1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Whoo, good morning, and welcome into a chilly edition of 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: the Fan Morning Show. Was eight degrees when I was 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: driving in a little while ago. Good news though, Kevin Bowen, 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: James Boyd, Mark Dyked, and everybody is here and Mark, I. 5 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 2: Don't know if you saw this. 6 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: James Boyd got here at like twenty minutes in fun 7 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: of seven this morning. 8 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 2: Very impressive. I was digging that. 9 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 3: Man. 10 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 4: It reminds me of when I was in college. I 11 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 4: had a teacher that told me if I ever showed 12 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 4: up blake, that's what blaked his class every single time. 13 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 4: And he told me for the final, you show up 14 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 4: like you can't take it. And I showed up twenty 15 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 4: minutes earlier, and he was like, you, so you can't 16 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 4: be on time? And I said, yes, when I'm incentivized. 17 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 3: All right. 18 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: So it appears as if like the main arteries have 19 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: at least been plowed. I wouldn't say they're fantastic, but 20 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: they're certainly passable. To go a little bit slower this morning, 21 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: leave a little bit earlier. You know the drill. You've 22 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: been through it before. You don't need to hear it 23 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: from me. 24 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 2: But overall, thoughts. 25 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 1: Did it feel like Snowmageddon or what do you think 26 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: of the whole thing, Kevin, You've been through this a 27 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: few times too. 28 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think I saw stat where it 29 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 2: was the most snow we've had in eleven years. I 30 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: would say the commute probably backs that up. I'd say 31 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 2: a little lesson double the time for me. Side streets 32 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: are dicey. 33 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 3: You know. 34 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: I was coming down Meridian and actually the Indigo bus 35 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 2: was stuck on Meridian, so I had to go over 36 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 2: to Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania was was pretty fine. So, I mean, 37 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 2: if you're on Meridian, if you're on Pennsylvania, it's there's 38 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: snow and the turn lanes are definitely a little ugly. 39 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 2: But outside of that, I thought it was I thought 40 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: it was fine. You know, nothing too crazy. If you 41 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 2: don't need to be out today, don't. If you need 42 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: to go in, you can do it, but prepare for 43 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: a little bit more time. 44 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 4: Give yourself extra time. Like you boyd there you get 45 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 4: the in the car. I got to seve in the 46 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 4: passage right now. 47 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 2: Look at you, Mark Dyton. We put you up in 48 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 2: a hotel all weekend long. You had work to do. 49 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: No last night you did. Yeah, it was but yes, 50 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: I was, Uh. 51 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: You were here all day yesterday though, weren't you. 52 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was helping out with the pairing show with 53 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 5: Eddie Garrison, So he and I car pulled from the 54 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 5: hotel over here, and I had a bull bank blanket 55 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 5: in case we had a spoon in case we got 56 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,919 Speaker 5: locked in here. But that was not the case, thank god. 57 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 5: And yeah made the hotel. Roads were awful coming in yesterday. 58 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 5: They are much better today. But like Kevin and James 59 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 5: and you have reiterated, just give yourself some extra time 60 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 5: because while the roads are plowed, not necessarily that you 61 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 5: can see any street markings very well. 62 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, and careful author. 63 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: Like Marie you were talking about Marine and Kevin, it's 64 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: kind of it's a one lane yeah road at this 65 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: point in time, So keep that in mind. And now 66 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: you've got this horrific image in my head, Mark and 67 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: I can't help but ask who's the big spoon in 68 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: that scenario. 69 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: We're gonna play rock paper scissors, best two out of three. 70 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome in. 71 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 1: We have super Bowl participants for Super Bowl sixty and 72 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: Santa Clara. In a couple of weeks, the Seattle Seahawks 73 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: went a thriller against the Los Angeles Rams, and I 74 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: guess you could call it a snowfield thriller James New 75 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: England outlasting really Denver in the Mile High City yesterday. 76 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 3: Yeah. 77 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 4: I'm not a big fan of football weather. I think 78 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 4: I've made that clear. But a win is a win, 79 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 4: and the Patriots win with their least amount of points 80 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 4: ever had in a playoff victory. I believe that they had 81 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 4: forty playoff wins in their franchise history, and that was 82 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 4: again the lowest amount of points they've ever had in 83 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 4: a win, ten points, ten to seven victory. It all 84 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 4: counts the same. And now you got Drake May versus 85 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 4: Sam Darnold in the Super Bowl, and I believe I 86 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 4: know whoever wins this game, the narrative on either quarterback 87 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 4: is going to change drastically. 88 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: Don't We kind of have to change the narrative on 89 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold anyway. 90 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: I mean, he's done this for two years in a 91 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 2: row now with two different teams. 92 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: I think he's kind of found himself. 93 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 2: Kevin. 94 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: He feels like a guy who's matured, knows what he's 95 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: really capable of doing. He's got coaches that have confidence 96 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: in him. He's got terrific wide receivers last year at 97 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: justin Jefferson. This year he's got Smith and Jigba. It 98 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: feels like he's kind of a arrived, whether he wins 99 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: or not, kind of feels like he's arrived, doesn't it. 100 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: One last thing I'll add on the commute in I 101 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: feel like we have to mention this, Like we're obviously 102 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: commuting in at a time where there's not many cars, 103 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 2: so there's no rules, like I just drive in the 104 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: middle of the road like the Deeper did the Deeper 105 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: get in the day there's more cars out there, So 106 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: just FYI for everybody out there, it probably goes that same, 107 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: But thought I would toss that in here. Yeah, I 108 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 2: mean two great, great games. Obviously the Darnold story. You know, Minnesota, 109 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 2: I think is where the resurrection project is, like, hey, 110 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 2: you could be something. And then you know he walks 111 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: into Seattle and Jackson Smith and jackun is the best 112 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 2: receiver league and you know a guy that I don't 113 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 2: Fantasy football players probably realize him a lot, but I 114 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: don't know if I give him enough credit as one 115 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 2: of the better backs in the league. As Kenneth Walker, 116 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: he was good yesterday. I mean some of the plays 117 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 2: he made after contact, even like that touchdown run he had, 118 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 2: like that was not a given there to start the game. 119 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: And yet on a third and goal he gets the 120 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: he gets the edge there and score. So you know, 121 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: you don't get thrilling playoff games often where it's a 122 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 2: scoreless fourth quarter. But I would call yesterday's game thrilling. 123 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: I thought it was to thicking. The Rams have this 124 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: great fourth quarter drive and they get on the doorstep 125 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: and then boom, Seattle makes big time plays there on 126 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 2: third and fourth and goal. Hell even the end, you 127 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 2: know we did Pucinagua get out of bounds. Is there 128 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 2: going to be a little Hell Mary action for Matthew 129 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: Stafford and company. So yeah, two very different games, I thought, 130 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: two super entertaining games. And I probably speak for everyone 131 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: in this area code in this market Flyhawks fly or 132 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: whatever the hell their nickname is. 133 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 4: Ah No, the twelfth Man better reality, I guess, because 134 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 4: clearly the Patriots have not had enough Super Bowl success. 135 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 4: All right, it's crazy that they're back there again first year, 136 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 4: if Mike Rabell correct, So that's crazy to think about 137 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 4: your first year as a head coach with the franchise, 138 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 4: and you're going to the super Bowl, Drake May, your 139 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,559 Speaker 4: second year in the NFL, you're going to the super Bowl. 140 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 4: And again they're tied, I believe with the Steelers for 141 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 4: the must super Bowl victories ever with six a chance 142 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 4: to go for seven. But as a Patriots hater told 143 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 4: me in a cold tan yesterday, and they were like, hey, 144 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 4: while you're pointing out they can get an NFL record 145 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 4: seven super Bowl victories, they can also set the record 146 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 4: for Super Bowl losses. So respect to that. Man. 147 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: I like weather games myself. Maybe it's because I grew 148 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 1: up in Colorado. I find it just adds a different 149 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: element of mental toughness and things that don't obviously exist. 150 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: And you were taking you and I were talking about 151 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: this about fifteen minutes ago, James. Everybody talks about, oh, 152 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: is there's home field advantage for Colorado. Well, I got 153 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: news for you. And then in the northeast, New England 154 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: has played in conditions just like that many times. And 155 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: if you want to talk about home field advantags down south, 156 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: there's times you go down in September and early October 157 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: it could be ninety degrees and ninety percent humidity in 158 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: places there's a lot of teams from the North aren't 159 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: used to that. To me, it's just weather's part of 160 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: the deal. 161 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't like what's the way around it. I 162 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: don't is this like really a debate? 163 00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 3: Is this? Well? 164 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 4: I guess it's more so like what we were talking 165 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 4: about last week with the teams building domes, and we're 166 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 4: not going to get a lot of this, I don't know, 167 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 4: fifteen years from now. 168 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: No, definitely. Yeah, I think it'll go probably go away 169 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: over time. But I like the drama, the spectacle, the viewing. 170 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: Like I knew that once my team was down ten 171 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: to seven and they missed that field goal was kind 172 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: of blocked or at least a guy got a finger 173 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: on it at the very end for New England. Nice play, 174 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: but I kind of knew at that point in time 175 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: the way things gone to that was it. 176 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. 177 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's definitely fair to be critical 178 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: of Sean Payton and not, you know, trying to get 179 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: that ten nothing lead early, you know, when they went 180 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 2: for the fourth and won there because to me, with 181 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: your defense and a backup quarterback, you build a two 182 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 2: score lead. And I know it sounds crazy, but these 183 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: NFL coaches they do, and they better think of everything. 184 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 2: And if you're Sean Payton throughout the week and you're 185 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: awaiting three o'clock kickoff one o'clock local time, you have 186 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 2: some person in your football department that is alerting you 187 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: of what that forecast could and well, look. 188 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 4: Like, yes, you have a weather man. 189 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: You know, you see teams often handle coin tosses via 190 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 2: the wind. They do, like consciously think about that aspect 191 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: of the game. So you know, even if you didn't 192 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 2: think the snow was going to be to the level 193 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: that it was, certainly it was very windy. I mean 194 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: watch those field goal kickers trying to operate there. And 195 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: to me, with a backup quarterback, you go up two 196 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 2: scores and that type of defense, I mean, think about it. 197 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: The only Patriots drive that mattered in the game was 198 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 2: the one that Jared's did him, you know, gave Ale 199 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: two handed shove two try and get that ball out. 200 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: Well nightmares about that one for a while, but hey, 201 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: you know what, Drake may has had a tremendous season somehow, 202 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 1: some way with that defense. And I thought Romonde's Romande 203 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: Ramandre Stevenson, thank you, had a really nice day running 204 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: the ball yesterday was effective, not like dominant, but effective. 205 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 1: And sometimes you got to win games like that, ugly 206 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: games where it's just it's kind of a dog fight 207 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 1: and you just got to find a way to survive. 208 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: Un So, you got New England and the Seattle Seahawks 209 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl and the other thing I wanted 210 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: to touch on real quick before we get too far 211 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: into it for folks who are just driving the car 212 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: and might not listen to us later. 213 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 2: How about the Pacers on Friday night?

The final score there. Ramandre Stevenson had 338 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: seventy one yards and Drake May made enough plays. There 339 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: were times he looked like the Denver defense was in control, 340 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: but there were he made some plays with his legs, 341 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: particularly in one big pass. He made plays when he 342 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: needed to. 343 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, the bootleg at the end, of course is probably 344 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 2: the one that everybody will point to there. But yeah, 345 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: I mean it was just a wild game. I mean, 346 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: CBS said, I thought such a great job of you know, 347 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: looking at the split screens of what it was like 348 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: second quarter versus what it was like in the fourth quarter. 349 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 2: And again, if you're Denver fan, I think you continue 350 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 2: to go back to not taking that field goal earlier 351 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: in the second quarter. There, you know what could a 352 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: two score lead with the weather changing could have done 353 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 2: for you considering their defense was, you know, so great 354 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 2: all season long. It was great yesterday again. 355 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: Not only that you make that field goal, you're up 356 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: to nothing. I wonder if you're a little more conservative 357 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: in your own end with the football later in the 358 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: first half too. 359 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just that was just idiotic by Stidham. I 360 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: don't put that on play calling or anything like that. 361 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 2: That was just a horrible play by their quarterback. 362 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: In the NFC, the Seahawks advanced with a thirty one 363 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: to twenty seven victory over the Los Angeles Rams. Sam 364 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: Donald three hundred and forty six yards and three touchdowns, 365 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: was out dueling Matthew Stafford three hundred and seventy four 366 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns, but Stafford couldn't make a completion 367 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: on fourth and goal at the end of the game. 368 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 4: Yeah tough, I'm here, I'm near the end of the game. 369 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 370 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 4: I thought that he played pretty well, gave him a 371 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 4: chance to win, but that's Theattle team is no joke. 372 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 4: And I thought Sam Donald probably had the best game 373 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: of his life considering the state and how well he 374 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 4: played through touchdown passes, over thre hundred yards passing and 375 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 4: no turnovers, and on top of that, that defense is 376 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 4: for real, boy, But nobody was probably happier with that 377 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 4: Seahawks win and Tarik Woollan, who had the most idiotic 378 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 4: taunting penalty ever in that game. 379 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: I think Colts fans were thinking, as they watched Matt 380 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: Stafford and Sam Darnold duel yesterday, we. 381 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 4: Don't have a quarterback or a defense on that level. 382 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: Didn't didn't want to pony up for Stafford several years 383 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: ago was. 384 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 4: Available Hinsight's twenty twenty. 385 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: I guess, all right, Oh that's what we do here. 386 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: We do hindsight. 387 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 4: No, no, no, I mean I'm trying. It's like, you know, 388 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 4: depress too many Colts fans out there. But yeah, that 389 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 4: wasn't a good feeling watching that game. 390 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: My timeline was full of Colts fans with looking back 391 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: me brother. 392 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 2: All right. 393 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: Also, while we're talking about football, the Indiana Hoosiers had 394 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: their victory rally for the championship that they have earned. 395 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: That was this past Saturday. Is tens of thousands brave 396 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: the cold and windshield temperatures to get down Memorial Stadium, 397 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: and that thing kept going and going and going. They 398 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: had everybody speak Kevin. There was a minute there I 399 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: was worried, are we gonna get some folks with this icicle. 400 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 2: Thing and off their ears at the end. Yeah, I 401 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 2: felt awful frankly that that celebration wasn't bigger for that 402 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: football team, you know, and obviously mother Nature was the 403 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: one that played into that. That that team deserved more 404 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 2: than a you know, Kennesaw State fourth quarter crowd there. 405 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: It was probably twenty twenty five thousand. 406 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 2: I was, I think, right, and you know that that 407 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 2: should be a full stadium to honor, you know, one 408 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 2: of the best teams ever so unfortunately, mother nature didn't 409 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 2: help out. And to quote Matty bow And at one 410 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 2: point she goes, this is painfully awkward. Can we turn 411 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 2: the channel? I think that was when John Couger tried 412 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 2: to get not Elijah Rott, not Omar Cooper, not Jamari Ty. 413 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 2: I forget which player he was on, hoping and praying 414 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 2: that it hurt so good lyrics would resonate, and yeah, 415 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 2: I don't think it did. Also, Kurt SIGNI watch Mark No. 416 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: At the very end on Big ten Network, they were 417 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 1: interviewing Kurt Signetty after the rally. Poor guy was so 418 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: called he literally wouldn't move his mouth. 419 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 2: Nice haircut for sick. Yeah, he was high and tight, 420 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 2: he was. I was hoping he'd give us a drop 421 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 2: the mic moment he didn't really go. You know, these 422 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 2: championship parades, you know, celebrations, everyone say it. You know. 423 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 2: He was very quickly onto chapter three aka this upcoming 424 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 2: season here.

But the Indiana Pacers, even though they're 547 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: playing in Atlanta, they're having all kinds of weather issues 548 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: with ice, particularly, so they're moving that one up to 549 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: the middle of the day. So we will start our 550 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: broadcast this is what it's going to sound like. You 551 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: get Jake Query from noon to one today.

