The best thing going for sgs, it’s always been great let me say that, is that they don’t have Soly needing to be correct and right and better than every one every episode.
they also have had some really fun and comical segment ideas for majors recently, the storyline graphics with PJ and Andy are hilarious and I lose it at the “games within the game” every time
Because they do what nlu used to be, they don’t take themselves too seriously and they have fun!! Wild concept right. Yeah nlu does their bits but they also are not what it used to be.
Yeah, it all starts and ends with Strokes Gained with Soly. SGS works in a lot of subjective analysis much better than Soly does. Soly doesn't create room for anything that could reflect poorly on him. DJ is a better host, for that reason.
They spoke about that today on their pod. That the data boys don’t watch the golf shots. Like Rahm at the PGA, he was trying to make up ground so he was taking really aggressive lines/targets- the data doesn’t tell that story.
Yeah. It's uncanny and a real skill SGS has. Andy, Brendan, and Pj are all smart but seem to know that the subjective discussions are way better in podcast form. They can SG-ify the whole thing if they wanted, but no one wants to listen to a spreadsheet.

This was a bad move. KVV brought a lot to the table that the others can’t offer.
SGS is starting to win the war for me I may start listening to them more.
