" Welcome back doesn't Kelly and a battery you a couple of name's Jerry tell me these people are no cheating no looking ease up on that is me drugs that is now he'll just Heitmann and -- figure I'd seen him -- believability in Normandy keeper and after computer screen. It's. -- usually. Armada. Gregory board B Taylor -- swing man Danny Chia. Alexander Norton Ewan Porter change big lamb like that when -- being I -- Martin -- goal. You ocean no but took a -- and Jonathan -- Moss. You know there weren't like guys are you tell you that Rick Reilly's not get him."

" Arts field. I'm guessing because they heard you earlier ran that it's the these some of the contenders in the British oh that's. Which starts Thursday at the old all these guys supporting common nobody knows they are these guys have become Tiger Woods brad Faxon Kenny -- not none of them are not decimated via the Faxon and tiger of course hurt. Kenny Perry just as Monica fly all the oil over there. I don't know I have mixed feelings about that madness -- that many more chances the majors 47. Points -- some. Now on to its left when major -- thank you take part in them. It Pete and think -- can win doesn't it suits his game like him it's not his right defeat if he doesn't feel the romance if it's really not there for him it is for something as facts in the well liable he's going to go to Milwaukee win again and -- won three in six weeks. Can make a million bucks in Milwaukee mean nothing and bring in veteran and -- why should go to jail. What should go through the motions -- the pressure of of the golfing public you know if he did -- moment if you reluctantly went over and -- Joba. They would boom in the and they wouldn't they wouldn't want to win."

" You know that he gives between five and 10% of his earnings every year to scholarship funds for kids in the county from which he comes in Kentucky's of the go to college. So without as a background. And and and you know of the winnings being part of his scholarship money does he go to Burke dale and make -- not let -- well I'll just -- a half a mil."

" By all accounts he's like the greatest great guy like -- golf course you know let's golf she lets people play on it right in which is unusual. And just that a -- out of a guy and everybody around him. I'm not going to hold that against him that he doesn't get swept up yeah hold the romance of being on the old so."

" But I will say this we arguing are we are seeing the very first chapter of evidence and it went one for about a year now all of the interest in -- The the notoriety of even a major as interesting as the British Open always it is being. Off the charts and negligible. Without the presence of I was he obviously I these ridiculous debates you know on part in a -- around the horn is tiger's dominance good for the game of golf are getting. Did you know the British Open was coming up -- now I mean I don't -- that he didn't like. -- was -- one of -- times in the paper -- right it's it's two days from ninth the Tigers checked out you know like a month ago and we have no virtually no able to be -- wake up Saturday and Sunday morning. To pay attention to because it's visually different."

" It's not on Thursday Friday along I mean I'll. Certainly pay -- Sunday. Whether I heard of the contenders and I don't want to approaching being -- and a -- in the land might like that there's a big arm but he used something like that's ludicrous question is. Tiger's doesn't dominate. Every minute of every tournament. Is generally some competition he just beat them if he won every tournament like twenty shot isn't in Sunday was a walk over. The back -- than it was a walk over you might say this is the notes tiger -- But there's always someone right there with it was it dull. Watching him against Rocco in the US so I don't know he won he dominated double regional -- 11. Of the 2000 that was an aberration -- it was almost fascinating because it was so dominant if that happened every week QB like. You know watching whatever Josh Shelton and don't want to get as good as all the white guys outside watching. -- Federer. An adult -- that wasn't dominant but you know I mean yeah clutch guy dominate. Edwin Moses and comedies or whatever why bother watching he's going to win -- you know feel that way about you know it was a lot. Is generally someone breathing down his neck -- and credit every story not just -- challenges different almost deals on the watch and grind Mickelson does it's devastating if you're golf he won in Sergio win this weekend you want. Adam Scott the going wrong in the way Kenny Perry's call or run into dynamic -- here economic. Exactly exactly now. By the way back and you'd love to see Mickelson -- run get on he's he's done this is the whole place for him yeah."

