1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,920
Speaker 1: Good morning everyone. You've made it all the way to Friday,

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: getting ready for a big weekend. We got more Olympic

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: hockey to talk about today as we do. We've got

4
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: all kinds of gold medals taking place over there in Italy, and.

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 2: Guys, I don't know how to feel. I'm watching the

6
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 2: game last night. I get excited because the Pacers go

7
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 2: up by one there's like five and a half minutes.

8
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 1: Ago, and then I gotta remember, wait, wait, we don't

9
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: want to lose this game.

10
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 2: And then there's a fourteen old run and I'm like,

11
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: I guess that's the way it's supposed to be. I

12
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 2: hate losing. This is gonna be so hard for the

13
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: next two months. I hate losing.

14
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 3: I hear your brother, But think of the big picture, Jeff.

15
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 4: I'm trying logically short term winning the long term.

16
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: Logically I get it, but it's like taking your medicine.

17
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 2: I don't like the taste of it.

18
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 4: Kevin, I encourage you to read your children The Tortoise

19
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 4: and the Hair Story. This is what we're experiencing right now.

20
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 5: You want to come over and Uncle JV can read it.

21
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 4: Uncle JB will break it down to him. Hey, Max, Rosie.

22
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 4: This is how you tank in the eyes of the

23
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 4: tors and the air and.

24
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 5: The Pacers did do some taking things last night we

25
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 5: can get into during that game.

26
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 3: Did as well, for sure they did.

27
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 5: Dude, I couldn't.

28
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: I had to true true story.

29
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: I fell asleep at the end of the second quarter

30
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: and didn't wake up till like midway through halftime. Okay,

31
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: And I thought, I thought in the third quarter that

32
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: am I looking at a summer league game?

33
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: Is this the NBA Summer League right now?

34
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 5: I texted Tony East at and let me actually just

35
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 5: pull it up. Okay, Okay, So I texted Tony East

36
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 5: last night. Tony was there, by the way, for those

37
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 5: you know, I know him and Dustin to peer. I

38
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 5: don't travel to every road game, but I texted Tony

39
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 5: at seven to fifteen pm. Okay, So what's that five

40
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 5: minutes into the game, I said to Tony, I go

41
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 5: on TV, this looks like an utterly horrific crowd. Am

42
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 5: I wrong? Tony's response, it's the smallest NBA crowd I've

43
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 5: ever seen. Wow, think about that.

44
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: It looked pretty sparse on TV.

45
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 5: Those small I mean, how many? How many NBA games?

46
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 5: I think Tony, he's has been doing a couple of hundred.

47
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, gotta be if not in a thousand.

48
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 5: The smallest. And James, you've covered the NBA. You've been

49
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 5: to arenas on nights when it's I've been there zero

50
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 5: degrees outside, when it's icy, when it's snowing. And yet

51
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 5: last night and I actually looked up the weather in Washington,

52
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 5: d C. It's a very nice day, kind of had

53
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 5: what we had before the you know, rain and storm.

54
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 3: They turned tornado watch for them.

55
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 5: No, they had a very nice day, the kind of

56
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 5: spring like February day. And yet that's the product on

57
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 5: the floor. So and also think it's difficult too of

58
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 5: like did Jarris Walker? Do we put stock into what

59
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 5: he did last night? Or is he playing against a

60
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 5: bunch of gais?

61
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: You can't you can't get mad at him for being successful.

62
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 5: Well, I'm not getting mad at him, but I'm like,

63
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 5: how do you evaluate him?

64
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 6: Yeah?

65
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 5: You know, I think that's all so difficult. So I'm

66
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 5: just glad tonight I don't have to watch that and

67
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 5: I can watch a basketball game in our state that

68
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 5: matters a whole lot to a lot of people.

69
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: But we can all agree that watching games from here

70
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: on out is it's not going to be fun, right,

71
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: it's going to be I know what we're doing.

72
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 2: I get it.

73
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: But let me just hold my nose and swallow the

74
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: medicine and hope that I get better in the end.

75
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: And then here's the other part.

76
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: We saw it in Philadelphia, We've seen it with other places. Now.

77
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: It's worked out occasionally for teams in different sports. But

78
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: there's no guarantee that even if you get the second, first, second,

79
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: third pick, that everything is honky Dorian.

80
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: You're just riding off into the sunset.

81
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: With championships, James, there's no guarantee that that's the way

82
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: it all plays out.

83
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 3: No, not at all.

84
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 4: So this is what you kind of have to, I

85
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 4: guess do to give yourself the best chance. But yeah,

86
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 4: it's been a unique season to sivil least for the Pacers, and.

87
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: More injuries Cam Jones or not Cam Jones, but you

88
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: go down with a backgun with Cam Jones right, and

89
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: Eric Neie Smith got an ankle sprain somewhere on there.

90
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: I have no idea who's going to be available and

91
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: play tonight. I think there's only eight of seventeen guys available.

92
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, aaron New Smith's ankle spray look like Max Bow

93
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 5: and crying because with tough the animals hit him. If

94
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 5: I'm gonna be fully honest, is it one of those

95
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 5: things with Smith's look, you know, Josh Korby and Rick

96
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 5: Carlisle like, wait, you're not letting me go back in

97
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 5: the game, really you're not. I mean, how many times

98
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 5: you have seen an NBA guy get hurt in a

99
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 5: game exit the arena with a boot?

100
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: Right?

101
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 5: By no accounts, Aeronice Smith exited the arena with a

102
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 5: boot last night, So I think that was the old

103
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 5: okay man, any sign of ailment. You're not playing back

104
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 5: in this game, and you're not gonna play tonight.

105
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 4: No, no, no, we have a big picture and aaron Ne Smith,

106
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 4: you got your money.

107
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 3: We're not getting rid of you.

108
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 7: Brother.

109
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 3: Let's take it tick the night off, the rest of

110
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 3: the night off.

111
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 4: I hope it is real quick though, and I guess it's

112
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 4: the more positive realm of the loss, as we always

113
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 4: talk about here, Jeff.

114
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 3: I thought Taylor Peter looked really good taking around the hell.

115
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 6: Out of it. Yeah.

116
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 4: I know that was his kind of his thing, you know,

117
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 4: coming out of college. But I thought he ye had

118
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 4: probably his best game as a pro, if not one

119
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 4: of his best.

120
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that's that's the whole thing. And and you're

121
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: happy for the individuals and you're doing well. But again,

122
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: uh Mark Deckton know, I'm curious because you've been watching

123
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: sports your all life too, when the Pacers actually took

124
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: that lead in the fourth quarter and you're thinking they

125
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: might win this game, because you can't tell those young

126
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: guys not to compete. They want to win, they want

127
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: to put good stuff on take right, they right, Johnson.

128
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 8: So you have to manipulate the lineups and everything like

129
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 8: that to get those losses.

130
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 6: Bile home.

131
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 5: Andrew Nemhard exits with five minutes to go in the

132
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 5: third quarter. You know what, Andrew, you just sit over

133
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 5: there for the rest of the night.

134
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: There.

135
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, your leg looks sore, you got cramps going.

136
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 5: We can't set in game tanking.

137
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: But the question mark is what were you experiencing and

138
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: feeling when the Pacers came back after being down I think,

139
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: what was it seventeen in the third quarter and they

140
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: take a one point lead, and for a second you're like, instinctively,

141
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: you're like yes, and then all of a sudden, the

142
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: breaks come on on the other side of your brain,

143
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: You're like, no.

144
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no no.

145
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 8: I was thinking, well, I guess we have to root

146
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 8: for Friday losses then and stuff. But now we got one.

147
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 8: Now can we get can we get back to back loss.

148
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 5: And not one ounce in Mark's body cared too too

149
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 5: much about the Pacers game last night.

150
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: He's moving to him and in the ago.

151
00:05:58,960 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: No.

152
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 5: Shout out to Ian Kelly at the shop, Mark Dyton,

Speaker 5: help them out in some way perform I know those

160
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 5: are excellent.

161
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 8: I tweeted as like, I just want one of these

162
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 8: for the sheer absurdity that we've gotten to this point

163
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 8: that these are actually realistic possibilities.

164
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 5: Here great idea of Yeah, Brian and company.

165
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 4: Mark, I was talking to the family yesterday. They're not

166
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 4: too pleased about the news, and I was trolling hard.

167
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 4: Oh the ham and Bears, two Indiana teams I was

168
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 4: giving them all the craft. Oh you can't even keep

169
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 4: one of the more iconic teams in your state, the

170
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 4: Charter franchise.

171
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 2: I know, I know.

172
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 4: So we'll see if we get the last laugh there.

173
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 4: And truly I'm rooting for it just because I want

174
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 4: to be petty to my family.

175
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 8: I was talking to Matt Bear upstairs, I was getting

176
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 8: a coffee today and he's like, I don't believe it

177
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 8: until there's a shovel in the ground.

178
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 3: I'm like, me too, Matt.

179
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 8: So we're on the same page there that will believe

180
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 8: it when there is a shovel in the ground.

181
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 6: Some thing.

182
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 3: Are me and Mark on duty for the shovels?

183
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: Now? Does that mean anybody?

184
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 9: So you know what, we get to construction moves back

185
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 9: that way later today after the show, so you let

186
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 9: me know.

187
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 4: I'll get this now shovel probably not the right purpose

188
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 4: for it, but I'll stab it in the ground and

189
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 4: establish some dominant.

190
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 8: I need you to go, like, do some sights seeing,

191
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 8: see if you can surveil through sights.

192
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure we have some construction helmets available

193
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: in this building.

194
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: For you guys.

195
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 8: Stand on top of one of the dunes and see

196
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 8: what we're looking at here.

197
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: They finally you know, we've all been waiting for like

198
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: eight weeks, but they finally came in through order. All

199
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: the TV lights are in for the YouTube crowd.

200
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know you can see you boy today.

201
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.

202
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 3: I mean I look good every day, but today I

203
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 3: look real.

204
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 7: You know.

205
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 2: I got his white tea shirt on. I should have

206
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: woren something darker.

207
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: You can save me now, all seriousness though, guys, I

208
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: was thinking about this this morning to driving in. I

209
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: don't want the Bears to not play in Chicago next

210
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: to the lake.

211
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 2: I don't want that to happen.

212
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 3: Man, I don't care less.

213
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 5: News to Arlington Heights ain't near.

214
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 3: That is true.

215
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 5: So if they're moving to Arlington Heights, that isn't going

216
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 5: to mapp.

217
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: I get to the beach front and I get it.

218
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I don't want them.

219
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 5: I'm Wolflak is crazy closer to a lake than anything

220
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 5: in Arlington Heights.

221
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 2: They got that crazy to make shoals.

222
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 5: Probably in Arlington Heights, in the backyards of some suburban homes.

223
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: They got the crazy spaceship dropped into the middle of

224
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: Soldier Field and as as gruesome as that was Mark

225
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: and I remember it was there. I did a game

226
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: there the first year that that had happened, and it

227
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: was the most bizarre thing I've ever seen.

228
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 2: But it just feels like the Bears belong playing in

229
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 2: that location.

230
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 8: Doesn't it mean more steam has been picked up for that,

231
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 8: considering how the playoff atmosphere was and everything. But they've

232
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 8: already purchased the land in Arlington Heights. They spent like

233
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 8: three hundred and seventy five million dollars of their own

234
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 8: money to buy that land. So I still think it

235
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 8: is a play to try to, you know, twist some

236
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 8: arms down at Illinois and Springfield. But again, when a

237
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 8: shovel is in the ground in ham in Indiana, I

238
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 8: will believe that they're moving there. But we have John

239
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 8: Greenberg joining us at now thirty to give us the

240
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 8: latest on the potential move of the Bears to Indiana.

241
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 8: By the way, do you guys see what Benedict Matherin

242
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 8: did last night in his debut with the Clippers?

243
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 4: Yes, thirty eight off the bench in a w and

244
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 4: I believe that tie his career high.

245
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, holding off home debut for him last night, but yes, yeah,

246
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 5: career high and they won over Denver team I was

247
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 5: playing dudes, which I hate that we have to like

248
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 5: throw in the caveat with NBA games nowadays, particularly this

249
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,079
Speaker 5: time of the year. But I almost feel like we

250
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 5: have to, Like, I mean, obviously, thirty eight is thirty eight.

251
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 5: I really don't care too much who you do that against,

252
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 5: but you know, you are kind of curious at times, like, okay,

253
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 5: well it's competition, and you know, I went back to

254
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 5: watch the highlights this morning. I mean that man is

255
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 5: getting the foul line with some big time plays late

256
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 5: in the game with Jokic with Murray and they beat

257
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 5: Denver last night. So Benaniic Matheren a massive scoring night

258
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 5: in his home debut with the Clippers.

259
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: Does this mean Kawhi Leonard is uh robin now to

260
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: Benedict Mather, he's.

261
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 5: A play in the game too, which is like twenty

262
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 5: three with you know, forty.

263
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 4: Was mentioned comments He was saying that he thinks tylerlu

264
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 4: could be one of his favorite people and and they

265
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 4: get along very well, and so I thought there was

266
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,199
Speaker 4: some you know, obviously nuance to that, but I think

267
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 4: he likes his fit early on and anytime he scored

268
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 4: thirty eight points.

269
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 3: You always gonna be happy after that.

270
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 5: They will play Indiana twice in March, so I know

271
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 5: we won't circle any if any games the rest of

272
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 5: the season for the Pacers, but those could be a

273
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 5: couple you circle for a guy on the other team.

274
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 3: Exactly, But I do want to. I know we gotta

275
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 3: get to a break.

276
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 4: But I mean, Jeff, the hockey, the hockey yesterday, Do

277
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 4: you care to elaborate a little bit for our listeners

278
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 4: because that was incredible.

279
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna go through details coming up. Mark, did we

280
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: do you have the gold medal highlight on that one?

281
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: The game winner? I do, all right, we'll hear that

282
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 1: coming up in the checkdown and ass and juices for

283
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: the second day in our own of course, yesterday was

284
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: for gold medal for Team USA's women. They're down and

285
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: they're the ones that have to tie it up with

286
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: a six on five late with an unb leavable tip

287
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: in goal by Hillary Knight. And let me tell you something.

288
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: I've been watching hockey a long time. The move that

289
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: was made by Megan Keller to get that last goal.

290
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 3: Man, that was like a crossover in basketball, ankle breaker.

291
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 2: That was big time. I don't care who you are.

292
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: Sweet. That was big time. And so for the second

293
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: day in a row, well two days ago, I said

294
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: a really dirty word when the other team tied the

295
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: game up. I was getting just flat out nervous as

296
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 1: the clock started to tick down and tick down and

297
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: tick down, because the scary part about that game was

298
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: for most of the game Kevin Canada I thought was

299
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: the better team for most of the game, and the

300
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: USA just hung in and hung in. They got it

301
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: tied up and then they were it was. It was

302
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: only four minutes of overtime, but it was all Team

303
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: USA and overtime. It was all Team USA and overt Yes.

304
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, that was fun. And for those who can't

305
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: see on the YouTube chat today, I am once again

306
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: busting out the Team USA hockey sweater. Today's white. Wore

00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: Good morning everyone, Welcome to your Friday.

319
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: It's the Fan Morning Show along with James Boyd and

320
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen and Mark Dikdon who's ready to move to Hammon, Indiana.

321
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: I'm jeff Rickord. Let's get it go on. The Washington

322
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 1: Wizard somehow survived a comeback by the Indiana Pacers last night.

323
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 2: Went at one twelve to one oh five. Somehow.

324
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: Here's your starting five last night for the Washington Wizards.

325
00:12:54,280 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: Tristan vukas At Vospitch, Kashawn George, Bob Carrington, Bill all

326
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: cool A Bally, Trey Johnson. That's what the Pacers were

327
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: up against last night. They counted with Jeris Walker, Jay Hoff,

328
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: Andrew Nemhard who left the or not Andrew Thembarbert Aaron

329
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 1: Nee Smith who left the game later with an ankle.

330
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 2: Spring Kevin and Ben Shepherd who have Ben had.

331
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: A nice night last night. I thought he was okay.

332
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: That was it. Those were your starting fives last night

333
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: and it got better from there.

334
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just a sad, sad reality. Again, as I

335
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 5: shared earlier, I thought it was one of the worst

336
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 5: NBA crowds I've ever seen in my life. And there

337
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 5: are several times I watched the game thoughts myself, is

338
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 5: there something else I could be doing better with my time?

339
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: I think James that there was a promotion going on

340
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: in Washington last night. You buy a ticket, you get

341
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: your own section for free. How that worked last night?

342
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 2: Aaron Nesmith springs and ankle.

343
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 1: Cam Jones hurts back to what extent we don't know, Kevin,

344
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: but it's another I guess reason to trot out the

345
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: summer league team tonight.

346
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 5: Thought Rick Carlos that afterwards he would play tonight? I

347
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 5: thought so the extent I think we do know, Rick

348
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 5: Carlo didn't think he would be out. That's part of

349
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 5: the reason I guess why they took him out last

350
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 5: night to get some treatment and that he'd be ready

351
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 5: to go for tonight. Where's Aaron E. Smith will not

352
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 5: play tonight? Doesn't sound like Pascal Siakam will either, And

353
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 5: again the end game tanking, I'm kind of curious how

354
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 5: the Pacers will operate in that manner. They certainly did.

355
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 5: Andrew Nemhart left with five minutes still in the third

356
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 5: quarter on a night when you had I think one

357
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 5: of their highest turnover nights of the entire year. They

358
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 5: did not put their point guard back in the game.

359
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 5: So and look, I don't blame him, but you know,

360
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 5: this is just the reality of where they're at right now.

361
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: Same two teams tonight, seven o'clock tips six thirty year

362
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: time here at ninety three to five and one on

363
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: seven five the fan also James, every morning I do

364
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: a different simulated lottery on Tankathon.

365
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 2: It is time you ready. Today is Friday, Give me

366
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: some good, feel good Friday.

367
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: Pacers were sixth today and the Washington Wizards this morning

368
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: on Tankathon had the number one pick in the random

369
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: simulated lottery.

370
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: Yourself. That's a kicking across right there.

371
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: I will tell you this. After that game last night,

372
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: the Pacers now have the second worst record in the

373
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: league and the Wizards have the fifth worst record in

374
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: the league. Just on that one game.

375
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 3: Wow, that's crazy. Well one actually get into this, I believe.

376
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 4: ESPN sham Sharani reported some updates as far as what

377
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 4: the league wants to do or it's contemplating doing, to

378
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 4: go against tanking. So I thought that was very interesting

379
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 4: and obviously very pertinent to what the Pacers have going on.

380
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of ideas being thrown out there, but

381
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: I don't know any hard facts. What is going to

382
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: look like at this point in time? All right? Also,

383
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: Mark Dyke and the Chicago Bears, who are trying for

384
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: a new stadium quote, took a meaningful step forward unquote yesterday,

385
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: opening the door for the franchise to check out of

386
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: Illinois and maybe build a new domed stadium in northwest Indiana.

387
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 2: If you build it, they will come.

388
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: If they build a dome stadium in Hammond, will you

389
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: be able to see that thing from like fifteen miles

390
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: in old directions?

391
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 3: Probably?

392
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 8: I saw some local radio hosts went out there and

393
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 8: they were like, you could still see the skyline.

394
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 3: It's way out there. You could still see the Willis Tower.

395
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, it's there.

396
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: Indiana lawmakers in the State House Ways and Means Committee

397
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: unanimously approved an amendment to Indiana State Bill twenty seven

398
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: by a vote of twenty four to nothing. You want

399
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: to talk about uniting politicians James there.

400
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 4: It is trying to bring some money, I suppose to

401
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 4: the state. But it's a very interesting proposition, and we

402
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 4: will actually have John Greenberg, who is a Chicago columnist

403
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 4: for The Athletic, on later today a nine o'clock hour

404
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 4: to discuss it further.

405
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: All right, That bill, by the way, would create the

406
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 1: Northwest Indiana Stadium Authority with the power to issue bonds,

407
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: acquire land, and finance construction for the stadium.

408
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: We will keep our ears on that one.

409
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: Also, hockey Team USA's women scored on a six on

410
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: five redirect from captain Hillary Knight to tie Team Canada

411
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: one to one with less than two minutes to go

412
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: in the regulation, and then three on three overtime mark the.

413
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 7: Albut Pastor Calorid Defectsman.

414
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 11: High School cuts to the overcome.

415
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 5: Here the United States.

416
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: Its god perfect description on the gold medal winning goal, James,

417
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: you said it was like.

418
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 2: A nasty crossover in basketball. Hit what the Allen Ivers said.

419
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 4: I was like, oh my gosh, that that was incredible theater,

420
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 4: I must say, And honestly, have you ever felt a

421
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 4: moment like that? I mean, my goodness, I would want

422
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 4: to just I feel like I would be happy with

423
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 4: my life. I'll prabayly float out of the arena, build

424
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 4: a statue right now.

425
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 3: We're legends, Christy stuff.

426
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: You see Tmusa's coach like instantly burst into tears of joy.

427
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 2: Do you see that?

428
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 6: That was cool.

429
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 4: That's one of the cool thought that was cool about

430
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 4: hockey in my opinion, is that even like in basketball,

431
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 4: which is usually what I watch and you go to overtime,

432
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 4: there isn't always the walk off effect, but that part

433
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 4: of it makes it so much crazier because one moment

434
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 4: you're in it, the next moment you're on top of

435
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 4: the world, or if you're Canada, you're feeling it in

436
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 4: that moment. So that was crazy.

437
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 6: Yeah.

438
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 1: And Kevin, you look over at the Canadian bench and

439
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: there's people that just have their hearts just ripped out

440
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:00,439
Speaker 1: of their ch KB.

441
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 3: Was like, that's for your curling cheater.

442
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 12: Yeah.

443
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 5: And honestly, I'm reminded this. I think every Olympic cycle

444
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 5: and the quad god was won last week that I

445
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 5: was really reminded by just how much individual I know,

446
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,239
Speaker 5: as a team sport we watched last night, but how

447
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 5: much individual pressure are on these athletes. Oh yes, I

448
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 5: mean you have your true glory once every four years,

449
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 5: and when you choke Allah the quad God you see

450
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 5: it all play out. So and for those that don't

451
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 5: really follow I guess women's hockey, you know, USA Canada

452
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 5: is the rivalry. Honestly, it's a little like Colts Patriots

453
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 5: is kind of how I've been doing a little bit

454
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 5: more background on it of you know, they've been the

455
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 5: team that's kind of always been the thorn in the

456
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 5: side of the United States. Allah the Patriots and fitting

457
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 5: lead two thousand and six AFC title game to get

458
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 5: to the mountaintop. You were down twenty one three in

459
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 5: that game. Yesterday you're down one. Oh, you're on the

460
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 5: brink of elimination, and Hillary Knight, the one that you

461
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 5: know is the captain and the US leaguing scorer, gets

462
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 5: in it overtime and then the rest is history. Off

463
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 5: of that, well, Marlin's got it right there. From Kenny

464
00:18:58,640 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 5: Albert on the call.

465
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 4: One more quick thing on that when it comes to

466
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 4: Hockey's really Olympic sports is you can be the world

467
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 4: champion in a different year.

468
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 3: And it's like, I don't want to say, no one

469
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 3: cares because obviously to the world doesn't care, right.

470
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 4: And so that's what makes it harder to me, because

471
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 4: for example, about the quad god, he hadn't lost in

472
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 4: two years. But everyone's like, well, you know, in a way,

473
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 4: it's almost like you'd rather lose one of the world

474
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 4: championships and win the Olympics.

475
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 2: But that's not how it works in the sports.

