No Days Off: Mike Garafolo Broke The Brandon Aiyuk Trade Request News While Playing Golf, Continued To Bomb Drives During Interviews

I know we all like to make fun of the Woj, Shams, etc's of the world who break news that we're all going to find out in a couple minutes anyways. They all need to be first and have a source off. But this? This is how you do it. Mike Garafolo isn't going to let some Brandon Aiyuk trade news stop him from getting his round in: 

Talk about some pressure shots. I still think the shot with the most pressure is when the group in front of you lets you play through. Guarantee someone in your group will shank a shot or top one off the tee box to about 18 yards. Easiest guarantee in life. But then there's the golfers on the Internet. No one and I mean no one is more ruthless about your swing or game than someone on Twitter. Now you're doing an interview while trying to break 90. 

I love the move. Don't let work get in the way of a round. What if it's a career round? Welcome to 2024, you can do anything from the golf course. I've seen friends take a call, run a meeting, hell I've blogged from the course before. Content never sleeps. For Mike Garafolo it's breaking that Brandon Aiyuk wants a trade. That's not going to stop him from hitting a ball that'll play.
