What does the “14th hole of life” metaphor reveal about Greg’s current situation?
Chris, I'd like some help here with your father and the entirety of what we're doing, allowing your father publicly to age with grace as a professional sports columnist. Something happened at the end of yesterday's show, and I believe that as the week goes on and as a show goes on, your father's stamina, judgment, some things happen toward the end of the week and toward the ends of shows where he gets a little bit sloppy. Have you noticed this? Because he's Not just the end of the week, end of his life. Whoa, he's working a lot. Towards the end. Thank you. Put the microphone in front of your face.
Thank you for towards the end. I like the 14th hole.
Wow. Where do you think you are, Greg, on the golf course of life? Okay. All right. Two times.
I'm not going to live to be 142. So it's the second nine. Let's see. Where am I going to be? I'm an optimist. I would say 13th or 14th hole.
There you go. That's what I said.
He's on the green. Yeah, I am on the green. But I'm going to five putt just to elongate the whole thing. Attaboy.
I think he's closer to the clubhouse than you guys think he is. Now who's the jerk?
Okay, I know what you're getting at. I misspoke and I said Cleveland Indians instead of Guardians.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa. That's what this is all about.
You're ruining the joke. I wanted to play the sound. Your stamina and your judgment's already off today. Look at what happened at the end of yesterday's show.
Mets at Indians. You couldn't find. You could. Guardians. Guardians. Oh, boy.
Oh, come on. Okay. My bad.
Big deal.
That's it? That's a play on for me. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. For me, too. It wasn't even a St. Louis game, but it's a Cardinal sin. Oh, boy.
Well, it sounds like you realized that that was a mistake that you made. I'm not sitting here trying to castigate you for it. I'm trying to mock you for it, but not castigate you for it. It sounds like in the tone of your voice that you very well realize that you've made a mistake.
Mets at Indians. You couldn't find, you could. Guardians. Or Guardians. Oh, boy.
Oh, come on. Okay. My bad. You sound so annoyed when I correct you. You're like, oh, he doesn't. Like a very dismissive, like, oh, all right.
What are you guys doing? You guys are doing a thing where you're trying. This guy was apologetic. He made an honest mistake. Thank you. Right. And you guys are like, oh, you made a mistake. And now you're trying to put some extra stuff on it. I won't stand for that. You know what it reminds me of? Like, remember, like a couple of years ago, I would say homeless. And Mike would say, it'll call on the house. And Mike would get sold out. I'm like, I'm not kicking a person on the ground and spitting on them. I just use the word that, by the way, I would think that most of them don't give a shit about. because they've got bigger problems than, wait a second, did he call me unhoused or call me homeless? But you guys get on this trip, and Greg, I'm not going to let them do this to you.
Thank you. He made an honest mistake, and then when he realized it, he said, oh, my bad, and you guys want to make a joke out of it. How dare you?
Oh, boy.
How did the Guardians vs. Indians slip‑up spark a debate about sports nicknames?
Thank you, Amin. I also don't think it's age-related, just because I misspeak on a nickname. And Guardian, parenthetically, Guardian's a bad nickname. Okay, Commander's not a particularly favorable nickname. Oh, boy.
Greg, did I ever tell you what the idea I had from a caller one time? It was me and Zach Harbour on Mad Dog Sports Radio. I said, callers, if you have a problem with them changing their name, the Washington football team changing their name, call in and you tell us and we'll hear you out. But I guarantee you there's no legitimate answer you could give. And the first caller said, what if instead of changing the name, they change the mascot to Potatoes? Oh, boy. So now they're the Washington Redskins Potatoes. And we were like, you know what?
What?
You got it. The first caller.
One of the things that just happened there is you said that Greg Cody said, my bad. He did not. Oh, boy. That's what he said. And while you were talking, before you finished that story, Tony said to me while you were talking, and this is how Amin ages.
