1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Middle of the week Wednesday, we are turning the page

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: from the Miami Dolphins at some point today and getting

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: ready for the Denver Broncos over at Lucas Oil Stadium.

4
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: The Indiana Fever bring to an end their regular season,

5
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: one of the most successful in franchise history. Good morning everybody, Kevin,

6
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: how you doing today?

7
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: Good morning to you and James.

8
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: Things are good.

9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:19,920
Speaker 3: I'm doing good.

10
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: Mark you wake yet. No, he's struggling with.

11
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 4: Those two days, those last two days of early wake

12
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 4: ups and late nights. They're starting to catch up to me,

13
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 4: starting to feel it a little bit.

14
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,599
Speaker 2: Well, you used to up to like eleven or twelve.

15
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: Every night, don't you.

16
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 4: Unintentionally it was yesterday. I didn't mean to stay up

17
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 4: that late, but you know, kids went to bed early.

18
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 4: I'm like, hey, to watch some Peacemaker or something. So

19
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 4: I watched like three episodes. I'm like, I should have

20
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 4: probably stopped the two.

21
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 5: Tired Bears vikings for a second time.

22
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 4: I'd rather get kicked in the boys than watch that thought.

23
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: Maybe watch a first quarter at least.

24
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 4: First quarter was good, second quarter was good, and then yeah,

25
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 4: second half no, thank you?

26
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: All right, So we're off and running on a Wednesday Today.

27
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: We've got a lot going on, getting ready for more

28
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: NFL football coming up this weekend. The way it works again,

29
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: more NFL tomorrow night already. We'll talk about that in

30
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: a minute. But last night, guys, James, I'll start with you,

31
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: the Indiana Fever most wins in a season in franchise history.

32
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: I realized that the best player maybe in the league

33
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: wasn't playing for Minnesota last night. But the Fever just

34
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: handled the Links and improved a twenty four and twenty

35
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: heading into the postseason and a year of the forty

36
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: four games in the regular season, of which Caitlyn Clerk

37
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: missed thirty one.

38
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's a remarkable feat just because you have

39
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 3: so many people that got injured this season, some people

40
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 3: out for the season. The season record thing is always

41
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 3: funny to me as well, though, because it's like, well, yeah,

42
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: you know, you didn't play forty four games five years ago,

43
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: so you know, context is everything, but still to be

44
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 3: a four games above five hundred to end the year

45
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 3: is nothing sort of remarkable considering everything had to overcome.

46
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: And now we kind of wait, the Fever are the

47
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: sixth seed if the Links beat the Valkyries tomorrow. They're

48
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: the seventh seed if they beat If the Links, I'm sorry,

49
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: if the Valkyries win on Thursday, So we will see

50
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 3: how that all kind of shakes out. I mean, they

51
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 3: can get the Dream or the Aces in the first round.

52
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 3: And if you're asking me, I would rather see the

53
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 3: Dream because the Aces have won fifteen straight and they

54
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 3: might have the MVP again in Asia. Wilson.

55
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, crazy stuff, And Kevin, when you think about it,

56
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: I know it sounds repetitive. We've talked about it, but really,

57
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: twenty four and twenty in a league that only has

58
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: thirteen teams, which means a lot of teams are stacked

59
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: with two, three, sometimes even four really good players. To

60
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: have five players over the course of the year out

61
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: for the season with injury, including arguably your best player,

62
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: really is remarkable that this team is four games over

63
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: five hundred heading into the postseason.

64
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 5: Well, and don't forget the Dewana Bonner drama. Yeah as well,

65
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 5: that was quite the offseason acquisition and quite the exit

66
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 5: for her early in the year. So yes, the Fever

67
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 5: will have a home playoff game. They'll open up on

68
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 5: the road coming up Sunday, and then you know, midweek,

69
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 5: next week, Tuesday, I think maybe right around there they

70
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 5: will have a home playoff game. So great, great job

71
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 5: by Stephanie White and company. You know, we have Pat

72
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 5: Boyling on yesterday. I was just kind of like, Pat,

73
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 5: let's leave it open ended. You tell us about this roster,

74
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 5: because that's kind of where you're at once you get

75
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 5: past the Mitchell's, the Boston's, the Halls. I think Natasha

76
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 5: Howard fans have grown to know over the season, so

77
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 5: hell of a year, and I just think it's been

78
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 5: cool to have Kelsey Mitchell get more of the frontline moment.

79
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 5: She is such a decorated score she was in college,

80
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 5: she has been in the WNBA. She is easily one

81
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 5: of the best, probably outside of Tamika Ketching is the

82
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 5: best player ever to put on a Fever uniform. Obviously,

83
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 5: you know, careers for Kaitlin Clark and Leo Boston will

84
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 5: will continue to happen. But set the all time franchise

85
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 5: record for most points per game in a season last

86
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 5: night in Eclipse in twenty. So I think that's been

87
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 5: a fun story this season of her getting her flowers,

88
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 5: her getting her due because she's a hell of a player.

89
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: I also think it's remarkable that people have been showing

90
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: up all season long. I know Caitlyn Clark was initially

91
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: the draw, but it feels like the fans of the

92
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: Fever have kind of fallen in love with this team

93
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: and they've kept supporting them. They keep showing up, and

94
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: I know Caitlin's on the bench every night, but it's

95
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,119
Speaker 1: just amazing to me. Again, yesterday, I was out walking

96
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: around at lunchtime and I saw twenty two T shirts

97
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: jerseys Fever T shirts and jerseys and hats and stuff

98
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: all over downtown last night. Regardless whether Caitlyn's been there

99
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: or not, this year, the fans have shown up to

100
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:33,799
Speaker 1: support this team.

101
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're probably the most popular team in the WNBA,

102
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 3: and I'm very curious to see how they'll utilize that

103
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 3: popularity with perhaps playing at different venues. I know we

104
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 3: threw it out there months ago about could they have

105
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 3: a game of Lucas Oil Stadium. No one ever really

106
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 3: gave a straight answer on that, but I would love

107
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 3: to experience something like that. But nevertheless, Yeah, it's just different.

108
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 3: I mean I remember covering the team a couple of

109
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 3: years ago pre Leah Boston, pre Kaitlyn Clark when Kelsey

110
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 3: Mitchell was the one, you know, kind of putting team

111
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 3: on her back, and it was tough with some dark days,

112
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 3: dark moments for the franchise. But you look up now

113
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 3: and they're smiling and dancing, and we'll see if they

114
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 3: can keep dancing now they're into the playoffs.

115
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see, Kevin. Now, low key, you're you've been

116
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,840
Speaker 1: kind of disappointed in the Irish and you're keeping expectations down.

117
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: But I also know that each of the days this

118
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: week you've been showing up with Notre Dame either hat

119
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: or T shirt or something else. Is that just because

120
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: that's what's in the closet or are you kind of

121
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: low key still really excited about this football season? Uh?

122
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 5: Probably more the former. I'm a loser, and that's like

123
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 5: ninety percent of my apparel, Okay, fair enough, fast.

124
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 3: Offield wearing the Illinois hoodies and stuff like. It's not

125
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: really a conscious choice in the morning. You just grab

126
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 3: what's clean and ye out the door.

127
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 5: I think Maddie's generally pretty disgusted of how much Notre

128
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 5: Dame apparel I own and choose to wear. So yeah,

129
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 5: I guess I am still excited I do feel like

130
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 5: it's been a while. They have Texas A and M

131
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 5: coming up Saturday night in South Bend. That is a

132
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 5: rematch of last year's opening Notre Dame one down there

133
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 5: in College Station, so h yeah, I can't wait. And

134
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 5: if they win this one, that'll be four straight over

135
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 5: the SEC, which for Notre Dame that sounds something they've

136
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 5: said a whole lot.

137
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 2: And Purdue off to the two and oh start.

138
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: We've talked about that this week, but they got a

139
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: big test coming up this weekend, James. Because USC not

140
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: the powerhouse that they've been in past years or anything,

141
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: but still pretty. They now want to put points up

142
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: on the board and that could be dangerous for a

143
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: team like Produce.

144
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that'd be interesting one for sure to check out.

145
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 3: And then I think this is kind of like most

146
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 3: college teen You get that first real test. Okay, the

147
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 3: cupcakes are out of the way a little bit, how

148
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 3: you look in your first conference game? And so I

149
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 3: am excited to see what the Purdue Boilermakers can do,

150
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 3: and they're trying to do something special. So it's hardy

151
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 3: be a two wins. I mean, you're probably feel a

152
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 3: lot better than where this time last year, right, double

153
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 3: the total?

154
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 6: Right?

155
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, feel like.

156
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 3: Not to troll, but I mean you got to start somewhere,

157
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 3: and they started it off pretty pretty strong here.

158
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 5: Well, I think they know about produce so far because

159
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 5: they are definitely not very talented. I thought I saw

160
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 5: they were the least penalized team so far in the

161
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 5: Big Ten and they only have one turnover help for

162
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,359
Speaker 5: two games, so you know it just again, I know

163
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 5: that my tin elementary, but frankly under Ryan Walters, they

164
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 5: didn't even look like that at times. So is that

165
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 5: a step in the right direction? Now? Look, I mean

166
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 5: they're a twenty one point underdog. I said to you

167
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 5: guys yesterday, that is beyond disrespectful, unranked team traveling three

168
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 5: time zones and they're a twenty one point favorite in

169
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 5: your own building. And of course last year it was

170
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 5: all this hype around the Notre Dame game and then

171
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 5: what happened. We obviously know how that game went and

172
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 5: how the rest of the season unfolded there. So it

173
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 5: should be a fun day up there in Westlofie. Hat

174
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 5: another honor and the Rose Bull team from twenty five

175
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,559
Speaker 5: years ago, and they get the CBS slot. I think

176
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 5: is that their former quarterback. Is that Gary Danielson and

177
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 5: that three thirty window there for Purdue and USC.

178
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: Been a minute, but yeah, I think so. I have

179
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: to look and double check, but I think I think

180
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: I might have read that earlier.

181
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 5: We had him on last year prior to that Notre

182
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 5: Dame game from the.

183
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: Rest game did yep? Good stuff.

184
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 4: I put a friendly wager on Perdue and the points

185
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 4: spread a little bit of.

186
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 5: The ball thing.

187
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: What constitutes a friendly wager?

188
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 4: Well, I'm friendly because I put my on Purdue, which

189
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 4: I'm on produce football, which I normally wouldn't do. But

190
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 4: at twenty one and a half points, fright is just

191
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 4: kind of crazy to me. So I'm like, Okay, let's

192
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 4: have some fun on a Tuesday that I did.

193
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: I like that, and we're gonna be talking about Purdue

194
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: a little bit later on what's our guest situation this morning?

195
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 4: Mark a usual Wednesday guest Steven Holder going to stop

196
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 4: by at the top of the hour at eight o'clock

Speaker 4: to discuss Colts Dolphins as well as preview Cult Broncos,

198
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 4: and then Tom Deanhart going to join us at the

199
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 4: bottom of the eight o'clock hour to preview that very game.

200
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 4: We're just discussing.

201
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: I like it and I'm just curious too for you

202
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: the friendly wagers. What five ten dollars? What's that go?

203
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 7: Yeah?

204
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 4: I mean we had a listener that was like, I

205
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 4: had a pretty good week one and I was. I mean,

206
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 4: he won thousands of dollars in some of these bets,

207
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 4: but he was also throwing down like forty fifty dollars

208
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 4: a bet. I'm like, boy, I'm not even in that range.

209
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: Five bucks there, James Boyd stuff right there, but I

210
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: put ten dollars.

211
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 3: Look, I love you, but you know, unlike the gods

212
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 3: left of me, I don't have rooms. You can stay

213
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 3: it in my house, So you better make sure that

214
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 3: you cash on of these bets. All right.

215
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 1: We got a lot to today, a lot of football

216
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: on tap, a little bit more about the fever, advancing

217
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: to the WNBA playoffs, A nice little nugget to tell

218
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: you about Major League Baseball coming up in just a

219
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: moment we check things down. But we're off and running

220
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday up day. Here at ninety three five

221
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: and one o seven five the fans, Happy Wednesday morning,

222
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: Welcome into the Fan Morning Show. Ninety three five one

223
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: oh seven five the fan, we will start over at

224
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: the Fieldhouse. Last night, the regular season comes to a

225
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: close for the Indiana Fever in their WNBA season twenty

226
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: four and twenty on the year, they close it out

227
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: with an eighty three seventy two win over Minnesota first

228
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 1: time all year. James Boyd that the Links have been

229
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: beaten wired a wire. Fever started out with a ten

230
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: to nothing run and never trailed in the game.

231
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that certainly helps when you don't have to face

232
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 3: MVP candidate and the FeSi Collier. But nevertheless, it is

233
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 3: a big win for the Fever, who are now between

234
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 3: the six or seventh seed. Will find out officially tomorrow

235
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 3: what seed they land, and again they can play the

236
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 3: Aces or the Dream, and I'll prefer the Dream because

237
00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 3: the Aces have been rolling lately.

238
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: Having five Fever players in double figures. Kelsey Mitchell had

239
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: eighteen a lee of Austin twelve points, eight boards, Natasha

240
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 1: Howard had ten points, seven rebounds, and Odyssey Simms continues

241
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: to be a revelation. She scored fifteen points last night

242
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: getting a start.

243
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, former high pick Pat Boon hit on her and

244
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 5: kind of her story, you know, unlike some of these others.

245
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 5: She definitely had a decorated resume before coming here. I

246
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 5: saw the clip Chloe Peterson from The Star covers his

247
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 5: Fever tweet out last night of Sidney Coulson grabbing the

248
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 5: mic there to start the fourth quarter from our guy

249
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 5: b Swift and getting the crowd ready for the postseason.

250
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 5: I did have to love that moment there. So, yes,

251
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 5: a home playoff game for the first time in a

252
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 5: long time to the Fever, and I think is that Tuesday,

253
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 5: Wednesday something next week?

254
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, they haven't announced those yet. It's likely that the

255
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: playoffs would start Sunday for the Fever.

256
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 2: We don't have confirmation on Sunday.

257
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: Yes, well Sunday is for sure, but then we don't

258
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: know if it's gonna be Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on

259
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: what the schedule is made up of and who gets

260
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: what seed and things like that. So hopefully we'll know

261
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 1: the next forty eight hours or so exactly how that's

262
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: going to roll. But playoff basketball for the Indiana Fever,

263
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: despite the fact that Caitlin Clark missed the two thirds

264
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: of the season, basically.

265
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 5: Still best of three format in round one. I know

266
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 5: they've changed best of seven for the finals, but it

267
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 5: will be that best of three. So somehow, some way

268
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 5: you can go get game one on the road, Oh boy,

269
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 5: game two in your own building to close it out

270
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 5: would be a hell of an atmosphere, all right.

271
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: Yesterday day off of the Indianapolis Coults as they get

272
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: ready to host the Denver Broncos at Lucas Oil Stadium

273
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: on Sunday.

274
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: Right now, the Colts.

275
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: Are two and a half point underdogs, and the over

276
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: under on this one is forty two and a half.

277
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: And I think I like the under on that one

278
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: right now. The way the Broncos defense played last week,

279
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: and the way their offense played as well, and the

280
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: way the defense came through for the Colts, we might

281
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 1: be looking at one of those twenty thirteen defensive struggles

282
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,319
Speaker 1: in this one.

283
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 5: I would guess forty two is probably one of the

284
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 5: lower over unders in the entire ennit I still like

285
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 5: it in Week two, so yes, the Denver team, I mean,

286
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 5: they were one of the best sacking teams the entire

287
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 5: NFL last season. They brought back virtually everybody. Six different

288
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 5: guys sacked cam Ward in Week one in their win

289
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 5: there Tennessee. Despite that, really hung in there and they

290
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 5: got some short fields. Denver turned it over quite a

291
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 5: bit there, so I think it's gonna be a really

292
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 5: good matchup again. Four o'clock window here for the Colts

293
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 5: and Broncos coming up in week two. We'll see where

294
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 5: the Cults are at healthwise. They did sign a cornerback

295
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 5: to their practice squad yesterday again Mooney Ward and concussion

296
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 5: protocol Jaalen Jones, So noth an official on that, but

297
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 5: I would expect him to miss some time with the

298
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 5: reinjury of his hamstring.

299
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: All right, off to a one and oh start for

300
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: the first time since twenty thirteen. So in college football

301
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: news to tell you about. It's not really football news,

302
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: but James, I thought of you when I saw this yesterday.

303
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 1: An alum and the son of an alum at Illinois,

304
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: Larry Gez. Have you ever heard of him?

305
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 2: Geez gi ees?

306
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: I never heard any of the people who donate his

307
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: money one hundred million dollars he donated to the Illinois

308
00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 3: athletic program.

309
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: They're gonna name the stadium after him.

310
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 3: Now, Yeah, I got a kick out of somebody texting

311
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 3: the chat line or the text line I'm sorry, and

312
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 3: they were a screenshoted that announcement and told me, hey, James,

313
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 3: is that you And I was like, no chance. You know,

314
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 3: they're getting my monthly installments of my student loan payments,

315
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 3: and I'm hoping they put that towards something good, like,

316
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 3: you know, maybe a cup holder or something like that

317
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 3: in this new stadium. But yeah, it's pretty crazy because again,

318
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 3: when I was in school, football team was terrible, men's

319
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 3: basketball was terrible, women's basketball was terrible, and all three

320
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 3: programs now are rolling in very good. So shout out

321
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 3: to my alma manor well.

322
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 2: A lot of money being thrown around by those who

323
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: have it.

324
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: Yesterday, the Broncos announced that they are going to build

325
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: a brand new stadium in Denver. It's going to be

326
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: privately funded by the Walton Penner family and no taxpayer

327
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: money involved whatsoever. And they're actually going to tear down

328
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: the stadium that they have right now and get the

329
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 1: land back to the city and County of Denver private money.

330
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I never really hear this from

331
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 3: owners or anybody for that matter, when it comes to

332
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: buildings or stadium so respect.

333
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: I hear a bunch of owners in the NFL going

334
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: why are you doing that? Yeah, it s for real.

335
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 2: They got that Walmart I.

336
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 3: Was gonna sell like the Bears aren't doing the same thing.

337
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 2: Mark, Hell, no one other NFL note.

338
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: Jalen Carter is going to uh basically get time served.

339
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: They said the game he missed without playing a game

340
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: the other night after spitting the moment, is uh is

341
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: enough one game suspension?

342
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 4: It was like fifty four thousand dollars fine or whatever.

343
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 4: It's like, yeah, that.

344
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: Was weak, Yeah, take his game check. But I think

345
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: that is extremely weak for them to tell us, Oh,

346
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 3: he actually was suspended already. No, he wasn't. He came

347
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 3: with their play a game. He acted like a dummy,

348
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 3: and he got thrown out of that game. He was

349
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 3: dressed to play like. He was so dumb in that

350
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 3: moment that he got suspended before he could register a snap.

351
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 3: So I get it. There were some of historical presidents.

352
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 3: They usually don't suspend gods for spinning, but set a

353
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 3: new president in my opinion, so I had to read

354
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 3: that notification twice, Kevin, because I got so confused at first.

355
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 5: No, I would agree wholeheartedly with you, James, and I

356
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,359
Speaker 5: was surprise they didn't viewed as an opportunity to reset

357
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 5: the president. That surprised me a bit there, So yeah,

358
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 5: and then he had just kind of this pr spin

359
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 5: with Rosenhaus and a chef.

360
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 3: I saw that.

361
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 2: All of it just seemed.

362
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, wait a second. His guarantees in his contract

363
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 3: won't be affected by this, and I'm like, and if

364
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 3: they were, he's spent on somebody.

365
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 5: But nevertheless, yeah, just all real, real mercy to me.

366
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 2: Ah, not good.

367
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: We were talking about the US men's national team in

368
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: soccer yesterday and they did get a win over Japan

369
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: last night too, nothing at the lower dot Com Field

370
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: just east of US in Columbus, Ohio. But Mauricio Pockettino,

371
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: the head coach, the manager, saying he's upset that people

372
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 1: are taking shots of his players.

373
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: Quote.

374
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: I prefer that people criticize me, but don't touch the player.

375
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: I hope in the future criticized me, criticize me, but

376
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: let the players play free go and perform well. Keep

377
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: winning two to nothing and nobody will be mad.

378
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 3: So we need that. Stephen A. Smith meme Mark Woods like,

379
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 3: we don't care at all.

380
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball.

381
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: This will give you something to care about before we

382
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: get to the local scores. Kyle Scorber, Indiana's own, becomes

383
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: the first National League player to hit fifty home runs

384
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: this season last night. He is just on fire?

385
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 3: Isn't this Ryan Howard territory?

386
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 5: It was the second Hilly player, right besides Ryan Howard

387
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 5: to reach that mark. There, it's remarkable shore Over.

388
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 2: The legend continues.

389
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, they Phillies did beat the Mets by a score

390
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: of nine to three last night. Meanwhile, Cups did get

391
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: a win six to one over the Braves. While you

392
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: were watching other kinds of TV, did you pay attention

393
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: to the baseball game?

394
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 4: All saw that they won. I was like, very good.

395
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 4: That's what you should do against a bottom tier team

396
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 4: in the Braves this year. So take care of business.

397
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: All right? Think of rolling snapped a three game losing streets.

398
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 5: Sound like you're treating the Cubs like you treat one

399
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 5: of your daughter's potty training. Yep sounds yep, good job.

400
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 4: All three are potty train I threw the last little

401
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 4: like seated thing. I threw it in the garbage today

402
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 4: for garbage day.

403
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: Get out of here.

404
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 5: We don't need it any What a great feeling.

405
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: I know, my second favorite player in base about Pete

406
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: Crow Armstrong had a couple of RBIs in that game.

407
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 5: When you're a Reds fan and your second favorite player

408
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 5: is a Cub.

409
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: Who's my favorite player? Who's my favorite player? I don't care.

410
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 5: You can't be having still respecting your guy respect and

411
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 5: calling him your second favorite player are two very different things.

412
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: I love the way he plays baseball is that okay,

413
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: the loyalty marks isat here.

414
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 5: He's like, well, Ellie dayla Cruz is my second favorite player.

415
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 2: I hope that. I hope that every time they played

416
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 2: the Reds that he goes over.

417
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 5: Four Colts fans.

418
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 4: It was my second favorite player speaking of Elie de

00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 4: la Cruz.

420
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 1: Only was it long, but it was deep and wide

421
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:39,959
Speaker 1: people excited. Reds did beat the Podreys late last night

422
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 1: by a score of four two. They probably just finished

423
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: that up right before we came to the studio.

424
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 4: That would be like me saying, like, you know who

425
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 4: I really like outside of the Cubs, that Paul Goldschmidt

Speaker 1: over the Iowa Cubs were winners over the Indianapolis Indians

477
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: seven nothing and eleven innings last night. How about that?

478
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: You don't get seven nothing and eleven innings very often,

479
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 1: but not usually.

480
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,959

Speaker 1: Cycling Championship. The school I happened to attend in college

501
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: is also a cycling powerhouse.

502
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 2: I happen to know the coach. They always sent a

503
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 2: large contingent to folks.

504
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 1: I don't know, eight to ten writers on each side,

505
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: the male and female side. Last time we hosted the men.

506
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: This time, the women will stay at our house. Man,

507

Speaker 1: when I go homenight, my house is going to be

508
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,320

509
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 5: What, I just can't talk thinking about your high school age.

00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: So I know they're gonna have a time of their lot.

511

00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 4: for how long at your house?

515
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: Probably five days?

516
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 4: Five days for a dozen strangers.

517
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 3: The gentleman here love Island from his house. No, I'm

518

00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 2: Okay I am, but not like fully gonna judge you.

520
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: I've gotten no some of these kids over the years,

521
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: some of the coolest people, of how cool.

522
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 4: They are, and I've played in my house.

523
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 2: Get the hell out of you.

524
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 5: Much rather prefer to be in a hotel if I were,

525
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 5: it sounds horrific to me.

