Chapter 2: What challenges is the PGA Tour facing according to its CEO?
Yeah, and I was going to ask you about that, trying to bring the NFL to the PGA Tour. Yeah. How can you do that? Well, look, the NFL is one of one. Like, you don't ā I mean, I think in this job it would be a mistake to say ā Everything we do at the NFL is going to work at the PGA Tour. Or even to say that professional football and professional golf are the same thing. They're not.
They're different. And that's a good thing. That's great. But I do think there are things we learned at the NFL that I was part of that I think ā we can bring to professional golf. I think what we're talking about is, you know, at the NFL, we obsessed about the competitive product. Like how do you make it better on the field?
And not only do you just think nonstop about making the game better, making the game better,
honoring tradition but not being overly bound by it um but not only just do that once but constantly do that and we change rules every year for the for the benefit of the sport and i think that can help here i think so this this commitment to innovation and just thinking like a fan and thinking about the product i think we're going to do more of that here i think about how you present
the sport on television and media. We obsessed about that. And not only just when the game was on, but also during the week and in the off season. And that's some of the things we're talking about. And so I think, you know, some things we're talking about, we talked about the personality of the players.
I think that's something we can do, but you know, we, we were, you know, we had a great saying at the NFL is only the paranoid survive. And I think that just means you gotta keep, keep changing, keep innovating. And I think we're trying to bring a little bit of that here. Can we do something about the piped-in bird sounds, Brian? Come on.
Honestly, I don't know a ton about the ā I don't even know if that's a real thing. Just listen to the Quail Hollow coverage, and there was a bird that followed the leaders the entire round. Listen, you've got to ask the guys in the truck about that. I don't know about that. You're the big CEO. You've got power. I don't. Listen, there's some things I don't understand.
I don't get in the production truck, and I don't know the bird population in Charlotte, North Carolina either. I do have limits to what I can do.
uh the galleries uh issues i know we we have waste management we encourage that but issues with and gambling uh you know it's a it's a vocal everybody knows prop bets you know people are vocal there people get angry too yeah i think this is uh an issue for all sports um Any sport you go to, there's a fan code of conduct, right?

Chapter 3: How does competition from the Live Tour affect the PGA Tour?
He won't brag about it, but he's a good golfer. Well, maybe he's taken those meetings on the golf course. No, that he doesn't. I've worked with Roger long enough to know he works hard, and so I don't think he spends a lot of time on the golf course. Great to catch up with you, Brian. Good luck in the job. Thanks for joining us. All right, Dan. Great to see you. Thanks for having me.
Brian Rolap, PGA Tour CEO. Be sure to catch the live edition of the Dan Patrick Show weekdays at 9 a.m. Eastern, 6 a.m. Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
This is Rob Parker and I'm here with an important public service announcement. Whatever you do, do not listen to the Paulie and Tony Fusco show. Fox Sports Radio asked me to do a promo, but I'm here to do a no-mo. As in, don't listen to this show no-mo. The host are two fools from Philly who have the dumbest takes ever in all of sports talk.
And you know, if I'm saying that, they must really be bad. I have no idea why Fox Sports Radio picked this up, but I know where to put it down. In the trash can. So please, don't listen to the Paulie and Tony Fusco show. No way, no how.
Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, Nick? Huge news. We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Yeah, a pretty wide range of podcasts.
We're starting a trend.
But this one's extra special. So how did we actually come up with the name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it, and... Well, we were thinking of originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, Hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

