American Disc Golf Tour

[DavidSauls]

KCWO the week before, Masters Cup the week after. I wonder how many pros made the choice to head back west after KC in lieu of this event. I'd be willing to bet the number is fairly high.

With, I believe, an A-tier on the weekend between, and on the way west.

The timing of the American Open is one of the very many head-scratchers, though we don't know what constraints they were under. It seems doubtful to me that ESPN3 limited their options, though Cobblestone might have. Or perhaps it was just their non-PDGA, anti-PDGA stance that resulted in the awkward scheduling.

Attending all 3 (KCWO, ADGT, and MC) is quite a bit of travel, but perhaps some players---particularly eastern players, especially those from nearby---will skip one or the other of the PDGA events, replacing it with the ADGT.

Thanks for mentioning it---I hadn't paid close attention, had really just listened to the conversation. "Startled", I think, might be the word, though he took the high ground and held his tongue. (I wonder if he did so after the interview?)

Terry was totally professional as always when on camera.

ADGT promos are gonna be killer compared to this!

I think startled is a bit of an understatement.

It makes sense that Rico would play in the ADGT. Especially given the chance (long shot) that footage ends up on a real ESPN station. He's a small business owner and that could be great exposure.

Plus he will probably place pretty high against that field.

Just because this needs to be posted again...classic '3-direction' eye roll, Buster Keaton would be proud.

I even like the lean-in to make sure he heard Rico correctly.

Rico's reaction makes it sound like he really doesn't know ANYTHING about ADGT. He's like yea, I'll be at that...I'm planning to make lots of big events this year. I wonder if he knows anything about the people running this thing.

I wouldn't exactly call this holding his tongue, especially given the tone of his voice.

You should be running your travel plans past me.

Has Terry said anything about the ADGT? I may have missed it.

 

[DavidSauls]

Oh, how I wish they kept recording after the "on air" light went off.....

Well, compared to what, say, the folks in this thread might have said, given the same situation.......

Maybe Rico thought he was talking about the DGWT?

He knew it was in SC... Not on ADGT's list though, better list him up, he's as good as committed at this point

 

[TheOtherBill]

Not a computer guy, but is there any way to zoom in on Terry and just get his reaction as gif?

That would become my sig line if so.
