In case you slept through it, a predawn lunar eclipse occurred at 5:38AM CST this morning (Tuesday, March 3). The “Worm Moon” (as dubbed by the astronomy community) is a nod to earthworms which tend to emerge from the ground at this time of year during winter thawing. Anyone living south of I-20 knows a thing or two about thawing of late.  Air conditioners here in the deep South have also emerged from hibernation after a recent wave of 80+ degree temperatures – even before the end of February. As can happen during these full moon events, the weekend featured a number of rather unusual sports stories. Women’s half-marathon in Atlanta ended with a surprise finish Sunday’s women’s Half Marathon Championship in Atlanta provided a lead vehicle in front of the leaders pack.  These are commonly used for races in major cities.  With a little more than one mile to go in the race, the top three women runners followed such a vehicle. Unfortunately, it led the top trio off the race course and down the wrong street! The other runners in the field quickly noted the error, made the proper turn, and proceeded on toward the finish line. The confused race leader needed about 60 seconds to notice that she was running the wrong way.  She and the other two leaders quickly made a U-turn.  Those unfortunate detour required almost two minutes in order to return to the original course route.  By then, the confused trio of competitors would complete the race in 9th, 12th and 13th place. The top prize of $20,000 went to another runner. This threesome of wayward runners filed an immediate protest afterwards.  It was denied. Officials claimed that the entry form clearly required each runner to know the race layout prior to the start of the competition. What about that lead vehicle?  Ironically, the vehicle was provided by the host city’s Atlanta Track Club. Driving in a big city like Atlanta can be challenging, but that was downright embarrassing. USC’s 26-year old (!) top scoring basketball player is no longer with the team The 18-11 USC Trojans men’s basketball team has lost five straight games.  After the team’s weekend loss to #12 Nebraska, USC announced that its 19 point-per game starting forward was no longer with the team. Chad Baker-Mazara went down with an apparent injury early in the second half of Southern Cal’s 82-67 home loss to the surprising Cornhuskers on Saturday. Instead of sitting down on the team’s bench, the 6’7” basketball player was found sitting in the stands near the bench between a young lady and another injured teammate. The trio was seen having a delightful chat during the second half of USC’s fifth straight loss. USC has fallen from a likely NCAA March Madness selection to a team unlikely to make the field unless they win the upcoming Big Ten basketball tournament. Second year coach Eric Musselman was unaware of the severity of Chad Baker-Mazara’s injury during the game other than the trainer telling the coach, “He couldn’t go.” Chad Baker-Mazara is from the Dominican Republic. He has played collegiately for Duquesne (Pittsburgh), San Diego State, Northwest Florida State, Auburn (2023-2025) and at USC this season.   He has a history of being rather temperamental on and off the court. The 26-year old Baker-Mazara was listed as a graduate student at Southern Cal.  However, he was drafted in late January by a professional basketball league based in Puerto Rico. Perhaps he’s had enough of those tough grad school courses at age 26 to get that degree. Famed “Bear Trap” snared PGA golfer Shane Lowry in Sunday’s final round The 15th, 16th, and 17th holes at PGA National’s Champion course are well known to professional golfers. Called “The Bear Trap” to honor course designer Jack “The Golden Bear” Nicklaus, this trio of holes is among the most difficult on the PGA Tour.  Add a stiff Florida ocean breeze and carding a par on each of those three holes is considered a big success. The 2019 British Open champion Shane Lowry was atop the leaderboard by two shots coming into the infamous “Bear Trap” holes at the Cognizant Classic in Palm Beach, Florida Sunday. Lowry made a par 3 on the 15th hole to retain his lead. At the par-4 16th hole, Shane Lowry’s tee shot drifted to the right and splashed down into the adjacent lake.  A double bogey six tightened the match and allowed his playing competitors back into the game. The final “Bear Trap” obstacle was the treacherous par-3 17th hole.  With mounting pressure and gusting winds, Shane Lowry’s tee shot again drifted right and sank to the bottom of a lake.  That second consecutive double bogey also sank Lowry’s chances to win the golf tournament. Columbia’s Nico Echavarria held steady and gladly accepted his good fortune to claim a victory and paycheck of more than $1.7 million.  Shane Lowry finished in a tie for second place.  His payday of $726,000 was one million dollars less than he would have received for first place. Ouch! Thought about the weekend NFL Combine – New York Jets coach needs more sleep The woeful New York Jets will have four of the first 44 selections during Round 1 and 2 in late April’s NFL draft in Pittsburgh. Head coach Aaron Glenn finished 4-13 during his first season with the Jets in 2025.  