476
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 4: So when you get to the mountaintop, you certainly get

477
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 4: to enjoy it, and that's what they'll be doing for

478
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 4: a long time, your legends forever when you can crown

479
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 4: an Olympic champion.

480
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: I will also tell you that Alyssa Lou wins gold

481
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 1: medal in women's figure skating, And look, I don't watch

482
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: figure skating for anything other than the Olympics, right, But

483
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: my mom was a huge figure skating Olympics person. My

484
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 1: wife is a huge figure skating person all the time.

485
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 2: So I've seen a lot of them in my life.

486
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: Right. That performance by Alyssa Lou yesterday is as good

487
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: a performance as I've ever seen in my life. You

488
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: want to talk about coming through in the club, smooth, perfect,

489
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: everything was exactly on point, man, So good job out

490
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: of her. USA wins the gold medal there today the

491
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: men take on Slovakia at three ten.

492
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 2: It's a semi final.

493
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 1: You win this one, you guarantee yourself a medal, and

494
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: if you win it.

495
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 2: You also go play for the gold medal.

496
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 3: Got to get it done.

497
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 2: So looking forward to that, I guess.

498
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: We'll see. No, I guess you wouldn't necessarily guarantee you

499
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: metal because if you lost the next game, you'd lose

500
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: out on the bronze too, So I can't say that.

501
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 5: But well, if you win, you're guaranteed gold or silver.

502
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 2: Right, yes, if you win, well, then get it done.

503
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 5: Baby. Slovakia is not as good as Sweden, right yep.

504
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: So we say, look, these are the types of teams

505
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 1: that scare me because they're playing for.

506
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 3: You, Jeff little nervous day, and they got nothing to lose.

507
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 3: Book your opponents K definitely to mention.

508
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 5: Tonight up in Mackie, Indiana, Purdue eight o'clock. I again

509
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 5: can't wait for this one. I mean, this one actually

510
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 5: matters from a basketball standpoint in the state, based off

511
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 5: what we witnessed last night in the NBA. So really

512
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 5: really looking forward to it. I think the psyche of

513
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 5: the teams are much different, but very curious to see

514
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 5: how Perdue responds, especially after Indiana, of course, beat them

515
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 5: down inside of Assembly Hall. You guys care to take

516
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 5: a stab? Have you guys seen the spread of this one?

517
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 3: I actually have not.

518
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: I'll take a guess I have not seen it. I'm

519
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: going to say eight.

520
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 6: And a half.

521
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 3: I'll go a little bit closer. I'll say four and

522
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 3: a half.

523
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 5: Perdue opened at ten and a half.

524
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 3: Wow, I'm much a little surprised by that.

525
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was a little surprised by that big of

526
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 5: a number.

527
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 3: You know.

528
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 5: Weirdly, Perdue hasn't been great great at home this Season's granted, Lauren,

529
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 5: they have obviously lost to some very good teams inside

530
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 5: of that building. So we'll see how that goes. Eight

531
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 5: o'clock Fox, Gus Johnson, Steve Smith on the call. Of course,

532
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 5: WIBC will have our coverage starting at seven o'clock.

533
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, And the scary part about those lines is sometimes

534
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: ten and a half really means it's a seven point game,

535
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 1: but at the very end, the last couple of minutes,

536
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: there's free throws that get taken, and all of a sudden,

537
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: that line goes not that line, but that score goes

538
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 1: from like seven to eleven.

539
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, all, Lamar Wilkerson hits one and now it

540
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 5: goes from eleven day eight and now you're happy.

541
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 2: Right, we'll report back on Monday, see what happens.

542
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: Right. Also, James, before we head out, I know we're

543
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: a little bit late, but the girl semi State starts

544
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: this weekend.

545
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, huge matchup.

546
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 4: I believe it's the Jasper location for four A is

547
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 4: the big one where you have Lawrence North and Center

548
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 4: Grove I mean Lawrence Senthro, I'm sorry.

549
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 3: That's led by ol Lamfley.

550
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 4: The McDonald's all American on one side of the bracket,

551
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 4: and then you have Center Grove, which is undefeated. So

552
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 4: I believe if both teams win their first game, they

553
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 4: will meet up in the championship game that night for

554
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,719
Speaker 4: a trip to State. So to all the girls out

555
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 4: there competing this weekend, have fun with it me because

556
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 4: I never made that for my life as far as

557
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 4: trying to get some hardware, So it should be a

558
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 4: lot of yelling, a lot of craziness in those gyms,

559
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 4: but a lot of fun.

560
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 6: All right.

561
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: We will continue to talk about the internal conflict that

562
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 1: we're all experiencing with the pacers and how they play

563
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: basketball games, and Mark is already putting in orders for

564
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: Hammond Bear's paraphernalia.

565
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 3: I want it at the station by today. How's that happen.

566
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: We'll talk about it all next. It's ninety three five

567
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 1: and one on seven to five of the Fan. Good morning, everyone,

568
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: Welcome into a Friday at the Fan morning show. And

569
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:19,919
Speaker 1: we talked about a little bit of top of the

570
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 1: show for those just joining us. I think we're all

571
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: feeling these very conflicted things. We talk about this new

572
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: day and age of sports where players are getting millions

573
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: of dollars in college sports, God bless them, whatever, but

574
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: they're all transferring from year to year, and do people stay,

575
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: do they leave? Do they go somewhere else? And we're

576
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: kind of wrapping our brains around that. And here in

577
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: Indiana where we've always been ultra competitive in basketball, particularly

578
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,639
Speaker 1: professional basketball, where the Pacers always find a way to

579
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: outperform expectations right and maybe not have won that title yet,

580
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: but they always are there fighting it out, and they

581
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: always put together a team that's fighting out. And now

582
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: they're actively trying not to win basketball games, not the

583
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: players themselves, the players they go out, they're playing to

584
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: your point, James. They're playing for jobs next year, rightly,

585
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: what the.

586
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 4: Ones playing yesterday they have trying to audition for the

587
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 4: rest of the league.

588
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: Right But Kevin, you were talking about the fact that

589
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: that ankle injury suffered by Nie Smith last night. In

590
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: most cases, you spit on it, you rub some dirt

591
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: on it, and you send him back out there. Right now,

592
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: it could be a week ten days before we see

593
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 1: him again.

594
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 5: Well, the Andrew Nemhard thing was probably the most egregious

595
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 5: of last night. If you wanted to see end game tanking.

596
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 5: And again, what was the final turnover number? Had to

597
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 5: be north of twenty There was a million of them

598
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 5: last night for the Pacers. So in one of your

599
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 5: highest turnover games of the season.

600
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 3: You're twenty three kb.

601
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 5: I mean, that's an absurd number. Your point guard leaves

602
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 5: with five minutes to go in the third quarter, doesn't

603
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 5: re enter the game.

604
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: But is that the kind of thing that the Commission's

605
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: talk about where he's gonna find you again?

606
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 5: Well, see, I mean, you know, obviously the Jazz had

607
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 5: some of that that they did. Now, again, the Jazz

608
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 5: were multiple offenders, and I guess the Pacers are now

609
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 5: an offender and the NBA, you know's eyes. So yeah,

610
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 5: it just I watched last night. Frankly, just not discussed

611
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 5: at the Pacers. Of course the situation. You have to

612
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 5: play the game. But I'm just so glad that tonight

613
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 5: at eight o'clock there's actually a game in our state

614
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 5: that matters in basketball and I don't have to fake

615
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 5: watch Pacers Wizards for a second night.

616
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,959
Speaker 4: Well, I do know that will certainly be on all

617
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 4: of our screens I think later today, and that is

618
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 4: a game, like you said, Kevin, that you have to,

619
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 4: you know, tape the eyeballs open and watch. But in

620
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 4: regards to the tanking, this is what Seam Sarani reported

621
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 4: from ESPN, and he mentioned yesterday that Commissioner Adam Silver

622
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 4: informed the league's thirty general managers on Thursday that the

623
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 4: NBA plans to make anti tanking rule changes for next season.

624
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 4: So this necessarily would not affect the Pacers because of

625
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 4: where they are right now in the standing and where

626
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 4: they are for prep the upcoming drafts to get a

627
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,679
Speaker 4: top four pick, so this would not affect them. But

628
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,199
Speaker 4: in lieu of what has happened with the Pacers, with

629
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 4: the Jazz, with the Wizards last not other teams. Some

630
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 4: of the theories that they said that they've discussed already,

631
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 4: according to sham Serania, was first round picks can only

632
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 4: be protected in the top four or the top fourteen.

633
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sorry, between one and four or fourteen

634
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 4: and up. Lottery odds freeze at the trade deadline or

635
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 4: a later date, no longer allowing a team to pick

636
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 4: the top four consecutive seasons or after consecutive bottom three finishes.

637
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 4: Teams can't pick a top four the year after making

638
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 4: the conference finals.

639
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 1: That's the Indiana Pacers rule right there. Could they have

640
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: been more specific?

641
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 4: I mean when I saw that one, I was like, oh, okay,

642
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 4: that's kind of crazy. And then lottery odds allocated based

643
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 4: on two year records. That is something that is similar

644
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 4: to how like the WNBA does it.

645
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 3: I believe they landed.

646
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 4: I want to say, the backpack number one picks with

647
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,919
Speaker 4: a Leah Boston and then Caitlin Clark, and it was

648
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 4: based off of your two year record, and then the

649
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 4: last one they had on the list where or last

650
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 4: two lottery gets extended into include all playing teams, which

651
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 4: I would not be a fan of that. And then

652
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 4: you also have flattening the odds for all lottery teams

653
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 4: if you don't make the playoffs. So, I mean, I

654
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 4: know it's a lot to digest for the listeners for

655
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 4: you all here, but in particular when you hear the

656
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 4: no longer allowed to pick in the top four in

657
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 4: consecutive years, I'm sorry, no longer allowed to pick in

658
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 4: the top four after making the conference finals. That is,

659
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,199
Speaker 4: to Jeff's point, it seems like the Pacers rule. But

660
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 4: given the Pacers circumstances this year, I don't think that

661
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 4: that necessarily would be very fair at all. I mean,

662
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 4: if you are in the conference finals in theory and

663
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 4: you're in your in the position for a top four

664
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 4: pick the next year, that means you're you're you had

665
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 4: catastrophic injuries. If you think about it, like, there's no

666
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 4: way a team that has made it that far the

667
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 4: year before will be that bad the next year, unless

668
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 4: things went horribly wrong, which they have this year. The

669
00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 4: Pacers were never supposed to have a top four pick

670
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 4: to begin with. It kind of just manifested itself as

671
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 4: bodies kept dropping on the floor.

672
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 3: So your thoughts on that.

673
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: I think you put it, well, how do you penalize

674
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: a team because they had a bunch of injuries. I

675
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 1: couldn't believe real injuries that that have consequences.

676
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, and honestly, when you when I hear that list,

677
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 5: I just hear a lot of kicking the can you

678
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 5: know down the street almost of like, okay, so you said, James,

679
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 5: one of them would be you flatten the odds for

680
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 5: all teams in the lottery. So that means you just

681
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 5: have teams in the back end of the playoff picture tank, right,

682
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 5: you know, you would take in different ways. I guess

683
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 5: you know when you mentioned you can't have back to

684
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 5: back years of top four picks, well, then the teams

685
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 5: would just try to, you know whatever, get to the

686
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 5: fifth or sixth spot and then you know, be good there.

687
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 5: It is wild to think about it from an Indiana

688
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 5: fever standpoint, you know, can you imagine if you couldn't

689
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 5: have back to back years of top four picks and

690
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 5: Caitlin Clark was the year after Aliah Boston. Obviously, the

691
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 5: Pacers one is laughable for everything that you just laid

692
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 5: out there. And I do think you know you're probably

693
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 5: you're probably only about a monthference from the Benedict Mather

694
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 5: or excuse me for the the tyres Haliburton e Achilles

695
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 5: possibly being different. You know, take Boston for example, Tatum

696
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 5: Toria about a month earlier. Is Haliburton trying to play now?

697
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,479
Speaker 5: Given the Pacers a record? The answer is probably no.

698
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 5: But let's say the Pacers don't have as bad of

699
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 5: injury luck. You know, is there any sort of push

700
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 5: to play Halliburton. Let's say you were five hundred right now,

701
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 5: you know, would there be any of that? Obviously Boston

702
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 5: has Jalen Brown, so you know, I don't I don't

703
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 5: know if the Pacers would have been in the same boat.

704
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 5: But yeah, that is a thought that I had as well.

705
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would agree there, Kevin.

706
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 4: But again, I mean just the sheer amount of injuries,

707
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 4: like for example, I wonder if you could like appeal

708
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 4: something like that, because that's such a hard and fast rule.

709
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 4: I mean, and again, these are all theoretical. These are

710
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 4: not sett in stone. The thing's been officially agreed upon yet.

711
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 4: But if that were to happen, I wonder if you

712
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 4: can go to the league and say, okay, we didn't

713
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 4: we made it to the conference finals, and then every

714
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 4: player that played significant minutes in that got hurt. So,

715
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 4: I mean, it will be outrage goal lore around I

716
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 4: think that topic with the league.

717
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 3: So we'll see what comes of this.

718
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 4: But I will say it sounds like, at least in

719
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 4: my opinion, you all that this is the loudest chatter

720
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 4: we've heard about tanking since basically teams have done it,

721
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 4: at least in my time watching the NBA, because I remember,

722
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 4: like the process with Joel Embiid and the Sixers tried

723
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 4: to lose every single year.

724
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 3: For like three years.

725
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 1: How's that working out for them?

726
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, to be honest, Jeff, it worked

727
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 4: out fairly well at the time when they were doing it.

728
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 4: I mean, they got Ben Simmons out of the league

729
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 4: at the time they got him, they got Joel Embiid,

730
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 4: and they were, like I want to say, they were

731
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 4: maybe like a kawhal inerd game winner away in Game

732
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 4: seven a few years ago from being possibly going to

733
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 4: the finals. I mean not saying that series would have

734
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 4: put you in the finals, but they were a contender

735
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 4: because of how they built their roster through the draft.

736
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: And again to me, or if you do all that

737
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: and you do anything less than a title, it hasn't worked.

738
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, But Okay, I'll play devil's advocate here, Jeff. What

739
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 4: if it doesn't work for the Pacers, but you still

740
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 4: want to try, right, Like if you don't win a title,

741
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 4: Like let's say that the Pacers get the number one pick,

742
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 4: they get Darren Peterson, Ah of the Bands and whoever,

743
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 4: pick your choice, and they get in two years, they're

744
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 4: back in the finals and they lose.

745
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 3: Would you say it was a failure to do that?

746
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: I will concede. If they get to the finals, you're

747
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: giving yourself a chance.

748
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 4: But my point is, and again the Philly thing is

749
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 4: like just tangential. My point is, you do it to

750
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 4: gain a lot of talent. And before Ben Simmons had

751
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 4: the back injuries and all that and got the I

752
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 4: don't know what is it, the yips without shooting the basketball,

753
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 4: he was viewed as a perennial All Star, a All

754
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 4: NBA caliber talent. And that's what you're trying to get

755
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 4: if you are the Pacers and Aja Bandza, Darren Peterson,

756
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 4: you know, the Boozers, Son and things like that.

757
00:31:58,840 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 3: Okayleb Wilson.

758
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 4: So yeah, again this isn't going away. So I'm very

759
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 4: curious to see where this all stands after the season,

760
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 4: but for.

761
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 3: The PACER's purposes.

762
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 4: Look, they're not trying to be bad next year anyway,

763
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 4: so maybe you dodged the bullet.

764
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 5: What do you guys expect tonight in mackiw.

765
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 4: I'm a little on edge, I guess more if I'm

766
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 4: I'm a Purdue fan, just because the team hasn't been

767
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 4: where it needs to be in my opinion.

768
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 2: And so I use credit.

769
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 4: They've really competed against Purdue fairly well over the last

770
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 4: four years, Like during this produce senior class, I thought

771
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 4: I was kind of hung with them, honestly, and that's

772
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 4: kind of been like a thrown in their side. So

773
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 4: as far as dominant as Purdue has been in the

774
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 4: program compared to IU in the last you know, several years,

775
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 4: I still think they're true rivals in a sense because

776
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 4: they're they're kind of even whenever they play each other.

777
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: I expect Purdue to take out a lot of stuff

778
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: on Indiana tonight. I do. I expect them to be

779
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: in control of this game and win it. But I

780
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: also will tell you, if I'm Darren Derez, I'm looking

781
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: at my team going, guys, you have a tremendous opportunity

782
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: here tonight as a program. You know you can beat

783
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: this team, right, we just did it. Now can you

784
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: go on the road get a win over a team

785
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: that was the preseason number one and is still on

786
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: the two line. And most bracketologists like for him to

787
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: put this team together and it still has a lot

788
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: of flaws, and it's a brand new team and a

789
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: brand new system and a brand new everything. You want

790
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 1: to talk about being able to propel the program forward.

791
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: If you could sweep Purdue and get a win tonight

792
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: in February on the road, that's just a big building

793
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 1: block for the future. I think it's a great opportunity

794
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: for Indiana, but I do expect Purdue to be Purdue

795
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: in this game tonight.

796
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm very curious, like how much of the Michigan

797
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 5: hangover is there any at all? I mean, I would

798
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 5: think emotionally that was just a huge game. Get number

799
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 5: one in your building. Obviously this is your rival. James

800
00:33:56,640 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 5: pointed out, you know very well the struggles that weirdly

801
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 5: the Braden Smith Fletcher lawyer class have had against Indiana

802
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 5: despite an incredible four years that they've had in West Lafayette.

803
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 5: You know, I look back at the first beating. One

804
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 5: of the biggest outliers was the fact that you know,

805
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 5: Braiden Smith had one of his quieter games production wise,

806
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 5: uh and Joe Dirt. You know en Right, he was

807
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,760
Speaker 5: a bulldog on him. And you know he played every

808
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 5: single minute in that first matchup and wildly was not

809
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 5: whistled for a single foul. It's the only game all

810
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 5: year Conoran Right fouls. For those that haven't been following along,

811
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 5: he fouls more than any guard in the Big Ten.

812
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,280
Speaker 5: He's fouled out of a handful of games this season.

813
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 5: His you know, ability to stay on the floor is

814
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 5: a question mark.

815
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 3: Well, he sounds like your boy when I play with

816
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 3: JAMV on Sundays. So and that was a need these games,

817
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 3: by the way, continue that was a.

818
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 5: Huge element in Indiana all on both ends. You know,

819
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 5: Enwright was distributing it very well in that game in

820
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 5: Assembly Hall as well. So that to me, you know,

821
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 5: the paint crew is gonna hate him, you know, a

822
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 5: minute end of the game tonight, and I'll be curious,

823
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,919
Speaker 5: you know exactly how I guess he can just stay

824
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 5: in the game from a fouling standpoint, because that has

825
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 5: been a question Mark with him and what happened in

826
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 5: the first half on Tuesday night. You know Braden Smith

827
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 5: was scoreless, and so you know, what does the start

828
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 5: look like for Purdue in this matchup? Obviously Nick Doran

829
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 5: was huge in that first game down there in Bloomington.

830
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 5: He has really struggled. Do you look at that as

831
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 5: water has found its level or do you look at

832
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 5: that as hey, this guy's due for a game. So

833
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 5: you know that will be I think a big, big

834
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 5: part of this game as well.

835
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 4: Quick question KB and Jeff as well, what do you

836
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 4: think the ceiling is for this Purdue team right now

837
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 4: as currently constructed? You know there were preseason number one.

838
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 4: We know this is Braiden Smith last year, and that

839
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 4: program is still chasing the national championship. So what's a

840
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 4: successful year if you're being realistic.

841
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think anything short of winning it all would

842
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,399
Speaker 5: be disappointing in people's eyes. Wow, I think that's I mean,

843
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 5: you've gotten to the championship game, so they've created that

844
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 5: like it's it's a compliment. I think when you say

845
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 5: it like that, I just that's how I would view it. Obviously,

846
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 5: they're going to go down as one of if not

847
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 5: the greatest classes ever to put on a Preduye uniform. Frankly,

848
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 5: there'll be one of the more decorated classes ever in

849
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 5: the Big Ten, particularly if they get to another Final four.

850
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 5: So yeah, I just you know, I would say that

851
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 5: about Notre Dame football. Get into the National Championship Game

852
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 5: two years ago. You know, like, once you get there,

853
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 5: you know it's the Colts with the Patriots, you know,

854
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 5: a decade ago. That's just you know, that's how it is.

855
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,800
Speaker 5: How did you talk about it from the Pacers just

856
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 5: a few minutes ago. You've gotten to Game seven. Now

857
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 5: it's about winning it all. You don't trade Benedict mather

858
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 5: In two first round picks for Vitza Zubots if you

859
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 5: don't think that you're trying to win it all. So

860
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 5: that's how I would view now. I think it's very difficult.

861
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 5: I think this college basketball season has turned into much

862
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 5: more of a different year than we thought. I mean,

863
00:36:55,520 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 5: Michigan is one of the best programs, one of the

864
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 5: best seasons we've seen in years.

865
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks awfully good the other night.

866
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 4: I mean, in my opinion, when I watch them, you

867
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 4: all part of me is like to beat them.

868
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 3: You need them to have.

869
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,919
Speaker 4: A so soo night, which on most nights just probably

870
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,839
Speaker 4: still good enough to win for them. And you got

871
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 4: to be bawling, like there is very small room for

872
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 4: error against a team like that because of how they're constructed,

873
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 4: and honestly, the STIs factor. I mean, you give yourself

874
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 4: so many more chances because you're altering shots on one

875
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 4: end and you're grabbing a bunch of boards on both

876
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 4: ends to give yourself extra opportunities to score. So I'm

877
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 4: very interested again to see how this plays out down

878
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 4: the stretch, and we're getting closer to that time where

879
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 4: I think.

880
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,760
Speaker 2: It can be cruel in sports in a way.

881
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 6: But.

882
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 3: Legacies kind of get decided in March.

883
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 6: Well you know what I mean.

884
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 5: I thought Matt Sayer actually said that in different words

885
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 5: on Tuesday night. The ultimate test will be the NCAA tournament. Yeah,

886
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 5: because up until this point of the season, it probably

887
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,919
Speaker 5: has not gone the way Purdue fans thought it would go. Now,

888
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 5: you know, and that's the case when you're preseason ranked

889
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 5: number one, but you know, no one thought what three

890
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 5: home losses, two of them by double digits. You know,

891
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 5: already losing to Indiana will obviously see what happens tonight.

892
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,839
Speaker 5: So I can't wait though, because Indiana, you know, from

893
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 5: a pure resume standpoint, the game means more to them.

894
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 5: They need one more and you know, if you look

895
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,439
Speaker 5: at their final five, one more big one. I guess

896
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 5: I should preface by if you look at their final

897
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 5: five games, they've got a couple of coin flips that

898
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 5: would fall into that category of Michigan State next week,

899
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 5: I want to say it's Ohio State maybe to end

900
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 5: the season on the road. Those are more of the

901
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 5: realistic coin This is the hardest of the final five games.

902
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 5: But again, anytime these two teams meet, it gets circled

903
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 5: on the Bowen calendar, And thank the Lord, I don't

904
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 5: have to watch Pacers and Wizards tonight.

905
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. To your point, kJ from Brownsburg textan and says,

906
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: could this IU win be a ticket to March? I

907
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: think absolutely. There are still paths for them to get there,

908
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: and I think it's more like Lee that they'll ultimately

909
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: end up there. But a win tonight they're in. Don't

910
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:04,439
Speaker 1: you think?

911
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:05,439
Speaker 5: Yes?

