feel great about that too. Where's dad he's doing something that means nothing for nine hours literally be the director going out of town this week at the draft at my house this year, my God, we travel to the city of the team that wins the Super Bowl. We all kinda gathers nice indigo Manor is Baltimore right Tampa last year. Yeah so yeah we talk about my drafts got more than we should. TJ, I don't. Everyone's kind of over it, but I have already begun thinking about who I'm keeping and I are in the strategy and what I want to do with the my quarterback situation, just like I'm so immersed in fantasy already and it's like still three weeks away.

Let me ask you this. Does anyone in their right mind take to Sean Watson just even as a bench object like does this guy see the field this year because he gets six games suspended from the court. I guess her court ordered six and the league is not happy with it. The league it's like he should be out for your which I personally agree I agree that he should be out for a year. I just do because the NFL is your place of work. It's your business if you do something wrong or you do something better place work. It's a lower bar to clear than the law itself. Okay, let's just beat you know if you do something that the office is like. This is not a good thing if there's a guy in your break room at work in your officer who just he doesn't bring lunch.

He just sits there and watches other people eat their lunch check it's not against the law but you like. Discuss creeping everybody out like somebody system likes his men and get them out here for a few weeks and am on a non-paid vacation. I think most people, the office would be cool with that.

I'm saying that, like the league has the right to be like I one massage therapist saying that you've done something wrong. Okay I understand you can dispute that claim to now start to get suspicious. 3030 people filing claims against you. At that point it's like time to hire an escort and teach her how to massage you not to me and I that's I did to me. I was so surprised that the Browns victim that he went to the Browns. I would've thought that he would've gone to the predators. I play hockey but darn it doesn't bed feel like the right team for this guy to go to.

I mean, so now I guess raw. I'm going to be Carolina Panthers man because I because I love schadenfreude and you want you know you want Baker Mayfield to rise up and have a great year. I mean is that were all sitting at this point I forget.

Are you guys Browns fans originally will.

So I'm we were at St. Louis Cardinals season-ticket holders year after year, Neil Lomax O'Neill of his book premium Lomax Jim Hart right you know Pat Tilly not Pat Tillman, Pat Tilly. He never served anywhere. He never did anything for his country but he was a good wide receiver Roger Whirley was his son played baseball with us, but like we're huge Carl spent every year they were terrible, terrible Dan Deardorff met him in and knew him and and just great God like they were five and 11 every year I remember when a kicker named Novo Bodio, Vic God bless you site. Thank you that soccer player who one time kicked a 52 yard field goal ran into the end zone and spiked the ball back I was like, act like you've been there before, so Jane I have this new show on as I mentioned before, the nosebleeds on Yosef. I pastor a couple of billboards up around there's a gigantic when I was going up the flock just right yet.

I sure you guys what you will find funders awesome. My guy so I go there's one on Sunset right by the comedy store right at sunset and Kings Road which is a great spot for today. So there it is gigantic to be stupid on the top of the date and I brought my daughter there and she and where like filming me and she does like a hilarious sketch. She's my daughter who's here today, 17 years old. She got to be a senior performing arts high school wants to be a director and sheetlike growth is little sketch for us to do. It was so funny she was like hey dad she's filming is that that guy looks like you on a billboard and then her friend wants mind is like on and I don't see it that I turn on Mike and that's Jason so and then I realized I'm stiff and people are looking I'm standing there filming a thing where I been on the it's like, act like you been there before. I kicked a 52 yard vehicle and I spiked the ball so that's what I grew up with the Cardinals and I left St. Louis and the Rams came and in the Rams one and I was just happy for St. Louis. They were really my team but I was happy for St. Louis that they had one of the Rams came back here and you know how it is.

It's like it's your team only when if they lose it ruins your weekend right like if they lose in your kind like I let's go do some like doesn't.

You don't care what if Michigan loses on like I want to talk to anybody I want to see anybody like this is when I should get my grocery shopping done, to just be pushing people out of the way.

