    Season 2, Full Swing just dropped. Looks even better.

    They hit the jackpot with the June 6 merger fiasco plus a Ryder Cup year. It's a good watch.

    He's the main swimming call for the Olympics. And he was just bumped up to Notre Dame football play-by-play, so he's not going anywhere.

    Like a two-car parade, NBC screws everything up and shocking that Sam Flood seems to be at the center of all of it.

    I count 12 players on LIV Golf who would still be relevant if they had stayed on the PGA Tour, and I'm being generous for a couple of the names -- Ancer, DeChambeau, Gooch, Hatton, D. Johnson, Koepka, Niemann, Pereira, Rahm, Reed, Cam Smith, Varner -- but tell me again how the Tour is a "feeder system" to LIV Golf.

    I mean, Rahm, Koepka, Bryson, Cam and maybe Niemann (eventually) are potentially Top 10/15 players. That's significant, and it's quickly making golf into tennis, where only four events matter.

    I was referring to him being happy that his broadcast career is over. Not sure how you took that as besmirching the Tour ffs.

    Yep. Look at the winners of U.S. events so far this year:
    Clark
    Dunlap
    Eckroat
    Kirk
    Knapp
    Matsuyama
    Murray
    Pavon
    Taylor
    They could all walk as a group down Broadway at noon and only Matsuyama and maybe Clark would be stopped for an autograph or selfie.
    I didn't go double-check this, but one of my local sportscasters said yesterday there are 69 players in this week's Arnold Palmer Invitational. If true, that's awful.