He was in the stands watching the NFL’s annual college player combine over the weekend at Indianapolis. The NFL Combine is where potential pro draft choices showcase their ability to run fast, jump high, and sparkle in a series of drills in front of all 32 teams. The Jets coach apparently was so bored by the proceedings that he was caught briefly napping during the Combine. That’s OK, coach! I tried to watch about 15 minutes of that stuff over the weekend.  It definitely works better than No-Doze in putting you to sleep.  Zzzz. The NFL Combine can serve as a launching point for an athletically-gifted player – especially those coming from the smaller schools.  The combine also reveals weaknesses which might negatively affect your potential NFL draft value, too. Former Arkansas Razorback quarterback Taylen Green is basking in ESPN’s rays of praise Taylen Green was already ESPN’s #7 quarterback heading into the NFL Combine last weekend.  After an impressive showing, he may be moving up some teams’ draft board. Taylen Green ran a speedy 4.36 second 40-yard dash.  Zoom! He established a quarterback record with a 43 ½ inch vertical leap.  Is he playing basketball or football? Green posted a broad jump of 11′ 2”.  Why is that important for a quarterback? Welcome to the unique world of the annual NFL Scouting Combine.    Taylen Green was quarterback for an Arkansas Razorback football team which finished only 2-10 last year.  He passed for 19 touchdowns but also had 11 interceptions.   Taylen Green averaged more than 3.13 seconds from the time he received the snap until making a throw while at the University of Arkansas.  That was 4th slowest among all 136 FBS major college starting quarterbacks last season. He must to trim that statistic by a full half-second in the NFL, or he will be pummeled regularly by speedy on-coming defenders. Taylen Green may go on to have a terrific NFL career.  But, then again…??? Let’s remember a few recent first-round quarterbacks flops after being praised by the ESPN Draft Day hype train! ESPN’s enthusiastic NFL insider Mel “Hyper” Kiper practically drooled when fawning over former first round quarterback Kyler Murray in 2019.  Arizona selected Murray with the first overall pick in that year’s NFL draft. Seven years later, the Arizona Cardinals are desperately trying to trade Kyler Murray away.  He has led the team to just one playoff game over seven seasons and his contract will pay him $40 million this season.  Good luck trying to make any deal, Cardinals! In 2021, the NFL Combine shined the athletic spotlight brightly onto North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance. He wowed the scouts at the combine with an exceptional ability to run fast, jump high, and leap over tall buildings in a single bound.  (Oops, wrong guy!) The San Francisco 49ers talked themselves into selecting Trey Lance with the 3rd overall selection in the first round of the 2021 draft. Sadly, Lance was a flop in his first three seasons in San Francisco.  He was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in 2024.  Lance was cut loose by the Cowboys after just one year in Big D.  The Los Angeles Chargers signed Lance last season to serve as a back-up to starter Justin Herbert. Don’t forget about 2023’s NFL Combine star quarterback Anthony Richardson Much like Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green, Anthony Richardson became the darling of the NFL Combine in 2023.  Richardson had finally become the starting QB for the Florida Gators in his third year at the school. He made a number of poor decisions behind center that season but was often bailed-out by his uncanny running skills.  The Gators went a pedestrian 6-6, but the team’s quarterback convinced himself that he was ready to play in the NFL. An impressive showing at the 2023 NFL Combine helped to elevate draft hype about Anthony Richardson.  He would vault all the way into the 4th overall selection by the Indianapolis Colts three years ago in 2023. After just three NFL seasons, the Colts are now practically begging someone to take Richardson off their hands right now. Anthony Richardson has started only 15 games in three years.  He has more career interceptions (13) than touchdowns (11).  Richardson suffered concussions in his rookie season from frequently running with the football.  Since then, he has dealt with a myriad of injuries. Anthony Richardson has one season left on his rookie NFL contract which pays him “only” $8.5 million in 2026.  With a relatively affordable price tag, Richardson is likely to be traded to another team willing to give him a second chance. The NFL Draft Combine nearly sunk 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was the last college football player selected in the 2022 NFL draft. “Mr. Irrelevant” (the sarcastic nickname assigned to the final person selected in each year’s NFL draft) was a very accurate and successful quarterback for three seasons at Iowa State. However, Brock Purdy’s participation in that spring’s NFL Combine produced a pedestrian 4.84 second 40-yard dash and a lackluster 27” vertical leap.  His perceived lack of athleticism caused Brock Purdy to drop further down the draft boards after an underwhelming showing at the NFL Combine. Five years later, “Mr. Irrelevant” is the 49er’s starting quarterback, has played in a Super Bowl and now earns $53 million per year. Moral of the story – Don’t place too much stock in the NFL Combine results when evaluating a future pro football player – especially at the quarterback position! The post Beware! The Worm Moon is upon us! appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.

