I was but my wife out quite 8 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 2: a bit. I was distressing to see that as well. 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: So this morning, yeah, a little tribute to him this morning, Kevin, 10 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 2: I was on social media last night. I sent you 11 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: something because I thought you'd appreciate that. 12 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 3: We think of great legacy basketball programs in the United 13 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 3: States of America, and I know things change all the time, 14 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 3: that's the nature of sports. We've seen the dramatic changes 15 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 3: in the last couple of years or whatever. But could 16 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 3: you have imagined even ten years ago going to a 17 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 3: Syracuse Orange game at the Dome up there in western 18 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 3: New York and at tip off seeing the place maybe 19 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 3: fifteen percent full. There was a video going around last 20 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 3: night of the game just before tip and that's what 21 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 3: it looked like. 22 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 23 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 5: I mean, you think about the Behim years, and you know, 24 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 5: even if you take out the national championship team. They 25 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 5: still had, you know, great, great teams around that, and honestly, 26 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 5: you know, part of me kind of longs for the 27 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 5: old Big East. You know, there's part of me that 28 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 5: still would love to see you know, those teams back 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 5: in the Big East. You know, Syracuse is playing who 30 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 5: they play last night? 31 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 4: Cal? 32 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, boy, nothing says acc basketball like a Wednesday night 33 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 5: game between Cal and Syracuse. I mean, like, what are 34 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 5: we doing? Stanford's playing Boston College last night? 35 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: It's there's nothing there. 36 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 5: Names at SMU earlier this week, It's like, you know, 37 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 5: what are we doing there? So you still like I have. 38 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 6: To get a map out most of the time to 39 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 6: figure out. Okay, these conferences don't really exist anymore. 40 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 5: Say what, Matt Taylor, You know he's doing that Indiana 41 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 5: Sports trivia. If he wanted to broaden it to the 42 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 5: US and he did some geography on conference realignment, he 43 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 5: could stump some people. He really could. Trying to peg 44 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 5: exactly what again? 45 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 6: Hilarious dat Rutgers East Coast UCLA US here. 46 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: And that was one of the first dominoes to follow. 47 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, many years ago, spain of Rutgers Big ten, I 48 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 5: did see Michigan survived last night. Northwestern had them down 49 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 5: decent margin there and that could have flipped the Big 50 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 5: Ten up a little bit. I think that would have. 51 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,519 Speaker 5: Again Michigan came back to win. But right now you've 52 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 5: got those four teams with three losses, Perdue being one 53 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 5: of them in the Big Ten conference, but Michigan still 54 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 5: with just one loss so far. Perdue. We'll get the 55 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 5: next week inside of Mackie. So Purdue's week. Next week 56 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 5: they got again Iowa coming up on Saturday, but the 57 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 5: next week they've got Michigan and Indiana inside of mack. 58 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 3: H So that's what was going on outside of our 59 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 3: region for basketball last night. 60 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 2: A little bit more on the Pacers. 61 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 3: If you're just joining us this morning on your way 62 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: to work, thanks for tuning us in. As always, we 63 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 3: appreciate that more than you can even imagine. Indiana Pacers 64 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 3: last night sat Pascal Siakam. They're on the road to 65 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 3: take on the Brooklyn Nets. They sat Pascal Siakam, Andrew Nemhart, 66 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 3: Aaron Nesmith, TJ. McConnell Ofvicha Zubats. They were down double 67 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 3: digits for most of the first half, started to paddle 68 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 3: their way back and messed around and won a basketball 69 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: game last night. 70 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 2: James Boyd, you. 71 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 6: Should be very happy you want to go out there. 72 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 2: I'm fine once the game starts. I want the guys 73 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: out there to win. I'm okay with that. It's to me. 74 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 2: The conversation now is what's the what's the best way 75 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: to tank? 76 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 3: Like at least the guys that the Pacers put out 77 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 3: there played their butts off and tried to win last night. 78 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 2: He can't get mad at them. It's what they do. 79 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 3: That's why if you ever put it, if you ever 80 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 3: put tanking in the hands of the players, that won't work. 81 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: Because players go out there, they want to win, they 82 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 3: want to put themselves on tape, they want to show out, 83 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: they want to compete against the other team. 84 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 6: As I say at Cam Jones, look at the rosters saying, 85 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 6: you ain't get rid of me next year, I'll be here. 86 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 6: Darren Peterson, why do you need him when you got me? 87 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 5: It is kind of crazy. I was thinking about this 88 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 5: watching the game last night. What should the Pacers do 89 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 5: to try and tank the best way possible? Like, if 90 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 5: you are in that camp which mark you did the 91 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 5: poll yesterday, what ninety percent of our audience wants to 92 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 5: see the Pacers tank or I don't know want is 93 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 5: the right word, but understands why they would want to 94 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 5: try and do that to have the best odds at 95 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 5: the top four pick. Wasn't last night? Didn't they do that? 96 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 5: Like they set the guys unlike the next game. You know, 97 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 5: we've had two back to back wins that we've talked 98 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 5: about here. The next game they played the guys, and 99 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 5: they played the guys late. We've seen Utah, for example, 100 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 5: not do that. Utah will play market In, will play 101 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 5: some of their guys, Jaron Jackson Junior. But then when 102 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter gets around, they say, no, no, no, 103 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 5: you're gonna pass out some gatorade. The Pacers against the Knicks, 104 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 5: they played the dudes. But last night they I mean, Jeff, 105 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 5: you just right off the injury port, so I don't 106 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 5: know what else you can do. I mean, hell, if 107 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 5: you want to get technical. They sat Quinton Jackson late 108 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 5: last night. If you would have told me given the 109 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 5: Pacers personnel last night, did Jaris Walker? Was he taking 110 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 5: big shots late in the game last night? 111 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 7: No? 112 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 5: I mean Jarfs Walker and Quintin Jackson are whatever their 113 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 5: two best players, best guards. I don't even know how 114 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 5: you describe it, given the makeup of the team they 115 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 5: put out there last night. So I don't know what 116 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 5: else you can do. The next game is different. The 117 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 5: next game they play their dudes. Last night they didn't. 118 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 5: You just have to live with your the consequences. And 119 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 5: Cam Jones looked like he was going to help you 120 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 5: out there for a minute, and then he bangs home 121 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 5: a three, and then he. 122 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 6: Texted Kevin Pritchard and to take that. 123 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 3: Like I said before, there's your second round draft pick 124 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 3: right there, camera on Kevin Pritchard. Are we talking enough though? 