Chapter 4: What strategies are being implemented to enhance player participation?
I think you have to give Gobert credit for that. I think that's actually one of the things he did do well, many things he did well defensively, but... When he was at his prime, Rudy was a guy that whether he was blocking the shot or not, when you drove to the basket, you had to at least see where he was at. And he altered shots that way. He had an impact on the defensive side.
So not to this level. We've never seen it, obviously. What Wemby does is just like, I mean, the alien is the best nickname I think fitting for this dude. But yeah, Rudy had a little bit of that for sure. Was there a market correction last night with SGA that he only shoots three free throws? No, because I understand why people feel this way, and I get it.
When he falls after every jump shot, it can be hard to watch and other things, but I've called games this year where I've seen this guy make like 15 to 20 field goals in a game. He is unbelievable as a basketball player, so... I thought they did a great job defending and just coming out of the game with physicality. And they took the win out of OKC.
OKC hung around for most of the game until that third quarter, and they just blew it wide open. And I think you heard it after the game with Shea's interview. He's like, I'm ready to go. I think these guys were already... I don't want to say they were planning for Game 7, but... I think they went into that game last night.
They put up a fight, and as soon as it turned, they're like, let's go get it at home. This has been a tick for tech series. These two teams mirror each other. They do a lot of the same things. Actually, in every regard, they're the same team. So... This has been the best series all playoffs.
I do feel if OKC wins, they have a stronger chance of winning the championship, whereas I feel like if San Antonio wins, the Knicks could be a thorn in their side in certain regards. It's interesting how this will play out. Yeah, and I keep saying I hope the officials let certain moments play on. There's certain moments where you just say, okay, let's go.
And I see this more in the WNBA than I do the NBA. It feels like they do stop. They're going to give the benefit of the doubt. And if I'm SGA... I go searching for fouls. I don't want to apologize for winning. Yeah. So I think we'll probably see him more aggressive in Game 7. You're at home. I would be surprised if he doesn't shoot more than 10 free throws on Saturday.
Yeah, the aggression will definitely be up. In a game seven, you go for it. You know, they did a great job of... surrounding him, you got to corral SGA. You can't let him operate in space. He has to continue to make the right play, and they're okay with that. You have to be willing with Dort and Caruso threes. I know Caruso's playing out of his mind right now. We got to live with that, though.
You know what I mean? Like, Caruso and Dort hit five threes each, four threes. You know, hey, listen, shake their hand, and we gave it our best. But, like, giving him, like you said... room to operate and him getting 14, 15 free throws, you're not going to win that way.

Chapter 5: How is the PGA Tour addressing the issue of player personalities?
I do think we're going back to an era of the ball moving around more instead of like the Lucas, you know, the Trae Youngs. All these guys are remarkable players, right? But that style of play where you're dribbling like the era of the ball, you just don't. With the exception of Shea, the ball really pops. And you're seeing that with a lot of these teams.
Indiana was kind of a secret to that last year when they popped up. So multiple guys that can put the ball on the floor, multiple guys that can defend. If I said you had to get a two, and I'm going to... You pick if the guy's still left. If I give you Brunson and SGA, you need a two. Game on the line, you need a two. Man, that's so tough, man. Brunson so damn good down the stretch man.
It's it's like it's impossible to like not pick him just because what we've seen and Yet I still I have to go the guy who's I gotta go the MVP man For a multitude of reasons it's close first off. There's no wrong answer because Brunson's probably my favorite part in the NBA just his footwork, but Shea's taller, can always get a shot off no matter what.
Not that you see Brunson get a shot blocked at any time, but Shea can at least get a shot off whenever. And I know with the foul baiting stuff, at the very worst, I'm getting maybe two free throws with the guy. You know what I'm saying? He's going to get a clean look or he's getting to the line. So that's where I would have to probably just go Shea.
I think they're one and two in the NBA in terms of clutch. Are you and Draymond okay now?
i i i don't know i don't know you know what man me and him have always had like a little you know whatever when we played we'd always talk a lot versus each other for whatever reason we did extra then like somebody else uh and that no surprise carried over to to the the events following your show and dan i i don't I wish any negativity upon him. I wish him all the best in his life.
I stand by everything I said. I don't take anything back. But you were being an analyst. He was being personal. Correct. That's how he responds. When we talk basketball, I'll talk about basketball. black and white, he'll go personal. It's like when Chuck said, you know, how are you guys going to, you know, you guys are getting older. How are you guys going to defeat father time?
You know, what's the plan? Well, the plan is not to look like you and a Houston jerk. It wasn't, he never responded to the question. Yeah. He went personal with Chuck. You know what I'm saying? That's what he does. He goes personal.
So when I woke up the next day or two days later and had a full on three minute video about myself, just dissecting my career, I was just like, you know, and I responded with my video and that did what it did. But, you know, I still kept it. I still kept it light. I could have went. I don't like to be messy, and that's not who I am.
