Final month, former NFL receiver Brandon Stokley caddied for his former quarterback, Peyton Manning, on the BMW Championship Professional-Am in Colorado.
Right here’s hoping it went higher than final time.
Stokley, the two-time Tremendous Bowl champ, was the visitor on the most recent episode of GOLF’s Subpar Podcast, which was recorded earlier than the BMW Championship teed off on Aug. 22. Within the episode they talked about his upcoming loop for Manning and in addition about his preliminary caddie gig with him, which was a number of years in the past, again on the AT&T Pebble Seaside Professional-Am.
“I by no means raked so many bunkers in my life,” Stokley stated on the podcast. “The climate was completely terrible. I felt like I used to be enjoying receiver for him. He was yelling at me like each different gap to seize my rain gear, the place’s my umbrella, after which unexpectedly the solar would come out, he’s throwing the rain gear down. I’m like 50-70 yards behind making an attempt to get the whole lot collectively. I believe it was [Phil] Mickelson behind us, and I don’t know the best way to rake bunkers correctly. I’m like, Oh my gosh, Mickelson goes to yell at me; I’m not raking this factor proper. Peyton is yelling at me concerning the umbrella. It was a whole catastrophe.”
On the ultimate day they performed Pebble Seaside Golf Hyperlinks, and Stokley had a message for his pal and former quarterback.
“I advised him the final day, ‘If you happen to go into one other rattling bunker, I’m out, I stop, I’m completed, I’m completed,’” he stated. “I used to be bored with raking bunkers.”
Though is there an opportunity Stokley was exaggerating concerning the week? Subpar co-host Colt Knost texted Manning earlier than the podcast to ask him what Stokley would possibly say about him.
“He’s going to throw me below the bus for hitting in all these bunkers,” Manning advised him.