125 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 3: About Quintin Jackson's dunk? That thing was nasty last night. 126 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 5: He's a freak athlete, Honestly. 127 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 6: When I'll see guys like him do that, it just 128 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 6: reminds you of how athletic most of these guys are. 129 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 5: I kind of like Quinn Jackson. I don't I don't 130 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 5: know if he fits into like the rotation when everyone's healthy, 131 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 5: but I'd like to see him keep him around. 132 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 6: I kind of think he's an NBA player, you know, 133 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 6: And now I'll say that, duh, he's an EBA players play. 134 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 6: He just played a game last night. Well, what I 135 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 6: mean by that is, you know he's used like the 136 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 6: two way guy, kind of a g leaguer in between her. 137 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: You think he could be a rotational guy. 138 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 5: I don't say. I didn't say that. 139 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 6: I think he can be an NBA player, meaning he 140 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 6: could be your fifteenth man on a full contract. 141 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 5: In the NBA. Yeah, if you were going to trust 142 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 5: him in like a ten minute Benrol, I think he's 143 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 5: too volatile to trust him. Frankly, like like, let's compare 144 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 5: him to Ben Shepard. Like Ben Shephard for the most part, 145 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 5: you know what you're in a get. Quentin Jackson got 146 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 5: a little lance in him. You know, there's just a 147 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 5: little craziness switch again, the highs are high, trust me. 148 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 5: Look at James Boyd's dating history. Some of the good 149 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 5: crazy can be starting here on this Thursday morning, can 150 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 5: be bad crazy. 151 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 3: But Mark sat up again, got a little alert there 152 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, All of a sudden. 153 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 5: Hey, they were all great women. No, geez, that's the 154 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 5: most politically correct thing you've ever said on the show. 155 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 6: Hey, you wouldn't date anybody, be canceled here on the show. 156 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 2: You wouldn't date anybody but a great woman, right, Jess 157 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 2: Jeff Gosh. 158 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 5: I'll leave it at that, James, did we see late 159 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 5: last night? I forget who maybe had the initial reporting, 160 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:35,119 Speaker 5: but the Colts potentially have a new defensive line coach. Yeah, 161 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 5: I did see this. 162 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 6: I believe he is the now former Arkansaw running back coach. 163 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 6: And this was from Matt Zennitts. He actually gets a 164 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 6: lot of stuff, a lot of reports from CBS Sports, 165 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 6: so he reported that Arkansaw defensive line coach. I'm sorry, Mary, 166 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 6: and Hobby is going to be the new Colts defensive 167 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 6: line coach and mayor and Hobby spent several years with 168 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 6: leuann Umo in Cincinnati, so there's some rapport there. 169 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. Obviously the connection with Louianna Rumo makes sense. A 170 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 5: Hobby's background, plenty of NFL experience. He was, you know, 171 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 5: as James said, joined the Arkansas staff. Looked like he 172 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 5: was going to be coaching in Arkansas this year and 173 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 5: then now he's back in the NFL. But like you said, 174 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 5: it was with Ana Rumo for several seasons before that. 175 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 5: I believe Miami and Jacksonville a couple of stops. So 176 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 5: obviously you see this a lot you saw with Gus Bradley. 177 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 5: Now you're seeing with lou guys, you have the familiar 178 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 5: background with that's who you bring in. So Charlie Partridge, 179 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 5: their previous D line coach left. He had a heavy 180 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 5: college background. He left to go to Notre Dame to 181 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 5: be their D line coach. That has opened up obviously 182 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 5: that position room. And you know, this debate has happened 183 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 5: a lot. To me, the Colts have had a lot 184 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 5: of different defensive line coaches in the Chris Ballard era. 185 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 5: They've had several defensive coordinators that have been different. To me, 186 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 5: it's more personnel than anything. They've tried a bunch of 187 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 5: different position coaches. I pointed to personnel and the need 188 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 5: for new personnels, particularly a defensive end. So I think 189 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 5: Coach Hobby should probably expect some of that. 190 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: You know, I would like to see. 191 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: I've enjoyed the weekly updates that Tygrese Haliburton gives on 192 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,479 Speaker 3: his injured achilles. 193 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 2: Can we get anything like that from Daniel Jones? 194 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 3: Just this is how I'm progressing, this is what I'm doing, 195 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 3: this is how I'm feeling. 196 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: Do we get anything like that? Do you think at 197 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: all before camp next August? 198 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 5: Zero chance? Think Daniel Jones is doing that. I don't 199 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 5: think Daniel Jones is logging too. 200 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 6: His Twitter for sure, and if he ever had one, 201 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 6: I believe his Twitter if you go to it right now, 202 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 6: I want to say he's still in the Giants uniform, 203 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 6: had a couple teams since then. And then his Instagram. 204 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 6: I believe he posts something at the end of the 205 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 6: season when he got hurt. But for the most part, 206 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 6: it's kind of like Tyler Warre where they only post 207 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 6: stuff where they get paid to post it, which I respect. 208 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 8: Daniel Jones is probably still in MySpace in four square. 209 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 2: It's okay though he knows Tom it's so good. 210 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 5: That's a lot closer to Fernando Mendos on LinkedIn than 211 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 5: he is. Ziar Franklin on the podcast World. 212 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 213 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 2: No, I was just curious and as you guys were 214 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: talking about that, that's one of the biggest stories in 215 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 2: the offseason. How does he heal, how does he progress, 216 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: when's he going to be ready to play, what's it 217 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 2: going to look like when he does come back to play, 218 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 2: all those kinds of things. 219 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 5: I do want to get to that, But just one 220 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,719 Speaker 5: more in the new d line coach James I don't 221 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 5: want to overread anything into it. But again, the history 222 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 5: of an rumo also means history with Trey Hendrickson. Yeah, 223 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 5: Trey Hendrickson is a free agent. He is also on 224 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 5: the older side. Yeah, Chris Ballard says, we need to 225 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 5: get younger, we need to get faster. How do you 226 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 5: view I guess let's just leave it right there. How 227 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 5: do you view defensive end this offseason? In what way 228 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 5: will they try to improve it? Assuming they will. 229 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 6: It's funny you mentioned that I'm looking at a mock 230 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 6: draft right now that I have to complete later today 231 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 6: for the. 232 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 5: Athletic and so I'm drafting. 233 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 6: I figured I'm going to draft and edge rusher, and 234 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure if I'm Chris Ballard, I'm probably draft 235 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 6: one in the second round, which I just did last year. 236 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 6: But hey, you keep throwing darts to the board and 237 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 6: hope one of them hits. So I would draft one 238 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 6: early second or third round, and then I would have 239 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 6: to add somebody in free agency. But to your point 240 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 6: about getting younger and faster, you really can't do that 241 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 6: too much in free agency if you want approven commodity. 