526
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 4: How many people are in your house currently before the

527
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 4: Bakers doesn't come, how many?

528
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 6: How many?

529
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 4: Currently? Seventeen people?

530
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 5: Unless you bought Jim Merces a saint, it sounds like Jem's.

531
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: Doing pretty well. Audise rooms you got. It's another bejeweled

532
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 1: the dazzling lifestyles of the rich and famous.

533
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 3: You get a picture with you just sitting in the

534
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 3: middle of everybody. Sure, yeah, sure, this is going to

535
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 3: be like him on like The Bachelor or something, The Golden.

536
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 1: Bachelor, Leslie, will you accept this?

537
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 6: Rose? I am a.

538
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 2: Happily married man.

539
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: Just so you know, Mark Techton how that works. As

540
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: it turned out, only six women this year. I got

541
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: home last night taking Grant around and tennis practice and

542
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, and by the time we

543
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: got home there were six college cyclists there and they

544
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: were making themselves dinner. My oldest son, James was just

545
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: buried in trigonometry last night. His mom was over there

546
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: in the corner helping him study. Right there, Grant had

547
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: calculus to do. There was not a lot of interaction

548
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: between the two.

549
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 3: Boys, and thoroughly disappoint young women, terrely disappointed.

550
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 2: What do you think is going on there?

551
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 3: I mean, you can at least say what's up. I'm

552
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 3: not gonna be that, you know, I'm definitely gonna be

553
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 3: that involved with trigonometry to not say hello to the

554
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 3: women in my kitchen.

555
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: There's no way jakeson a.

556
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 4: Small window of opportunity here.

557
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: Impresses are everything.

558
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 4: Never gonna see these women ever again.

559
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: You have to know my youngest two, Grant, who's he's

560
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: very He's totally a math guy. Math and science are

561
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: his thing. And I was kind of teasing him telling

562
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: what we were talking about yesterday and said, I don't

563
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: know about he got all these all these young women

564
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: in the house this week, and he goes, Dad, I'm

565
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: a junior. I don't think I'm gonna go for anybody

566
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 1: over eighteen. Sixteen to eighteen is my range.

567
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 5: She says, So there you go.

568
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 3: I'll let you go.

569
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 1: Boy.

570
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 4: We're gonna do a cougar exposition here.

571
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 5: Is that what it is to be seventeen and be

572
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 5: picky as hell?

573
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 4: I didn't have that luxury.

574
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 3: All I'm saying is if I got little hallwork, happily

575
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 3: take what I I have some college students around, I'm

576
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 3: going to ask for help.

577
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, anybody trigonomegy before I have a question.

578
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 5: Exactly study buddy, Jeff. I didn't go on Denver Radio yesterday.

579
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 5: I believe maybe your old college colleague, Jim Davis, is

580
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 5: that is that correct?

581
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 2: Does that?

582
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 5: Does that ring a bell at all?

583
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 2: Like Grand Junction, Colorado?

584
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,959
Speaker 5: Yor yeaheah and he uh. He asked if you were

585
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 5: still in the cycling game, and I brought up that

586
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 5: you were definitely.

587
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: Don't get to run much anymore, maybe a couple of

588
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: times a week, but yeah, we definitely are.

589
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: Sholding people out the story.

590
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 5: Basically, I pretty much played the clip that Mark just

591
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 5: played right there for Jim, and he was very happy

592
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 5: that you were hosting there you go Colorado Mesa Cyclers.

593
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they'll be if if you're interested in that

594
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 1: kind of thing over at the Major Taylor Belodrome over

595
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: there near Maryn University starting tomorrow, it will be all

596
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 1: kinds of stuff going on out there, So it'll be

597
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: a lot of fun if you're into that. If you're

598
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 1: into that kind of stuff. We also love the National

599
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: Football League. We love the Indianapolis Colts. You guys a

600
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: little put off, like I'm looking through the ESPN Power

601
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: rankings this morning, the Colts were twenty third, twenty third

602
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: after that dominant win over the Miami Dolphins.

603
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 3: I am not surprised. The Dolphins are probably what thirty second,

604
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 3: So at some point you've got to be somebody good

605
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 3: and not time to discredit what the Colts did, because

606
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,120
Speaker 3: when you face a bad team, it'lls beat them like that.

607
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think you got to do a little

608
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 3: bit more work to climb the rankings.

609
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess I'm a little surprised that their twenty third.

610
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 5: I mean, do we have preseason rankings in the NFL,

611
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 5: like if you're fairly judging people off.

612
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,959
Speaker 3: Weeks necessarily, I guess, but you probably do have some

613
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 3: of those power rankings come into the season, though the

614
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 3: athletic does theirs weekly. There's something to talk about.

615
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 5: You think the Colts should be the favorite right now

616
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 5: to win the AFC South or would you still go

617
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 5: with Houston or Jacksonville?

618
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: Guy, I think we have a small sample size, so

619
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,199
Speaker 1: after a couple of weeks we'll see what it is.

620
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: But right this second, I'd probably go Houston number one,

621
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: just based in the last couple of years. I'm still

622
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 1: not sold on Jacksonville, So I'd probably put Indianapolis second,

623
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 1: and I don't I don't think there's much room for

624
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: anybody else went in that division at this point in time.

625
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 3: Those offensive line issues in Houston look real this past Sunday,

626
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: and I don't want to get ahead of myself, but man,

627
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 3: I'm thinking to myself, how do you fix that quickly

628
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,479
Speaker 3: and shure it up for the entire season? Because when

629
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 3: you go into the season with a bad offensive line,

630
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 3: how many times does it get better? It's usually just

631
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 3: it plays you all year. So you're asking TJ. Shroud,

632
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 3: who I think is a very good young quarterback and

633
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 3: the best quarterback in the division, to do things to

634
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 3: overcome that, and it's very hard, especially when he's not

635
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 3: the super athletic mobile type anyway. I mean, he's mobile

636
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 3: enough to get you some first downs with his legs,

637
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 3: but he's not gonna, you know, do some Lamar Jackson,

638
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,719
Speaker 3: Josh Allen, even Caitler Williams type things to get free

639
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 3: from pressure. So if I had to pick right now,

640
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 3: I'd probably lean maybe towards Jacksonville. I do trust, you

641
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 3: know their quarterback more than Daniel Jones to a degree.

642
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 3: But even then I'm like Trevor Lawrence. He diven looked

643
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 3: great this past Sunday. So I guess the fact that

644
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 3: we're having this conversation, Kevin is a good sign for

645
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 3: what the Colts have done. You want to know, for

646
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:10,719
Speaker 3: the first time in over a decade.

647
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: Certainly you do kind of worry about Jacksonville a little

648
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: bit though with Liam Cohen, and you know they've got

649
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: some good, good skilled position players after it down your

650
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: last year, Like a Tan ran wild this past week

651
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: and he had like one hundred and thirty four yards

652
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 1: running on sixteen carries, didn't he?

653
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, again that is you want to make your

654
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 3: quarterbacks life easier. Run the ball, and so right now

655
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 3: Houston can't do anything and then get one game. But boy,

656
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 3: that was some bleak looking stuff, especially when you spend

657
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 3: all off season preparing for these moments to come out

658
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 3: and land eg like that against the Rams tough.

659
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 1: Well, one thing that's nice when you see what's possible

660
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: for this team for the Annapolis Colts, Kevin, I sit

661
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 1: back and I go, why can't they go at least

662
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: four and two within the division this year? Based on

663
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: just one game? And that's that small sample size that

664
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: we saw. But we know they can run the ball,

665
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,360
Speaker 1: we know they've got terrific skill position players their own,

666
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: and that defense really does look new and improved.

667
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, that to me should be definite. I mean, you

668
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 5: got a rookie quarterback that you should two and zero

669
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 5: over Tennessee, right, and then that means what split Jacksonville

670
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 5: split Houston? Yeah, I think that should be kind of

671
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 5: the baseline frankly with where the Colts are at. By

672
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 5: the way, I do want to give a shout out

673
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 5: to Elsie's Camra Groan at linebacker for the coltslu Anrimo

674
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 5: kind of confirmed this yesterday. We obviously saw it play

675
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 5: out in week one, and while Joe Bachi is the

676
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 5: starter in next to Sire Franklin number forty eight, camer

677
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 5: Groan actually split those snaps right fifty to fifty. I

678
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 5: think each of them had twenty two snaps with the

679
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 5: starting unit on on Sunday. So camer Groan, you know,

680
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 5: follow in the in the likes of you know, going

681
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 5: back a little bit of whatever Ken Dogar, Anthony Johnson

682
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 5: away back in the day, and certainly Joe Wrights, Jack Doyle,

683
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 5: Juju Brentz has started for this team. I know I'm

684
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,959
Speaker 5: probably forgetting some other indie natives, but playing a very

685
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,719
Speaker 5: important role. Camer Groan is out there, and you know

686
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 5: it's it's a great story of a guy that's kind

687
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 5: of been on the practice squad and battled some injuries

688
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 5: and that linebacker rotation has been a question. And I

689
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 5: don't know, James, I don't think like once Jalen Carlis returns,

690
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 5: it's just gonna be Hey, see you later, Joe Bachi

691
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 5: or see you later, Camra Groan. I could see those

692
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 5: two guys still beating in the mix there. So number

693
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 5: fifty nine, that's Camera Groan. Sounds like he will continue

694
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 5: to rotate and play a lead role next to Sire Franklin.

695
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a good dude.

696
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:32,719
Speaker 3: I had a chance to talk to him and get

697
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 3: to know them over the last couple of years in

698
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 3: the locker room, and yeah, he'll tell you. You know

699
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 3: ACL in high school, I believe he towards the other

700
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 3: ACL when he was in college at Michigan dealing with

701
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 3: elbow injuries last year even this year wearing the big brace,

702
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 3: and he was just talking about how after his first injury,

703
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 3: after that he was like, well, I kind of just

704
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 3: built up his mental fortitude to be like, well, if

705
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go out, I'm just gonna go out, hopefully

706
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 3: on my own turns. But I'll never give up on

707
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 3: myself in the process. So you know, it's easier said

708
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 3: than done when you're going through some of those mental

709
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 3: hurdles and you're kind of questioning will your body hold up?

710
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 3: But to see him kind of break through on the

711
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 3: other side and get some return on that investment is

712
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 3: really cool. And he's gonna certainly have an opportunity in

713
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 3: his linebacker room, which outside of Zira Franklin, is just

714
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 3: not very experienced. Now we'll see how they get tested

715
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 3: against better offenses and as the season goes on. But yeah,

716
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 3: shout out to the local product.

717
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 2: I think one thing that we need to start talking

718
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 2: about too.

719
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: We were just basking in the glory of that week

720
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: one win, as we should, and I.

721
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 2: Think it's a fair question.

722
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: I started to read some articles and listening to people

723
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: talking about it, especially in the Miami market last night.

724
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: It's one week we saw its opening week. But Kevin

725
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: Bowen and the Colts, were they that good or they

726
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: that much improved or the Dolphins just a mess right now?

727
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: Or is it really somewhere in between.

728
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 5: I mean, it's probably always a little bit of both.

729
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 5: But you know, when you look at the Colts and

730
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 5: the reasons for Helpe coming into the season, different quarterback,

731
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 5: steadier quarterback, pass catchers, and defense, And if you look

732
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 5: at Week one, I would say emphatically, all three of

733
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 5: those were tremendous. And so that I think is where

734
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 5: you point. It's not like just one of the three

735
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 5: was good, or you know even two of the three

736
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 5: now again all you're gonna get all three every week? No,

737
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 5: probably not, And certainly Miami contribute to it. For Daniel

738
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 5: Jones specifically Miami's corner. I mean, we talked about it

739
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 5: all August.

740
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 2: Guys.

741
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 5: If you guys seen Miami's depth at corner, have you

742
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 5: seen Miami situation in the secondary that obviously is not

743
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 5: gonna be at play Denver secondary for example, very potent?

744
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 5: So you know, this is definitely a different challenge. But

745
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 5: I think you are I think you're discrediting the cults

746
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 5: if you just simply say Miami's horrific. You know, you

747
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 5: don't have to sit here and say the Colts are

748
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 5: gonna go fourteen and three or something.

749
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: Like that, seven straight possessions, But.

750
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 5: To beat an NFL team thirty three to eight is

751
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 5: just not very I mean when the last time the

752
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 5: Colts have won a game by twenty five points.

753
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 3: I don't remember, thought it wasn't last year when we

754
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 3: talked about how they only had one score victories.

755
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 5: Also, I mean, you got to go back again to me,

756
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 5: it was the most impressive game both sides of the

757
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 5: ball since the Buffalo game. Like you could have a

758
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 5: moment or two where it's like, man, did you see

759
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 5: the defense? I was outstanding? Or wow, do you see

760
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 5: the offense? They played really really well, But to get

761
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 5: both of them going at the same time, So yes,

762
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 5: I get that week one can be fools gold and

763
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 5: I fully understand that. And there's no bigger example of

764
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 5: that than the New Orleans Saints from last year. But

765
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 5: at the same time, the thoroughness of what the Colts

766
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 5: did both sides of the ball I think deserves proper credit.

767
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just never ending on both sides of

768
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: the ball. That at no point in time did Miami

769
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: really stop the Colts offense. They may have kicked a

770
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: field goal here or there, but the drives were continuous

771
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: and sustained. Wasn't like they were always gifted with short

772
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: fields either.

773
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 3: I mean it was a nice performance, yeah, And I'm

774
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 3: curious to see how it translates to Denver to push

775
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 3: ahead to look ahead a little bit, because going through

776
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 3: some notes and stats yesterday, so this was fascinating to me.

777
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 3: Denver had six acts of Titans rookie cam Ward in

778
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 3: Week one. Obviously, that is a big number, and they

779
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 3: had six different guys do it. But the crazy part

780
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 3: is they didn't blitz them once they were getting home

781
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 3: with three and four. So if you look at what

782
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 3: the Colts dealt with last week with Miami, Miami blitzed

783
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 3: them more than any team in the league. I believe

784
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 3: it was seventeen or sixteen blitz and you only got

785
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 3: one sack out of that. On Daniel Jones, and I

786
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 3: went back through his log his last six starts in

787
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 3: New York. He was sacked multiple times in all those starts.

788
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 3: One of those starts he was sacked seven times, another

789
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 3: time four times, So like he's not used to having

790
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 3: that amount of time even with pressure coming. And I'm

791
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,479
Speaker 3: curious to see how Denver adjusts to that. Will they

792
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 3: bring more pressure because historically they have I mean vantage Joseph.

793
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 3: He brings pressure. I want to say they were top

794
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 3: ten in pressure last year as far as bringing blitzes.

795
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 3: So what does that look like and how will that

796
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 3: offensive line be tested even more? You know, when you

797
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 3: got for example, Nick Bonito, who we know as a stud,

798
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 3: he's a star, second team All Pro last year, just

799
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 3: got paid like a star, and you're able to he

800
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,760
Speaker 3: generated i believe, nine pressures by himself, again with no blitzes.

801
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 3: So what does that look like when you're up against

802
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 3: a steeper opponent and again advanced Joseph defense, which kind

803
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 3: of like Lou and Roumo, They're gonna throw some different

804
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,240
Speaker 3: things at you. One of the things that I noticed

805
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 3: just watching some of the players back on the All

806
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 3: twenty two film and for those listening All twenty two

807
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 3: was like this, basically like the YouTube version of how

808
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 3: you watch the game, the bird's eye view is kind

809
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:35,439
Speaker 3: of how we put it, where you see all twenty

810
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 3: two players on the screen, and pretty much what you

811
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 3: got pre snap defensively was what you got post snap,

812
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,479
Speaker 3: and Daniel Jones just picked them apart. And I would

813
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 3: imagine that the Broncos throws some different things at him,

814
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 3: because for veteran quarterback, you should be able to, you know,

815
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 3: pick a defensive part if it ever changes after you

816
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,240
Speaker 3: snapped the ball. So some thanks keep in mind going forward.

817
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one thing that Vans Joseph did in that game.

818
00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 1: Probably because Cam Word was a rookie, they only rushed

819
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,359
Speaker 1: for or but man, they were given him all kinds

820
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: of crazy looks in the secondary with six guys sometimes

821
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 1: obviously seven guys in coverage. Sometimes some of the formations

822
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 1: even at the beginning of the line of scrimmage. You're like, oh,

823
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,240
Speaker 1: I don't remember ever seeing something like that. I'm pretty

824
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 1: sure the rookie hasn't either, So that's something to keep

825
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: an eye on too, James.

826
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 5: I think that aspect you just brought up, Daniel Jones

827
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 5: operating with clean pockets, that is probably the Jones area

828
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 5: I can point to as if you really want to

829
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 5: believe Daniel Jones can turn out to be something, it's

830
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 5: that It's now he is working behind a legit offensive line,

831
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 5: whereas in New York he largely wasn't. And certainly the

832
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 5: skill group. I also think you can make a case

833
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 5: is better. But even if you don't want to live

834
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,720
Speaker 5: in the skill group. You know, he had whatever Saquon

835
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 5: Barkley with him in New York. That offensive line aspect,

836
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 5: I think could be the biggest difference because I have.

837
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 3: A crazy staff for you along those lines.

838
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 5: When you see him throw the football, I mean there

839
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 5: is definitely an accuracy element to it, and you know,

840
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 5: arm strength isn't a concern and all of those things. Again,

841
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 5: he was a top ten quarterback for some reasons. Is

842
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 5: that different? You know for me Daniel Jones operating out

843
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 5: of that clean pocket, you know versus New York situation,

844
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 5: that's like whatever. Walking into Jeff Rickard's pantry versus Kevin

845
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 5: Bowen's pantry. I mean, you're gonna live good if you're

846
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 5: in the record household.

847
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 1: Two teenage boys didn't last very long.

848
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 5: You know, you're gonna be scrapping for crumbs in the

849
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 5: old Bowen pantry right now.

850
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 3: I might be scrapping for crumbs that were Jeff's house

851
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 3: later on, because he's got the entire village of you know,

852
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 3: Indianapolis in his house.

853
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: You would think, Mark that I have like the the

854
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,359
Speaker 1: Jim Mersay.

855
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 4: Estate, having seventeen people's planning for seventeen people that I

856
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 4: can't even fathom in my house.

857
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 3: But to your point, Kevin, somebody wants to do a show.

858
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 4: Remok from our house, your house, by the way, I'm like,

859
00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 4: we could do it.

860
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 5: We sleep in the chimney at the bow and household

861
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 5: if we tried to house.

862
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 3: One of the things that I do want to hit.

863
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 3: Did you point it out, Kevin? And I looked this

864
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 3: up yesterday because again I went down a rabbit hole

865
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 3: just to figure out okay, And I'll have a story

866
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 3: come out later today about this. Actually, like how real

867
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 3: is this? How much should we believe? And this was

868
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 3: crazy to me. So during Daniel Jones' tenure in New

869
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 3: York with the Giants, he had sixteen games in which

870
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 3: he at least threw ten passes where he was sacked

871
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 3: five times or more. He had eighteen games where he

872
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 3: was sacked one time or less. So it lets you know,

873
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 3: I mean, to get sacked five times in an NFL

874
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 3: game is a lot that doesn't happen. Even on bad

875
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 3: days for NFL offenses, you rarely get sacked five times.

876
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 3: And for that to happen almost at a one to

877
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 3: one ratio, is you getting sacked one or less, let

878
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,439
Speaker 3: you know what he was dealing with when and again,

879
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 3: some of that might have been him holding the ball,

880
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 3: and there's other circumstances there, but not all of it.

881
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 3: I mean, my goodness, can you get the guy an

882
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 3: opportunity to to, you know, play clean football? And I

883
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 3: think a lot of that has to do with what

884
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,919
Speaker 3: you have up front. And I was thoroughly impressed again

885
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 3: with Tanner BORDERLINI starting at center. I thought Magan Zovez

886
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 3: looked good. Shout out to Braiden Smith. We know what

887
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 3: he dealt with at ten last year. He looked like

888
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 3: he picked up right where he left off because the

889
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 3: crazy part about what Braiden Smith went through, as we

890
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 3: all pointed out during that time, he left when he

891
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 3: was playing good football. And now I'm glad he's in

892
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 3: a better mental state. But he picked the right where

893
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:24,399
Speaker 3: he left off.

894
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 5: Well, and let's go back to Monday Show. There are

895
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 5: a couple of different times within I think each hour

896
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 5: where I found myself, you know, kind of jerking the

897
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,760
Speaker 5: wheel a little bit and being like, hey, let's credit

898
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 5: the offensive line. I get it's not flashy, but and

899
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 5: I don't want this sound like I'm discrediting Daniel Jones,

900
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 5: but it would be really hard for any quarterback to

901
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 5: have screwed up with that pocket on Sunday, Like I mean,

902
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 5: it was priscine, so solid and clean and consistent. And

903
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 5: that is the Jones aspect to where again you're banking

904
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 5: on others around him, which was so much of this decision.

905
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 5: So much of this decision was we feel like we

906
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 5: can support him with the other ten and Shane Stikeen

907
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 5: as as play caller. And again that aspect betting on whatever,

908
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 5: a first round All Pro, future Hall of Famer Nelson,

909
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 5: betting on Braden Smith, betting on Bernard Ryman, betting on

910
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 5: Tanner BORTLINI was a fourth round pick for a center.

911
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 5: That's very high for a center. Third round pick. In mattgansalves,

912
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 5: there's a little bit more of like, Okay, I can

913
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,959
Speaker 5: see belief in that more than maybe saying, oh wow,

914
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 5: Daniel Jones just the he's gonna hoodini and then all

915
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,239
Speaker 5: of a sudden he's going to turn into the next

916
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 5: Josh Allen. Like that is you know, obviously unfair. So

917
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 5: again that's the aspect of it cannot be real, and

918
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 5: certainly the test this week is James just laid out

919
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 5: all those numbers. Is much much different because Tennessee had

920
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 5: a great field position all day and I think they

921
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:50,919
Speaker 5: ended the day average in like two and a half

922
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 5: yards per play, which is just awful. So how's the

923
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 5: defensive test going to impact the Colts coming up this week?

924
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing how this this offense

925
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 1: does do against them. And the other thing, going back

926
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: to Daniel Jones, when he's in New York, he had

927
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,240
Speaker 1: a receiver or two, and he certainly had Saquon Barkley,

928
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: but the offensive line wasn't all that great for Barkley

929
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: sometimes either. But the fact that you've got such a

930
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: solid core of receivers and now Tyler Warren on top

931
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 1: of all that and JT in the backfield, like this

932
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,839
Speaker 1: is clearly the best situation that Daniel Jones has ever had.

933
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 3: James, he's probably feeling that way, and we will certainly

934
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 3: see again if it is validated, because there's been times

935
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 3: in his career where he's looked good, he's looked great,

936
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 3: and then it's kind of gone downhill after that. So

937
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 3: keep in mind, there's a couple other things I got

938
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 3: They're out there throughout the show. But there's going back

939
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 3: through his history, there have been moments where he's had

940
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 3: really good games and it hasn't worked out, you know,

941
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 3: for reasons. It might be his play, the offensive line, whatever.

942
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,359
Speaker 3: So I would just say again that's the question we're

943
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 3: all asking ourselves, how much do we believe? But again,

944
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 3: having that conversation at all is a good thing for

945
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 3: the Colts.

946
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: Well, they'll get a chance to show what they've got

947
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 1: against one of the best defenses in the NFL coming

948
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,800
Speaker 1: up on Sunday Lucas Soil Stadium. We'll talk more about

949
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 1: that in a moment with Steven Holder. He covers the

950
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 1: team at ESPN dot com and he will stop buy

951
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: and give us his thoughts on the week to come

952
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: for the Indianapolis Colts. Right here on the home of

953
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,880
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Cults and Radio ninety three five and one

954
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: oh seven five the fan Man, it rolls quickly. It

955
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: feels like we just got done whooping up on the

956
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: Dolphins on Sunday afternoon, and we're getting ready for the

957
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: Broncos coming up in just a couple of days time.

