Eavesdropping: Phil Mickelson And Bones

If you've watched enough golf over the years, you've surely noticed the prolonged discussions caught on microphone between Phil Mickelson and his longtime caddie Jim "Bones" Mackay.

Phil: "Shoot."
Bones: "Shake it off. We'll get it right back on this hole."
Phil: "No, it's not that. I forgot to DVR 'The Bachelor' for Amy. I'm such an idiot!"