242 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 6: So I personally wouldn't mind the quote unquote risk of 243 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 6: taking a guy like Trey Hendrickson given his production over 244 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 6: the years, and then he's coming off of a core muscle injury, 245 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 6: which is an ideal older guy like you said, Kevin, 246 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 6: but he has done it at a high level at 247 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 6: some point in his career. So I wouldn't mind taking 248 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 6: a I don't know, one year flyer on the guy 249 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 6: to say, hey, come play with us and see if 250 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 6: you can, you know, re establish yourself with one of 251 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 6: the more better defensive ends in the league. Now, does 252 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 6: he want a long term deal? 253 00:11:58,559 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 5: Probably? Will he get that? 254 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 6: I'm not so sure, but I would definitely try to 255 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 6: get it. I would try to get him here, and 256 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 6: I get it. He's not younger and faster, but he's better. 257 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 6: I mean, could you get any worse than what you 258 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 6: had last year by tian Trey Hendrickson. 259 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 5: Probably not. 260 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: I would think a diminished Trey Hendrickson would be better 261 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 2: than what you had last year. 262 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 5: And that's my point. 263 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 8: So I use numbers up against the Colts D line, 264 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 8: he probably out gains them quite handedly, exactly. 265 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 6: So that's one where again we know what Chris Ballard said, 266 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 6: but that can't be the only box or Lens. You 267 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 6: look at upgrading your past rush with and I also 268 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 6: took it as you have to get younger and faster 269 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 6: on the back end as well with your secondary some 270 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 6: of your cornerbacks Kenny Moore. The second is he somebody 271 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 6: that you keep around this offseason and as well as 272 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 6: linebackers as. 273 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 3: Well, Simoney, Warden need to tell the cults what he 274 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 3: wants to do before the draft. 275 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: Does that matter so much? 276 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 5: Let me slide one more in on James's point, but 277 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 5: yes to your answer there. Yeah, with Hendrickson, I am 278 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 5: nervous about the age, the injuries, and if you look 279 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 5: at the free agent edge rushers. You know Jalen Phillips, 280 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 5: the guy we saw trade at the deadline, he went 281 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 5: to Philly. I know he's He's a name out there. 282 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 5: Adapha Oway is a guy that I like. Was in 283 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 5: Baltimore from a first round pick now at the Chargers. 284 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 5: He got traded last year. It was really productive for 285 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 5: the Chargers late in the season. He is he's of 286 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 5: intrigue to me. One thing to note, and Mark, I 287 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 5: believe you said we'll have Dan Brigler on at the combine. 288 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, looking like the Wednesday of the Combine. 289 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 5: When Dane came out with his top hundred guys for 290 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 5: this year's draft class, one thing that stood out to 291 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 5: me is, I want to say he had eight edge 292 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 5: rushers in the top forty. That is a very high 293 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 5: number to me. Eight edge rushers in the first forty names. 294 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 5: Now the unfortunate nature two that meeting and the Colts 295 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 5: would be the Colts pick of what what is their 296 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 5: pick James forty seven forty seven, So you know, obviously 297 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 5: you would have to hope whatever one of those falls 298 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 5: or you you trade up. But it does sound like 299 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 5: there's some good edge depth, I guess to this draft class, 300 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 5: which again I think is vital. And to your point, 301 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 5: just because you swung last year doesn't mean that you 302 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 5: keep the bat on your shoulders this year. You got 303 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 5: to keep swinging, and so that's how I would view 304 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 5: edge rush there. But it does look like a deeper 305 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 5: pass rush class Jeff. To your point, Yeah, I mean 306 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 5: that's I think one of the combine questions that I 307 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 5: would have is Mooney, and I think Mooney understood that. 308 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 5: He said that at the end of the season, like, yeah, 309 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 5: I need some time, but you know, I will definitely 310 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 5: inform the Colts, And typically when you have these debates 311 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 5: in the off season, this is the time when you 312 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 5: figure that out. You'd give the guy a month and 313 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 5: you know, franchise tag window opens on Tuesday. You know, 314 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 5: we're less than a month away from free agency in 315 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 5: the next few weeks. If he hasn't already, Javarious Award 316 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 5: does need to inform the Colts his plans for twenty 317 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 5: twenty six. 318 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and again you're doing it in the context of 319 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 3: and improving AFC South. 320 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 9: Right. 321 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 3: We saw what Jacksonville did this year, we see what 322 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 3: Houston has done the last couple of years. Who knows 323 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 3: what all the changes in Tennessee mean down the line, 324 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 3: but you better keep up. And the Colts first half 325 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 3: of the season they were it last year. Second half 326 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 3: of the season not so much. And the other teams 327 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 3: just keep getting better as well. The Colts are going 328 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 3: to have to go some to keep up with those teams. 329 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 3: That's the context of the off season right now. 330 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 6: Absolutely, and boy, it'll be a very interesting offseason. 331 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 3: Well, we've got it covered for you, and we're going 332 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 3: to talk to Joel a Ericson of The Indie Star 333 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 3: about that a little bit later on today see what 334 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 3: he's seeing and hearing and thinking about the colts as 335 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 3: they wait until it's hard to believe. Kevin, we talked 336 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: about it yesterday, but the combine is almost here. I 337 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 3: mean we're sitting here in the middle of February now, 338 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 3: Valentine's Day is coming up. 339 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 2: You guys got on Valentine's Day?

He's probably top ten to 382 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 3: fifteen pick, don't you think at some point. 383 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, he was a beast. 384 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 2: And then I didn't. Honestly, I'll be honest with you. 385 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 2: I know he's good, but his Jadarian Price is how 386 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 2: good is he the other running back? 387 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 4: Yeah? 388 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 5: I think I think a lot of guys have him 389 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 5: as a top five running back. And the thing about Price, 390 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 5: which again we're nerding out a little bit here, but 391 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 5: very good kick returner.

Though 420 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 3: she was there with a bunch of her friends. I 421 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 3: was there with the basketball team, and we just kind 422 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 3: of kept up conversation and ended up uh meeting each 423 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 3: other in some different cities after. 424 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: A long time.

