Now he's leaning on his left side. I just want to make you as uncomfortable as possible. Okay.
Well, I know you guys are choosing Rory, but I'm going to go with Scotty Scheffler, number one pick. I don't think he's going to win, but for the first two days, yes. That's my pick.
I asked our good friend Chad GPT to help me on this. And I asked, what if you were Cousin Sal but successful? At betting? At betting, especially when it comes to the Masters. And what would be the best long shot shot? I sort of did, and it also helped me with alliteration. So we got Scotty Scheffler, and we're going to Sepp Straka. Oh, nice. Who finished 16th last year. We saw him today.
Great approach shots. He looked good. And I'm trying to make Cousin Sal look good.
He was listening more than talking.
No, no, I don't think he was intently. Listen, this was a real highlight of my day because I didn't know that you were such a golf lunatic. Oh, I'm a lunatic. And number two, I kept on walking in front of you guys with Sally here, and I kept on telling Sally, like, This is insane. Yeah. Because you spoke nonstop, relentlessly. This is not a compliment, baby.
Describe your entire golf history of how far you would hit every club in your bag at different ages of your life.
How do you know that House was enjoying listening to this?
I can't express how I felt truly because I didn't know I'd feel embarrassment on that hole because you said you were going to do it. And I didn't think you were going to do it with Cam, but you did. And it was embarrassing, quite frankly, for you. Yeah. And us, because we were there. I wasn't embarrassed at all.
Now I knew you weren't joking that you were really going to talk to Rory because you have had interactions.
Not today.
Who is he playing with? I can't remember. Amateur, I believe. And he hits a bomb of a drive on 18. To Bill's credit, he got us to look at how narrow and how stressful it is to actually play 18. The TV doesn't really do it justice.
And it's 18. Yeah. And Roy bombs his drive right down the middle, 300 plus. And, you know. You say you're going to talk to Rory and you have like this prime spot as he's going to walk past. Yes. And I had to turn my back to you. We backed off and gave him. We backed off. Like it was a yo mama fight or something. Let me give you some space, baby. I just couldn't see this car crash.
Thank you. You have to try. Failure is not enough. You just got to try. You don't know what you're going to get. Baby doll magic is just not being afraid. That's it.
Somehow you just let it be known that you were a board member of Wake Forest right off the bat. Absolutely. Which had nothing to do with the conversation at all.
Why did I bring that up? No, I'm like, you're right.
There's one more baby doll. There are actually so many baby doll stories. It's been a true joy getting to spend the day. It's only been one day. It just is amazing. It feels like Christmas. What's this going to be? So you disappeared quite often. You got in trouble for smoking cigarettes. That was also a highlight. Okay. Fair enough. Yeah. But the real highlight was you disappeared.
And I think amongst the five of us, we're like... what's going on here? Why are you not here? And you come back and we all had to sort of eat crow because you bought us all hats.
And then it was worth the wait. Can you describe what happened?
It was worse than my wife.
And we're talking to some fans of...
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
golf to appreciate it.
What are you talking about? Number one. On the course. I mean, on the course. But for those that don't know, Sal is not a big drinker. Right. And the fact that he started the day with the Bloody Mary, I was like, this is an auspicious sign. It's going to be a good week. Number one. Two, he ate a lot of food. Thank you. It was disgusting. Thank you. And then I hit the course. Yeah.
You ate a pimento cheese sandwich, and I knew you were full. I knew you were disgustingly full. Right. But you still wolfed it down. I was like, this guy is bringing your A game. Yeah.
People need to know the food here is amazing. It's affordable. You could buy 12 beers for $12. Where could you do that anywhere else?
What else? BLT. It's the Masters Club, which is like a BLT. I mean, that sounds great.
I think it's important we got to back this up for those that haven't been to the Masters. What kind of rules that we're talking about protocol? It's not just a cell phone. There's no running. There's no talking loudly. These are all things that he's broken. There's no smoking in undesignated areas. Broke that rule. There's no acts of, I won't say physical violence, but you can't like,
Like, do things that... You have to be on your best behavior, basically.
So, like, every rule that the Masters has, baby doll bro.
We're trying to be on our best behavior, but clearly, Cousin Sal's incapable of that.
And I don't know if people understand the long history you have of playing practical jokes and hijinks on Babydoll. Yeah. Like, I've heard stories of you throwing a suitcase out the window, luggage out of buildings.
It was a shopping bag of all the new purchases that Babydoll just bought. Yeah. and you just threw it.
Right. Yeah.
I don't know if people realize, they're long-time listeners, but This relationship is real. Like your impersonation, like I haven't spent this much time with Babydoll in my life. But everything you've done over the years, I've heard thousands of impersonations. They're very accurate.
You guys have this weird odd couple relationship.
Have you tortured Chang or are you still feeling afraid? I'm afraid. I give him as much respect as I can because I live in a constant state of fear that I'm going to get fucked with to some degree because I've seen it. I don't want to be on the receiving end.
I told him I was going to do that if he fucked with me yesterday.
And then he put me in a weird, awkward position when he complimented a colleague of ours, a friend of ours that works at a network and we love him very much and you didn't know who he was. And then I've never felt this way before. He's like, you don't know this, but David was singing your praises. And it was going on and on and on about all the compliments I was talking about this guy.
And I still would have felt weird. I didn't know what to do.
Who do you know better, Rory McIlroy or Barack Obama? Do you call Barack Barry? That's how well you know him? Of course not. Nobody calls him. Of course not.
It's very true. I was just emulating my hero right here. And I think it's a good story today. I didn't realize I was talking to almost a rival agent of yours and he confided to me because I didn't know who he was. I'd love to smoke a dart with Babydoll one day.
He's right over there in that rocking chair. Why don't you knock yourself out?
We were smoking a lot of butts with a lot of people the past week. Yes. So it's been an honor.
Yeah, hold on. Yeah, let's guess.
You never know. This is it. But he's short, right? Yeah, he's like my height.
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Stupid gnomes. You wanted the gnomes badly.
In our bet, I'd pick Scheffler and Straka, and Straka's like third from last place. Yeah, stay with Straka.
Plus six. Oh, God. Epic comeback. This is going to be a movie that you're going to be able to represent. Baby, the match. Here we go.
I do, and I think it is. For a consistent basis, not a one-off. It's not like an underdog that reaches the Super Bowl because this is like Disneyland for adults. My excitement every time... I said this today. We're getting into the gates, and I was like, this is what my kids feel like going to Disneyland. Yes. And I hate everything after a while. I'm not... You're happy every day, right?
Yeah, I'm so happy, and... You don't even have to like golf to have a good time here. The food's great. This felt like a college road trip this week. And this is the guy that went for the first time. What do you think?
We're all on our best behavior, right?
But we've been told all these stories this week about players being so nervous because of the history, too. So it just makes it such a special place.
I would probably put it up there. Yeah, for sure. I would be a no-brainer. I'm going to do it.
Yeah.
And everyone's getting a gnome.
And you haven't played the course. I have not. Baby, we got to get, we got to remedy this.