958
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 3: Already it goes see, I can't say we I was

959
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 3: not out there doing the due, but shout out to

960
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 3: the Colts for getting it done, because that was quite

961
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 3: the end to end performance.

962
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people in that stadium that

963
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 1: were feeling pretty good about that victory. We check in

964
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: now with a man who covers the Colts and has

965
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: for a while now. He's at ESPN, one of our

966
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: good friends, Stephen Holder on the pay Less Liquors Hot.

967
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 3: You know, Stephen was there with you know, Jim Harbaugh

968
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 3: and those guys. He's been here for a long time.

969
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: What was that opening I know it was the first

970
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: time that the Colts have won since twenty thirteen on

971
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 1: an opening day, But what you've been around The point

972
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: is is you've seen a few ups and downs in

973
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: that stadium and with this team. What was the vibe

974
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: you got walking out of that stadium the other day?

975
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 7: I mean, it's pretty good. Look I've been as James said,

976
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 7: I have been here a long time. Do you know

977
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 7: that before Sunday I had only seen the Colts win

978
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 7: once on opening Day despite being here for I don't know,

979
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:27,399
Speaker 7: twelve years or something, So that was different. I wasn't

980
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 7: sure what to do with it, but I think there

981
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,479
Speaker 7: is something about going one to know and it's only symbolic. Okay,

982
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 7: it doesn't mean anything. You could lose the next sixteen,

983
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 7: but there is something I think emotionally and symbolically important

984
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 7: about being want to know for your fans, for your

985
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 7: own selves as a football team. I think this fan base,

986
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 7: if you're asking me about vibes, like you know among

987
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 7: others the fans and so forth, but this fan base

988
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 7: I think needed something to believe in because I haven't

989
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 7: felt a lot of belief around town lately. I will

990
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 7: tell you that. I mean, we all get asked questions

991
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 7: about this team, and the vibe from those questions, to

992
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 7: continue with that word, it has not been great and

993
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 7: there's not been a lot of optimism. So I think

994
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 7: people were surprised but also welcoming of that surprise because

995
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,240
Speaker 7: it was not what they expected.

996
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 3: Steven I saw a video yesterday of Quentin Nelson. I

997
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 3: don't know if he's got a chance to watch this,

998
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 3: but they had like it miked up right, and that

999
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,959
Speaker 3: it has to be the most excited we've heard him

1000
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 3: and quite some time at least, you know, putting something

1001
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 3: like that out into the public. But when you walk

1002
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,399
Speaker 3: into that locker room after the game and you kind

1003
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,960
Speaker 3: of see that energy still there. How do you do

1004
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 3: that they can build on that or perhaps use that

1005
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 3: to go forward, because again, it's been a long time

1006
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 3: since they were ever want to know, a lot of

1007
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:53,720
Speaker 3: these guys, I want to say all of them probably

1008
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 3: were in a coach uniform, had an experience being want

1009
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:57,880
Speaker 3: to know, as a cult.

1010
00:43:59,080 --> 00:43:59,760
Speaker 6: No they haven't.

1011
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, exactly right, And I do think that's kind of

1012
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 7: what I'm getting at when you talk about that energy.

1013
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 7: When we think about this, you spend all off season

1014
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 7: talking and talking and talking and practicing and working and

1015
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 7: all the things that go into being a football team.

1016
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 7: You do all of that, and you spend weeks and

1017
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 7: months and so forth doing it, and then you come

1018
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 7: into week one and you get your heads beat in.

1019
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 7: That sucks. Okay, that really sucks, And it doesn't mean

1020
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 7: you can't be good. The Colts have had good seasons

1021
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:36,439
Speaker 7: despite despite winning or losing in Week one, which they

1022
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 7: do so routinely. But just think about how different a

1023
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 7: vibe it is when you actually get a return on

1024
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 7: your investment for all the work that you put in

1025
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 7: all off season in the first game of the season.

1026
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 7: So you'd much rather be the colst today than I

1027
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 7: don't know the Dolphins, okay, who now are doubting everything

1028
00:44:56,680 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 7: about themselves. So it does matter at least somewhat, I think.

1029
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 5: Again, Stephen Holding, you can find his work ESPN. He

1030
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 5: joins us every Wednesday. We always appreciate his time. See,

1031
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,720
Speaker 5: we were talking about this a little bit earlier, about

1032
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 5: you know, betting on Daniel Jones to be whatever a

1033
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 5: constant or consistent for you. Yeah, the back of the

1034
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,919
Speaker 5: baseball card would tell you otherwise. But like you watch

1035
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 5: that offensive line operate on Sunday, and if I said,

1036
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 5: would you bet on that to be more of a constant,

1037
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 5: you would probably have more belief in that unit stringing

1038
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 5: consistency together than you would maybe Jones himself. You know,

1039
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,359
Speaker 5: how much of that do you think could be possible? Yeah,

1040
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 5: Jones might have a little bit more erratic nature to

1041
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 5: him moving forward, But if that offensive line looks different

1042
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 5: than it looked in New York for him, then all

1043
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 5: of a sudden, maybe you do have a quarterback that

1044
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,319
Speaker 5: finds more consistency.

1045
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 7: What you saw on Sunday was the absolute, positively greatest

1046
00:45:56,920 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 7: possible scenario for Daniel Jones, Okay, absolute flawless protection. You

1047
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 7: saw receivers who were getting wide open. I don't know

1048
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 7: what the Miami Dolphins were doing. Like, I'm not downing

1049
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 7: Daniel Jones. I'm just telling you like he took what

1050
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 7: he was given and he was given a lot.

1051
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 5: Okay, did you have a drop on Sunday? I don't

1052
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 5: think anybody dropped them.

1053
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 7: I don't think. I don't know that they did so

1054
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 7: protection wide receivers. Incredible job, Dolphins go home. We don't

1055
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 7: want to see you anymore. Shane Stikeen, fabulous job. Like

1056
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,399
Speaker 7: he When you give Shane Stikeen an edge, all right,

1057
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 7: when when he's got the upper hand on a defense,

1058
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,360
Speaker 7: it's gonna be a long day. And that's what that was.

1059
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 7: So so Daniel Jones, his job is to come in

1060
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:45,880
Speaker 7: and be the conductor.

1061
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 2: This is he is.

1062
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,240
Speaker 7: He is not one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL.

1063
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 7: We don't go take what happened on Sunday and try

1064
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 7: to extrapolate it into him being something else. But he

1065
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 7: is a guy who can take that o the most

1066
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 7: situation and do a lot with it. And that is

1067
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:06,640
Speaker 7: what you saw. Now here's the question. I am not

1068
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 7: trying to, like, you know, be a debbie downer. I

1069
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,879
Speaker 7: think there's questions though, right we got to see what's

1070
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 7: it look like against a competent defense, because that was

1071
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 7: not one I don't I'm telling you, I have not

1072
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 7: seen a defense play that poorly in a long time.

1073
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 7: Mike mc daniel, he ain't gonna make it. I'm just

1074
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 7: telling you now, he is not gonna make it. If

1075
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:27,759
Speaker 7: that's what the Miami Dolphins look like. So Denver is

1076
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 7: a great test and it will tell us a lot.

1077
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 7: I still think I still like the Colts, and I

1078
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 7: like their chances in this game, but this is gonna

1079
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 7: tell us a lot. You know, Pat certain that safety

1080
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 7: on the back end, hufound a great opening game with Denver.

1081
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 7: They've got Bonito up there. I mean, they're they're going

1082
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 7: to make it tough on you. And then just fancy

1083
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 7: Joseph as a coordinator. So this is going to be

1084
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 7: a much more difficult matchup and and there may be

1085
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 7: more pressure, but the thought about the offensive line. Daniel

1086
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,919
Speaker 7: Jones was pressured. I think we had pressure six times

1087
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 7: at ESPN, and his career average in New York was

1088
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 7: almost thirteen dropbacks per game, so less than half the

1089
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 7: amount of pressure he felt on a weekly basis in

1090
00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 7: New York is what he got on Sunday.

1091
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: Stephen Holder ESPN joining us here on the Payless Lookers hotline.

00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 1: Can we talk about special teams a little bit too?

1093
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: I know, one game, small sample size, we know what

1094
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:31,240
Speaker 1: Rigritto Sanchez is capable of doing. But man, Spencer Schrader delivered.

1095
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 2: There's just no other way to put it.

1096
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:35,200
Speaker 1: What do we think about the special teams unit?

1097
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 7: No, I think they did a great, great job. I

1098
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 7: mean they because there were some times in the preseason

1099
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 7: where I was kind of like, just not even the

1100
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 7: kicking situation per se, but just special teams overall. There

1101
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 7: were some shaky moments in the preseason. And I don't

1102
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,759
Speaker 7: want to overreact to preseason special teams because you know,

1103
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 7: you've got like future Amazon drivers out there in some cases, right,

1104
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,320
Speaker 7: But I'm just telling you, you know, there were questions

1105
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 7: to be asked. I thought they were really solid all

1106
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 7: the way around on special teams, and Spencer Strader has

1107
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 7: a real opportunity here to to solidify something, solidify himself,

1108
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 7: you know, with a team that you know apparently is

1109
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 7: going to be able to move the football, so that

1110
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 7: gives you opportunities as the kicker, So whodos to him?

1111
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 7: You know, he was he bounced around last year, had

1112
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,759
Speaker 7: three different teams. I think he kicked for And here

1113
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 7: is an opportunity, a Goalden opportunity to be the guy

1114
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 7: and it's up to him to make good on it.

1115
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,240
Speaker 7: But that's a great start for him on Sunday.

1116
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,879
Speaker 3: So, Stephen, Actually, when I looked at the offense, and

1117
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 3: you know, we talked a lot about Tyler warn We

1118
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,319
Speaker 3: talked a lot about even Michael Paytman Junior and what

1119
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:46,399
Speaker 3: he was able to do. But the variety in which

1120
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones was able to distribute the ball, do you

1121
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 3: think that is what Shane envisioned to a degree, Like, okay,

1122
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 3: if I can I trust myself enough to scheme up

1123
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 3: the offense, to scheme up guys being open. Because if

1124
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 3: you look at you know, Daniel Jones in his air

1125
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,359
Speaker 3: yards per attempt, and I don't get too much into

1126
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,400
Speaker 3: the weeds, but he didn't throw the ball down the

1127
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 3: field a ton. He wasn't throwing it down until every

1128
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,959
Speaker 3: single play. But what did you think of perhaps maybe

1129
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 3: what Shane gained or maybe what trust he gained in

1130
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,600
Speaker 3: Daniel when he sees Okay, if I do scheme ball

1131
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 3: a few shots, I have someone who can possibly get

1132
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:20,319
Speaker 3: the ball there when he needs to get there.

1133
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, he's a point guard.

1134
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 1: He really is.

1135
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 7: And fine, that's that's that's not you know, I think

1136
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 7: there might be some who look who hear that and

1137
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 7: think you're being disparaging. I don't think it is. I

1138
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 7: think Daniel Jones is fine with that analogy. Don't make

1139
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 7: it more complicated than it has to be. I think

1140
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 7: that's the way they looked at it. Look, he is,

1141
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 7: he's a guy who he's going to He's gonna make

1142
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:51,320
Speaker 7: good decisions under optimum circumstances. So they gave him optimum circumstances,

1143
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 7: like when he's under pressure, he starts to crumble, at

1144
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 7: least historically, Okay, because he did not trust his he

1145
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 7: did not trust his protection in New York. He did

1146
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 7: not have that issue on Sunday. So he's able to

1147
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 7: be back there and comfortably make good decisions. And the

1148
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 7: first read, Look, you know, we saw Xavian Howard basically

1149
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 7: just murder to a tager iloa basically the other day

1150
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:16,800
Speaker 7: when I asked him a very.

1151
00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 3: Very yeah going viral here, Steven, look at you like, man,

1152
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:22,760
Speaker 3: you got me all on TMZ.

1153
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,279
Speaker 7: I mean, I had no intent with the question. He

1154
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,360
Speaker 7: just he just took it and ran and said that Tua,

1155
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 7: if he couldn't get to his first read, that it

1156
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:36,319
Speaker 7: was panic mode. And honestly, we saw some of that

1157
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 7: from Daniel Jones in New York. Now here's the thing.

1158
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 7: They protected him and Shane Stikeen did such a good

1159
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 7: job of giving him great first options. Daniel Jon's going

1160
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:50,440
Speaker 7: to hit those. Okay, you give him that. He's hitting it.

1161
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 7: He's hitting it all day. He can do that, and

1162
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 7: he is actually more than happy to do that. He

1163
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:58,000
Speaker 7: wants to throw to the first read. He didn't want

1164
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:01,080
Speaker 7: to go through two and three progressions. Not that he can't,

1165
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 7: it's just that that's not his game. So he got

1166
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,359
Speaker 7: the ball out. And kudos too, as you mentioned Tyler

1167
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:11,840
Speaker 7: Warren and Michael Pittman and others for making something happen

1168
00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 7: after the catch. That is really the way this offense

1169
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 7: is designed. And what I was told earlier this offseason

1170
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 7: is that there was going to be an emphasis or

1171
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 7: I should say less emphasis on pushing the ball down

1172
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,400
Speaker 7: the field, regardless of who the quarterback was. The emphasis

1173
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 7: was intended to be less on pushing the ball down

1174
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,359
Speaker 7: the field and let's get some run after the catch going.

1175
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 7: I think they have guys who can do it, and

1176
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 7: I think it's the right way to go, and let's

1177
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 7: see if they can continue this, because it is much

1178
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 7: harder to hit those shot plays.

1179
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:44,279
Speaker 2: It just is.

1180
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:47,600
Speaker 7: It's much more optimum to allow guys to make plays

1181
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 7: after the catch.

1182
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 5: Steven last one for me, Steven Holder with us here

1183
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 5: from ESPN. Last year we saw this matchup. Honestly, I

1184
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 5: thought it was one of the colts better stretches of

1185
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 5: football through the first really, honestly until Taylor dropped the ball.

1186
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 5: Frankly through about two and a half three quarters. Considering

1187
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 5: everything that was on the line in that game, the

1188
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 5: Cults are about to be up two scores on the road,

1189
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 5: hostile environment, et cetera, et cetera, and then it unravels

1190
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:15,720
Speaker 5: there like no other. What were your kind of general

1191
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 5: thoughts as you look back on last year's matchup and

1192
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 5: now looking ahead to Sunday.

1193
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, I thought that was one of that that was

1194
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:24,760
Speaker 7: a turning point in the season.

1195
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 1: It really was.

1196
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 7: I think think about how think about how you felt

1197
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:33,000
Speaker 7: about the Colts going into that game versus the rest

1198
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 7: of the season. I mean, you talk about a one't eighty.

1199
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,319
Speaker 7: You know, there was optimism, There was like you know, hey,

1200
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 7: think about how different things were for Anthony Richardson from

1201
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,719
Speaker 7: that day forward, right, I mean so much changed that

1202
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 7: day And I think what that what that says to

1203
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,359
Speaker 7: us is that this is a this is a good

1204
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,759
Speaker 7: Broncos team that they have to measure themselves against a

1205
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 7: little bit. I'm not saying this is the ultimate measurement.

1206
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 7: They're gonna have tougher games down the stretch but or

1207
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 7: the rest of the season, but this is a team

1208
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 7: that if you make mistakes, they're going to beat you.

1209
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 7: And that was proven last year. So the Colts have

1210
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,480
Speaker 7: to be much better or they have to play as

1211
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 7: well at least on Sunday. I think to make this

1212
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 7: a team that goes to and oh so that but

1213
00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 7: that game, I'm telling you that I will always remember

1214
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,880
Speaker 7: that as a turning point in that season, because you know,

1215
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 7: we open this segment talking about vibes. Well, the vibes

1216
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 7: going into that game there were a hell of a

1217
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:31,480
Speaker 7: lot different than the vibes coming out of it, and

1218
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 7: the rest of the season completely different.

1219
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,200
Speaker 1: Steven Older ESPN. Always good to talk to you, Thanks

1220
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: for joining us as always on a Wednesday. Have a

1221
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 1: great week and we'll see in the press bucks on Sunday.

1222
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 1: All right, guys, this season there is Steven Older with

1223
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 1: his thoughts on the paidless lookers hotline. Right, there is

1224
00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,799
Speaker 1: a test for this new offense man. This is a test.

1225
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 5: Do you guys believe in the And James you asked

1226
00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 5: even this sort of question, do you believe in the

1227
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 5: We have the player that used to be on your rosters,

1228
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 5: so we have intel storyline and I bring that up

1229
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 5: in regards to Xavion Howard for those not totally following here.

1230
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,319
Speaker 5: Xavion Howard, the Colts signed a month ago, was on

1231
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:12,600
Speaker 5: the Dolphins for years, wasn't on the Dolphins last year.

1232
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 5: I was on the Dolphins for years. And he was

1233
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 5: very blunt yesterday or Monday and describing what makes Tua

1234
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:24,800
Speaker 5: start to unravel panic mode. Yeah, and the Colts obviously

1235
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 5: made to a look panicky. So do you guys believe

1236
00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 5: in the ex player comes to our team and he's

1237
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 5: got great intel on you.

1238
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:36,120
Speaker 1: I think there's intel to be had in a situation

1239
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,560
Speaker 1: when you go up against the guy in practice all

1240
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 1: the time and you start to maybe see his particular tells,

1241
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,560
Speaker 1: or you get to know how he reacts day after

1242
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,759
Speaker 1: day after day. In terms of real scheme stuff. I

1243
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: don't know that there's a huge advantage there because things

1244
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,880
Speaker 1: change week to week and adjustments get made. But I

1245
00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 1: do think other players get to know past players and

1246
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:58,719
Speaker 1: know their tendencies just by being around him all the time,

1247
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:00,160
Speaker 1: don't you, James, Yeah.

1248
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,040
Speaker 3: I would agree to an extent, but overall no, because

1249
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:04,360
Speaker 3: I think even if you know what they're gonna do,

1250
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 3: you got to execute it, and the best teams execute

1251
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 3: so you can know what's coming. But how many times

1252
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 3: we see, like the Legion of Boom Defense years ago,

1253
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,239
Speaker 3: we all knew what they were gonna run, and they

1254
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 3: still dominated you because they were just better. So I

1255
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,960
Speaker 3: don't buy too much into it. I even saw to

1256
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 3: some degree some of that on the Dolphins side with

1257
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 3: Juju Brents, and they were asking him like, oh, did

1258
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 3: you give your teammates he need tips on how to

1259
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 3: you know, guard these guys and what they might do defensively,

1260
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 3: and it's like, sure, feel free to offer that up,

1261
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,320
Speaker 3: but I don't think that's gonna make much of a difference.

1262
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 5: Well, I bring that up for this week because and

1263
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:38,280
Speaker 5: he is the nicest human, one of the nicest humans

1264
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:42,360
Speaker 5: I've ever come across in the NFL. But Sam Ellinger

1265
00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,799
Speaker 5: is on the Broncos. And if there's somebody that knows

1266
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 5: change seconds offense, I would think a quarterback, like if

1267
00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:49,200
Speaker 5: you do.

1268
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 3: Believe in this theory, but at least knows how he thinks.

1269
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 5: To you do believe in the theory of X player

1270
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:58,359
Speaker 5: can provide intel, I would say X quarterback. Okay, fair,

1271
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,080
Speaker 5: same offense. You know, it's not like glue an Arimo's defense.

1272
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,359
Speaker 5: You know, Sam Ellener obviously can't really help on that

1273
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 5: side of the ball. But again, just a little. It

1274
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 5: might be a nothing burger. But you know, when you

1275
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:09,759
Speaker 5: have a spread that's one or two points and you

1276
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,520
Speaker 5: expect this to be a close game, and uh, you know,

1277
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,400
Speaker 5: obviously these teams didn't meet late last season. And for

1278
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:19,919
Speaker 5: what it's worth, Bo Nicks did face lou Anumo last

1279
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 5: year late in the season. Denver Cincinnati is actually one

1280
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 5: of Nicks's better games of his crazy game, of his

1281
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 5: wild game that was the missed field goals and overtime game.

1282
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,120
Speaker 1: If you remember and then Nick everything was on the

1283
00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:33,360
Speaker 1: line at that point.

1284
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,520
Speaker 2: Was it nixed to memes right for the game?

1285
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:36,320
Speaker 3: I believe so?

1286
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 1: Uh?

1287
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:41,280
Speaker 5: Or for the game overtime forcing overtime. So just a wild,

1288
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,439
Speaker 5: wild game. So a couple of little branches, if you will,

1289
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:45,760
Speaker 5: from this week two matchup.

1290
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:47,680
Speaker 1: It's a lot of fun to talk about for the

1291
00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:49,400
Speaker 1: next couple of days and even more fun to watch

1292
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:53,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoon. Having said all of that, Mark Dakton,

1293
00:57:53,080 --> 00:58:00,360
Speaker 1: let's check it down. I'll get back to the Colts

1294
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:02,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL in a moment here. But the Indiana

1295
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 1: Fever concluded their twenty twenty five regular season last night

1296
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:07,520
Speaker 1: over at the field House twenty four and twenty. Their

1297
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: record on the year, they will be the sixth seed.

1298
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,320
Speaker 1: I believe going into the postseason there's still a chance

1299
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 1: they can get to the number seven seed.

1300
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 3: Yes, So we will find out officially tomorrow night, after

1301
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:20,960
Speaker 3: all the game's wrapped up. To figure out where they

1302
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 3: actually land. They can play the Aces or the Dream

1303
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 3: And as I keep saying, I'll prefer the Dream because

1304
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 3: the Aces have the potential MVP in Age Wilson.

1305
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 1: Then another potential MVP did not play in that game

1306
00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 1: from Minnesota last night and the FISA caller was out

1307
00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: and the Fever took advantage. They got out to a

1308
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,600
Speaker 1: ten nothing start and never trailed in a game to

1309
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 1: win eighty three seventy two over the Links to improve.

1310
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 1: As I said to twenty four and twenty Kelsey Mitchell

1311
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 1: coming through again with eighteen points, Aliah Boston solid twelve points,

1312
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 1: eight boards, and Tasha Howard ten points, seven rebounds. Odyssey

1313
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 1: Simms had fifteen points. And again we talked about a

1314
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:01,720
Speaker 1: little bit yesterday with Pat Poylan, the Fever just having

1315
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 1: to all the players that have gone down five out

1316
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 1: with season ending injuries this year. But the folks they

1317
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: brought in to replace those players, they've hit on almost

1318
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:10,680
Speaker 1: every one of them.

1319
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,960
Speaker 3: James, Yeah, and it just shows the professionals them on

1320
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 3: both sides, both from the team and the player. Shout

1321
00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 3: out to Ottysey Simms, former number two pick in the draft,

1322
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 3: and she plays with so much emotion and passion it

1323
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,480
Speaker 3: kind of reminds you how much it means to these players,

1324
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 3: even after all these years. I mean, she's been on

1325
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 3: different teams, she's been out of the league or in

1326
00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 3: and out of different rosters, and for her to come

1327
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 3: and care as much as he has is really cool

1328
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 3: and also shout out to aerial powers as well. I

1329
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:36,720
Speaker 3: got to see her at Michigan State when I was

1330
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 3: in college. She was great. I saw her for maybe

1331
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,520
Speaker 3: one quarter or one half of a college basketball game,

1332
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,000
Speaker 3: and I remember looking around like, yeah, she's going to

1333
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 3: the WNBA. So it's kind of cool to here all

1334
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 3: these years later in my Nick of the Woods.

1335
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the Colts again. They had

1336
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: the day off yesterday. They get ready for the Denver

1337
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 1: Broncos for a late kickoff for five coming up on

1338
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:01,400
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon over at Lucas Oil Stadium. What's the injury

1339
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 1: situation heading into Sunday? Still got a couple of guys

1340
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:07,600
Speaker 1: either questionable or out already, right.

1341
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, Mooney warning concussion protocol, so we'll see where his

1342
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 5: status is today. Basically, you know past history at indicate

1343
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 5: if you don't practice on a Wednesday, it's very, very

1344
01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:19,840
Speaker 5: difficult for you to make it through those steps by Sunday.