You 559 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: just do what you do your best when it's freezing outside. 560 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: And like we talked about last week, a lot of 561 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: those cities in the South Man they just they don't 562 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: have the infrastructure to deal with ice or any kind 563 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: of real sub zero temperatures. 564 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 4: So we have this comment from a YouTube listener Mystery 565 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 4: Science six one five. I teach at Kevin's Clay Middle School. 566 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 4: Asynchronous means I post assignments for students to complete on 567 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: their own time today. Okay, they don't have face to 568 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 4: face time with me unless they request it. 569 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 2: Boy, I have never the Trojans have. 570 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 4: I've never had enough faith in myself to do anything 571 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 4: on my own. You mean to tell me a teacher 572 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 4: could just give me an assignment and tell me, oh, 573 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 4: I expect you to get this done. Oh, it would 574 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 4: never get done, aren't they? Like today when the PS 575 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 4: five is sitting right in front of me. 576 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 2: No, I'd be like, oh I didn't see it. Sorry, 577 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: no chance to Aultler's Sledding Hill, Cool Creek Sledding Hill, Brookshire, 578 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 2: Whole fourteen Sledding Hell find your loco. Yeah, yeah, it 579 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 2: would be tough. It'd be tough to say. And that's 580 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 2: saying that is a ton of two teachers, no offense to. 581 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 2: I guess one of my former teachers here shout out 582 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 2: to the great Clay Junior High. So I've got two 583 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 2: kids in high school. 584 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: What do you think the chances are that either one 585 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: of them is up before nine am this morning? 586 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 8: Oh? 587 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 4: Since probably low right, because they probably don't go to 588 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 4: bed till three. 589 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: I'd say the youngest, the chances are zero. Yeah, the oldest. 590 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: He kind of wakes up around seven thirty eight o'clock. 591 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 4: Anyway, do you have the you gotta get up hour 592 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 4: for your high schoolers? Because my mom is like when 593 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 4: I was sill living at home, she would not let 594 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 4: you sleep past like maybe ten am, because She's like, 595 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 4: I'm paying bills around here and I'm just not gonna 596 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 4: watch you just sleep all day. Get up and put 597 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 4: some clothes on, take a shower, wash you butt, you 598 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 4: know that type of stuff. 599 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 2: Will the counter that'd be if you're paying bills. At 600 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 2: least I'm not using the water. Nay, they were just 601 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 2: stuck in bed. 602 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 4: Let me just say this, there wasn't really, you know, 603 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 4: much debate here. You know, it wasn't much questioning going on. 604 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 4: It was do what I say, you know, or else? 605 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 2: Boys. I don't know what you guys watching that Saturday afternoon, 606 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 2: But first off, that was a great college basketball game. 607 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: Inside of Mackie the shot making both teams unbelievable. It 608 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 2: was the camera, I don't you know. Carson Edwards had 609 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 2: a few of those, and honestly, I got some Jalen 610 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 2: Hoods Schaffino vibes in Mackie watching what Keaton Wagler did. 611 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 2: But James and not that you're die hard watching every 612 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 2: Illinois game. But I didn't know he had that in him. 613 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I know he's got a good freshman year, 614 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 2: wasn't a very highly ranked recruit at all, But that 615 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 2: dude hit some shots from Attica Renselear. That was when 616 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 2: he jab stepped Jakari Harris for the four point play. 617 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: I had an audible reaction on the couch. Think Matty 618 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 2: thought I was having a something or other going on there. 619 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 3: I was. 620 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 2: It got. 621 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: It was one of those days where you were shocked 622 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: when he missed. 623 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 4: After a while, yeah, he only missed four shots on 624 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 4: the whole afternoon. And it's funny you mentioned Carson Edwards Kevin, 625 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 4: because I remember covering a Carson Networks game my senior 626 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 4: year at Illinois, and he came there and dropped forty 627 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 4: and I believe it was at the time the biggest 628 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 4: role performance in the next amount of years at State 629 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 4: Farm Arena. And he hit so many threes and he 630 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 4: dunked on everybody. It was he was like just a 631 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 4: walking microwave. I felt like for those Purdue teams back then, 632 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 4: and it seemed Keaton yesterday or Saturday. I'm sorry, Keith Wogler. 633 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,679 Speaker 4: I just thought to myself, Oh, that's an NBA player, 634 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 4: and that's why this game is even close. Because they 635 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 4: ran so many different coverages at him, it just didn't matter, 636 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 4: and he held serve and actually one uped the best 637 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 4: player I believe, one of the best players in college 638 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 4: basketball on Braden Smith because he wasn't any slou cheether. 639 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 4: I know he went down with the ankle injury, but 640 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 4: he came back and he was cooking. So one of 641 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 4: the best games and probably in college basketball this year. 642 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 4: I will say for Todd Meyer out there. As much 643 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 4: as I want to talk trash, relax, brother, I don't 644 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 4: think that Keaton Walker's gonna s call forty six every 645 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 4: time you need him to. At Mackie, he was texting 646 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 4: me Kevin and telling me that it's dooming gloom, It's 647 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 4: all over for Purdue, and it's like, relax. I mean, 648 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 4: the guy had to have an al tim grave performance 649 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 4: that barely beat you all and it's January not March. 650 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I largely am there, but I will 651 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 2: say this and tomorrow night I think will be fascinating 652 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 2: against nine o'clock. Brace yourself for that Indiana hosting Purdue 653 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 2: perdue having to guard the stretch big man. Go to 654 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 2: the end of the Ucla game, Oscar Club's having to 655 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 2: flyout on that kid for UCLA bangs home with three. 656 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: You look at Saturday and Illinois is one of the 657 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 2: few teams in college basketball, to be fair, that has 658 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 2: a personnel to do it. But you know, you guys 659 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 2: put four or five shooters out of the floor. That's 660 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 2: true every boy time. All of them hit a shot 661 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 2: at the end of that game. And if there's one 662 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 2: thing Indiana can do, they can put shooters out there. 663 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 2: And Tucker Reeze maybe he's found a little bit of something. 664 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 2: So tomorrow night I am very, very fascinated by the 665 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: let's just call Oscar cluff and Sam alexis a wash. 666 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 2: They're too you know, back to the basket, guys, Trey Kaufman, Ren, 667 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 2: Tucker to Rees. You know, if you're gonna list a 668 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 2: starting lineup, you consider those guys the four men. They 669 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: play the game very differently. Trey Kaufman, Ren, of course, 670 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 2: is all around the basket and is a great, great score. 671 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 2: Tucker Torees wants to he can't guard a chair and 672 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: wants to pull you away from the basket. What's the 673 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 2: give and take there? And I think that's kind of 674 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 2: the general question for Purdue is you know, when you downsize, 675 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 2: you know you're downsizing to like a Jack Bentter. You know, 676 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 2: that's very different than last year it was kind of 677 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: Cam Heidi or it was Miles Colvin. You could get away, 678 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 2: I think a little bit with a six seven guy, 679 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 2: you know, trying to chase potentially a shooter around the 680 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 2: perimeter a little bit more so, I think that's kind 681 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: of the question I have obviously perdue Offensively. You know, 682 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 2: it's kind of crazy that they lose a game with 683 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 2: three turnovers because that's been you know, I can hear 684 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 2: Todd Meyer yelling right now. That's usually the issue when 685 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 2: you know Purdue has a lot, you know, not even three. 686 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 2: When they sniff you know, eight, nine, ten, then it 687 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: starts skill a little dicey there, you know, Offensively, that 688 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: was an issue for them, whatsoever? And just where's Bradin 689 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 2: Smith at ankle wise? I mean that adrenaline must have 690 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 2: been pumping because once he came back in the game. 691 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 2: His shot making was unbelievable. Well, who is the rest 692 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 2: of the way. 693 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 4: I believe it's Stan van Gundy or Jeff van Gundy 694 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 4: who always says that the basketball is healing powers. So 695 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 4: whenever anybody goes down, they're writhing in pain. Oh my god, 696 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 4: I'm so hurt. And then you know, a few minutes 697 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 4: go by, he touched the basketball. Oh boy, I got 698 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 4: a little more juice left. 699 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 2: No one epitomized that more than Lance Stevenson. 700 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 3: Oh. 701 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 4: He was the funniest player and probably still the funnest 702 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 4: player I've ever seen the NBA. 703 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 2: That ball was motor into a four year old. Yeah, 704 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: I mean that thing was just as soon as he 705 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: touched that thing. 706 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 3: Oh Man. 707 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: Didn't have a Lance Stevenson reference on my Bengo cart today, 708 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: But I like it. I'm here for it. One of 709 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: the things Matt Painter said I was was watching the 710 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: postgame press conference. He was a just talking about Wagler 711 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: and just amazing. But b he was not happy with his. 712 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 2: Team's bounding performance in that basketball. 713 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 4: No, No, Illinois got some huge offensive boards. They're late 714 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 4: in that game that turned into some big shots and 715 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 4: that also it tends to be or it seems to 716 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 4: be a little bit of an issue for the boiler Makers. 717 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 4: But again, we're talking about a team that's perennially one 718 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: of the best in the Big Ten and has been 719 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 4: as of late. It's just weird to know that the 720 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 4: race at the top of the Big Ten is so 721 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 4: tight because you look at who is in Nebraska still ndefeated, 722 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 4: and then you have Illinois, and then you have Purdue, 723 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 4: and you got Michigan and and so yeah, it seems 724 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 4: like in a year where we're looking at Purdue to 725 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 4: make a deep tournament run and get to the final four, 726 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 4: they probably won't even win the Big Ten, which is 727 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 4: crazy to say, but it's loaded right now. 728 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 2: A little update traffic wise, this from Marcus Bailey. Wish 729 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 2: to be downtown Ice seventy west to I sixty five 730 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 2: north in the north split is closed, several spins and 731 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 2: cars stuck in snow piles. And we're talking about one 732 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 2: of the more populous stretches of a highway in Indianapolis, 733 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 2: and it is closed. So if you don't have to 734 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 2: go out today, don't trust me. 735 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 4: Listen to us. Instead. 736 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 2: When we did our morning commutes, there were no cars 737 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 2: on the road. Whatsoever. And you could just drive in 738 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: the middle of the lane. I get that that's not 739 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: possible as the day moves along, so uh, race yourself 740 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 2: if you do have to head outside. 741 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 4: It gives me like movie vibes. I feel like I'm 742 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 4: like Will Smith and I am legend when I drive 743 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 4: down the middle of the street, like, hey, world's kind 744 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 4: of you know, not awake yet. Let's get this thing done. 745 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: Andy S, Texan on the fan text line of two 746 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: three ninety ten seventy thumbs up to the cops who 747 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: are out directing traffic to side streets. About that love 748 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: that you You had talk that we that's what he said. 749 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: That's what Andy S said, and you had talked about 750 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: that a little bit too. Just all the people that 751 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: are out doing stuff. Aaron, of course from Minnesota, says 752 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: he loves blowing snow. He's in his element. He can't wait. 753 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 4: Air from Minnesota is very fitting. 754 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: That's kind of how that works. The other thing I 755 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: want to talk about was the Pacers on Friday night, 756 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: because we've been waiting and waiting and waiting, and are 757 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: we starting to see over the last few games and 758 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: maybe since the calendar flipped over, are we seeing more 759 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: from Jeris Walker. Now, I had a great game on 760 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: Friday night? Is that more of who he's becoming now? Kevin? 761 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he's definitely been much better here over the 762 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. I don't think there's any denying that. 763 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 2: I thought, in particular Friday night, he drove it much 764 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 2: better than he usually does. You know, considering his body type. 765 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 2: I mean to me, that part of his game should 766 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 2: be there and needs to be there. So you want 767 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 2: to talk about a guy that's playing probably the best 768 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 2: basketball of his career at the right time. I mean, 769 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 2: we're now what ten days away from the trade deadline. 770 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: We'll see about Benic matherin this afternoon. The Pacers have 771 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 2: upgraded him to questionable. I believe the thumb injury is 772 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 2: sidelining him for the last eleven games. So yeah, I 773 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 2: think we're on Mathering watch Tony. He's going to join 774 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 2: us here at nine o'clock. I know there's been some 775 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 2: reports out there about Mathering to the Pelicans, and you know, 776 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 2: I think Tony's done a really good job of the 777 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: NBA world can be confusing, James. You know this full 778 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 2: well when it comes to trades, When it comes to 779 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 2: contracts when it comes to all that. It's not as 780 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 2: black and white as the NFL. No, And I think 781 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 2: there's a bit of a misconception on what Matherin would 782 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 2: net the Pacers, and so you know, hopefully Tony can 783 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 2: kind of clear some of that up. By the way, 784 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 2: Joel a Ericson is going to join us here in 785 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,439 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes, I can only imagine Joel's probably Joel's wife 786 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 2: probably has to love us with three young boys in 787 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 2: the house, and we're gonna pull Joel away from that 788 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 2: for fifteen minutes here on this snow day. 789 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: You sound like you might have some experience in that 790 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: in that realm. Yeah, and his raised Sorry, I've got 791 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: to do an interview with JMV right now, right and. 792 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 2: Look on Matti's face, deservedly so. 793 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: Cody Texan also speaking of the Pacers, I'm sure they 794 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: stick with starters of Halliburton, Drew, Aaron Pascal and the 795 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: new center moving forward, But can they quickly pivot to 796 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: a big or more versa a lineup with Walker Furfee 797 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: de Bonsa if they get him, or even Caleb Wilson 798 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: from North Carolina coming in as he's really starting to 799 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 1: look towards the future right now. 800 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: I'm not saying Caleb Wilson's name after how much I 801 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 2: butchered it the other day. 802 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,399 Speaker 4: Well you got it right that time.

Most importantly, though 847 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 1: I knew Al was coming shout out out how you 848 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: do it? So how you do it?

I know that Mark, 852 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: you and Eddie were both here yesterday. You had girls 853 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: pairing show on the Indiana Sports Network from my HSAA, 854 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 1: and some other things going on. What was it like 855 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 1: getting in and out yesterday was my question? 856 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 2: Awful? 857 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 5: The highways are down to one lane, the city streets 858 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 5: are untouched by plows for the most part, and then 859 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 5: just flooring the accelerator to get into the parking lot 860 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 5: was fun, even dug out an employee. 861 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 2: I did my good deed for the day. Dugout an 862 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 2: employee was trying to leave. Look at that you and 863 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 2: Tony Katz Uh huh yeah, somebody from WIBC. Let's play this, Mark, 864 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 2: will you cue this up? 865 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 3: You know? 866 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 2: For those that were watching Pacers Thunder, I was kind 867 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 2: of flipping back and forth Butler Marquette Friday night, by 868 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 2: the way, shout out to Finley Bizjack, excellent for the 869 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 2: Bulldogs and that one Butler has got a huge game 870 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 2: Wednesday at Saint John's. Huge, huge for the resume. But 871 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 2: flipping back and forth in the Pacers get one of 872 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 2: the Marquee wins certainly of the season, but no Tyrese 873 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,479 Speaker 2: Halliburton in attendance for this one. And now, you know, James, 874 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think when Rick Carlisle joined us initially 875 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 2: this offseason, I want to say, he told us that 876 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 2: he didn't think Tyrese would travel a ton early in 877 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 2: the season, right, And Tyrese, bile accounts, has been to 878 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 2: every road game, I believe, until Friday night in Oklahoma City. 879 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: Obviously that is the site where he tore his achilles. 880 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 2: And this is what game four of the five game 881 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:42,919 Speaker 2: road trips. It's not like it's a one night road 882 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: trip where, you know whatever, tyres just stays back. I mean, 883 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 2: I assume he, you know, went back to Indy after 884 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 2: the Boston game. I guess that would have been last week. 885 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 3: Now. 886 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 2: Tyre's had made an appearance on the Amazon Prime show 887 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 2: here a few months back. They have players on there 888 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 2: as well. So Taylor Rook, who is the host of 889 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,400 Speaker 2: Amazon Primes NBA coverage, She shared this in regards to 890 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 2: Tyrese Haliburton not attending the Pacers game against the Thunder 891 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 2: on Friday. 892 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 9: Obviously a humongous win for Indiana, but their Superstar was 893 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 9: not in the building for this one. Now, this, of course, 894 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 9: was the site of Tyrese Haliburton's Game seven injury. He 895 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,760 Speaker 9: has been traveling with the team for every game despite 896 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 9: being ruled out for the season until tonight. There obviously 897 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 9: were a lot of questions about why Tyrese was not 898 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 9: at the game, so I asked him if he could 899 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 9: offer us an explanation, and he said that he does 900 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 9: not think he's ready to. 901 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:39,919 Speaker 2: Go back there yet. 902 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,800 Speaker 9: He said, it's something I still think about. 903 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 3: For sure. 904 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 9: He would like the next time he goes back to 905 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 9: be when he can play and get lost in competing 906 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 9: and playing the game that he loves, rather than staring 907 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 9: at that spot of the floor the whole game, which 908 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 9: I thought was of course an incredibly honest and open 909 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,959 Speaker 9: answer about why he just felt like mentally it wasn't 910 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 9: the moment toward. 911 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: I get it, totally get it, don't you, James. 912 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, probably some PTSD there. To be honest with you, 913 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 4: I don't mean to say that to be dramatic, but 914 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 4: I mean to be real. Devastating injury, the biggest game 915 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 4: of your life, and I can understand why he would 916 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 4: want to play on that court the next time he's 917 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 4: back on that court, versus being back there and inevitably 918 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 4: having to kind of relive some of those moments. 919 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:31,439 Speaker 2: And I think one thing too about Tyres I think 920 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,760 Speaker 2: for the most part we know this in our market, 921 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 2: but like he is so jovial when you watch him, 922 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 2: he is so frankly just looks so happy. Even when 923 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 2: he's on the bench right now, like he is the 924 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 2: first one up, he's high fiving guys. He's this is 925 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,280 Speaker 2: not a Kawhi Leonard look to Tyrese Halibert. 926 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 4: I mean, Kawhi has one of the most iconic laughs 927 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,720 Speaker 4: in NBA history. 928 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,399 Speaker 2: Mark if we could find that would be excellent here 929 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 2: on this Monday morning. But yeah, I guess just another 930 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,399 Speaker 2: reminder of like there's a lot going on in there. 931 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 2: And you know, I think back to Tyrese. I think 932 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 2: it was last year, early in the season when he 933 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 2: went to New York. Didn't he have a goose egg 934 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 2: in that game? Or maybe he had only like two 935 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 2: points in that game and he was he was scoreless. Yeah, 936 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 2: and then like a couple weeks later he talked about 937 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,400 Speaker 2: how much of a dark place he was in. And 938 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 2: this goes back to the Olympic run and not being 939 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 2: able to play there and battle in the hamstring injuries 940 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 2: and all of this, and I believe he saw like 941 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 2: the Pacers mental coach and just a lot going on 942 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 2: there that frankly, you know, when I look at him 943 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 2: or observe him, I don't necessarily, you know, think about 944 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 2: that stuff probably reminder for all of us just in 945 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 2: terms of our daily interactions with humans there. But you know, clearly, 946 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 2: and if you watch the Starting five documentary on Netflix, 947 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 2: I think you'll get, you know, pretty good glimpse into 948 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 2: you know, how much he is going through, even though 949 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 2: by all accounts, rehabs going well and you know, he's 950 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 2: able to do a lot of stuff right now and 951 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 2: this and that. But I get it. It makes sense. 952 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 2: But you know, I guess I just when the road 953 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 2: trip popped up, I didn't think to myself, huh, I 954 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 2: wonder if Tyras will travel. I mean, he's been every 955 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 2: road game this year. He's gone on those you know, 956 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,399 Speaker 2: one night road trips. When if I were him, I'd 957 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: probably say, hey, you know, I might as well stay 958 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 2: back here and just relax, and i'd have to, you know, 959 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 2: go to all these road games. But he's done all that, 960 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 2: but you know, definitely Friday night a little bit too 961 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,959 Speaker 2: much for him. My guess is he doesn't want. 962 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 1: To go back and play on that floor, or even 963 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 1: be on the floor, sit on the floor until he 964 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: is ready to go play basketball and win a basketball game. 965 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 2: James mentally, I'm sure that's where he's at. 966 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, for sure I can agree with that. 967 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 2: All right. 968 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: So again, if you're an Indiana Pacers fan, as most 969 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: of people listening to our program are every day, they 970 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: have moved their game up in Atlanta from this evening 971 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: until one thirty this afternoon, I believe, so one o'clock 972 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,359 Speaker 1: airtime here on ninety three five and when I seven 973 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 1: to five to the fan, you'll have Jake Query from 974 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: noon to one, and then after the Eddie White postgame Show, 975 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: the world's greatest post game show, you'll get JMV from 976 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: about four forty five ish to seven, and they'll only 977 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: have Inside IU Athletics after that. So that's what the 978 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: day looks like, and one of the things we'll be 979 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 1: talking about, I'm sure with Joel a ericson coming up 980 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: in a moment, his teams continue to hire head coaches. 981 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:23,879 Speaker 1: We got, we got the Pittsburgh Steelers finally found their guy, 982 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 1: and he feels like a Pittsburgh guy. 983 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:27,399 Speaker 2: He is a Pittsburgh guy. 984 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:31,320 Speaker 4: But yeah, it was a boring higher in my opinion, 985 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 4: but very on brand for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I'm not 986 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 4: one of those people who are saying, though. 987 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 2: Cathy, for those I'm living under a rock. 988 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 1: Sorry. 989 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not saying that Mike McCarthy is someone who 990 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 4: can't win in Pittsburgh. But I feel like that's kind 991 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 4: of like a high floor, low ceiling. 992 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 2: Higher marks is me and your guys back. I don't know, 993 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 2: that's an interesting situation that they got there. I mean, 994 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 2: he counts they got along, Aaron Rodgers and Mike mccaey 995 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 2: got all. The Steelers said that they're open to having 996 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 2: him come back. Oh lord, we'll see. 997 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 4: I get other options, though, get bad so you can 998 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 4: get good. Yeah, look at the Patriots, they don't do that. 999 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 5: That's I mean, the Michael McCarthy record that Amy Tomlin has, 1000 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 5: that's not going to carry over. So I feel like 1001 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 5: Clinton Slate, you might as well start anew with a 1002 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 5: new quarterback, because what do you even if you get 1003 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers from one more year it's probably one more 1004 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 5: year and that's it. You're gonna bean the quarterback anyway, 1005 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. 1006 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 4: And to a degree, I kind of view the Steelers 1007 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 4: how the Pacers were before trading Demontra Semonis away and 1008 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 4: trading for Tyreus Halliburn and then absolutely stinking for a 1009 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:45,720 Speaker 4: year to kind of reset themselves. Because the worst place 1010 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 4: to be in sports is the middle. Yes, and that's 1011 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 4: where they are every year. I can see it now, 1012 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 4: Micha McCarthy first year on the job, ten and seven, 1013 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers runs it back and they get blown out 1014 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 4: in the wildcard round, because that's what they do every all. 1015 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 1: Right, we'll talk to Joli ericson about head coaching changes 1016 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 1: and of course the future of the Indianapolis Colts as 1017 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: we continue in a moment. It's a cold one today. 1018 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: Go a little bit slower, take a little bit more time. 1019 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 1: Main roads are generally plowed. Side streets not so much. 1020 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,919 Speaker 1: Usually two lane streets like Meridian. Really, at least early 1021 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: this morning, we're one lane on either side, so keep 1022 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 1: that in mind as well. 1023 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 2: And again I sixty five seventy North Split. Marcus Bailey 1024 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 2: from WISH TV sharing that that is currently closed. Seen 1025 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 2: some videos and pictures there. It looks ugly sideways, cars stuck, 1026 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,200 Speaker 2: So I get that.