912
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 1: I would agree with that all right, So you can

922
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,960

925
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 3: Roger don't care. Rogers want that money sink.

Speaker 5: Roger wants a new stadium, right Yeah.

927
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's rooting for the quickest paths to getting that.

928
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 4: But yeah, looking forward to talking to Zach later on,

929
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 4: and I'll definitely give him some grief because you know,

930
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 4: as much as he talks about covering the Olympics, he

931
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 4: better be there at the combine.

932
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 5: Don't forget what by the way, you see the electricity

933

Speaker 5: in the curling match to end it yesterday.

934
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 2: Missed that one I was I was otherwise so enlightened

935
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 2: me a little bit.

936
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 5: An incredible shot.

937
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 13: Uh.

938
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 5: Tabitha Peterson, goat, you guys have named Megan Keller. You

939
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 5: guys have named Hillary Knight. Tabitha Peterson with an epic

940
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 5: shot to send us into the semi finals for the

941
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 5: first time in the history of women's curling.

942
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 13: Uh.

943
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 5: And now we play for a metal today. I believe

944
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 5: we have the Swiss again. And I think it's happening now.

945
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 5: So I'll let you guys. We got to get it

946
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,720
Speaker 5: up on the TV then carry the load for the

947
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 5: final two hours. I don't know. I was watching you

948
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 5: try to work with the TV yesterday.

949
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: I got a tutorial yesterday after the show.

950
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 5: Looked like my dad trying to dial up the internet.

951
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: They got brand new TVs in here, but they give

952
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 1: me a tutorial on how are things working? Yes looking

953
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: the same way I got.

954
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,399
Speaker 5: Shades of gray were on the TV at one point. Yeah,

955
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 5: and I say that in all seriousness, sadly.

956
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 1: You know it was a It was a freeze frame

957
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: promo for the movie.

958
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 3: Jeff was not, you know, clicking too much on those things.

959
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,760
Speaker 3: Our HR meeting waiting to happen. If you guys are watching.

960
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 9: Fifty this week, we all just did the training, didn't

961
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 9: we I know, I know all the rules on hour crossing.

962
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 5: The training was longer than a curling match.

963
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:09,479
Speaker 1: That is true, not nearly as entertaining either.

964
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 2: All right, had it done?

965
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 3: No, we'd like having jobs, right.

966
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 1: Greig Ragstraw. On the other side, it's ninety three five

967
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: and one on seven five the fan.

968
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 14: Come on, you were listening to a fan morning show

969
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 14: on sports radio.

970
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: Ninety three five and one oh seven.

Speaker 3: Now it's downtown clubb.

973
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 1: You always turn us into you and Mark turned us

974
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: into a club fan. I like that.

975
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that.

976
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 4: Hey, Mark, get you brinking it down? That Santannah trying

977
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:52,240
Speaker 4: to think.

978
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, Cameron and Joelsontanna.

979
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 5: I will reiterate to the crib baby later Mark, Yeah,

00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 5: it is Friday.

982
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:05,720
Speaker 1: It is Friday.

983
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,840
Speaker 2: Does that mean Greg Rakestraw just after eight o'clock?

984
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: Is that what that means? Mark Dugton, No better time

985
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 1: of the week is the man and he joins us

986
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: now on the Payless Liquors Hotline. He needs no introduction,

987
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 1: although we could give him a lengthy one. Greg, Are

988
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 1: you like me? Are you getting used to having really

989
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: cool sports on TV at three o'clock in the afternoon

990
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: and weekdays, I have.

991
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 15: Been watching the Curling Channel twenty four to seven, you

992
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,399
Speaker 15: and Kevin for the last eleven days.

993
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 1: Yes, Were you as fired up yesterday as Kevin was

994
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 1: for the women's curling Well, I.

995
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 15: Mean they went to an extra end. I mean the

996
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 15: fact they let Switzerland score three on the tenth, I mean,

997
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 15: I don't know what they were thinking, but thankfully they

998
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 15: had the hammer in the eleventh and came back to

999
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:45,280
Speaker 15: qualify for the semi finals.

1000
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 5: Hearing Greg greg Shaw talk curling as boy, I never

1001
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:50,839
Speaker 5: thought I'd get as excited as when he looked at

1002
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 5: me and said we're getting Notre Dame basketball season tickets

1003
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 5: a few weeks ago. But now I'm even more excited

1004
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,280
Speaker 5: on that rake. You got the sectional draw coming up Sunday?

1005
00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: Right?

1006
00:42:59,040 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 6: That is correct? Sir?

1007
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 5: Okay, so I saw did I see you do it

1008
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 5: with Colin unrip? That is correct?

1009
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 15: So Colin I will do the show together. And I

1010
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 15: believe we're on ninety three WIBC through to Pacers basketball.

1011
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 15: Is that a factual statement?

1012
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,720
Speaker 5: I think so? Five o'clock tip right, Pacers and MAVs,

1013
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 5: I think coming.

1014
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,240
Speaker 15: Up, and yes, we're on ninety three WIBC on Sunday.

1015
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 5: Okay, let's go to Colin for a second there, because

1016
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:22,440
Speaker 5: he had an interesting poll as we looked to the

1017
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,800
Speaker 5: sectional draw on Sunday, it was Fishers of the field

1018
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 5: in four A. Did you happen to see the results

1019
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 5: of that?

1020
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 6: I have not.

1021
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 5: No, Okay, what would you guess? The result of that?

1022
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 15: Has to me is that people picked Fishers by that

1023
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 15: they would have the majority?

1024
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, sixty? Is that where you would kind of lay

1025
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 5: it out as we had because it feels like, weirdly, Rake,

1026
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,280
Speaker 5: it feels like they've had some close games here, maybe

1027
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,720
Speaker 5: not even to the most Marquee Marque opponents lately.

1028
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 15: Well, let's acknowledge it again. Even though they are unbeaten,

1029
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 15: I don't think they are as good as they were

1030
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 15: last year because last year's team was phenomenal and I

1031
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 15: thought there was one team it could beat him, and

1032
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 15: that was the team that got him in the state

1033
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:06,320
Speaker 15: championship games because of matchups in Jeffersonville. This team is

1034
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 15: obviously very good and hasn't been beaten, but I don't

1035
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 15: think the margin for error is what it is for

1036
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 15: this group that it was a year ago.

1037
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 6: Now.

1038
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 15: I saw them early in the year, then didn't see

1039
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,399
Speaker 15: him again until the game against Carmel where they won

1040
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 15: at Carmel without their best player in Jason Gardner Junior.

1041
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 15: And the progress that I saw from the kids, they

1042
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,400
Speaker 15: would qualify as the role players John John lom Levi, Walker,

1043
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 15: the Breeland Brothers, et cetera. I thought was significant. But yes,

1044
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 15: Sena Grove hung with him on Friday, Westfield took him

1045
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 15: to overtime the Thursday before that, so they have been

1046
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 15: in some close games. So this year I might go

1047
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,880
Speaker 15: with the Field, not just for the sectional, but you know,

1048
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:54,439
Speaker 15: throughout the tournament. But his Fishers unquestionably the best team

1049
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,280
Speaker 15: in the state. Yes, Kevin, they are.

1050
00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: Text line question for you. Greg Fish from Stoops wants

1051
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: you to talk about Plainfield.

1052
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 15: Plainfield is outstanding. Plainfield also because the geography has to

1053
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 15: play pike at some point in time, very early in

1054
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:12,959
Speaker 15: the tournament. And if Fishers' number one Pike is number

1055
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,320
Speaker 15: two in my mind, not that they again they can't

1056
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 15: be beaten. I've got them against Ellen tonight and that

1057
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 15: game is for the m Championship. That game has already

1058
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 15: even played once and Llen beat Pike in the Marion

1059
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,760
Speaker 15: County Championship game by three. But to the listeners question,

1060
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 15: Plainfield is outstanding.

1061
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:30,880
Speaker 6: Noah Smith's gonna.

1062
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,720
Speaker 15: Play at De Paul Harper baker Lands is a Division

1063
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 15: one level guard to point guard Land and Gillot I

1064
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 15: believe it is Plainfield's all time leader and assists. He's

1065
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 15: gonna play at Saint Francis.

1066
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 6: Again.

1067
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 15: The other guys on that team know exactly where to

1068
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 15: go and wants to do Andy Weavers their head coach.

1069
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,280
Speaker 15: Plainfield is legitimately a top five team in the state,

1070
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 15: but they're gonna have to play another top five team

1071
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,879
Speaker 15: and Pike at some point in that sectional, and Ben

1072
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 15: Davis is also in that sectional two and then they're

1073
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 15: probably somewhere in the ten to fifteen range as teams

1074
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:04,319
Speaker 15: are concerned. So Plainfield is outstanding, but they might lose

1075
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 15: their first independing on what the draw shows for him

1076
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 15: on Sunday night, Rake.

1077
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 4: I know you've spent many a time in gyms all

1078
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 4: across this state. I made my first trip to the

1079
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:18,719
Speaker 4: Holman Center last night for a little women's basketball action

1080
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,359
Speaker 4: up there and Tara Hote. Yeah, that was cool, you know,

1081
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 4: And honestly, the question I have for you is have

1082
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 4: you caught a game up there, and you know, if so,

1083
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 4: what was your reaction to seeing the Larry burst at

1084
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 4: you for the first time? Because I was kind of like,

1085
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 4: oh man, this is sweet.

1086
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 6: You know.

1087
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 15: I did not go to school at Indiana State, but

1088
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:40,959
Speaker 15: amazingly I spent like at least a week, like three

1089
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,799
Speaker 15: different summers in high school in Tara Hote for different camps,

1090
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,839
Speaker 15: Like I went to Rose Holman's campus for the If

1091
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 15: you played basketball for like a thirty I even say

1092
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 15: thirty maybe twenty twenty five years stretch in the state

1093
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,280
Speaker 15: of Indiana, you attended one of Dick bomb Gardner's shooting

1094
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,879
Speaker 15: camps at some point in time. Most of the time

1095
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 15: those were at Earlham actually off for the week at

1096
00:46:59,080 --> 00:46:59,479
Speaker 15: Rose Holman.

1097
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 6: That's the one that I went to.

1098
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 15: The next two summers, I spent at least a week

1099
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,760
Speaker 15: at Indiana State. So I have a bond with Terre Hate.

1100
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 15: I do get the call games at Indiana State. I

1101
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 15: think I get Indiana State and U I see next Sunday.

1102
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 15: The reason I say think is that the last day

1103
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 15: of the season is kind of a wild card game

1104
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,800
Speaker 15: as to who gets to go to television. My guess

1105
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,399
Speaker 15: is at three and fourteen of the conference, Indiana State

1106
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 15: is not going to television next Sunday, which is good

1107
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,399
Speaker 15: nude for the Rakes draw bank account. So I think

1108
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 15: I'm going to be at Tarapota next Sunday afternoon. Last

1109
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 15: game I had was Illinois State. That one of those

1110
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 15: three conference wins. In fact for I issue back on

1111
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 15: January the fourteenth. Love that place. And frankly, since you

1112
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:46,399
Speaker 15: know I see all, do all, observe all. I saw

1113
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 15: your pictures with a couple of ther Reegian kids from

1114
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 15: U S. I'm happy to see Jessica Carruther's back playing

1115
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 15: Division one basketball. I know she went to Butler, they

1116
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 15: ended up at I you Northwest. I was unaware that

1117
00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 15: she was at UIC these days. Happy to see her

1118
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 15: back playing at the level frankly that she is more

1119
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 15: than capable of playing at.

1120
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 4: Yes, she won a state championship at Crown Point a

1121
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 4: few years ago. I probably should have a few years ago.

1122
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 4: It's been quite a while since THNK because now she's

1123
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 4: a grown woman. But yeah, I had a chance to

1124
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 4: see her and Sarah Zebraki another one of the region

1125
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 4: talented players up there from our first job, but to

1126
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 4: pivot to the other sport that will dominate this city

1127
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,800
Speaker 4: over the next week or so with the.

1128
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 3: NFL combine non draft equation.

1129
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 4: Rake, when we get a chance to talk to Chris

1130
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 4: Ballot next week, what is top of mind for you?

1131
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 3: And actually, I'll throw this one out there.

1132
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,399
Speaker 4: We should perhaps get an update on Tivarious Ward if

1133
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:44,840
Speaker 4: he decides to walk away from football and retire because

1134
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 4: of his concussions. How big of a need does cornerback

1135
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 4: become for the draft and perhaps free agency if he's

1136
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:52,640
Speaker 4: no longer a part of the equation.

1137
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 15: Well, I think there's a follow up question is what

1138
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 15: him do with kennymore? You know, yes, right, because basically,

1139
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 15: if Mooney retires and Frankly, you know, for what it's worth,

1140
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 15: I would think that's the.

1141
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 6: Way he should go.

1142
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 15: You've got Sauce Garder, You've got Kenny Moore, You've got

1143
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 15: Justin Wally And again it is easy to kind of

1144
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 15: forget about the guy that was a third round pick

1145
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 15: the year before, and Frankly had one a starting job

1146
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 15: before before the injury occurred. The Tuesday of the opening week,

1147
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,280
Speaker 15: I think August fifth, before the first preseason game August

1148
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,439
Speaker 15: seventh against the Baltimore Ravens. Does that mean you're set

1149
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 15: at corner?

1150
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:29,200
Speaker 12: No.

1151
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 15: And I have said this either on this show or

1152
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 15: other places before. I think it's not that big of

1153
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:41,120
Speaker 15: an oversimplication simplification to look at the cults draft picks

1154
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 15: and go, who is the best defensive player available.

1155
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,359
Speaker 6: Let's take that guy, because.

1156
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 15: You could argue there is needs along every position. You

1157
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 15: obviously have pass rush questions. You got to get younger

1158
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 15: at linebacker, and every team always drafts defensive backs in

1159
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:01,839
Speaker 15: every drafts as backups, as as special teams guys, etc.

1160
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:04,759
Speaker 15: You got to remember there are two defensive backs and

1161
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,479
Speaker 15: Wally and Wohler that never made it to the start

1162
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,240
Speaker 15: line last year that you think are going to factor

1163
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,919
Speaker 15: in in some form of fashion this year. So yes,

1164
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 15: Mooney's decision impacts the roster and the salary cap, but

1165
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 15: there are probably three guys that have been starters or

1166
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,560
Speaker 15: are considered to be starters that are on the roster

1167
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 15: not named Mooney Ward for this football team. So I

1168
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 15: can throw that out there at you as well.

1169
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 5: Rick, are you under the lights tomorrow? Night inside a

1170
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 5: gamebridge Field house.

1171
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 15: I am I will be interviewing fourteen winning wrestlers, a

1172
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,840
Speaker 15: winning state coach, and the mental attitude or winner for

1173
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 15: the IHSAA Champions Network.

1174
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,280
Speaker 5: I love that. That is a tremendous environment if anybody

1175
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 5: has never been to, especially the night cap of the

1176
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 5: state wrestling finals that actually gets underway here this afternoon

1177
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 5: over a Gamebridgefield. I did want to ask you about

1178
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,719
Speaker 5: we talk colnder At earlier and he had this news

1179
00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,880
Speaker 5: item yesterday and I know it created a lot of

1180
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:02,320
Speaker 5: chatter of Henderson and fill in any gaps I have

1181
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 5: in this story, right, please, The son of Alan Henderson

1182
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 5: a very good player at University High School located on

1183
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 5: the west side of Carmel. I believe they were the

1184
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,640
Speaker 5: state runner up last year yep, and he I guess

1185
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 5: Withdrew is a very good player again this season for them.

1186
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,840
Speaker 5: He has withdrawn from University High School, and I believe

1187
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 5: as according to Kyle's story I think he said in

1188
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:28,839
Speaker 5: brolled it Carmel and the ISSA rules indicate that you

1189
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 5: have to sit out thirty days for an in season transfer,

1190
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 5: So if Carmel got on a run, I guess he

1191
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 5: could be eligible do you know any more on this story?

1192
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:43,439
Speaker 5: It was kind of a wild story.

1193
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 15: Now you're right, and again it's kind of the new

1194
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 15: era that we are in. But yes, according to that,

1195
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,360
Speaker 15: he would be eligible if they made the semi state,

1196
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,919
Speaker 15: which is certainly possible. Again, they have to get through

1197
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:02,839
Speaker 15: Fisher's in the sectional. But then after that Carmel would

1198
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 15: be whoever wins the the Hamilton County Sectional would be

1199
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 15: the favorite to win their regional. And but just because

1200
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 15: kind of way the matchups work this year, and so yes,

1201
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 15: he could be eligible in thirty days. Again, is there

1202
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:23,799
Speaker 15: more of this story? Likely haven't had a chance to

1203
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 15: talk to Kyle and or the family about it, not yet.

1204
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 15: So you know, you would think, hey, maybe you finish

1205
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,279
Speaker 15: out this season, then you make the move so you

1206
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 15: can play next year. Others have said, hey, if you

1207
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 15: make the move now, it kind of starts a clock

1208
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:40,840
Speaker 15: and maybe you're not sitting as long next year.

1209
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:42,279
Speaker 6: I think it has a.

1210
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:46,800
Speaker 15: Major impact on Carmel next year because they lose Evan Harrold.

1211
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 15: I think he's probably gonna be an Indiana All Star,

1212
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 15: going to play in Bellerman. They lose Julian Vote, who

1213
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 15: has blossomed as a player this year and just picked

1214
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 15: up an offer from Indiana Wesleyan, who obviously one of

1215
00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 15: the best small college programs in the nation. They do

1216
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,800
Speaker 15: bring back Cash Daniels, they do bring back Aden Dickerson,

1217
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:05,760
Speaker 15: but they graduate basically four of their top six or seven,

1218
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,640
Speaker 15: and so the addition of Henderson is a major pickup

1219
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 15: for this Carmel team next year, and there is a

1220
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 15: chance that it could help them this year if they

1221
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 15: can find a way to do something nobody else has

1222
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 15: done this year, and that's beat fishers if they get

1223
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 15: to them.

1224
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 5: Rag has the thirty day rule? Has that always been

1225
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 5: a thing? Because it seems rather ridiculous to me, And

1226
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 5: I don't know, maybe I'm living too much in the

1227
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 5: transfer portal era of college or hell, even the tanking

1228
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:36,360
Speaker 5: of the NBA, But like whatever, if you're frustrated with

1229
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 5: your situation, if the season is not going well, and

1230
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 5: you make this move in January, thirty days, you could

1231
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,200
Speaker 5: be eligible to start the sectional at some other school.

1232
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 5: Has it always been thirty days? It seems so short.

1233
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:50,920
Speaker 15: I don't think that has been the case, but I

1234
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 15: think it has been kind of on a case by

1235
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 15: case basis. Have I seen players previously play for one

1236
00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,359
Speaker 15: team at the start of the season and play for

1237
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:03,560
Speaker 15: somebody else at the end of the season. Yes, it

1238
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 15: hasn't usually happened, but there have been cases where, again

1239
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,799
Speaker 15: you go through an appeals process or to give a

1240
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 15: reason for transfer, and basically both schools would have to

1241
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,240
Speaker 15: sign off on it. Obviously, the school that is receiving

1242
00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 15: the new student slash athlete you know, would be in

1243
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,400
Speaker 15: favor of it. But there are cases where the previous

1244
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:26,000
Speaker 15: school would have said, yes, transfer has approved, understandable and

1245
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,719
Speaker 15: you would be eligible to play. We frankly now have

1246
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,840
Speaker 15: to have a policy on these things because it happens

1247
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:33,760
Speaker 15: a bit more frequently.

1248
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,320
Speaker 5: Sorry, I've got one more so if university didn't sign off,

1249
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,360
Speaker 5: then he wouldn't be eligible. Is it that simple?

1250
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 6: No?

1251
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,840
Speaker 15: No, not now because of the of the of the

1252
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:46,080
Speaker 15: way the rules have changed. That process is in place.

1253
00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:48,319
Speaker 15: Before it was almost on a case by case basis.

1254
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:50,959
Speaker 2: Rick, what's the worst tank job you've ever seen?

1255
00:54:56,680 --> 00:55:00,200
Speaker 6: Good question too, to.

1256
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 15: Worst tank champ I've ever seen? Probably me on a

1257
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 15: golf course. I'd be the way to scrive it.

1258
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 5: I was gonna say those The reason I'm pausing stop

1259
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 5: that I know you've got the Greens Rake.

1260
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 15: I'm trying to delineate from a team that's tanking to

1261
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:27,000
Speaker 15: a team that's just bad. I mean the fact that

1262
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:30,960
Speaker 15: that the Sixers were so bad for so long and

1263
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:34,760
Speaker 15: like would just give away pieces that were good because

1264
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,680
Speaker 15: they wanted to draft more so, like the Darryl Mory

1265
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 15: era of the process is what immediately comes to mind.

1266
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,320
Speaker 15: Like I can rattle up stats about the worst teams ever,

1267
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:47,160
Speaker 15: but some of those teams just sucked. They weren't tanking.

1268
00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 15: This didn't have any talent, so so tanking again, if

1269
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 15: we take my golf ability out of the mix, I

1270
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,240
Speaker 15: would go with like that four or five year swath

1271
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 15: of the process for the Philadelphia seventy six ers.

1272
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 1: Hard to argue that there was that they were They

1273
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,399
Speaker 1: were barely a G League team at the time.

1274
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:07,479
Speaker 6: Like was it wasn't?

1275
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 15: Was it Nerlin's Noel that was like a semi decent

1276
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 15: player for them?

1277
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 6: Am I am?

1278
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 2: I giving the ruin and he wasn't hurt?

1279
00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:14,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they had him.

1280
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,879
Speaker 4: I think Marco Carter Williams might have been with them

1281
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 4: for a while as well, Right, but they were.

1282
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 15: Gave They basically gave Noel away for nothing. It's because ah,

1283
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,239
Speaker 15: he's too good. We're gonna start winning games and let's

1284
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 15: get rid of him. Yeah, he's not part of our

1285
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 15: long term process. So that that in my era of

1286
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,840
Speaker 15: doing this quasi professionally, that would be the thing that

1287
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:33,960
Speaker 15: I would think of immediately.

1288
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh as always, buddy, good to talk to you.

1289
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 1: Have fun this weekend and we will check in with

1290
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:43,319
Speaker 1: you later. Okay, there is the one, the only Greg Rakestraw. See,

1291
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:45,880
Speaker 1: even Greg is his mind is not bent on on

1292
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: tanking Greg usually as that encyclopedic memory, but he's not

1293
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:50,960
Speaker 1: wrong about the Sixers.

1294
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:53,920
Speaker 4: The fact that he pulled nerlins Noel out here on

1295
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 4: the radio show on a Friday at eight fifteen.

1296
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:57,879
Speaker 3: Lets you know the mind of Rake?

1297
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 5: Do you guys think that thirty day rules stupid?

1298
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 2: This is it's weird?

1299
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 5: Am I the only one? I mean, shouldn't it be longer?

1300
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 7: Well?

1301
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,400
Speaker 5: But here's the thing. Season you can play for two teams?

1302
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,799
Speaker 1: It's crazy. The only I think I think the reason though,

1303
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:11,600
Speaker 1: that he can do it, and I think Greg kind

1304
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:15,080
Speaker 1: of touched on it sort of. It's because he's transferring

1305
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 1: to school that he if Ordinarily University is a private school.

1306
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 1: Carmel's a public school Karmel Is where he would be

1307
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 1: going to school.

1308
00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 5: Well, I get that, but that's the only season. Like

1309
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 5: if you want to transfer and you have a waiver,

1310
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 5: like I'm all for doing that, and he can be

1311
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 5: eligible next year. But to me, it just seems like

1312
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 5: that is a very slippery slope. It is if you

1313
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 5: do not like your current situation at said school, you

1314
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 5: could go in season and go play for another team.