1345
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:22,800
Speaker 5: It's still nothing yet on Jalen Jones. They did sign

1346
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 5: a corner to the practice squad, so we'll see. You know,

1347
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:29,200
Speaker 5: I said this yesterday and I guess yeah, I am

1348
01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 5: taking a shot. I guess at Bonix and the Denver Whiteouts,

1349
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,520
Speaker 5: if there are games on the schedule, you could maybe

1350
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 5: withstand a lack of cornerback depth. I do think this

1351
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,320
Speaker 5: is one of them. Now, Courtland Sutton's a very good player,

1352
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:42,680
Speaker 5: and whatever Xavier and Howard might be a combo. Maybe

1353
01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 5: Kenny Moore plays more outside this week, Maybe crys La

1354
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 5: Montz or Makai Blackman played more inside. Just little wrinkles

1355
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 5: that potentially the cults are going to have to explore.

1356
01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 5: But outside of that, we'll see. I mean, so far,

1357
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 5: you know, the health looked pretty good again, Jonathan Taylor.

1358
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 5: Shane Steigen said, came out of the game okay. On Sunday, All.

1359
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:02,960
Speaker 2: Right, let's talk about some Major League baseball.

1360
01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 1: Mark dyketon the Cops getting it went over the Atlanta

1361
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 1: Braves six to one last night. They are firmly in

1362
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,240
Speaker 1: control of their wild card destiny. So I guess the

1363
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 1: challenge for them is just keep the keep playing good

1364
01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,080
Speaker 1: baseball and stay sharp until the postseason comes.

1365
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 4: Right, keep on keeping on.

1366
01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:20,600
Speaker 1: I like that. You should make a bumper sticker out

1367
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:20,760
Speaker 1: of that.

1368
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:21,680
Speaker 4: Sure someone did.

1369
01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:25,320
Speaker 5: In the Jeff Rickards second favorite player right there. I'm

1370
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 5: strong right there. I can't cheer for the Colts. I

1371
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:31,920
Speaker 5: guess I'll root for Tom Brady.

1372
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't mean I want the Cubs to win.

1373
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 3: Mark, could you imagine saying, like Lebron James is one

1374
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 3: of your favorite players during those Bulls years when they

1375
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:39,480
Speaker 3: were going at it in the playoffs.

1376
01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 5: Pacers fans.

1377
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 2: Can't get it done.

1378
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 5: I really want the Bucks to get it done.

1379
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:49,200
Speaker 1: I will not apologize for enjoying the play if you

1380
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 1: can't win it all this year.

1381
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 5: I really hope Purdue cuts down the nets.

1382
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,760
Speaker 4: I mean, had a jersey that's half Kleab Williams half

1383
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:59,160
Speaker 4: Jordan Love. You're that guy coming traffic.

1384
01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 5: If I did it to rees court side? Did Scott

1385
01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 5: Agnes had that last night? Did I see him? By

1386
01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 5: all counts? And is an excellent a young basketball player

1387
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:08,560
Speaker 5: I believe at one of the local.

1388
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:11,640
Speaker 1: Bloomington High school n my favorite team. The Reds did

1389
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:13,480
Speaker 1: get a win last night in San Diego four too.

1390
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:16,600
Speaker 1: It's that And look, Kevin, I know that we've dismissed them.

1391
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 1: They are three games out of the wild card now.

1392
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 1: San Diego is one of the teams that they are

1393
01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:22,120
Speaker 1: chasing this is a big series for them.

1394
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 4: They were dead the other day. Now they're the undertaker

1395
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:28,200
Speaker 4: and they're rising up. Let's go what we're doing here.

1396
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 2: Let's go, Matthew.

1397
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 4: Are they dead or not?

1398
01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 2: They are three games.

1399
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,080
Speaker 3: Predictions last week pick a side.

1400
01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:36,360
Speaker 2: Three games out of the wildcard spot?

1401
01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:36,840
Speaker 1: Right now?

1402
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:42,160
Speaker 3: Are they getting in? They're not to.

1403
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 6: Believe.

1404
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 1: They also improved to a game over five hundred with

1405
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,880
Speaker 1: that wins seventy three and seventy two. On the night

1406
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 1: uh the Saint Louis Cardinals losing to Seattle five to

1407
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:56,840
Speaker 1: three was the final score in that one. The White

1408
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,439
Speaker 1: Sox come up on the wrong end of the score

1409
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:01,919
Speaker 1: of the Tampa five to four was the final there.

1410
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,800
Speaker 1: Iowa Cubs got a shutout win in Indianapolis here at

1411
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 1: Victory Field last night. Seven nothing was a final score,

1412
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 1: but seven nothing in eleven innings.

1413
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 3: That that escalated quickly. James, Yeah, that is crazy. Talk

1414
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,680
Speaker 3: about being in a slugfest and then things kind of

1415
01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:19,600
Speaker 3: break open. What they say in baseball, one of the

1416
01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 3: cliches always heard was, you know, hitting his contagious.

1417
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 1: Iowa Cubs intown again today and afternoon start at one

1418
01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:29,880
Speaker 1: thirty five over a Victory Field against the Indianapolis Indians

1419
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:34,080
Speaker 1: and Jalen Carter spitting on a player before he even

1420
01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,480
Speaker 1: played it down on Monday Night football. I guess it

1421
01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:39,320
Speaker 1: was Thursday Night football week and a half ago. NFL

1422
01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:42,080
Speaker 1: Today said, no, he's that serves as a one game

1423
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 1: suspension because he didn't play at all in that game.

1424
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 1: They gave him a fifty thousand dollars fine in that

1425
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:50,080
Speaker 1: that game of being suspended for spitting on a player. Yeah,

1426
01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,000
Speaker 1: the Dak Presca, Yeah yeah.

1427
01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:55,479
Speaker 3: The amount of first of all, the Philly fans saying

1428
01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:57,800
Speaker 3: that Dak spit first, who raised you? He didn't spit

1429
01:03:57,840 --> 01:03:59,800
Speaker 3: on anybody, So all of you trying to act like

1430
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:04,440
Speaker 3: it's equal offense, No, it's not. And the secondly, Kevin,

1431
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 3: the amount of like water carrying I saw from some

1432
01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:09,440
Speaker 3: of these reporters around the league. I'm like, man, does

1433
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:12,520
Speaker 3: this what it take to become an insider? Because some

1434
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:15,280
Speaker 3: of the explanations that we were seeing in the editorializing

1435
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,920
Speaker 3: the situation, like, I'm not with none of that.

1436
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:19,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, schefter makes you on a puke.

1437
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:21,680
Speaker 3: I mean, it's Tom Pelise a lot of those who,

1438
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 3: again I love the information they provide most of the time,

1439
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 3: but I'm looking like, why are we framing this like, well,

1440
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,800
Speaker 3: the NFL retroactively suspended him because he didn't take a snap,

1441
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,680
Speaker 3: and they're really setting a standard because now technically it

1442
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:37,200
Speaker 3: is a suspension. So that's the nah nah nah. We

1443
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:38,720
Speaker 3: all saw him get dressed and go out there for

1444
01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,120
Speaker 3: a game and get prepared to play a game. Because

1445
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:43,720
Speaker 3: because he was too dumb to not spend on somebody,

1446
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:46,800
Speaker 3: he got ejected from the game before it started. That

1447
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,439
Speaker 3: is the premise of everything. So I don't buy into

1448
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:51,919
Speaker 3: the hole he already got suspended thing. I think they're

1449
01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 3: looking at that matchup and how good of a player

1450
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 3: he is, and they're like, you know what, it's probably

1451
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:58,160
Speaker 3: better we have Dylan Carter out there, which I understand

1452
01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:00,920
Speaker 3: from monetary standpoint, but from like a you know, a

1453
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:04,919
Speaker 3: moral standing the NFL, I'm questioning some things.

1454
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:05,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1455
01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:07,160
Speaker 5: I thought they'd go one more game, so I guess

1456
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:08,840
Speaker 5: two games if you want to look at it like that.

1457
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:10,960
Speaker 5: I thought they multi I thought there was an opportunity

1458
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:12,880
Speaker 5: kind of reset the old president.

1459
01:05:12,680 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 3: Because here's my question, if he had played one single snap,

1460
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:17,600
Speaker 3: would that be different? Then would that have game kind

1461
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:18,760
Speaker 3: of a game played and then you spend it for

1462
01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,240
Speaker 3: another game, like, that's my whole thing. Like you're basically

1463
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:24,040
Speaker 3: rewarding him from deepen early instead of doing it a

1464
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:24,720
Speaker 3: few minutes later.

1465
01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:26,760
Speaker 5: It's kind of like the second quarter or third quarter

1466
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,160
Speaker 5: area that's not it's a great area. Can you imagine

1467
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:30,920
Speaker 5: the Eagles beat the Chiefs this week? When do you

1468
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:32,720
Speaker 5: start saying the wildcard Chiefs?

1469
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,640
Speaker 1: Remember several years ago they started off really tough at

1470
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:40,320
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, maybe in the home three

1471
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:42,320
Speaker 1: or several years ago, and then they came back and

1472
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 1: I think made a run.

1473
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:46,600
Speaker 3: So but I will say, the numbers when you start

1474
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:49,720
Speaker 3: owing to in the NFL are bleak. It's honestly very

1475
01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,400
Speaker 3: surprising to me because you got fifteen games left. But man,

1476
01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 3: if you start owing to your chance to make the

1477
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,760
Speaker 3: playoffs drop tremendously. I just throw on this. I want

1478
01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:59,040
Speaker 3: to say last year or something like that. So I

1479
01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 3: have to go back and see the update. A number is,

1480
01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:02,920
Speaker 3: but it is a big, big thing you do not

1481
01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:04,400
Speaker 3: want to be owing to in the NFL.

1482
01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:06,000
Speaker 1: And on the other side of that corn and take

1483
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:07,600
Speaker 1: a look at the Colts if they were able to

1484
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 1: find a way to beat the Denver Broncos on Sunday,

1485
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:12,520
Speaker 1: which they very well could. Not only would they be

1486
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:14,160
Speaker 1: two and oh, but they'd have a two and oh

1487
01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 1: AFC record, and they would have head to head over

1488
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 1: two teams that they could potentially be vying for a

1489
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 1: playoff spot with at the end of the year.

1490
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:21,959
Speaker 3: Big game.

1491
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:23,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's important.

1492
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 5: Even though I've been saying since May the two biggest

1493
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,360
Speaker 5: games not named Houston on the schedule right here out

1494
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 5: of the gate, I mean, these are massive, massive games,

1495
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,320
Speaker 5: and the Colts thoroughly took care of business Week one

1496
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:34,600
Speaker 5: and a great, great opportunity are coming up on Sunday.

1497
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 1: Didn't jamb label Game one must win?

1498
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:39,080
Speaker 2: Has he done that annually?

1499
01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: I think he did that. I'm not sure that sounds GMV.

1500
01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 1: He's the best anything else you want to throw him?

1501
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:45,960
Speaker 1: Before we head off to.

1502
01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 5: I shout out to see why Heilton going in the

1503
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 5: Florida International Football Hall of Fame, A first player in

1504
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:53,680
Speaker 5: that program's history, a little over two decades old, one

1505
01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:56,240
Speaker 5: of the younger college football programs out there. But as

1506
01:06:56,280 --> 01:06:58,760
Speaker 5: I said in seven o'clock hour, one of the most

1507
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 5: beloved colts I think inside and outside of that locker room,

1508
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 5: universally loved by his teammates and I think fans as well.

1509
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 5: So great to see t Y Hilton heading into the

1510
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:11,200
Speaker 5: Ring of Honor down there in Miami, all.

1511
01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,400
Speaker 1: Right, and coming up at a moment, we'll talk some NBA,

1512
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 1: not only Pacers as they get ready for another season

1513
01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:19,280
Speaker 1: without Tyrese Haliburton this time, but also a.

1514
01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 2: Story you've been following very closely, just got a.

1515
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,560
Speaker 1: Little more interesting in the last twenty four hours, James Boyd.

1516
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that next ninety three to five and

1517
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:29,960
Speaker 1: one oh seven five the fans, good morning, thanks for

1518
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,400
Speaker 1: being here. We'll talk more Colts, some NBA and Pacers

1519
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:33,920
Speaker 1: coming up in a few minutes, but right now we've

1520
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 1: got college football on our minds. We've got Purdue taking

1521
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:41,320
Speaker 1: on USC coming up this weekend and that'll be up

1522
01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,320
Speaker 1: in West Lofiat. I'm looking forward to that and joining

1523
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 1: us now to tell us a little bit more about

1524
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 1: that football game. Tom Deanhart on the Payloss Liockkers hot Line,

1525
01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 1: as we have him every week throughout the season.

1526
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 2: Tom, thanks for being here again. We appreciate it.

1527
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, thanks for having me, guys. Sort of exciting and

1528
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,440
Speaker 8: I know USC is officially a Big Ten school, but

1529
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 8: it doesn't feel like it, so I guess when I

1530
01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:04,680
Speaker 8: see these logo schools come to town. So it's kind

1531
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:08,439
Speaker 8: of fun and intriguing and I'm very much looking forward

1532
01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:10,600
Speaker 8: to seeing what they have. Of course what Perdue has too.

1533
01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,280
Speaker 5: Tom, you put this out earlier in the week, and

1534
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:16,360
Speaker 5: I you know, from a talent standpoint, they could be

1535
01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,200
Speaker 5: ludicrous to act like Purdue is whatever even the middle

1536
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:21,599
Speaker 5: of the pack of the Big Ten right now. But okay,

1537
01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 5: what is Barry otam change the fact that through two weeks, uh,

1538
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 5: I think the least penalties team in the Big Ten

1539
01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:30,000
Speaker 5: and only one turnover. Like, I don't know, maybe you're

1540
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,479
Speaker 5: crawling before you're walking, but to me, that is a

1541
01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,519
Speaker 5: definite step in the right direction compared to where you

1542
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:36,040
Speaker 5: were at.

1543
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:39,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what it gets back to that old notion

1544
01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,960
Speaker 8: don't beat yourself, right, and they extremely have not done

1545
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,320
Speaker 8: that the first two weeks, you're correct, five penalties fust

1546
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:48,040
Speaker 8: in the Big Ten, second fewest in the nation. Last

1547
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 8: year they averaged I think six penalties a game. And

1548
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,160
Speaker 8: then the turnovers, you're right, just one so far this

1549
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 8: season that occurred last week to Ryan Brown interception. So yeah,

1550
01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:59,840
Speaker 8: they they played smart football and Barry Olden always preaches hard, smart,

1551
01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:02,120
Speaker 8: and so that's one of his one of his three

1552
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,800
Speaker 8: Holy Grail or or Holy Trinity football tenants that that

1553
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,479
Speaker 8: they've received so far. So we'll see. Like I said that,

1554
01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 8: there was a parade for beating ball state, you know,

1555
01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:14,120
Speaker 8: and so in Illinois pro here was about a twenty

1556
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:16,479
Speaker 8: point underd aug this weekend. So it would be interesting

1557
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:18,439
Speaker 8: to see what type of fight they can put up

1558
01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:20,920
Speaker 8: against the USC program. Guys that under Lincoln Riley, I

1559
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:22,200
Speaker 8: think has a lot to prove this year.

1560
01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 3: Tom when you look at the offensive workload and are

1561
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:28,799
Speaker 3: you worried about this the other day for Devin Moccaby,

1562
01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:31,760
Speaker 3: what do you think is the balance between trusting him,

1563
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:33,720
Speaker 3: you know, you get him thirty two carries last week,

1564
01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:36,160
Speaker 3: but also trying to make sure you keep him fresh

1565
01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:38,040
Speaker 3: for what you hope would be the end of the game.

1566
01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:40,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, too much. I mean I think you know the

1567
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:44,640
Speaker 8: offensive coordinator Josh Henson and Barry old to mention that

1568
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:47,759
Speaker 8: this week that was, I guess an anomaly if you will.

1569
01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:52,120
Speaker 8: Thirty two carry's a career high. He's not built for that. Guys,

1570
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:54,360
Speaker 8: if you stood next to Devin moccaby, you and even

1571
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 8: though he's a big ten running back. He's two hundred pounds,

1572
01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,519
Speaker 8: but just not an overly big guy and muscular guy.

1573
01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 8: You gotta be careful, imprude with your usage, and they

1574
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:04,920
Speaker 8: need to get some other backs. And of Alved, I

1575
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:06,479
Speaker 8: think it's kind of interesting. You know, the first week

1576
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:08,840
Speaker 8: they won by throwing the ball. Last week it was

1577
01:10:08,840 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 8: by running the ball. So they're going to take what

1578
01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 8: defense is given. But they got to be really prudent,

1579
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:15,040
Speaker 8: like I said, with how they used number forty five,

1580
01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:16,920
Speaker 8: because there's no doubt they got to keep him healthy

1581
01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:17,360
Speaker 8: this year.

1582
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,439
Speaker 1: Tom Dinar joining us on the Paylofstickers hot line. He

1583
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:23,800
Speaker 1: covers Purdue football for on three dot com and you

1584
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:26,240
Speaker 1: can find great stuff there all the time on Purdue,

1585
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:29,559
Speaker 1: including a conversation you have with Pete Arbagas, the longtime

1586
01:10:29,640 --> 01:10:32,200
Speaker 1: voice of Trojan football this week what you learn about

1587
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:34,719
Speaker 1: USC in your conversations with him.

1588
01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 8: Iconic Pete Arbagas. That was a lot of fun, and

1589
01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,800
Speaker 8: you know, they they're kind of trying to figure out

1590
01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:43,840
Speaker 8: who they are too. They opened up with two sort

1591
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,000
Speaker 8: of rummies. You know, Missouri State was playing their first

1592
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:49,320
Speaker 8: ever FBS game, Then Georgia Southern they were running rough

1593
01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:51,840
Speaker 8: shot over both those teams, so they're kind of looking

1594
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 8: in the mirror one and who are we are really

1595
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:57,840
Speaker 8: that good? And they think Pete thought they're much better

1596
01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:00,040
Speaker 8: on defense. That's been a real bugaboo out there in

1597
01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 8: Los Angeles. The Trojan defense has been very s power

1598
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 8: of late. He thinks they're bigger and better and stronger offensively,

1599
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:11,480
Speaker 8: great skills, erpic quarterback, maybe an NFL quarterback Jane Mayeva,

1600
01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,840
Speaker 8: and two great receivers and the one to one area,

1601
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:18,559
Speaker 8: though Pete said there's concerns the offensive line. You know,

1602
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:21,040
Speaker 8: how good is that, o lion? As you guys know,

1603
01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 8: it's football fans and people listening to that. Football is

1604
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:27,400
Speaker 8: always one of the trenches from pee week football in

1605
01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 8: the NFL. So if US is not good up front,

1606
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:32,800
Speaker 8: especially on offense, I think USC could struggle again this year.

1607
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:33,960
Speaker 1: Tom.

1608
01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:35,559
Speaker 5: I feel like, I don't know, maybe it's a little

1609
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:37,920
Speaker 5: PTSD on my brain, but you know, last year, there

1610
01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:39,519
Speaker 5: was all this hype kind of leading into the Notre

1611
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 5: Dame game. I believe it might have even been a

1612
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 5: bye week prior to that, and then we obviously saw

1613
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:48,040
Speaker 5: how that game and the rest of the season unfolded.

1614
01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:51,760
Speaker 5: I get the opponents are the opponents, but watching Week

1615
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:55,439
Speaker 5: one in Week two, has that made you rethink at

1616
01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:57,960
Speaker 5: all your expectations for Purdue the rest of the season

1617
01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,680
Speaker 5: or is the measuring stick just totally different what you're

1618
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 5: gonna face now moving forward?

1619
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, you're right. There was a bye week after the

1620
01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:07,160
Speaker 8: Indiana State win, and boy, the anticipation for that game

1621
01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:10,680
Speaker 8: last year and then the utter abomination. I think it

1622
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:13,479
Speaker 8: was forty two and nothing and a halftime sixty six

1623
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:17,120
Speaker 8: to seven final. But are my expectations changed because for

1624
01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:20,640
Speaker 8: the two and zero this year? I guess know, Like

1625
01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:23,840
Speaker 8: I said, I'm gonna still reserve judgment. You know, Las

1626
01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,320
Speaker 8: Vegas thought the over hunder went total for this team

1627
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 8: was three and a half, and I think that still

1628
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:31,680
Speaker 8: sounds about right. Three and nine, four and eight ish.

1629
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,840
Speaker 8: I think they probably will be favorite in the rest

1630
01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:37,160
Speaker 8: of the year. Maybe if you if you could the

1631
01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:41,120
Speaker 8: favorite at home against Rutgers, maybe their favorite at Northwestern.

1632
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:43,679
Speaker 8: Those two games you think pretty has a good chance

1633
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 8: to win. So there's four wins, so you know, maybe

1634
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:48,320
Speaker 8: four and eight, maybe the upsets somebody get to five

1635
01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:50,920
Speaker 8: into seven. But at this point, you know, just just

1636
01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:53,760
Speaker 8: just win, win one and two more games and just

1637
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:57,719
Speaker 8: look wise, look well coached, play good against your peers,

1638
01:12:57,720 --> 01:12:59,759
Speaker 8: and just don't get embarrassed. In the elite teams.

1639
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:02,400
Speaker 3: We have Tom Dean Hard joined us here on the

1640
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:06,200
Speaker 3: Payloffs Liquers Hotline. He covers the Purdue Boilermakers for on

1641
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,559
Speaker 3: three and I'm looking at the USC quarterback numbers Jade

1642
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:14,720
Speaker 3: and Mayava, who I said that correctly, And everything that

1643
01:13:14,760 --> 01:13:17,160
Speaker 3: I'm seeing is ubserved through two games, not good at

1644
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:20,640
Speaker 3: they haven't played much of anybody. But how do the

1645
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,400
Speaker 3: Boilermakers slow him down? And ultimately what are some keys

1646
01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:26,080
Speaker 3: you think to pulling out the upset victory at least

1647
01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 3: Court in Vegas.

1648
01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:29,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, it's kind of funny. You know, Barry

1649
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:32,479
Speaker 8: Otam actually coached Jade Mayeva at UNLV there there together

1650
01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 8: in twenty twenty three. He had an intimum knowledge of Jaden.

1651
01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:38,560
Speaker 8: I'm sure he's still love heaving Jayden as his quarterback,

1652
01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:42,400
Speaker 8: but how do you stop him? That's now Barry Odom's conundrum, right,

1653
01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,400
Speaker 8: And Peter Arbagaz talked a little bit about that. He

1654
01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:48,080
Speaker 8: says Prue's got to pressure him somehow, some way, And

1655
01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:50,840
Speaker 8: the pretty DC Mike year. He likes to be a

1656
01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:53,040
Speaker 8: little exotic with his blitzeres, and I think he's gonna

1657
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:56,480
Speaker 8: have be creative on Saturday. He likes to bring cornerbacks

1658
01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 8: guy some different angles, so they're gonna have to disrupt

1659
01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:02,320
Speaker 8: Jayden let him get comfortable, so that that's gonna be

1660
01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:04,240
Speaker 8: the key the pressure up front. I'm not sure if

1661
01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 8: the Proud d line can get a consistent rush without

1662
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:10,000
Speaker 8: a blitz, so I'm really intrigued to see how they

1663
01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:13,080
Speaker 8: defend Jaden trying to make him uncomfortable. Guys, you know,

1664
01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:15,880
Speaker 8: the first two games, I'm sure Prue didn't show all

1665
01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:17,559
Speaker 8: it's got, so they got some wrinkles that we haven't

1666
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:19,600
Speaker 8: seen yet. Then I'm really eager to see.

1667
01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 2: Tom. Last thing.

1668
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,760
Speaker 1: Are we gonna see Drew Brees about Rosside this weekend?

1669
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:31,000
Speaker 8: Yes, number fifteen, Drew Brees, the icon, the great one.