The Super Bowl participants are set. Most people 1035 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 1: watched it yesterday. Sam Darnald, the Seattle Seahawks going to 1036 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:08,760 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl to take on the New England Patriots, 1037 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: and young Drake may And we talked about Sam Darnald 1038 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 1: a lot about an hour ago, but I'll bring it 1039 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 1: up again. Three different franchises gave up on him, and 1040 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 1: now he's playing in the Super Bowl for Seattle, ahead 1041 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 1: of Lamar Jackson, ahead of Josh Allen, ahead of Baker Mayfield. 1042 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: And for all the people that talk about scripted, this 1043 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: scripted that you can't make that stuff up, James just 1044 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: can't make it up. He just every time over the 1045 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,359 Speaker 1: last couple of years he's had an opportunity. He went 1046 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,919 Speaker 1: to Minnesota, took advantage of it. They didn't want him, 1047 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,759 Speaker 1: went over to Seattle and quite frankly is working on 1048 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 1: a not a big, huge quarterback contract. 1049 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:47,240 Speaker 2: But he's doing it again. 1050 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: And I don't know. You tell me. 1051 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 3: I know. 1052 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,879 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy was not great this past year, but justin 1053 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: Jefferson had an All World year a year ago with 1054 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 1: Sam Darnald and now he goes over to Seattle and 1055 00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 1: Jackson Smith and. 1056 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,160 Speaker 2: Jigbut is having an all World year. 1057 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: Quarterback has to have something to do with it, doesn't 1058 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 1: he Absolutely. 1059 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 4: JJ McCarthy is not good at football, Seam Donald. 1060 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 8: It is. 1061 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: Joey Erickson is good and he covers the colts over 1062 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,320 Speaker 1: at the Indie Star.

Back in my day, I used to walk 1070 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 4: to school in this weather. You know, tim miles both ways. 1071 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 4: But no, I do have actually a question about this. 1072 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 4: This is why I wanted to have you on the 1073 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 4: air today. We're going through like our list of colts reporters, 1074 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 4: so Joel as it was contin Native, so as it 1075 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 4: was Conton Native who is very familiar with snow. What 1076 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:52,320 Speaker 4: are your essentials in times like this? And are we overreacting? 1077 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 4: Do you ever think to yourself? Boy, these Indiana people 1078 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 4: have no idea. 1079 00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 3: So so my dad reminds me with the cold thing 1080 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,279 Speaker 3: every time it gets cold down here, like it's been 1081 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 3: cold the last couple of days. But I've gotten a 1082 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 3: text message from him with like negative twenty four as 1083 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,720 Speaker 3: the actual tempt because that's where where in my hometown. 1084 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 3: That's what it was like the last two days. So 1085 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 3: he reminds me of the cold more than anything. The 1086 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:22,759 Speaker 3: snow thing I learned there was a huge snowstorm in 1087 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 3: Missouri when I started going to school there. They got 1088 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: like fifteen inches in one night or one snowfall, And 1089 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 3: that was what I learned that the rest of the 1090 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 3: country doesn't do or understand snow the way that Wisconsin does. 1091 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 3: And so from then on. I've always been like, you 1092 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,479 Speaker 3: know what, I got to give everybody else a past. 1093 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:41,839 Speaker 3: This doesn't happen to them all the time. 1094 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,799 Speaker 1: Fair enough, fair enough, all right, you're ready to talk 1095 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 1: some football, my man. 1096 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go. 1097 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: H What should Colts fans be thinking as they watch 1098 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl in a couple of weeks. 1099 00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 3: That's a great question. Well, if you want to Daniel 1100 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 3: Jones has an Achilles tear. But if you want to 1101 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,760 Speaker 3: feel some optimism about Daniel Jones coming back and leading 1102 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 3: the Colts, you should get it from Sam Donald. The 1103 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 3: the book got Donald after last year's playoff loss in Minnesota. 1104 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 3: Was it be Minnesota moved on from him? And Minnesota 1105 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:26,920 Speaker 3: probably regret that if I had to guess h after 1106 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 3: after the way this season went. So I think that's 1107 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,439 Speaker 3: one of the things is that he's, you know, he's 1108 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 3: the latest in the line of guys who failed one 1109 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 3: place and then went somewhere else and looked much much better. 1110 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 3: And the flip side, though, is that Sam Donald wasn't 1111 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 3: coming off of torn achilles. So I think, you know, 1112 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 3: most Colts fans probably aren't in a optimistic mood. But 1113 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 3: if you wanted to, that's that's one of the things 1114 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:49,320 Speaker 3: that sticks out. 1115 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 2: To me, Joel, good morning, thank you for the time, 1116 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,840 Speaker 2: as I know your house probably like many others, a 1117 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 2: bit chaotic. Here on the snow Day Monday, Diana Russini 1118 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 2: reporting that Philip Rivers has withdrawn from the Buffalo Bills 1119 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,720 Speaker 2: head coaching sweepstakes. Do you think we'll get a Saint 1120 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 2: Michael's Locker Room Wolf of Wall Street video from Philip 1121 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,320 Speaker 2: Rivers and his high school kids over today? 1122 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 3: I hope so. 1123 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 2: How great would that be? 1124 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:22,359 Speaker 3: That would be? That'd be amazing. Also, also, does that 1125 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 3: mean that we get a can we get next year 1126 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 3: a state title and then in five or six years 1127 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:38,240 Speaker 3: the Philip Rivers movie where he goes to play after 1128 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 3: they lose the state semifinal, he goes to play back 1129 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,239 Speaker 3: in the NFL and sorts the NFL before coming back 1130 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 3: and winning the title. 1131 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 2: I like this. 1132 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 3: There's a very solid movie right there. 1133 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 2: Sure, And honestly, Terry Pigula wouldn't even need an actor. 1134 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 2: He could us act like himself in that movie. After 1135 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 2: what we've seen over the last few weeks, the great 1136 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:57,279 Speaker 2: Joel A. Erickson from the Inanapoli Star with the sere 1137 00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:59,959 Speaker 2: paylest Liquors Hotline. Okay, let's go back a few weeks. 1138 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:04,320 Speaker 2: Chris Ballard Younger and faster on defense. In my mind, Joel, 1139 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 2: I'm looking at the clouds and I'm saying, Okay, they 1140 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 2: need to go find a starting defensive end opposite lot to, 1141 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:15,359 Speaker 2: I think they need a new starting linebacker. Is that 1142 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 2: where I'm done defensively? Is there more? Is there different stuff? 1143 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 2: What do you think about that rough sketch starting the 1144 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 2: end starting linebacker for twenty twenty six? 1145 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's the start. And then I think 1146 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 3: that the other what I've been thinking is that both 1147 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 3: of those positions you just keep hammering away at them 1148 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 3: because in the secondary, you start talking through the spots. 1149 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 3: Even if Tarvarius War decides to retire, they've got some guys. 1150 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,879 Speaker 3: You probably still need to add a corner in that scenario. 1151 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 3: If Nick Cross leaves, you have to make a move 1152 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 3: with Joan Safety. But I don't know that those are 1153 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,360 Speaker 3: as dire In terms of the younger and faster, I 1154 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,799 Speaker 3: think the younger and faster than me was. I think 1155 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,600 Speaker 3: you take everybody at defensive end who's not j T two, 1156 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:04,839 Speaker 3: Mulola or Lasu and and try to upgrade all that 1157 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 3: and get a lot younger and faster, and then you 1158 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 3: know the linebacker. I think you got to add a 1159 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 3: couple of places there too, because well, they had a 1160 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:19,360 Speaker 3: bunch of really good special teams options behind Jermaine Pratt 1161 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 3: and Zayer Franklin. They were really thin on terms of 1162 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 3: NFL depth, guys who could make a start if somebody 1163 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:26,839 Speaker 3: went down. 1164 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 2: Is Nick Cross a cult in twenty twenty six. 1165 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 3: That's a really tough question, And it's because it's the 1166 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:38,399 Speaker 3: reason it's tough is because I think. 1167 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,720 Speaker 2: It's the free agents Joel to debate. 1168 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, the safety market is impossible to predict because I 1169 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 3: feel like for a while now, for a little while there, 1170 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 3: it was like, well, they're not going to pay any 1171 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 3: safeties any money, and that's not necessarily true anymore. You know, 1172 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,879 Speaker 3: cam Bin them obviously here on a big money deal. 1173 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 3: But the way the market seems to work now is 1174 00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,799 Speaker 3: three or four safeties get paid top dollar, and then 1175 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 3: there's a huge gap between what those three or four 1176 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 3: top guys get and the rest of the market, and 1177 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,280 Speaker 3: then those other guys end up getting less than they 1178 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 3: want to. We went through a couple of Julian Blackman 1179 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,360 Speaker 3: free agencies where he really just didn't wasn't able to 1180 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 3: cash in on good seasons. I think that determines the 1181 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,560 Speaker 3: whole thing with Nick Cross is what is the rest 1182 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 3: of the NFL seem as Do they see him as 1183 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 3: a big money up and coming strong safety or do 1184 00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:33,799 Speaker 3: they see him as a solid starter, because there could 1185 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:36,359 Speaker 3: be a difference of like ten million dollars per year 1186 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,680 Speaker 3: between those two evaluations. 1187 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:44,359 Speaker 4: So along those same lines for personnel, we know that 1188 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 4: Michael Pittman Junior has a huge cap hit next year. 1189 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:49,239 Speaker 4: I think it's twenty nine million. If they cut him, 1190 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 4: they'll save about twenty four million, I believe in cav 1191 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 4: space with about five million dollars in dead money. So 1192 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 4: in other words, do you think Pittman will be on 1193 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 4: the team next year, feel think anyal restructure or do 1194 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 4: you think he'll go elsewhere? 1195 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I I kind of always think that in 1196 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,279 Speaker 3: my head whenever a guy of Michael Pittman, with Michael 1197 00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:16,240 Speaker 3: Pittman's numbers gets in this situation, I kind of expect 1198 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 3: them to make the decision to force the team's hand 1199 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 3: and and you know, let them back on the open market. 1200 00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:26,879 Speaker 3: You know, if if they're gonna do it instead of restructuring. Now, 1201 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 3: I think players obviously can can have different you know, 1202 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 3: make this different decisions aside that they want different stuff. 1203 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 3: But usually wasn't Cooper Cup in this situation a couple 1204 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 3: of years ago, and and you know, ask for the 1205 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:45,680 Speaker 3: asked for the cut because you could Usually you get 1206 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 3: end up making more on the open market than when 1207 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 3: you're negotiating against just your team. So that's that's I mean, 1208 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 3: if I if I was Michael Pittman, that's what I 1209 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 3: would do. Because his his numbers, you know, well they 1210 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 3: haven't been by his owner, mixture haven't been up to 1211 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 3: his his standard the last couple of years. His overall 1212 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:04,280 Speaker 3: numbers still put him in line for a big payday 1213 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 3: on the open market. 1214 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 4: So then along those same lines, Joel, this is why 1215 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 4: I ask you that first question. If Pittman moves on, 1216 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 4: then how big of a priority is to get another 1217 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 4: receiver in the draft or elsewhere. 1218 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:19,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're you're good. I mean, yeah, he led the 1219 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,480 Speaker 3: team in receptions last year. But I do think though 1220 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 3: you don't have to necessarily, I don't think you necessarily 1221 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 3: have to emphasize it the same way you ever emphasize 1222 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 3: those defensive positions, because you give Tyler Ward another year 1223 00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 3: in the offense where he's he's not a rookie, he 1224 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:38,279 Speaker 3: knows the NFL. Now he's got a chance to maybe 1225 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 3: expand what he does. Maybe you expand Josh downs Uh, 1226 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 3: and then just expand Alec Pierce's role, and you're probably 1227 00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:50,360 Speaker 3: in good. You you you need another receiver in that scenario. 1228 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,279 Speaker 3: But I don't think it's it becomes the most pressing need. 1229 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:57,319 Speaker 3: I think most the most pressing need is still defensive 1230 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 3: end and and specifically pass structure. Kind of no matter 1231 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 3: almost no matter what happens, unless you know Daniel Jones 1232 00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:05,800 Speaker 3: decides to leave. 1233 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 1: Joe one other thing from me. I don't know if 1234 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: you realize this. Pictures and catches, you look outside today, 1235 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 1: just know that pictures and catchers report in fifteen days. 1236 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:17,000 Speaker 2: Oh. 1237 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 3: I definitely definitely realized. 1238 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 2: That that's our holiday. 1239 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:25,399 Speaker 4: In the ericson household games during press conferences, they still 1240 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 4: manages to ask a the question. 1241 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 3: I definitely realize that the hot stove has been very 1242 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 3: The weather has been cold, but the stove has been 1243 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,240 Speaker 3: hot in Major League Baseball for the last couple of weeks. 1244 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 5: I'm aware, did you like that the Brewers traded Freddy Peralta. 1245 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 2: I so here's the thing. 1246 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:50,480 Speaker 3: I love Freddy Perolta just in terms of like a 1247 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 3: top probably in my favorite three Brewers pictures in my lifetime. 1248 00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 3: But the flip side of that is this, this is 1249 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 3: just I've kind of given up and resigned myself to 1250 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:03,839 Speaker 3: this is just what they have to do, and it's 1251 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 3: probably gonna work out better than I think. It is 1252 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,000 Speaker 3: that I think every year they make one of these 1253 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 3: deals and I'm like, oh, I don't know how that 1254 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:13,839 Speaker 3: works out, and then one of the guys they end 1255 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 3: up get they get ends up being better than I thought. 1256 00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 3: So I'm kind of at the point where I just 1257 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 3: have to be like, you know what, that'll probably work out. 1258 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 3: I don't love it, but you know, they they're just 1259 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 3: not going to be able to pay a pitcher at 1260 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 3: the level he's gonna need next year, and I'm not 1261 00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 3: even sure if they should try, given their financial limitations 1262 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 3: and what pitches. What happened to the pitchers after thirty, Joel. 1263 00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 2: I enjoyed meeting your fellow coach Kevin on Saturday.

