Wednesday: $cottie $cheffler

A misused Venmo account has people begging for money.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Are you familiar with the cash app Venmo or the
pay app? I guess is probably more accurate. I know
of it. I do not use it. I use Zel, Yeah,
so do I? Yeah? Because it's easier. Well, and you
get your money right away, you don't have to wait
for it for a day.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Well, not only that, but my banking service bought Zel,
so it just kind of incorporated it, so.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
We probably have the same bank so that that's how
that works. But anyway, Scotty Scheffler used to have a
Venmo account. Okay, and you realize if you need you
need some money, instead of just calling the person and say, hey,
can you send me some money or can you I
borrow some money, you can you can go on the
Venmo account and if you have the phone number of

(00:45):
the person that you want to talk to, you can
ask them for money. You can request the money. Yeah,
I think you can do that on Zel too, requests money. Well,
Scotty Scheffler apparently gave you his phone number to too
many people who also gave his number to other people,
and he had to delete his Venmo account because too

(01:06):
many people were asking for money. After he won seventy
million dollars, in the last year. I mean, so you're
saying he has a little bit of pocket change to spare. Well,
apparently everybody else thinks that what he has done is
partially theirs. And I'm sure there are people that are like, yeah,
can I have? Can I have? I mean alone, I
mean a gift? Yeah? And what do you go? You know,

(01:26):
talk Scotty talks all the time about you know, I
don't really need all this money. It's nice to have
and it's all going in the bank and stuff. But uh,
but you know, I don't know what I would spend
on it. And there's other people like, I'll help you
spend it, just since on my way. Damn sure. I
mean you can send it to the Zell account of
Andy and Michael too. You know, that's kind of funny.
That's funny for Scotty.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Scott is just I love Scotty Scheffler because he's just
He's just a regular guy.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
He doesn't come off smug, he doesn't come off you know. Well,
here's the thing too, And unfortunately, and I don't know,
he doesn't when he makes a pot, he doesn't fist pump, doesn't.
He doesn't. He's a very emotionless player, like, yeah, I
kind of expected to do that. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
And I wish that we appreciated things like that more.
But the Tiger and the Phills and the Deschambos, who
are more demonstrative with their emotions. I mean very seldom
does a hot mic pick up Scotti Scheffler saying anything
that's not for family approval. Yah, I mean, sure's I'm

(02:33):
sure it has, and I'm sure he's said a few things,
because if you're a golfer, you probably have at some
point in your life. But he doesn't have that lightning
rod on him. I mean, how can you hate Scotty?
And I think I mean he went to Texas about
the only fault I can think of.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
I think that's what it is, too, is there are
so many people, at least for like for Tiger, for instance,
we all know that Tiger was a needle, but there
still is and still is, but there were certain things
for It's like, well, this is what I don't like
about Tiger, even though because he is winning all the time,
but I can find something to nitpick. It's like, well,
he does too much for live.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
You don't like all of the exuber and extra curriculum.
I've changed my opinion a little bit on Bryson to
Shambeau as I talked about a year ago after he
won the US Open. But that's who he is, but baking, yeah, exactly,
And if he is, he's doing a good job of
faking it to the point where I don't think that
he is, and I think I would. You know, Bryson

(03:32):
was asked today, your Live contract goes to so many years,
what do you plans after Live? And he said, play
live on live more. Here. Here's the reason why Bryson
likes Live is because he knows he's gonna play eighteen
weeks a year at the most. He's gonna play the
four Majors. He's gonna play twelve to fourteen of the
live events. And he's using Live to create content for

(03:55):
his social media stuff on YouTube. And he's a YouTube golfer.
Now that's what he cares more about. He doesn't care
about playing Bayhill or the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He doesn't
care about the legacy of trying to catch tiger Woods
in terms of wins, and so he just wants to
be the lone wolf out there. And I am for

(04:16):
everything that promotes the game of golf. I was listing
earlier today and the USGA had a press conference where
Mike Wan In the last seven years, golf participation has
gone up fifty five percent. Fifty five percent more people
are playing golf now than they did in twenty eighteen
and twenty nineteen. I think some of that is.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
The reluctant part of twenty twenty.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
With Yes, because you couldn't do anything else. You had
to do outdoor activities, and so with COVID you had
to go outside and we discovered. But you have the
biggest growth in that is from women and girls golf
as well. So that's pretty amazing too. All right, coming
up in the five o'clock hour, we'll talk about Game
three of the NBA Finals tonight. Are US Open picks

(05:04):
and college basketball rules. It's coming up on four fifty five.