" And by the way if if you're somebody who's running the Deutsche bank for example the TPC and you looking at the lack of response and lack of interest or even -- ability. -- And a happy picture that we're -- ball -- the wheels off the wagon. But he said this gives an opportunity for other people to rise -- ascend -- the road and and have people discover the stardom -- but the people. And I understand this is his job to say that but you know it's it's you know just."

" same it's not and you can rise to the for a moment the from the -- can rise to prominence by just contending with tiger easier. That you can by winning yeah Rocco at one. The field -- the field didn't include tiger. And -- won the US open but he wouldn't get nearly every cut for finishing sack that tiger particularly in area -- and nineteen -- the whole lot about buying a Kenny Perry fat. Nobody called fat things that stat -- all in this is Kenny Perry suddenly hot lately Yorker's money you made but most people. -- he could you pick Kenny -- line if you walked and right now you know he was. Who's going to boring main India born personal white forehead though he's got a weird swing he's he's been nothing there's nothing charismatic by now nothing and you you right here in the stores -- very charitable. Who cares mean that that means nothing to the networks that are trying to get -- eyeballs and -- and and."

" I can't even think I mean I I I guess if if somehow Sergio. Seize this moment. I'm not even sure if Phil were able to seize this moment that would in any way narrow the gap or increase the interest in you know the PGA download -- Phil's got."

" Care charisma he's a little crazies a big gambler -- And it could go on the course personalities smile and commitment eight yeah Sergio I think is get -- charisma. I'm not sure like this them not doing Sean O'Hair. -- doesn't mean -- thing. It should on he would be bad for golf yet they're boring and slow -- especially to here's."

" Like here's why I don't think and I said this yesterday and fax email me to task for this Phil Mickelson is not going to win. Another major in his career and here's why first to ball. Looking -- history. He has gotten his ass kicked on a regular basis and and always won majors but he's got his ass kicked in a regular basis by tiger who by Tigers admission. Has had a bad knee for the better part of ten or eleven months has been playing on one like part of a broken for after this time. And and has continually win win head to head with tiger melts in the face of the presence that is Tiger Woods now he's got a short window of opportunity here and he's not playing very well."

" I'm not short mean Kenny Perry's. Eleven years older than him he's got two more majors or Tigers back. Yeah okay that you want -- would be totally again on majesty jitters in the with tiger in the field Bryan majors now. I think he'll win another made I don't tube but in going to be this one I don't think it when the British. Mean he is not a novice prize not a bump and run guys not. Playing in the wind in the Kohl is not his so."

" Like all of golfers that we have watched this guy just just lapped the -- the field you know like like the canyon -- past not -- and that that's empirical Braves couple weekends ago. And he's been doing on one leg what the hell happens when he comes back physically fit a 100%. Game intact and and and -- ago."

" He wins a -- he when he does one win every week now he has and win every major someone else says the win them and they -- and all going to be these anonymous. You know nobody's who rise up in the big case in the case of the going to be shut -- and superstars going to be the next superstar and name him well. You know why don't because he -- his car at congressional or whoever does he wants because they think he has the -- began on fourth game -- personnel floors that Scott. It certainly Harrison got will win. Enough answer differently in years now and Albert as he pleases -- is time. Could be I mean he's he's physically fit like -- yeah -- does Adam Scott has not won a major he won the the beat him in the that the college when the fifth major -- I think in with 217. All the players him when the players championship. And contended in -- Sergio you do you think -- go win a major. Yes got twenty years to do veterans -- hundred chance right. -- when Mays got except you know image better having Phil Mickelson will get worse pulled forward let milk -- Mickelson will still have the talent to have that one big day one week and he's proven he can do it in the clutch the US open tiger looks -- on the practice tee on Sunday how many went how many majors for the one. War. And one to. Them bastards. Didn't and let's open the PGA almost -- Once it. You don't think he'll have a big weekend with tiger in the field and win on the made in the next ten years correct wanna just only gives it -- Well he's -- program has. And he's done he's -- with tiger in the field as drastic decision tiger and that was -- he was the most talent guy to never have won. A major and he's done that now. If -- again and again. Look at Phil's records him teammate when he's won two masters and believed it was in the feeble minds. One's -- in his group. Attribute the backward -- this woman there will be -- line in the gallery and connect. 6777950. Toll free 888525. Sports Illustrated is a big. Oh from the agency the latest sports stories that you may -- more illustrated. Mile cover of sports illustrate dual autograph of --"