1315
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,840
Speaker 5: Can you imagine whatever Braden Smith not happy with Matt

1316
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 5: Painter at Purdue and transferring to go play for Indiana.

1317
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,440
Speaker 4: I would just like to know what LEDs all of this.

1318
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 4: But to your answer your question.

1319
00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 5: Right, and again, I'm there might be a legit story,

1320
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 5: he I don't necessarily when.

1321
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,720
Speaker 2: Sisters also going there too, by the way.

1322
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 5: Right, I don't want to get into that. I'm more

1323
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 5: of just like the rule itself, thirty days seems like

1324
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:10,439
Speaker 5: a very short window release. Yeah.

1325
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 4: But the reason why I say the thirty day rule

1326
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 4: thing and all that, and why I want to know,

1327
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:17,520
Speaker 4: like why you're living is because ultimately you have to

1328
00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 4: be able to evaluate is this strictly for athletics or

1329
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,880
Speaker 4: is there something else in extenuating circumstance? But like you said,

1330
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,480
Speaker 4: the rule kind of allows you to, I guess, flirt

1331
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 4: with whatever reason you want to give. So even in

1332
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 4: my time going from covering high school sports back in

1333
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 4: I want to say from twenty eighteen to about twenty

1334
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:40,320
Speaker 4: twenty one, the rules have changed drastically since then, because

1335
00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:43,280
Speaker 4: I remember, Kevin, if you transferred schools, they.

1336
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:45,240
Speaker 3: Had like the three hundred and sixty five day rule.

1337
00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:48,560
Speaker 4: Basically, so you would if you did have a prominent transfer,

1338
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:51,920
Speaker 4: it would usually be some kid becoming eligible right around

1339
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,360
Speaker 4: the time of the postseason, but they had also been

1340
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 4: at that school for basically a full year exactly.

1341
00:58:57,800 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 5: Not that's what I'm using.

1342
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:00,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's go on a run here, and I hope

1343
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 4: that we can get another, you know, Division one talent

1344
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 4: on our program. So hey, if I'm Carmel, do you

1345
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:07,600
Speaker 4: shut your mouth, Kevin.

1346
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 5: We need to help c C C A R M

1347
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 5: M M E L c A R M E L.

1348
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,640
Speaker 3: How do you know school chance?

1349
00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 5: Does Carmel still have the Notre Dame fight songs? Their

1350
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 5: fight song? By the way, we're about ready to throw

1351
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 5: the hammer. The Swiss have come to play today. They

1352
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 5: were not happy by yesterday.

1353
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 3: Hammer and Swiss.

1354
00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:28,760

1355
00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:30,960
Speaker 5: It's not a hammer cluster ruck especiallyunds like I need

1356
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:32,160

Speaker 3: He's made it very clear he's an American.

1361
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 5: Earlier this week, if I was watching Norway in Switzerland,

1362
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 5: I would need Maddie Bowen to leave me immediately.

1363
00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:53,880

Speaker 5: the stone and what needs to happen with the sweepers,

1385
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 5: It's just unbelievable electricity.

1386
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:03,680

1388
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,160

01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 8: make when that comes in every Tuesday.

1390
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:14,680

01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 1: All right, Let's get to the checkdown Pacers. Last night

1402
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 1: they came from behind, they tripped by seventeen. They led

1403
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 1: by one with five and five point fifty one to go.

1404
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 1: But at the end, Washington wins over Indiana one twelve

1405
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:49,680
Speaker 1: one oh five, and that's probably all things considered a

1406
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:51,160
Speaker 1: victory for the Pacers.

1407
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:52,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe some of them had a little bit of

1408
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 4: that Korean beef there and at halftime they're like, you

1409
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 4: know what got the bubble guts?

1410
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:57,040
Speaker 3: I got to sit out.

1411
01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:01,320
Speaker 1: Aaron Nie Smith sprained an ankle, did return, Cam Jones

1412
01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:05,040
Speaker 1: hurt his back. I believe only eight of seventeen players

1413
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 1: available right now for the Pacers. What's it look like

1414
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:10,360
Speaker 1: tonight against Washington.

1415
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:14,560
Speaker 5: That's just really only eight. Well, Aarony Smith is out.

1416
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 5: He did say that after the ankle tweak last night,

1417
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:19,479
Speaker 5: he acted like and when I say he, I should

1418
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:22,200
Speaker 5: mention it's Rick Carlisle. He acted like Cam Jones would

1419
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 5: play tonight. That was part of them evaluating the back

1420
01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:26,840
Speaker 5: last night and not putting him into the game. I

1421
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,920
Speaker 5: would assume Pascal Siakam is also out for tonight due

1422
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:32,240
Speaker 5: to the personal reasons there. So you know, again, for

1423
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,880
Speaker 5: those that watched, first off, bless you. Secondly, you know

1424
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,800
Speaker 5: you saw within the game. You know Andrew Emhart exited

1425
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 5: with five minutes ago in the third quarter and never

1426
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 5: re entered. So we're starting to get maybe a little

1427
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 5: glimpse of how the Pacers will handle it. We hadn't

1428
01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:51,000
Speaker 5: seen that yet, Like you know, the the not plane

1429
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,920
Speaker 5: front line starters in the fourth quarter. That's a little

1430
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:58,160
Speaker 5: bit of a new tank wrinkle from the Pacers.

1431
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,680
Speaker 1: The Pacers playback percent by CNJ Water, the official water

1432
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:06,040
Speaker 1: treatment partner of the Indiana Pacers cnjwater dot com.

1433
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:09,160
Speaker 2: We move on now to Indiana lawmakers.

1434
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,920
Speaker 1: Mark in the State House Ways and Means Committee have

1435
01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:16,240
Speaker 1: unanimously approved an amendment to Indiana State Build twenty seven.

1436
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,120
Speaker 2: This would clear a path for the Bears to build

1437
01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:22,680
Speaker 2: a stadium in Hammond, Indiana.

1438
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,480
Speaker 1: Mark Dyton, Chicago Bears fan thoughts.

1439
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 8: Forget the potholes, Let's build the stadium your tax dollars.

1440
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 4: A real estatement you've ever made, Mark, I think Indiana

1441
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 4: might be the state that I look down driving the

1442
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 4: most in because, boy, if you don't look at those streets,

1443
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 4: you'll feel them.

1444
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 1: Hey, you get a tire realignment about it.

1445
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:48,760
Speaker 5: May I'm telling you, Mark, do you do you care

1446
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,440
Speaker 5: a lot if the stadiums in Arlington Heights or Hammond

1447
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 5: or do you care a little?

1448
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,439
Speaker 8: No, No, I don't care. I'll realize stadium.

1449
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,400
Speaker 5: It seems like it's just more of a joke than

1450
01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 5: anything like. I don't like, you know, logistically, particularly if

1451
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,160
Speaker 5: you live in the city on the south side, isn't

1452
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:06,959
Speaker 5: Hammon actually the closer stadium than Arlington Heights one hundred percent?

1453
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,600
Speaker 4: Before what I was reading, Kevin, I guess more of

1454
01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:15,960
Speaker 4: the season ticket holders live in how Alington Heights area.

1455
01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:18,480
Speaker 4: But I was thinking myself, Hey, if you got money

1456
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:20,640
Speaker 4: for a season ticket, you know, you can probably get

1457
01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:22,000
Speaker 4: money to get a little gas and.

1458
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,560
Speaker 8: Get a beach house in on the Indiana Dune, you know,

1459
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,400
Speaker 8: and then gas up in Indiana's a little.

1460
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 2: Cheaper over here.

1461
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:28,920
Speaker 1: Anyway, Marco'll start flying in for games.

1462
01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:33,160
Speaker 5: Just Gary Airport, baby, that's an international air uh.

1463
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:35,280
Speaker 1: The bill that we talked about would create the Northwest

1464
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:39,040
Speaker 1: Indiana Stadium Authority with the power to issue bonds, acquire land,

1465
01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 1: and finance construction for that stadium. All right, let's talk hockey, Kevin.

1466
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:47,360
Speaker 1: What's the latest that it's the end of one right now?

1467
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:48,400
Speaker 1: Nothing's changed yet.

1468
01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:49,880
Speaker 3: Well, curling's in hockey.

1469
01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sorry. Curling first, and then hockey.

1470
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:54,400
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we're in the We're in the second right now. Okay,

1471
01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:55,200
Speaker 5: I'll keep you posting.

1472
01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 1: I just uh, he was over there on his phone.

1473
01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:58,760
Speaker 1: I just didn't want to get them out of there. Yeah,

1474
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,600
Speaker 1: as far as hockey is concerned, Team USA Women, they

1475
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:04,320
Speaker 1: were trailing one nothing less than two minutes ago.

1476
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:05,960
Speaker 2: They pulled the goaltender.

1477
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:09,440
Speaker 1: That worked out. Captain Hillary Knight tied it up at

1478
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:12,400
Speaker 1: one with a little over a minute remaining, and then

1479
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:16,160
Speaker 1: the three on three overtime took place about four minutes

1480
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 1: in Mark Dyton the.

1481
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,520
Speaker 2: Albert Pastor calor the Fat's.

1482
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:27,200
Speaker 11: Been high school to the color the overcome hero the

1483
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 11: United States, friends told.

1484
01:05:31,120 --> 01:05:34,000
Speaker 1: Sounded like a very pro American crowd in the background, there,

1485
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 1: didn't it.

1486
01:05:34,760 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was incredible, man.

1487
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 4: And again, the highs and lows of hockey are like

1488
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:42,800
Speaker 4: unlike any other.

1489
01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 5: Sport because especially when they go three on three, the

1490
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 5: three on three creates them just mean.

1491
01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 4: And then that's what I think, Like, you're probably thinking

1492
01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:51,640
Speaker 4: about all of the night in the moment, but that's

1493
01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:55,480
Speaker 4: probably every single extra workout you've ever done to prepare

1494
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:58,560
Speaker 4: moments like that. And I mean not not to you know,

1495
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 4: get to basketball, he would, but I thought that last

1496
01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 4: goal was kind of like seeing your favorite player have

1497
01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 4: like an ankle break and crossover for the win.

1498
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:08,960
Speaker 3: And now it's not special man. Yeah, Meghan Keller, you're

1499
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:09,800
Speaker 3: a legend now.

1500
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: That that was terrific. That was a lot of fun

1501
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,760
Speaker 1: to watch, and that had my heart beating. You know,

1502
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 1: it's funny. And the National Hockey League overtime is four

1503
01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:19,439
Speaker 1: on four. After this, I kind of feel like three

1504
01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 1: on three might be superior. It's a lot more fun. Fire. Yeah,

1505
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 1: I liked it. Speaking of the men, they will play

1506
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,520
Speaker 1: for a chance to go to the gold medal game

1507
01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,200
Speaker 1: today semi final against Slovakia. That one starts at three

1508
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,960
Speaker 1: to ten. We've talked with Rake a moment ago about

1509
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:36,960
Speaker 1: girls semi state starting this weekend. Anything in particular that

1510
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: he said that you liked or that you're looking forward to, James.

1511
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 4: Well, I'm I was looking forward to the sectional draw.

1512
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 4: I think it'll be cool to see Kyle ned and

1513
01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 4: RiPP and Rake do their thing. Those two are I

1514
01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 4: think the two of the best when it comes to

1515
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,120
Speaker 4: cover high school sports in our state, and as far

1516
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:55,680
Speaker 4: as the girls go, when it comes to semi state action,

1517
01:06:56,480 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 4: my eyes go to the Jasper semi state just because

1518
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,720
Speaker 4: of who's there. You know, you got underfeet of Center

1519
01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 4: Grove and then you have Laurence Central led by I

1520
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 4: mean Donads All American and Lowell Ampley. And if those

1521
01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:10,120
Speaker 4: two teams win their first game, I believe they match

1522
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:13,120
Speaker 4: up in that night game for a trip to gamber

1523
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,560
Speaker 4: SHIWD House for the for A State finals. So a

1524
01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 4: lot of big games this weekend. And again I was

1525
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 4: at a regional game last week, Jeff, and the amount

1526
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,200
Speaker 4: of people yelling at the referees, yelling at the coaches,

1527
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 4: yelling at their kids, and then cheering when they had success,

1528
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,959
Speaker 4: it was it was chaos and I loved it all right.

1529
01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:32,080
Speaker 1: Later on tonight college basketball Indiana Purdue up at Mackie.

1530
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:34,040
Speaker 2: Kevin Bowen, you said it's a ten and a half

1531
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 2: point spread.

1532
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,439
Speaker 5: Throwing Ron Colli is at Southboard in their semi state

1533
01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 5: as well, and again wrestling state finals. That's really one

1534
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:45,120
Speaker 5: of the cooler events, right that people will share over

1535
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 5: at gamebridge Field House too. That's the popular chant you'll

1536
01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 5: hear there too. You know, we got to make sure

1537
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,840
Speaker 5: the takedown is properly awarded there. So Friday and Saturday

1538
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:55,680
Speaker 5: over Gambridgefield house, And yes, I was a little surprised

1539
01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 5: that it was as big of a spread as it

1540
01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 5: is tonight up there in Mackie. Ten and a half

1541
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 5: is what it opened up.

1542
01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:03,000
Speaker 3: Put some money down and move that line.

1543
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:07,280
Speaker 5: Eight o'clock on Fox for those watching. So you know, again,

1544
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:10,280
Speaker 5: in this era of the Braden Smith Fletcher Lawyer era, weirdly,

1545
01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:13,240
Speaker 5: Indiana has been right there with Purdue and these head

1546
01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 5: to head matchups, although the rest of the resume that

1547
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,240
Speaker 5: would not be the case whatsoever. So again, curious if

1548
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,200
Speaker 5: Connor Enwright can stay out of foul trouble like he

1549
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:24,760
Speaker 5: did really the rare occurrence that he did in the

1550
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 5: first matchup. How much does Nick Dorn bounce back he

1551
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:31,479
Speaker 5: struggled here lately. And just Purdue, do they assert their size?

1552
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,240
Speaker 5: They didn't do that at all in Bloomington in the

1553

01:09:56,840 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 1: I know it's better for you just to end the

1576
01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 1: losing streak for but that had to feel good all

1577
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:01,840
Speaker 1: the way around.

1578
01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:06,840
Speaker 13: You're You're definitely right there, there's no question about it.

1579
01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:09,200
Speaker 13: And I like to call on the gang lead and

1580
01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,479
Speaker 13: you know, it takes me back to high school when

1581
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:14,439
Speaker 13: that song came out. But now you know, it's been

1582
01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:18,360
Speaker 13: an amazing twenty one years and I think from the

1583
01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:23,360
Speaker 13: standpoint of as you said, you know, ending the losing

1584
01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:26,720
Speaker 13: streak was the most prevalent thing on my mind. And

1585
01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,200
Speaker 13: you know, I give our guys a lot of credit.

1586
01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:33,120
Speaker 13: They've continued to fight, they've continued to scrape and claw,

1587
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:37,519
Speaker 13: and and that was a I kep a road wind

1588
01:10:37,560 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 13: for us the other night, considering all the circumstances, and

1589
01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:43,960
Speaker 13: you know, we've got to get ourselves ready to go again.

1590
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:46,800
Speaker 13: Here we've got another short turnaround. It's been you know,

1591
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:50,520
Speaker 13: from Wednesday or I'm sorry Sunday Wednesday to now Saturday,

1592
01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:53,680
Speaker 13: one tip, has been a heck of a week for us.

1593
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:57,760
Speaker 4: Sad again, congrats on when number five hundred. Do you

1594
01:10:57,800 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 4: remember the first victim?

1595
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 6: I do you?

1596
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,240
Speaker 13: Shall on the ninety to seventy two I think was

1597
01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:05,559
Speaker 13: a score and.

1598
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:09,880
Speaker 6: Never forget that. So it's funny.

1599
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:12,040
Speaker 13: We were talking about a lot of the game. That

1600
01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:14,080
Speaker 13: had some friends over last night and we were talking

1601
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:16,680
Speaker 13: about a lot of the games along the way, and

1602
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,840
Speaker 13: like I said, it's been an amazing twenty one years.

1603
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,559
Speaker 5: Again, Butler and Xavier coming up. As that said, one

1604
01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:27,519
Speaker 5: thirty inside of Eagle Field House on Saturday, I saw

1605
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:30,320
Speaker 5: a couple of different videos one made more Butler centric

1606
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:34,200
Speaker 5: one kind of your extended college basketball family coach, So

1607
01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:36,759
Speaker 5: was there anything that stuck out and kind of reminiscent

1608
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:40,479
Speaker 5: and watching any of the shoutouts you got from former players, coaches,

1609
01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:40,920
Speaker 5: et cetera.

1610
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:47,519
Speaker 13: You know, it's funny because my daughter Rally made me

1611
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:50,320
Speaker 13: a video that was I don't know, probably twenty five

1612
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,519
Speaker 13: minutes long. It's just not only the Butler players, but

1613
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:58,120
Speaker 13: the Xavier players who have the state players. And you know,

1614
01:11:58,840 --> 01:12:01,439
Speaker 13: everybody is going to get the players that I coached

1615
01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:04,400
Speaker 13: along the way, but I never will. And I mean,

1616
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:09,760
Speaker 13: those guys obviously have have made the difference. And I

1617
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,160
Speaker 13: think Brad Stevens probably said it best. He said, you know,

1618
01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:15,320
Speaker 13: it's amazing when you think about you've left the gymnasium

1619
01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:16,920
Speaker 13: five hundred times happy.

1620
01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:19,000
Speaker 6: In this profession, and.

1621
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 13: You know how many games you've gone into and saying, ooh,

1622
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:25,639
Speaker 13: I don't know if we can win this thing. And

1623
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:27,320
Speaker 13: you know, even the other night, I mean, you know,

1624
01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 13: Michael Jai, my hat's off to him once again. You know,

1625
01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:34,240
Speaker 13: I go him in halftime we're up ten or whatever

1626
01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:37,360
Speaker 13: it was, and he's got his winner park on and

1627
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:40,519
Speaker 13: he's like shaking because he's got the chills, he's so sick,

1628
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:44,800
Speaker 13: and he'd been on ivs throughout the day just trying

1629
01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 13: to get to play, and and you obviously we're a

1630
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:51,720
Speaker 13: little bit depleted anyway, but you know him given that

1631
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:53,559
Speaker 13: type of effort, I mean, those are the things that

1632
01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:55,559
Speaker 13: as a coach you're never going to forget.

1633
01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:58,200
Speaker 5: I did want to ask you about a sequence late

1634
01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:01,639
Speaker 5: in the game on Wednesday where I think the ball

1635
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:05,559
Speaker 5: went out of bounds and Drayton Jones was adamant that

1636
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:09,320
Speaker 5: it was off of Georgetown, and he wanted your bench

1637
01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:14,120
Speaker 5: to challenge. Do you mind taking us through that process?

1638
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:16,759
Speaker 5: Obviously it's a new wrinkle, and I have a feeling

1639
01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:18,360
Speaker 5: there's a time or two where you look out on

1640
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:20,880
Speaker 5: the floor and the player's waving his finger in the

1641
01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:24,160
Speaker 5: air and you're thinking you better be right or else

1642
01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 5: you're gonna be running every ramp Pinkle field House has

1643
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:30,479
Speaker 5: ever had. So do you listen to some players and

1644
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,280
Speaker 5: not others? How does that process work for it?

1645
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,760
Speaker 13: It was funny when I first started coach, I implemented

1646
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:39,280
Speaker 13: a rule, you always have to tell me the truth

1647
01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:42,280
Speaker 13: in the game, because I don't want to argue a

1648
01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:46,640
Speaker 13: call if you're not telling me the truth. And I

1649
01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:50,040
Speaker 13: had just kid Ron Lewis, who always I got fouled. Coach,

1650
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:51,920
Speaker 13: I got fouled. I go back and watch to take

1651
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:55,600
Speaker 13: the guy who's like three feet from and but no,

1652
01:13:56,000 --> 01:14:02,920
Speaker 13: I saw the deflection and Drayton, you know, reacted to uh.

1653
01:14:03,160 --> 01:14:03,439
Speaker 6: Check.

1654
01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:05,360
Speaker 13: I felt pretty confident.

1655
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 1: I didn't even want to look at.

1656
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:11,120
Speaker 13: The computer screen because I saw the ball change directions

1657
01:14:11,120 --> 01:14:14,240
Speaker 13: if you will, and you know, and as I politely

1658
01:14:14,240 --> 01:14:17,040
Speaker 13: said to the rep afterwards, why do I have to

1659
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:19,519
Speaker 13: challenge something that I already knew when you had six

1660
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:22,840
Speaker 13: eyes out there? But it was you know, that was

1661
01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:25,439
Speaker 13: an unbelievable play by Drayton. I mean, I just you know,

1662
01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:28,479
Speaker 13: his effort and and uh to go after the ball

1663
01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 13: and save it and have it deflected was was tremendous

1664
01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:32,599
Speaker 13: for us.

1665
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:36,240
Speaker 1: Talk about Finley Bizjack. He had that risk injury, comes

1666
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:38,160
Speaker 1: back from that. He was a big part of you

1667
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,600
Speaker 1: getting that win the other night. What do we not

1668
01:14:40,760 --> 01:14:42,600
Speaker 1: know about this kid that we should know that you

1669
01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:44,680
Speaker 1: see every day?

1670
01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:48,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think this was me is just one of

1671
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 13: those guys. He just loves the game of basketball. And

1672
01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:55,599
Speaker 13: and I go back to his freshman year when he

1673
01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:58,479
Speaker 13: wasn't playing as much as he wanted to, and you know,

1674
01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:00,200
Speaker 13: we'd find out the next morning that he he was

1675
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 13: in the HRC playing pick up basketball at night with

1676
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:07,360
Speaker 13: the with the students. You know, he just he's one

1677
01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 13: of those guys that just kind of gets lost in

1678
01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:14,000
Speaker 13: the moment. And I think he probably he probably enjoys

1679
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:16,559
Speaker 13: overtimes more than anybody else because he gets to keep playing.

1680
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:20,240
Speaker 13: And I love I love that about Findlay and and uh,

1681
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:22,840
Speaker 13: you know, when you think about it, he's kind of

1682
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,439
Speaker 13: an anomaly nowadays the college basketball because he's been there

1683
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:28,559
Speaker 13: for three years and and people are familiar with him

1684
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,840
Speaker 13: and and by most importantly, they've seen the growth that

1685
01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 13: he's made as a player, and just his development and

1686
01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:38,400
Speaker 13: how his game has grown is it's a it's a

1687
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:39,320
Speaker 13: great thing to see.

1688
01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:43,960
Speaker 4: Last one for me, coach. So, if I'm riddys correctly.

1689
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:48,479
Speaker 4: On your Wikipedia page, he says you were born in Hoopiston, Illinois,

1690
01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:52,160
Speaker 4: that I pronounce it Hoopston. So the place you were

1691
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,680
Speaker 4: born in literally has the word hoop in the name. Yeah,

1692
01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:58,040
Speaker 4: so you're you're essentially I'm asking were you born to

1693
01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:00,720
Speaker 4: coach basketball or at least play it is.

1694
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:01,719
Speaker 2: That part of the equation.

1695
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:05,120
Speaker 4: I mean literally, it's in the name, but on more

1696
01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:08,879
Speaker 4: serious no jokes aside, when did you realize that coaching

1697
01:16:08,960 --> 01:16:10,599
Speaker 4: was something you seriously wanted to do?