I 1327 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 2: also made a my own kid bingo for the Football 1328 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 2: Game's mark of viewer. 1329 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:48,240 Speaker 3: Done that? 1330 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 2: No? Do tell so online? They have these great you 1331 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 2: know bingo. I guess templates if you will for football games. 1332 01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 2: So you know, if you you know, if you see 1333 01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:01,960 Speaker 2: a touchdown, bo you know, mark that on your bingo board, 1334 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. So I edited a fuel of them. 1335 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 2: I wanted to get some commercials in the mix, so 1336 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 2: you know, a Chips commercial, a car commercial, a beer commercial. 1337 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:13,840 Speaker 2: And I mean, Rosie Bowen was as locked in as 1338 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,320 Speaker 2: I've ever seen her cheerleaders. You know, if you see 1339 01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 2: the cheerleaders, that's good stuff, like coin toss, kickoff, all 1340 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,439 Speaker 2: the mark It was great. So usually we I say 1341 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,680 Speaker 2: that for the Super Bowl, but I was desperate yesterday 1342 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:25,760 Speaker 2: I said, we got two games. 1343 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:28,240 Speaker 5: You looked over at maddiem like I'm putting together hours 1344 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 5: of entertainment here. 1345 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,760 Speaker 2: So that was big time. So I like to say 1346 01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 2: I did my I don't know if there's any other 1347 01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:35,720 Speaker 2: dad things I need to do for twenty twenty six, 1348 01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:36,280 Speaker 2: to be honest with. 1349 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:38,480 Speaker 5: You, See, I left right like as the AFC Championship 1350 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:40,640 Speaker 5: game was starting, so I was like, my family, I'll 1351 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 5: see you tomorrow. I had to go to the hotel. 1352 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 1: So I'm kind of surprised that you guys didn't organize 1353 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:47,920 Speaker 1: like a Royal rumble for the kids. 1354 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 2: That's this Saturday. 1355 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 4: So we'll see, we'll see Marquee event. 1356 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 2: You know, it is this the anniversary of it being here? Mark, 1357 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 2: We're getting close. Yeah, it might be. Yeah, was it today? 1358 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 2: Maybe it's morning when it was a Royal rumble? 1359 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:01,480 Speaker 3: Right now? 1360 01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 1: Ninety through five one oh seven five the Fame. We're 1361 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,240 Speaker 1: talking to Joel a Ericson about the Colts and what 1362 01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 1: they might do off season. And we've talked about this 1363 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 1: before too, but as you think about it further and 1364 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 1: you talk to people like Joel Kevin and then James, 1365 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 1: you way in two, what do you think where would 1366 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,080 Speaker 1: you put the chances on a scale of like one 1367 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 1: to one hundred, that Nick Cross is playing for the 1368 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 1: Colts next year? 1369 01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:22,880 Speaker 2: Is it? 1370 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 1: Is it fifty to fifty for you? Or is it 1371 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 1: more or less one one of the other. 1372 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,360 Speaker 2: I think it's the hardest debate, James, of any free agent. 1373 01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 2: I guess fifty to fifty would Yeah, I mean that 1374 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,320 Speaker 2: that's where I put it in. You know, Joel laid 1375 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 2: out a lot of the reasons. One, the safety market 1376 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 2: is very diminished in the NFL. But like James can 1377 01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:45,680 Speaker 2: probably do this, but if I asked Jeff, you or 1378 01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 2: Mark to name a Cults safety not named cam Binen 1379 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 2: er Nick Cross, could. 1380 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 1: You not right this second? 1381 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 3: Right? 1382 01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:55,200 Speaker 2: I mean like that that position is that barn It's 1383 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 2: safe James. I struggle to name the safeties on the 1384 01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,959 Speaker 2: Colts roster that are not and buying him or Nit Cross. 1385 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:04,360 Speaker 2: So if you were to let him walk, it's it's 1386 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 2: a knee. You're not giving that starting job to Hunter 1387 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,000 Speaker 2: Woller coming off of Liz frank injury? Are you no? 1388 01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 4: And I'm trying to think what riding Tom is, Daniel Scott, 1389 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:12,520 Speaker 4: these are not names. 1390 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 2: Trey Washington is he still around? 1391 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: I think Daniels gotta have a moment in the preseason last. 1392 01:03:16,920 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 4: Year he had a pick six, But yeah, and Trey 1393 01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:23,200 Speaker 4: Washington was unfortunately the safety who broke his teammates ankle 1394 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 4: in training camp with the hip drop tackle. 1395 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 2: So I just think it's all like you know, Cross 1396 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 2: has ascended James to a player where you would like 1397 01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 2: to keep around. I mean you drafted him as a 1398 01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 2: very young draft pick, like literally it was like twenty 1399 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 2: years ago, traded up to get him right, and then 1400 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:40,280 Speaker 2: he is I think earned a nice second contract. It's 1401 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 2: just money, roster mechanics. Can you really pay? I mean, 1402 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 2: what do you pay buying them four years and sixty million? 1403 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:47,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1404 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 2: Do you really have a similar contract for a cross. 1405 01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:51,920 Speaker 4: That's why I wouldn't go fifty to fifty on the 1406 01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 4: odds of him being back. I probably go somewhere between 1407 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 4: forty sixty thirty seventy because I just can't see you 1408 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 4: paying to safeties big money, especially knowing that you're not 1409 01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 4: one player away, like if you were. What was it 1410 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 4: the Rams a few years ago when they won it, 1411 01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:14,440 Speaker 4: they got rid of all their draft picks, and they 1412 01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 4: spent a bunch of money, and it was like, we're 1413 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 4: going all in on this one season because we got 1414 01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 4: the quarterback, we got the players, we've got Aaron Donald, 1415 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,080 Speaker 4: so let's just do it. That's not the case with 1416 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 4: the Colts. They need a lot of retooling, I think 1417 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:30,480 Speaker 4: to seriously be in contention next year. Now, I don't 1418 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:32,200 Speaker 4: think they will be in contention next year because so 1419 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 4: many factors are in play here, number one being the 1420 01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 4: healthier quarterback. But for the sake of argument, assuming Daniel 1421 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:42,959 Speaker 4: Jones is a good quarterback next year, let's say top 1422 01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 4: twelve ish in the NFL you need other pieces around him. 1423 01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,120 Speaker 4: I don't know if you can spend a big chunk 1424 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,440 Speaker 4: of that money pie on another safety. 1425 01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 1: George otom Just for the sake of argument, I looked 1426 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 1: it up because I didn't remember. But yeah, George odom Is, 1427 01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 1: he's still on the team. 1428 01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 2: Well, I have no idea is even in a contract 1429 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 2: for next year. I have to look and they sign 1430 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 2: them late in the season. 1431 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:06,840 Speaker 1: But to your point, off the top of my head, no, 1432 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,480 Speaker 1: I couldn't have named it passed the names that you mentioned. 1433 01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 1: So we'll continue to talk about the Colts throughout the offseason. 1434 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,240 Speaker 1: Of course, got the Super Bowl coming up. We'll tell 1435 01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 1: you more about that right now, Mark as we check 1436 01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 1: it down. 1437 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 6: The Morning Shutdown brought to you by the Barbosol Horizon 1438 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,200 Speaker 6: League Basketball champion. 1439 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 2: Hips, marsh Stars Year, the. 1440 01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:32,720 Speaker 6: Barbisol Horizon League Basketball Championships March eight through chans, tickets 1441 01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,479 Speaker 6: and more at Horisonleague dot com. 1442 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 1: Slash you indeed, Well, the Patriots and the Seahawks are 1443 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:41,320 Speaker 1: not worried about who their safeties are going to be 1444 01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:43,439 Speaker 1: next year, because the guys they have will be rolling 1445 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:47,680 Speaker 1: into the Super Bowl week after Sunday. They will be 1446 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,680 Speaker 1: taking part in Super Bowl sixty Patriots getting back there 1447 01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 1: for the twelfth time. I think Rams couldn't come up 1448 01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 1: with a big play they needed at the end to 1449 01:05:57,040 --> 01:05:59,960 Speaker 1: beat the Seahawks in a terrific game yesterday, a shootout 1450 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:03,120 Speaker 1: James thirty one to twenty seven. Sam Darnold three hundred 1451 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,040 Speaker 1: and forty six yards and three touchdowns. 1452 01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:08,480 Speaker 4: Yes, that is the most passing yards a Seahawks quarterback 1453 01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 4: has ever had in a playoff win. So pretty elite 1454 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 4: company for Sam Donald. 1455 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 1: Not a terrible day for Mats staff for three hundred 1456 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 1: and seventy four yards and three touchdowns, but couldn't quite 1457 01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 1: come up with a play at the very end. Some 1458 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 1: great television yesterday. I don't know if he saw they 1459 01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:27,200 Speaker 1: were showing a replay after that fourth down miss into 1460 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,560 Speaker 1: the end zone late in the fourth quarter with the Rams, 1461 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh running down the sideline thinking about whether or 1462 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,959 Speaker 1: not to call time out or take a different tack 1463 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:37,600 Speaker 1: on offense, and at the last minute you could see 1464 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 1: him decide to let it play and leave it as 1465 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:44,280 Speaker 1: it went. And the thing he feared. I think the 1466 01:06:44,320 --> 01:06:47,600 Speaker 1: Seahawks dropped nine guys into coverage and really only rushed 1467 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:49,520 Speaker 1: two and everybody was blanketed. 1468 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:52,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, great coverage by the Illinois grad They are the 1469 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:55,040 Speaker 2: very high pick. I believe the pick after Anthony Richardson 1470 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:59,200 Speaker 2: Devin Witherspoon on that fourth down play. That drive was 1471 01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 2: tremendous by the and then all of a sudden, you 1472 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 2: get down there in that Seattle defense stands tall and 1473 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:06,520 Speaker 2: then what a drive by Seattle then to kind of 1474 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 2: ice it. I mean, I know that Stafford, you know, 1475 01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:10,920 Speaker 2: got it to close to midfield there, but you know 1476 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:13,720 Speaker 2: that was going to be some heroic drive at that point. 1477 01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:15,960 Speaker 2: But Seattle what had two or three first downs I 1478 01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 2: think after that to try and close out that game. So, 1479 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,360 Speaker 2: you know, both games yesterday were outstanding for different reasons. 1480 01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 2: You know, the weather obviously played such a big factor 1481 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 2: in that first game. So yes, an early line of 1482 01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 2: about four or five I'm seeing here Seattle Seahawks favored 1483 01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:34,040 Speaker 2: over the New England Patriots coming up in Santa Clara. 1484 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Patriots beat the Broncos in Denver ten seven, and 1485 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 1: second half was a it just got worse and worse. 1486 01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 2: It was a whole blizzard by the end of the game. James. 1487 01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:44,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, it got to a point where you're wondering, can 1488 01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:47,160 Speaker 4: any team even score anymore, and that just didn't happen. 1489 01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 4: So the Patriots win with their fewest amount of points 1490 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 4: ever in a playoff victory. 1491 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:55,440 Speaker 1: Broncos had a chance to tie it in the fourth 1492 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,600 Speaker 1: quarter with a field goal, but there was a deflection 1493 01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 1: caused by the Patriots special teams and that took it 1494 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: offline and they hold on to win it by a 1495 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:03,880 Speaker 1: score of ten to seven. 1496 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:06,840 Speaker 2: Again, that Superosi could not put a chip on field goal. 1497 01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 2: I said it had to be a good field goal. 1498 01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:11,560 Speaker 2: There was some debate in the household if you know 1499 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,920 Speaker 2: it was a field goal attempt or made field goal. 1500 01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:16,360 Speaker 2: I decided they need to make it. And we're watching 1501 01:08:16,400 --> 01:08:17,640 Speaker 2: that game and all of these teams are doing with 1502 01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:18,439 Speaker 2: missing field goals. 1503 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 4: It was brutal. 1504 01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:20,679 Speaker 1: How popular were you the rest of the day. 1505 01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,280 Speaker 2: You know, someone's got to lay laws down and just 1506 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 2: hand out participation in trophies everywhere. 1507 01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:27,799 Speaker 1: It's been cold, we know that, but that didn't stop 1508 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:32,439 Speaker 1: several thousand, probably had twenty twenty five thousand folks getting 1509 01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:35,679 Speaker 1: down to Memorial Stadium on Saturday in the sub freezing 1510 01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:40,880 Speaker 1: temperatures to celebrate their national championship. There as Kurtzignett was 1511 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 1: he was just flat frozen by the end of that thing. 1512 01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: I didn't know some of those guys didn't seem like 1513 01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:48,800 Speaker 1: they were appropriately dressed for the weather. They had on 1514 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 1: like sweatshirts and hoodies and that was it. Man. But 1515 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 1: I guess youth will do that for you, James. 1516 01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,920 Speaker 4: I guess so. But yeah, you got the trophy, you 1517 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:58,840 Speaker 4: won it all. And when you did win it all, 1518 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,040 Speaker 4: you were down in Miami. You had a nice celebration 1519 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 4: in there. Coming back here, boy, it is cold, so 1520 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 4: I'm glad they got in and out pretty. 1521 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:08,880 Speaker 1: Much all right. And last over the weekend, I should say, 1522 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: last Friday night, PACER's got a surprise win over Oklahoma City, 1523 01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 1: won seventeen to one fourteen. Andrew Nemhard scored twenty seven. 1524 01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:19,960 Speaker 1: He's been terrific lately. But Jeris Walker guys twenty six 1525 01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 1: points and just playing all around great basketball against the 1526 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:25,920 Speaker 1: defending champions. 1527 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 4: Best game as a pro. 1528 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: I would think, are we starting to see either enough 1529 01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:33,439 Speaker 1: to trade him or do you keep him around moving forward? 1530 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's certainly debate. Over the next ten days. 1531 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 2: We'll see if Benedic Matherin plays here. Coming up this afternoon, 1532 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 2: He's been bumped up to questionable, which sometimes with these 1533 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:45,320 Speaker 2: injured guys this season, that's indicated that they'll play. But 1534 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:48,639 Speaker 2: you know, Walker needed this. You know, there's no debate 1535 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:51,839 Speaker 2: through three years who's been the better players. It's easily 1536 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:55,360 Speaker 2: been Matherin. But you know, right now, given the contract 1537 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,719 Speaker 2: year nature to Ben's career versus Jeris being a year younger, 1538 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,639 Speaker 2: you know that probably factors into it. I still would 1539 01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:06,880 Speaker 2: like to see more from Walker defensively like that long term. 1540 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:09,760 Speaker 2: I think that's what could serve this team best as 1541 01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:13,160 Speaker 2: him being a six eight, two hundred and whatever, twenty 1542 01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:18,520 Speaker 2: thirty pound you know, lockdown wing defender, but still, you know, offensively, 1543 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,760 Speaker 2: especially driving at Friday night, he had several takes to 1544 01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:23,160 Speaker 2: the rem that were very, very impressive. 1545 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 1: All Right, So the Pacers play today, not tonight, Kevin. 1546 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 1: They move that game up because of I see weather 1547 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 1: expected this evening down in Atlanta. So here's how it 1548 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:37,920 Speaker 1: looks today. On the fan regular scheduling, Jake will be 1549 01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,519 Speaker 1: on from noon to one, then we turn it over 1550 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 1: to the Pacers broadcast, have the greatest postgame show in 1551 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:46,720 Speaker 1: the world with Eddie White after the game, and then 1552 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:49,960 Speaker 1: around four forty five or five o'clock JMV comes through 1553 01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 1: until seven tonight. We're not going to let him off 1554 01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 1: that easy for you, James, just because you were complaining 1555 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: about it. And then we'll have inside EU Athletics at 1556 01:10:58,240 --> 01:10:58,960 Speaker 1: seven o'clock. 1557 01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, as Kevin pointed out earlier, we're only ones working today. 1558 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 4: Only one is putting in all the time. 1559 01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:10,320 Speaker 2: You imagine me questioning j MB's radio never takes a 1560 01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:12,320 Speaker 2: day off and works on two stations. This guy was 1561 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 2: here until midnight at Saturday night here it. 1562 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:18,719 Speaker 4: Was texting me Sunday morning. Can you make it. 1563 01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:19,759 Speaker 2: Ball his life? 1564 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:20,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1565 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:22,479 Speaker 2: I bet he did. Should we go around the horn 1566 01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:24,439 Speaker 2: and describe the commutes in for those that have not 1567 01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:28,120 Speaker 2: so far? Here Mark Dyked and you were downtown last night, 1568 01:11:28,760 --> 01:11:32,360 Speaker 2: you would say roads have certainly improved since you were 1569 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:33,120 Speaker 2: in here yesterday. 1570 01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, plows have touched them, so that's good. So still 1571 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 5: can't tell much of the street marking, so be careful there, 1572 01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 5: but definitely a big improvement from last night. I don't 1573 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,679 Speaker 5: know what the highways looked like though from every account 1574 01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 5: it apparently it's not great still. 1575 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:49,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, sixty five seventy split reportedly closed, so not good. 1576 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:52,360 Speaker 1: How was your commute in I. 1577 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,720 Speaker 2: Wouldn't say fully double the time, but close to it. 1578 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 2: You know, again, when we're driving in at whatever six am, 1579 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,240 Speaker 2: you pretty much have free rein of the of the 1580 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:04,439 Speaker 2: roadways there, so I was able to just pretty much 1581 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:09,679 Speaker 2: straddle the middle lane. But you know, side streets hadn't 1582 01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,360 Speaker 2: really been touched. And even it was probably the most 1583 01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:16,679 Speaker 2: snow I've seen on Meridian, you know, for a full day, 1584 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:20,559 Speaker 2: remove from especially the turn lanes. Yeah, and if you're 1585 01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:22,520 Speaker 2: going on side streets like I had to be rerouted 1586 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 2: down Sixteenth at one point there it was a stuck 1587 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:28,120 Speaker 2: Indigo bus that you know, they were sending us down 1588 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 2: sixteen like. Turning onto those types of streets, that's where 1589 01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 2: you can get a little dicey and per usual. I 1590 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:36,160 Speaker 2: think the hardest aspect is getting out of your own 1591 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,680 Speaker 2: For me, it's an alley getting out of your own alley, driveway, neighborhood. 1592 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:41,120 Speaker 2: That's that. That's your hardest part. 1593 01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:44,880 Speaker 1: James, you didn't have, yeah, pushovel in your car. You 1594 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:46,679 Speaker 1: had a shovel in your car, didn't you, James, Yeah, ill. 1595 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:48,519 Speaker 4: Keep your stuffling there for other reasons as well. 1596 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:55,040 Speaker 1: But alone do we have a Netflix series coming soon 1597 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:55,839 Speaker 1: Hey man. 1598 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 2: You know ever know when Mark Sanchez you keep talking, 1599 01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 2: you might be in it. But no, I just had 1600 01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:04,200 Speaker 2: to get off my work. 1601 01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:07,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just had to get off my street, which 1602 01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:10,519 Speaker 4: was the hardest part. My street is actually not that level. 1603 01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:13,320 Speaker 4: I didn't realize this until it like rain really hard once, 1604 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:15,840 Speaker 4: and boy, when it rains really hard, when it snows 1605 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:18,760 Speaker 4: really hard, it can get hard to get out. So 1606 01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 4: kept subl on me, spun it's hard a few times, 1607 01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:22,559 Speaker 4: got out of it, and then once I got on 1608 01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 4: the main road, that was pretty much fine. 1609 01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:24,439 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1610 01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:27,439 Speaker 1: I came from the north side and basically took Meridian 1611 01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:29,880 Speaker 1: almost all the way down to your point about time. 1612 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:32,799 Speaker 1: My twenty five minute commute was about forty minutes this morning. 1613 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,720 Speaker 1: Marian was on either side just one lane you know 1614 01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:38,759 Speaker 1: where they had plowed everything. 1615 01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:41,000 Speaker 2: And again very early this morning. 1616 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:43,120 Speaker 1: Wasn't a ton of traffic, but not a huge problem. 1617 01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 1: Just go slower than expect. 1618 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,480 Speaker 2: And a big thank you to everybody out there, first responders, 1619 01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:51,040 Speaker 2: essential workers, utility workers, aes.

Put up some munster stats 1689 01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:20,920 Speaker 1: last year. Kansas State edge rusher Toby asuon Sonni you 1690 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:22,760 Speaker 1: want to say that for me, James Auson sned me 1691 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:27,880 Speaker 1: right there, Michigan State receiver Nick Marsha and Wisconsin Wisconsin 1692 01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:31,240 Speaker 1: safety Preston Zachman. Most of the guys they left, and 1693 01:17:31,240 --> 01:17:34,320 Speaker 1: they have had four leave Indiana for the portal, most 1694 01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:40,479 Speaker 1: of them backups Mitch Verstegan the offensive lineman, cornerback Knighton 1695 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:45,920 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, to Pape and his brother Andrew de Pape, 1696 01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:47,920 Speaker 1: but William de Pape and Andrew de Pape the both 1697 01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:50,360 Speaker 1: of them defensive linemen. They are on their way out. 1698 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:53,360 Speaker 1: So all in all, not many losses, but some big additions. 1699 01:17:53,400 --> 01:17:55,240 Speaker 2: Kevin, Yeah, I don't think that's a full list, to 1700 01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:57,720 Speaker 2: be honest with you. I think that's still missing a 1701 01:17:57,840 --> 01:17:59,599 Speaker 2: few guys that they have lost there, So I don't 1702 01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 2: know if that's not updated or what. But yeah, I mean, 1703 01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 2: by all accounts, obviously, the portal hall. And I think 1704 01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 2: the big news now on this Monday morning is what 1705 01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:08,800 Speaker 2: will happen with ol Mark Cooper Junior. You know, is 1706 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 2: he You know when you see those parade or celebration 1707 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:13,360 Speaker 2: moments on Saturday, I kind of thought, boy, if he's 1708 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:14,920 Speaker 2: coming back, wouldn't it be a time to grab the 1709 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 2: mic and announce that right now, But that that didn't happen, 1710 01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 2: you know, I I don't know what they could have 1711 01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:25,640 Speaker 2: done in Bloomington. Mother nature was awful, but I just 1712 01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:27,280 Speaker 2: I wish there could have been a little bit more 1713 01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:29,519 Speaker 2: there from a celebration shaper, I frankly was all about 1714 01:18:29,520 --> 01:18:33,080 Speaker 2: the parade down Kirkwood, and I was serious about that, Like, 1715 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:35,240 Speaker 2: I think that would have been really cool. And again, 1716 01:18:35,240 --> 01:18:37,800 Speaker 2: i'll quote Matty Bowen watching that on Saturday, she was like, 1717 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:41,200 Speaker 2: this is painfully awkward and probably mostly the John Mellencamp 1718 01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:43,280 Speaker 2: aspect to it for anybody that watched it. It was 1719 01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:46,720 Speaker 2: quite something there in him and trying to do a 1720 01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:50,200 Speaker 2: sing along with the with the football players. So and 1721 01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:53,519 Speaker 2: you know, again the weather was just horrific there. So yeah, 1722 01:18:53,560 --> 01:18:55,320 Speaker 2: and I guess the wouldn't do Assembly Hall just clearly, 1723 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,320 Speaker 2: so up, Sorry, James. They didn't do Assembly Hall because 1724 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 2: they felt like they wanted more than seventeen thousand to 1725 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,479 Speaker 2: be able to calm, which I don't know. It'd probably 1726 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:06,920 Speaker 2: looked right around twenty what you say, Jeff, twenty thousand 1727 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,400 Speaker 2: or something like that, And obviously you would have had people, 1728 01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:13,519 Speaker 2: I guess standing outside of Assembly Hall in these frozen 1729 01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:17,160 Speaker 2: attempts to get into the building there and you're at 1730 01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:20,000 Speaker 2: the mercy now of all of these guys, I shouldn't 1731 01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:21,439 Speaker 2: say all of them, but a lot of them now 1732 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:25,680 Speaker 2: going to their respective All Star Games or James, you 1733 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:29,080 Speaker 2: know this full well. That draft prep begins now. Oh yeah, 1734 01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:32,160 Speaker 2: so the Elijah Suratz, you go train now for the combine. 1735 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:34,360 Speaker 2: You have a month. I mean we're less than a 1736 01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:36,800 Speaker 2: month away from the NFL Combine, so you now train 1737 01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 2: for a track meet here over the next four weeks. 1738 01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:40,720 Speaker 2: So I think that is why there was so much 1739 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:43,320 Speaker 2: pressure to have it, you know, done this past weekend. 1740 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then to finish up some of that list 1741 01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:46,439 Speaker 1: obviously was getting to Alberta. 1742 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:49,160 Speaker 2: Mendoza is the big name, not the big name, but 1743 01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:49,719 Speaker 2: the name. 1744 01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:52,160 Speaker 1: That people are like, Oh, some people wondered if he 1745 01:19:52,160 --> 01:19:55,320 Speaker 1: would be next in line after big brother Fernando leaves. 1746 01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:56,360 Speaker 2: But he's going to Georgia Tech. 1747 01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:58,559 Speaker 4: Oh they didn't wonder that soon. Did you pay the 1748 01:19:58,600 --> 01:19:59,519 Speaker 4: TCU quarterback? 1749 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 1: Well before that they were wondering.

