Welcome back to the Spin Out. I'm Jefferson. Alongside me as always the one with all the holes in his game, Swiss Cheese, and we're the Disc Golf World. Wow. I'm kind of surprised we have things to talk about. I came into this session thinking, "Shit, dude. What are we going to do?" But we we're pulling something out. Yeah, it always provides. We have the Puerto Rico tournament. Shout out Go Throw keeping us entertained. Player Awards officially being announced on DGPT. We voted for those ones. Some ticket sales stuff and whatever else we rambled on to. But jumping first into it, Player Awards. And talking about respect, do you think Missy Gannon was absolutely robbed for the Player of the Year award? No, I don't like I wouldn't say like the way you put it sounded like it was a crime. Like That's the way That's what I was trying to do. So we're good. I wouldn't go that far. Could I see why some people would be upset? Sure, but I think that's like chalked up to a little bit of fandom and a little bit Like this was a tight race. Like Allen had the best average performance, points. Yeah, the I think the only argument to be had is like the majors. The majors, yes. Not having a major hurt. Hurt, yes. So that's I can get behind that argument. The rest, not so much. And part of that is it's subjective. Yes, we blanketly say that majors are worth more, but we don't really have criteria to base off that. So if someone might just be like, "Nah, screw that. I'm just going to vote Holland. Five wins is better." More domination, top of the DGPT standings. More wins. Like just pure eye test. Like I think this person's better and they had a better season. I get it. I I I just don't man, I don't know if it's a rob when you say like the top two candidates this Even if you thought they were one of the top two candidates won, right? I think heading in it was Yeah, robbery might not have been the best way to frame it. And it wasn't that their points were Man, you really? I don't know. Did she come in third? I I'm taking it how far? Can you even see that?...
