Chapter 1: What happened at the Masters involving Jose Luis Ballester?
Chapter 2: What is the controversy around upside down hats at Augusta?
The Masters have been canceled.
Somebody has peed in Rays Creek.
Yes. Jose Luis Ballester. has completely desecrated this tournament he's an amateur he wore an upside down hat arizona state arizona state which is i mean it's perfect that an arizona state person would do that yeah and then he peed he peed under the bridge in hole 13 and i for one am disgusted ray's creek now i think the problem i think people have a problem with this because he admitted it
My guess is that this is like swimmers peeing in the pool. I think everybody pees in Rays Creek. We just don't talk about peeing in Rays Creek.
So I don't know if he admitted it because everyone saw it. He got a round of applause when he finished. So he said it was his biggest round of applause all day. But I just love that this is the prevailing story from the first round of the Masters. This young whippersnapper amateur just causing havoc because he was golfing in Scotty Scheffler's group peeing.
in rivers, wearing upside-down hat, which I actually think the peeing I have zero problem with, obviously. I kind of agree with people who are like, the upside-down hat at Augusta is bullshit.
It's beneath Augusta? Yeah. In his defense, he was probably hammered. Yeah. If you're an Arizona State golfer and you play at the... I assume that you're just taking full advantage of the car girl.
Yeah.
Just being like, keep the rounds coming. Yeah, let's go. I love it. If you're a guy that maybe might not get back to Augusta... Mm-hmm. Then I say go ahead and pee in there. Just be yourself? Be yourself. Pee yourself. The one thing is you probably shouldn't say pee. That's probably one of those words that Augusta won't let you say. They probably are like the golfer eliminated into Rays Creek.

Chapter 3: What are the latest updates on Luka Doncic's return to Dallas?
Chapter 4: What is the significance of Luka’s tribute video and fan reactions?
I saw you had an awesome shot from behind a tree right onto the green.
Oh, he's one under two.
All right. Max got the weather faster than Hank. Significantly faster. Weather looks perfect. Perfect. That does look good.
17 mile an hour winds?
Okay, that's fine.
Hank probably uses a specific golf app for the weather that has the weather inside of it somewhere.
Overnight, it's going to rain, which is good. Soft green. So, Hank, when you said the weather.
That might have been an earlier in the week forecast.
It feels like you're not locked into the Masters.

Chapter 5: What are the rumors and updates about TJ Watt and Deshaun Watson?
I love it.
Like, actual, they're going to be doing crazy, crazy dunks.
I love it. And, I mean, there's nothing better than KFC, and there's nothing better than Dunk It Bucket. Nothing better. So go check it out now. Okay. Other things. Luca, back to Dallas. Tribute video.
Cried. Cried. Has tribute video culture gone too far, Big Cat? Do you think he did not deserve a tribute video? Well, that's the thing. It's like, who deserves a tribute video? Like, when did the tribute video?
No, I'm asking.
I'm saying in the modern era when we're talking about tribute videos, of course Luca does deserve a tribute video. I just don't know when the whole tribute video thing started, when that became a thing.
I think this was, yeah, I mean, I don't think it happens that often.
There's a lot of discourse about the tribute video, though. Okay, so tell me. Well, I remember, was it Isaiah Thomas Jr.?
That one was probably.

Chapter 6: What are the insights on the Denver Nuggets coaching situation and Nikola Jokic’s support?
I don't know. There's some discussion about it. It was funny because our colleague and friend, Jersey Jerry, he's on vacation right now, but I just saw a tweet from him. Oh, my God, not like this or something like that. And I mean, it was like TJ Watt. Something bad happened. But yeah, he posted a cryptic Instagram post that just had the peace sign. So I don't know what's happening.
Please know what he wrote. I immediately knew it was TJ Watt related.
Jerry posted the peace sign. Please know. TJ Watt did not post a picture of the peace sign. Wait, did he? Yeah, TJ Watt did it.
TJ Watt posted an Instagram story of him going peace. Cryptic. There wasn't any words or anything, and then Jerry said, please, no.
He might be out on a little drug trip with Aaron Rodgers and just feeling the peaceful vibe of the universe.
Click the Jerry tweet. That is what T.J. Watt posted on Instagram story. Click that.
Okay.
That's T.J. Watt's Instagram story. So that's what started- So now people are freaking out. All the rumors and everyone freaking out that he might be gone.
Yeah. That's a fair freak out. Fair freak out. I'd be freaking out too.

Chapter 7: Who is Zach Hample and why is he controversial in MLB circles?
At some point during the six-hour meeting that Aaron Rodgers had with the Steelers brass, he definitely asked, are you guys planning on drafting quarterback? If you're six hours, I assume the topic came up once.
40, 41.
That's old as fuck. Too old, right, Hank? Yeah. 40 is washed. Really old. Whoa, washed. Aaron Rodgers is 41 years old.
So, yeah, I think that would be fair for the Steelers to, even if they signed Aaron Rodgers, to be like, hey, we're also going to draft Shador Sanders or we're going to draft somebody else.
Right. So what else? Oh, the Nuggets whole thing. I know we talked about it on Wednesday. Jokic came out and basically said exactly what we thought. He was like, yeah, I'm okay with it. I wasn't disgust. They didn't discuss it with me before, but it is what it is.
Well, then Wendy had a report earlier today. Did you hear that? No. So Wendy's report was kind of what we said about the Memphis Grizzlies situation, which is they didn't like their coach. They wanted to fire him after the season. And what they didn't want is for him to get hot in the playoffs, and then they can't fire him after. I think that's very different from the Grizz situation.
Because Malone won an NBA title. He won you your first championship. If he then comes back and wins a second NBA championship in three years, and your team's never won one before, that is a good thing. No matter what concerns you have about...
his coaching style or whether it's built for long-term success if he wins two in three years you cannot fire right it's i mean it goes to the whole nuggets ownership too like when you have the best player in basketball in his prime uh you should be willing to go over the luxury tax and uh spend a lot of money to try to get more championships yeah not just have one and be like that was good well there there was one clip where i this was from like two weeks ago three weeks ago
where Michael Malone was talking about his players and he said something along the lines of, yeah, you know, we have to go back and, and we'll look at the film. We'll have to show the players of film because they don't watch film, but we'll show it to him. He really like went out of his way. That seemed like there's something wrong.