You don't have to scroll 1769 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,680 Speaker 2: too far James to get that. Tyree Tucker is coming back, 1770 01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:53,639 Speaker 2: one of the better players trendy end of this past season. 1771 01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:56,040 Speaker 2: I believe one of the few James you guys left 1772 01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:58,240 Speaker 2: as well. So again, the olmar Cooper Junior news. I 1773 01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:01,200 Speaker 2: think that's the big one, you know at some point, 1774 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 2: and I have a feeling maybe Kurtzy Netty grabs a 1775 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 2: mic tomorrow night inside of Assembly Hall? Is there one more? 1776 01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,280 Speaker 2: Is he done? Once he said? Chapter three? Is he done? 1777 01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:13,719 Speaker 2: Or is the first home game since the national title, 1778 01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 2: and it is Purdue. Could that be the jolt they need? 1779 01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:22,320 Speaker 4: I don't think he does it. I don't think he does. 1780 01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:23,960 Speaker 2: It, to be honest, because we've moved on. 1781 01:21:24,160 --> 01:21:25,479 Speaker 4: Yep, because they moved on. 1782 01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:27,040 Speaker 2: He probably feels like he's set his piece. 1783 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:29,679 Speaker 4: Daran de Reese, figure out your own program, brother. 1784 01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:32,880 Speaker 2: Right off away. An, We're only going off with five 1785 01:21:32,920 --> 01:21:34,960 Speaker 2: or six days, and we'll get a lot, you know, 1786 01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:37,360 Speaker 2: into it tomorrow.

Uh. 1791 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:46,880 Speaker 2: And for Indiana, we still sit here as good as 1792 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:48,960 Speaker 2: Friday Night was for him. They've yet to beat a 1793 01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:49,639 Speaker 2: tournament team. 1794 01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:52,759 Speaker 1: I think this one's inn assembly right nine o'clock. 1795 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:56,679 Speaker 2: Peacock it up assembly haul.

You know how we roll around here. Believe 1798 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 2: the Wiener Mobile race won by who last year? 1799 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:08,040 Speaker 6: Oh? 1800 01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:09,559 Speaker 2: God, I don't remember who won that. I have to 1801 01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:12,600 Speaker 2: look that up. I remember you could take bets. 1802 01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:15,200 Speaker 4: On the disappointment on Kevin's face that you didn't know 1803 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:16,080 Speaker 4: off hand. 1804 01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:17,519 Speaker 2: I need to look it up. Mark was actually on 1805 01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:20,439 Speaker 2: it here on this Monday morning.

Now were we booing them? Weren't they 1819 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:49,759 Speaker 2: all from like certain regions of the country. 1820 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that was like Pacific Northwest or something 1821 01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:52,559 Speaker 5: like that. 1822 01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 2: Or weren't we booing the New England dog or whatever? 1823 01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:58,000 Speaker 2: And I wanted the Chicago Dog and the turn one wall. 1824 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:02,439 Speaker 1: Last year's event eighty five thousand fans in person and 1825 01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:05,559 Speaker 1: eight million live stream views. 1826 01:23:06,160 --> 01:23:09,599 Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you what I'm looking forward to this 1827 01:23:09,680 --> 01:23:12,800 Speaker 4: year's events. And really when we get to that part 1828 01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:15,120 Speaker 4: of the calendar of the year, I'm looking forward to 1829 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:18,960 Speaker 4: experiencing the five hundred again without the Pacers playing, because 1830 01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:22,439 Speaker 4: that was a long day, Kevin boy, that was a 1831 01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:24,439 Speaker 4: very long day for you, boy, and that was I 1832 01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:25,160 Speaker 4: enjoyed it though. 1833 01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,120 Speaker 2: That was one of the rare Pacer home losses. Yeah, 1834 01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 2: we had during that playoff run there, it's like. 1835 01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 4: They're like, oh for four or something like that. People 1836 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,160 Speaker 4: are like, all right, we've had enough of this Pacers 1837 01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 4: and Racers, Let's not do this again. 1838 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:37,599 Speaker 2: Won't have to worry about that this year. But Kurt 1839 01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:40,479 Speaker 2: Signetti driving the pace car waving the green flag seems 1840 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,200 Speaker 2: like a no brainer, right absolutely. 1841 01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:47,600 Speaker 1: Coaches championship games and uh, former Colts quarterback, we got 1842 01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:49,080 Speaker 1: some news to share with you coming up at a 1843 01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:51,080 Speaker 1: moment ninety three to five and one oh seven five 1844 01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:56,320 Speaker 1: the fans looking outside to the frigid parking lot, and 1845 01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 1: to remind to remind people if you have an indoor facility, 1846 01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 1: yes we have to see Super Bowl here in Indianapolis. 1847 01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:04,960 Speaker 1: Pretty legendary one too, isn't that Where the Giants put 1848 01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:07,320 Speaker 1: an end to the undefeated season for the New England Patriots, 1849 01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:10,760 Speaker 1: Kevin and the weather ND looked like this, No, And 1850 01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 1: then I was thinking they had one in Detroit too, 1851 01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:16,400 Speaker 1: back in two thousand and six, which you remembered even 1852 01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:18,439 Speaker 1: the year I said, didn't Detroit have a Super Bowl? 1853 01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:19,880 Speaker 1: And I started looking up and you said, yeah, two 1854 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:20,559 Speaker 1: thousand and six. 1855 01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:24,200 Speaker 2: And for miss Nick Harper year, yes, wide right right, 1856 01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:28,479 Speaker 2: vander Jacksfieldgal hits the Red Guard. Yeah, Ruster's history and 1857 01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 2: that one thing to note again, we're less than a 1858 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:31,720 Speaker 2: month away from the Combine. I was listening to Chris 1859 01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:34,439 Speaker 2: gall from Visit Indi over the weekend. He brought up 1860 01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:37,679 Speaker 2: one different aspect to visit Indy this year. They won't 1861 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:40,479 Speaker 2: you know we've had we typically have Chris on our 1862 01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:44,280 Speaker 2: show every year from the Combine. This year's focus won't 1863 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:47,160 Speaker 2: be so much about retaining the combine. That announcement happened 1864 01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:49,240 Speaker 2: on Friday. We know the Combine is going to be 1865 01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:52,719 Speaker 2: here for two more years. The NFL will be sending 1866 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:58,160 Speaker 2: people here to view Indianapolis as an NFL draft site. 1867 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:01,559 Speaker 2: I found it interesting when Chris mentioned some of the 1868 01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:06,160 Speaker 2: possible venues for that. I think we've discussed this before. 1869 01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:10,280 Speaker 2: The Speedway, I think is what some people thought could 1870 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:12,719 Speaker 2: be used, you know, when you've seen the Super Bowl 1871 01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 2: go to these respective cities, or excuse me, the draft 1872 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,719 Speaker 2: go to these respective cities. In recent years they've used 1873 01:25:17,760 --> 01:25:19,799 Speaker 2: you know, kind of their iconic spots in the city. 1874 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 2: But Chris mentioned Military Park right here, the south side 1875 01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:28,280 Speaker 2: of Lucas Oil and then potentially White River State Park. 1876 01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:31,760 Speaker 2: So I thought that was interesting. But that aspect is 1877 01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:35,439 Speaker 2: different for visit Indy with the NFL this year during 1878 01:25:35,479 --> 01:25:39,760 Speaker 2: the combine. So yeah, I've said this before. I don't 1879 01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:42,680 Speaker 2: really get the NFL draft crowd, to be honest with you, 1880 01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 2: doesn't sound like it sounds like Time Square on New 1881 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:47,280 Speaker 2: Year's Eve. I'm gonna be totally honest, but I can't 1882 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:49,639 Speaker 2: ignore the crowds that these cities get. I mean, it's 1883 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,599 Speaker 2: wild how many people show up to watch names get announced. 1884 01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:55,479 Speaker 2: Some people just looking for an excuse to party. 1885 01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:58,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I also think it's just proof that the 1886 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 4: NFL is king. I mean, they make an event out 1887 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,120 Speaker 4: of everything. Yes, the schedule release is like the super 1888 01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 4: Bowl for social media teams, and I'm not joking about that. 1889 01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:07,960 Speaker 4: They actually put a lot of time and effort into 1890 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:08,320 Speaker 4: those things. 1891 01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:10,800 Speaker 2: Good one for the colts last year, if I remember, well, 1892 01:26:10,800 --> 01:26:11,439 Speaker 2: they put a. 1893 01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 4: Little bit more time and effort into those things this 1894 01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 4: time around. But my point is they make everything a spectacle, 1895 01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:20,320 Speaker 4: So I'm not surprised by the crowds. I think I 1896 01:26:20,479 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 4: certainly don't want to judge them too harshly, because hey, 1897 01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:25,280 Speaker 4: you want to have a good time, you want to 1898 01:26:25,280 --> 01:26:27,519 Speaker 4: give your team some hope, and I feel like that's 1899 01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:31,000 Speaker 4: one of the events, Kevin, along with the Combine, along 1900 01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 4: with the Senior Bowl, things like that, where everybody has 1901 01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:36,439 Speaker 4: an opportunity to get better in theory. 1902 01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:38,639 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say this on air, 1903 01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:43,680 Speaker 2: but it's a Monday, it's a snow day. Let's be 1904 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,559 Speaker 2: are really the people? Is the FCC really working now? Mark? 1905 01:26:47,600 --> 01:26:49,439 Speaker 1: Do you have the dump dum button ready to go? 1906 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:50,880 Speaker 2: I do, I don't know whom I touch it. That 1907 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:52,720 Speaker 2: kind of our biggest news item of the morning is 1908 01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:59,160 Speaker 2: what Philip Rivers withdrawn from the Buffalo Bills boy say it. 1909 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:02,040 Speaker 2: I know what you're talking out and I fully approve 1910 01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 2: Patrick on Twitter. The first time Philip Rivers ever pulled 1911 01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:13,679 Speaker 2: out anything you're not gonna get am I good? 1912 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:14,000 Speaker 9: Yeah? 1913 01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:16,000 Speaker 2: You're good with that one. Truthful statement there. 1914 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:19,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, No one could misinterpret that for anything else. 1915 01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 1: If they do, it's their own mind, right, get. 1916 01:27:22,160 --> 01:27:23,920 Speaker 2: Your mind out of the gutter. Shut out to Philip 1917 01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 2: Rivers for pulling out here on this Monday morning. Sounds 1918 01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 2: like the Buffalo Bills will look elsewhere, lou Anrumo. Right, 1919 01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 2: didn't he interview there so that could still be a thing. 1920 01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:35,400 Speaker 4: Yes, Can I say this real quick? 1921 01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:38,360 Speaker 2: Oh you want to go back to the polling out part? 1922 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:40,760 Speaker 4: Let me let's go back. Let's go back to this now. 1923 01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 1: You're making sure that they think of it. 1924 01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:42,639 Speaker 2: That one one. 1925 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:46,320 Speaker 4: It's a good decision that he made. A lot of 1926 01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 4: people out there probably have thought about that. 1927 01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:52,959 Speaker 2: And the pay there colloge age, it's good fall soon exactly, 1928 01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:54,879 Speaker 2: But for his age, that's impressing. 1929 01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 4: Shut up, all y'all. I get to a point. So 1930 01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:02,880 Speaker 4: in all serious is I thought that was ridiculous that 1931 01:28:02,920 --> 01:28:05,280 Speaker 4: he even got an interview, to be honest with you, Like, 1932 01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 4: when I saw that and read that, I was thinking 1933 01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 4: to myself, Oh, the Bills are one of the dumbest 1934 01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:11,479 Speaker 4: franchises in the NFL. 1935 01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:13,960 Speaker 2: See, this is where I would differ. I'm good with 1936 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:19,360 Speaker 2: interviewing any and all. And I also think you might 1937 01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:25,000 Speaker 2: do some of these things for coordinators. Let's interview these 1938 01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:26,680 Speaker 2: guys and if they don't get the head coaching job, 1939 01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:30,479 Speaker 2: maybe they're coordinators or down the road, and just give 1940 01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:33,160 Speaker 2: me intel. If Philip River shares something in that interview, 1941 01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:35,960 Speaker 2: let's say the interview is ten hours long, share something 1942 01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:38,960 Speaker 2: in that interview of like, wow, I never thought of 1943 01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:42,360 Speaker 2: offensive football like that, and you're Brandon Bean. I dropped 1944 01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:44,479 Speaker 2: that down on my paper. And then when we hire 1945 01:28:44,520 --> 01:28:46,840 Speaker 2: lou Anarumo as a defensive head coach, I say to 1946 01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:48,760 Speaker 2: lou you know what, we had Philip Rivers in here. 1947 01:28:48,920 --> 01:28:51,000 Speaker 2: He brought up this aspect to the offensive side of 1948 01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:53,679 Speaker 2: the ball. What do you think about that? I would 1949 01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:57,720 Speaker 2: just use it to frankly, probably not give all these 1950 01:28:57,760 --> 01:29:00,160 Speaker 2: people fair shots at it, but for my own intilll 1951 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:01,720 Speaker 2: that's how I view it. 1952 01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:05,559 Speaker 4: God bless you, Kevin. I understand your reasoning behind that, 1953 01:29:05,640 --> 01:29:08,200 Speaker 4: but I'm not interviewing anybody for the head coach of 1954 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:11,599 Speaker 4: the Buffalo Bills when we just fired the guy who 1955 01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 4: has won a playoff game every year for the last 1956 01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,839 Speaker 4: six years, and you have no NFL or college coaching experience, 1957 01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 4: And I love you Daniel Jeremiah NFL Network. He tweeted 1958 01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:25,519 Speaker 4: something like, oh, well, Philip Rivers was essentially the offensive 1959 01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:29,839 Speaker 4: coordinator when he played. No, he was not. He wasn't. Otherwise, 1960 01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:31,960 Speaker 4: what the heck was the other offensive coordinator doing? And oh, 1961 01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:33,840 Speaker 4: by the way, not to be too petty, but I'm like, 1962 01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:36,720 Speaker 4: if he was such a great offensive mind, how come 1963 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:37,920 Speaker 4: he never won a Super Bowl? 1964 01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:42,200 Speaker 2: I mean, my god, Philip Rivers cutting straight? 1965 01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:45,519 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just like, at some point we gotta 1966 01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:47,800 Speaker 4: start looking at looking at resumes here. 1967 01:29:47,960 --> 01:29:49,680 Speaker 2: Maybe he shouldn't have pulled out man, he. 1968 01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:52,479 Speaker 4: Read the same resume. He ran the same offense as 1969 01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:55,280 Speaker 4: the Colts have the last few years. No, he did not. 1970 01:29:55,400 --> 01:29:56,400 Speaker 4: It's a high school team. 1971 01:29:56,600 --> 01:30:00,519 Speaker 2: He's gonna start PG thirteen swearing it.

That's what 1977 01:30:11,439 --> 01:30:13,080 Speaker 5: that was. It was just all you're a quarterback in 1978 01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:13,559 Speaker 5: the NFL. 1979 01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:15,920 Speaker 2: You can get an interview.

Let's let's not pretend that 1999 01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 4: he's something other than that. 2000 01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:06,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and in all seriousness, you got Josh Allen. You 2001 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:13,560 Speaker 1: want an offensive mind who's got deep, at least coordinating, 2002 01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:15,439 Speaker 1: if not head coaching experience in the NFL. 2003 01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:16,960 Speaker 2: For a guy like that, don't you You have to 2004 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:17,840 Speaker 2: have the offensive mine. 2005 01:31:18,520 --> 01:31:21,680 Speaker 1: I think if I'm hiring my next coach. And a 2006 01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:22,920 Speaker 1: lot of it goes back to what you were talking 2007 01:31:22,960 --> 01:31:24,960 Speaker 1: about the other day, Kevin, where a couple of defensive coaches. 2008 01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:26,559 Speaker 2: See you see def. 2009 01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:29,400 Speaker 1: I get it, but you see defensive coaches get fired, 2010 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:32,120 Speaker 1: and usually it's an offensive coach that gets hired next. 2011 01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:35,200 Speaker 1: Same same thing on the other side. I got Josh Allen. 2012 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:38,120 Speaker 1: I want someone who's going to get the absolute maximum 2013 01:31:38,120 --> 01:31:39,480 Speaker 1: best out of him. 2014 01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:42,040 Speaker 2: I think their defense also had some questions this year, 2015 01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:43,760 Speaker 2: So I don't know. You know that we get this 2016 01:31:43,840 --> 01:31:45,680 Speaker 2: debate all the time, and you know, is it the 2017 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,679 Speaker 2: CEO or is it not two CEO coaches? Does McDonald 2018 01:31:48,760 --> 01:31:52,920 Speaker 2: call the defensive plays? Rabel doesn't Rabel? I think it's 2019 01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:54,920 Speaker 2: just it. He is such a great job in game. 2020 01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 2: He was all over that yesterday on the Jared Stidham 2021 01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:00,679 Speaker 2: looking like Rosie Bowen throwing a chess pass. 2022 01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:05,479 Speaker 4: That was such a dumb decision, which. 2023 01:32:05,320 --> 01:32:07,760 Speaker 1: Is dumber the Tennessee Titans letting Vrabel go or the 2024 01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:10,640 Speaker 1: decision by Jared Stidham to try the two hands shovel it. 2025 01:32:11,640 --> 01:32:13,559 Speaker 2: I know, I just thought to myself, Man, I know 2026 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:15,320 Speaker 2: Colts fans have had it rough right now, but man, 2027 01:32:15,360 --> 01:32:17,559 Speaker 2: you imagine Titans and Bills fans waking up today. 2028 01:32:18,320 --> 01:32:23,080 Speaker 1: Man, well you got the Seattle Seahawks and the Well, 2029 01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, the Los Angeles Rams got beat 2030 01:32:25,320 --> 01:32:26,920 Speaker 1: by the Seahawks yesterday, but you got them in the 2031 01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:28,320 Speaker 1: New England Patriots coming up. 2032 01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:29,360 Speaker 3: And I don't know. 2033 01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:32,599 Speaker 1: I like the five points for Seattle right now.