I don't care I'll be reading people, reaching for items that I want, yank them all yell at a baby and no one asked your opinion on this. That's if your team if you're a fan of it so I don't really have one now you know what I mean so, but I would refer Baker Mayfield I would refer this guy to succeed. I refer the Carolina Panthers to make some like Browns were you doing because let's talk about that you know that division. I don't think Pittsburgh is going to be as good. Obviously we know Roethlisberger, I mean they have a decent defense that always are going to have some Pittsburgh magic, but I don't know if they're going to be good. We just don't know. I think the get me down. The ravens are one Lamar Jackson outside the pocket run away from having an pretty mediocre team. If he gets hit or injured like what Cincinnati will be great, yes, but I thought the Browns on the precipice of making the playoffs. Almost every year. Do you agree or disagree am I in the right agree they have a really good team the earlier roster good defense lawyer Miles Garrett baby and clowning to got a great run job Nick Chavez fantastic cream hunt is there yesterday so we talk about the Browns. We think all men. This is a really good roster. There are quarterback away, it seemed like of cannons. I think it wasn't the answer he was now just seemed like he was a good be the guy to win a Super Bowl cranial playoff game. Yes, he did that right to get to the next level you need that upper echelon tear quarterback need to fire Doug Collins and bring in your unfilled having infiltrated exactly at that vision to get rid of this car there.

People think the roster is good enough to compete right it's yo can we get this one missing piece and it's like, well, let's go get the guy with 30 lawsuits pending, but I may not lie it.

Yet memory like we can't have Colin Cabernet chorale because we can cannons that we can have Michael Sam because he's gonna ruin the lifetime of this that like okay we can invite this guy and with all this controversy. So even if he does play that's can be every question but have you been to and will talk about this later to a live golf tournament, press conference, no one's asking how's the putting surface is okay every got another question right take about blood money is like the first question out of everybody's mouth you know and so, don't you think that's gonna dominate every press conference that DeShawn Watson is like what's going on with all these accusations against his new food teacher who would want to invite that into their locker room and into the mail. I know I know the Cleveland Browns is is is just a case of around the Browns in a weird way it just feels like rounds gonna brown again. I think most guaranteed money in an NFL contract ever yeah what why is for that guy that that's a guy you say if the Browns did this if you like when you put him this guy know is talented but will put him on a league minimum count like a rookie minimum, turn it make him earn it. We know he's talented but he's Jean Hackman who punched a kid over here now you got cut high school kids.if you let me make him earn it, make him fight his way back if he can do it, then grant will pay you I mean he's a very no less than four passes before you can shoot for the end zone. You know III just to get the Browns like what we got him on the cheap bike. We got him this.

We repeat this, cheap you know and and they could've played it better with Baker a bit like you're our guy. I just think it's too bad for the city of Cleveland the fans the other players on the team that head coach Kevin Stefanski like you really ask for this snow is now I have to put up with this in the put the questions that this think of this guy in their organization, who apparently just doesn't seem to be like a good guidance you like to be the guy we all thought he was right when he first came in the league.

His first couple years in Houston and so it's just it just got a major bummer all around and you think about your quarterback.

Truthfully this on the most basic level, he is the guy to make all the right decisions for you. You talk about Tom Brady know like the guy just makes all the right decisions.

Aaron Rogers when he's not doing I want Scott making all the wretches or maybe he is making some maybe make me keno something that we don't know him and I would put a pass Rogers. I love Aaron Rogers selected the truth of like he makes a lot of great decisions on the football field if you like this guy is making all these bad decisions off the football field, getting himself in situations that we are again like no one else has 30 lawsuits against them from 30 separate masseuses like come on. This is an unheard of thing in. I would we trust that got a runner offense.

I don't know I just don't trust him to be the face your franchise because that's what the quarterback is and what you paid him to be, which is just insane. There's Cowboys stuff that I want to talk about but I think we should probably go to break will you get the break gets a break was a baseball will talk some baseball. This is the Randy Sklar filling in for Rich Eisen on the Rich Eisen show on Peacock on NBC Sports guys I gotta say this.

I love this when Callaway engineered chrome soft to be the best tour ball. It didn't just make the best players better and made everyone better men, women, babies who play golf or first-time major winners repeat major winners club champions business golfers.