1698
01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:14,040
Speaker 3: And what has kept it.

1699
01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:15,640
Speaker 4: Fun for all these years? Because I can't imagine you

1700
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:17,960
Speaker 4: would sacrifice that much of your time in your life

1701
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,639
Speaker 4: to the game if you're not enjoying each chapter, each version,

1702
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:23,320
Speaker 4: and the ever changing landscape of it.

1703
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:25,799
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, it's funny.

1704
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:30,320
Speaker 13: I was My dad was a coach athletic director at

1705
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,600
Speaker 13: the high school and all I ever wanted to be

1706
01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:37,400
Speaker 13: in life with him and it was a great role

1707
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:40,720
Speaker 13: model for me. And you know, I was I was

1708
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:44,080
Speaker 13: raised in the gymnasium. I was at the luxury of

1709
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 13: sitting in the coach's locker room after wins after losses

1710
01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:52,160
Speaker 13: as little kid and just listening and I knew that,

1711
01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:55,360
Speaker 13: Uh that's what I honestly, I just wanted to be

1712
01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:58,360
Speaker 13: a high school basketball coach. And uh, you know, when

1713
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:00,639
Speaker 13: I graduated from Butler, I say, you know, I kind

1714
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:02,880
Speaker 13: of want to give this college thing to try, and

1715
01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:07,160
Speaker 13: got lucky. There's there's no doubt, you know, from getting

1716
01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:10,400
Speaker 13: a GA spotted at Indiana State for takes, luck and

1717
01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:15,639
Speaker 13: you know, just sort of finding my way, navigating through

1718
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,599
Speaker 13: and to be in this position I am today. I've

1719
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,719
Speaker 13: always considered myself the luckiest guy in the world.

1720
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:24,479
Speaker 1: Coach, it's always great to hear from you. Just curious

1721
01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 1: like the rest of us. I know you've been busy.

1722
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:28,320
Speaker 1: Have you had time to pay attention to the Olympics

1723
01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:30,439
Speaker 1: that if you have, what's been your favorite moment so far?

1724
01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:34,120
Speaker 13: I'll be honest with you, I haven't.

1725
01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 2: You've been busy.

1726
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:36,519
Speaker 6: I haven't.

1727
01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:40,840
Speaker 13: I haven't, And I know my wife watches it throughout

1728
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:44,600
Speaker 13: the day, but I have not had the opportunity to

1729
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:48,160
Speaker 13: see a second of it. You know, I think when

1730
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:50,400
Speaker 13: you're when you're not winning and you're trying to find

1731
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:52,920
Speaker 13: any way possible, you spend a little bit more time.

1732
01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:56,960
Speaker 13: But go USA, That's all I can say.

1733
01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:59,840
Speaker 2: I love it, Coach, always are a pleasure to speak with.

1734
01:17:59,880 --> 01:17:59,960
Speaker 6: You.

1735
01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:02,720
Speaker 2: Go out and build on that. Man, it's fun to watch.

1736
01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:03,680
Speaker 1: Let's go now.

1737
01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:05,200
Speaker 13: It would be a fun with tomorrow, There's no doubt

1738
01:18:05,240 --> 01:18:05,639
Speaker 13: about that.

1739
01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,080
Speaker 1: All right, Thank you very much. We appreciate that that's

1740

Speaker 1: Mattresses free delivery to the entire Indianapolis metro area. But

1747
01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:32,719
Speaker 1: it's worth to drive to Columbus and check it out yourself.

1748

Speaker 1: Thompson Furniture dot Net coming up in a moment. We'll

Speaker 1: five to Fan.

1753
01:18:57,360 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 10: You were listening to the Fan Morning show on sports

1754
01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:01,559
Speaker 10: Radio and.

1755
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 2: Kevin is so locked in on curling.

1756
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,080
Speaker 1: He's the only one of the four that's just not

1757
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:09,840
Speaker 1: swaying and groove into this thing.

1758
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:11,120
Speaker 5: So I requested him.

1759
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:13,599
Speaker 1: Okay, So then you're just stoic about it.

1760
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:15,679
Speaker 5: Oh, I love a little back to the crib, Mark

1761
01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:18,800
Speaker 5: Tighten as always asking you shall receive thanks, right, I

1762
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:19,720
Speaker 5: take requests here.

1763
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 4: That is one of those songs that comes on when

1764
01:19:22,840 --> 01:19:24,760
Speaker 4: I throw the YouTube on the TV and clean the

1765
01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:27,840
Speaker 4: apartment and the hips get to move in as I'm

1766
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:28,840
Speaker 4: you know, mopping the floor.

1767
01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:29,759
Speaker 3: Just good vibes.

1768
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,559
Speaker 1: You know it's funny. Mark. You played the celebration coming

1769
01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:34,760
Speaker 1: into thad Moda just a moment ago by cooling the gang,

1770
01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:38,200
Speaker 1: and I was thinking, after the Team USA Women won

1771
01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:40,479
Speaker 1: the hockey gold yesterday, we had to have a little

1772
01:19:40,479 --> 01:19:42,320
Speaker 1: cool in the gang celebration. I forgot to mention it

1773
01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:44,559
Speaker 1: til you, so you telepathically picked.

1774
01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:46,120
Speaker 2: Up on it today. How about that right there?

1775
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:48,280
Speaker 3: You're all over locked in as always.

1776
01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 1: That's how that goes. Uh. Pacers lose last night to

1777
01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:53,880
Speaker 1: the Washington Wizards one twelve, one oh five, and again

1778
01:19:54,120 --> 01:19:56,720
Speaker 1: we've talked a little bit today about just how conflicting

1779
01:19:56,800 --> 01:20:00,000
Speaker 1: that feels. When they rallied from that seventeen point two

1780
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:01,720
Speaker 1: deficit and took a one point lead with five point

1781
01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:04,559
Speaker 1: fifty one to go. Initially your instinct is like, yeah,

1782
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:06,280
Speaker 1: let's go, and then you kind of think to yours

1783
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:08,519
Speaker 1: of wait, I don't think they want to win this game.

1784
01:20:08,840 --> 01:20:11,280
Speaker 2: It's just weird. It just feels weird.

1785
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:15,680
Speaker 3: My instinct is lose, that's all. I don't have any to.

1786
01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:19,000
Speaker 1: Win right now, that's the Bears fan talking about.

1787
01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:22,719
Speaker 3: Saving the winning for next season. I want the top pick, man, James.

1788
01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,560
Speaker 5: You think the Colts care if the Bears move to Hammond?

1789
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:32,439
Speaker 4: I don't because and you know what, Jake asked me

1790
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:36,479
Speaker 4: the same question yesterday on his show. And the reason

1791
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:40,640
Speaker 4: why I don't think, No, You're fine. I mean it

1792
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:42,439
Speaker 4: probably well, in fairness to you, Kevin, it probably was

1793
01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:44,040
Speaker 4: a little bit short of a question because you know

1794
01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:45,599
Speaker 4: how my boy Jake can get them. I'm like, where

1795
01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:47,280
Speaker 4: are we going? I got me out here in the woods,

1796
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:49,160
Speaker 4: you know, like the is your lights? Can you can

1797
01:20:49,240 --> 01:20:51,479
Speaker 4: you find me? You know, back to the promised lane

1798
01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:54,559
Speaker 4: and the question. But yeah, I think it's not that

1799
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:57,080
Speaker 4: big of a deal, at least in my mind, because

1800
01:20:57,280 --> 01:21:00,599
Speaker 4: that part of the state is Bear's count any way,

1801
01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,960
Speaker 4: in my opinion, and I don't see it as like

1802
01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:07,759
Speaker 4: them infringing upon like Colt's territory.

1803
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:09,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're not building a stadium Graham Park.

1804
01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:10,160
Speaker 6: Yeah no.

1805
01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:14,639
Speaker 4: And again they're in a different time zone. And if

1806
01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:16,439
Speaker 4: you really think about it, like a few of the

1807
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,280
Speaker 4: girls I told you I went to go see play

1808
01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:20,120
Speaker 4: it and they play Illino and Chicago.

1809
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:20,840
Speaker 3: They're from the region.

1810
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:24,760
Speaker 4: The schools they went to are closer to Chicago than

1811
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,680
Speaker 4: they are to Indianapolis. Like I could you know one

1812
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:30,360
Speaker 4: of the girls with a Munster high school Munster, Like

1813
01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:33,479
Speaker 4: my office in the high school itself is probably ten

1814
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:35,639
Speaker 4: minutes across the Illinois like state border.

1815
01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:38,400
Speaker 3: So do you really count that as Indiana?

1816
01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:41,080
Speaker 4: I mean maybe when you fly your taxes, but other

1817
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:43,400
Speaker 4: than that, no, So no, I don't think it's that

1818
01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:45,640
Speaker 4: big of a deal. But I do think it is

1819
01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:50,000
Speaker 4: again funny to think of realistically two teams technically being

1820
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:52,360
Speaker 4: based in Indiana. And the last thing I'll say is

1821
01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:54,559
Speaker 4: for all the people who are like the Bears just

1822
01:21:54,600 --> 01:21:58,400
Speaker 4: can't go to Indiana, the New York Football Giants play

1823
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:01,639
Speaker 4: New Jersey, So like, what are we really talking about here?

1824
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:05,280
Speaker 8: The Dallas Cowboys play and practice in Arlington.

1825
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 4: Right, I mean, if you think about it, Mark, there's

1826
01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:11,040
Speaker 4: probably like five, if not more teams in the NFL

1827
01:22:11,240 --> 01:22:16,320
Speaker 4: that are named one thing and play somewhere else. They're

1828
01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:18,599
Speaker 4: in Santa Clara, So I don't you know, I think

1829
01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:21,479
Speaker 4: it's one of those things, Kevin, where it'll be a

1830
01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:23,880
Speaker 4: huge topic, And rightfully so, it is a big deal

1831
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 4: when you move especially across state lines.

1832
01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:28,280
Speaker 3: However, people will adjust.

1833
01:22:28,479 --> 01:22:30,920
Speaker 4: And the thing that I think helps the Bears more

1834
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:33,479
Speaker 4: than perhaps a team that's younger, like said this was

1835
01:22:33,520 --> 01:22:35,960
Speaker 4: the Houston Texans, who don't have like the one hundred

1836
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:38,840
Speaker 4: year history. The Bears have one of the strongest brands

1837
01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:41,559
Speaker 4: in the country, probably in the world when it comes

1838
01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:43,800
Speaker 4: to the NFL. So you don't have to worry about

1839
01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:48,360
Speaker 4: fans filling up their seats. They will complain. I know Chicagoans,

1840
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:50,400
Speaker 4: I was one of them. They will complain. They will

1841
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:51,200
Speaker 4: still show up anyway.

1842
01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:52,599
Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting. Go ahead.

1843
01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:55,080
Speaker 5: Oh, I was just gonna add you know, we asked

1844
01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 5: Mark a little bit earlier, like does he care as

1845
01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:00,200
Speaker 5: a Bears fan, and he didn't express too much care.

1846
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:03,680
Speaker 5: But yeah, from a cult standpoint, I think, yeah, I

1847
01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:07,760
Speaker 5: know I've says this before, but the NFL has marketing radiuses. Yeah,

1848
01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:11,519
Speaker 5: seventy five mile radius around you know where your team

1849
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:14,599
Speaker 5: facility is. So for the Colts, you know, if you've

1850
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:18,799
Speaker 5: ever driven down I seventy four to Cincinnati, you know whatever,

1851
01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:21,840
Speaker 5: once you hit certainly Unce you hit lawrence Burg, but

1852
01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:24,160
Speaker 5: once you hit you know, I'm trying to think like

1853
01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 5: East Central High School, it is actually Cincinnati Bengals marketing

1854
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:31,880
Speaker 5: right territory. As you go down south on sixty five

1855
01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 5: even to probably pass Seymour, you know that area I

1856
01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:38,599
Speaker 5: believe is also Cincinnati Bengals. So you know that part

1857
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:40,760
Speaker 5: of the state. I mean, think about it training camp

1858
01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 5: and this is back in the day, but the Bears

1859
01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:44,360
Speaker 5: used to have training camp in rensal Ear. You know,

1860
01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:48,479
Speaker 5: I would assume up there that that marketing Radiuses is

1861
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,519
Speaker 5: Bears territory. Not to mention just the general and you

1862
01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:54,360
Speaker 5: know this full well, James, But if you counted whatever

1863
01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:57,840
Speaker 5: ten Region Heights, if that's a word, probably what eight

1864
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 5: or nine of them are Bears fans, So I you know,

1865
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:02,280
Speaker 5: So to answer my own question like do the Colts care,

1866
01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:06,080
Speaker 5: I don't really think they do. I mean, you know, ideally,

1867
01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:09,320
Speaker 5: would they rather than be in Arlington Heights. Maybe, But

1868
01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:13,679
Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, they're only calling Indiana's home. What eight

1869
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:16,120
Speaker 5: sundays out of the year, is it Lake Forest Mark?

1870
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:19,679
Speaker 5: Is that where they're headquarters Hall North north of Chicago?

1871
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:23,920
Speaker 5: And they have moved training camp back there, correct? And

1872
01:24:23,960 --> 01:24:26,600
Speaker 5: they don't even do the where else did they go

1873
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:28,280
Speaker 5: the Nazareth?

1874
01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:30,280
Speaker 8: Oh, they used to go to all of the Nazarene

1875
01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 8: and Bourbonet. Yeah yeah, used to not anymore.

1876
01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:35,280
Speaker 4: Here's a quick statement that joy ericson Friend of the

1877
01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,040
Speaker 4: Show Culture Port and Andy Starr got from the Colts

1878
01:24:38,040 --> 01:24:42,320
Speaker 4: on the Bears stadium push, and all they said was

1879
01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:44,760
Speaker 4: we wish the Bears all the best in their stadium initiative.

1880
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:47,599
Speaker 3: That to me doesn't sound like a team that.

1881
01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:50,280
Speaker 4: Is, you know, all, you know, clutching their pearls like,

1882
01:24:50,280 --> 01:24:52,040
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, I'm gonna lose my fan base. Like

1883
01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:54,400
Speaker 4: that's not gonna happen. And again, they have the rules

1884
01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:56,800
Speaker 4: built in place, like you said, Kevin about marketing to

1885
01:24:57,320 --> 01:25:00,599
Speaker 4: kind of ensure you do have the opportunity to keep

1886
01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:01,320
Speaker 4: your fan base.

1887
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:04,559

Speaker 12: How are you guys doing.

1904
01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:05,160
Speaker 1: We're doing great. We're excited to talk. You've been looking

1905
01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:08,200
Speaker 1: forward to this for the last couple of days.

1906
01:26:08,479 --> 01:26:10,559
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's what I don't know, twot thirty here at

1907
01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:12,880
Speaker 12: three o'clock. It's kind of like a midday low before

1908
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 12: some We got some big events coming tonight with with

1909
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:16,799
Speaker 12: Indiana's own Nick Yepper.

1910
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,320
Speaker 6: So I'm glad to hop off to top home with

1911
01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:19,840
Speaker 6: you guys.

1912
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:21,720
Speaker 1: I was just gonna ask you, like, how do you

1913
01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,519
Speaker 1: decide each day what you want to cover and where

1914
01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:25,160
Speaker 1: you want to go?

1915
01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:29,920
Speaker 12: Yeah, so that decision was made above me, my editor

1916
01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:32,840
Speaker 12: or editor Olympics editor z Actears kind of laid everything out.

1917
01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:36,680
Speaker 12: So the one thing that's been really surprising is how

1918
01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:39,519
Speaker 12: spread out everything is. Like my friends at home will

1919
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:41,439
Speaker 12: be like, were you at Lindsay Vond's crash and it's

1920
01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:43,040
Speaker 12: like it's like seven.

1921
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:44,360
Speaker 6: Hours away in Italy.

1922
01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:48,240
Speaker 12: So I'm on the skien and snowboarding beats, but mainly

1923
01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:52,280
Speaker 12: like three ski and slope style snowboarding stuff. So definitely

1924
01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:55,040
Speaker 12: events I didn't know a whole lot about before I

1925
01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:57,320
Speaker 12: started to dig into this stuff. But it's been a blast.

1926
01:26:57,840 --> 01:27:01,479
Speaker 12: The athletes are crazy, they're wild, they're really candidate. It's

1927
01:27:01,479 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 12: been just really fun to talk to them and get

1928
01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:04,160
Speaker 12: to know them and tell their stories.

1929
01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:05,000
Speaker 13: Zach.

1930
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:07,639
Speaker 4: Number one, I expect to see you at our all

Speaker 4: staff summit for the NFL a couple Monday morning.

1932
01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:13,479

1933
01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:13,800
Speaker 3: come from.

1934
01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:15,120
Speaker 2: NFL Combin's coming up.

1935
01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:17,080

01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:22,440

Speaker 4: us to making like the homemade what.

1942
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:31,759
Speaker 2: Pasta or whatever.

1943
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:33,960
Speaker 4: I got that texted like six fifty in the morning,

1944
01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:36,080
Speaker 4: coming in for the radio and I want to punch

1945
01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:39,040
Speaker 4: you through the phone, so I appreciate that as well.

1946
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:40,200
Speaker 2: But aside from my.

1947
01:27:40,200 --> 01:27:42,160
Speaker 6: Threats, may I hope it made your day.

1948
01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:43,599
Speaker 12: You don't know, you don't want to know what they're

1949
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:45,479
Speaker 12: doing right now in our last day here in Lavigna.

1950
01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:46,720
Speaker 3: You know what I mean, you indulge me.

1951
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:47,479
Speaker 2: I do want to know.

1952
01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:49,479
Speaker 3: Actually, let fill listeners in.

1953
01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:54,400
Speaker 12: They are slicing cheese and they have a free wine

1954
01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:56,120
Speaker 12: tasting in the media.

1955
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:56,800
Speaker 6: Tent right now.

1956
01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 12: I will not be able to partake, as I had

1957
01:28:00,479 --> 01:28:03,360
Speaker 12: a long night of work ahead of me. But now

1958
01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:05,960
Speaker 12: this is certainly not something they've done every day. But

1959
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,000
Speaker 12: you know there's spicing it up a little bit for

1960
01:28:09,040 --> 01:28:11,040
Speaker 12: the Olympics, which is nice extra.

1961
01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:14,680
Speaker 5: Sizzle on that athletic story. You know, I gotta make

1962
01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:17,280
Speaker 5: sure Nick Gepper, chef Kiss, I want to make.

1963
01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:18,840
Speaker 4: Sure I check and make sure you know the comments

1964
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:20,400
Speaker 4: and the periods supposed to where there supposed to go.

1965
01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:22,920
Speaker 4: If one's off and be like, oh want too many SIPs.

1966
01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:25,240
Speaker 1: Don't end up like that Australian reporter that was little

1967
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:26,960
Speaker 1: tipsy when she was doing her report.

1968
01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:30,520
Speaker 3: The yeah, don't do that, Zach. But for the preparation

1969
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:31,800
Speaker 3: for the winter Olympics.

1970
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:34,840
Speaker 4: What did you do to kind of at least get

1971
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:38,720
Speaker 4: an understanding of what's going on what you have to cover,

1972
01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:41,320
Speaker 4: because you don't necessarily want to go in as the

1973
01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:44,200
Speaker 4: completely clueless reporter who's you know, Hey, I got opportunity

1974
01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:46,400
Speaker 4: to cover the Olympics, but you don't know what's going on.

1975
01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:47,839
Speaker 4: So how did you kind of get up to speed

1976
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 4: with just the biggest event.

1977
01:28:50,360 --> 01:28:53,040
Speaker 6: In the world. Yeah.

1978
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,559
Speaker 12: We went to the Team USA summer in October, which

1979
01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:56,840
Speaker 12: was really really helpful for me.

1980
01:28:56,960 --> 01:28:58,200
Speaker 6: I got to know the athletes.

1981
01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:00,760
Speaker 12: And the great part about these sports, and I don't

1982
01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:03,280
Speaker 12: mean to take a shot at the NFL, but sometimes

1983
01:29:03,280 --> 01:29:05,760
Speaker 12: you just can't ask dumb questions in the NFL, and

1984
01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:09,080
Speaker 12: these sports you absolutely can. And so I asked a

1985
01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:10,920
Speaker 12: lot of dumb questions and I learned a lot. And

1986
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:14,719
Speaker 12: these athletes were gracious with their time, they were candid,

1987
01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:18,760
Speaker 12: they were refreshing, refreshingly honest, I mean like they were.

1988
01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:20,800
Speaker 12: There were times when they wanted to know more about

1989
01:29:20,840 --> 01:29:22,960
Speaker 12: my job than I was able to ask them about theirs,

1990
01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:25,680
Speaker 12: Like they were fascinated with the Philip Rivers story when

1991
01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:28,519
Speaker 12: that was happening in late December, and I was like

1992
01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:31,360
Speaker 12: guys like you ski down a mountain at ninety miles

1993
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:33,600
Speaker 12: an hour, Like that's more interesting right now to me?

1994
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 6: They were great. I've had so much fun getting to

1995
01:29:36,920 --> 01:29:38,040
Speaker 6: know some of these athletes.

1996
01:29:38,439 --> 01:29:40,280
Speaker 12: And the other thing is, like, I don't think the

1997
01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:43,519
Speaker 12: reader wants me to be describing like a double core

1998
01:29:43,640 --> 01:29:47,519
Speaker 12: ten eighty aerial backslip jump, you know, like, you know,

1999
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:49,479
Speaker 12: don't know what that is? Can I be honest, like

2000
01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:51,679
Speaker 12: I don't know what that is. The reader probably doesn't

2001
01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:54,919
Speaker 12: know what that is. So instead of going super super technical,

2002
01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:58,480
Speaker 12: I can write about who these people are and they're fascinating.

2003
01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:00,599
Speaker 12: I wrote about, you know, a woman one who quit

2004
01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:03,680
Speaker 12: the sport at twenty and became a plumber and then

2005
01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:05,479
Speaker 12: got back into it a couple of years ago and

2006
01:30:05,640 --> 01:30:06,479
Speaker 12: got to compete in.

2007
01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:08,439
Speaker 6: The halfpipe in the Olympics a couple days ago.

2008
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:12,519
Speaker 12: And Ryan Cochran Siegel works at his family's maple syrup

2009
01:30:12,600 --> 01:30:14,960
Speaker 12: farm in Vermont, and oh, by the way, won a

2010
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,439
Speaker 12: silver medal, beat the biggest best skier in the world

2011
01:30:18,479 --> 01:30:22,719
Speaker 12: from Switzerland in the process, and one another silver medal

2012
01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:24,160
Speaker 12: that no one thought he was going to win. So

2013
01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:26,920
Speaker 12: it's been awesome. Nick Yepper is a really cool dude.

2014
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:29,960
Speaker 12: He's going for a sports medal tonight. That dude grew

2015
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,160
Speaker 12: up going to Perfect North slopes in southern Indiana. Anyone

2016
01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:36,160
Speaker 12: listening out there has ever been to Perfect North. It

2017
01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:38,559
Speaker 12: is not an Olympic training ground. And I asked him

2018
01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:40,320
Speaker 12: about that and he said, look, if I grew up

2019
01:30:40,320 --> 01:30:42,519
Speaker 12: in Vail, I get to do one run an hour

2020
01:30:42,720 --> 01:30:45,160
Speaker 12: because it's so crowded. I grew up a Perfect North,

2021
01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:47,160
Speaker 12: I could do fifteen runs an hour. And that's how

2022
01:30:47,160 --> 01:30:50,719
Speaker 12: he got really good. So it's been really refreshing. And No, James,

2023
01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:54,200
Speaker 12: you will not see me interviewing NFL players next week

2024
01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:55,479
Speaker 12: at the combos.