I don't know, maybe it's a 2115 01:35:56,720 --> 01:35:59,519 Speaker 2: little bit of a people that listen to it, I 2116 01:35:59,520 --> 01:36:02,559 Speaker 2: think would be prize about how little in return some 2117 01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:03,920 Speaker 2: of those players got. 2118 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:06,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a big part of the cliff notes is 2119 01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:09,240 Speaker 8: just if you get to a point as a team 2120 01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:12,519 Speaker 8: where you have a player in the situation Ben Matherins 2121 01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:14,880 Speaker 8: and now so the final year of their rookie contract 2122 01:36:15,120 --> 01:36:18,200 Speaker 8: and they're on the trademarket at all, there's usually a 2123 01:36:18,240 --> 01:36:20,240 Speaker 8: reason for that, and that reason is usually not that 2124 01:36:20,240 --> 01:36:23,719 Speaker 8: they're really really good, you know, and you know someone 2125 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:26,280 Speaker 8: you want to have a long time on a team, 2126 01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:29,280 Speaker 8: because restricted for agency is such a strong tool to 2127 01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:32,240 Speaker 8: keep a player and sign them to a potentially a 2128 01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:34,680 Speaker 8: team from the contract that if you know someone is 2129 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:37,720 Speaker 8: the perfect fit or really really fantastic for you, they 2130 01:36:37,720 --> 01:36:40,280 Speaker 8: don't get traded very often. And so in this realm 2131 01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:43,160 Speaker 8: of the current kind of CBA and what it means 2132 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:45,360 Speaker 8: for teams, there hasn't even been a first round pick 2133 01:36:45,400 --> 01:36:49,280 Speaker 8: exchange for a player traded in that situation during the season. 2134 01:36:49,320 --> 01:36:50,120 Speaker 3: You know, some guys have. 2135 01:36:50,080 --> 01:36:51,200 Speaker 10: Gone for decent value. 2136 01:36:51,240 --> 01:36:54,360 Speaker 8: I think ruyat Chimura got you know, the Whitherard's got 2137 01:36:54,680 --> 01:36:57,000 Speaker 8: real stuff for him, for example, but not a first 2138 01:36:57,040 --> 01:36:59,479 Speaker 8: round pick. It was a bunch of seconds and a 2139 01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:02,720 Speaker 8: useful rotation level player. And I wanted to go through 2140 01:37:02,720 --> 01:37:05,519 Speaker 8: that just to see what like a baseline expectation should 2141 01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:08,240 Speaker 8: be for a better nex Matherin, because the team that 2142 01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:10,919 Speaker 8: would be wanting to acquire him, of course, like the Pacers. 2143 01:37:10,960 --> 01:37:13,240 Speaker 8: Even again, I'm not even say that the Pacers should want 2144 01:37:13,280 --> 01:37:13,840 Speaker 8: to trade him. 2145 01:37:13,760 --> 01:37:14,439 Speaker 2: Or anything like that. 2146 01:37:14,840 --> 01:37:16,840 Speaker 8: Would know that he is good and would know that 2147 01:37:17,080 --> 01:37:19,200 Speaker 8: a lot of potential. I mean, his games to start 2148 01:37:19,240 --> 01:37:21,200 Speaker 8: this season, like not that many guys in the NBA 2149 01:37:21,240 --> 01:37:23,759 Speaker 8: could even do that, and he's twenty two or whatever 2150 01:37:23,800 --> 01:37:24,160 Speaker 8: he is. 2151 01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:27,320 Speaker 11: But at the same time, you know there's a reason that. 2152 01:37:27,280 --> 01:37:28,880 Speaker 10: He'd be available, and you have to pay him in 2153 01:37:28,880 --> 01:37:29,400 Speaker 10: the summer. 2154 01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:31,799 Speaker 8: And that is the part that's tricky for other teams 2155 01:37:31,880 --> 01:37:34,360 Speaker 8: is if he's a fairly paid player all of a 2156 01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:36,479 Speaker 8: sudden and you don't know what his potential is, your 2157 01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:39,200 Speaker 8: high fits in your building, it's harder for teams to 2158 01:37:39,200 --> 01:37:40,800 Speaker 8: commit as many assets to that. 2159 01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:42,360 Speaker 10: So I think that I. 2160 01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:44,839 Speaker 8: Wanted to go through that to see what the Pacers 2161 01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:47,599 Speaker 8: should expect or what is reasonable to kind of start 2162 01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:48,840 Speaker 8: as a baseline. 2163 01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:51,000 Speaker 10: Expectation for a trade. And it's not quite as high 2164 01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:51,479 Speaker 10: as you think. 2165 01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:54,880 Speaker 8: Even in situations where like with Ruy or some other 2166 01:37:54,920 --> 01:37:57,880 Speaker 8: decent players they're actually good are still in rotations to 2167 01:37:57,920 --> 01:37:58,559 Speaker 8: this day. 2168 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:00,760 Speaker 2: Okay, and then one more on the other in front. 2169 01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:04,840 Speaker 2: I believe Jake Fisher had reported that the pacer and 2170 01:38:04,880 --> 01:38:08,599 Speaker 2: again clarify any of my language here, Tony, they would 2171 01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:13,640 Speaker 2: have some interest potentially. And Eve Misi from the Pelicans. 2172 01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 2: I don't know how household of a name that is 2173 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:19,400 Speaker 2: to NBA fans, former first round pick, but could you 2174 01:38:19,439 --> 01:38:22,200 Speaker 2: explain a little bit on who he is and again 2175 01:38:22,280 --> 01:38:24,200 Speaker 2: clear up any language that I might have butchered there. 2176 01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:28,080 Speaker 8: No, that was what was reported, And yeah, he was 2177 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:30,000 Speaker 8: first round pick last year and started a bunch of 2178 01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:33,160 Speaker 8: games the Pelicans, and then the Pelicans got new front 2179 01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 8: office people and now you're gonna come off the bench now, 2180 01:38:36,240 --> 01:38:38,400 Speaker 8: and they signed Kavon Looney and they've played somebody that 2181 01:38:38,439 --> 01:38:41,440 Speaker 8: I met. Very few people listening non named Carlo Markovich 2182 01:38:41,560 --> 01:38:44,519 Speaker 8: over him sometimes, which is not a glowing resume. 2183 01:38:44,600 --> 01:38:45,519 Speaker 2: But he is a good player. 2184 01:38:46,240 --> 01:38:48,280 Speaker 11: He's six to eleven, he's moderately fast. 2185 01:38:48,320 --> 01:38:51,519 Speaker 8: He had a huge block on Pascal Siakam when the 2186 01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:53,880 Speaker 8: Pelicans were in Indy a couple of weeks ago. Like, 2187 01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:57,400 Speaker 8: he does have some serious power and pop to his game. 2188 01:38:58,320 --> 01:39:01,320 Speaker 8: Good rebounder, but no spacing at all. He's never made 2189 01:39:01,320 --> 01:39:04,320 Speaker 8: a three in the NBA. Defense is still improving. Certainly, 2190 01:39:04,360 --> 01:39:06,800 Speaker 8: there's a reason he was the twenty first pick in 2191 01:39:06,840 --> 01:39:09,160 Speaker 8: the draft, like he'd be useful, and the fact that 2192 01:39:09,200 --> 01:39:13,080 Speaker 8: he's very young and is already a rotation quality players 2193 01:39:13,120 --> 01:39:15,680 Speaker 8: of course appealing because that means his contract is very 2194 01:39:15,680 --> 01:39:18,280 Speaker 8: good and for the Pacers that's meaningful as they kind 2195 01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:20,479 Speaker 8: of are going to be navigating in the next two 2196 01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:24,479 Speaker 8: three years of the you know, Haliburt and Fiakam contract life, 2197 01:39:24,520 --> 01:39:26,080 Speaker 8: and that might even extend beyond that. 2198 01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:30,120 Speaker 10: Is they'd chief contributors, right and he is one of those. 2199 01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,719 Speaker 8: He would have value to the Pacers at their position 2200 01:39:32,840 --> 01:39:36,000 Speaker 8: of you know, most question mark right now. But I 2201 01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:38,439 Speaker 8: would I would think, and you know, my initial reaction was, 2202 01:39:38,439 --> 01:39:40,679 Speaker 8: I would think Ben Mather would have more trade value 2203 01:39:40,720 --> 01:39:43,120 Speaker 8: than him, and salary wise, it would you know, the 2204 01:39:43,160 --> 01:39:44,920 Speaker 8: Pelicans would probably have to throw in a little bit 2205 01:39:44,920 --> 01:39:45,400 Speaker 8: more money. 2206 01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:46,720 Speaker 10: So I don't think that would be the. 2207 01:39:46,720 --> 01:39:49,479 Speaker 8: Complete framework of a deal, but there is good sense 2208 01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:51,920 Speaker 8: at least to the structure of starting with those two 2209 01:39:52,000 --> 01:39:54,280 Speaker 8: players and then figuring something out. And hey, the last 2210 01:39:54,320 --> 01:39:56,080 Speaker 8: time the Pacers shared with the Pelicans, that worked out 2211 01:39:56,120 --> 01:39:57,439 Speaker 8: absolutely great for the Pacers. 2212 01:39:57,479 --> 01:40:01,280 Speaker 4: So so Tony, forget what they were talking about. I 2213 01:40:01,360 --> 01:40:03,240 Speaker 4: have the real questions here I'm going to take athigh 2214 01:40:03,320 --> 01:40:07,360 Speaker 4: dot com, you know, for the NBA, and the Pacers 2215 01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:11,080 Speaker 4: have the second worst record in the NBA. So assuming 2216 01:40:11,479 --> 01:40:13,680 Speaker 4: that the ping pong balls bounced the right way, they 2217 01:40:13,720 --> 01:40:16,680 Speaker 4: end with a top five pick for I believe the 2218 01:40:16,680 --> 01:40:19,120 Speaker 4: first time in several years, I want to say decades 2219 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:20,720 Speaker 4: for this team, because even been in Matherin a few 2220 01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:24,360 Speaker 4: years ago was number six. Are you choosing the best player? 2221 01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:28,120 Speaker 4: Because I've had the debate online with Pacers fans and 2222 01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:31,000 Speaker 4: they're like, oh, well, what if aj De Bands is 2223 01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:34,760 Speaker 4: a better fit than Darren Peterson or Cam Boozer is 2224 01:40:34,760 --> 01:40:37,240 Speaker 4: a better fit than Caleb Wilson. 2225 01:40:37,360 --> 01:40:39,080 Speaker 3: But is it? 2226 01:40:39,240 --> 01:40:40,960 Speaker 4: Don't you just pick the best player if you're picking 2227 01:40:40,960 --> 01:40:42,679 Speaker 4: that high, regardless of the position. 2228 01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:45,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think in a ten eight nine would be 2229 01:40:45,360 --> 01:40:48,840 Speaker 8: their last inside top five pick, and I agree on 2230 01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:51,240 Speaker 8: one hundred percent that you picked I would pick the 2231 01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:55,400 Speaker 8: best player regardless of fit. The way this could spread 2232 01:40:55,400 --> 01:40:57,679 Speaker 8: out the most to me is when I talk about Kamboozer, 2233 01:40:57,760 --> 01:40:59,720 Speaker 8: people say, well, they have Obie, they have Pascal. I 2234 01:40:59,760 --> 01:41:02,160 Speaker 8: would they want somebody at that spot if. 2235 01:41:02,040 --> 01:41:03,760 Speaker 10: They're you know, even if they're the best player. 2236 01:41:03,800 --> 01:41:06,960 Speaker 8: It's like, you know, maybe you'd be concerned about that 2237 01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:09,840 Speaker 8: for a year. Like we just saw Jarris Walker go 2238 01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:11,759 Speaker 8: through this right where he was not in the rotation 2239 01:41:11,880 --> 01:41:16,120 Speaker 8: behind those exact two players in his first season with 2240 01:41:16,200 --> 01:41:17,479 Speaker 8: the Pacers, among other things. 2241 01:41:17,560 --> 01:41:19,920 Speaker 10: But like to me, one hundred percent, you picked the best. 2242 01:41:19,800 --> 01:41:22,360 Speaker 8: Player, especially if at the top of this draft as 2243 01:41:22,360 --> 01:41:23,320 Speaker 8: good as people. 2244 01:41:23,040 --> 01:41:24,760 Speaker 10: Say that these players are. 2245 01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:26,680 Speaker 8: If you think they're the best player, and do you 2246 01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:28,160 Speaker 8: think they're going to be the best player, that you 2247 01:41:28,240 --> 01:41:29,000 Speaker 8: pick them and you. 2248 01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:30,759 Speaker 10: Figure it out how to play them. 2249 01:41:30,680 --> 01:41:32,880 Speaker 11: On the floor or what their future could be. 2250 01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:34,479 Speaker 10: And I always say the same thing. 2251 01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:37,160 Speaker 8: The only player on the Pacers right now who was 2252 01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:40,240 Speaker 8: on the Pacers five years ago is TJ McConnell. And 2253 01:41:40,320 --> 01:41:42,040 Speaker 8: I get that they weren't very good five. 2254 01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:44,800 Speaker 11: Years ago, But the NBA, your roster changes. 2255 01:41:44,560 --> 01:41:48,200 Speaker 8: So fast nowadays, right It's you know, if you go 2256 01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:50,240 Speaker 8: back five years and then did the same exercise, that 2257 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:52,160 Speaker 8: it will still have be one guy. It's Miles Turner, right, 2258 01:41:52,479 --> 01:41:56,040 Speaker 8: So in five years from now, granted the Pacers are 2259 01:41:56,120 --> 01:41:57,599 Speaker 8: very good right now, so they might want to keep 2260 01:41:57,640 --> 01:41:58,160 Speaker 8: some more. 2261 01:41:58,040 --> 01:41:58,599 Speaker 3: Of these guys. 2262 01:41:58,600 --> 01:42:02,519 Speaker 8: In a typical situation, you know you're not gonna have 2263 01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:04,840 Speaker 8: most of your team it's just how it is right 2264 01:42:04,880 --> 01:42:07,599 Speaker 8: that everybody wants to get paid or you you make trades. 2265 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:10,479 Speaker 11: Whatever guy's situations today just change. 2266 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:12,920 Speaker 10: So you want to have the best player on your 2267 01:42:12,920 --> 01:42:14,439 Speaker 10: team for as long as possible. 