Episode Description
SHOW NOTES:
• If you’re in love with golf, and especially hitting a ball into a bed sheet, I suggest you don’t listen to this.
• Is watching multi-millionaires hit balls into a screen and then in a confined stadium with undulating greens really interesting? Is it really a sport? Are they really “athletes”?
• Maybe the Americans should focus on trying to win a Ryder Cup out in the real world before trying to excel in a virtual world.
• Are we ruining tennis, baseball, football with endless algorithms and technological toys while purging them of judgment?
• Do you need a veteran sports manager to read computer output?
• We’d never develop today a Ted Williams, Willie Mays, or Sandy Koufax.
• I understand the weekend duffer who spends four hours with buddies and then goes for drinks and cigars. I don’t understand what’s so fascinating about watching millionaires, who have caddies and perfect courses, competing to make more millions when there’s such a strong factor of luck involved.