2025
01:30:56,080 --> 01:30:58,240
Speaker 5: Zach, first off, thanks for the TOM. I know you're

2026
01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:02,280
Speaker 5: insanely busy, so I appreciate you making time for us.

2027
01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:04,679
Speaker 5: It has this created an itch to cover, and let's

2028
01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:08,200
Speaker 5: just stick with the Winter Games like any other particular events,

2029
01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:11,160
Speaker 5: you know, obviously another Winter Olympics is do you wish

2030
01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:13,360
Speaker 5: there was a you know, a story that you've come

2031
01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:16,840
Speaker 5: across that you could have covered here, whether it's you know,

2032
01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:19,280
Speaker 5: maybe not in Courtina, maybe more in the Milan area,

2033
01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:22,479
Speaker 5: just kind of what's your first experience been like from

2034
01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:23,360
Speaker 5: that aspect of it?

2035
01:31:24,880 --> 01:31:27,479
Speaker 12: Yeah, I would have loved to see the Kayla Shiffriends

2036
01:31:27,520 --> 01:31:30,480
Speaker 12: winning gold middle ringning run a couple of days ago,

2037
01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:33,120
Speaker 12: like seeing her crouched down at the end and the

2038
01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:35,120
Speaker 12: way she talked about her dad at the end and

2039
01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:37,320
Speaker 12: how he wasn't there, Like that hit home for me,

2040
01:31:37,400 --> 01:31:38,720
Speaker 12: And that was just a really.

2041
01:31:38,880 --> 01:31:40,679
Speaker 6: Remarkable press conference. I thought.

2042
01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:44,240
Speaker 12: The other thing is like, I mean we were absolutely

2043
01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:46,200
Speaker 12: drained right now, Like I don't know what day it is,

2044
01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:49,160
Speaker 12: like we are absolutely on our last legs. I think

2045
01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:51,160
Speaker 12: I have two more days of coverage than I fly home.

2046
01:31:51,200 --> 01:31:54,599
Speaker 12: But it's so fun because the energy is so high

2047
01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:58,000
Speaker 12: and the stakes are so high every day for these athletes,

2048
01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:01,400
Speaker 12: Like every event you're at, even if you don't know

2049
01:32:01,439 --> 01:32:03,160
Speaker 12: like what the story is going in or you're not

2050
01:32:03,160 --> 01:32:05,519
Speaker 12: that expected to be there because it's like the sixth

2051
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:08,280
Speaker 12: event you've covered in four days, Like it's the biggest

2052
01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:09,560
Speaker 12: moment of someone's.

2053
01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:11,720
Speaker 6: Life, a lot of people's lives, and when you talk

2054
01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:13,679
Speaker 6: to them, it really comes through and it's really cool.

2055
01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:15,360
Speaker 6: And I've seen a lot of tears.

2056
01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:18,440
Speaker 12: Both good and bad this week and it's been refreshing,

2057
01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:21,160
Speaker 12: you know, like the NFL has owned my life for

2058
01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:24,160
Speaker 12: like I don't know, twelve years now, thirteen years, and

2059
01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:28,080
Speaker 12: it can feel monotonous. This has felt completely different, but

2060
01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:30,080
Speaker 12: it's been refreshing in a lot of ways. It's been

2061
01:32:30,120 --> 01:32:33,200
Speaker 12: fun to talk to different athletes with different stories. And

2062
01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,880
Speaker 12: I think, you know, I've been a sportswriter for quite

2063
01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:37,600
Speaker 12: a while now, I feel like it's good to be

2064
01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:40,400
Speaker 12: challenged as you go through your career and do things

2065
01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:42,920
Speaker 12: that are uncomfortable and do things that are really hard,

2066
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:46,000
Speaker 12: like me writing about scheme like that shouldn't have happened.

2067
01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:47,120
Speaker 6: Like I don't know what I'm doing.

2068
01:32:47,160 --> 01:32:48,599
Speaker 12: I'm not a very good skier any of the other

2069
01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:50,800
Speaker 12: but I can tell a story and it's been fun

2070
01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:52,840
Speaker 12: to be challenged in that way and try something new.

2071
01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:55,800
Speaker 12: And I actually kind of know what I'm doing on

2072
01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:58,920
Speaker 12: day nineteen of twenty one, so when I got here,

2073
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,240
Speaker 12: my head was spinning, but I figured a few things out.

2074
01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:02,040
Speaker 6: It's been a blast.

2075
01:33:02,360 --> 01:33:02,559
Speaker 2: Zach.

2076
01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:05,600
Speaker 5: I'm struck by this watching from Afar. I'm curious if

2077
01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:09,160
Speaker 5: you've experienced it in person. I get obviously more people

2078
01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:11,720
Speaker 5: are watching the Super Bowl, of course, but like I

2079
01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:15,320
Speaker 5: would argue the fact that it's every four years, I'm

2080
01:33:15,320 --> 01:33:19,640
Speaker 5: not sure if there is pressure for these individual athletes

2081
01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:22,719
Speaker 5: anywhere else in the world. I mean, and I probably

2082
01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:25,960
Speaker 5: am speaking specifically to like watching the figure skaters and

2083
01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:28,799
Speaker 5: see some of them not even like perform the routine

2084
01:33:28,840 --> 01:33:31,880
Speaker 5: they have prepared, Like it's not like they do the

2085
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:33,920
Speaker 5: routine that they were thinking they were gonna do and

2086
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:35,599
Speaker 5: they just don't do it well. But no, no, no,

2087
01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:37,479
Speaker 5: they get so nervous out there they don't even do

2088
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:42,400
Speaker 5: the actual routine because of the nerves and the magnitude

2089
01:33:42,439 --> 01:33:44,160
Speaker 5: of every four years, and you might only get one

2090
01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:46,679
Speaker 5: crack at it, depending on your event and your age.

2091
01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:49,160
Speaker 5: Have you felt that, I don't know, maybe the snowboarders

2092
01:33:49,160 --> 01:33:51,920
Speaker 5: are more chill so you don't feel that. But have you,

2093
01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:54,320
Speaker 5: you know, kind of felt the magnitude of what a

2094
01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:57,840
Speaker 5: pressure is like at an Olympic Games where you know,

2095
01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:00,240
Speaker 5: it's not even like golf or tennis where you a

2096
01:34:00,280 --> 01:34:02,240
Speaker 5: major you know you get four of them every year.

2097
01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:05,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what makes it so special.

2098
01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:08,840
Speaker 12: The drama is very real, Like it is very tangible.

2099
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:11,559
Speaker 12: You can feel it, you can see it, and you

2100
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:16,240
Speaker 12: can absolutely spear it in the athletes's words afterwards. I mean,

2101
01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:18,400
Speaker 12: Nick Yeppert just told me a half hour ago. Now,

2102
01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:21,680
Speaker 12: he just crushed his qualifying run. He was perfect, and

2103
01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:24,639
Speaker 12: he'll be the second guy to go tonight in finals

2104
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:26,760
Speaker 12: and one of the favorites. And he said he woke

2105
01:34:26,840 --> 01:34:29,320
Speaker 12: up this morning and was crying in his bathroom because he.

2106
01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:32,800
Speaker 6: Was just so like nervous, like this is four years.

2107
01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:37,160
Speaker 12: Of waiting for these athletes, and Ilia Melinan, the figure skater,

2108
01:34:37,280 --> 01:34:40,040
Speaker 12: like I'm not in Milan. But for him to stand

2109
01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,040
Speaker 12: up to the cameras afterwards and said like it was

2110
01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:44,280
Speaker 12: too big of a moment for me. I'm paraphrasing that.

2111
01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:47,080
Speaker 12: It's essentially what he said, like the nerves got to him,

2112
01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:50,599
Speaker 12: Like that's real, and that's I think it's you know,

2113
01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:52,599
Speaker 12: as sports journalist, I think that's what we're all kind

2114
01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:54,880
Speaker 12: of chasing, right, is the real, the good, the bad.

2115
01:34:55,560 --> 01:34:57,280
Speaker 12: But we don't want the pr stuff. We don't want

2116
01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:58,840
Speaker 12: the fake stuff. And I think in the NFL you

2117
01:34:58,920 --> 01:35:00,920
Speaker 12: deal with a lot of that, a lot of that

2118
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:02,920
Speaker 12: coach speak or whatever you want to call it, and

2119
01:35:02,960 --> 01:35:04,519
Speaker 12: there's just not been a lot of that, and you

2120
01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:06,639
Speaker 12: can feel it out here and it's just really fun

2121
01:35:07,240 --> 01:35:09,439
Speaker 12: to hear the real stuff from the athletes. I just

2122
01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:13,360
Speaker 12: talked to Hunter hess who was trashed by President Trump

2123
01:35:13,400 --> 01:35:15,080
Speaker 12: a couple of weeks ago, and I asked him what's

2124
01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:17,000
Speaker 12: it like to be called a loser by the president?

2125
01:35:17,640 --> 01:35:19,200
Speaker 6: And he said it was like the hardest.

2126
01:35:18,880 --> 01:35:21,520
Speaker 12: Two weeks of his life, but because of his teammates,

2127
01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:23,040
Speaker 12: they picked him back up and he had a really

2128
01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:26,320
Speaker 12: good qualifying run as well. So it just feels like

2129
01:35:26,400 --> 01:35:28,920
Speaker 12: a world away from what I'm used to. And it

2130
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:33,240
Speaker 12: is obviously both like in literal sense but also figuratively.

2131
01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:36,240
Speaker 4: So none of the athletes Zach have told you they

2132
01:35:36,240 --> 01:35:37,880
Speaker 4: have to watch the film, Will you ask them what

2133
01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:38,559
Speaker 4: happened out there?

2134
01:35:39,479 --> 01:35:41,679
Speaker 6: I haven't been I haven't been told that one time, James.

2135
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:47,160
Speaker 12: I just realized that that just made my day.

2136
01:35:47,640 --> 01:35:50,200
Speaker 1: Is there a singular thing that sticks out in your

2137
01:35:50,240 --> 01:35:52,920
Speaker 1: mind when you think back a year from now, two

2138
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:55,200
Speaker 1: years from now, five years from now. I go, man,

2139
01:35:55,240 --> 01:35:59,599
Speaker 1: I'll never forget that about this international competition and being.

2140
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:02,320
Speaker 2: In just dropped into the middle of it and living it.

2141
01:36:03,960 --> 01:36:05,759
Speaker 12: Yeah, tell me if you guys have ever heard something

2142
01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:08,479
Speaker 12: like this, I certainly have not in the NFL or

2143
01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:10,160
Speaker 12: college basketball or pro basketball.

2144
01:36:10,160 --> 01:36:11,400
Speaker 6: Maybe so.

2145
01:36:11,479 --> 01:36:13,479
Speaker 12: Chloe Kim is going for history right in the half

2146
01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:16,639
Speaker 12: pipe last week. She's the best female snowboarder ever. She's

2147
01:36:16,640 --> 01:36:19,400
Speaker 12: a stud. Now she's injured, but she's still in first

2148
01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:21,799
Speaker 12: place after one run at the halfpipe.

2149
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:26,400
Speaker 6: Miles Garrett's here, he's watching. She just looks and snowboards

2150
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:27,560
Speaker 6: better and faster.

2151
01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:29,400
Speaker 12: And higher than every other female, Like you can just

2152
01:36:29,520 --> 01:36:32,360
Speaker 12: tell when you're out here. And there's a competitor from

2153
01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:35,639
Speaker 12: South Korea who has this nasty fall in the first run,

2154
01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:37,080
Speaker 12: and it was nasty.

2155
01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:38,439
Speaker 6: She was limping the rest of the night.

2156
01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:41,120
Speaker 12: And Chloe goes over to her at the top of

2157
01:36:41,120 --> 01:36:43,599
Speaker 12: the hill and says, shake it off, you got it.

2158
01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:48,120
Speaker 12: You're a great snowboarder, literally encouraging the girl that would

2159
01:36:48,160 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 12: take the gold medal from her, because that South Korean

2160
01:36:51,400 --> 01:36:54,320
Speaker 12: snowboarder wound and had a great run and just edged

2161
01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:55,559
Speaker 12: Chloe for the gold medal.

2162
01:36:55,600 --> 01:36:57,040
Speaker 6: So Chloe could have had history.

2163
01:36:57,520 --> 01:37:00,439
Speaker 12: She could have stamped herself as the only female, you know,

2164
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:03,320
Speaker 12: three peat winner of the half pipe in the Olympic history.

2165
01:37:04,320 --> 01:37:06,000
Speaker 12: I just I don't think you're ever going to hear

2166
01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:08,559
Speaker 12: that in the NFL. And maybe that's a good thing, right,

2167
01:37:09,040 --> 01:37:12,599
Speaker 12: Like an opponent is encouraging someone else on the other

2168
01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:15,400
Speaker 12: team to do their best and to take something that

2169
01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:19,000
Speaker 12: they want. It was a simple moment of sportsmanship. It

2170
01:37:19,040 --> 01:37:22,439
Speaker 12: was refreshing. It was really cool. And the South Korean,

2171
01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:24,920
Speaker 12: you know, she calls Chloe her idol, and to have

2172
01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:26,680
Speaker 12: that happen and to be there and to kind of

2173
01:37:26,680 --> 01:37:27,040
Speaker 12: see it.

2174
01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:28,840
Speaker 6: All unfold, it is really cool.

2175
01:37:28,920 --> 01:37:31,160
Speaker 12: If easy to get zaded in this job, and this

2176
01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:33,840
Speaker 12: last couple of weeks have really done the opposite for me.

2177
01:37:33,880 --> 01:37:35,160
Speaker 6: It's been really revitalizing.

2178
01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:37,120
Speaker 1: Good stuff, Zach.

2179
01:37:37,160 --> 01:37:38,800
Speaker 2: Thanks for taking the time out for us.

2180
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:40,720
Speaker 1: I know you're busy out there. I know you're going

2181
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:43,200
Speaker 1: to probably need a week or two to decompress when

2182
01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:46,320
Speaker 1: you get home, but great stuff. We've been reading Travel

2183
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:48,080
Speaker 1: Safe and we'll talk to you when you get home.

2184
01:37:48,240 --> 01:37:48,800
Speaker 5: Thanks Zach.

2185
01:37:49,600 --> 01:37:50,839
Speaker 6: Thanks guys, have a good one.

2186
01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:53,320
Speaker 1: You too. Yeah, you think about the National Football League

2187
01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:54,920
Speaker 1: a guy. I'll just take a guy out in the

2188
01:37:54,920 --> 01:37:56,960
Speaker 1: first quarter and look down at him and go, yeah,

2189
01:37:56,960 --> 01:37:58,080
Speaker 1: I won't be here all day long.

2190
01:37:59,200 --> 01:37:59,880
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2191
01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:02,400
Speaker 4: Honestly, when he said that, that made me think of Philip Rivers.

2192
01:38:02,439 --> 01:38:04,200
Speaker 4: He's kind of like that to a degree, at least

2193
01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:06,280
Speaker 4: after the game. But I do want to say this,

2194
01:38:06,360 --> 01:38:08,760
Speaker 4: and I'll tell him this on his own, and he'll

2195
01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:10,560
Speaker 4: tell me to shut up. But Zach has earned that

2196
01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,400
Speaker 4: opportunity to go cover the Olympics. I know he's done

2197
01:38:13,400 --> 01:38:15,000
Speaker 4: a lot of great work at the Athletic and really

2198
01:38:15,680 --> 01:38:19,160
Speaker 4: throughout his journalism career, but he is truly one of

2199
01:38:19,200 --> 01:38:21,960
Speaker 4: the best in the business. So him saying, oh, how

2200
01:38:21,960 --> 01:38:23,760
Speaker 4: did I end up here, it's because he put in

2201
01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:25,519
Speaker 4: a lot of work and he's been great for a

2202
01:38:25,520 --> 01:38:28,400
Speaker 4: long time. So he's one of those writers where when

2203
01:38:28,439 --> 01:38:30,519
Speaker 4: I see something that he's written, I don't care what

2204
01:38:30,560 --> 01:38:31,000
Speaker 4: it's about.

2205
01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:32,000
Speaker 3: I'll usually click on it.

2206
01:38:32,040 --> 01:38:34,519
Speaker 5: Well, in the Olympics are so much about storytelling. Yeah,

2207
01:38:34,600 --> 01:38:37,519
Speaker 5: we don't know these athletes, right, and or at least

2208
01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:40,080
Speaker 5: a lot a large portion of them, so and Zach

2209
01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:43,160
Speaker 5: is the ultimate storyteller. So I will echo all of

2210
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:47,679
Speaker 5: that very well deserved and hopefully he'll be at everything

2211
01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:48,120
Speaker 5: he knew.

2212
01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:49,320
Speaker 3: About the Colts beat. And then he left me.

2213
01:38:49,880 --> 01:38:53,840
Speaker 1: Speaking of the Colts, odds are out from DraftKings for

2214
01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:56,639
Speaker 1: over unders the ideas on what they've got the Colts

2215
01:38:56,640 --> 01:38:57,160
Speaker 1: at right now.

2216
01:38:57,200 --> 01:38:59,519
Speaker 4: I'm putting a nine eight and a half wins because

2217
01:38:59,520 --> 01:39:01,719
Speaker 4: that's usually where they're rubbing around.

2218
01:39:01,880 --> 01:39:03,439
Speaker 5: They've been eight and a half ten years in a row.

2219
01:39:03,479 --> 01:39:04,960
Speaker 5: And I think they're eight and a half again this year, right,

2220
01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:05,400
Speaker 5: you are.

2221
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:08,160
Speaker 1: Correct eight and a half right now? Yeah, Texas, but

2222
01:39:08,240 --> 01:39:10,599
Speaker 1: the division, the division is there to be had.

2223
01:39:10,920 --> 01:39:14,200
Speaker 2: Oh no, Houston is nine and a half. Jacksonville's nine

2224
01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:15,000
Speaker 2: and a half.

2225
01:39:16,240 --> 01:39:18,400
Speaker 5: In eleven years about say, Jeff, are we trying to

2226
01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:19,639
Speaker 5: keep listening to the show?

2227
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:22,320
Speaker 3: Brother man? It's funny that you can literally.

2228
01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:25,240
Speaker 4: Like take that and clip it and then replay it

2229
01:39:25,240 --> 01:39:27,360
Speaker 4: next year in the year after that, because that is

2230
01:39:27,360 --> 01:39:28,760
Speaker 4: you could send twenty one.

2231
01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:29,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I would believed you.

2232
01:39:30,360 --> 01:39:32,519
Speaker 1: So you're not optimistic about a division title.

2233
01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:36,519
Speaker 5: I'm worried about the hammer throw right here?

2234
01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:39,320
Speaker 2: Massive for Tabitha Switzerland.

2235
01:39:39,360 --> 01:39:43,439
Speaker 1: No, that's Team USA. Yeah we we actually Mark actually

2236
01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:46,639
Speaker 1: came in and logged in on his own personal accounts

2237
01:39:46,640 --> 01:39:48,240
Speaker 1: so we could get that up on the TV today.

2238
01:39:48,320 --> 01:39:51,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're welcome because ours is not working here in house.

2239
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:53,040
Speaker 1: So good job.

2240
01:39:53,360 --> 01:39:55,639
Speaker 3: I've seen some random purchases. That's getting that year.

2241
01:39:56,840 --> 01:40:01,840
Speaker 1: Hey, Kevin, Kevin wants to see very end of of

2242
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:05,719
Speaker 1: what was the movie you were looking at yesterday?

2243
01:40:06,040 --> 01:40:08,280
Speaker 5: I wasn't looking to watch any of that, certainly not

2244
01:40:08,360 --> 01:40:08,880
Speaker 5: with you guys.

2245
01:40:11,400 --> 01:40:12,320
Speaker 2: What happened there, Kevin?

2246
01:40:12,520 --> 01:40:14,320
Speaker 5: We all one. So we're down four to three. All right,

2247
01:40:14,840 --> 01:40:17,040
Speaker 5: We're a heavy underdog in this and so the hockey

2248
01:40:17,080 --> 01:40:19,120
Speaker 5: is supposed to roll today. That's what Vegas is telling me.

2249
01:40:19,240 --> 01:40:21,479
Speaker 5: The Vegas is saying Slovakia is not any good in

2250
01:40:21,479 --> 01:40:21,800
Speaker 5: the US.

2251
01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:23,920
Speaker 2: Is gonna roll that should they should.

2252
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:25,440
Speaker 1: But that's what makes me nervous.

2253
01:40:25,680 --> 01:40:29,280
Speaker 5: I also feel like hockey's a little just different finling

2254
01:40:29,439 --> 01:40:33,000
Speaker 5: the other semi finals, a little dice here, more competitive.

2255
01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:34,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what the Vegas.

2256
01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:35,800
Speaker 3: You got to go coach them up.

2257
01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:40,640
Speaker 1: Just get Look. I've had multiple NHL coaches tell me

2258
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:44,519
Speaker 1: when I was covering the league in playoff games, just

2259
01:40:44,640 --> 01:40:47,240
Speaker 1: keep throwing the puck at the net, because weird things happen.

2260
01:40:48,040 --> 01:40:50,320
Speaker 1: The more time the puck spins in front of the net,

2261
01:40:50,640 --> 01:40:53,200
Speaker 1: skate goes off here, you get it off the sometimes

2262
01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:55,719
Speaker 1: the other team gets an omegle. You just keep throwing

2263
01:40:55,720 --> 01:40:57,800
Speaker 1: them at the buck.

2264
01:40:57,320 --> 01:41:00,000
Speaker 4: Throne to the upset in a sport like hockey, because

2265
01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:02,800
Speaker 4: you know, like basketball, you could probably pencil a guy

2266
01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:06,120
Speaker 4: in for twenty points a night, no matter what the

2267
01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:10,000
Speaker 4: setting is in the playoffs, if they're Tyre's Halliburton or

2268
01:41:10,200 --> 01:41:14,160
Speaker 4: Lebron or Kevin Durant, but like you can't pencil someone

2269
01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:16,519
Speaker 4: in for a goal every game. I mean, that'd be great,

2270
01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:19,240
Speaker 4: but typically doesn't happen that way. So we'll see.

2271
01:41:19,320 --> 01:41:21,759
Speaker 1: What is crazy though, when you go back and watch

2272
01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:25,799
Speaker 1: great Game sevens or Olympics or things of that nature,

2273
01:41:26,080 --> 01:41:30,040
Speaker 1: it is crazy to me how often the one or

2274
01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:32,000
Speaker 1: two best players on a team are the guys that

2275
01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:33,920
Speaker 1: do make the difference at the very end. Like we

2276
01:41:33,960 --> 01:41:37,360
Speaker 1: saw what we saw Hughes the other day, one of

2277
01:41:37,360 --> 01:41:40,680
Speaker 1: the best players for the team, and we saw yesterday

2278
01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:45,000
Speaker 1: two of their best players get the goals when it matters, right, Absolutely.

2279
01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:47,759
Speaker 5: Canery Night Right, and she got engaged during the Olympics.

2280
01:41:47,880 --> 01:41:49,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, game time for Hillary Knight.

2281
01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:50,479
Speaker 6: Yeah.

2282
01:41:50,680 --> 01:41:53,679
Speaker 5: Over the week, talk about story. Tom Man, all.