The chrome soft family has the best tour performance for every type of performance starting with regular chrome soft, which is designed for the widest range of golfers who want better feel I need that more more distance. I need that incredible forgiveness I need that for my family. Can we get that out there, but for better players looking for more workability chrome soft X provides excellent spin consistency tour level shirking control.

Finally, chrome soft XLS gives you a lower spin golf ball on longer shots from the field but still with high spin around the greens and now every chrome soft is enhanced with precision technology, which uses design techniques and manufacturing's specifications up to one 1000s of an inch. That's amazing. This ensures that the highest quality, most consistent fast as golf balls possible. We had a lot.

Pretty simple chrome soft is better for the best and better for everyone to find out which chrome soft is right for you@callawaygolf.com/chrome soft to be back with Gar rightness about his dance guy right after this.

Alright everybody, we are back.

What a great opening segment enjoyed its is an exciting time for sports is footballs combat college football is coming back, but a big week for baseball this past week trade deadlines to be huge deals went down some kinda insignificant deals went down, but to make sense of it all. I bring in my guy, my God is my dude he knows so much about baseball and does it in ways that I don't think anybody else is doing. Talk about batting stance guy Gar Ryan as to have the Sklar brothers neutralize right one-on-one.

It's not a two on one of my right always been like a tall gangly Sklar right right here. You're like a more ethnic look as if I could even be possible. You obviously the biggest news is who's going to win the Juan Soto sweepstakes and it was the San Diego Padres. We were at the All-Star game together this year and we were like where's he going to go and you said padres because your your brother-in-law and his son of the biggest padres man's ever up from to macula there, wearing their padres gear at dodger Stadium on Mike you guys be careful. I know it's an All-Star game like be careful but you like you could go the padres he could go to the Mets and go to the Yankees. He said, but padres is where he landed, surprised, excited, this is that of the Bethel young one to punch in all of baseball. My opinion, totally surprised because there's a lot of people that were watching nationals games over the last few years yeah and so they may not be familiar with one Soto rank-and-file West Coast, or write it if you said hey remember when Kershaw came out of the pen and the winner take all game five in 2019. Against that and when he came in to give them a home in the rundown and then I got hit a ball out of the stadium yeah I remember that now is on Soto yeah and I was like 15 at the this is a lesson I sent Danny Almonte when he illegally pitched in Little League was older than Juan, so that when he started majorly best academics and hundreds and he was the reason that the natural removal LAT harbor go is basically data cheaper, better model that was going to be there out for so the historical context on one Soto becoming available right there's there's never been an All-Star under 24 available midyear like this. It's like they don't like players usually don't come up 19th don't have and they usually haven't turned down uniform $40 million contract and so all and then the nationals are like going to probably sell their team and they're knocking to be good for the remainder of his contract is I go back to Montréal on just putting that it was the perfect storm to where there's there's no it was like when Otani came over its I hate this 23-year-old star from Japan which we payments like there's never been a 23 over in Japan. It's more like don't result in like 27 and up so right. This was this was unprecedented so I was hoping that the desperate teams like the padres the Mariners like teams that they don't have a shop to get a guy like this unless they draft him or you bring up the system was like trade all your prospects and I will prosper any trade Turner was traded away as a prospect just to get well. Myers of the padres Cory Cooper.

They then got rid of a lot of really good guys like the pottery I saw stat where the Dodgers in the last two years of 119 playoff games. The padres in their entire existence of 114 playoff game while two years have one more than yes so enough with the parade route right down the gas. I'm just like with like to win, but the padres are coming so I went down there for for whatever opening night, the first thing that they'll play nights ago it for anyone, it's ever been to a game in San Diego. Petco Park is amazing.

It's a great place to watch a game and were there. Juan Soto padres jerseys already. Not only were there. Soto jerseys already, but it was packed before the game starts. It was guys he wants to limit shot a guy in a bucket had of it was jammed and pottery fans will buy five I feel your pain padres fans know that like. Generally, when there is a highlight watch it when there's a highlight was there. It's like the Cubs fans are the ones cheering so don't be a walk off of the padres will be like booze because a lot of people are from Santos car.