Golf is a crazy and brutal game, even for the best in the world. Shane Lowry found that out this week at PGA National for the Cognizant Classic. With a three-shot lead on the 16th tee, he flared an iron into the water, which resulted in a double bogey. On the 17th tee shot he did it again, which allowed Nico Echavarria to take home the title. We will do a deep dive into the tournament and what exactly happened to Shane Lowry on this week's episode. It is Arnold Palmer Invitational week and we will be talking one of the best tournaments of the year on the PGA Tour at storied Bay Hill. Scottie Scheffler will once again be a major favorite for this event, which usually plays pretty difficult for tour players. McLaren racing is dipping their toes into the golf world with an announcement Monday that they will start making golf clubs. The luxury car manufacturer and dominant Formula 1 team, will supposedly be launching clubs in late April. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple, Spotify and YouTube for weekly golf content.

Andy and Brendan! went LIVE on YouTube for a Victory Monday morning recording following a Ballfrogs win over Jupiter Links late Sunday night. Andy is buzzing now that the Frogs have locked up the number one seed in the TGL playoffs despite the best efforts of "Tom Sim" and Max Homa. This turned out to be a loaded weekend of pro golf with national opens across the globe and a Cognizant Classic that absolutely delivered. Shane Lowry found the water twice in "The Bear Trap," blowing a four-shot lead on the final three holes at PGA National. The Salty Boy, Nico Echavarria, came up with a birdie on the 17th to take the lead and eventually secure his third PGA Tour win. Andy and Brendan discuss Lowry's collapse and debate whether he'll find himself in another position to win on the PGA Tour any time soon. Lowry, who hasn't won a solo event in the U.S. since 2015, had a win probability of over 96% standing on the 16th tee before being the first player to hit it in the water on Sunday. Brendan gives him props for speaking to the media immediately after his round and sharing that he wanted to win in front of his daughter for the first time. Following an epic finish - and despite a poor setup at PGA National - Andy runs through the Tour's schedule and puts the Cognizant in a tier above many Signature Events and all three playoff venues this year. PJ shares an update on the yearlong "Brooks Koepka vs. Mules" contest after Koepka's first top ten finish of the season. Is the money deficit already too big for the Mules to make up? Andy and Brendan then run through results from the rest of the week, hitting on the South African Open, New Zealand Open, and the Argentina Open, where winners and top finishers earned a spot at Royal Birkdale later this year. In news, the USGA had a massive Saturday news dump in which they awarded the 2045(!!!) U.S. Open to Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio. Who knows if this podcast will exist in 19 years, but these two midwesterners are excited for the national championship to return to America's heartland. Things wrap up with some TGL chatter recapping the first overtime match of 2026 and plenty of Jason Kelce exposure on the Worldwide Leader in Sports.

This Friday episode begins with an apology from Andy after a missed opportunity to discuss Kevin Roy (and his dad, Patrick) as part of our preview of The Cognizant Classic. Brendan moves things along to an early check-in at the South African Open where George Coetzee withdrew after a poor start, ending his run in this week's Game Within a Game. Another Game Within a Game participant is Ernie Els, who Andy claimed "looked a little husky" on the range. This Ernie discussion ushers in a brand-new Champions Tour Minute after Andy and PJ heard from a well-placed source that the "next big thing" on the senior circuit is not Tiger Woods or Zach Johnson, but another 50-year-old waiting to make his debut. The bulk of this episode focuses on some comments from pre-tournament press conferences at The Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches. Shane Lowry believes that the overseed course setup by the Tour's Championship Management has dramatically altered this event from a tough test to now something that looks green on television. Billy Horschel tried to shift the blame off the Tour and to the resort at PGA National, but Andy and Brendan aren't giving them the benefit of the doubt. This issue with the setups is even further exemplified at this week's KFT event at the Jockey Club, with Andy saying that the Tour has "completely ruined so many places." Ryan Gerard, the betting favorite at this event, also had some things to say before he teed off. Gerard has been a focus of the Tour's marketing efforts this week and Brendan thinks this can be a model for future "PGA-B" events potentially making stars. Gerard shared a story about playing with Scottie Scheffler and how Scottie manages to bridge the gap between clubs by playing a high-launching shot. Gerard has been chasing that shot and believes he has it, hoping that it'll lead to success at the majors this year. Brendan then shares a Flashback Friday segment on the 1991 Honda Classic, won by Steve Pate. This story has it all, including a legendary overclub challenge by Paul Azinger and a scorekeeper finding a lost ball.