2283
01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:58,439
Speaker 17: Right, Mark Techton, let's check it down, avoiding checkout, dropping

2289
01:42:16,320 --> 01:42:18,760
Speaker 1: for nine point thirty to come all morning long. When

2290
01:42:18,800 --> 01:42:20,840
Speaker 1: John Greenberg's going to stop buy from the athletic and

2291
01:42:21,120 --> 01:42:22,880
Speaker 1: give us the scoop on what's going on with the

2292
01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:27,200
Speaker 1: Colts potential or the Bears potential move into Indiana. You

2293
01:42:27,240 --> 01:42:27,880
Speaker 1: excited for that?

2294
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:28,400
Speaker 6: Yeah?

2295
01:42:28,439 --> 01:42:30,200
Speaker 3: I need the latest, I need the scoops. I need

2296
01:42:30,200 --> 01:42:31,720
Speaker 3: to know what zip code we're playing in.

2297
01:42:32,760 --> 01:42:37,160
Speaker 1: Well, this all comes after a bill has been introduced

2298
01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:39,800
Speaker 1: and voted on by the Indiana lawmakers and the State

2299
01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:42,840
Speaker 1: House Ways and Means Committee to have unanimously approved an

2300
01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:46,240
Speaker 1: amendment James to Indiana State Bill twenty seven by a

2301
01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,920
Speaker 1: vote of twenty four to nothing that would clear a

2302
01:42:48,960 --> 01:42:52,280
Speaker 1: path for the Bears to build the stadium in Hammond, Indiana.

2303
01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:54,160
Speaker 2: I got a new slogan.

2304
01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:57,120
Speaker 1: For you, Mark's let's go slamming for Hammond. What do

2305
01:42:57,200 --> 01:42:57,479
Speaker 1: you think?

2306
01:42:58,920 --> 01:42:59,439
Speaker 3: That's okay?

2307
01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:01,080
Speaker 1: All right, I think you'd like it.

2308
01:43:01,080 --> 01:43:04,080
Speaker 4: But my question I'll ask John this later is where

2309
01:43:04,120 --> 01:43:05,960
Speaker 4: did the money come from? That's what I want to know.

2310
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:10,160
Speaker 4: People always want to make, you know, decisions, declarations. Let

2311
01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:11,160
Speaker 4: me know how you're paying for it.

2312
01:43:11,160 --> 01:43:13,240
Speaker 8: We talk about there's gold in the dunes, what are

2313
01:43:13,240 --> 01:43:15,240
Speaker 8: you talking about the times we got to make a trip?

2314
01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:19,240
Speaker 1: Brother and Kevin, you had pointed out really it's not

2315
01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:21,519
Speaker 1: going to affect the Colts at all, right, if that happened,

2316
01:43:21,560 --> 01:43:23,559
Speaker 1: not that it necessarily will happen, but if it did,

2317
01:43:23,560 --> 01:43:25,440
Speaker 1: it doesn't really affect the Colts because.

2318
01:43:25,160 --> 01:43:26,800
Speaker 5: I don't think so. I mean, if you want to

2319
01:43:26,840 --> 01:43:29,280
Speaker 5: get technical, and you have hopes and dreams of another

2320
01:43:29,360 --> 01:43:32,200
Speaker 5: Super Bowl here in the state of Indiana, the fact

2321
01:43:32,240 --> 01:43:34,640
Speaker 5: that they would build a new stadium in Hammond, I

2322
01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:36,680
Speaker 5: would assume typically in the NFL, if you build a

2323
01:43:36,720 --> 01:43:39,960
Speaker 5: new stadium, the super Bowl will come. So I guess

2324
01:43:40,120 --> 01:43:42,080
Speaker 5: the state might get a Super Bowl if people care

2325
01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:44,479
Speaker 5: about that, and it won't be Lukashola Stadium. And I'll

2326
01:43:44,520 --> 01:43:44,760
Speaker 5: like it.

2327
01:43:45,520 --> 01:43:48,719
Speaker 1: On his social media account that Indiana Governor Mike Brown wrote,

2328
01:43:48,760 --> 01:43:52,240
Speaker 1: Indiana is open for business and our pro growth environment

2329
01:43:52,280 --> 01:43:55,640
Speaker 1: continues to attract major opportunities like this partnership with the

2330
01:43:55,720 --> 01:43:56,679
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears.

2331
01:43:57,000 --> 01:43:58,720
Speaker 3: I'm wait for him to drop the first check on

2332
01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:00,920
Speaker 3: the stadium right NBA.

2333
01:44:01,040 --> 01:44:03,320
Speaker 1: Last night, the Indiana Pacers returned from the All Star

2334
01:44:03,400 --> 01:44:06,240
Speaker 1: break and they came close but lose to the Washington

2335
01:44:06,240 --> 01:44:08,640
Speaker 1: Wizards won twelve to one oh five, and believe it

2336
01:44:08,720 --> 01:44:09,280
Speaker 1: or not, a lot.

2337
01:44:09,200 --> 01:44:12,320
Speaker 9: Of Pacers fans are happy about that. Today James believe

2338
01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:14,800
Speaker 9: it or not. I mean you could take that preference out. Yes,

2339
01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:17,919
Speaker 9: they are happy about that. Losing helps them long term,

2340
01:44:18,040 --> 01:44:19,640
Speaker 9: all right. Injury wise breaks the pain.

2341
01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:23,240
Speaker 1: Jeff Aaron nee Smith twisted an ankle and left the game.

2342
01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:26,599
Speaker 1: Did not return. Cam Jones hurt his back, and we

2343
01:44:26,640 --> 01:44:31,479
Speaker 1: also saw that Andrew Nemhart played limited minutes and not

2344
01:44:31,760 --> 01:44:33,120
Speaker 1: much in the second half.

2345
01:44:33,160 --> 01:44:35,759
Speaker 5: Either exited with five to go in the third quarter

2346
01:44:36,280 --> 01:44:40,000
Speaker 5: for I'll say it tanking reasons and never returned to

2347
01:44:40,080 --> 01:44:42,280
Speaker 5: the game. That was one of the worst NBA crowds

2348
01:44:42,280 --> 01:44:44,240
Speaker 5: I've ever seen in my life.

2349
01:44:44,479 --> 01:44:47,880
Speaker 1: Nobody there, just very few people said if you bought

2350
01:44:47,880 --> 01:44:49,800
Speaker 1: a ticket, Jeff, you would get one section.

2351
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:52,280
Speaker 2: Yes, a special right, buy a ticket to your onside.

2352
01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:55,000
Speaker 5: Text to Tony East, who is there? I goes, it

2353
01:44:55,040 --> 01:44:57,639
Speaker 5: looks horrific on TV, and he literally goes, that is

2354
01:44:57,800 --> 01:45:00,760
Speaker 5: it is the fewest people I've ever seen an NBA game.

2355
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:04,320
Speaker 1: Well, maybe they're all waiting for the Friday night rematched. Tonight,

2356
01:45:04,600 --> 01:45:08,560
Speaker 1: Washington will once again host the Pacers seven o'clock in

2357
01:45:08,760 --> 01:45:11,840
Speaker 1: Optimism airtime six thirty Here at ninety three five one

2358
01:45:11,920 --> 01:45:12,599
Speaker 1: oh seven five.

2359
01:45:12,680 --> 01:45:15,519
Speaker 2: The fan We've been talking about the Olympics curling.

2360
01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:18,000
Speaker 1: It is for to three right now after how many

2361
01:45:18,120 --> 01:45:20,880
Speaker 1: ends Kevin switzerlmen in the United States like.

2362
01:45:20,880 --> 01:45:23,240
Speaker 5: That to go here and then and shout out to

2363
01:45:23,320 --> 01:45:25,880
Speaker 5: Nick Gepper, as Zach Keeper just mentioned with us the

2364
01:45:25,960 --> 01:45:29,479
Speaker 5: lawrenceburg the veteran of the winner Olympics, second in his

2365
01:45:29,600 --> 01:45:31,800
Speaker 5: qualified runs this morning. So he's got a chance here

2366
01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:36,200
Speaker 5: for a medal coming up later today, and I believe

2367
01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:40,479
Speaker 5: that would be He's definitely won multiple medals before, so

2368
01:45:40,640 --> 01:45:41,559
Speaker 5: adding to the count there.

2369
01:45:41,600 --> 01:45:42,000
Speaker 6: That was cool.

2370
01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:44,080
Speaker 5: You know, he shared that story about the perfect North

2371
01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:47,320
Speaker 5: Slopes versus growing up in Vail or something like that.

2372
01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:50,400
Speaker 5: So Nick Keepper locally not a lot of Winter Olympians,

2373
01:45:50,400 --> 01:45:53,000
Speaker 5: but we've got one here going for a medal later today.

2374
01:45:53,200 --> 01:45:56,280
Speaker 1: All right, Team USA women win the gold medal in hockey.

2375
01:45:56,360 --> 01:45:59,360
Speaker 1: Yesterday they tied the game on a six on five

2376
01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:01,679
Speaker 1: pulled the only from the net move with less than

2377
01:46:01,840 --> 01:46:03,800
Speaker 1: a minute and a half for mating and regulation. Then

2378
01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:08,639
Speaker 1: they win it on a Megan Keller just unbelievable play.

2379
01:46:08,439 --> 01:46:10,400
Speaker 2: In front of the net for tim USA.

2380
01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:14,200
Speaker 1: You likened it to just a nasty crossover in basketball, James.

2381
01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:16,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was Alan Iverson on Michael Jordan as a rookie,

2382
01:46:16,880 --> 01:46:20,360
Speaker 4: I mean just sick. And honestly, if you're the opponent

2383
01:46:20,720 --> 01:46:23,800
Speaker 4: in that situation, Jeff, it obviously stings, but.

2384
01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:25,400
Speaker 3: You got to just tip your cap. That was a

2385
01:46:25,439 --> 01:46:25,880
Speaker 3: great move.

2386
01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:28,960
Speaker 1: Today the men will play in a semi final game

2387
01:46:28,960 --> 01:46:32,799
Speaker 1: against Slovakia. That one starts at three ten. Also yesterday

2388
01:46:32,840 --> 01:46:36,640
Speaker 1: at La Salou wins gold and figure skating for the Americans,

2389
01:46:37,040 --> 01:46:40,240
Speaker 1: first time in over twenty years that they've won in

2390
01:46:40,320 --> 01:46:44,400
Speaker 1: women's figure skating, a gold medal for the individual there

2391
01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:47,880
Speaker 1: what else do we have? Girls have semi state starting

2392
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:49,599
Speaker 1: this weekend tonight. As a matter of fact, right.

2393
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:51,800
Speaker 3: James, semi state is tomorrow.

2394
01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:53,000
Speaker 5: That I don't play it.

2395
01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:54,719
Speaker 2: No games tonight at all, No games tonight.

2396
01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:57,599
Speaker 4: Semi state is tomorrow, and obviously that is a chance

2397
01:46:57,640 --> 01:47:00,880
Speaker 4: to go to the state final. The bigger matchups that

2398
01:47:00,960 --> 01:47:04,479
Speaker 4: I'll be looking at, at least through social media is

2399
01:47:04,800 --> 01:47:07,840
Speaker 4: over at Jasper where they also have Laurence Central on

2400
01:47:07,840 --> 01:47:10,479
Speaker 4: one side of the bracket, and then they have Center Grove,

2401
01:47:10,520 --> 01:47:12,240
Speaker 4: which is undefeated on the other side of the bracket.

2402
01:47:12,360 --> 01:47:15,280
Speaker 4: Lawrence is led by McDonald's All American, and like I said,

2403
01:47:15,479 --> 01:47:19,160
Speaker 4: the Center Grove is just their unblemish. So if they

2404
01:47:19,200 --> 01:47:21,000
Speaker 4: meet in the in the final, that would be the

2405
01:47:21,080 --> 01:47:21,960
Speaker 4: game to keep an eye on.

2406
01:47:22,080 --> 01:47:24,760
Speaker 1: All Right, and tonight, Mackie, we'll host another edition of

2407
01:47:24,800 --> 01:47:26,639
Speaker 1: Purdue Indiana men's basketball.

2408
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:29,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, just to update everybody high school wise, those semi

2409
01:47:29,160 --> 01:47:31,320
Speaker 5: states are back to the two game format. I know

2410
01:47:31,400 --> 01:47:34,439
Speaker 5: regionals and semi states have kind of flip flopped with

2411
01:47:34,640 --> 01:47:36,720
Speaker 5: that format. You know, regionals used to bring back to

2412
01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:39,280
Speaker 5: the old format. So semi state you will get a

2413
01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:42,599
Speaker 5: morning session and then a night session. There bring back.

2414
01:47:42,479 --> 01:47:44,760
Speaker 3: Single class basketball.

2415
01:47:44,800 --> 01:47:47,679
Speaker 5: That sounds like a July tenth top for us here. Yeah,

2416
01:47:47,680 --> 01:47:51,040
Speaker 5: tonight and Mackie can't wait watch meetingless basketball last night

2417
01:47:51,040 --> 01:47:54,519
Speaker 5: pacerss Wizards. It won't be meetingless tonight at all. Purdue

2418
01:47:54,560 --> 01:47:57,640
Speaker 5: and Indiana a ten and a half point favorite. I

2419
01:47:57,680 --> 01:47:59,720
Speaker 5: was surprised to see that big of a number for

2420
01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:01,920
Speaker 5: the one of the makers. Of course, Indiana won the

2421
01:48:01,920 --> 01:48:05,920
Speaker 5: first matchup. Nick Dorn very good, Braden Smith pretty quiet,

2422
01:48:05,960 --> 01:48:09,200
Speaker 5: although overall size of Purdue not really asserting itself in

2423
01:48:09,240 --> 01:48:11,760
Speaker 5: that game. So eight o'clock tonight, inside of Mackie, you

2424
01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:14,920
Speaker 5: can watch that on Fox with Gus Johnson on the call.

2426
01:48:17,800 --> 01:48:21,360

01:48:27,920 --> 01:48:29,720
Speaker 2: I like that, all right, Phil Drew.

2432
01:48:30,080 --> 01:48:32,960

2441
01:49:15,560 --> 01:49:19,840
Speaker 1: of the Chicago Bears moving into Hammond, Indiana, after the

2442
01:49:19,840 --> 01:49:23,200
Speaker 1: Indiana State Legislature started to clear some hurdles yesterday.

2443
01:49:22,840 --> 01:49:23,960
Speaker 2: To try and make that happen.

2444
01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:26,679
Speaker 1: We are joined now by John Greenberg of the Athletic

2445
01:49:26,720 --> 01:49:29,519
Speaker 1: He's been covering this thing all along, and I'm sure

2446
01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:31,559
Speaker 1: this is not what you had on your bingo card

2447
01:49:31,600 --> 01:49:34,240
Speaker 1: coming into the off season, John, but here we are.

2448
01:49:34,360 --> 01:49:35,519
Speaker 2: So what do we know so far?

2449
01:49:36,520 --> 01:49:36,800
Speaker 13: Well?

2450
01:49:36,840 --> 01:49:39,600
Speaker 7: Hey, you know, I mean, listen, we knew once Indiana,

2451
01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:42,559
Speaker 7: you know, kind of got in the mix. We knew

2452
01:49:42,600 --> 01:49:45,920
Speaker 7: they'd come up with a pretty good I'm trying to

2453
01:49:45,920 --> 01:49:48,160
Speaker 7: think of the word like a process, a pretty good plan,

2454
01:49:48,280 --> 01:49:51,200
Speaker 7: because like they've just they've done this recently, you know,

2455
01:49:51,280 --> 01:49:54,040
Speaker 7: like when they when Speaker of the House Houston was

2456
01:49:54,040 --> 01:49:57,439
Speaker 7: talking yesterday, he mentioned, you know, everything they did with

2457
01:49:57,520 --> 01:50:00,320
Speaker 7: Lucas Oil Stadium, that's basically the same kind of land.

2458
01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:04,280
Speaker 7: In terms of how to fund the infrastructure and fund

2459
01:50:04,320 --> 01:50:06,439
Speaker 7: the building in the stadiums, they kind of had a

2460
01:50:06,479 --> 01:50:10,400
Speaker 7: pretty good blueprint. Now it's a little different, you know,

2461
01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:13,240
Speaker 7: building a new stadium in downtown Indianapolis where the old

2462
01:50:13,280 --> 01:50:17,000
Speaker 7: one was than getting the Bears to move to wolf

2463
01:50:17,080 --> 01:50:21,560
Speaker 7: Lake and Hammond. It's a slightly different kind of process.

2464
01:50:21,640 --> 01:50:23,320
Speaker 2: So plans good.

2465
01:50:23,800 --> 01:50:26,360
Speaker 7: I don't think it's I still think the Bears ended

2466
01:50:26,439 --> 01:50:27,439
Speaker 7: up in Arlington Knights.

2467
01:50:28,400 --> 01:50:30,760
Speaker 4: John Well, first of all, I have a very hard

2468
01:50:30,800 --> 01:50:32,320
Speaker 4: hitting johurnalism question for you.

2469
01:50:32,400 --> 01:50:33,800
Speaker 3: I was texting you last night. I tried to get

2470
01:50:33,800 --> 01:50:34,320
Speaker 3: you on the show.

2471
01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:39,360
Speaker 4: You told me you had a paddle tennis playoffs last night.

2472
01:50:39,880 --> 01:50:40,599
Speaker 3: Did you get a win?

2473
01:50:41,280 --> 01:50:44,080
Speaker 7: Well, it was more of a play in because we

2474
01:50:44,120 --> 01:50:47,320
Speaker 7: had to we basically had to sweep last night in

2475
01:50:47,360 --> 01:50:51,360
Speaker 7: a makeup match, and the team we were chasing had

2476
01:50:51,400 --> 01:50:54,040
Speaker 7: to get you know, had to lose pretty badly.

2477
01:50:54,280 --> 01:50:56,400
Speaker 3: You signed the Chicago Bulls right now, by the way.

2478
01:50:56,520 --> 01:51:01,160
Speaker 7: I know, yeah, but we did sweep one twelve. We

2479
01:51:01,160 --> 01:51:05,160
Speaker 7: swept all our matches, but the other team, we needed

2480
01:51:05,200 --> 01:51:07,679
Speaker 7: the first place team to help us with a sweep,

2481
01:51:07,720 --> 01:51:09,680
Speaker 7: and they could not get that done. They split with

2482
01:51:10,240 --> 01:51:12,559
Speaker 7: the team we're chasing, so we are out of the

2483
01:51:12,560 --> 01:51:15,160
Speaker 7: playoffs from the outside looking in. We missed it by

2484
01:51:15,200 --> 01:51:18,760
Speaker 7: two points. I'm the captain, so you know, I think

2485
01:51:18,800 --> 01:51:21,880
Speaker 7: my job is in jeopardy. My unpaid, high stress job

2486
01:51:22,920 --> 01:51:25,240
Speaker 7: captaining a bunch of other adults in their thirties and

2487
01:51:25,280 --> 01:51:29,519
Speaker 7: forties and fifties and figuring out lineups and dealing with

2488
01:51:29,600 --> 01:51:33,920
Speaker 7: hurt feelings. I think that might be in jeopardy. It's

2489
01:51:33,960 --> 01:51:35,800
Speaker 7: kind of funny because the club I played for a

2490
01:51:35,880 --> 01:51:38,760
Speaker 7: park District and the club that beat us that got

2491
01:51:38,760 --> 01:51:41,639
Speaker 7: in the playoffs, is actually the inspiration for Caddy Shack.

2492
01:51:42,479 --> 01:51:46,080
Speaker 7: So we actually lost to like Judge Smails Club, which

2493
01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:47,920
Speaker 7: is you know, real kick in the teeth.

2494
01:51:48,920 --> 01:51:50,840
Speaker 2: So now we got that out of the way.

2495
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:53,679
Speaker 4: As I told you, you know, I guess you're allowed

2496
01:51:53,680 --> 01:51:55,200
Speaker 4: to stay on the show because when you texted me

2497
01:51:55,240 --> 01:51:56,400
Speaker 4: and say, hey, I got a lock ins and out,

2498
01:51:56,400 --> 01:51:58,240
Speaker 4: I told you, hey, I don't want losers on our airwaves.

2499
01:51:58,479 --> 01:52:00,920
Speaker 4: But you you swept so so I'll give you some

2500
01:52:00,960 --> 01:52:03,840
Speaker 4: grace there. But on jokes aside, I mean, as much

2501
01:52:03,840 --> 01:52:05,920
Speaker 4: as you talk about being you know, a leader for

2502
01:52:05,960 --> 01:52:09,759
Speaker 4: your your your team, which obviously isn't a professional one

2503
01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:13,120
Speaker 4: when it comes to ludship of the Bears, how much

2504
01:52:13,320 --> 01:52:16,080
Speaker 4: of a sticking point has it been to maybe not

2505
01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:18,320
Speaker 4: get the momentum in the backing from the home state,

2506
01:52:18,840 --> 01:52:23,880
Speaker 4: Because I'm not so sure that this even becomes a possibility.

2507
01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:28,320
Speaker 4: Had they had maybe more steps in the last five

2508
01:52:28,439 --> 01:52:32,720
Speaker 4: years to crystallize some things happening all the heights.

2509
01:52:32,880 --> 01:52:34,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I think there's been.

2510
01:52:34,920 --> 01:52:38,360
Speaker 7: I mean, unless no one's ever gonna like praise the

2511
01:52:38,400 --> 01:52:40,960
Speaker 7: way you know Illinois, no one's ever no one's line

2512
01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:43,400
Speaker 7: up to praise Illinois politics. So that's that's one thing

2513
01:52:43,520 --> 01:52:45,040
Speaker 7: they and you know a lot of times they definitely

2514
01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,679
Speaker 7: deserve the criticism. I don't know all the Bears really

2515
01:52:47,720 --> 01:52:51,840
Speaker 7: handled this because this started when they were fighting with

2516
01:52:51,840 --> 01:52:54,479
Speaker 7: with the city in the Park District about like putting

2517
01:52:54,800 --> 01:52:57,640
Speaker 7: a sports betting lounge in Soldier Field, which frankly is

2518
01:52:57,680 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 7: not that big of a deal either way. And then

2519
01:53:00,479 --> 01:53:02,599
Speaker 7: they said, you know what, we're finally actually going to look,

2520
01:53:02,680 --> 01:53:04,080
Speaker 7: you know, and they start thinking about the money they

2521
01:53:04,080 --> 01:53:07,559
Speaker 7: can make outside the stadium, you know, that mixed use development,

2522
01:53:07,560 --> 01:53:10,040
Speaker 7: which is the key here. And they they had been

2523
01:53:10,080 --> 01:53:11,920
Speaker 7: you know, Papa bear house A threatened to move Garlings

2524
01:53:12,000 --> 01:53:15,080
Speaker 7: Knights fifty years ago, so that they brought that back

2525
01:53:15,160 --> 01:53:17,040
Speaker 7: up and they bought the land which was for sale.

2526
01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:18,680
Speaker 7: You know, it was an opportune time to buy it

2527
01:53:18,680 --> 01:53:21,360
Speaker 7: for two hundred million, and that kind of started it.

2528
01:53:21,360 --> 01:53:23,799
Speaker 7: And it started with you know, kind of bad feelings

2529
01:53:23,840 --> 01:53:27,040
Speaker 7: with the city and the Park District even more than

2530
01:53:27,040 --> 01:53:30,679
Speaker 7: the state. And then you know, they hired a new

2531
01:53:30,880 --> 01:53:33,640
Speaker 7: president and Kevin Warren. This deal for Owington Knights was

2532
01:53:33,640 --> 01:53:36,479
Speaker 7: done with the previous president, Ted Phillips, and Kevin Warren

2533
01:53:36,479 --> 01:53:38,120
Speaker 7: didn't want to move to the suburbs. He wanted his

2534
01:53:38,160 --> 01:53:40,479
Speaker 7: own thing. And this is from talking to people inside

2535
01:53:40,520 --> 01:53:44,320
Speaker 7: and around the team and the organization. And then he

2536
01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:46,640
Speaker 7: spent about a year negotiating with the city and that

2537
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:49,240
Speaker 7: was for to build a new stadium next to Soldier Field.