They grow apart and also seen it is a lovely place. It is and here's my question is San Diego to shill for people to like actually are. Are you who did you see a little bit of San Diego aggression I saw. I saw Wednesday was we have we have the shot we have a shot to me because I still thought it might be like half-empty I just did. I didn't know and then I could tell the standing room only seats like 50 bucks… Although that's that that's the sign there was there was no like it wasn't like you know tequila giveaway and he was like it was people were there because they want to see Soto in the when Soto ran onto the field. The whole right field bleachers I need that's never crowded up up constantly.

Never got it and was sold out so hello.

I don't exciting because it was crazy, but doing a bit in that stadium where there was of similar kind of excitement was due member in the world baseball classic yes to Adam Jones catch yeah so that was Dominican versus them and that there was a lot of buzz but also it was like Dominican flag yeah Dragos I Chris it was like writing manic, crazy, but I wasn't really like the padres and the whole scheme is browned in yellow and if you're going to pick colors for your team definitely have it be proven P what you want to make sure that we love you have but I love the old school padres like the 80s padres Dave Winfield could've letter I could've been a star in any leagues you know those jeans returns. Yet, almost like a drop yet Jean rigid like a drop shadow on the actual name. Those are. That was like my favorite uniform.

I was just incredible. It was so 80s. Another fun. Nothing was one of the padres so never in the history of baseball has their have there been two stars in the same league. At the same time that finished the MVP race in the top three that were under 23 years old. I know that's a lot alike math the quick share versus my my cousin's former roommates restaurant so last year one Soto and Fernando Tutty's Junior both in the NL finish in the top three in an NL LEP up there both on they were both last year under 23 it's never happened were that's happened in the same league of the same tile and now those two are teaming to very least for the next three Octobers the Soto assignment. I do I'm saying is now part event. I do not think Juan Soto will re-sign for half $1 billion via Scott Borst with the padres so idly goes to the Yankee I think.

I think forever for $1 billion. He goes the Dodgers as I got things is not positive Dodgers but so. But here's the padres care, they have an amazing pitching staff.

Yeah there there top. If snow pitches get what you did there. Top four and I'm putting Sonoma for like I know I'm in. I like they're all good there all good enough to go toe to toe with the Braves Dodgers.

The Mets right so why not go all in. Put all the chips in. They threw it in the trailer and agent colors doing the best. Basically, kind of like that the top three prospects Tony Hawk, the channel 4 news team Tony everything that you and Islam. San Diego Lake and Lutz Quattro one of the grandmother to make tacos Atlas Quattro Bill plus when Hosmer said no. Then the throwing loop avoidant blink 182. I can't believe what it is in their hands all the small things a there's no there's no parade for your farm system right so it's it's winning now versus versus the one of the pot.

Quick. One of the padres have to lose them nothing to lose and find you spent a lot of money on the sky for a few years, but you saw the stadium in a way that it's never been so fun if you get a chance to if you're if you held your money for elevated and you didn't go to Italy like this guy not hiking the Alps later this week go to San Diego going to have a pet is one my favorite part. There's a will there's a wiffleball stadium behind behind the other in there. I've been padres staffers pitch to the kids. The kids why not list that happens in some other stadiums but then there's this one like you're at the like Concord Pavilion watching CO 1991. Yes it was.

And then the Tony Gwynn statues there.

It's like this amphitheater, we oversee the you can makes kids to make sand castles just beyond centerfield like we want to take care of the San Diego gorges. I'm not a seat in the house. It's a it's one of those like smaller and right downtown. It's a walk if you're downtown. Every food item is there.

It's for and I it's a great stating to me. I'm like the obviously the two best stadiums in my opinion are Fenway Park and Wrigley Field every oldest and most beautiful I've come I Donna 180 on dodger Stadium. I used to hate it and now I think it is in the top maybe five or six stadiums in all of baseball case to hate it. But now I, love it, but I think obviously San Francisco.