I mean, Reggie Miller. 512 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 5: You think of him. 513 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 6: He was a three point goat for so long, and 514 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 6: now I think James Hard has any more threes than him, 515 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 6: Buddy Healed, I think I'm be on pace to pass him. 516 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 5: That's crazy. Yeah, but that's reality. 517 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 9: Changing, the changing game, and the numbers, the changing game. 518 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 9: The numbers always get me. But but but but somebody 519 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 9: who's on TV talking about basketball. Granted it's King, it's 520 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 9: King Lacleur. He's only twenty nine, Like I had to 521 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 9: look all. 522 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: This up after it, but. 523 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 9: Not not knowing Reggie Miller at all. James James, you 524 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 9: know Reggie Miller, You're not You're not that much older 525 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 9: than twenty nine. 526 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 6: Hey, But in fairness, I didn't watch him live verych 527 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 6: not just a basketball guru. So I'll leave it at 528 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 6: that to pivot to more cults related things, which is 529 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 6: what you cover on a more day to day basis. 530 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 6: Joel or a few weeks out from the NFL Draft combine, 531 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 6: if I had to tell you, Okay, your first pick 532 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 6: this year is not in the first round, second round, 533 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 6: it's number forty seven, I believe right now, what position 534 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 6: are you taking with that pick? 535 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 9: If I'm going straight need, you know with this Colts team, 536 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 9: it's got to be a defensive end, I think. But 537 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 9: the problem is forty seven. I think Colts fans now 538 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 9: know after the last nine years or so that getting 539 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 9: defensive ends in the second round doesn't always pan out 540 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 9: the way you'd like ins of in terms of that stuff. 541 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 9: So I don't think you can go necessarily straight need 542 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 9: with it. You think you'd obviously go whoever you think 543 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 9: is the best player available, but you want that player. 544 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 5: To be somewhere on defense. 545 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 9: You want that player to be somewhere on defense. But 546 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 9: it's not necessarily a type of spot where you normally think, okay, 547 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 9: this is where I get a difference making defensive end. 548 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 9: Those picks usually come from one to a about twelve 549 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 9: or so. 550 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 2: Joel A. 551 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 5: Erickson from the Star with us here talking a little Colts, 552 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,959 Speaker 5: a little bit of everything. I guess on this Wednesday 553 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 5: or Thursday morning, I should say, any chance you think 554 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 5: franchise tag for Daniel Jones. 555 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 9: I think what's more likely is that Jones signs in 556 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 9: Indy and then maybe we see a franchise tag on 557 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 9: Alec Pierce. It just seemed when we left and everything 558 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,719 Speaker 9: we've heard since then, but really, really that Chris Ballard 559 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 9: press conference kind of confirmed what we've been hearing all along, 560 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 9: was that this team was all in on Daniel Jones. 561 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 9: I think they'll they'll kind of do whatever it takes 562 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 9: to make sure that he doesn't get to the market. So, 563 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 9: you know, without without having been to the Combine yet 564 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 9: gotten a chance to talk to a bunch of people, 565 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 9: I would guess that that's getting him in the fold 566 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 9: early is priority ones that you can then open your 567 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 9: options for what you do with peers. 568 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 2: Joli ericson joining us from the Indie Star. We're talking 569 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 2: Colts football. They announced the list of Combine invitees yesterday, 570 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 2: a ton of Indiana and some Notre Dame guys. 571 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 7: On. 572 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 2: There anybody from Indiana that you could see fitting with 573 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 2: the Indianapolis Colts down the line in the draft. 574 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 7: Uh? 575 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean. 576 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 9: Some of it, some of those guys. It depends on, uh, 577 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 9: in terms of like do the Colts make a move 578 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 9: away from a veteran you know, D'Angelo pond didn't like 579 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 9: the biggest guy, but he does feel like the kind 580 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 9: of guy that you could use as a nickel in 581 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 9: the NFL and use very very well and devastatingly as 582 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 9: a nickel if they were going to move away from 583 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 9: you know, if they moved away from Michael Pittman, do 584 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 9: you do you look at one of the wide receivers 585 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 9: there as a replacement for that. I think those guys 586 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 9: were the ones that jumped to mind first in terms 587 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 9: of in terms of Indiana players coming to coming to 588 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 9: the Colts that it's usually you think of in the NFL. 589 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,959 Speaker 9: You don't think of the local guy ending up though, uh, 590 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 9: in the in the team with the team next door, 591 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 9: because it just doesn't seem to work out like that. 592 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 2: That's just when was the last time, like ever, Indiana's 593 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 2: got guys, Like the SEC teams have guys and they're 594 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 2: legitimate guys, and there are many of them. 595 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, I know normally when you go to the combine, 596 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 9: you're talking about you know one or yeah, I see 597 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 9: I see Zachksterman on the combine floor like one day. 598 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 9: But it seems like those guys are gonna have to 599 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 9: be up here doing quite a bit more. I will 600 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,959 Speaker 9: say this was a big storyline when I lived in 601 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 9: when I covered the Saints and I lived in New 602 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,719 Speaker 9: Orleans because LSU that you know, the Saints row, they 603 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 9: were always getting killed for not drafting LSU guys, and 604 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 9: their point was it was always, well, a lot of 605 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 9: times ls you guys are gone before we have a 606 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 9: chance to pick. So that, uh, that that could come 607 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 9: into play again this this April. 608 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 5: Joe, You're smart, dude. You got any good tanking correction 609 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 5: ideas for the NBA? 610 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 9: I uh I, I don't know if I have a 611 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 9: good one in terms of because one of the other 612 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 9: things that that stuck out to me is that the 613 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 9: you have even like that. I watched Spurs Thunder recently, 614 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 9: I watched Spurs Lakers where they those teams are in 615 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 9: the playoffs and they're not playing anybody on a given night, 616 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 9: and I don't know, if that's going on, how you 617 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 9: keep you know, a team like the Pacers from not 618 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 9: playing anybody, or a team like the Nets from not 619 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 9: playing their starters. It it seems like the lottery should 620 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 9: take some of that out. But then there's also the 621 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 9: piece of it where you know, I've been seeing the 622 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 9: stats about, you know, the team that with the worst 623 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 9: record hasn't gotten the number one pick in like five 624 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 9: years or something like that, and I don't know it is. 625 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 4: The the the one. 626 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 9: I saw was what I saw somebody come up with 627 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 9: was do it in reverse order. The team with the 628 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 9: the best record of those teams gets a gets the 629 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 9: first pick. But that's not that's not fair either, because 630 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 9: then you get teams that maybe had like one injury 631 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 9: and should be a playoff team getting the first pick. 632 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 6: I mean, that would literally probably be the Pacers right now, 633 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 6: if I'm being honest, if tires Halliburn's healthy there and 634 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 6: their record isn't what it is. So it's very interesting concept, 635 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,239 Speaker 6: to say the least. Joel and I enjoyed seeing some 636 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 6: of your tweets and updates. I did see that you 637 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 6: had a chance to type up some of the comments 638 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 6: from Chad Ken and as well about the addition of 639 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 6: if eats a zubats. So you got the full I 640 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 6: feel like experience, even though you're probably sitting at home, 641 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 6: but you got a little news in there. You got 642 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 6: a close game there. You know how it feel it 643 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 6: be covering. I guess a later, a later start in 644 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 6: the middle of the week. I gave it up, brother, 645 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 6: and I don't know if I ever go back. 646 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 9: I I I like moonlight. I got on Pacers whatever, 647 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 9: Dustin whenever Dustin needs a help. I mean you, James, 648 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 9: you know I'm not I'm not as big an NBA 649 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 9: guy as you are, but I am a I am 650 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 9: an NBA guy. It's fun. It's fun to jump on 651 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 9: there and uh and get get a good look at 652 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 9: the pacers. 