2538
01:53:49,240 --> 01:53:51,920
Speaker 7: It didn't make any sense to anyone, Like it just

2539
01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:55,400
Speaker 7: wasn't realistic. And then they go back to the state again,

2540
01:53:55,439 --> 01:53:58,360
Speaker 7: and I know that there was state reps that you know,

2541
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:01,320
Speaker 7: that represent the city and city districts that were mad

2542
01:54:01,320 --> 01:54:03,040
Speaker 7: about it. They felt like they were lied to and

2543
01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:06,000
Speaker 7: they were used, and so I think that slowed things down.

2544
01:54:06,760 --> 01:54:09,200
Speaker 7: So I think frankly, the Bears deserve a lot of

2545
01:54:09,200 --> 01:54:11,960
Speaker 7: the blame here. Blame the city. You can blame you know,

2546
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:14,640
Speaker 7: Governor Pritzker as well for maybe not taking them so

2547
01:54:14,760 --> 01:54:17,360
Speaker 7: seriously and maybe not putting this to the front. But

2548
01:54:17,520 --> 01:54:19,519
Speaker 7: you know, because what I say, the state's got a

2549
01:54:19,560 --> 01:54:21,240
Speaker 7: lot of issues, and a lot of them are self.

2550
01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:23,360
Speaker 7: You know that you could say it's the state's fault

2551
01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:26,040
Speaker 7: they have these issues. But like a new stadium for

2552
01:54:26,080 --> 01:54:29,240
Speaker 7: the Bears isn't like the number one thing. It really isn't.

2553
01:54:29,280 --> 01:54:31,400
Speaker 7: I think sometimes we pretend sports is a little more

2554
01:54:31,400 --> 01:54:34,400
Speaker 7: important than what it is. But I do think the

2555
01:54:34,440 --> 01:54:37,320
Speaker 7: bears threats to move to Indiana has kind of up

2556
01:54:37,480 --> 01:54:38,200
Speaker 7: sped things up.

2557
01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:38,600
Speaker 3: A little bit.

2558
01:54:38,640 --> 01:54:41,760
Speaker 7: As you know, a leverage play and you know when

2559
01:54:42,440 --> 01:54:46,480
Speaker 7: the other day on Thursday, when Indiana approved everything. Illinois

2560
01:54:46,480 --> 01:54:49,520
Speaker 7: was supposed to have a hearing on the mega Projects bill,

2561
01:54:49,760 --> 01:54:51,360
Speaker 7: and the Bears are the ones that told them to

2562
01:54:51,400 --> 01:54:54,360
Speaker 7: shelve it because they were still working on some language

2563
01:54:54,360 --> 01:54:57,360
Speaker 7: for their you know, for the bill. So I think

2564
01:54:57,360 --> 01:54:59,400
Speaker 7: the Bears kind of tried to make the state look

2565
01:54:59,520 --> 01:55:02,560
Speaker 7: bad on Thursday, and you know, who knows if that's

2566
01:55:02,600 --> 01:55:03,640
Speaker 7: going to throw another wrench in.

2567
01:55:03,680 --> 01:55:07,040
Speaker 8: This John, I was gonna ask that that you kind

2568
01:55:07,040 --> 01:55:09,320
Speaker 8: of answered my own question there, But is that where

2569
01:55:09,320 --> 01:55:11,480
Speaker 8: we're kind of at with the Bears and the state

2570
01:55:11,480 --> 01:55:13,200
Speaker 8: of Illinois that it's kind of like almost a mud

2571
01:55:13,280 --> 01:55:15,520
Speaker 8: slinging at this point, because, like you said, the vote

2572
01:55:15,600 --> 01:55:18,680
Speaker 8: didn't occur, And does the state kind of feel like

2573
01:55:18,760 --> 01:55:21,000
Speaker 8: the Bears are just full of hot air? Like Okay, sure,

2574
01:55:21,200 --> 01:55:23,160
Speaker 8: you're actually going to go to Northwest Indiana. I don't

2575
01:55:23,200 --> 01:55:25,400
Speaker 8: think so. Like are they actually starting to feel the

2576
01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:27,240
Speaker 8: heat a little bit? Like, Okay, this might actually happen,

2577
01:55:27,280 --> 01:55:28,600
Speaker 8: now we might actually lose the team.

2578
01:55:29,320 --> 01:55:29,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2579
01:55:29,600 --> 01:55:31,160
Speaker 7: No, I think they're definitely feeling a little bit of

2580
01:55:31,200 --> 01:55:34,160
Speaker 7: the heat because the Bears, you know, Indiana's kind of

2581
01:55:34,160 --> 01:55:36,120
Speaker 7: come through now a lot of people. It's kind of

2582
01:55:36,120 --> 01:55:39,520
Speaker 7: funny when the discussion started because Indiana's got this budget

2583
01:55:39,520 --> 01:55:42,200
Speaker 7: surplus whereas Illinois is always, you know, in a deficit.

2584
01:55:42,640 --> 01:55:44,560
Speaker 7: So it kind of became a thing like, well, how

2585
01:55:44,920 --> 01:55:47,440
Speaker 7: you know, how's Illinois going to compete with this this

2586
01:55:47,520 --> 01:55:49,640
Speaker 7: free money Indiana's thrown at him, But the Indiana's not

2587
01:55:49,720 --> 01:55:52,240
Speaker 7: thrown free money at them. They explained. I thought they

2588
01:55:52,280 --> 01:55:55,640
Speaker 7: did a nice job explaining where the money would come from,

2589
01:55:55,680 --> 01:55:58,640
Speaker 7: and that's comes from taxes. Comes from an increased food

2590
01:55:58,640 --> 01:56:01,120
Speaker 7: and beverage tax, and Lake and County it comes from

2591
01:56:01,400 --> 01:56:05,080
Speaker 7: an increased innkeepers tax, the hotel tax in Lake County.

2592
01:56:05,440 --> 01:56:07,040
Speaker 7: It comes from money they're going to borrow from the

2593
01:56:07,080 --> 01:56:09,600
Speaker 7: toll road. I think that is where the surplus is.

2594
01:56:10,080 --> 01:56:12,560
Speaker 7: So like, there's the money's coming from the public, Like

2595
01:56:12,640 --> 01:56:15,440
Speaker 7: it's not like Indiana's just like we said last time,

2596
01:56:15,480 --> 01:56:18,720
Speaker 7: and they didn't find gold to balloons in the Indiana dudes, beach.

2597
01:56:19,280 --> 01:56:21,520
Speaker 7: You know, this money has to come from somewhere. So

2598
01:56:22,360 --> 01:56:24,080
Speaker 7: I think it's competitive for sure.

2599
01:56:24,120 --> 01:56:24,360
Speaker 1: Now.

2600
01:56:24,840 --> 01:56:27,720
Speaker 7: The thing I wrote about, and you know what I

2601
01:56:27,760 --> 01:56:30,480
Speaker 7: think is the difference is they these plays now with

2602
01:56:30,560 --> 01:56:32,960
Speaker 7: stadiums aren't just about the stadium. It's about the mixed

2603
01:56:33,080 --> 01:56:35,880
Speaker 7: use district outside the stadium. It's about how much they

2604
01:56:35,920 --> 01:56:38,480
Speaker 7: can make if they can make a kind of new

2605
01:56:38,520 --> 01:56:42,160
Speaker 7: neighborhood in a new shopping district around the area, and

2606
01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:45,000
Speaker 7: you know, reap the money from from taxes. The state

2607
01:56:45,000 --> 01:56:47,480
Speaker 7: can reap the money from taxes, the Bears can reap

2608
01:56:47,520 --> 01:56:50,160
Speaker 7: the money being like landlords and business partners and things

2609
01:56:50,200 --> 01:56:53,560
Speaker 7: like that. And I just I think Arlington Heights, just

2610
01:56:53,600 --> 01:56:57,920
Speaker 7: by population and by demographics, is just a much more

2611
01:56:58,000 --> 01:57:01,320
Speaker 7: attractive play for that. I don't even know if there's frankly,

2612
01:57:01,320 --> 01:57:03,920
Speaker 7: if there's space in the in the the land the

2613
01:57:03,920 --> 01:57:06,960
Speaker 7: Bears you know, are kind of looking at in Hammon

2614
01:57:07,480 --> 01:57:10,240
Speaker 7: to even make that kind of development. And furthermore, they

2615
01:57:10,280 --> 01:57:13,240
Speaker 7: start to do an environmental study that's not you know,

2616
01:57:13,560 --> 01:57:16,680
Speaker 7: it's near oil Rory. It's you know, I kind of

2617
01:57:16,680 --> 01:57:18,960
Speaker 7: made a joke about the smelting plants and oil refineries

2618
01:57:18,960 --> 01:57:21,320
Speaker 7: in northwest Indiana, but that's there's a lot of truth

2619
01:57:21,400 --> 01:57:21,600
Speaker 7: to that.

2620
01:57:21,960 --> 01:57:24,200
Speaker 5: And don't forget about the beautiful Lost Marsh golf course

2621
01:57:24,280 --> 01:57:27,520
Speaker 5: up there as well. John Greenberg with a series shadowed

2622
01:57:27,520 --> 01:57:30,760
Speaker 5: with us before about the Bears potentially putting on a

2623
01:57:30,800 --> 01:57:33,400
Speaker 5: Hammond Ditka sweater at some point here. I want to

2624
01:57:33,400 --> 01:57:35,760
Speaker 5: go back to what you said earlier. You said, when

2625
01:57:35,760 --> 01:57:38,120
Speaker 5: it's all sudden done, you still feel like Arlington Heights

2626
01:57:38,560 --> 01:57:41,240
Speaker 5: will win out. And that is because why.

2627
01:57:42,240 --> 01:57:45,560
Speaker 7: Well, one day owned the land already to the no

2628
01:57:45,600 --> 01:57:47,839
Speaker 7: one in I don't think anyone in the Bears organization

2629
01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:50,120
Speaker 7: actually wants to move to northwest Indiana. They're based in

2630
01:57:50,200 --> 01:57:52,800
Speaker 7: Lake Forest, you know, they all live in the north

2631
01:57:52,840 --> 01:57:57,960
Speaker 7: suburbs somewhere. That's just a schlep, to use the proper term.

2632
01:57:58,200 --> 01:58:00,480
Speaker 7: I don't think and I and frankly kind of how

2633
01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:02,640
Speaker 7: I close my column, Like, yes, it's about business. It's

2634
01:58:02,640 --> 01:58:05,680
Speaker 7: about the mixed use development and the fact that Arlington

2635
01:58:05,680 --> 01:58:07,480
Speaker 7: Park is three hundred and twenty six acres where they

2636
01:58:07,480 --> 01:58:10,440
Speaker 7: could build this like that development around. You know, it's

2637
01:58:10,480 --> 01:58:13,720
Speaker 7: a lot of population in suburban Cook County. Plus you're

2638
01:58:13,760 --> 01:58:18,320
Speaker 7: close to Lake County, Illinois, which is a pretty affluent county.

2639
01:58:18,400 --> 01:58:20,320
Speaker 7: There's a lot of money there, you know, if you're

2640
01:58:20,320 --> 01:58:23,840
Speaker 7: trying to get business there. Furthermore, does George McCaskey want

2641
01:58:23,840 --> 01:58:26,240
Speaker 7: to be does he want his legacy to be to

2642
01:58:26,280 --> 01:58:29,240
Speaker 7: move the Bears out of Illinois. I mean, I'm not

2643
01:58:29,280 --> 01:58:32,240
Speaker 7: saying that's the deciding factor here, but I'm going to

2644
01:58:32,280 --> 01:58:34,880
Speaker 7: say no. So I think the state does get it

2645
01:58:34,920 --> 01:58:36,360
Speaker 7: done through gritted teeth.

2646
01:58:36,600 --> 01:58:36,800
Speaker 6: You know.

2647
01:58:37,080 --> 01:58:40,240
Speaker 7: And Governor Pritzker said like that, Yes, will help with infrastructure,

2648
01:58:40,760 --> 01:58:43,000
Speaker 7: it's just getting the final numbers and getting that tax

2649
01:58:43,080 --> 01:58:46,240
Speaker 7: certainty number of what the bears want. I think Illinois

2650
01:58:46,280 --> 01:58:47,520
Speaker 7: is gonna have to grit their teeth and just get

2651
01:58:47,520 --> 01:58:48,080
Speaker 7: it done soon.

2652
01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:51,680
Speaker 1: John, Thanks for the little tutorial there on what's going

2653
01:58:51,720 --> 01:58:53,280
Speaker 1: on and what we can look for next. But I

2654
01:58:53,280 --> 01:58:57,160
Speaker 1: think you sound like like a lot of folks at

2655
01:58:57,160 --> 01:58:59,400
Speaker 1: the end, you expect it's going to be Arlington, Right,

2656
01:58:59,400 --> 01:59:00,480
Speaker 1: that's the bottom line.

2657
01:59:00,760 --> 01:59:03,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, exactly, that's the bottom I mean, that's that's

2658
01:59:03,080 --> 01:59:06,000
Speaker 7: really there's just so many reasons why not been Indiana?

2659
01:59:06,120 --> 01:59:08,680
Speaker 7: Did you know Indian wasn't bluffing. They did a good job,

2660
01:59:08,760 --> 01:59:10,520
Speaker 7: I think, and have done a good job of trying

2661
01:59:10,560 --> 01:59:13,440
Speaker 7: to attract them. I thought it was funny too. They

2662
01:59:13,440 --> 01:59:16,360
Speaker 7: also got to like mayors and people of like the

2663
01:59:16,400 --> 01:59:19,760
Speaker 7: surrounding kind of like mayor of Hammond, the mayor of Alparaiso.

2664
01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:21,920
Speaker 7: The mayor of Alpariso said they have like one of

2665
01:59:21,920 --> 01:59:25,320
Speaker 7: the most exciting downtown's in ultim Midwest. So I think

2666
01:59:25,560 --> 01:59:27,680
Speaker 7: when I drive to Indy for the combine. I might

2667
01:59:27,680 --> 01:59:30,560
Speaker 7: stop in downtown vl Paraiso, Robbie.

2668
01:59:31,240 --> 01:59:35,800
Speaker 3: John, I have been to downtown Valparaiso. It is a downtown.

2669
01:59:36,400 --> 01:59:36,920

2690
02:00:14,320 --> 02:00:16,720
Speaker 1: fun to talk about, but it's really truly at the

2691
02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:18,760
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's tough to imagine James that

2692
02:00:18,800 --> 02:00:20,959
Speaker 1: they're going to move to Hammond, Indiana.

2693
02:00:21,080 --> 02:00:21,280

Speaker 4: Dyton and others who might be interested in what's really

2697
02:00:30,440 --> 02:00:34,560
Speaker 4: going on and giving us just the real of what's

2698
02:00:34,560 --> 02:00:37,480
Speaker 4: happening rather than the headlines. Because you see the headline

2699
02:00:37,480 --> 02:00:39,960
Speaker 4: and then you know, he broke it down very simply

2700
02:00:40,000 --> 02:00:42,040
Speaker 4: to all of us. I thought, and kind of put

2701
02:00:42,040 --> 02:00:42,840
Speaker 4: it in English for us.

2702
02:00:42,880 --> 02:00:43,760

2762
02:03:07,840 --> 02:03:10,680
Speaker 1: suitcase and says they're running away to Hammond. Then they

2763
02:03:10,720 --> 02:03:13,080
Speaker 1: walked slowly away from home, stopping to look back over

2764
02:03:13,120 --> 02:03:15,760
Speaker 1: their shoulder every ten feet to see if someone is

2765
02:03:15,800 --> 02:03:16,600

02:03:59,760 --> 02:03:59,880
Speaker 5: is for?

2789
02:04:00,080 --> 02:04:01,200
Speaker 3: And I got out there.

2790
02:04:01,320 --> 02:04:03,960
Speaker 1: I found a place that had heat and a door lock.

2791
02:04:04,080 --> 02:04:04,800
Speaker 1: That's what I did.

2792
02:04:04,960 --> 02:04:06,000
Speaker 3: Well, your boy.

2793
02:04:05,840 --> 02:04:09,720
Speaker 4: Did not run away because I was pretty logical after

2794
02:04:09,760 --> 02:04:12,200
Speaker 4: the anger subsided, Like what am I?

2795
02:04:12,200 --> 02:04:13,040
Speaker 3: Where am I going to go?

2796
02:04:13,360 --> 02:04:14,880
Speaker 4: I mean I didn't even learn how to cook, really,

2797
02:04:14,880 --> 02:04:16,800
Speaker 4: and so I moved out of my parents' house when

2798
02:04:16,840 --> 02:04:17,720
Speaker 4: I was like twenty five.

2799
02:04:17,840 --> 02:04:20,040
Speaker 1: So I'll tell you this though as a parent. Now, Kevin,

2800
02:04:20,120 --> 02:04:22,880
Speaker 1: you can appreciate this, and you too, Mark, I look

2801
02:04:22,920 --> 02:04:25,520
Speaker 1: back at that now and for those two hours, I

2802
02:04:25,520 --> 02:04:29,160
Speaker 1: can't imagine how terrified my mom was. Oh, I can't

2803
02:04:29,200 --> 02:04:29,839
Speaker 1: even imagine.

2804
02:04:29,880 --> 02:04:31,760
Speaker 3: I'm so she said, where have you been? Like the

2805
02:04:31,800 --> 02:04:32,760
Speaker 3: men's room?

2806
02:04:33,160 --> 02:04:35,400
Speaker 5: I thought I was sweating enough of this curling match.

2807
02:04:35,400 --> 02:04:37,520
Speaker 5: I can only imagine what I would be at that.

2808
02:04:37,560 --> 02:04:39,280
Speaker 5: We need Tabitha to come up big here.

2809
02:04:39,640 --> 02:04:42,040

02:04:42,240 --> 02:04:45,840
Speaker 5: We're in the eighth and we're down four three.

2811
02:04:46,120 --> 02:04:48,720
Speaker 4: One final question about running away, and really it's the

2812
02:04:48,760 --> 02:04:51,160
Speaker 4: inverse of that, have you lost your kids? Because my

2813
02:04:51,240 --> 02:04:54,440
Speaker 4: parents told me they lost us at various not like

2814
02:04:54,520 --> 02:04:57,280
Speaker 4: a lot, but it was like for about thirty minutes

2815
02:04:57,320 --> 02:04:59,160
Speaker 4: in them all, I got terrified and you were.

2816
02:04:59,160 --> 02:05:01,280
Speaker 3: Running around of like a water fountain.

02:05:13,960 --> 02:05:14,200
Speaker 5: have known.

2822
02:05:14,480 --> 02:05:17,080
Speaker 4: We're still guilty for my parents about that. When I

2823
02:05:17,120 --> 02:05:19,040
Speaker 4: walk to the door, I'm like, see I'm here. Okay,

02:05:22,040 --> 02:05:23,160
Speaker 4: screw it up too much.

2826
02:05:24,080 --> 02:05:26,240
Speaker 1: One time We were getting ready to go somewhere for

2827
02:05:26,320 --> 02:05:28,960
Speaker 1: like the weekend, and the boys were like four and five.

2828
02:05:29,280 --> 02:05:30,280
Speaker 2: They're only a year apart.

2829
02:05:30,960 --> 02:05:33,680
Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, we're packing and we're putting

2830
02:05:33,680 --> 02:05:35,680
Speaker 1: everything together and we noticed we haven't seen the boys

2831
02:05:35,720 --> 02:05:37,440
Speaker 1: in like five minutes, Like where are they? So I'm

2832
02:05:37,680 --> 02:05:39,560
Speaker 1: calling them like, hey, we're getting ready to go. Nobody

2833
02:05:39,560 --> 02:05:42,040
Speaker 1: shows up and we start freaking out.

2834
02:05:42,400 --> 02:05:43,400
Speaker 2: Can't find them at all.

2835
02:05:43,560 --> 02:05:45,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're looking up, We're looking. We look at all

2836
02:05:45,520 --> 02:05:46,960
Speaker 1: the rooms in the house, they're not there. We're look

2837
02:05:47,000 --> 02:05:49,120
Speaker 1: in the backyard, they're not there. Look at the front yard,

2838
02:05:49,120 --> 02:05:51,280
Speaker 1: they're not there. Now we're kind of freaking out, and

2839
02:05:51,320 --> 02:05:55,040
Speaker 1: we got the neighbors are out now canvassing the neighborhood

2840
02:05:55,040 --> 02:05:56,880
Speaker 1: just to make sure you see have you seen them whatever?

2841
02:05:57,440 --> 02:06:00,320
Speaker 1: They had already put themselves in the back seat of

2842
02:06:00,360 --> 02:06:03,360
Speaker 1: the suv in the garage, and we're just waiting for us.

2843
02:06:04,400 --> 02:06:06,120
Speaker 3: Dang, I'm not gonna lie, Jeff.

2844
02:06:06,200 --> 02:06:09,080
Speaker 1: That was terrifying, man. That's why I say do that correct.

2845
02:06:09,480 --> 02:06:10,320
Speaker 2: Shout out to the kids.

2846
02:06:10,400 --> 02:06:14,520
Speaker 5: They're more polarizing Indiana athlete than Benedict Matherin our YouTube chat,

2847
02:06:14,560 --> 02:06:20,040
Speaker 5: is chatted about Benedict matherin for yes three hours. For

2848
02:06:20,080 --> 02:06:23,600
Speaker 5: those that didn't follow, he had thirty eight points last night,

2849
02:06:23,800 --> 02:06:27,640
Speaker 5: tied his career high with the Clippers. It is amazing

2850
02:06:27,720 --> 02:06:32,120
Speaker 5: the mathering discourse, you know what it is to me?

2851
02:06:32,320 --> 02:06:34,800
Speaker 4: And I think people have a hard time recognizing that

2852
02:06:34,840 --> 02:06:38,880
Speaker 4: he's a very talented player, but he probably just didn't

2853
02:06:38,920 --> 02:06:42,000
Speaker 4: fit here in Indiana and that is okay, Like I

2854
02:06:42,040 --> 02:06:44,080
Speaker 4: don't know if he would even reach his ceiling as

2855
02:06:44,080 --> 02:06:47,160
Speaker 4: a player with this rendition of the team. But for

2856
02:06:47,240 --> 02:06:49,240
Speaker 4: those I've seen some of the comments like oh, man,

2857
02:06:49,320 --> 02:06:50,680
Speaker 4: like we're called and use them right?

2858
02:06:50,720 --> 02:06:51,280
Speaker 3: What do you mean?

2859
02:06:51,880 --> 02:06:52,840
Speaker 2: They got to the game seven in.

2860
02:06:52,840 --> 02:06:54,240
Speaker 4: The finals and then only reason they probably lost it

2861
02:06:54,320 --> 02:06:57,040
Speaker 4: is because their best player towards Achilles. So I don't

2862
02:06:57,040 --> 02:06:58,920
Speaker 4: want to hear that, like they could have used or

2863
02:06:59,000 --> 02:07:00,440
Speaker 4: changed some things for Matheren.

2864
02:07:00,520 --> 02:07:02,600
Speaker 3: But that's a conversation for perhaps next week.

2865
02:07:02,760 --> 02:07:04,960
Speaker 1: All Right, we're not going to finish the curling before

2866
02:07:04,960 --> 02:07:05,760