Whatever they're calling it pack member was PacBell. It's 18 it's hard now to more than most PS I've been seeing him every salmon and the Giants have the best stadium. If you don't you don't factor in hundred year history. If you factor in Wrigley, and claimant's. The Bentleys ventilator for sure one in one incredible sizing. The Giants is the most beautiful and probably the Pirates were better every week so and see Alcatraz right every vantage point at the Giants Stadium at Oracle. No ceiling stadium or the upper deck or better seats in the Lord, as you see out into the bay new cement rafting we had really have seats and almost was worse but I would've rather been up as you can see how sitting down this playoff game and and were looking kind of just on the third-base side of home plate and I'm looking out onto above the right field wall and there's like a missed kind of coming in after seeing dudes standing on top of the wall and I'm thinking to myself this is what it must've been like in like 1920 1910 when there were like no fences but just a bunch of like businessmen like reading newspapers out in right field.

It does look like a line of people standing on top of the legality watch this game. There was something timeless about it so I do love that part but I will go back to Petco and say it is one of the most beautiful part ever so now it's in the incident, especially the neighborhood. Yes, great. Since only a cool top five parking, and now you got a team that so what you do if you don't pitch it to tease you got a picture Soto or vice versa like one of those guys.

They, it's a shame it did they'll cancel trot is having a great year yeah you could make the case of the second best hitter on the market of the trade online was dry spell date and then and then so I get down there that there's buzz like I've never seen the Friday butchering the intros no one's in a pod again for the intro and so so Soto walks up for pictures on first and then Josh Bell walks. So now Brandon Drury, who is like the throat of the third hater to injury they get his I'm in a maze kind of a journeyman and then as it 20 home amazing your cell phone on later from my Napoleon.

I know I Josh 80.

The left lung. Erica long hair was having a rough time, so he's now not on the walking rights as part of so Brandon Drury comes up in first about its grand slam right pedal loses its mine and my crone warrants an All-Star. Now the thing is they have these like Pro, Fars, and they have best Manolo's baseball yet I have these guys very soon.

You have drinkers in any guys that like are hitting in the top five. It really should be like 79 LAR number 79.

So now you those guys are protected because unit unit pitches they want sort of edits.

Disgrace is also little like Brockman map nerdy but I love basically all teams aligned in the postseason and in 2019. The pray.

The most important single play younger fans a national sense or member this was in the in the wildcard game. Josh Ater was on hittable brewers were kind of winning Biot and if you reminisce one Soto hits hard base hit delete score run to the outfield transgression.

Who's coming to can replace yellow today was hurt misses the heart of it was all the way to the fence right and then because of that Christian gets traded because brewers like Winona Marotta. Mark is treated as a park so now all three of those players involved there on the padres.

It's amazing the most important play 319. So when you ask all three of those guys hater Soto and Gresham are all so close in the padres get to a big postseason home so to is just combining the players screwed up in the wildcard dream for a different team will this might be the Padres year to overtake a team like the dogs and the doctors are juggernaut but potteries are deftly making the playoffs.

Now definitely making the blood either. You might see three playoff teams from the West.

Again, let's chill last year, yet without Soto last year, the padres of the best record through 50 game that's reminisce the play on finding his own record, I mean no it's really hard to win is hard to win consistently, not even on the padres off the next night and the next day right of the Rockies. It's hard to win consistently so the padres of done is they've on paper put themselves in a spot where I don't think it's crazy that the padres when one of the next three World Series there now all the hats always ivory Rogers by the weather And 1/2 south but Kershaw's back heard the are you are you saying the pot letters were on the other two half open the wildcard search we have of the wildcard there in the wildcard in the latke right now and you see them plod probably over time playing better baseball down the stair World Series odds cut in half because of the Soto tray there like 2022 to one before there now to lend the water and when and by the way, you know, it would be amazing. It would be amazing to see that anyways he would be amazing and that I think it's overlying for the Dodgers is, there was a world where they just ran away with this division didn't really work on stuff right and I think the padres will have to like light a fire. They gotta make sure that like me make the Dodgers better I think so. I think it's Dodgers will the Dodgers will get caught if they just cannot believe their own press club and got Diane how to get to tease back and have him back doing touch these things getting that done this without to tease and basically without Soto when could he potentially get back to we think what it will were in it worry he's it's supposed to be August. They took some BP. I think earlier this right, yeah, he's like I'm actually swinging he's the most fun player. He's like so young he so would you like he should be the face of baseball cumbersome to me for not one Soto shouldn't. I want it so funny because but just on like to tease is a better ambassador for the game yet runs in Soto's good at kind of the things that the East Coast doesn't appreciate about Mike Trout that the numbers like I think Soto's career on base percentage is like 427 that's like Trish speaker icon better than Mickey Mantle. That's that's like 15 spots better than Mike Trout you like it's morning were 28 God I love you got rightness at batting stance guy on Instagram at batting stance guy on tick-tock.