653 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 2: I thought what. 654 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 9: Beganon said about knowing that the championship window closed sometimes 655 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 9: closes quicker than you expect was a really interesting thing. 656 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 9: And that's one of those things that really anything I write. 657 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 9: I kind of wonder if Dustin would go, oh, you know, 658 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 9: that's old news. But I thought that was an interesting 659 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 9: quote in terms of I thought that was an interesting 660 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 9: quote in terms of where the pacers thinking is that 661 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 9: you know, you you've you can't expect this this core 662 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 9: to be in championship contention forever, just because that's just 663 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 9: not how it always works out in the NBA. 664 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 6: Well, I got one more before we let you go, 665 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 6: Joel so and I got to see in his tweet, 666 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 6: so I think you put out there, Hey, I'm filling 667 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 6: in for Dustin. He's resting the second night of a 668 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 6: back to back, I lost some of the stars of 669 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 6: the Pacers. And then I believe Scott Horner chimed in 670 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 6: and was like, well, it's Dustin tanking. 671 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 5: So have you got any. 672 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 6: Information on that? So we'll be able to the lead 673 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 6: be investigating Dustin to pirek uh. 674 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 9: Well, here's here's the thing, though, Dustin Dustin. You know 675 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 9: in this in this scenario, Dustin's a player. So really 676 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 9: it's that newle that I think to bed. 677 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 6: Right Editor Andy Starr, Okay, all right, you know I 678 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 6: always got a little smoke for for nat out there, 679 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 6: the former boss. 680 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 9: Does that have to be investigated for taking for putting 681 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 9: a football. 682 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 5: Guy out there on a basketball night? 683 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 3: That's the real question, Ah, The real question is your 684 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 3: your Brewers or Mark's Cubs are our Reds. 685 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 2: At the end of the year. That's the question. 686 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 5: Don't get them started. 687 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 9: It's it's a good one. 688 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 5: It's a good one. Where's where's the I is? 689 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 9: How's how's Mark Dykeden feeling? Is Mark Dykeden feeling? 690 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 5: Oh? 691 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 2: He was calling for championship twenty minutes ago. I'm feeling Condon. 692 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 8: I mean, the addition of Alex Bregman made me feel better. 693 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 8: I think they'll get a solid rotation with the once 694 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 8: Justin Steele fully returns and all that stuff. So I'm 695 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 8: feeling pretty good. 696 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 9: Hm, the uh and the Reds guys, The Reds guys, 697 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 9: what do we got? We were thinking on the red Kevin. 698 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 3: Kevin and I were talking this is the year for 699 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 3: World Series, building off that that playoff push and surprise 700 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 3: appearance in the postseason like. 701 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 5: Now, but here come the Red Legs. How were you 702 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 5: murmuring back there? 703 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 8: You were saying they're going to win it? 704 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 5: All right? Yeah, I know, I don't think I minced words. 705 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 8: Water smells like vodka if you ask me. 706 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 3: All right, So I saw one projection from a bunch 707 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 3: of baseball analysts that said Cubs eighty eight wins, Brewers 708 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 3: eighty seven, Cubs are in the red seventy eighty three, 709 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 3: So eighty eight, eighty seven, eighty three, that's what projection 710 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 3: was that that came from the USA today, your employer. 711 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 9: Oh, the projection system is usually hate Milwaukee and it makes. 712 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 2: Well, this is a five person panel, so oh okay. 713 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 9: Well, so the reason I saw this the other day 714 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 9: I just this will this will give you guys a 715 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 9: window into my how how bad of a nerd I am? 716 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 9: I saw from Pakoda, which obviously does some good projecting 717 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 9: for baseball, they were saying that teams that the small 718 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 9: market teams that use younger players, it's harder to project 719 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 9: them because those projections are based on track record essentially, 720 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 9: and guys who are younger, who are just called up 721 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 9: don't have a track record in the major So it's 722 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 9: much easier to project a team like the Phillies than 723 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 9: it is a team like the Brewers, because I think 724 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 9: the CODA has them at eighty one wins or something 725 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 9: like that. But that's that's that's kind of that's kind 726 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 9: of far. For the course, the all of zips, all 727 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 9: of those, all of the analytical things always have them low. 728 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 9: And that that makes sense to me that it's because 729 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 9: of the young. 730 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: Guys sh shockingly, they all think the Dodgers are going 731 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 2: to win ninety eight games. I don't know how that acts. 732 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 5: Joel sounded like me describing high school recruiting and golf yesterday. 733 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 3: All right, I will love you, Joel. I will leave 734 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 3: you to your day. Thanks for spending time with us. 735 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 3: We appreciate it. 736 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 4: You bet. 737 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 9: We'll see you guys. 738 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 3: Good morning everyone, Thursday and the Fan Morning Show along 739 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 3: with Keptain Bowen, James Boyd, I'm jeff Rickard, Mark Dyke 740 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 3: and spinning the tunes back there, and we are talking 741 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 3: Pacers basketball. 742 00:33:58,440 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: Despite all efforts. 743 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 3: We've been talking about it this morning, despite all efforts, 744 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,479 Speaker 3: they come up with a win last night against the 745 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 3: New Jersey the Brooklyn Nets, I'll say New Jersey Nets and. 746 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 2: San Diego Chargers forever probably. 747 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 3: But the Pacers went at one fifteen to one ten, 748 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 3: and we've been talking about all morning long. We thought 749 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 3: we check in with Scott Agnes from the Fieldhouse Files 750 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 3: to get his reaction. He joined us now on the 751 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 3: Payless Lookers hotline. So, mister Agnes, on a night when 752 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 3: the Pacers play without Pascal Siakam, Andrew Nemhard, Aaron Nismian, 753 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 3: TJ McConnell, Avitz a zubatch, clearly without Obi Toppin and 754 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 3: clearly without Tyrese Halliburton. They go on the road and 755 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 3: they win a basketball game. 756 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 2: How surprised were you? 757 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 4: Just a little bit only because. 758 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 7: How many a few players they had available, right, But 759 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 7: the grand scheme of things is that the nets were 760 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 7: down players too. What you're seeing a lot of times 761 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 7: is opponents sneaking in rest for some of their blessed 762 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 7: best players when a team like the Pacers comes around. 763 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 7: But I'm not surprised mostly though, Jeff, because you've got 764 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 7: to remember, like seven guys that are available, they're playing 765 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 7: for a job. Some of them are trying to play 766 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 7: for better jobs, and so much like you know, the 767 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 7: final NFL game or whatever, there's a lot on the 768 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 7: line for these guys, and they played hard. 769 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 4: Scott. 