Episode 92: LIV Golf is Live, but Should We Care?

After an incredibly controversial announcement, the LIV Golf Tour, funded by the Saudi Arabian government is now officially underway. But how should we view the golfers who left the PGA Tour to join this new endeavor? There's plenty of blame to go around, and Chad and John are here to break it all down. Rafael Nadal secured his 22nd Grand Slam title, and Chad officially declares him the GOAT of his sport (2:31). The NBA Finals are 3 games in, and the Boston Celtics have the upper hand, but there is one statistic that tells the story of the series so far (7:40). Last in current events, the Tampa Bay Rays pride night became a matter of controversy after several players opted out of wearing patches. Was the backlash against them fair, and how did the team handle the situation (11:15)? For our big story, we discuss the LIV Golf Tour and the comments of the athletes who are participating. How can we all respond to these obvious examples of sports-washing, and how outraged should we be (19:54)? Finally, Chad is boycotting the conversation surrounding Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 4, but we do tackle one question surrounding the underwhelming series and tell you what can happen to make this show stick the landing (45:12). As always, make sure to share this episode if you enjoyed it, and give us a follow on all our social media platforms!
