Summary

It’s Victory Monday! For Brendan, at least. Andy has fewer nice things to say about his football teams and is ready to maybe check out on the Bears season. Then they move to tennis, which had its great final completely overshadowed by the opening Sunday in the NFL and maybe should take a page out of the FedEx Cup. An ad read for a new sponsor leads to some Irish Open chatter on the weather, Rory’s four balls in the water, and the Candyman’s ascent. There’s a segment on the USA’s big scouting trip to Rome over the weekend, where 9 of the 12 team members made it. Does it matter much for the actual Cup? Are people going to overreact to the ones who did not make the trip? The LPGA event leads to a side chat on Lexi’s awful year and upcoming Solheim Cup. The Champions Tour chat is more of an occasion to react to some interesting Ernie Els comments on technology leading to swing speeds that are not sustainable if you want to stay healthy. They close with a random flashback to the 2000 NFL Draft.

0:00.0	Now the shotgun's starting, there's a lot of set-up work that we have to do in order to make
0:07.2	a tournament work. So I'm going to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a shotgun start here.
0:30.0	How are we doing? Brandon, I'm a, it's not Victory Monday, we sound disgruntled.
0:43.9	Brutal weekend for my football teams. Just awful, awful weekend. Illinois lost Friday
0:53.2	night at the Kansas. Was that, did that ever get close? I was not really paying attention to that.
0:58.2	It didn't seem like it was close. And then Chicago Bears, I had on Red Zone a lot.
1:07.3	It seemed pretty ugly. It was kind of maybe going to become a game and then it quickly was not a game,
1:13.2	pick six, things like that. Yeah, looked, looked, looked like a rough go, especially against
1:19.5	the Packers, this post Rogers era, at home. It looked like a rough go. But your Panthers, your
1:26.8	Panthers got the L. That's the game within the game. You've got, you've got got two teams. I mean,
1:31.9	now the game within the game is we might have the first and second. I don't know if that's ever
1:38.6	been done before, but we are. I don't want to overreact. I don't want to overreact to one game.
1:46.1	But it doesn't look good. They might be bad. They have no offensive or defense lineman. They just
1:55.6	got, they got their asses kicked all game long. It was terrible. It was horrible to watch. I was
2:04.0	really, you know what made it made me really upset. My wife and daughter were going to the pool
2:11.2	and they're like, oh, do you want to come? And they just scored. They just scored a vacant like a
2:16.7	12 point game. I was like, no, you guys go. Like, you know, 40 seconds later after they vacate,
2:26.1	cream based scores. And I'm like, what am I doing? What am I? And then they just run it up.
2:32.6	Just was so upset. It was so mad that they ruined my afternoon. Oh, you really took it hard,
2:39.4	huh? I didn't take it hard. We were really just sucks when you know your team stinks at the
2:46.0	beginning of the year. Well, you know, it's you can check out. It's great. I've been doing this
2:50.7	for 20 years. You don't have to be, you don't have to have to worry about your heartbeat broken.
