Hello and welcome to Card Talk on National Public Radio with us clicking

collect the Tappet Brothers and we're broadcasting this week from the South

lawn of Card Talk Plaza where the final round of the Tappet Brothers

Invitational Croquet Classic is about to be won by my brother Tommy now if

there's a swing and oh holy cow he missed the ball completely and buried that

mallet into his left ankle oh let's get some reaction from this year's loser

oh my f**k oh yes folks it's the agony of defeat for poor Tommy what is the

thrill of victory for this year's champ quasi-hot-a-motivate congratulations quasi I

liked all you did that you know that they why don't they whisper why don't they

whisper these invitations well now that you mentioned I want to rant and

rave about something it'll only take a moment yeah great you we want to have a

rant and rave episode I realized that today we don't have a rant well this is

just a rant and rave episode a lot of offense at golf being called a sport

because of the best of my knowledge every sport that there is allows fan

participation to the extent that they can cheer and boo except that the fans are

not allowed to participate in that to that extent in golf matches because they

have to have silence yeah I mean why doesn't wow why doesn't a picture Ben Hogan

still play yeah well Ben Hogan the other day lines up his butt yeah I mean

baseball players I mean a picture has to have as much concentration the

better the ball the better stealing in the batter's boss 50,000 people of

screaming and the pictures throwing the ball a hundred miles and I will maybe

at his head yeah and he manages to swing that bat and produce like I think golf
