Summary

It’s Presidents Cup Week! Andy and Brendan get into this early fall team match play windfall, but first there’s some football chatter about Bert trying to stir things up in Happy Valley. Then they get to a wide-ranging chat on the Presidents Cup, including the current state of the competition, how it gets a bad, or deserved, rap, and how it could be improved or if it needs changing at all. Then they get into some of the rosters, storylines, potential for drama, and amusing tidbits about the host venue, Royal Montreal. They make some picks to win, picks to flop, and highest potential points earners. They also relay some of their favorite P-Cup memories. Lastly, it’s a special week for the pod as their longtime friends and partners at B.Draddy and Zero Restriction are outfitting both teams, so they catch up with Billy Draddy to chat about creating the uniforms for each team and some of the captains’ and players’ feedback.