2268 01:42:14,439 --> 01:42:17,719 Speaker 8: And if that means picking somebody who's positional fit, maybe 2269 01:42:17,880 --> 01:42:20,400 Speaker 8: right away on day one isn't as good, you still 2270 01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:22,120 Speaker 8: do it. So if they think Peterson's the best fit, 2271 01:42:22,120 --> 01:42:23,760 Speaker 8: they should do it. If they, you know, whoever it. 2272 01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:25,680 Speaker 11: Is, if they get the top pick, and it's gonna be. 2273 01:42:25,680 --> 01:42:28,360 Speaker 8: Weird to have to explain that after the Goga pick 2274 01:42:28,360 --> 01:42:29,040 Speaker 8: a few years ago. 2275 01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:30,519 Speaker 10: But I absolutely think that's what they should do. 2276 01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:32,600 Speaker 4: Okay, that makes a lot of sense, because you know, 2277 01:42:32,640 --> 01:42:35,759 Speaker 4: I'll make sure relatest message to AJ Debands, Darren Peterson, 2278 01:42:36,200 --> 01:42:38,559 Speaker 4: Caleb Wilson, and a few others out there. I mean, hey, 2279 01:42:38,800 --> 01:42:41,080 Speaker 4: even Keton Walgler. You know I'm not opposed to him. 2280 01:42:41,120 --> 01:42:42,799 Speaker 4: My god, being in a PACER's uniform. 2281 01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:43,639 Speaker 11: Holy cow. 2282 01:42:44,439 --> 01:42:49,040 Speaker 10: Just saying Tony forty six in Mackie unbelievable. 2283 01:42:49,320 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 4: Well, you know, I had to get something to cheer 2284 01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:54,479 Speaker 4: four after your school, you know, beat. 2285 01:42:54,320 --> 01:42:57,559 Speaker 2: The Illinois hoodie this morning, Tony there you go. 2286 01:42:57,760 --> 01:43:00,240 Speaker 10: Oh my goodness, well, you picked a god data do it? 2287 01:43:00,280 --> 01:43:02,759 Speaker 10: I suppose, But that's that's. 2288 01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:03,439 Speaker 3: Amazing, Tony. 2289 01:43:03,720 --> 01:43:06,519 Speaker 2: Is there anyone you know we talked so much Matherin 2290 01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:08,800 Speaker 2: and Walker in regards to the trade deadline a week 2291 01:43:08,840 --> 01:43:12,120 Speaker 2: from Thursday? I mean, you know, and understandably they're again 2292 01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:15,080 Speaker 2: former top ten picks and you can debate their respective 2293 01:43:15,120 --> 01:43:17,080 Speaker 2: grad I think their first off their debates are very different, 2294 01:43:17,120 --> 01:43:20,000 Speaker 2: to be clear, but contractually that obviously plays into some 2295 01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:22,200 Speaker 2: of it. Is there anyone else like on the team, 2296 01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:24,720 Speaker 2: Like I get expiring contracts? You know, this is not 2297 01:43:24,800 --> 01:43:27,040 Speaker 2: Turner from last year, mathering this year, But like, is 2298 01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:29,160 Speaker 2: there anyone else that you know we should maybe be 2299 01:43:29,160 --> 01:43:32,120 Speaker 2: discussing a little bit more, or you're just generally curious about, 2300 01:43:32,160 --> 01:43:36,559 Speaker 2: Like I feel like McConnell and Toppins names occasionally pop 2301 01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:38,479 Speaker 2: up into some of this stuff. Is there anybody else 2302 01:43:38,479 --> 01:43:39,720 Speaker 2: we should be keeping an eye out for? 2303 01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:40,840 Speaker 10: Yeah? 2304 01:43:40,920 --> 01:43:43,320 Speaker 8: You always here McConnell on top, and just because they're 2305 01:43:43,360 --> 01:43:47,200 Speaker 8: that mid size contract player who doesn't start, so they 2306 01:43:47,200 --> 01:43:48,960 Speaker 8: know it's feel like they could get moved. 2307 01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:50,280 Speaker 10: But the Pacers rely. 2308 01:43:50,160 --> 01:43:52,160 Speaker 8: On less guys so much that I wouldn't expect you 2309 01:43:52,200 --> 01:43:54,240 Speaker 8: there of them. The guy I have my eye on 2310 01:43:54,320 --> 01:43:57,320 Speaker 8: besides the two you said, would be Isaiah Jackson. Not 2311 01:43:57,400 --> 01:43:59,880 Speaker 8: that he's had a bad season per se, he is. 2312 01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:02,320 Speaker 8: Numbers are almost exactly the same as last season in 2313 01:44:02,360 --> 01:44:03,200 Speaker 8: almost every way. 2314 01:44:03,960 --> 01:44:05,799 Speaker 10: But and you know he's coming back. 2315 01:44:05,600 --> 01:44:09,280 Speaker 8: From a torn achilles, so reasonable to expect the season 2316 01:44:09,320 --> 01:44:11,840 Speaker 8: that he's had a slower start and then playing better 2317 01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:14,000 Speaker 8: of late, but not necessarily awesome. 2318 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:14,880 Speaker 10: Especially after the concussion. 2319 01:44:15,360 --> 01:44:18,679 Speaker 8: It's just that he makes. You know, seven million dollars 2320 01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:20,719 Speaker 8: is not a lot in the NBA. You can manage 2321 01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:22,439 Speaker 8: your way around that in terms of what it does 2322 01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:25,599 Speaker 8: to your cap sheet. But if you have Jay Huff 2323 01:44:25,800 --> 01:44:29,120 Speaker 8: above him and your rotational pecking order, or you're very 2324 01:44:29,120 --> 01:44:32,280 Speaker 8: often choosing Michael Potter above him and the rotational pecking order, 2325 01:44:32,320 --> 01:44:34,519 Speaker 8: and at some point in the next you know, eight 2326 01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:37,840 Speaker 8: months before next season starts, everybody assumes, including myself, that 2327 01:44:37,920 --> 01:44:41,639 Speaker 8: they will trade for a very high level center. Okay, Dad, 2328 01:44:41,720 --> 01:44:44,080 Speaker 8: Jackson making seven million dollars to be your third or 2329 01:44:44,080 --> 01:44:44,839 Speaker 8: fourth big. 2330 01:44:44,720 --> 01:44:45,519 Speaker 10: Does not makes sense. 2331 01:44:45,560 --> 01:44:48,479 Speaker 8: Like that contract, well, it's probably not an overpay, maybe 2332 01:44:48,479 --> 01:44:50,599 Speaker 8: a flight overpay. It's not one that the Pacers should 2333 01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:54,280 Speaker 8: want on their books. So the match there between what 2334 01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:58,519 Speaker 8: his role might become, and what his salary is isn't there, 2335 01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:01,439 Speaker 8: And so he's somebody that if there's another team that 2336 01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:03,800 Speaker 8: views him as somebody they'd like to give a shot 2337 01:45:03,880 --> 01:45:06,000 Speaker 8: over the rest of his deal, or he could be 2338 01:45:06,160 --> 01:45:08,880 Speaker 8: salary in a trade for a player that does fit 2339 01:45:08,920 --> 01:45:12,000 Speaker 8: the Pacers, either as their center now or just contract 2340 01:45:12,040 --> 01:45:12,719 Speaker 8: you a little better. 2341 01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:14,479 Speaker 10: He's I think, besides the. 2342 01:45:14,439 --> 01:45:16,280 Speaker 8: Two lottery picks, the guy that I have my eye 2343 01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:18,320 Speaker 8: on as somebody that could be moved. In fact, I 2344 01:45:18,600 --> 01:45:20,720 Speaker 8: think it's he'd be closer to the top of my 2345 01:45:20,800 --> 01:45:22,880 Speaker 8: list of guys that I'd be looking to move as. 2346 01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:24,200 Speaker 10: The Pacers for that exact reason. 2347 01:45:24,280 --> 01:45:27,400 Speaker 8: Hup's already shown that he deserves more minutes than him now, 2348 01:45:27,479 --> 01:45:29,760 Speaker 8: so I think he's the third guy that I'd have 2349 01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:31,719 Speaker 8: my eye on, and he's pretty young style, so who knows. 2350 01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:32,320 Speaker 10: What his value'd be. 2351 01:45:32,920 --> 01:45:34,679 Speaker 1: Tony The other thing I want to talk about, and 2352 01:45:34,880 --> 01:45:36,600 Speaker 1: we've mentioned a little bit before, but I want to 2353 01:45:36,600 --> 01:45:38,320 Speaker 1: get into it now, especially after what we saw on 2354 01:45:38,400 --> 01:45:41,040 Speaker 1: Friday night. I know the record's out there, we all 2355 01:45:41,120 --> 01:45:43,160 Speaker 1: know the injuries and everything and how it's worked out, 2356 01:45:43,640 --> 01:45:46,160 Speaker 1: but I feel like Rick Carlisle is coaching his butt 2357 01:45:46,200 --> 01:45:48,880 Speaker 1: off this year. What's your thought on his performance? 2358 01:45:49,760 --> 01:45:52,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, you just saw an EPX Carlisle game 2359 01:45:53,040 --> 01:45:55,760 Speaker 8: with a press break for the Ages to close the 2360 01:45:55,800 --> 01:45:59,080 Speaker 8: first quarter, and they start the game with no center 2361 01:45:59,120 --> 01:46:01,559 Speaker 8: on the floor at all against the Ranning champs who 2362 01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:03,800 Speaker 8: starts at home grind and it works great. And then 2363 01:46:04,160 --> 01:46:06,120 Speaker 8: they switch their rotation to the second half of Michael 2364 01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:08,599 Speaker 8: Potter's playing a bunch because the thunder changed their rotation 2365 01:46:08,760 --> 01:46:11,559 Speaker 8: like that. You know, that's all the stuff that anyone 2366 01:46:11,680 --> 01:46:14,720 Speaker 8: can see in spot and that all worked very well 2367 01:46:14,760 --> 01:46:16,640 Speaker 8: for them against the best team in the NBA. And 2368 01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:19,439 Speaker 8: I just you know, all year his hand has been 2369 01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:22,560 Speaker 8: so horrible, like the injuries. 2370 01:46:22,120 --> 01:46:23,320 Speaker 10: Here, new player there. 2371 01:46:23,640 --> 01:46:26,040 Speaker 8: They're literally signing guys who aren't in the league to 2372 01:46:26,120 --> 01:46:28,360 Speaker 8: play that night in the rotation, Like that's how injured 2373 01:46:28,360 --> 01:46:30,719 Speaker 8: they've been. And no team's gonna have a good record 2374 01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:32,559 Speaker 8: when that's the case. So I get that they've had 2375 01:46:32,880 --> 01:46:35,519 Speaker 8: some disaster moments where the bottom just falls out once 2376 01:46:35,560 --> 01:46:38,040 Speaker 8: a game in a specific quarterer, But you know, I 2377 01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:41,160 Speaker 8: agree that with the assessment that he's done a pretty 2378 01:46:41,200 --> 01:46:43,639 Speaker 8: good job given with this season's been in terms of 2379 01:46:44,120 --> 01:46:47,800 Speaker 8: at least putting what I would consider capable lineups and 2380 01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:49,880 Speaker 8: making smart decisions to get the best groups on the 2381 01:46:49,920 --> 01:46:53,320 Speaker 8: floor and trying new things and figuring out what pairings 2382 01:46:53,400 --> 01:46:55,800 Speaker 8: might work, both for this year and for future seasons. 2383 01:46:56,280 --> 01:46:57,759 Speaker 11: You know, and I know there's a lot of stuff 2384 01:46:57,760 --> 01:46:58,120 Speaker 11: that I. 2385 01:46:58,040 --> 01:46:59,960 Speaker 8: Think fans would have hoped has happened this year that 2386 01:47:00,120 --> 01:47:03,400 Speaker 8: has not in terms of maybe young player development. 2387 01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:05,559 Speaker 10: Or especially the record. Right they're eleven and thirty five. 2388 01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:06,240 Speaker 2: That's not good. 2389 01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:08,559 Speaker 8: But given the hand they were dealt and what they've 2390 01:47:08,560 --> 01:47:10,200 Speaker 8: been trying to do, I think a lot more of 2391 01:47:10,240 --> 01:47:12,800 Speaker 8: the disappointment for me personally at least would fall on 2392 01:47:12,880 --> 01:47:15,559 Speaker 8: the players and on you know, the actual people on 2393 01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:17,560 Speaker 8: the court doing you know, what they're supposed to do 2394 01:47:17,640 --> 01:47:19,280 Speaker 8: for the Pacers to accomplish their goals. 2395 01:47:19,280 --> 01:47:22,280 Speaker 10: So I agree, I think Carlisle's done as well. 2396 01:47:22,080 --> 01:47:24,200 Speaker 8: As he possibly can in this situation like this, or 2397 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:26,840 Speaker 8: at least tried to put them in position to either 2398 01:47:26,880 --> 01:47:29,040 Speaker 8: have a better record or see more development. And now 2399 01:47:29,120 --> 01:47:33,040 Speaker 8: recently they are right, they've been at least capably winning. 2400 01:47:33,320 --> 01:47:35,599 Speaker 8: I think they've won five of nine, they've been ahead 2401 01:47:35,600 --> 01:47:38,479 Speaker 8: in the fourth quarter, and I think eight of their last. 2402 01:47:38,320 --> 01:47:40,120 Speaker 11: Eleven games which they lose a lot of those. 2403 01:47:40,120 --> 01:47:43,280 Speaker 8: That's not the greatest compliment, but you know, they're competitive 2404 01:47:43,320 --> 01:47:44,960 Speaker 8: in a lot of games now compared to where they 2405 01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:47,479 Speaker 8: were earlier in the season. That's a big stein and 2406 01:47:47,520 --> 01:47:50,400 Speaker 8: their young guys are all playing much better. Shepherd's making shots, 2407 01:47:50,640 --> 01:47:52,000 Speaker 8: Jarris Walker's doing everything. 2408 01:47:52,080 --> 01:47:53,240 Speaker 10: Johnny Furfey looks great. 2409 01:47:53,280 --> 01:47:54,880 Speaker 8: So all the stuff that they'd want this season to 2410 01:47:54,880 --> 01:47:55,920 Speaker 8: be about it is now happening. 2411 01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:59,439 Speaker 4: Well, you know what last thing I'll leave you with, 2412 01:47:59,479 --> 01:48:02,400 Speaker 4: Tony is that you know I never got to put 2413 01:48:02,439 --> 01:48:05,759 Speaker 4: out my Wemby to Indie shirts because that didn't happen. 2414 01:48:06,120 --> 01:48:09,120 Speaker 4: But I'm thinking that the bands in Indiana this year. 2415 01:48:09,880 --> 01:48:10,600 Speaker 4: Your thoughts. 2416 01:48:11,439 --> 01:48:13,880 Speaker 8: He looks awesome, that name, and he's one of those 2417 01:48:13,920 --> 01:48:16,240 Speaker 8: guys like it's almost like Ace Bailey last year, but 2418 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:18,160 Speaker 8: he looks a little better where he makes five or 2419 01:48:18,200 --> 01:48:21,160 Speaker 8: six tough shots again that you're just like so enamored by, 2420 01:48:21,280 --> 01:48:23,479 Speaker 8: Like how on earth did he put that jumper in 2421 01:48:23,560 --> 01:48:25,599 Speaker 8: the basket or some of these shots through the net, 2422 01:48:25,600 --> 01:48:26,679 Speaker 8: But Toy does. 2423 01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:27,599 Speaker 10: Man, he looks great. 2424 01:48:27,680 --> 01:48:31,240 Speaker 8: I'm saying they should just go get anybody, right, go 2425 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:35,479 Speaker 8: get Wemby.