1670
01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:33,240
Speaker 8: We'll be back. I'm told he's gonna get it right

1671
01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 8: before the game. So it was a big reunion this weekend.

1672
01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:38,719
Speaker 8: The twenty fifth an verse. I cannot believe the guys

1673
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:42,160
Speaker 8: twenty five years ago. Pretty much the Rose Bowl seems

1674
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:45,479
Speaker 8: like yesterday. But Drew will be back, of course, along

1675
01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:48,760
Speaker 8: with just a raft of other boymakers, Annie Sutherland, Tim

1676
01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 8: Stratton's gonna be here, so you know, ste Schweigert, Travis Dorsh.

1677
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:55,559
Speaker 8: So it's gonna be neat to see those guys get honored.

1678
01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:58,280
Speaker 8: And yes, Drew Brees will be back and I'm sure

1679
01:14:58,280 --> 01:14:59,360
Speaker 8: the ovation will be loud to for.

1680
01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:01,560
Speaker 1: Him, right, It's gonna be a lot of fun to

1681
01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,559
Speaker 1: watch him. That's always good. So thanks so much for

1682
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 1: stopping by.

1683
01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:04,400
Speaker 8: Tom.

1684
01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:07,360
Speaker 1: As always, we appreciate that, We appreciate your insights and

1685
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 1: we'll talk.

1686
01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:08,400
Speaker 2: To you next week.

1687
01:15:09,080 --> 01:15:10,760
Speaker 8: Well, thanks for having me on, guys, be good.

1688
01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:13,679
Speaker 1: Tom Deaner on three joining us here on the paylist,

1689
01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:14,920
Speaker 1: Liquers Hotline and.

1690
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:17,160
Speaker 5: VI Otherland was a hell of the player. Gosh, there's

1691
01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:19,160
Speaker 5: some blasts in the past when Tom was rattling off

1692
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:19,679
Speaker 5: those names.

1693
01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:21,559
Speaker 1: Twenty five year anniversary of that team.

1694
01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:25,760
Speaker 5: I use got Indiana State coming up Friday nights, so

1695
01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:28,840
Speaker 5: Curtin Mallory and company heading down the Bloomington I do

1696
01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:31,439
Speaker 5: think an underrated aspect Indiana so far as the schedule

1697
01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:34,040
Speaker 5: is about to get tougher with the Fighting Boyds next

1698
01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:37,840
Speaker 5: Saturday and then at Iowa and at Oregon their run game.

1699
01:15:38,280 --> 01:15:39,800
Speaker 5: They've had a couple of different running backs that they

1700
01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,479
Speaker 5: have used here, the Bbkid and the NB Kid. Both

1701
01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:45,200
Speaker 5: of them have done a nice job here, so they're

1702
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 5: able to establish a little bit more balance. You know,

1703
01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:48,840
Speaker 5: their best half of the season by far is that

1704
01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:52,280
Speaker 5: second half against Kennessall State, after larger than kind of

1705
01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:54,200
Speaker 5: played with their food the first couple halves of the year.

1706
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,719
Speaker 5: We'll see how their final tune up goes before Bleep

1707
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,599
Speaker 5: starts to get real in Bloomington. Bleep's gonna get real

1708
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:04,160
Speaker 5: for Purdue coming up three thirty on Saturday, and it's

1709
01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:05,360
Speaker 5: about to get real in Bloomington.

1710
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:08,320
Speaker 3: Speaking of running backs, did you see Ohio State has

1711
01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:11,000
Speaker 3: a running back called Bo Jackson? His name is Bo Jackson.

1712
01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:13,559
Speaker 3: Really yes, and he's not built like Bo Jackson, but

1713
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:15,400
Speaker 3: he had a big game last week and I just

1714
01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:17,280
Speaker 3: thought that was hilarious. It So it's funny to me

1715
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 3: when I see players years after somebody dominated a sport

1716
01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:24,280
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh my gosh, his name is Kobe Bryant. Wow,

1717
01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:27,320
Speaker 3: his name is Bo Jackson. It's like, actually, it was

1718
01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:29,880
Speaker 3: a kid from one of the schools that I used

1719
01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:30,240
Speaker 3: to cover.

1720
01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:31,160
Speaker 1: Morton.

1721
01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 3: Shout out to the Morton governors. In Hammon, Indiana. They

1722
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:36,559
Speaker 3: had a kid on their team that went Division one

1723
01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:39,679
Speaker 3: and his name was Lebron Lebron Hill. I'm like, your

1724
01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:42,040
Speaker 3: parent named you after Lebron James and you actually were

1725
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 3: a great athlete, so respect to you.

1726
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:47,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, like a j Tiger Peyton, you know and all that.

1727
01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:50,679
Speaker 5: Like I'm going Bo Jackson. I mean that's a little

1728
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:51,200
Speaker 5: on so lot.

1729
01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:56,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah absolutely, but wait what you said Lebron is fair?

1730
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:58,719
Speaker 3: I mean that's not fair either. Well look, I wouldn't

1731
01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:00,479
Speaker 3: want to be named after any star, sure.

1732
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:02,360
Speaker 5: But when your last name is different, it doesn't ring

1733
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 5: as much as Bo freakin' Jackson.

1734
01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:05,080
Speaker 3: That's fair.

1735
01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:05,519
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1736
01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:07,920
Speaker 4: And it went down to like I thought it was.

1737
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:10,040
Speaker 2: Named Vincent.

1738
01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:14,679
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, there is Lebron Hill from him in Indiana.

1739
01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:16,240
Speaker 3: He's playing at Vanderbilt right now. And I'm like, your

1740
01:17:16,479 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 3: name's like, that's not a pressure.

1741
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:18,240
Speaker 1: I went.

1742
01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:20,080
Speaker 4: I went down an Instagram rabbit hole. Yes, stay, and

1743
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:22,040
Speaker 4: there's this video that popped up, you know, maybe laugh.

1744
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:22,519
Speaker 1: It was.

1745
01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:25,599
Speaker 4: It was college like the names of some college players

1746
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:28,280
Speaker 4: that are going around these days because the peopled all

1747
01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 4: these fascinating names like general Booty is an actual kid's name,

1748
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,040
Speaker 4: that's out there playing college football. And they said, because

1749
01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,519
Speaker 4: all these parents named these kids these weird names, now

1750
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:38,720
Speaker 4: they're growing up to be adults. So it's cute when

1751
01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:41,320
Speaker 4: they were toddlers, but now they're adults and now they

1752
01:17:41,439 --> 01:17:43,400
Speaker 4: got these crazy names, and they're all in the college

1753
01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:45,200
Speaker 4: football sphere right now.

1754
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,960
Speaker 5: I got into it three minute rabbit hole on Storm Duck,

1755
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:50,320
Speaker 5: the Miami dB. He got heard on Sunday all of

1756
01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:52,639
Speaker 5: a sudden when he was on the field injured. I'm

1757
01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:55,120
Speaker 5: like looking up his bio and everything, and I'm like,

1758
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:57,320
Speaker 5: can you imagine that name? Storm Duck? Sounds great on

1759
01:17:57,360 --> 01:17:59,680
Speaker 5: the playground, but I don't know if it's gonna work

1760
01:17:59,680 --> 01:17:59,960
Speaker 5: on the court.

1761
01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:00,600
Speaker 8: I No.

1762
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,840
Speaker 3: Last one from me. The funniest nickname so far that

1763
01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:06,280
Speaker 3: I've come across, at least recently, Washington Commander's running back

1764
01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:11,920
Speaker 3: Jacory krossky Merrit. His nickname is Bill, and we're like,

1765
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:13,120
Speaker 3: what is your nickname?

1766
01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 7: Bill?

1767
01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 1: Your name is Jacory.

1768
01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:17,519
Speaker 3: And he said that when he was young, he got

1769
01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:19,840
Speaker 3: his haircut super low and they called him Little Bill

1770
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:21,920
Speaker 3: from the show Little Bill, and he said it just stuck,

1771
01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,280
Speaker 3: and as he got older, they dropped the little part

1772
01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:27,160
Speaker 3: and just called him Bill. So that is literally his nickname,

1773
01:18:27,160 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 3: and I want to say on the roster they have

1774
01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:32,480
Speaker 3: him listed as Bill Krossky Merrit hilarious.

1775
01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:36,280
Speaker 1: Go Bill. That what's happening in the world of nicknames

1776
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:37,840
Speaker 1: this morning here on ninety three five and one o

1777
01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:40,240
Speaker 1: seven five The Fan coming up in just a moment, James,

1778
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 1: I got to get back to this NBA story that

1779
01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:45,599
Speaker 1: continues to grow just more and more fascinating by the moment.

1780
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:47,880
Speaker 1: We're also here a little bit from Rick Carlyle on

1781
01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:49,880
Speaker 1: the nine o'clock hours. We talked some pacers as the

1782
01:18:49,960 --> 01:18:53,599
Speaker 1: NBA season is getting closer and closer to us as well.

1783
01:18:53,640 --> 01:18:55,240
Speaker 1: It's all coming up on ninety three five and one

1784
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,719
Speaker 1: oh seven five The I think the universe is telling

1785
01:18:58,720 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: me something this morning. Mark.

1786
01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:01,840
Speaker 2: This is a song that was really popular when my

1787
01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:02,360
Speaker 2: wife and I.

1788
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:03,640
Speaker 1: Were going out. We'd play it in the car all

1789
01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:05,479
Speaker 1: the time, and I heard it this morning in the

1790
01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:07,759
Speaker 1: hallway over on the b and now you're playing it today,

1791
01:19:08,360 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 1: and I feel like maybe the universe is telling me

1792
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:12,800
Speaker 1: some I don't know what it is exactly, but I'm postle.

1793
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:14,160
Speaker 4: Myth, so maybe it's telling me about that.

1794
01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:14,760
Speaker 1: I know.

1795
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:15,640
Speaker 2: That's the crazy thing.

1796
01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:17,360
Speaker 1: About it. It's a great song, but it's not. You

1797
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:19,040
Speaker 1: listen to it and you're like, oh, we will be

1798
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:21,519
Speaker 1: kids in the car. Wait a minute on that one.

1799
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:23,800
Speaker 1: Here's something interesting, James, you and I were talking about

1800
01:19:23,840 --> 01:19:26,479
Speaker 1: this and Kevin was two last week, the whole Kawhi

1801
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 1: Leonard thing, and I'm just going to read from a

1802
01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:31,000
Speaker 1: cbosports dot com story that kind of encapsulates everything. It

1803
01:19:31,040 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 1: says the dominant story in the NBA is the investigation

1804
01:19:33,439 --> 01:19:36,880
Speaker 1: to whether Clippers owner Steve Ballmer circumitted the salary cap

1805
01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:40,080
Speaker 1: by funding a no show endorsement deal for Kawhi Leonard

1806
01:19:40,479 --> 01:19:43,599
Speaker 1: through one of the Clippers' sponsors, Aspiration. And we talked

1807
01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:45,640
Speaker 1: about that a lot, and you know, does this go

1808
01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:48,400
Speaker 1: on a lot where superstars even circumvent the salary cap

1809
01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:50,120
Speaker 1: by making even more money.

1810
01:19:49,920 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 2: By doing things kind of off the books.

1811
01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:55,160
Speaker 1: Well, now the league is opening investigation into that matter.

1812
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,439
Speaker 1: But yesterday a new report from Bruce Arthur of the

1813
01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:01,360
Speaker 1: Toronto Star indicates that if the LEE expands its investigation

1814
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:04,759
Speaker 1: to discussions with teams that pursued Leonard in free agency

1815
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:07,400
Speaker 1: back in twenty nineteen, that they will probably find that

1816
01:20:07,479 --> 01:20:11,600
Speaker 1: Leonard's a parent quote no show deal unquote with aspiration

1817
01:20:11,760 --> 01:20:14,920
Speaker 1: isn't quite as shocking as it initially seems. Arthur spoke

1818
01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 1: with a number of sources with the Raptors who were

1819
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,679
Speaker 1: part of the free agent negotiations with Leonard that involved

1820
01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:24,760
Speaker 1: his uncle and manager Dennis Robertson, and his demands allegedly

1821
01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:28,320
Speaker 1: went well beyond what teams can offer, including an ownership

1822
01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:31,640
Speaker 1: stake in the Toronto Maple Leafs of all things. Like,

1823
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:33,320
Speaker 1: it was just all give me, give me, give me.

1824
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:35,479
Speaker 1: What can we do outside this contract? Helped me out

1825
01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:35,920
Speaker 1: a little bit.

1826
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:38,519
Speaker 3: Paces If you're listening, whatever you have to do to

1827
01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:41,840
Speaker 3: get Wemby when he becomes a free agent, you do it, Okay, the.

1828
01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:43,240
Speaker 5: Wemby Tower instead of the sales.

1829
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:45,120
Speaker 1: I still want to.

1830
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:47,160
Speaker 3: Put a patent on Wemby to Andy, because I was

1831
01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:49,519
Speaker 3: preaching that before the draft when they got ben Nick Matheren.

1832
01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:52,160
Speaker 3: But I mean a lot of it now, in my opinion,

1833
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:56,600
Speaker 3: is very nefarious, at least on the surface. But I

1834
01:20:56,600 --> 01:21:00,720
Speaker 3: want to know what will the league do? And selfishly,

1835
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:03,840
Speaker 3: I can't wait until media Day rolls around for these

1836
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 3: teams because you know we has to talk on media day.

1837
01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:08,320
Speaker 3: Kawhile Leonard now he might. He probably won't talk about

1838
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:12,439
Speaker 3: this at all, but the coach, the GM, the owner,

1839
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 3: all of them are going to be asked about this.

1840
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:17,120
Speaker 3: So this is a huge, huge story and the NBA

1841
01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,599
Speaker 3: will likely have to do something. But I also don't

1842
01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:22,080
Speaker 3: know if they will be able to approve they did

1843
01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:26,200
Speaker 3: something illegal or wrong or circumvented the cap. So it's

1844
01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:27,679
Speaker 3: an interesting situation for sure.

1845
01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:29,960
Speaker 1: It's it's crazy because here's the crazy part of it.

1846
01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:32,519
Speaker 1: The investigation of the report that in The Toronto Star

1847
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:35,439
Speaker 1: said it didn't end there. As one source put it,

1848
01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:38,040
Speaker 1: when tod Abell told about all the corporate sponsors in

1849
01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:41,160
Speaker 1: Toronto who would be happy to have Leonard as a pitchman,

1850
01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:44,439
Speaker 1: his camp responded, Oh, we don't want to do anything,

1851
01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:48,519
Speaker 1: We just want the money and endorsement. Yeah.

1852
01:21:48,560 --> 01:21:50,559
Speaker 3: But again, like all of this is coming out years

1853
01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:51,920
Speaker 3: after the fact. So did he do it or did

1854
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,760
Speaker 3: he not? That's my biggest thing. I'm very confused by it.

1855
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:57,120
Speaker 3: But I guess that's about as much as I can

1856
01:21:57,120 --> 01:21:59,360
Speaker 3: give Kawhi Leonard on this fine Wednesday morning.

1857
01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,840
Speaker 1: Stuff sens because it is something being an NBA franchise

1858
01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:05,040
Speaker 1: that sometimes struggles to get a lot of these free

1859
01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:06,639
Speaker 1: wat you up against.

1860
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:09,200
Speaker 3: Sometimes we can offer him, you know, a lifetime of sat.

1861
01:22:09,240 --> 01:22:10,720
Speaker 3: I'm old shrimp cocktail.

1862
01:22:10,320 --> 01:22:16,439
Speaker 5: And ready to come off just thinking that Wemby Stadium.

1863
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:18,439
Speaker 3: Well, you know me and my rich Illinois alum will

1864
01:22:18,479 --> 01:22:19,920
Speaker 3: I'll talk to the guy who don't need one hundred

1865
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:22,320
Speaker 3: million and tell them, hey, you know, throw.

1866
01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:23,920
Speaker 1: Another fifty over here for women. You need to get

1867
01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:24,200
Speaker 1: on that.

1868
01:22:24,640 --> 01:22:25,960
Speaker 3: Wemby to Indy, man, I need it.

1869
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:28,200
Speaker 1: Get T shirts, Kevin Wemby to Indy.

1870
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:31,759
Speaker 5: You know a guy T shirts? Why not speed us?

1871
01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:34,080
Speaker 1: This is true.

1872
01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:36,040
Speaker 2: Starting to become concerned on.

1873
01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:38,080
Speaker 3: A more serious note to moving back a little bit.

1874
01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:40,200
Speaker 3: I know we got to hit a break here, but

1875
01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:43,439
Speaker 3: I'm very curious to talk more about how will this

1876
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 3: how will this group respond to expectations? Because yes, and

1877
01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:51,680
Speaker 3: I think when you look at the pacers and the expectations,

1878
01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:53,880
Speaker 3: they've changed a little bit. But at the same time,

1879
01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:55,479
Speaker 3: I will a lot a bit without Tyres Taliburn. But

1880
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:58,080
Speaker 3: at the same time, they're not going to lay down.

1881
01:22:58,280 --> 01:22:59,880
Speaker 3: So what is this ceiling for this team? And I'm

1882
01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:01,920
Speaker 3: curious to find that out. Obviously won't It'll be some

1883
01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:04,639
Speaker 3: months before we figure that out. But to me, they're

1884
01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:06,439
Speaker 3: still a playoff team and what does that mean and

1885
01:23:06,560 --> 01:23:09,599
Speaker 3: how do you get there with this new look Pacers group.

1886
01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:11,160
Speaker 1: We'll talk about some of that coming up in just

1887
01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:12,720
Speaker 1: a moment. Get back to the Colts getting ready for

1888
01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:16,080
Speaker 1: the Broncos as well, and the fever in the postseason,

1889
01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:18,880
Speaker 1: and they've officially concluded their regular season. It's all straight

1890
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,559
Speaker 1: ahead in the next hour, including your comments. You want

1891
01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:23,200
Speaker 1: to get in on it, two, three, nine, ten, seventy

1892
01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:24,960
Speaker 1: on the fan text line, you can call us up

1893
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,320
Speaker 1: as well. We continue on ninety three five and one

1894
01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:30,799
Speaker 1: O seven to five to the fan time hills everything

1895
01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:32,840
Speaker 1: and as bummed out as we were and as down

1896
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,000
Speaker 1: as we were after the way things ended in Game

1897
01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:39,160
Speaker 1: seven of the NBA Finals. I can't wait for Tyrese

1898
01:23:39,160 --> 01:23:41,479
Speaker 1: Holliburton to get healthy and come back next year. That

1899
01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to. But I still kind of have

1900
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:47,879
Speaker 1: the feeling that this team Kevin Bowen, will do okay

1901
01:23:47,920 --> 01:23:50,080
Speaker 1: this coming year. I don't think they're just gonna fall

1902
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:53,479
Speaker 1: off the cliff define okay. I think forty five to

1903
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:55,280
Speaker 1: fifty wins and even a playoff series.

1904
01:23:55,360 --> 01:23:56,479
Speaker 3: Well, no, I definitely don't think that.

1905
01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 4: Fine.

1906
01:23:57,520 --> 01:23:59,200
Speaker 5: I didn't win fifty last year.

1907
01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:03,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they also came back from that horrific start

1908
01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:05,240
Speaker 1: to win fifty. Man, I was a team that, had

1909
01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:07,360
Speaker 1: they been rolling all year long, could have won fifty

1910
01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:07,960
Speaker 1: five games.

1911
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:10,640
Speaker 5: Easy, know how good Tyres Aliburn is a basketball.

1912
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:10,759
Speaker 2: I do.

1913
01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:15,080
Speaker 1: Which is a loss that that is definitely a lot

1914
01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:17,040
Speaker 1: and lost and there's gonna be challenges. But I think

1915
01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:19,960
Speaker 1: the way this team plays, they're gonna catch a lot

1916
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:22,960
Speaker 1: of teams nappen on Tuesdays and Thursday nights in the

1917
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 1: middle of the season on the road. The way they play,

1918
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:27,960
Speaker 1: the pace that they played, They're gonna win some basketball games.

1919
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,200
Speaker 5: Look, I think the Patriots are gonna win some basketball games.

1920
01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:32,160
Speaker 5: But I think it's a I think it's a bit

1921
01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:33,920
Speaker 5: of a shot at Tyre's Aliburn to act like they're

1922
01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:36,919
Speaker 5: gonna win fifty games forty five though.

1923
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:42,400
Speaker 4: To me, I think I said the eighty Mitchell eighty

1924
01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:43,760
Speaker 4: catch thing all over again.

1925
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:46,519
Speaker 2: Look, I'm sorry, I'm optimistic about things. What do you

1926
01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:49,160
Speaker 2: want me to do? I like the players on this

1927
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:50,120
Speaker 2: team still.

1928
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:53,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, I also like many of the players on this

1929
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,000
Speaker 5: basketball team. But you know, also cannot go with the

1930
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:00,160
Speaker 5: same win total from last season. You know, I was

1931
01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:02,200
Speaker 5: thinking a little bit on the drive end this morning

1932
01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:05,880
Speaker 5: about this upclaim Pacers season. You know, we're probably less

1933
01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:07,439
Speaker 5: We definitely are less than a month away from the

1934
01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:09,840
Speaker 5: first preseason game, and training came just a few weeks away.

1935
01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:12,479
Speaker 5: And you know, a guy that I'm really curious about

1936
01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:17,000
Speaker 5: is Jaris Walker, you know, former top ten pick going

1937
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:19,200
Speaker 5: into year three. And as you start to do the

1938
01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:21,599
Speaker 5: domino thing, Okay, Tyreese is out, what does that mean? Okay,

1939
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:24,240
Speaker 5: Andrew Nemhart now becomes point guard. Okay, Benedict Mathern now

1940
01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:26,559
Speaker 5: sides in the starting lineup. Those are like the obvious

1941
01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:31,839
Speaker 5: big dominoes impacted by the Halliburton news. Well, if Matherin's

1942
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:34,280
Speaker 5: in the starting lineup, you need a new lead guy

1943
01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:36,920
Speaker 5: with that second unit who's gonna kind of be the

1944
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:41,040
Speaker 5: catalyst for that second unit. And is year three for

1945
01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:44,840
Speaker 5: Jaris Walker? That you know you go back to that

1946
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:47,479
Speaker 5: nixt series James, and he got a few of those

1947
01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:50,599
Speaker 5: d nps in that next series and then got hurt.

1948
01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:54,080
Speaker 5: Remember yeah, in in the clincher in the Game six clincher,

1949
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:58,040
Speaker 5: didn't play in the finals. But like, what is year

1950
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:01,960
Speaker 5: three four? Walker? I take through two years, I've been

1951
01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:06,320
Speaker 5: more impressed by him offensively than maybe defensively. And now

1952
01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:09,439
Speaker 5: it's like, all right, you came out after a freshman

1953
01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:12,200
Speaker 5: year at Houston, this is supposed to be your senior

1954
01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:16,840
Speaker 5: year if you will in college. Because if he takes

1955
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 5: a jump, which guys take jumps in the NBA big jumps,

1956
01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:23,800
Speaker 5: If he takes that jump, now when you restart to

1957
01:26:23,840 --> 01:26:29,280
Speaker 5: Tyrese Haliburton window, maybe he's one of these guys that's

1958
01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:33,400
Speaker 5: more of a cornerstone piece. Whereas right now, you know

1959
01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:36,200
Speaker 5: it'd obviously be way too far fetched to commit to that.

1960
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:39,479
Speaker 3: So question, and I know we'll get into some of

1961
01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:41,479
Speaker 3: the audio that we have from Rick Carlisle when he

1962
01:26:41,560 --> 01:26:47,400
Speaker 3: joined us earlier this offseason, but a bigger key to

1963
01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:51,719
Speaker 3: the Pacers long term success Benedict Mathern or Jared Walker.

