Summary

In an episode that will be known as Brendan's "Flu Game," Andy and Brendan recap a meaningful week of fall golf that left men's winners in tears following their wins. Andy is excited that he drove through Moore County, North Carolina without receiving a speeding ticket, unlike at the U.S. Open. After a "Nico Echavarria Minute" to start the golf talk, the two discuss Rory McIlroy's win in Abu Dhabi, his sixth DP World Tour season-long title, tying Seve Ballesteros. Rory was deeply emotional following the win, looking back at his year that contained four worldwide wins and now the order of merit victory for the DP World Tour. The ten DP World Tour players that secured PGA Tour cards are also set, with "The Great" Manassero and Rasmus Højgaard headlining the newcomers. Next up is Swag Sports Minute, where Brendan unboxes the latest "Mystery Bx" drop from Swag Golf. Andy is disappointed in the Bears following another loss to the Packers, but sees positives in Caleb Williams's performance. PJ's Jets struggled again, as known golfer Ahmad Gardner could not tackle yet another receiver headed toward the end zone. The golf talk gets back on track with a wrap up of the Butterfield, won by Rafael Campos. Nelly Korda won again at The Annika, leading to a debate on whether Pelican Golf Club should "Nelly-proof" the course ahead of next year. To finish things up, Andy and Brendan touch on the news of President-Elect Donald Trump playing a round with Jay Monahan this weekend before sitting next to Yasir Al-Rumayyan at Saturday night's UFC event.

0:51.9	I'm on the hot spot, hoping this holds up in a fancy hotel room,
0:56.9	not fancy internet, though. I mean, I don't think you can consider that the hotel room is
1:02.9	not fancy unless you have strong internet. You can do all the accouturements, but you need internet.
1:08.9	You need the actual guts of the thing to work, in my opinion.
1:12.3	You can't label it fancy. You know, they got nice mince on the pillow or something, high-end
1:17.0	mince and they're like, no, just make me internet. I'm not even at a fancy hotel, but having a hotel

1:31.8	reveal my location, although people will probably know with the smallest amount of digging where

1:49.1	it's unacceptable i'm on hot spot you're very pixelated so all right i almost called to the