770 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 5: So far, we have yet to see Rick Carlisle go 771 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:20,760 Speaker 5: with like the full on sit Siakam Sidney Smith sitting 772 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 5: him hard, unless it's been a back to back. We 773 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 5: haven't even seen him do with the Jazz have done 774 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 5: and you know, play the guys for three quarters and 775 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 5: then sit them post All Star break. What do you 776 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 5: think we will see? We will we see the continued 777 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 5: nature to what they're doing mostly second nights of back 778 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 5: to backs, or do you think we'll see more outright resting? 779 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 7: Well, it did catch my eye last night KB the 780 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 7: top three scores, I think at that time where Jaris Walker, 781 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 7: Quinton Jackson, and Ethan Thompson, and none of those guys 782 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 7: were in in the final minutes. I remember specifically it 783 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 7: was three minutes left and Jaris Walker was subbed out 784 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 7: for Micah Potter. 785 00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 4: Maybe something, maybe nothing, But realistically, I think I think it's. 786 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 7: More likely that their minutes are reduced much more than 787 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 7: it is guys taking games off or anything like that. 788 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 7: I think you bring you take your time with Obi Tappen. 789 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 7: You obviously take your time with Zubots. Those guys in particular, 790 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 7: there's guys like Nie Smith who could very much use 791 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 7: a couple couple additional games. But I think it'll be 792 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 7: a matter of more so how they handle minutes and 793 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 7: rotation rather than playing games like last night where you 794 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 7: have half your roster available, Scott. 795 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 6: When you look at the addition of Avisa, Zubots and 796 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 6: what Chad Buchanus on the broadcast last night of Hey, 797 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 6: you want to be right back into championship contention next year. 798 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 6: How do you think Zubots perhaps add to that, even 799 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 6: with the implications of the draft. 800 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, Number one, James stableizes at center spot that just 801 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 7: has been out of sorts all season, right, just because 802 00:36:55,800 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 7: you didn't have anybody of that caliber. And the and 803 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 7: where he really increases what they do is rebounding, something 804 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 7: they really have not had out of that position other 805 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 7: than maybe somebonus in recent years. But more than that, 806 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 7: it's his versatility, it's fits production. His physicality is intriguing. 807 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 7: But what I'm really curious to see is so much 808 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 7: of what Miles did with pick and pop and Zubots 809 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 7: is going to be rolling or got to be prepared 810 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 7: to knock down and say that's fifteen foot or right. 811 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 7: And so I cautiously optimistically feel good about where the 812 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 7: Pacers can be next season. But you got several of 813 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 7: these guys coming off significant injuries, certainly number one being 814 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,439 Speaker 7: Tyrese that it will take some time, but I think 815 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 7: having Zubots having that position handled now, you're just intrigued. 816 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 4: To go back to the last question is. 817 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 7: Can you finish this season on a positive note while 818 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 7: also doing your best giving yourself the best case to 819 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 7: secure that top four. 820 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 4: Pick, and therefore you would retain it. 821 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,040 Speaker 3: Scott Agnes field House Files joining us here on the 822 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 3: Payless Slickers hotline. It's been the topic all day, and 823 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,399 Speaker 3: you've been talking about the Pacers and their role in it. 824 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 2: Is there a fix. 825 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:09,720 Speaker 4: In terms of tanking. 826 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 7: I've seen a few ideas tossed out that I'd. 827 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 4: Give some consideration too. 828 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 7: But realistically, I think teams, especially what have we been 829 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 7: talking about in the last fifteen years, analytics data driven. 830 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 7: I think the Pacers employ about five data people for basketball. 831 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,760 Speaker 4: And for the front office. They all have their different roles. 832 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 7: I just think that's if any team can can get 833 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 7: an advantage, I think they're going to try to in 834 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 7: a certain way, especially these smaller markets, because. 835 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 4: They need any any little little little leg. 836 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 7: Up on the Lakers, on the Knicks that they can get, 837 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:46,840 Speaker 7: for example. 838 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 4: But one idea was, do you do you set the lottery? 839 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 7: You know right now and so hey, you can't hurt 840 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 7: or help your chances the rest of the way, so 841 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,959 Speaker 7: you might as well change. I've also seen years ago 842 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 7: there's a discussion about just giving having some kind of 843 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 7: lottery odds where in general, I think all teams would 844 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 7: have a chance of it at it eventually, and so 845 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 7: it would be less season specific. But then how do 846 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 7: you then you have a more likely than not you 847 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 7: would have a case of what happened in Golden State 848 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 7: happened where the rich get richer and it takes a 849 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 7: little bit longer for teams rebuild. What I would like 850 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 7: to see, Jeff, is for the league office to come 851 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 7: a little bit more harsher here. If it is blatant, 852 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 7: which is not what the Pacers have been doing by 853 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 7: any means, but what Utaw, for example. 854 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 4: Is doing. 855 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 7: If it is blatant, there needs to be some kind 856 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 7: of fine, some kind of penalty, to which point we'll 857 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 7: find out what number eventually is harsh enough, and then 858 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 7: teams will stop and they'll adapt. 859 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 5: Scott, I say, screw the fine, They're going to pay 860 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,399 Speaker 5: whatever they want to pay. You got to take away 861 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 5: draft picks if you really want to make a punishment, 862 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 5: and that is a severe punishment. But we see this 863 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 5: across all pro sports. Owners will happily happily right well, 864 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 5: I don't know that many happiies, but they will. They 865 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 5: are content to write a check as long as they 866 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 5: can maintain the building process to their operation. 867 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 7: I you draft, I'm good with that then, But what 868 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 7: I would say is, you don't take it away. 869 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 4: You go to the back of the lottery line. 870 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 7: So if you're fighting for two, three, and four, now 871 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 7: you go to fourteen, and you could move up if 872 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 7: another team follows and tries to treat the system as well. 873 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 7: But I don't want to reduce the number of draft 874 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 7: picks because then you're reducing the chances for players to 875 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,399 Speaker 7: get drafted and all of. 876 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 4: That as well. But I'm good with that. 877 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 5: I like moving back the lottery. I think that's a 878 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 5: good idea. Scott agnesfield House files with us. That's where 879 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 5: you can find his work. We are approaching a little 880 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 5: bit more on the Indiana fever. We saw the news 881 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 5: yesterday Caitlin Clark Leah Boston a part of a five 882 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,720 Speaker 5: game Team USA schedule coming up. This is next month 883 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 5: down in Puerto Rico. Scott, do you have any idea 884 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 5: will those games be aired on TV? I asked that 885 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 5: because obviously we haven't seen Kitlin Clark in a five 886 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 5: on five setting and quite some time. 887 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:08,399 Speaker 4: Yeah. 888 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 7: No, we do not know just yet, but you would 889 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 7: assume somebody would be smart enough to pick this up, 890 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,240 Speaker 7: and I would be stunned if it wasn't at least 891 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 7: available on something like an ESPN Plus platform, just because 892 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 7: a lot of Phoba games are televised in general, but 893 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 7: these being just a qualifying tournament, I wonder how that 894 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 7: factors in. I wouldn't be certain that it's on any 895 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 7: kind of linear network, but I would be sure. 896 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 4: I would guess it is streamed. 