I don't have Augusta National.
I have Tate's Creek.
Or I have Augusta on virtual.
Going Tate's Creek real, then.
It's tough if you don't hit fairways.
Please bring me out there.
Let's go to the backlash that LeBron James is facing right now.
He was in a YouTube golf video over the past week and angered many NBA fans and people in the city of Memphis, Tennessee.
He had some negative comments.
He said, quote, I'm bleeping 41 years old.
You think I want to do that bleep being in Memphis on a random Thursday?
He went on to criticize the local hotels in Memphis that many NBA players stay at and suggested the franchise should move to Nashville.
Since he made those comments, other NBA players like Jeff Teague have come out in support of the hate of Memphis.
A YouTuber, GFed, who normally sneaks into stadiums, did a review of the hotels since and has given a lot of publicity to the story, including the mayor getting involved and the entire city.
When asked about it, LeBron doubled down with the media, saying Milwaukee and Memphis are two places that he doesn't want to live.
Yeah, I think it was unfair to people that work at that hotel.