1964
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:57,000
Speaker 5: Gosh, part of me almost wants to cop out and

1965
01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:03,120
Speaker 5: say either. I almost view James that as one of

1966
01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:04,639
Speaker 5: them will be a piece and the other one will

1967
01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 5: be a trade kind of how I view their situations. Now,

1968
01:27:10,880 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 5: let's dive deeper into that. Let's look at each player

1969
01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:19,120
Speaker 5: who's easier to put alongside Tyres Halliburn. Is it Walker

1970
01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:23,639
Speaker 5: more than Matherin. It might be because Mathern's a more

1971
01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:26,320
Speaker 5: ball dominant guy, etc. Maybe Walker is a little bit

1972
01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:29,000
Speaker 5: more of a you know, I don't know, traditional sidekick

1973
01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:31,959
Speaker 5: and three and D wing and that sort of aspect

1974
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:36,400
Speaker 5: to him. Now, obviously Matherin has done ten one hundred

1975
01:27:36,439 --> 01:27:38,719
Speaker 5: times more in his NBA career than Walker's done. Yeah,

1976
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:42,920
Speaker 5: from a production standpoint here, but that's kind of how

1977
01:27:42,960 --> 01:27:45,439
Speaker 5: I view it. I guess is one of them will

1978
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:49,080
Speaker 5: be a key, key, key piece and the other one

1979
01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:51,920
Speaker 5: might have to be the dangling carrot in the trade

1980
01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:53,800
Speaker 5: to get you something else.

1981
01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:58,080
Speaker 3: Interesting to me because when I look at what Walker

1982
01:27:58,160 --> 01:28:01,559
Speaker 3: could be like if he absolutely hits the ceiling, big

1983
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:05,320
Speaker 3: wings in the NBA, those are the players that usually

1984
01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:07,240
Speaker 3: get you over the top, and you look at the

1985
01:28:07,240 --> 01:28:08,840
Speaker 3: best players in the league, they're usually guys on the

1986
01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:12,360
Speaker 3: perimeter with length and height, and that's what he has.

1987
01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:15,439
Speaker 3: But I am also curious because Benigt Mathering, you know

1988
01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:19,280
Speaker 3: his mindset, and I do think you need a slightly

1989
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,400
Speaker 3: crazy guy on your team. And I don't say that

1990
01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:24,439
Speaker 3: as a slight to him. I just mean he plays

1991
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:26,519
Speaker 3: with a little more force and edge, I think than

1992
01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:28,920
Speaker 3: other guys on the team, and he brings sort of

1993
01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:32,439
Speaker 3: that that competitive spirit in a different way, and it's

1994
01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:35,120
Speaker 3: more in your face than other guys. So you know,

1995
01:28:35,160 --> 01:28:36,680
Speaker 3: in the perfect world, you probably want both of them

1996
01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:38,920
Speaker 3: to take a step forward. So I'll let you, you know,

1997
01:28:39,040 --> 01:28:40,040
Speaker 3: take over it from their case.

1998
01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:42,240
Speaker 5: Mark, let's dial up this clib. This is Rick Carlisle

1999
01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:46,599
Speaker 5: on with us. Remember the ankle injury for Jarris back

2000
01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,360
Speaker 5: in game six to that next series. So we asked

2001
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:51,559
Speaker 5: Rick a few weeks back just kind of where Jarrifs

2002
01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 5: is at healthwise.

2003
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:57,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, his health is good right now. You know that

2004
01:28:57,080 --> 01:28:59,960
Speaker 6: that was a serious injury that he suffered in game

2005
01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:04,799
Speaker 6: and I think it's important to note that Jar's had

2006
01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:09,320
Speaker 6: a very productive year. He played i think over fifteen

2007
01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:14,280
Speaker 6: and a half minutes a game. You know, he played

2008
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:17,840
Speaker 6: very effectively during certain stretches of the playoffs. He was

2009
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:22,320
Speaker 6: a big factor in Game four at Milwaukee, where you know,

2010
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:27,720
Speaker 6: we were able to get ourselves in a position to

2011
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:29,720
Speaker 6: steal a road game. That was a that was a

2012
01:29:29,760 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 6: big deal. And you know, he played well throughout the year.

2013
01:29:33,640 --> 01:29:35,960
Speaker 6: And so the big things for him are going to

2014
01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:47,120
Speaker 6: be conditioning, motor toughness, rebounding defense, and in a real

2015
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:51,960
Speaker 6: high degree of understanding of the importance of possession of

2016
01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:54,080
Speaker 6: the ball. And that's not just him, that's everybody. I think,

2017
01:29:54,680 --> 01:29:56,760
Speaker 6: with what we're going into this year, you know we're

2018
01:29:56,800 --> 01:30:01,679
Speaker 6: gonna be without a guy in Tyrese who's historically great

2019
01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:07,840
Speaker 6: with his ability to do amazing things on the basketball floor,

2020
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:15,560
Speaker 6: creating pace, scoring, getting the ball of the rim, hitting floaters,

2021
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:21,160
Speaker 6: throwing it ahead to teammates, getting assists, and with the

2022
01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:26,000
Speaker 6: usage rate that he has, his ability to have security

2023
01:30:26,040 --> 01:30:28,120
Speaker 6: with the ball and not turn the ball over is

2024
01:30:28,280 --> 01:30:31,400
Speaker 6: like you know, has been has been historic, and so

2025
01:30:33,040 --> 01:30:36,479
Speaker 6: our team is going to have to really develop an

2026
01:30:36,520 --> 01:30:41,360
Speaker 6: even greater understanding and appreciation of the importance of possession.

2027
01:30:43,439 --> 01:30:45,640
Speaker 6: But in a year like this that we have coming up,

2028
01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:49,160
Speaker 6: Jared's is a very important guy because he can play

2029
01:30:49,240 --> 01:30:53,800
Speaker 6: multiple positions really including point guard. I mean, you know,

2030
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:56,559
Speaker 6: he handles the ball that well, but I want I

2031
01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,160
Speaker 6: want to see him be able to get a rebound

2032
01:30:59,200 --> 01:31:03,080
Speaker 6: at one end and put on the burners and go

2033
01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:06,479
Speaker 6: coast to coast with speed and attack the rim at

2034
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 6: the other I think he has the ability to do that.

2035
01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:12,120
Speaker 6: So I know he's working on those those things along

2036
01:31:12,160 --> 01:31:15,559
Speaker 6: with a lot of other things. But it took him

2037
01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:18,280
Speaker 6: a good two months before he was back on the

2038
01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:23,040
Speaker 6: court going one hundred percent, and so it's going to

2039
01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:27,760
Speaker 6: be an active end of the summer for him.

2040
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:31,599
Speaker 1: Rick Carlisle talking to the Fan Morning Show not too

2041
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:35,920
Speaker 1: long ago, and to your point earlier Kevin about having

2042
01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:38,680
Speaker 1: two pieces like that ultimately and maybe you have to

2043
01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:41,120
Speaker 1: trade one. What a great position to have to put

2044
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:43,680
Speaker 1: yourself into by the end of next year that you

2045
01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:45,600
Speaker 1: have to make a decision over two guys that are

2046
01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:46,960
Speaker 1: playing exceedingly.

2047
01:31:46,479 --> 01:31:50,200
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, it's you obviously have I think a couple

2048
01:31:50,200 --> 01:31:53,760
Speaker 5: of pieces that would be intriguing to those around the NBA.

2049
01:31:53,960 --> 01:31:57,439
Speaker 5: I also don't think it's very easy though, Like right now,

2050
01:31:57,520 --> 01:32:01,800
Speaker 5: I don't know what do you do with Matherick, what

2051
01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 5: do you do with Walker? Long term? You know, again,

2052
01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:08,400
Speaker 5: they're gonna be in very different roles this coming season,

2053
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:13,040
Speaker 5: and evaluating them in the different roles I think also

2054
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:16,120
Speaker 5: complicates it because theoretically, when Tyreez comes back, you're not

2055
01:32:16,120 --> 01:32:18,559
Speaker 5: necessarily asking them to be in those roles. It's gonna

2056
01:32:18,640 --> 01:32:23,680
Speaker 5: change anymore. So, Yeah, this is such a fascinating Pacers season.

2057
01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:25,240
Speaker 1: And Heart's role changes too.

2058
01:32:25,360 --> 01:32:27,840
Speaker 5: Sure, Sure, and you know, an eighty two night point

2059
01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:30,280
Speaker 5: guard is a lot different. We've brought this up before, Nemhart,

2060
01:32:30,280 --> 01:32:32,000
Speaker 5: and I know Rick hit on it with us a

2061
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:34,559
Speaker 5: few weeks back. You know, there were nights where you

2062
01:32:34,560 --> 01:32:37,639
Speaker 5: play Atlanta or you played Memphis, or you play the Knicks,

2063
01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:41,280
Speaker 5: and you'd say, Andrew Nemhart, all right, Trey Young, John Moran,

2064
01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:45,680
Speaker 5: Jalen Brunson, you can't give him those assignments anymore, not

2065
01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:48,840
Speaker 5: with the point guard duties that you're gonna ask of him.

2066
01:32:48,880 --> 01:32:50,759
Speaker 5: Guys in the NBA just don't do that for forty

2067
01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:53,160
Speaker 5: minutes a night. And Rick, I think, has been very

2068
01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:56,160
Speaker 5: outspoken and like we've got to protect him. You know,

2069
01:32:56,160 --> 01:32:58,920
Speaker 5: he brought up the foul trouble with us, you know

2070
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,640
Speaker 5: of like how many times is Angel them hard? You know,

2071
01:33:01,880 --> 01:33:03,880
Speaker 5: hit that first, you know, time out, he's already got

2072
01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:05,960
Speaker 5: a foul or maybe he gets two in the first half.

2073
01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:08,719
Speaker 5: Where's Tyrese And you know, obviously he's a much different defender.

2074
01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:13,040
Speaker 5: Worst defender is not in that same sort of foul

2075
01:33:13,040 --> 01:33:16,800
Speaker 5: trouble there. So I think it's going to be a

2076
01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:21,800
Speaker 5: super interesting Pacer season for fans to watch. And then

2077
01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:25,040
Speaker 5: I think internally as a franchise, I think it's also

2078
01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,360
Speaker 5: going to be just kind of difficult to gauge and

2079
01:33:28,560 --> 01:33:33,360
Speaker 5: project guys into the next Haliburton window, because that's kind

2080
01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:36,320
Speaker 5: of where you're looking at age twenty seven to thirty two.

2081
01:33:36,520 --> 01:33:38,280
Speaker 5: That's that's kind of where you're looking at the next

2082
01:33:38,280 --> 01:33:41,360
Speaker 5: Haliburton window. All right, who are the puzzle pieces for

2083
01:33:41,439 --> 01:33:44,800
Speaker 5: that window? Seacom's probably not going to be the guy

2084
01:33:44,920 --> 01:33:47,680
Speaker 5: for that whole window, So who else? Obviously Turner is not,

2085
01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:51,920
Speaker 5: so who else is there? Nie Smith, them Hard Matherin, Walker,

2086
01:33:52,120 --> 01:33:56,200
Speaker 5: Furfee I'm sure I'm forgetting people right now, but you know,

2087
01:33:56,240 --> 01:33:57,639
Speaker 5: those are some of the names that you look at

2088
01:33:57,640 --> 01:33:58,360
Speaker 5: one of those centers.

2089
01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:00,679
Speaker 1: Let's talk about for Free for a second too, because

2090
01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:03,479
Speaker 1: he had a terrific summer league. There's a question about that.

2091
01:34:03,560 --> 01:34:06,880
Speaker 1: But just listening to Rick talk about him, you since

2092
01:34:07,080 --> 01:34:09,960
Speaker 1: genuine excitement about what's possible with him.

2093
01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:11,280
Speaker 5: Certainly, but again, where are the minutes?

2094
01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:11,639
Speaker 1: Right?

2095
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:14,280
Speaker 5: Where are the minutes which you know, when healthy, it's

2096
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,200
Speaker 5: obviously a great, great problem to have. Naturally, some of

2097
01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:18,320
Speaker 5: that I think will happen.

2098
01:34:18,520 --> 01:34:18,680
Speaker 6: You know.

2099
01:34:18,720 --> 01:34:20,519
Speaker 5: The weird thing with this, James is I feel like

2100
01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:24,680
Speaker 5: I've watched Walker and Furfey through the first couple of seasons.

2101
01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:29,759
Speaker 5: I've honestly been more impressed by Furfey doing other things

2102
01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:33,320
Speaker 5: than I have Walker doing other things. Like Rick just

2103
01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:38,080
Speaker 5: laid out motor toughness, rebounding defense. I'm waiting for more

2104
01:34:38,160 --> 01:34:41,240
Speaker 5: with Walker in that area, whereas with Furfey, I feel

2105
01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:42,880
Speaker 5: like i've I've kind of seen that. I mean, we

2106
01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:45,200
Speaker 5: all saw the infamous dunk, but like when he's gotten

2107
01:34:45,200 --> 01:34:47,720
Speaker 5: in the NBA games, I'm like, Damn, there's Furfey making

2108
01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:50,799
Speaker 5: a hustle play, like doing something. If if I remember correctly,

2109
01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:53,920
Speaker 5: I think Rick dropped the name of Ben Shephard in

2110
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:57,839
Speaker 5: complimenting Furfey. Well, we know how Rick thinks of Ben Shephard.

2111
01:34:58,720 --> 01:35:03,439
Speaker 5: That's like, you know, compliment a sun. So you know, again,

2112
01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:05,880
Speaker 5: where does Furfy kind of crack the rotation? I think

2113
01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:07,960
Speaker 5: is another little storyline here.

2114
01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and as we talked about, whenever your roles are

2115
01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:12,719
Speaker 3: very defined like they were last year and they change

2116
01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:17,200
Speaker 3: seemingly overnight because of the Halliburton injury, yes, you'll have

2117
01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:18,800
Speaker 3: all off season and kind of carve it out. But

2118
01:35:19,880 --> 01:35:22,160
Speaker 3: I would just say to those out there, there's a

2119
01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:26,360
Speaker 3: reason why those roles were what they were. For example,

2120
01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:29,720
Speaker 3: when Tyres went down in Game seven. Unfortunately, you have

2121
01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:33,240
Speaker 3: people saying, well, TJ McConnell, you know, he was cooking

2122
01:35:33,320 --> 01:35:34,960
Speaker 3: then he kind of like, you know, cooled off, and

2123
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:36,800
Speaker 3: why he couldn't just keep that up the entire game

2124
01:35:37,560 --> 01:35:40,320
Speaker 3: because he's not a better players Like yeah, like if

2125
01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:43,760
Speaker 3: he were, he would be a starter. And that's no shot.

2126
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:46,360
Speaker 3: TJ McConnell one of the best backup point guards in

2127
01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:48,240
Speaker 3: the NBA, one of the best energy guys in the NBA,

2128
01:35:48,320 --> 01:35:49,920
Speaker 3: and really he could just fly out hoop. I don't

2129
01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:51,440
Speaker 3: want to just credit him with a bunch of cliches.

2130
01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:54,680
Speaker 3: But again, what does Andrew Nemhard look like when it's

2131
01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:58,880
Speaker 3: more on his plate? And to Kevin's point earlier, I

2132
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:02,200
Speaker 3: think again when it comes to Halliburton, because his game

2133
01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,120
Speaker 3: isn't so much in your face as it is with

2134
01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:11,559
Speaker 3: you know, Lebron Luca Johannis, where they're just very dominant scorers.

2135
01:36:12,960 --> 01:36:15,240
Speaker 3: He makes the engine go. He is the engine of

2136
01:36:15,280 --> 01:36:17,559
Speaker 3: the offense. When you lose the engine, you know, trying

2137
01:36:17,560 --> 01:36:19,840
Speaker 3: to redo it with the other parts as possible. But

2138
01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:21,360
Speaker 3: I think it'll look a lot different and there will

2139
01:36:21,400 --> 01:36:22,479
Speaker 3: be some growing pangs for sure.

2140
01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:24,360
Speaker 1: Do you think that there will be decisions to be

2141
01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:27,559
Speaker 1: made as the season goes along with Andrew m Hart,

2142
01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:31,000
Speaker 1: like eight tonight, it's more important because he's playing a

2143
01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:34,720
Speaker 1: really terrific scoring guard, that we use his energy more

2144
01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:37,639
Speaker 1: defensively and try to spread some point guard duties around.

2145
01:36:38,120 --> 01:36:40,479
Speaker 3: I think you would want to. But in my mind

2146
01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:42,400
Speaker 3: and the way the NBA works and how great you

2147
01:36:42,439 --> 01:36:45,920
Speaker 3: know offensive players are, I would lean more towards and

2148
01:36:45,960 --> 01:36:48,000
Speaker 3: running my offense than trying to slow somebody down on defense.

2149
01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:50,519
Speaker 3: And because a great players are gonna score.

2150
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:53,479
Speaker 5: Rick's always like two ball handlers out there. Yeah, even

2151
01:36:53,520 --> 01:36:56,160
Speaker 5: with the second unit, he's like that with your starting

2152
01:36:56,200 --> 01:37:00,479
Speaker 5: lineup right now, mathering a Nie Smith, you're and three.

2153
01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:03,280
Speaker 5: I don't think you really view as another ball handler.

2154
01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:06,240
Speaker 5: They you know, Matherin especially is a very good driver.

2155
01:37:06,840 --> 01:37:08,960
Speaker 5: It's definitely an area of ne Smith's game that has

2156
01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:11,160
Speaker 5: to show some growth. But so I think got something

2157
01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:13,519
Speaker 5: to watch and we'll see about an East Smith contract extension.

2158
01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:16,360
Speaker 5: That one I think I think can kind of fit

2159
01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:18,519
Speaker 5: a little bit more. I think the Matherin one from

2160
01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:23,640
Speaker 5: both sides involves some complications here, but I should be

2161
01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:26,160
Speaker 5: getting started here in a few weeks for little training.

2162
01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:29,719
Speaker 5: I want to say. October first was training camp day

2163
01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:32,519
Speaker 5: one last year. So we are, uh, we're nearing that

2164
01:37:32,520 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 5: about three three weeks away.

2165
01:37:34,200 --> 01:37:36,400
Speaker 1: Yep. As far as the here and now, we're getting

2166
01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:38,599
Speaker 1: ready for Week two in the NFL. The Colts be

2167
01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:42,120
Speaker 1: hosting the Denver Broncos this coming weekend. We've talked a

2168
01:37:42,160 --> 01:37:45,720
Speaker 1: lot this morning about as impressive as that offense was

2169
01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:47,880
Speaker 1: for the Colts, they're going to get a test this week. James,

2170
01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:50,160
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it. This is this is a

2171
01:37:50,240 --> 01:37:52,280
Speaker 1: for real defense they're going to be going against.

2172
01:37:52,280 --> 01:37:55,880
Speaker 3: This one absolutely Vans Joseph and those guys are no joke.

2173
01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:57,160
Speaker 3: I mean they have the defensive player of the year

2174
01:37:57,160 --> 01:38:00,599
Speaker 3: over there, and Patrick Sartain the second and then Nick Benino,

2175
01:38:00,720 --> 01:38:03,400
Speaker 3: like I said, second team All Pro last year. Do

2176
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,000
Speaker 3: you remember the pick six he had against the Colts,

2177
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:08,400
Speaker 3: which I guess technically wasn't a pick six. It was

2178
01:38:08,479 --> 01:38:10,240
Speaker 3: kind of a fumble because it was a backwards pass.

2179
01:38:10,240 --> 01:38:12,960
Speaker 3: But nevertheless, we all remember that play and you don't

2180
01:38:12,960 --> 01:38:14,559
Speaker 3: want to see that again on Sunday, that's for sure.

2181
01:38:14,640 --> 01:38:17,040
Speaker 5: I think Change Second is a very good offensive coach.

2182
01:38:17,400 --> 01:38:24,120
Speaker 5: I think he maximizes his offense very well. I cannot

2183
01:38:24,120 --> 01:38:27,960
Speaker 5: believe the stupidity in that play call. I was thinking

2184
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:30,559
Speaker 5: back on that the other day. Can you think about

2185
01:38:30,560 --> 01:38:33,880
Speaker 5: that with the season on the line, you rely on

2186
01:38:33,920 --> 01:38:36,880
Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson to complete a pass to Adie Mitchell first,

2187
01:38:37,120 --> 01:38:38,840
Speaker 5: that was the first part of play. Yeah, then you

2188
01:38:38,960 --> 01:38:41,160
Speaker 5: need Adie Mitchell to then throw the ball back to

2189
01:38:41,240 --> 01:38:45,760
Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson and also complete a pass, Like is there

2190
01:38:45,880 --> 01:38:49,080
Speaker 5: any more of a I draw this up on a whiteboard,

2191
01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:50,960
Speaker 5: and I think it's genius. And I don't care if

2192
01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:54,400
Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson is an inconsistent offensive player, and I don't

2193
01:38:54,400 --> 01:38:56,559
Speaker 5: care if Adie Mitchell is also, and it can like,

2194
01:38:57,240 --> 01:39:00,600
Speaker 5: how in the world did change? Second think that was smart?

2195
01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:04,759
Speaker 2: Didn't work out? I remember work end of your season.

2196
01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:07,360
Speaker 3: So my reaction literally in the press box, you know,

2197
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:10,639
Speaker 3: you can't like scream or clap or react like that.

2198
01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:13,200
Speaker 5: You had to mouse something on your No, what I.

2199
01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:17,080
Speaker 3: Did was, and this is true story, or in the

2200
01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:19,719
Speaker 3: press box and the play happens, and I just stood

2201
01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:23,080
Speaker 3: up and like put my hands on my head and

2202
01:39:23,080 --> 01:39:25,240
Speaker 3: then sat back down real quick because I couldn't believe

2203
01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:28,879
Speaker 3: that that happened. And it wasn't like cheering or jeering.

2204
01:39:29,000 --> 01:39:31,920
Speaker 3: I was just honestly shocked.

2205
01:39:31,920 --> 01:39:34,759
Speaker 2: I believe what I just saw. There was an.

2206
01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:37,120
Speaker 3: Audible gas but everyone involved.

2207
01:39:36,760 --> 01:39:39,560
Speaker 5: And I don't believe what I just saw it.

2208
01:39:39,640 --> 01:39:45,240
Speaker 3: And I remember thinking afterwards, in this locker room, I

2209
01:39:45,240 --> 01:39:48,599
Speaker 3: have to find two people, Jon Taylor and Adie Mitchell,

2210
01:39:48,680 --> 01:39:50,760
Speaker 3: like you both of you got answer for this. And

2211
01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:53,800
Speaker 3: unfortunately for ad you know, he was kind of put

2212
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:56,240
Speaker 3: in that position by his coach. He should never throw

2213
01:39:56,280 --> 01:39:56,639
Speaker 3: that pass.

2214
01:39:56,680 --> 01:39:58,640
Speaker 5: I don't blame Richardson or ad at all.

2215
01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:03,240
Speaker 3: Really, I I blame I can't absolve the player completely.

2216
01:40:03,760 --> 01:40:05,719
Speaker 2: Don't put him in that position, I.

2217
01:40:05,680 --> 01:40:08,559
Speaker 3: Understand, But just see the play. The man got the ball,

2218
01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:10,800
Speaker 3: he's smunning and got it on the seams and was

2219
01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:14,160
Speaker 3: taking his down. I'm like, eighty, like, this is all timing.

2220
01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:16,439
Speaker 5: Brother, you get what you ask for.

2221
01:40:16,680 --> 01:40:18,640
Speaker 3: That's true, But do you still have free wall as

2222
01:40:18,640 --> 01:40:19,920
Speaker 3: a player to not throw that pass?

2223
01:40:19,960 --> 01:40:24,519
Speaker 9: Socket richletely empty sett Richardson throws at the Mitchell Mitchell behind.

2224
01:40:24,280 --> 01:40:27,120
Speaker 2: The line, gonna throw us out. Richardson though he threw

2225
01:40:27,120 --> 01:40:29,719
Speaker 2: it back to Richardson and it's picked off. Every're gonna

2226
01:40:29,720 --> 01:40:30,679
Speaker 2: go the other way.

2227
01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:32,120
Speaker 1: And they're gonna score a touchdown.

