00:00So I saw this on Twitter yesterday.
00:02If your life depended on it, which option would you choose?
00:06You need one of these four, Seth.
00:08You've got to pick one.
00:10Tiger Woods to make a six-foot putt.
00:13LeBron James to make a free throw.
00:16Adam Vinatieri to make a 50-yard field goal.
00:20I think people are underestimating how difficult.
00:23Does he have to do it in his era or in the current one?
00:26I'm just reading you what's on the tweet.
00:29And number four, Lionel Messi to make a penalty kick.
00:33I tweeted my choice out, and it's a pretty easy choice for me,
00:37but I'm curious.
00:37I don't want to poison the water.
00:39What would your choice be?
00:40You're sitting there, your head is on a guillotine,
00:42and one of these four things has to be converted successfully
00:46for them to let you off the guillotine.
00:48I would say Tiger Woods with a six-foot putt,
00:50and I would just walk away.
00:54I'd just be like, see you later, executioner,
00:56before I even, you know.
00:58You too, Grim Reaper.
00:59I don't know if that's the way they operate there,
01:01guillotine or not, where I would have free ability to walk away.
01:04Just to get up.
01:05I've already walked in.
01:07This guy's the cockiest near-death person we've ever seen.
01:10That was mine, too, man.
01:12Like Tiger Woods, because I'm looking at the other three things.
01:16LeBron shooting a free throw.
01:17Well, if I were to power rank him,
01:19I would say Tiger making a six-foot putt.
01:22Yeah.
01:23I'd go Messi second with a penalty kick.
01:25Messi, okay.
01:26So Messi is, I looked this up yesterday.
01:28I think Messi is 77% on penalty kicks.
01:31Tiger Woods is like 85% on a six-foot putt.
01:33Oh, you did the analytics on this.
01:34I love this.
01:35Yeah, yeah.
01:35Okay, good, good.
01:36I'm just going on feel.
01:37If they allow me to use my smartphone while I'm at the guillotine.
01:43Right.
01:43Yes.
01:44Yes.
01:44This is how I made my decision.
01:46Tiger Woods, six-foot putt.
01:49Messi, penalty kick would be second for me.
01:53Then LeBron, free throw.
01:5573.7% this year.
01:57So far, you're nails.
02:00I'm lining up with the percentages.
02:02Okay, and then what's Vinatieri's conversion rate on 50-plus yard field goals?
02:05That was the one I didn't do.
02:06So let me, yeah.
02:08What is it, a 50-yard field goal?
02:10A 50-yard field goal, yeah.
02:12Yeah, because it'll go 50-plus, you know,
02:15and then there's probably some 56-yarders he missed.
02:18So the question there is, though, he's, okay, he was 80% on 50-plus.
02:24Oh, wow.
02:27And below that.
02:28So I'm guessing when they came up with this, it's probably all,
02:32these are all about the same, you know, they're in the 80 percentile or so.
02:36So then it comes down to, okay, which of those guys,
02:39to do something that they do pretty damn well,
02:41which one do you really believe is it comes down to, okay,
02:45the guy is just that clutch in a high-pressure moment.
02:47Well, to be clear, this is an important distinction.
02:51Yeah.
02:51I need to be getting Tiger Woods in his prime.
02:55I can't get the current version of Tiger Woods that's basically like Anakin Skywalker
02:59put back together with metal rods and pieces and whatnot.
03:02Yeah, we'd say that for any of these, I would say just, yeah, it's in their prime.
03:06And it's, you know, give or take 10%, they're all capable of doing it at about the same rate,
03:14let's say.
03:15Yeah.
03:15I still trust Tiger Woods because of being in those moments so often of having a gallery
03:22around you and everything.
03:23It's just the frequency with which he's had to do it and make those important putts is just higher.
03:28I just trust him more.
03:29People weighing in on this, and they agree.
03:32They said, I'd take Tiger with a 12-foot putt, not just a 6-foot putt.
03:35Well, that's just dumb.
03:36Then you're getting your head lopped off.
03:39You want to die if you're doing that.
03:41Yeah, you're like someone who tries to cheat death.
03:43Yeah.
03:43You better hope that Tiger is sober.
03:45Yeah, that's definitely part of the assumption is that Tiger is clear-minded going into that putt.
03:53Someone said knowing Seth's luck, Tiger Woods would show up drunk.
03:57Yeah.
03:57I don't think Seth is a bad luck person.
03:59Tiger made 33% of his 12-foot putts.
04:02Oh, wow.
04:02That's a really bad decision by you.
04:04That's a horrible decision.
04:06Someone says messy all day.
04:07My buddy who saw me tweet this said messy.
04:11It's a luck.
04:12Messy, though, is I guess some of the penalty kick is just the luck of whether the goalie guesses right
04:17or not.
04:17That's the whole thing.
04:18It's the goalie guessing which direction.
04:19I don't need that.
04:20I don't want any guess.
04:21I don't want any.
04:22Yeah, I don't want just random because that damn goalie decides to happen to make the right decision on that,
04:28that I get my head lopped off.
04:29That's right.
04:29That's right.
04:30This is a question, though.
04:31Okay, but do these guys know that your life hangs in the balance?
04:35That's a good question.
04:36They might not like us.
04:37You know?
04:38I could see.
04:39If LeBron listened to this show, I could see him just tanking that free throw.
04:43Yeah.
04:44You know?
04:44So that's a good question.
04:46Vinatieri, you've also got to rely on the holder and the wall snap to get it right, too.
04:52More moving parts.
04:53Yeah.
04:53I think Tiger's the easy choice for me.
04:56All right.
04:56Payton Pendergast with you.
04:57I would have put LeBron last, though.
04:59You would have?
05:00Yeah.
05:01I would go Woods, Vinatieri, Messi, LeBron.
05:04You put Vinatieri all the way up at two, huh?
05:07Mm-hmm.
05:07Yeah, he's clutch.
05:08I can see that.