" Oh it's been awhile since that means. That. Where they now issue -- interestingly. Yet -- Alex cares Anna Kournikova Willie Mays is the big feature do you live one defeat -- they get a bunch of lesser lights pretty interest story vote. John Carlos Thomas -- Mexico City 1968 -- them where they don't like each other each other -- ET as one of the where they now. They -- we have to -- about holding his golf tournament -- would be as he has he's planning and beat these. So was -- three at the PGA in two masters. And believed was an almost feels bill Rogers weighs one in the world they we're 2. Here might -- well right they they get to Mike Green. And green need. Mike Green well says he's bitter about 1988. But when he talks about it he doesn't start with the fact that he was runner up to MVP Jose Canseco. Was admitted to steroid use. He starts with the Boston Globe reporter who called him a heck. Quote I was from the country and I wore jeans and cowboy -- as green well. And someone said it was so dumb I named my -- ball because I couldn't spell Bob. Now. The went nuts on Bob Bryan for that yet and it wasn't Ryan it was me and I had to go up in Colombia -- at the wrong guy -- he's he was man we talked about it. Noticed the joke you know just kidding but he still say in the low and he still says. Hello. And so my lines that animal -- that's kind of motivated him yeah yeah now he talks about his fortune as -- fortune he tells the stories looking Allen's 15000 square foot. Riverside plot in Fort Myers where he is the general contractor on -- multi million dollar dream home. For him and his wife. They have you'll have ponds. Indoor water fountains. And in the Infiniti edge blow. For a dumb country boy I've done okay says green. He doesn't necessarily want his MVP but he wants who has dated him give it back his NC I want it. By the Eagles beat an alum once was enough. So that was good that. I can have a better form it's I mean I know it's it kind of rhetorical question is -- really sunk that -- he only made five grand forget is that it yet. You think you could like dunking Booth with people throw things that emit more than that -- the most lawyer was in the 350000. Yes. And he does this for five -- right oh so Jose and taken some seventy more of these fights are always let grieve and yes."

" Yeah that we -- Bremen on the other way he'll be more embarrassing and having little by the team. Kick the crap out of Jose Canseco was a look at the background -- the crowd that -- there were more people to Brett -- rally outside Lambeau in the listening US out there he can't sell blocks in -- just doesn't work now looks like practice yet you know looks like a lot of with the stars. -- He's not good Murton wasn't available. They want I. Mean look at the out of -- and where they are now just open this could that the guys are sick in the you know Alex Harris and the -- and Johnson -- big bloated and Johnson. She got that hole Douglas. Busted kind of thought possible on Douglas asked the police -- him out there and took a wicked sick and couldn't some weakness. Suter Danny Bonaduce was so we don't saved by the -- Troy. Connecticut -- you five bucks bucks get paid 5:5 grand -- five the -- the woman and a woman. -- if if if he was willing to embarrass himself like this for 5000 bucks once he turned out."

" Not much and -- and apparently it's funny some of these guys like in this where they -- thing. They asked for money and Johnson as for an interview. In his -- is agency justice to do for free. The says that's not going to happen -- responded can you please buy him an ice cream and a look at and Johnson now. -- that a few ice creams and that's only charges that to meet -- and talked to him about -- past then -- on regular expeditious. Get him a blizzard and -- we talked all today."