2228
01:40:32,520 --> 01:40:35,320
Speaker 9: Denver intercepts to throw it back, pass back to Anthony

2229
01:40:35,439 --> 01:40:36,760
Speaker 9: Richardson and Knight.

2230
01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:38,320
Speaker 2: Thing in there is Nick Bonito.

2231
01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:43,000
Speaker 9: He takes it to the house the other way on

2232
01:40:43,080 --> 01:40:44,760
Speaker 9: a pick six and the bronc goes.

2233
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:47,879
Speaker 1: Now are up by two scores, twenty three to thirteen.

2234
01:40:47,920 --> 01:40:50,679
Speaker 1: There's also a flag at the eight yard line.

2235
01:40:50,920 --> 01:40:52,479
Speaker 4: Matt Taylor wanted to swear right there.

2236
01:40:53,280 --> 01:40:55,840
Speaker 5: I mean again, I think Kane Psychan is a very

2237
01:40:55,880 --> 01:40:59,200
Speaker 5: good offensive coach, and I would I more or less

2238
01:40:59,200 --> 01:40:59,720
Speaker 5: said this a shap.

2239
01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:04,640
Speaker 3: What does Nick Benito get his massive extension without that play.

2240
01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:06,840
Speaker 5: Didn't do like the Marshawn lynching of the end zone

2241
01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:08,320
Speaker 5: he did, he got fined for that.

2242
01:41:09,720 --> 01:41:12,440
Speaker 1: If you watch Nick Benito play, he can just flat.

2243
01:41:12,400 --> 01:41:13,440
Speaker 2: Rush the quarterback.

2244
01:41:13,640 --> 01:41:15,920
Speaker 5: This is a dangerous one here from Fitch going back

2245
01:41:15,920 --> 01:41:19,960
Speaker 5: to the Pacers. Here he goes you think Pacers fans

2246
01:41:20,479 --> 01:41:22,960
Speaker 5: would rather have the Pacers sneak into the playing game

2247
01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:29,600
Speaker 5: seven eight seed or get a top ten pick. Oh

2248
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:36,400
Speaker 5: tell you what Pacer used to win last and they

2249
01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:37,519
Speaker 5: like the taste of it.

2250
01:41:39,080 --> 01:41:42,479
Speaker 9: But it's never been the Pacers mo though if you

2251
01:41:42,520 --> 01:41:45,719
Speaker 9: look at the house, it's definitely never been the PACER's

2252
01:41:45,800 --> 01:41:49,800
Speaker 9: Momo hardly ever really, But if you're going to restart

2253
01:41:50,040 --> 01:41:52,960
Speaker 9: the old Halliburton window at age twenty seven to thirty two,

2254
01:41:54,400 --> 01:41:57,120
Speaker 9: top ten pick might look pretty good, right, it.

2255
01:41:57,040 --> 01:41:59,600
Speaker 3: Would, But I'll have to lean towards them getting to

2256
01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:01,519
Speaker 3: the playof I think when you build a culture like

2257
01:42:01,560 --> 01:42:02,760
Speaker 3: you have over the last couple of.

2258
01:42:02,800 --> 01:42:06,080
Speaker 5: Years, and culture is better than players.

2259
01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:09,639
Speaker 3: In this instance, probably because the way I look at.

2260
01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:11,320
Speaker 5: It is culture's always a good word when you're winning,

2261
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:12,479
Speaker 5: and that's.

2262
01:42:12,320 --> 01:42:13,760
Speaker 3: What they're doing. That's my whole point.

2263
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:16,200
Speaker 5: But are you going to keep on winning when Siakam

2264
01:42:16,280 --> 01:42:18,280
Speaker 5: is not in that window and turner for.

2265
01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:19,040
Speaker 3: An upcoming season?

2266
01:42:19,080 --> 01:42:19,240
Speaker 7: I'm not.

2267
01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:21,479
Speaker 3: I don't know about like you know, years down the line,

2268
01:42:21,720 --> 01:42:24,200
Speaker 3: but for this upcoming season, to answer that question, I

2269
01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:26,920
Speaker 3: would I would lean more towards them staking into the

2270
01:42:26,920 --> 01:42:29,840
Speaker 3: playoffs because I just don't see them being in a position

2271
01:42:29,880 --> 01:42:32,599
Speaker 3: where they haven't. I mean, a couple of years ago

2272
01:42:32,640 --> 01:42:34,800
Speaker 3: you won twenty five games, and now you're in a

2273
01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:39,519
Speaker 3: position to show that whatever you've invested in you can

2274
01:42:39,520 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 3: build on that. And again, if you hit on your

2275
01:42:41,200 --> 01:42:43,479
Speaker 3: previous top ten picks, you're not gonna be bad enough

2276
01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:46,080
Speaker 3: to pick top ten again. Anyway, So here's an opportunity

2277
01:42:46,080 --> 01:42:48,320
Speaker 3: to see what you got in Jars Walker and Vinig Mather.

2278
01:42:48,479 --> 01:42:50,920
Speaker 3: And for those of you out there who already know this,

2279
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:54,240
Speaker 3: all of us love top ten picks until they get

2280
01:42:54,280 --> 01:42:56,760
Speaker 3: drafted and they're nothing like it's a crapshoot.

2281
01:42:56,800 --> 01:42:58,240
Speaker 1: Still, seriously, well, you.

2282
01:42:58,479 --> 01:43:00,400
Speaker 3: Want to get like we looked at a statists when

2283
01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:05,519
Speaker 3: I worked to any Starr. Sure it is almost it's

2284
01:43:05,600 --> 01:43:08,160
Speaker 3: very rare for you to get a great player outside

2285
01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:08,920
Speaker 3: of the top five.

2286
01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:11,719
Speaker 5: But again, you don't have to use that pick to draft.

2287
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:14,240
Speaker 5: Can you use that pick and say, hey, this trade

2288
01:43:14,240 --> 01:43:14,920
Speaker 5: package just passed.

2289
01:43:15,360 --> 01:43:15,960
Speaker 3: I see what you do?

2290
01:43:16,040 --> 01:43:20,800
Speaker 5: Okay, just purely that's fair drafting said player there. Again,

2291
01:43:20,840 --> 01:43:23,479
Speaker 5: I get that once you taste the winning you don't

2292
01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:26,200
Speaker 5: want to go back. Nobody wants to go back, but

2293
01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:29,600
Speaker 5: it is one little step back. Do you reap the

2294
01:43:29,640 --> 01:43:31,719
Speaker 5: benefits down the road?

2295
01:43:32,479 --> 01:43:35,400
Speaker 4: Interesting, especially when your expectations heading into this season are

2296
01:43:35,439 --> 01:43:36,840
Speaker 4: kind of like, well, because.

2297
01:43:36,560 --> 01:43:39,280
Speaker 5: What is sober under market is like thirty nine I

2298
01:43:39,320 --> 01:43:39,640
Speaker 5: think so?

2299
01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:42,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, because if you bet fifty or over wins like

2300
01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:46,160
Speaker 4: Jeff is considering, it's plus nine eight for the Pacers.

2301
01:43:46,240 --> 01:43:47,560
Speaker 4: Let me look at maybe.

2302
01:43:47,280 --> 01:43:49,559
Speaker 1: More precise when I say forty five to fifty from now.

2303
01:43:49,640 --> 01:43:50,719
Speaker 1: But okay, I'll stick.

2304
01:43:50,600 --> 01:43:51,800
Speaker 2: With fifty again.

2305
01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:53,640
Speaker 5: This is a bigger topic. We don't probably need to

2306
01:43:53,680 --> 01:43:56,080
Speaker 5: hit on it any longer. But I do think it's

2307
01:43:56,080 --> 01:43:58,439
Speaker 5: a conversation obviously. Internally, I don't think the Pacers are

2308
01:43:58,439 --> 01:44:01,680
Speaker 5: looking at it in that light at all, but I

2309
01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:02,760
Speaker 5: think it's a fair thing to bring up.

2310
01:44:02,840 --> 01:44:06,439
Speaker 3: Vandel has the Pacers at thirty seven and a half lower.

2311
01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:07,200
Speaker 1: Pound that over.

2312
01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would hammer that over.

2313
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:09,600
Speaker 1: You.

2314
01:44:09,640 --> 01:44:12,000
Speaker 5: Imagine a thirty four win Pacer team or something like that.

2315
01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:14,160
Speaker 2: I'd be stunned.

2316
01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:17,439
Speaker 4: Here's your top ten pick. If you go forty for them,

2317
01:44:17,479 --> 01:44:20,800
Speaker 4: it's plus one forty five. If you go forty five

2318
01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:24,400
Speaker 4: wins for them, it's plus three seventy.

2319
01:44:24,560 --> 01:44:27,400
Speaker 5: So that's ten dollars to win thirty seven. For our

2320
01:44:27,439 --> 01:44:28,800
Speaker 5: non gamblers out there, we're.

2321
01:44:28,680 --> 01:44:31,240
Speaker 4: Gonna need a Kevin's bet for the season.

2322
01:44:31,680 --> 01:44:32,160
Speaker 5: I believe.

2323
01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2324
01:44:33,120 --> 01:44:35,040
Speaker 5: I was gonna say three years running. This would be

2325
01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:37,160
Speaker 5: year four. We have hit on the Pacers bet.

2326
01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:39,640
Speaker 10: All right, let's hut a kid on the way. You

01:45:26,240 --> 01:45:29,120
Speaker 5: Cartle apartment. Yeah, yeah, what I'd be doing there?

2342
01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:31,840
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the Indiana fever. They finished

2343
01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:34,000
Speaker 1: off their regular season last night at home with a

2344
01:45:34,120 --> 01:45:37,280
Speaker 1: victory over the Minnesota Lynx eighty three seventy two Links,

2345
01:45:37,280 --> 01:45:40,559
Speaker 1: playing without an Fisia caller. But twenty four and twenty

2346
01:45:41,040 --> 01:45:43,640
Speaker 1: I get that there are a lot more games played.

2347
01:45:43,400 --> 01:45:45,320
Speaker 2: Now, but that is a franchise record for wins in

2348
01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:45,639
Speaker 2: the season.

2349
01:45:45,720 --> 01:45:46,200
Speaker 1: You'll take that.

2350
01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:48,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, back to back playoff appearances for the first time

2351
01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:51,880
Speaker 3: since the days of Tamika catchings. So shout out to

2352
01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:54,759
Speaker 3: the fever for getting that done, especially when we all

2353
01:45:54,800 --> 01:45:56,960
Speaker 3: know Kaylin Clark has been out for most of the

2354
01:45:57,040 --> 01:46:00,000
Speaker 3: year will not play again this season. So it's basically,

2355
01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:01,920
Speaker 3: can you go on there and you know, have a

2356
01:46:01,920 --> 01:46:03,200
Speaker 3: little David and Goliath moment.

2357
01:46:03,280 --> 01:46:05,400
Speaker 1: In the first round of the playoffs, Kelsey Mitchell led

2358
01:46:05,400 --> 01:46:08,040
Speaker 1: the team with eighteen points. Obtusey Sims had fifteen Lee

2359
01:46:08,120 --> 01:46:11,120
Speaker 1: of Boston twelve points and eight rebounds. And they'll just

2360
01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:13,400
Speaker 1: wait to see who they will play on Sunday and

2361
01:46:13,439 --> 01:46:17,160
Speaker 1: at what time on Sunday. We'll keep our ears peeled

2362
01:46:17,160 --> 01:46:20,600
Speaker 1: for that. Meanwhile, the Chicago Cubs, they win against the

2363
01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:22,760
Speaker 1: Atlanta Braves last night by a score of six to one,

2364
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:24,360
Speaker 1: and they can't win with Mark because if they beat

2365
01:46:24,400 --> 01:46:26,160
Speaker 1: the Braves, He's like, well, yeah they're.

2366
01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:28,439
Speaker 4: Supposed to, Yeah they should. The Braves stink this here

Speaker 4: as Derek and our YouTube chat, who's a diehard Braves fan.

2368
01:46:31,600 --> 01:46:33,599
Speaker 4: He cannot get enough of that team. He can't wait

2369
01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:34,479
Speaker 4: for the season to be over.

2370
01:46:34,880 --> 01:46:37,320
Speaker 1: Reds beat the Podres late last night, four to two

2371
01:46:37,360 --> 01:46:40,200
Speaker 1: was the final score there. The Mariners at home over

2372
01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:43,160

2388
01:47:22,680 --> 01:47:25,920
Speaker 1: guys been giving my wife and I grief about, you know,

2389
01:47:26,080 --> 01:47:30,880
Speaker 1: hosting a college team. Two years ago was the men

2390
01:47:31,800 --> 01:47:34,240
Speaker 1: of the cycling team of my alma mater out in Colorado,

2391
01:47:34,280 --> 01:47:37,760
Speaker 1: and now this year the men are staying at an

2392
01:47:37,760 --> 01:47:40,000
Speaker 1: AIRBNBN we're hosting the women, and you guys have been

2393
01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:41,000
Speaker 1: giving us grief about that.

2394
01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:44,360
Speaker 3: Yeah. So my question, my other question I forgot to

2395
01:47:44,400 --> 01:47:48,879
Speaker 3: ask yesterday was so when they offer you which gender

2396
01:47:48,920 --> 01:47:51,240
Speaker 3: do you have a say? No, that's all decided by

2397
01:47:51,280 --> 01:47:53,080
Speaker 3: the coach. H. I know you always got to say though,

2398
01:47:53,080 --> 01:47:54,760
Speaker 3: you mean you could have said, oh, you know what,

2399
01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:56,000
Speaker 3: just bring the man back over.

2400
01:47:56,240 --> 01:47:56,679
Speaker 2: That was fun.

2401
01:47:56,680 --> 01:47:58,040
Speaker 3: And then where does the coach day? Is the coach

2402
01:47:58,040 --> 01:48:00,320
Speaker 3: of man or a woman? Coach is a man and

2403
01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:03,080
Speaker 3: he stays where he is staying with the guys. So

2404
01:48:03,479 --> 01:48:05,040
Speaker 3: so last year did he stay at the house as

2405
01:48:05,080 --> 01:48:05,679
Speaker 3: well as the coach?

2406
01:48:06,040 --> 01:48:06,120
Speaker 6: Uh?

2407
01:48:06,280 --> 01:48:09,120
Speaker 1: He stayed with the guys with us last Okay, all right.

2408
01:48:09,120 --> 01:48:11,160
Speaker 3: So the coach it goes where the guys go. So

2409
01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:13,000
Speaker 3: maybe he just wanted to be in a hotel.

2410
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:14,080
Speaker 5: I don't know.

2411
01:48:14,280 --> 01:48:14,879
Speaker 3: I'm skeptical.

2412
01:48:14,960 --> 01:48:17,920
Speaker 1: But we enjoy, we enjoy having the energy and the

2413
01:48:17,920 --> 01:48:20,080
Speaker 1: the athletes in the house. We have a good time.

2414
01:48:20,120 --> 01:48:22,360
Speaker 2: And like I said, they kind of do their own thing.

2415
01:48:22,479 --> 01:48:24,599
Speaker 1: Like last night, I was running Grant around and Jake

2416
01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:27,000
Speaker 1: was doing homework. I got home, they were cooking dinner

2417
01:48:27,040 --> 01:48:30,760
Speaker 1: for themselves and having a little little dinner time around

2418
01:48:30,840 --> 01:48:32,920
Speaker 1: the table, and everybody else is kind of doing their thing.

2419
01:48:32,960 --> 01:48:34,840
Speaker 3: And so you don't you just don't interact at all

2420
01:48:35,080 --> 01:48:38,080
Speaker 3: like you do interact. So did you get some dinner.

2421
01:48:38,000 --> 01:48:38,759
Speaker 2: Well, I got some dinner.

2422
01:48:38,840 --> 01:48:40,599
Speaker 1: I didn't want to crash their food.

2423
01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:41,160
Speaker 6: You know.

2424
01:48:43,520 --> 01:48:44,000
Speaker 2: Me a little bit.

2425
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:46,000
Speaker 1: You can make me a side plate first night.

2426
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:48,360
Speaker 2: You just want them to get comfortable, you know. So, yes,

2427
01:48:48,439 --> 01:48:49,160
Speaker 2: we welcome them.

2428
01:48:49,479 --> 01:48:51,880
Speaker 1: Everybody showed him more everything he's at, and then we

2429
01:48:51,880 --> 01:48:54,120
Speaker 1: were there talking to him. Wasn't like we shunned them

2430
01:48:54,200 --> 01:48:54,639
Speaker 1: or anything.

2431
01:48:54,880 --> 01:48:56,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. You definitely didn't shun him. You

2432
01:48:56,600 --> 01:48:58,200
Speaker 3: over your doors to him. I just figured, you know,

2433
01:48:58,240 --> 01:49:00,800
Speaker 3: you said on brig Bray, you know an airbnb with

2434
01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:03,040
Speaker 3: the with the homeowners still there, that.

2435
01:49:03,080 --> 01:49:05,320
Speaker 1: Would be there will definitely be a backyard barbecue, be

2436
01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:06,200
Speaker 1: stol the week is over.

2437
01:49:06,439 --> 01:49:08,880
Speaker 5: My thing is you imagine that the airbnb with the

2438
01:49:08,880 --> 01:49:09,679
Speaker 5: owners still How.

2439
01:49:09,560 --> 01:49:11,880
Speaker 4: Does the shower situation work, because that's a lot of

2440
01:49:12,240 --> 01:49:13,639
Speaker 4: there they got to get ready.

2441
01:49:14,520 --> 01:49:16,439
Speaker 1: How it was just run all day? Well, first of all,

2442
01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:18,439
Speaker 1: it only ended up being six women this year.

2443
01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:20,880
Speaker 4: That's still a lot of people running through the shower.

2444
01:49:20,680 --> 01:49:21,800
Speaker 2: In the hot water.

2445
01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:24,640
Speaker 1: There's there's two showers for them to figure out how

2446
01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:26,479
Speaker 1: to work with, so they'll be okay.

2447
01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:29,000
Speaker 3: You're telling Jake and Grant, hey, you better get your

2448

Speaker 1: Kevin is being very, very just wise and staying out

2502
01:51:28,000 --> 01:51:29,519
Speaker 1: of this whole conversation.

2503
01:51:30,600 --> 01:51:32,599
Speaker 5: Probably set this one out. But I hope it goes

2504
01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:34,200
Speaker 5: well for them. Hope it goes well for you.

2505
01:51:34,320 --> 01:51:35,840
Speaker 2: It's been it's gone well in the past.

2506
01:51:35,880 --> 01:51:38,559
Speaker 1: They're great kids, they're good students. It's a lot of fun.

2507
01:51:38,560 --> 01:51:41,559
Speaker 1: They have great personalities. They're first of all, they're focused

2508
01:51:41,560 --> 01:51:43,960
Speaker 1: on what they're here to do. James, you forget that.

2509
01:51:44,439 --> 01:51:49,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, focus is necessary. I'm just saying, all on, there's

2510
01:51:49,160 --> 01:51:52,360
Speaker 3: no way enough homeworks. Letna walk past my kitchen. What

2511
01:51:52,800 --> 01:51:55,120
Speaker 3: in there? Male and female for that matter, But yeah,

2512
01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:57,400
Speaker 3: I got to kick out of that. And Jeff we

2513
01:51:57,560 --> 01:51:57,880
Speaker 3: enjoy it.

2514
01:51:58,320 --> 01:52:00,600
Speaker 4: Put a bucket of popcorn on. Say, anybody want to

2515
01:52:00,600 --> 01:52:03,680
Speaker 4: watch a scary movie, and you're golden, let's do it.

2516
01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:05,840
Speaker 3: Eight thirty is not too late, right.

2517
01:52:05,600 --> 01:52:07,160
Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure they were exhausted too.

2518
01:52:07,200 --> 01:52:09,160
Speaker 1: They get they get into town at like nothing two

2519
01:52:09,200 --> 01:52:11,439
Speaker 1: o'clock in the afternoon, go straight to the track and

2520
01:52:11,439 --> 01:52:12,439
Speaker 1: and work out for two.

2521
01:52:12,320 --> 01:52:14,320
Speaker 4: It's turning on a movie. It's a great way to

2522
01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:16,080
Speaker 4: relax and unlined after a long day.

2523
01:52:16,280 --> 01:52:18,040
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to provide him a nice place and

2524
01:52:18,040 --> 01:52:19,519
Speaker 1: stay out of the way. That's all I'm trying.

2525
01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:21,479
Speaker 2: Is that wrong?

2526
01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:23,680
Speaker 3: Sorority House said, Jeff's is what just got dropped in

2527
01:52:23,720 --> 01:52:24,400
Speaker 3: the hip.

2528
01:52:24,640 --> 01:52:27,759
Speaker 1: So it's a fan morning show with kb JB, Jeff

2529
01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:30,439
Speaker 1: and Mark Dyketon and the Colts will be taken on

2530
01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:33,639
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos Sunday afternoon. And I guess we've all

2531
01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:36,400
Speaker 1: moved past the Miami game, But how do they keep

2532
01:52:36,479 --> 01:52:39,160
Speaker 1: Kevin that that momentum going from the Miami game.

2533
01:52:39,000 --> 01:52:40,919
Speaker 2: Against a completely different defense.

2534
01:52:43,320 --> 01:52:44,799
Speaker 5: Sorry, I got a little rattle there.

2535
01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mark, Mark will let it go.

2536
01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:49,479
Speaker 5: A little pump fake there, just clipping something out.

2537
01:52:49,680 --> 01:52:50,280
Speaker 1: Huh uh huh.

2538
01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:52,320
Speaker 5: You know, we talked a little bit about it in

2539
01:52:52,320 --> 01:52:55,519
Speaker 5: the seven o'clock hour of betting on Daniel Jones to

2540
01:52:55,520 --> 01:52:58,479
Speaker 5: be a constant or being consistent. It's probably unfair given

2541
01:52:58,920 --> 01:53:01,320
Speaker 5: the resume that he has had. It's not a resume

2542
01:53:01,400 --> 01:53:05,479
Speaker 5: filled with consistency or you know, positive constant plays. But

2543
01:53:06,640 --> 01:53:08,640
Speaker 5: you know what about the offensive line. If all of

2544
01:53:08,640 --> 01:53:11,840
Speaker 5: a sudden, your offensive line, which has history of being

2545
01:53:11,920 --> 01:53:16,080
Speaker 5: very good, if that's a unit that can be pretty consistent,

2546
01:53:16,160 --> 01:53:18,599
Speaker 5: then does that impact Daniel Jones in a positive element.

2547
01:53:18,680 --> 01:53:20,360
Speaker 5: I mean, that is an area where I do think

2548
01:53:20,400 --> 01:53:23,800
Speaker 5: you can have some optimism. But obviously Denver's defense is

2549
01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:29,599
Speaker 5: a much different storyline than what Miami has been here

2550
01:53:29,720 --> 01:53:34,960
Speaker 5: and certainly showed there in Week one. So when pockets

2551
01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:39,040
Speaker 5: get muddier, when you get behind the chains, how does

2552
01:53:39,120 --> 01:53:41,960
Speaker 5: Daniel Jones react to it? And those I think are

2553
01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:44,559
Speaker 5: going to be some of the bigger questions that you

2554
01:53:44,680 --> 01:53:48,639
Speaker 5: have of like a play, for example, that you saw

2555
01:53:48,720 --> 01:53:52,759
Speaker 5: on Sunday where you know Jones scrambled on that opening

2556
01:53:52,880 --> 01:53:55,960
Speaker 5: drive when he got laid out by Matthew Judon. You

2557
01:53:55,960 --> 01:53:58,680
Speaker 5: know some quarterbacks in that league, in the league, they

2558
01:53:58,680 --> 01:54:02,120
Speaker 5: are going to some elite quarterbacks you should say, are

2559
01:54:02,160 --> 01:54:04,680
Speaker 5: going to find the end zone there, are going to

2560
01:54:05,040 --> 01:54:07,559
Speaker 5: make a play. Oh wow, here I am backyard football.