Joe Highsmith went from barely making the cut to his first PGA Tour win with an exemplary weekend at the Cognizant Classic to kick of the the "Florida Swing" at PGA National. Jake Knapp fired a sizzling 59 on Thursday to jump out to a lead but was not able to keep the good playing going through 72 holes as he and the rest of the field were passed by Highsmith on the weekend to grab the title. Luke Clanton made another PGA Tour cut and got his tour card through the PGA Tour University accelerated program. It has been a spectacular and unique rise for Clanton who has done it mostly by great play in PGA Tour tournaments. We even dare to raise the question about the number one amatuer in the world... Would Keegan Bradley think about making him a captains pick for the Ryder Cup this fall? With Angel Cabrera coming back to the Masters and a former Australian biker gang member qualifying for the Open Championship at Royal Portrush, we dig into some of the felonies committed during PGA Tour events. Jeff will also discuss a current legal situation between Tony Finau and some agents he had early in his career.

This Monday episode quickly gets into the Sunday finish at the Cognizant Classic, where Jake Knapp melted on the back nine and Joe Highsmith shot a 64 to secure his first PGA Tour win. Andy takes no pride in a successful double-down on Knapp not winning after Thursday's 59 and wonders how he keeps getting himself in these situations with his takes. Highsmith and his caddie, Joe LaCava Jr., get props from Brendan and Andy for back-to-back 64s on the weekend, earning the win after making the cut on the number. Brendan shares some on-the-ground reports from a listener about the "worst edition" of the PGA National event yet. The two also touch on performances from Russell Henley, Doug Ghim, and Michael Kim, among others. Most importantly, Andy is thrilled that world No. 92, Luke Clanton, finally secured his PGA Tour card! From there, the two discuss a rain-shortened South African Open, where a runner-up finish secured Laurie Canter's place in the top 50 of the OWGR. Brendan openly wonders if the PGA Tour will let the former Cleek take his rightful place in the field at The Players. Lydia Ko won the HSBC Championship in dominant fashion for her 23rd career win. Andy's interest in biker gangs was rewarded at the New Zealand Open, where former biker gang member Ryan Peake won the event and a spot in The Open Championship this summer. Some news from the weekend is discussed, including the all-important TGL playoff push happening Monday and Tuesday. Nick Dunlap has signed a one-day deal with the Atlanta Drive, but Andy is wondering if their organization is laying down to keep the Ballfrogs out of the playoffs. The two discuss the Seminole Pro-Member field and a possible Tiger Woods appearance at TPC Sawgrass next week. To end the episode, Andy, Brendan, and PJ come up with some ideas for a PGA Tour Scouting Combine to celebrate the NFL Combine in Indianapolis coming to a close. Who's your pick to beat Sepp Straka in an Oklahoma drill?

Enjoy a special reheat of three Flashback segments remembering events at PGA National! First, Andy shares some details about Bruce Lietzke, the 1984 Honda winner, who changed his entire schedule to spend more time with his family and had an affinity for a timely hot dog. Brendan then recaps Tim "Lumpy" Herron's win at the 1996 Honda Classic. Lumpy won the tournament as a rookie, but this segment also has plenty of nuggets about the eventful week Greg Norman had and his ongoing issues with the TPC Network. The second Flashback in this episode covers Camilo Villegas' 2010 Honda win, the cycling career of "Spider-Man," and some good karma for Graeme McDowell after calling a penalty on himself at PGA National that year. Finally, take a trip back to the 1987 PGA Championship at PGA National, where the competition almost literally melted away in the Florida heat.

Hour 1 The Giants' chances of getting Matthew Stafford are slim, as reports say he'll go to the Raiders. Boomer discussed the draft's QB options, stating that neither Shedeur Sanders nor Cam Ward will be ready to play in year one. C-Lo gave an update on Rutgers' loss to Michigan and Coach Steve Pikiel's post-game interview. The Yankees are still unsure about Giancarlo's return. Hour 2 The hosts discussed the changing role of offensive linemen and the recent struggles of left tackles. They debated the impact of sumo wrestlers in the NFL and reflected on Gene Hackman's career. Sports updates included Michigan's win, Adam Schein's potential move, and tensions between Myles Garrett and the Browns. The Islanders won against the Bruins, and the Rams met with Stafford amidst reports of a potential deal with the Raiders and Giants. Hour 3 Jake Knapp shot a 59 at PGA National. Boomer discussed Matthew Stafford's contract. The Giants are still in the mix with the Raiders for Stafford, but neither Boomer nor Gio think he's picking the Giants. C-Lo returns for an update and gets berated by Boomer for not fundraising for the Five Borough Bike Tour. Boomer also talks about Mike Hill, who works at his foundation, who saw Paul McCartney at Bowery Ballroom. Hour 4 The show discussed potential landing spots for Matthew Stafford, Tom Brady, and Davante Adams. They also talked about Sam Darnold's future and the possibility of him staying in Minnesota. Mike Greenberg and Damien Woody weighed in on Stafford's potential move to the Giants. Rich Eisen discussed Ian Rapoport's fight with Jordan Schultz.

