Adidas is going to begin negotiations to sell of parts of its golf business. Flop or fly, Aaron? I say fly, it's not their core business. They got to get the sneaker business right. They had some good guidance this week or last week, excuse me, about the Euro Cup Soccer and the Olympics, they need to focus on their core business, where they're getting beaten by Nike and increasingly Under Armour. Ryan. Yeah, I agree it's a fly in terms of strategy for Adidas to admit that it was a mistake and that the golf business is getting worse. Young people aren't playing golf. Numbers are declining. It's been a huge flop to bet on golf, but it's a fly to let it go. I agree with you guys. It says a lot about the state of golf. And these are brands, Taylor Made, Adams, and Ashworth. So [ INAUDIBLE ]. And they'll probably be better on their own. Right. Maybe. Number two. Google and Fiat are going to collaborate to make self driving minivans. Flop or fly? Brian? Flop I gotta go flop. If I'm going to suffer the indignity of owning a minivan at least let me drive it. I mean the other thing is there's all these polls recently, I mean this just came up a second ago with Tesla, Silicon Valley thinks we're all going to hand over driving to the computers and everything Most Americans are kinda dubious about this. And they wanna keep driving. And they don't wanna trust the computers. So, I'm saying flop. Aaron? I have to go with fly. As someone who's currently leasing a minivan. I knew it. I knew one of your two cars was a minivan. I have four kids. [ LAUGH ] Yes, I have a minivan. [ LAUGH ] Cuz we have three young kids. And what else are you gonna transport them with? And I can't tell you how many times Whoever is in the passenger seat, whether it's me or my wife we find ourselves climbing into the backseat to help some kid with something. If the car is gonna drive itself then one of us can take the kids out. But, I think it's gonna fly just in time for Mother's Day. I think it's a smart deal. I think it will fly too. All right. And lastly satellite TV provider Dish Network is getting into the iPhone repair business. It's smart phone repair will dispatch technicians to repair cracked screens, etc. In 50 states, flop or fly? Brian. Flop. I don't get this at all. [ LAUGH ] Me neither. I don't get like why they wanna be in this business, so like how they can possibly make any money or get any return, and why I would call Dish to fix my phone, my precious iPhone. I don't get it. Aaron. I'm gonna go with fly just cuz it's one of those so crazy it just might work. I agree like why would you call Dish to do it, but Dish says we are in the business of sending technicians to people's houses to fix things, so we know how to do that And maybe instead of, you know, it's like anything else people want stuff deliver to them. Instead of having to go somewhere to get your phone fixed, if someone's gonna come to me and the price is right. Why not? But I. I think it's only a flawed because we're talking about it right now. [ LAUGH ] Yeah. Exactly. [ CROSSTALK ] They got us talking about this, that's right. Speaking of what we're talking about. We have some comments from Facebook. On the Fiat question, too small. Consumers won't trust this brand. Interesting, what's interesting is they chose Fiat to partner with and not one of the other two. and then on the same question, Gootfly, Google will end up taking over massive market share, and I kind of agree on that one. I agree too. But Fiat [ INAUDIBLE ], they know how to make cars. And I think that I wouldn't bet against them as opposed to anybody else, in terms of who's gonna do driverless technology well. Getting back to the dish thing. To me, that sounds like Uber meets Geek Squad. Right, because. They've got that last mile because of their connection to the network. But Uber's doing a lot of that stuff. And Geek Squad does it. Best Buy. Best Buy. Didn't say Best Buy. Geek Squad. So, I can't- Although I love these services. I am a customer of some of them. Are you calling Dish? Not Dish. Probably Geek Squad though. If you have, that screen cracks, you might like to use one of those? But Task Rabbit. I use Task Rabbit. [ LAUGH ]