2561
01:54:07,920 --> 01:54:10,120
Speaker 5: That's where I'm going to excel. If Jones gets put

2562
01:54:10,160 --> 01:54:12,759
Speaker 5: into more of those situations, does he make those plays

2563
01:54:13,960 --> 01:54:15,479
Speaker 5: that those would be some of the questions I'd have

2564
01:54:15,520 --> 01:54:15,960
Speaker 5: going forward.

2565
01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:18,479
Speaker 1: One thing I do think is worth noting that you

2566
01:54:18,560 --> 01:54:20,759
Speaker 1: go back to that game that Denver and the Colts

2567
01:54:20,760 --> 01:54:23,559
Speaker 1: played last year, and despite the play that we pointed

2568
01:54:23,600 --> 01:54:26,599
Speaker 1: out and how it all went down, Colts offensive line again,

2569
01:54:26,720 --> 01:54:28,839
Speaker 1: Denver led the league in sacks last year. Colts offensive

2570
01:54:28,880 --> 01:54:30,920
Speaker 1: line held up pretty decently in that game.

2571
01:54:31,320 --> 01:54:35,200
Speaker 3: Yeah they did. And so again you're gonna get a

2572
01:54:35,320 --> 01:54:40,520
Speaker 3: greater test, and I certainly think that it probably I

2573
01:54:40,520 --> 01:54:42,000
Speaker 3: didn't even want to call it easy, because I can't

2574
01:54:42,000 --> 01:54:43,800
Speaker 3: say a win as easy. When you dominate like that,

2575
01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:45,760
Speaker 3: you play very well, it looks easy for us, But

2576
01:54:45,840 --> 01:54:48,000
Speaker 3: to execute like that, it takes a great amount of

2577
01:54:48,320 --> 01:54:52,680
Speaker 3: skill and focus. But a bigger test is coming, and

2578
01:54:53,440 --> 01:54:56,200
Speaker 3: I just don't think that Vance Joseph is gonna, you know,

2579
01:54:56,320 --> 01:54:59,000
Speaker 3: be as vanilla as I saw some of those Dolphins

2580
01:54:59,080 --> 01:55:03,320
Speaker 3: defensive looks, you know, look like post snap for Daniel Jones.

2581
01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:05,680
Speaker 3: And so I have a piece of actually just came

2582
01:55:05,720 --> 01:55:07,720
Speaker 3: out on the Athletic Please check it out for me.

2583
01:55:07,880 --> 01:55:11,240
Speaker 3: But in it, the way I kind of framed it

2584
01:55:11,280 --> 01:55:14,640
Speaker 3: towards the end is the fact that your how do

2585
01:55:14,680 --> 01:55:19,680
Speaker 3: I say this, You've injected optimism into a franchise that

2586
01:55:19,760 --> 01:55:22,280
Speaker 3: hasn't had much of that in recent years, or at

2587
01:55:22,360 --> 01:55:24,920
Speaker 3: least they haven't been able to sustain it. And that's

2588
01:55:24,960 --> 01:55:26,720
Speaker 3: the challenge. It's like, do you go back to being

2589
01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:28,360
Speaker 3: the same old Colton I'm not saying if you lose

2590
01:55:28,640 --> 01:55:30,320
Speaker 3: in week two, we're going to be writing your off.

2591
01:55:30,440 --> 01:55:33,360
Speaker 3: But that is the question, how much can you build

2592
01:55:33,400 --> 01:55:36,440
Speaker 3: on this because you have, you know, kind of earned

2593
01:55:36,440 --> 01:55:39,000
Speaker 3: some goodwill after such a great performance in Week one.

2594
01:55:40,360 --> 01:55:42,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, final score in that game last year ended up

2595
01:55:42,600 --> 01:55:46,280
Speaker 1: being thirty one to thirteen. And I'm just looking how

2596
01:55:46,320 --> 01:55:50,880
Speaker 1: the running game held up for the Colts in that

2597
01:55:50,920 --> 01:55:52,600
Speaker 1: game off top of your head, do you remember.

2598
01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:54,080
Speaker 5: I thought Taylor had a PTT good day until he

2599
01:55:54,120 --> 01:55:54,680
Speaker 5: dropped the ball.

2600
01:55:55,080 --> 01:55:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that changed everything.

2601
01:55:56,560 --> 01:55:59,240
Speaker 1: I mean it rapped for one hundred and seven yards

2602
01:55:59,240 --> 01:56:01,120
Speaker 1: I think, right, I said out in all seriousness, Yeah,

2603
01:56:01,120 --> 01:56:03,360
Speaker 1: I mean again blown out, but they would have been

2604
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:05,000
Speaker 1: blowing them out to.

2605
01:56:05,000 --> 01:56:07,280
Speaker 5: Go up twenty to seven, and then they scored twenty

2606
01:56:07,320 --> 01:56:08,480
Speaker 5: four on the answer the rest of way. They had

2607
01:56:08,480 --> 01:56:11,440
Speaker 5: a big punt return of that game as well from memes.

2608
01:56:12,600 --> 01:56:13,400
Speaker 2: So you know that.

2609
01:56:14,920 --> 01:56:16,880
Speaker 5: Exit one of his worst games up pro really in

2610
01:56:17,040 --> 01:56:19,200
Speaker 5: the Colts. So I want to say Gus Bradley's boys

2611
01:56:19,200 --> 01:56:21,720
Speaker 5: picked him off three times in that game. So and

2612
01:56:21,760 --> 01:56:25,400
Speaker 5: again Nicks did see ana Arumo and Cincinnati. I want

2613
01:56:25,400 --> 01:56:26,840
Speaker 5: to say, maybe even the very next week or a

2614
01:56:26,840 --> 01:56:30,640
Speaker 5: couple weeks later. So just some aspects to this game

2615
01:56:30,760 --> 01:56:33,800
Speaker 5: to definitely watch out for. But you know, the Colts

2616
01:56:33,800 --> 01:56:37,680
Speaker 5: played really good football for a big chunk of that game.

2617
01:56:37,720 --> 01:56:41,400
Speaker 5: I think that's what makes that loss so frustrating because

2618
01:56:41,440 --> 01:56:45,120
Speaker 5: of everything I was at stake on the road easily

2619
01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:46,920
Speaker 5: one of the biggest Colts games in the past x

2620
01:56:46,960 --> 01:56:49,360
Speaker 5: amount of years. You had it sitting on a platter,

2621
01:56:49,360 --> 01:56:52,120
Speaker 5: and then once Taylor dropped that ball, it was over.

2622
01:56:52,440 --> 01:56:54,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, they surrendered two sacks. The Colts did in that

2623
01:56:54,800 --> 01:56:59,120
Speaker 1: game five tackles for loss, so they weren't overwhelmed. And

2624
01:56:59,200 --> 01:57:02,560
Speaker 1: like you said, everything changed on one play. So you

2625
01:57:02,600 --> 01:57:04,600
Speaker 1: just got to stay away from that. Uh more on

2626
01:57:04,640 --> 01:57:06,280
Speaker 1: the rest of the NFL, and we'll close down the

2627
01:57:06,280 --> 01:57:08,000
Speaker 1: show in a moment. Here get some of your texts

2628
01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:10,320
Speaker 1: at two three nine seventy it's the Fan Morning Show.

2629
01:57:10,320 --> 01:57:12,120
Speaker 1: At ninety three five and one seven five the fan

2630
01:57:13,400 --> 01:57:20,320
Speaker 1: from left the right, Uh, bind me quanky?

2631
01:57:20,400 --> 01:57:20,720
Speaker 8: Why me?

2632
01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:24,080
Speaker 2: By mean Superman Mark.

2633
01:57:24,120 --> 01:57:26,120
Speaker 1: That's the first time you've gotten JB out of his

2634
01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:26,720
Speaker 1: seat today.

2635
01:57:27,720 --> 01:57:29,480
Speaker 4: He's got the dance down still still.

2636
01:57:29,480 --> 01:57:32,920
Speaker 10: Remember you know.

2637
01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:34,640
Speaker 5: When I was starting the lawnmower in training camp.

2638
01:57:34,800 --> 01:57:40,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, uh and then he did the young Jacques too nice.

2639
01:57:41,880 --> 01:57:44,840
Speaker 1: It's the fan morning show with the aforementioned James Boyd,

2640
01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:47,800
Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen, Mark Dyke in there that Mark twos Uh.

2641
01:57:47,920 --> 01:57:50,000
Speaker 1: The Fever finished up their season last night. They got

2642
01:57:50,040 --> 01:57:52,080
Speaker 1: to win over the Minnesota Lynks twenty four to twenty.

2643
01:57:52,120 --> 01:57:54,400
Speaker 1: We got a text earlier today that I didn't want

2644
01:57:54,400 --> 01:57:56,360
Speaker 1: to point out before the show is over, Kevin, and

2645
01:57:56,360 --> 01:57:59,280
Speaker 1: you responded to it. It starts out, Hello, my name

2646
01:57:59,320 --> 01:58:01,480
Speaker 1: is Jeff. I wanted to comment on the Fever game

2647
01:58:01,600 --> 01:58:03,560
Speaker 1: last night and the great fans of the team as

2648
01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:05,720
Speaker 1: well as the people who were working for the organization.

2649
01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:08,360
Speaker 1: Jeff says he took his daughter and her friend last

2650
01:58:08,440 --> 01:58:10,480
Speaker 1: night and sat in a section with fans that were

2651
01:58:10,520 --> 01:58:13,560
Speaker 1: probably a little bit older. People made sure to hand

2652
01:58:13,600 --> 01:58:18,120
Speaker 1: them foam fingers, posters, many basketballs. The ushers were bringing

2653
01:58:18,160 --> 01:58:21,160
Speaker 1: extra noise sticks to kids in our section. Pretty sure

2654
01:58:21,200 --> 01:58:23,800
Speaker 1: every kid that sat around us went home with something

2655
01:58:24,200 --> 01:58:26,520
Speaker 1: that another fan had given them to make sure that

2656
01:58:26,560 --> 01:58:29,280
Speaker 1: they had a good experience with everything that people saw

2657
01:58:29,320 --> 01:58:31,800
Speaker 1: this week with the Philly Karen taking the ball away

2658
01:58:31,800 --> 01:58:34,000
Speaker 1: from a little kid there, it was awesome to be

2659
01:58:34,040 --> 01:58:36,360
Speaker 1: able to take the kids out have fun, make sure

2660
01:58:36,400 --> 01:58:39,880
Speaker 1: good people made sure they went home super happy. We

2661
01:58:39,960 --> 01:58:42,200
Speaker 1: do have a great community of people here in India

2662
01:58:42,720 --> 01:58:44,280
Speaker 1: know how to set by example.

2663
01:58:44,520 --> 01:58:47,640
Speaker 5: That's awesome to hear. I'd like to say, no surprise.

2664
01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:51,800
Speaker 5: I mean my experiences at sporting events, not just fever,

2665
01:58:51,920 --> 01:58:54,000
Speaker 5: whether it's going to an Indians game, going to a

2666
01:58:54,040 --> 01:58:59,040
Speaker 5: Butler game, anything local, great, great time. So that's and

2667
01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:02,200
Speaker 5: I think it's cool just for fan appreciation night, for

2668
01:59:03,040 --> 01:59:05,360
Speaker 5: the end the season on a win, and now your

2669
01:59:05,360 --> 01:59:07,160
Speaker 5: first home playoff game since what sixteen?

2670
01:59:07,240 --> 01:59:07,680
Speaker 2: Is that right?

2671
01:59:08,040 --> 01:59:09,920
Speaker 3: I believe so yes, because that was the last time

2672
01:59:09,960 --> 01:59:12,760
Speaker 3: they made it prior to last year with Tamika Kutchings.

2673
01:59:12,960 --> 01:59:14,520
Speaker 5: And look, I mean if they win. You know the

2674
01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:17,440
Speaker 5: weird thing about these three game series, I find it

2675
01:59:17,840 --> 01:59:21,120
Speaker 5: all the pressure is on the better seed right away.

2676
01:59:21,320 --> 01:59:23,680
Speaker 5: Like if it's a five or seven, you can play

2677
01:59:23,760 --> 01:59:26,600
Speaker 5: with a little bit of fire. With three, you can't

2678
01:59:26,600 --> 01:59:29,360
Speaker 5: play with any fire. No, if you lose that first game,

2679
01:59:29,440 --> 01:59:32,800
Speaker 5: now your season could be over in game two on

2680
01:59:32,840 --> 01:59:33,280
Speaker 5: the road.

2681
01:59:33,920 --> 01:59:36,000
Speaker 3: That's a big difference this year is because last year

2682
01:59:37,800 --> 01:59:40,200
Speaker 3: it's like, yeah, if you drop one at home, potentially

2683
01:59:40,880 --> 01:59:43,000
Speaker 3: you can bounce back on your home court before going

2684
01:59:43,320 --> 01:59:45,560
Speaker 3: to a hostile game three. But yeah, to your point, Kevin,

2685
01:59:45,800 --> 01:59:47,960
Speaker 3: it is now the one to one one series where

2686
01:59:48,000 --> 01:59:50,560
Speaker 3: you're on the road to start as a lower seat.

2687
01:59:50,600 --> 01:59:53,040
Speaker 3: You're guaranteed a home game in that second game, and

2688
01:59:53,080 --> 01:59:54,400
Speaker 3: then you go on the road again if you force

2689
01:59:54,440 --> 01:59:57,720
Speaker 3: a game three, which in our world of sports is

2690
01:59:58,080 --> 01:59:59,400
Speaker 3: the equivalent of a game seven.

2691
01:59:59,480 --> 02:00:01,960
Speaker 5: So no idea what the WNBA is doing and starting

2692
02:00:02,000 --> 02:00:05,040
Speaker 5: their playoffs on a Sunday. Do they realize the NFL

2693
02:00:05,120 --> 02:00:05,640
Speaker 5: is playing.

2694
02:00:07,880 --> 02:00:10,400
Speaker 2: Brother But the NBA is leaned into that.

2695
02:00:10,520 --> 02:00:13,480
Speaker 1: Even in their league of recent years, they never used

2696
02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:15,200
Speaker 1: to play on Sunday afternoons.

2697
02:00:15,200 --> 02:00:18,680
Speaker 5: Now everybody the NBA will not starting their playoffs on

2698
02:00:18,720 --> 02:00:22,240
Speaker 5: an NFL Sunday. You don't touch NFL s, you say,

2699
02:00:22,280 --> 02:00:24,160
Speaker 5: as far away from NFL Sundays.

2700
02:00:23,800 --> 02:00:24,160
Speaker 1: As you can.

2701
02:00:24,520 --> 02:00:26,920
Speaker 3: A thousand percent agree, No, go Monday.

2702
02:00:26,920 --> 02:00:28,800
Speaker 5: We're the only opposite one game exactly.

2703
02:00:28,840 --> 02:00:32,200
Speaker 3: And I get it. I mean you are. I want

2704
02:00:32,240 --> 02:00:34,000
Speaker 3: to get your schedule together, you want to keep these

2705
02:00:34,000 --> 02:00:35,040
Speaker 3: women playing.

2706
02:00:34,760 --> 02:00:36,400
Speaker 5: But Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

2707
02:00:36,520 --> 02:00:38,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't understand that at all, Like one more

2708
02:00:38,640 --> 02:00:40,840
Speaker 3: day wouldn't hurt you, especially because you're going up against

2709
02:00:40,840 --> 02:00:41,360
Speaker 3: a juggernaut.

2710
02:00:41,400 --> 02:00:43,280
Speaker 4: As we know, you're gonna get lost in the news cycle.

2711
02:00:43,360 --> 02:00:47,680
Speaker 5: Ye, you're not gonna get a minute of that playoff game,

2712
02:00:48,040 --> 02:00:50,920
Speaker 5: which is disappointing out Tuesday when they're back at home. Yeah,

2713
02:00:50,960 --> 02:00:52,680
Speaker 5: obviously that helps out greatly.

2714
02:00:52,720 --> 02:00:53,680
Speaker 3: It's a very good point you made.

2715
02:00:54,400 --> 02:00:56,760
Speaker 1: J points out pacers, keep the foot on the gas

2716
02:00:56,760 --> 02:00:59,000
Speaker 1: even if you're down a cylinder. Front office has gained

2717
02:00:59,000 --> 02:00:59,480
Speaker 1: his trust.

2718
02:01:01,120 --> 02:01:03,640
Speaker 3: Okay, does he have a win prediction? I was asking

2719
02:01:03,680 --> 02:01:06,280
Speaker 3: the YouTube chat and we got a couple of thirty

2720
02:01:06,360 --> 02:01:11,200
Speaker 3: nine's in there, forty two slightly above five hundred. I

2721
02:01:11,400 --> 02:01:13,720
Speaker 3: think I might go forty. I think because ty Reese

2722
02:01:13,760 --> 02:01:15,680
Speaker 3: is good enough to be fifty wins, not fifty wins,

2723
02:01:15,720 --> 02:01:19,760
Speaker 3: but ten wins by himself. But I am curious. I

2724
02:01:19,800 --> 02:01:21,960
Speaker 3: don't think this team will lay down and get the

2725
02:01:22,000 --> 02:01:25,120
Speaker 3: top ten pick, so to speak, Kevin. But you know,

2726
02:01:25,200 --> 02:01:27,160
Speaker 3: strange things that happens. We'll see.

2727
02:01:28,680 --> 02:01:28,840
Speaker 1: No.

2728
02:01:29,440 --> 02:01:32,240
Speaker 3: I think if they say healthy, they gotta be better

2729
02:01:32,280 --> 02:01:33,480
Speaker 3: than a top ten pick.

2730
02:01:33,640 --> 02:01:35,520
Speaker 5: I mean, thirty seven and a half just seems so.

2731
02:01:35,600 --> 02:01:36,880
Speaker 3: I'm hammle to.

2732
02:01:37,320 --> 02:01:38,800
Speaker 5: I mean, I know, we got a couple of questions.

2733
02:01:39,000 --> 02:01:41,440
Speaker 5: James kind of putting a bow tie on the JT

2734
02:01:41,680 --> 02:01:45,240
Speaker 5: two Imloau discussion again. Second round pick last year out

2735
02:01:45,240 --> 02:01:47,280
Speaker 5: of Ohio State for the Colts. He was a healthy

2736
02:01:47,480 --> 02:01:52,120
Speaker 5: and active on Sunday. Basically, the Colts opted for more

2737
02:01:52,160 --> 02:01:56,640
Speaker 5: defensive tackles than defensive ends. So right now JT not

2738
02:01:56,840 --> 02:02:00,880
Speaker 5: one of the four defensive ends. They're dress Quitty, pay

2739
02:02:00,880 --> 02:02:04,720
Speaker 5: a lot to la to Taekwon, Lewis Sampson epicom based

2740
02:02:04,720 --> 02:02:07,040
Speaker 5: off what Loui an Arumo said yesterday, though you know

2741
02:02:07,080 --> 02:02:10,000
Speaker 5: there's been instances James, where we've seen rookies be inactive

2742
02:02:10,760 --> 02:02:14,080
Speaker 5: and the coach or coordinators say, yes, we need more

2743
02:02:14,080 --> 02:02:16,560
Speaker 5: from that player. I did not get that vibe from

2744
02:02:16,640 --> 02:02:21,160
Speaker 5: Leuiannarumo yesterday. Yes, ideally he'd probably be dressing over a

2745
02:02:21,400 --> 02:02:23,520
Speaker 5: you know, epicom coming off of torn Achilles. But I

2746
02:02:23,560 --> 02:02:25,960
Speaker 5: think the Colts really really liked their depth there and

2747
02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:29,200
Speaker 5: they don't look at this as you know, a negative

2748
02:02:29,440 --> 02:02:30,680
Speaker 5: on to Malolile.

2749
02:02:31,840 --> 02:02:34,880
Speaker 3: I would agree there for sure, and seat sampsoncom by

2750
02:02:34,920 --> 02:02:37,440
Speaker 3: the way, got missed off last year with torn Achilles,

2751
02:02:37,480 --> 02:02:39,760
Speaker 3: comes back first game and gets a sack. I know

2752
02:02:39,840 --> 02:02:45,000
Speaker 3: that probably felt yeah exactly, DeForest. I mean, how many

2753
02:02:45,760 --> 02:02:50,160
Speaker 3: sacks by proxy has he generated throughout his career. So

2754
02:02:51,280 --> 02:02:55,240
Speaker 3: we'll see again can that same sort of confusion and

2755
02:02:55,280 --> 02:02:59,880
Speaker 3: disruption show up against this Broncos offense, which was a

2756
02:03:00,120 --> 02:03:01,880
Speaker 3: good in their own right, they were not I want

2757
02:03:01,880 --> 02:03:04,040
Speaker 3: to say, bow Knicks had three turnovers as well as

2758
02:03:04,080 --> 02:03:05,640
Speaker 3: you know, I know two I had three for against

2759
02:03:05,680 --> 02:03:07,560
Speaker 3: the Colts and then bon Knicks is coming off a

2760
02:03:07,560 --> 02:03:10,640
Speaker 3: three turnover performance. So can't he bounce back against this

2761
02:03:10,680 --> 02:03:13,000
Speaker 3: Colt defense or can they continue to build on what

2762
02:03:13,440 --> 02:03:17,120
Speaker 3: was a great opening performance by all the newcomers, including

2763
02:03:17,240 --> 02:03:19,760
Speaker 3: Leu and Rumo, who obviously orchestrated the show.

2764
02:03:20,080 --> 02:03:21,320
Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting you look at some of the

2765
02:03:21,360 --> 02:03:24,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that played really well down the stretch last year.

2766
02:03:24,120 --> 02:03:26,360
Speaker 1: Bo Nix was one of them, saw Bryce Young who

2767
02:03:26,400 --> 02:03:28,840
Speaker 1: was terrific the last five weeks for Carolina, and both

2768
02:03:28,880 --> 02:03:32,280
Speaker 1: those guys just took huge steps back in Week one.

2769
02:03:32,400 --> 02:03:34,520
Speaker 1: Is that Were they both just riding momentum at the

2770
02:03:34,560 --> 02:03:36,160
Speaker 1: end of the year last year? Is this who they

2771
02:03:36,200 --> 02:03:36,760
Speaker 1: really are?

2772
02:03:37,120 --> 02:03:37,600
Speaker 2: Once again?

2773
02:03:37,640 --> 02:03:38,920
Speaker 1: What do you think is going on there?

2774
02:03:39,440 --> 02:03:40,600
Speaker 3: I don't think only one more time.

2775
02:03:40,800 --> 02:03:42,760
Speaker 1: So last year at the end of the year, Bo

2776
02:03:42,880 --> 02:03:45,960
Speaker 1: Nicks and Bryce Shong were two of the top I

2777
02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:49,080
Speaker 1: think rated seven or eight quarterbacks in the league over

2778
02:03:49,080 --> 02:03:52,600
Speaker 1: the last five weeks. Okay, they both looked like none

2779
02:03:52,640 --> 02:03:54,280
Speaker 1: of that ever happened in week one.

2780
02:03:54,560 --> 02:03:56,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know we got a get here pretty soon,

2781
02:03:56,440 --> 02:03:58,960
Speaker 3: but I'll leave it at this. I think bon Nicks,

2782
02:03:59,400 --> 02:04:01,160
Speaker 3: you kind of just us what you got in Sean

2783
02:04:01,200 --> 02:04:03,920
Speaker 3: Payton and what he's done. But Caroline, I think getting

2784
02:04:04,000 --> 02:04:07,520
Speaker 3: rid of Adam Thielen was a big, big decision. And

2785
02:04:07,600 --> 02:04:09,920
Speaker 3: I get you on a draft capital, but man, you

2786
02:04:09,960 --> 02:04:12,720
Speaker 3: got rid of your young quarterbacks best receiver and he

2787
02:04:12,800 --> 02:04:15,240
Speaker 3: struggled mightily in week one, So I don't know where

2788
02:04:15,240 --> 02:04:15,800
Speaker 3: you go from there.

2789
02:04:16,040 --> 02:04:18,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're looking forward to week number two for the