Andy and Brendan have a lot to talk about for this Friday episode with the first round of the Cognizant proving to be a content bonanza. Billy Horschel was chasing alligators and criticizing the setup, PGA Tour Championship Management destroyed a once-proud event, and golf superstar Jake Knapp opened his week with a 59! The two discuss all of these topics and the storied history of The Honda Classic and remember how tough PGA National used to play. Andy shares the list of previous winners at the course and notes how many of them are top-tier legends of the game. Brendan rants about PGA Tour Championship Management overseeding the course and allowing the course record to be shattered on Thursday of the tournament. They briefly discuss the South African Open and HSBC Women's World Championship before diving into some golf news ahead of the weekend. Annika Sorenstam has thrown her support behind former Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott to take over as the LPGA commish, leading to all of the sports world mocking this idea. There's some debate about whether any worse choices are out there, and if there are, it's decided that there are very few. Andy announces that he's been invited to a watch party for the big LAGC vs. The Bay match on Monday morning Pacific Time and wonders if he should make an appearance. In Golf Advice, a late submission commiserates with Andy about Jake Knapp's 59 and an emailer asks for advice on an upcoming golf trip. To end this episode, PJ has a short Flashback Friday about the 1971 PGA Championship at the original PGA National, the first time the event was held in February.

TSN Hockey Insider joins to discuss Mikko Rantanen's trade noise, Brayden Schenn's potential move and the deal-making teams across the league.

A 9 p.m. TGL match had Andy and Brendan ready for a late night live show for this Wednesday episode. The two react to the week that was in the SoFi Dome, with Brendan sharing details from his in-person experience watching the Ballfrogs lose yet again on Monday night. With losses by Jupiter Links and NYGC as well, all three teams will have a chance to make the playoffs in the final week of the regular season. Andy and Brendan discuss Tuesday night's match between The Bay and Jup Links, critiquing the broadcast and wondering if the product is better without the pressure of Tiger playing. They shout out stellar performances by "Tom Sim" and "Dr. Chipinski" Min Woo Lee, helping to make Tuesday's match entertaining. Andy updates his model and spits out this week's TGL Power Rankings with the Ballfrogs tumbling down the graphic. The Bay GC is standing tall at No. 1, but PJ wonders if there's some underlying metrics that could present a problem for them in the playoffs. The conversation then shifts to this week's Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches, where Jordan Spieth feels he's a good fit for the course at PGA National. Andy and Brendan aren't so sure, and Spieth goes unpicked as a Hammer, Lock, Fire selection for this week. The South African Open on the DP World Tour presents a bevy of Games Within a Game for longtime SGS listeners. In news, "Full Swing" returned to Netflix on Tuesday and Brendan makes a cameo in an early episode! Brendan also shares some quotes from Peter Malnati regarding a potential PIF-PGA Tour deal and President Trump's involvement in negotiations. Finally, one of Andy's favorites has a PR firm asking for coverage of his new life after golf.

Typically overlooked due to its lack of star power, the Mexico Open at VidantaWorld provided an amazing final round on Sunday filled with drama. Journeyman Brian Campbell bested rookie Aldrich Potgieter in a playoff for his first win on the PGA Tour. In a true David vs. Goliath matchup, the PGA Tour's longest hitter, Potgieter, was bested by possibly its shortest hitter Campbell to win the event. Campball is only averaging about 277 yards off the tee this season while Potgieter is number one in driving distance on tour, averaging over 320 yards off the tee. Potgieter struggled with his short game all day, and while Campbell also had his struggles, he did enough to get into a playoff. On the 2nd playoff hole, Campbell hit a tee shot into the woods and what looked to be a certain loss, but the golf gods had other plans and spit his ball back out into play and he would up making birdie to win the playoff and punch his ticket to Augusta National and the Masters, as well as a two year exemption on the PGA Tour. This week in YouTube golf saw the Bryan Bros. break 59 at PGA National with unlimited mulligans and the Good Good Golf guys played a worst ball round.