Follow him on the hotel he's amazing about the tick-tock cement he was. He was design chemically engineered for tick-tock and then on Twitter at batting stance G's book is a love letter to baseball. It's so great.

I migrated and just incredible. I love you dude. I highly recommend people go online and watch his appearance on David Letterman.

It wasn't as fun as this, but you are making a letter McCracken up the whole time you're the best, will take a break will come back we'll talk live golf this is racecar for the franchise and on Peacock.

Welcome back everybody Randy Sklar filling in for Rich Eisen which is in Canton. I believe for the Hall of Fame induction's which is awesome.

I spent many a summer in Canton as a youth never going to the football Hall of Fame concert that was too cheap, which is now like I fall into all of those things like welcome home in my just my entire family is like sweating dogs are panting and the like. Can we please turn on the air. I like it's only 89 and 95. Upstairs in our house, so I totally have become the person willing to show that is out on. If you for all the fans of cheap seats okay fans are like. I want you to bring back cheap seats.

I really want to do it.

We have not find found the right place to do it until now. UFC fight past the first episode is up for free on you Caesar you to pay to be go to our Instagram at Sklar Brothers we have the link in our bio you can watch the first episode of the nosebleeds is fantastic. It's cheap seats, but for old weird UFC footage. I love it so much I guest appearances by John Hamm Andy Richter Tony Emmy award-winning Tony Hale from the addresses development Sarah Tiant of the great Sarah Asiana makes an appearance in one of the sketches Rob Cordry it's so the sketches and it's us Cimino breaking down this footage Brenda Fitzgerald who will have later on the show an hour to he does a fantastic thing that I should Brockman earlier.

It's all good stuff like I want talk about the live golf think as we teased it a little bit before we run a ton of time here, but like you read Brockman of the stuff coming out of the lawsuit. So just to set it up so the live golfers while the they go in and I'll be clear up front.

The way I feel about it but I'm confused. We talked about this air I'm confused about it. The live golf experiment. If you want to call it is 100%.

The Saudi government trying to sports wash the brutal killing of an American journalist. That's what it is we have to speak it out loud. I feel that way. That is my opinion that's a lot of people's opinion and if you're going to take millions and millions and millions of dollars to know that it's your saying my reputation as a golfer is now going to help people be like they're not so bad right they have. Pat said they have Patrick have Sergio. The how could they be such a bad way.

Minister Woodley Westwood will use hazing. They have these people use hazing to me sounds like a very Yiddish phrase of like when you're playing golf and you completely miss it if you like those you have a guy go up so you know those guys. That's what I believe that they're doing but then of course I'm confused because guys like David Verdi who I love so much you I would literally go to the mat for all that he is one of my favorite people in all sports leaves.