897 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 7: It's the most dominant, you know, women's basketball team being 898 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 7: the Olympics type squad, and this group's trying to participate 899 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 7: in that. They've already, by the way, qualified for the Olympics. 900 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 7: So this is all about a new coach in Karl 901 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 7: Lawson and a new group of players in addition to 902 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 7: some that will obviously be back for the Olympic team, 903 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 7: kind of getting their first taste together and building that continuity. 904 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,879 Speaker 6: So, Scott, you know how much of a competitor can is? 905 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 6: Do you think she's still caring a little bit of that? 906 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 6: I should have been here a little while ago, but 907 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 6: now I'm here now, and I have to, you know, 908 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 6: show you all. 909 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 5: Why. 910 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, yeah, she doesn't forget anything. No no, no, no, no, yeah, 911 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 7: she's super competitive, you get it. Absolutely. I don't think 912 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,839 Speaker 7: it's in a detrimental way, No, but I think that 913 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 7: as she takes the courtache game, I'd sit there, all right, 914 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 7: you didn't want me. Let's and it's not to say 915 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 7: I need to force shots or do anything, and more 916 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 7: of just let's channel this flight like so many of 917 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 7: the greats have done. 918 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,919 Speaker 4: And yeah, that that didn't go in anywhere. She's always 919 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 4: going to remember that. 920 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, when I think of Caitlyn, and honestly, maybe I'm 921 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,399 Speaker 6: too online with this guy, but I thought she took 922 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 6: a lot of criticism last year as she battled through 923 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 6: the injuries and ultimately had said of the rest of 924 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 6: the season, And it's almost a little bit of like, 925 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 6: did you all forget that she was first team All 926 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 6: WNBA as a rookie. 927 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 5: And so, I mean, James, oh lord, I mean, I love. 928 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 6: Reggie Mill, but I don't know if if Reggie's really 929 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 6: is dialed in? Is you and I are a Scott 930 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 6: And honestly, you and Tony East more so than I. 931 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 6: But yeah, well we'll have to check in with Reggie 932 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 6: to see if after Caitlyn does her thing with Team USA, 933 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 6: his opinion changes. 934 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 5: Did you see her tweet? I'm sure Scott saw. Scott 935 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 5: you saw the Caitlin Clark tweet when the NBA had 936 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 5: the highlight of Peyton. Pritchard hit a buzzer beat her 937 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 5: and she she gave a couple of wink emojis. 938 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 4: I believe, oh absolutely. 939 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 7: And again that's her being her kind of playful, uncurious self, 940 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 7: which is exactly who she is as like a twenty 941 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 7: three year old. 942 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,399 Speaker 4: She's she you know that got to her. 943 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 7: Oh yes, it's like what, I'm sorry what I'm a 944 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 7: generational player, like if you default to anyone at Steph Curry, 945 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 7: like if you give no outside the box thinking that's 946 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 7: who it is. 947 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,280 Speaker 4: What was so odd about it, guys, was the fact. 948 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 7: That those are usually planned segments, planned you know, planned 949 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:54,479 Speaker 7: talking points, meaning she had all afternoon to. 950 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 4: Consider who might be that individual. 951 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 7: I doubt he was caught off guard by the question, 952 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 7: which then you might understan. But it was funny to 953 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,279 Speaker 7: see Kaitlyn lean into it because I think it was 954 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 7: Pritchard making a buzzer beater and a big shot and 955 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 7: she was like, yeah, sure I do that too. 956 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 2: Last thing on Caitlyn too. 957 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 3: I just find it so cool maybe she's hanging around 958 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 3: because she's rehabbing, whatever. Just the fact that she's become 959 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 3: such a part of Indianapolis and she shows up at 960 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 3: high school basketball games, college games, NFL games, like she 961 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 3: has fully embraced Indianapolis as a place to be and 962 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 3: I love that you shed any more light on how 963 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 3: she views living here and being a part of this. 964 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, this is a big reason why she was excited 965 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 7: to go presumably at the time obviously, but number one, 966 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 7: to Indiana. She's a Midwest girl. She's from you know, 967 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 7: five six hour drive, so it's easy to be with 968 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 7: family friends, and they were grew up very much like 969 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,399 Speaker 7: all of us. And in fact, she committed and thought 970 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 7: she might go to Notre Dame and so all along, 971 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,879 Speaker 7: coming to Indiana was the best case scenario for her 972 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 7: with the draft, and then I think think she's just 973 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 7: taken off. 974 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:02,439 Speaker 4: With at number one. 975 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 7: She's able to use the team practice facilities, and that 976 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,840 Speaker 7: obviously had a big impact. She's a big sports viewer, 977 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 7: much like Tyree's on the men's side, and so if 978 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 7: there's some kind of competitive. 979 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 4: Game, she wants to watch it and see all of that. 980 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 7: Obviously, your boyfriend Connor McCaffrey at Butler has been a 981 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 7: huge influence and. 982 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 4: A lot of that as well. And then just the 983 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:25,720 Speaker 4: fact that. 984 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 7: She's an avid sports fan.

If I gave 1006 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,840 Speaker 8: you four years to train for that in the twenty 1007 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 8: thirty Olympics. You think you could qualify for Well, I'm 1008 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 8: not qualifying for anything. 1009 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 5: What would be the years. 1010 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 8: That would be? Like, I'm taking that on. I think 1011 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 8: I have a chain. 1012 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 10: I'll probably roll with curling because it's the safest of 1013 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:42,879 Speaker 10: the winter sports, because anything that involves ski snowboarding I'm 1014 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 10: gonna be in the hospital for a very long time. 1015 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 5: I feel like curling is the easy answer. But I 1016 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 5: am kind of fascinated by the luge, skeleton, bob slid, 1017 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 5: okay angle to it now. I think there's different body 1018 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,319 Speaker 5: types for all three. Like Bob slid. I think there 1019 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 5: is like a track element to it. There is a 1020 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 5: obviously a strength element to it, pushing the sled, you 1021 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 5: know there at the start, But and I don't know, 1022 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 5: may that's a cool runnings to make coming out, But yeah, 1023 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:10,480 Speaker 5: I mean it is probably curling. 1024 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 8: I mean I'm taking the bob sled only because there's 1025 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,440 Speaker 8: three other guys. I'm like, I could be the weak Lincoln. 1026 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:16,839 Speaker 8: I think I'd still be all right. 1027 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 3: Well, Mark, I'm going to be eight hundred and seventy 1028 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 3: two in twenty thirty. 1029 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 2: What would you like me to compete in? 1030 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 8: There's got to be some geriatric jump on it or something. 1031 00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 2: I'll jump on a on a luge. 1032 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:29,359 Speaker 5: Oh boy, you. 1033 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 8: Better update the life insurance. I would say, Well, I. 1034 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 3: Means I got used to going downhill fast on a 1035 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 3: bike all those years ago. 1036 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 2: I don't mind speed. Try that, okay, all right? 1037 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 8: Uh we we've seen the Hall of Fame votes not 1038 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 8: going in favor of Reggie Wayne, and we've seen Annavarian 1039 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 8: Vine Terry is going to go in in twenty twenty six. 1040 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 8: Who is the next Colts player that will get the 1041 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 8: Canton invite? Is it Wayne or someone else? 1042 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 6: That's a good question, is Robert mathis I. 1043 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 5: Would say it'll be Frank Gore. You know, I get 1044 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 5: that he only played here for a couple of years, 1045 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 5: But if I'm not mistaken, I think we have m Chapel. 1046 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 5: On last week he said that Gore got to the 1047 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:13,879 Speaker 5: top ten, and I just think running back resumes will 1048 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 5: age better than wide receiver resumes, given with how the 1049 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:21,840 Speaker 5: nature of the NFL is played. So yeah, Mark, I 1050 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 5: would say Frank Gore. If you want to go with 1051 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 5: traditional cult, you know, we probably don't think of Gore 1052 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 5: like that, then I'm probably going math as myself now 1053 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 5: mathis didn't make the final fifteen, right. 1054 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 6: I don't believe so, but looking at his resume. 1055 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 5: I think he has a deserving camp in case more 1056 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 5: than most. But I feel like I've got to be Wayne, right. 1057 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, but I guess I was trying to be a 1058 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:47,720 Speaker 6: little different from the crowd. 1059 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:52,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, Frank Gore is number three all time career rushing 1060 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:56,360 Speaker 3: yards in the National Football League and now he played 1061 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 3: for a million years, but so well respected around the 1062 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 3: league and putting up those kind of numbers. 1063 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 2: I mean, the only two in front of him are 1064 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:04,880 Speaker 2: Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton. 1065 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 5: See, I think playing for the million years at that 1066 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 5: position as a compliment, I do take people view it 1067 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,320 Speaker 5: negative league Like Frank Gordon didn't have the star study 1068 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 5: of years. He was never a top three at his position. 1069 00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 5: But to me, longevity at running back is incredible. Yeah, 1070 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 5: and I mean how many what did he overcome an 1071 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 5: ACL in college and then maybe two acls in college 1072 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,760 Speaker 5: or an ACL early in his NFL career as well. 1073 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 3: I'll also point out that Emmitt Smith, who's on top 1074 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 3: average four point two yards of carry, Walter Payton was second. 1075 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 2: With four point four yards per carry. Frank Gore four 1076 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 2: point three yards per carry. That's pretty good. 1077 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 3: You'd take that for fifteen years when you have four 1078 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 3: point three for sure? 1079 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1080 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 8: Are we here on the league about teams like the 1081 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 8: Seahawks and Rams willing to make the tough decisions for 1082 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 8: the greater good and reaping the benefits of being well 1083 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 8: run organizations from the top on down? Do you think 1084 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,839 Speaker 8: the Colts are viewed in league circles look like that 1085 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 8: as far as optics is concerned. 1086 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 2: Hmm, Kevin, You've been around that team for a long time. 1087 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:05,200 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1088 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 5: I mean I think league wide, I think they're viewed 1089 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 5: in a fine light. I you know, I think at 1090 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 5: times there's maybe a little bit of a misconception on 1091 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 5: like the Chris ballad resume league wide. I don't know, 1092 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 5: maybe you start to hear more of the chatter of like, 1093 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 5: really he's getting a tenth crack at it, you know, 1094 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,400 Speaker 5: here in our own little bubble. I go back to, 1095 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 5: you know, we had a listener reach out about the 1096 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 5: Zubats trade last week, and you know, there are some 1097 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 5: questions about the trade. Obviously we've gotten into the pick 1098 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 5: debate and all of that, and the listener simply just said, 1099 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 5: unlike the Colts. The Pacers have earned my trust when 1100 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:42,280 Speaker 5: it comes to these moves, and I think that pretty 1101 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:45,239 Speaker 5: much sums it up quite well. May if you look 1102 00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 5: at the Kevin Pritchard, it's not like Pritchard's hit on 1103 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,240 Speaker 5: a bunch of first round picks, but yet he's built 1104 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 5: a championship team without a lot of that. I would 1105 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 5: say I would agree with Kevin on that one. 1106 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 6: I mean, it's it's hard for me to look at 1107 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 6: the Colts in any other light quite frankly. 1108 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 5: Like, I don't think they're this massive league wide dysfunction. Yeah, 1109 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 5: you know, it's not like they have a ton of 1110 00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 5: off the field issue. I think the luster is gone. 1111 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 5: Like honestly, they probably is an afterthought. 1112 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, the juju and the shimmer no longer there. 1113 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 8: Do you think it's events? But like when they you know, 1114 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 8: if you if you pulled an NFL fan outside of 1115 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 8: like Indianapolis and all that stuff, like you're like, what 1116 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 8: do you know about the Colts? Don't you think they say, 1117 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 8: hiring Jeff Saturday and bringing Philip Rivers out of the 1118 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,279 Speaker 8: time were kind of like no other franchises doing that. 1119 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think there is Yeah, for the general NFL 1120 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 6: fan Yeah, the headlining moves would be clownish. 1121 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 5: By the way, when she said Shimmer, Carl Orse Gordon 1122 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,720 Speaker 5: the press conference and she said Juju first and then Shimmer, 1123 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 5: I thought Juju Brents had changed his last. 1124 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 2: Name Juju Shimmer. 1125 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 5: I swear that was my first thought. I told her unequivocally, 1126 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 5: I have not lost my shimmer, Juju or confidence or 1127 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 5: whatever you want to say it is. I got to 1128 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 5: pull that out more. Yeah, I think that that you 1129 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 5: hit us say that on Valentine's Day to Maddie. 1130 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 2: You still have your juju. I still tell missus Rickards, 1131 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:06,800 Speaker 2: she's the most beautiful woman I've ever met every. 1132 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,319 Speaker 5: Day and every single day, and he takes some notes 1133 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 5: from the boss man. 1134 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 3: Well, I make plenty of missteps to believe me, Mark, 1135 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:14,879 Speaker 3: I think that that kept the moment. 1136 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,600 Speaker 2: I think in leak circles they're kind of like an afterthought. 1137 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 3: I don't like anybody thinks that they're terrible, but I 1138 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 3: don't think anybody thinks they're any close. 1139 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:23,239 Speaker 2: To elite either. 1140 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:26,319 Speaker 3: They're just they're in a legit NFL football team, and 1141 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:26,799 Speaker 3: that's about it. 1142 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 8: I tend to agree. All right, let's put the sports 1143 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 8: discussion to the side. Your current biggest pet peeve is 1144 00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:34,880 Speaker 8: what if you want to simmer on that for a minute. 1145 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 8: My biggest one is the people that feel the need 1146 00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:40,399 Speaker 8: to back into every parking spot that ever existed. Can 1147 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 8: you get the hell out of the way. Just let 1148 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 8: they get past you, like it's not like you're turning 1149 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 8: on your blinker. They go past, like, oh the spots 1150 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 8: for me, and then they start backing and like, just just 1151 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:51,799 Speaker 8: pull in like a normal human.

It sounds like you should 1159 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 5: listen to my father, a former Traverse Head teacher. 1160 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,160 Speaker 2: Maybe you should get him a session. 1161 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 5: I'll go, I'll go, yeah, okay. 1162 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 6: So my biggest pet peeve to keep it sports related, 1163 00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 6: will probably be at these high school games when people 1164 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 6: just harass the refs, because I promise you I would 1165 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 6: never ref your kids, like I don't think people realize, 1166 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 6: and there's probably a bunch of stats on and I'm 1167 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 6: sure Kyle Netton Rips did a story on it. I 1168 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 6: have as well years ago.