I was he at CBS that he was at CBS and then leaves to go in and join the live call and I don't know what to do with that. I really don't Brockman I don't know what to do with that because I love the guy I want to find out more about it, but like every comes at the same thing about Charles Barkley Markley was flirting with live last week like we love these guys, we've known than they been in our lives for so long and then what we do, how are we supposed to feel when they jumped to this other tour to like you said, take money to help you know this government help to divert attention from a terrible thing that it is like hey don't pay attention to this, but were doing golf and were now look at all these so it might look at the cool private jet were taken, Mike. I don't mean so it's like you just I and and by the way number no tradition of it as soon as Jack Nicholas that I won't be the face of it, you knew Tiger wasn't going to write because what was Tiger care only about is chasing Jack Nicholas. That's it. Now that's the only thing he really cares about is I want to 18 major that's all he cares eight at so anyway this lawsuit. You know came out this week and it cut golf.com publish this article about some of the surprising things that were revealed in it hundred and five pages so they went to read and cut a comb through yet all that. But yeah, you know not everyone who's involved with live's is in the lawsuits are is only 11 golfers Mickelson and Bryson to Shambaugh or two of the biggest names yeah along with the Abraham answer and Taylor Gooch or Jeff Young will come up with you having guys one of the big revelations.

I was at Phil was suspended by the tour. A lot of people didn't know that they were speculating he did not play a gust of this year, people wondering why was he just taking time off when I let you know, the heat died down but know he was. He was assented to by the tour right now for two years because he played in the in the London event. That's kind of a big thing to come out so so the thing of it is is writing to Shambaugh actually agreed to join the live torrents February yeah and then later got pressure to put out a statement saying that he was pledging allegiance to the PGA tour, which was not true at all which was like reading like a hostage statement hello, I am pledging allegiance to, I mean it's either pulling quotes from guys from three, four years ago about how unique and special and exclusive the PGA tour is gotta help prove their point, and then add the end of the day were still waiting to see what Augustine national is going to do that if they demand these guys from playing in the Masters next year, then you know we know it's not going. I mean it's like if you're it's it's we don't have a couple second-tier but it's it it's like if you were you you cheat on your wife with a mistress who is now your sugar mama and then you want to sue your wife are making you sleep on the couch and that's essentially what this feels like, listen top of our two we've got Adam rank working to talk a little football and fantasy will do that. Top of our to everybody but I would say this, I would say this about the live golf is that you really don't have a leg to stand on it and Tiger said it when he said you know there's no.

What's the incentive to to win tournaments and to get better when you arty have the money that you find through bag. I work my short game I putting needs work. I'm chasing records and chasing legacy with live golf there is none of that is not nothing you're not. There are no there isn't like the you know San Antonio classic that's just started that your like no one really cares if you've wanted several years around. There's no history but like winning the Masters and when US open IBC. The U.S. Open anybody complain about like winning the Masters winning the PGA. Those are things that if you do that a sermonic time people judge you by the mazelike tennis they judge you by your grand slams they judge you by your majors and you know they're great golf that's it so funny that Greg Norman would be the guy to lead live because he was the guy that lost so many majors I and he won a couple British Open and and by the way that's amazing, but it like Norman just seems like that guy. Norman's a guy who like he's like an older guy who works out a lot at the gym I Mike I saw like a picture of Norman my keys to jacked his shredded.

He's too old to be that Jackson something you're not caring about something in part of it was your relation with Chris Everett but I mean like you're working out too much. You got a lot of aggression and now that aggression is going towards the PDN is a long time be for the PGA tour is this dates back 25 years he's been trying to start a rival league and now it's finally got the funding brought it obvious he terrible individual so yeah I mean and so I just I again the crazy thing is seeing guys that you love and respect, making this jump over there that makes it a confusing thing for you because you like Naumann a really tough spot because all support David 30 where everything goes. I just will and is is and I can't like Paulino Gretzky's Instagram post anyone. What are the valleys going to do with that unit. Tell her to put clothes on you at put more clothes on.

Because that fits with who are said what our society as you commit to the curb. Paulino Gretzky called the great one and ask him how that went for him. He's been trying to do it since she was 12 years old. You can't do it asking to be interesting thing can the Saudi's control Dustin Johnson's wife. I have no idea. There is so much to talk about really get to the cowboy stuff later TJ I promise you got Adam rank on the other side and then Brenda Fitzgerald is Randy Sklar filled in for rich eyes on the rich Eisen show NBC sports and on Sirius XM 85 will see after the break for the real story behind some of wrestling's biggest moments.