I think. I think two 2608 01:55:53,600 --> 01:55:56,520 Speaker 4: false starts in a whole year is fine. That's reasonable. 2609 01:55:59,560 --> 01:55:59,880 Speaker 3: Everyone. 2610 01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:01,840 Speaker 4: It can't be like Kevin and be on time every day. 2611 01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:03,600 Speaker 4: Come on now, I'm a helmet. 2612 01:56:04,560 --> 01:56:07,320 Speaker 1: Uh well, big big time to all three of you 2613 01:56:07,440 --> 01:56:09,560 Speaker 1: for making it work and we're happy to be coming 2614 01:56:09,600 --> 01:56:12,320 Speaker 1: to you this morning and doesn't look as bad as 2615 01:56:12,320 --> 01:56:13,920 Speaker 1: maybe we thought it might be. I remember there was 2616 01:56:13,960 --> 01:56:14,880 Speaker 1: a storm. 2617 01:56:15,440 --> 01:56:16,080 Speaker 2: Gosh, I don't know. 2618 01:56:16,080 --> 01:56:18,720 Speaker 1: Two seven, twenty eighteen. Kevin felt like it dropped a 2619 01:56:18,880 --> 01:56:21,840 Speaker 1: lot more snow in a short period of time. 2620 01:56:22,720 --> 01:56:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought I saw Sean ash mentioned yesterday the meteor. 2621 01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:30,240 Speaker 2: I'll just of course here in town most snow in 2622 01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:32,440 Speaker 2: a I guess you call it a single snowstorm. Since 2623 01:56:32,480 --> 01:56:36,640 Speaker 2: twenty fourteen, eleven maybeh Inches was the official at the 2624 01:56:36,680 --> 01:56:39,400 Speaker 2: airport count there. Again, We'll continue keep you outdated, but 2625 01:56:39,440 --> 01:56:41,480 Speaker 2: you know, as of right now, I mean, you know, 2626 01:56:41,680 --> 01:56:44,120 Speaker 2: city tournaments moved tomorrow seven forty five. I you Purdue 2627 01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:46,240 Speaker 2: schedule for nine o'clock tomorrow in Bloomington, you know, the 2628 01:56:46,320 --> 01:56:47,680 Speaker 2: southern part of the state. I think it's the area 2629 01:56:47,760 --> 01:56:49,800 Speaker 2: more to watch. It's kind of weird that we had, 2630 01:56:50,280 --> 01:56:53,520 Speaker 2: you know, Purdue host a men's and women's game Saturday 2631 01:56:53,560 --> 01:56:56,640 Speaker 2: and Sunday, no issues. Notre Dame hosted a men's and 2632 01:56:56,640 --> 01:57:00,200 Speaker 2: women's basketball game Saturday and Sunday, no issues. It was 2633 01:57:00,200 --> 01:57:02,640 Speaker 2: the southern part. It's got dre that's AWU Indy. They 2634 01:57:02,640 --> 01:57:04,840 Speaker 2: had to postpone their game with Perdue Fort Wayne, their 2635 01:57:04,840 --> 01:57:07,960 Speaker 2: men's game yesterday. So we'll continue to keep you updated, 2636 01:57:07,960 --> 01:57:11,200 Speaker 2: but right now, knock on wood. Just bundle up. It'll 2637 01:57:11,200 --> 01:57:12,920 Speaker 2: be cold, but I think we're good to go here 2638 01:57:12,960 --> 01:57:13,400 Speaker 2: moving forward. 2639 01:57:13,400 --> 01:57:15,480 Speaker 1: All right, Mark, Let's do a quick checkdown and then 2640 01:57:15,680 --> 01:57:18,760 Speaker 1: we'll get back to talking about some football. 2641 01:57:18,800 --> 01:57:22,480 Speaker 6: The Boy Checkout brought to you by the Barbasol Horizon 2642 01:57:22,560 --> 01:57:27,760 Speaker 6: League Basketball Championships, Marsh Stars Year, the Barbisol Horizon League 2643 01:57:27,760 --> 01:57:33,160 Speaker 6: Basketball Championships l March eighth through Chens, tickets and more 2644 01:57:33,200 --> 01:57:34,640 Speaker 6: at Horisonleague dot com. 2645 01:57:34,680 --> 01:57:36,520 Speaker 2: Slash in indeed got. 2646 01:57:36,440 --> 01:57:38,720 Speaker 1: A ways to go before we get to postseason basketball, 2647 01:57:38,720 --> 01:57:41,400 Speaker 1: but certainly we have arrived at the Super Bowl in 2648 01:57:41,440 --> 01:57:43,800 Speaker 1: the National Football League. Seattle take it on New England 2649 01:57:43,800 --> 01:57:46,680 Speaker 1: for Super Bowl sixty. That'll be in Santa Clara week 2650 01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:50,280 Speaker 1: after Sunday. Uh Patriots beat the Broncos ten to seven 2651 01:57:50,280 --> 01:57:54,160 Speaker 1: in the AFC Championship Game. Second half played completely in 2652 01:57:54,240 --> 01:57:57,200 Speaker 1: the snow. Kevin Bowen and I thought Ramond Ray Stevenson 2653 01:57:57,240 --> 01:57:59,640 Speaker 1: and his ability to just keep kind of moving the 2654 01:57:59,720 --> 01:58:03,040 Speaker 1: chain and also the legs of Drake may probably made 2655 01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:05,400 Speaker 1: the difference for the New England Patriots, along with some 2656 01:58:05,440 --> 01:58:06,960 Speaker 1: big plays yesterday. 2657 01:58:06,640 --> 01:58:08,880 Speaker 2: Well, it Dednver totally mismanaged the first half. You know, 2658 01:58:08,920 --> 01:58:12,000 Speaker 2: I think you have to honestly as nerdy as it sounds. 2659 01:58:12,040 --> 01:58:14,920 Speaker 2: Have somebody from a meteorology standpoint, you know, realize, hey, 2660 01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:16,720 Speaker 2: it's gonna snow a whole lot in the second half. 2661 01:58:16,800 --> 01:58:19,760 Speaker 2: Points points points Let's get, you know, as many as possible. 2662 01:58:19,760 --> 01:58:21,680 Speaker 2: If you have a two score lead with a backup 2663 01:58:21,760 --> 01:58:26,160 Speaker 2: quarterback and that defense, that could have been enough. You know. Again, 2664 01:58:26,200 --> 01:58:29,200 Speaker 2: Stidham obviously made the horrific mistake there to get New 2665 01:58:29,200 --> 01:58:33,080 Speaker 2: England into that lone touchdown that they scored there. So yeah, 2666 01:58:33,160 --> 01:58:36,040 Speaker 2: Denver fans, I think it'll be an offseason of what afs. Obviously, 2667 01:58:36,040 --> 01:58:39,360 Speaker 2: the Bonnicks injury was huge, but still they had an 2668 01:58:39,360 --> 01:58:40,680 Speaker 2: opportunity yesterday to win. 2669 01:58:40,520 --> 01:58:42,880 Speaker 1: That Roughs almost messed that up because it should have 2670 01:58:42,920 --> 01:58:46,800 Speaker 1: been a touchdown on the play, but instead the Patriots 2671 01:58:46,800 --> 01:58:49,240 Speaker 1: were awarded the ball I think inside the Denver fifteen, 2672 01:58:49,280 --> 01:58:51,160 Speaker 1: and the scored a couple of plays later, but anyway, 2673 01:58:51,320 --> 01:58:54,320 Speaker 1: ten seven Patriots advanced. They'll take on the Seattle Seahawks. 2674 01:58:54,320 --> 01:58:56,600 Speaker 1: Seahawks beat the Rams by the score of thirty one 2675 01:58:56,720 --> 01:58:57,360 Speaker 1: twenty seven. 2676 01:58:57,560 --> 01:58:58,960 Speaker 2: That was a fun game to watch. 2677 01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:01,839 Speaker 4: James Boyd, Yes, I enjoyed it. I thought the football 2678 01:59:01,840 --> 01:59:03,640 Speaker 4: has been very good so far. Throughout the playoffs. 2679 01:59:03,760 --> 01:59:05,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, Sam Donald three hundred and forty six yards and 2680 01:59:05,920 --> 01:59:08,320 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. I'd just like to point out that both 2681 01:59:08,400 --> 01:59:13,000 Speaker 1: Drake May and Sam Darnold have more playoff wins than 2682 01:59:13,000 --> 01:59:14,480 Speaker 1: the Colts have since their. 2683 01:59:14,400 --> 01:59:15,320 Speaker 2: Last playoff win. 2684 01:59:15,960 --> 01:59:18,400 Speaker 4: It's been a while, oh boy, when you put it 2685 01:59:18,480 --> 01:59:20,600 Speaker 4: like that, jump in the snow. 2686 01:59:20,920 --> 01:59:22,520 Speaker 2: Been a while, all right. 2687 01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:25,760 Speaker 1: So that's the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers coming 2688 01:59:25,760 --> 01:59:28,440 Speaker 1: off a couple of week a couple of days where 2689 01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:30,040 Speaker 1: they didn't have to play, but a surprise win over 2690 01:59:30,080 --> 01:59:33,560 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City, won seventeen one to fourteen. More importantly, today's 2691 01:59:33,600 --> 01:59:35,720 Speaker 1: game has been moved up from this evening to this 2692 01:59:35,840 --> 01:59:38,600 Speaker 1: afternoon in Atlanta. They will play the Hawks beginning at 2693 01:59:38,600 --> 01:59:41,440 Speaker 1: one thirty airtime one o'clock here at ninety three five 2694 01:59:41,760 --> 01:59:43,920 Speaker 1: one oh seven five the Fan JMV will be on 2695 01:59:44,120 --> 01:59:47,840 Speaker 1: after Eddie White's postgame show here on the fan. And 2696 01:59:47,880 --> 01:59:50,560 Speaker 1: we're getting ready for college basketball tomorrow night. Kevin down 2697 01:59:50,600 --> 01:59:53,920 Speaker 1: at the Assembly Hall, Purdue in Indiana. 2698 01:59:53,760 --> 01:59:57,360 Speaker 2: John Fanta, the high energy of him and Robbie Hummel 2699 01:59:57,440 --> 02:00:00,200 Speaker 2: per usual on the call tomorrow, say at nine o'clock. 2700 02:00:00,480 --> 02:00:02,080 Speaker 2: You know, I always kind of think of one of 2701 02:00:02,120 --> 02:00:04,520 Speaker 2: the oddities will look back on the Mike Woods and Eras. 2702 02:00:05,040 --> 02:00:07,360 Speaker 2: I think he's split with Matt Painter in those meetings. 2703 02:00:07,360 --> 02:00:09,800 Speaker 2: So huge one for Indiana and obviously big for Purdue 2704 02:00:09,840 --> 02:00:10,160 Speaker 2: as well. 2705 02:00:10,240 --> 02:00:14,080 Speaker 1: And the Prdue women gotta win over Indiana basketball. They're 2706 02:00:14,120 --> 02:00:16,520 Speaker 1: starting the upswing. And man, it has been a tough 2707 02:00:16,720 --> 02:00:20,200 Speaker 1: season Kevin, for the women's basketball team at Indiana. They 2708 02:00:20,200 --> 02:00:22,960 Speaker 1: have yet to win a Big Ten conference basketball game. 2709 02:00:23,920 --> 02:00:25,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, really bad. 2710 02:00:25,120 --> 02:00:27,760 Speaker 4: Oh, I got all these rules now bring back grays Burger, 2711 02:00:27,880 --> 02:00:29,720 Speaker 4: mckizie Holmes nine. 2712 02:00:29,800 --> 02:00:32,480 Speaker 2: So yeah, not a good year for Terry Morning Company. 2713 02:00:32,840 --> 02:00:35,760 Speaker 1: City Tournament in high school basketball comes your way tomorrow night. 2714 02:00:35,920 --> 02:00:39,720 Speaker 1: Not tonight at Tech. It'll be Cathedral, Kevin Bowen. They 2715 02:00:39,760 --> 02:00:42,640 Speaker 1: always seem to be around the City championship game. They'll 2716 02:00:42,680 --> 02:00:44,160 Speaker 1: be taking on Cescina this time. 2717 02:00:44,360 --> 02:00:46,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounded like Ritter, you know, really hung in 2718 02:00:46,520 --> 02:00:49,959 Speaker 2: there with Cathedra for quite a while on Saturday afternoon 2719 02:00:49,960 --> 02:00:52,160 Speaker 2: there so Christmas addicts dealing with some injuries. I was 2720 02:00:52,200 --> 02:00:56,120 Speaker 2: the other semi final Sacina, a rare appearance for them 2721 02:00:56,560 --> 02:00:58,880 Speaker 2: in the championships. Yeah, seven forty five tomorrow night. So 2722 02:00:59,040 --> 02:01:00,760 Speaker 2: if you want to go check got the City tournament 2723 02:01:00,800 --> 02:01:02,320 Speaker 2: and get home in time for any other Purdue. I 2724 02:01:02,360 --> 02:01:04,320 Speaker 2: think you could be able to do both of those. 2725 02:01:04,320 --> 02:01:05,880 Speaker 1: All right, to anything else, So the one of you 2726 02:01:05,880 --> 02:01:07,640 Speaker 1: guys would like to throw in before we had to 2727 02:01:07,640 --> 02:01:08,800 Speaker 1: break good Probce. 2728 02:01:08,880 --> 02:01:11,840 Speaker 2: You mentioned the Philip Rivers news, Dane Russini James, your 2729 02:01:11,840 --> 02:01:16,720 Speaker 2: colleague had Philip Rivers withdrawing. I'll use that term withdrawing. 2730 02:01:16,840 --> 02:01:21,520 Speaker 2: You use the real comment the Buffalo coaching search job. 2731 02:01:23,520 --> 02:01:26,320 Speaker 1: You just love to get people in trouble, don't you so? 2732 02:01:26,400 --> 02:01:28,240 Speaker 2: Jeff, do you think offense there? You don't think Louis 2733 02:01:28,280 --> 02:01:30,920 Speaker 2: n Romo's got a shot? I have no idea what 2734 02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:32,200 Speaker 2: Pagulas are thinking up. 2735 02:01:32,160 --> 02:01:36,000 Speaker 1: There, but I would think when you see that Josh 2736 02:01:36,040 --> 02:01:38,640 Speaker 1: Allen is going to have a say in whoever the 2737 02:01:38,640 --> 02:01:41,360 Speaker 1: next head coaches. Doesn't that tend to make you think offense? 2738 02:01:41,480 --> 02:01:42,760 Speaker 2: Isn't there issue? More defense? 2739 02:01:43,960 --> 02:01:45,840 Speaker 4: I see what both of you guys are saying. But 2740 02:01:45,880 --> 02:01:48,200 Speaker 4: to Just's point, yeah, when you got the franchise quarterback 2741 02:01:48,240 --> 02:01:49,800 Speaker 4: sitting in on interviews. 2742 02:01:49,560 --> 02:01:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Josh Allen isn't an idiot. He knows their 2743 02:01:51,480 --> 02:01:52,960 Speaker 2: defense is the issue. 2744 02:01:53,120 --> 02:01:55,760 Speaker 1: And be interesting to see because to your point, last 2745 02:01:55,800 --> 02:01:58,400 Speaker 1: week we seem to see flip flops. So you get 2746 02:01:58,440 --> 02:02:00,360 Speaker 1: an offensive coach that doesn't do all that well, you 2747 02:02:00,400 --> 02:02:02,360 Speaker 1: go get a defensive coach. You get a defensive coach 2748 02:02:02,400 --> 02:02:03,760 Speaker 1: doesn't do all that well, you go. 2749 02:02:03,640 --> 02:02:04,680 Speaker 2: Get an offensive coach. 2750 02:02:04,680 --> 02:02:06,680 Speaker 1: And now you got the quarterback who will be involved 2751 02:02:06,840 --> 02:02:08,240 Speaker 1: in the decision making. I think it's going to be 2752 02:02:08,240 --> 02:02:10,000 Speaker 1: one of the more fascinating things to watch. 2753 02:02:10,280 --> 02:02:14,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then Pittsburgh went with the route that they did, 2754 02:02:14,160 --> 02:02:17,200 Speaker 2: So we'll stay openings here as we now have approached 2755 02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:20,360 Speaker 2: what Senior Bowl, Pro Bowl, Super Bowl Week? 2756 02:02:20,600 --> 02:02:23,560 Speaker 1: All right, more in a moment on the National Football 2757 02:02:23,640 --> 02:02:25,760 Speaker 1: League as we continue, It's ninety three five and one 2758 02:02:25,760 --> 02:02:29,920 Speaker 1: O seven five Fan Something about a Queen's Own is 2759 02:02:29,920 --> 02:02:32,080 Speaker 1: about the good morning everyone, Welcome into the Fan Morning 2760 02:02:32,160 --> 02:02:35,960 Speaker 1: Show as we get everybody on their way to work today. 2761 02:02:35,960 --> 02:02:38,160 Speaker 1: And I think this is a terrific idea. We talked 2762 02:02:38,160 --> 02:02:40,840 Speaker 1: about it a minute ago, but the city hiring a 2763 02:02:40,840 --> 02:02:43,880 Speaker 1: lot of private contractors to do the secondary streets, the 2764 02:02:43,920 --> 02:02:46,680 Speaker 1: in the side streets, and just based on what we 2765 02:02:46,680 --> 02:02:48,640 Speaker 1: can see out of our window for the couple of 2766 02:02:48,640 --> 02:02:51,400 Speaker 1: blocks that we can see, looks like there's look, there's snow. 2767 02:02:51,440 --> 02:02:54,520 Speaker 1: There's still a light light layer of snow. But for 2768 02:02:54,560 --> 02:02:56,400 Speaker 1: the most part, it looks like they've plowed everything up 2769 02:02:56,400 --> 02:02:56,920 Speaker 1: around here. 2770 02:02:57,080 --> 02:02:59,520 Speaker 5: Saw a guy on a John Deere lawnmower plowing our 2771 02:02:59,680 --> 02:03:01,960 Speaker 5: side street here? Is he a private contractor? 2772 02:03:02,600 --> 02:03:04,720 Speaker 1: Possib believe that Al is al over here? 2773 02:03:05,520 --> 02:03:09,760 Speaker 2: Querry, Yeah, Jake Query. Maybe maybe Jake's doing. 2774 02:03:09,280 --> 02:03:11,720 Speaker 4: But I will say the roads look better than they 2775 02:03:11,760 --> 02:03:12,880 Speaker 4: were just a few hours ago. 2776 02:03:13,040 --> 02:03:16,720 Speaker 5: Considering I've seen Jake in a blanket at Colt's camp, 2777 02:03:16,760 --> 02:03:18,879 Speaker 5: I can't imagine he's out here just plowing streets. 2778 02:03:18,960 --> 02:03:19,080 Speaker 2: Now. 2779 02:03:19,080 --> 02:03:21,240 Speaker 1: I can always assume that there's somebody listening to us 2780 02:03:21,320 --> 02:03:22,520 Speaker 1: right now that's stuck. 2781 02:03:22,240 --> 02:03:24,360 Speaker 2: On the side street going what are you guys talking about? 2782 02:03:24,480 --> 02:03:24,720 Speaker 1: Hey? 2783 02:03:24,840 --> 02:03:28,160 Speaker 4: Well, you know, travel safe, my friends. I will say, 2784 02:03:28,320 --> 02:03:31,680 Speaker 4: if I bring my snuggie out for the last rendition 2785 02:03:31,920 --> 02:03:39,640 Speaker 4: of the Westfield training camp, Kevin, will you shame me. 2786 02:03:40,480 --> 02:03:43,200 Speaker 2: Sixty degrees? Reason? 2787 02:03:43,200 --> 02:03:43,520 Speaker 4: It was? 2788 02:03:43,600 --> 02:03:45,600 Speaker 2: It was like a It was a light breeze and 2789 02:03:46,520 --> 02:03:47,280 Speaker 2: snuggy on us. 2790 02:03:47,880 --> 02:03:50,200 Speaker 4: That's a little chilly man, Hey, Jake, I'm witsh your brother? 2791 02:03:50,320 --> 02:03:53,080 Speaker 2: Is that the same day you picked up dog poop 2792 02:03:53,280 --> 02:03:56,480 Speaker 2: out there? Animal dung as I believe how I referred 2793 02:03:56,520 --> 02:03:57,920 Speaker 2: to it as I don't know if that was the 2794 02:03:57,920 --> 02:03:58,280 Speaker 2: same day. 2795 02:03:58,320 --> 02:04:00,080 Speaker 4: I never heard this story. What what? 2796 02:04:00,360 --> 02:04:03,720 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I thought it was grass clippings, grass clippings, 2797 02:04:03,960 --> 02:04:05,240 Speaker 5: And why did you pick it up? 2798 02:04:06,640 --> 02:04:07,880 Speaker 2: Just to make sure the field is clear? I mean, 2799 02:04:07,920 --> 02:04:09,760 Speaker 2: the Colts have enough injuries. I don't want Abate tripping 2800 02:04:09,760 --> 02:04:10,040 Speaker 2: over that. 2801 02:04:10,200 --> 02:04:14,120 Speaker 1: Oh boy, the Kevin's got you got your side jobs. 2802 02:04:14,160 --> 02:04:15,240 Speaker 1: Kevin's got his side jobs. 2803 02:04:15,360 --> 02:04:18,160 Speaker 4: You've got some side hustles for real. Maybe, I mean, 2804 02:04:18,400 --> 02:04:20,360 Speaker 4: if Tom's is that bad, we could, you know what, 2805 02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:22,960 Speaker 4: We got to get it together, boss man. We got 2806 02:04:22,960 --> 02:04:25,360 Speaker 4: to talk some job with al Al my boy picking 2807 02:04:25,400 --> 02:04:26,440 Speaker 4: up you know, poop. 2808 02:04:28,040 --> 02:04:32,000 Speaker 1: Got a text from somebody signed disgruddled in the snow. 2809 02:04:33,120 --> 02:04:35,360 Speaker 1: I feel like every football game that's been played since 2810 02:04:35,400 --> 02:04:39,040 Speaker 1: the culture eliminated is another indictment on the current general manager. 2811 02:04:39,360 --> 02:04:41,760 Speaker 1: Quarterbacks that were passed on either in the draft or 2812 02:04:41,800 --> 02:04:44,360 Speaker 1: free agency, the head coach hires that have been made 2813 02:04:44,360 --> 02:04:47,160 Speaker 1: either during or the same cycle or afterwards as our 2814 02:04:47,160 --> 02:04:51,040 Speaker 1: current coach seems like damning evidence. I hope and I improven. 2815 02:04:51,400 --> 02:04:53,720 Speaker 1: I hope that I improven to be wrong, but expecting 2816 02:04:53,760 --> 02:04:56,480 Speaker 1: nothing more than more of the same or actually worse 2817 02:04:56,600 --> 02:04:59,520 Speaker 1: next year feels like the roster is a mess. 2818 02:05:00,400 --> 02:05:05,400 Speaker 2: Any thoughts, Yeah, I mean, I try not to be 2819 02:05:05,600 --> 02:05:07,840 Speaker 2: numb to the situation, but I don't know. If I'm 2820 02:05:07,880 --> 02:05:13,560 Speaker 2: watching these games thinking that I I'd probably already have 2821 02:05:13,680 --> 02:05:16,000 Speaker 2: enough on my mind that has led me to think 2822 02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:18,320 Speaker 2: that Chris Bauer doesn't deserve a tenth crack at building 2823 02:05:18,360 --> 02:05:21,400 Speaker 2: this roster. So I guess I don't, you know, disagree 2824 02:05:21,400 --> 02:05:23,680 Speaker 2: with it. I don't know, Drake May It's not like 2825 02:05:23,720 --> 02:05:27,160 Speaker 2: you passed on him per se. But yeah, I think 2826 02:05:27,160 --> 02:05:30,720 Speaker 2: there's plenty of evidence and reasons before the playoffs kicked 2827 02:05:30,720 --> 02:05:33,280 Speaker 2: off three weeks ago to be fed up and disappointed. 2828 02:05:33,320 --> 02:05:36,400 Speaker 2: And however he else disgruntled fan in the snow wants 2829 02:05:36,440 --> 02:05:37,000 Speaker 2: to label it. 2830 02:05:38,640 --> 02:05:42,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I watched the two quarterbacks last night 2831 02:05:42,480 --> 02:05:44,800 Speaker 1: and Sam Darnold, we've talked about it a lot all morning. 2832 02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:47,920 Speaker 1: You've heard it on the national shows too. You know, 2833 02:05:47,960 --> 02:05:50,680 Speaker 1: the last two seasons that he has played, not only 2834 02:05:50,720 --> 02:05:53,200 Speaker 1: has he won more games than any other quarterback over 2835 02:05:53,200 --> 02:05:56,080 Speaker 1: the last two seasons, but when he was with Minnesota, 2836 02:05:56,960 --> 02:06:00,000 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson was considered the best receiver in the league. 2837 02:06:00,720 --> 02:06:03,600 Speaker 1: Who's been better than Jackson Smith and in Big this 2838 02:06:03,720 --> 02:06:04,960 Speaker 1: year in jigbub thank you. 2839 02:06:05,840 --> 02:06:08,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, I think the real great if you want 2840 02:06:08,120 --> 02:06:09,840 Speaker 2: to continue to go down this path, the real gripe. 2841 02:06:09,840 --> 02:06:11,560 Speaker 2: But these two teams playing in the super Bowl would 2842 02:06:11,560 --> 02:06:17,040 Speaker 2: be what they've done defensively, Like that's Ballard's ballance and 2843 02:06:17,080 --> 02:06:20,000 Speaker 2: that's a nine year baby, you know for quarterback. What 2844 02:06:20,120 --> 02:06:24,400 Speaker 2: he decided was more like opting for the band aids 2845 02:06:24,440 --> 02:06:26,360 Speaker 2: and and you know, I guess you could call Donald 2846 02:06:26,360 --> 02:06:29,640 Speaker 2: that certainly. Obviously Drake May was what third overall pick, 2847 02:06:29,720 --> 02:06:32,040 Speaker 2: Like I don't think Drake May falls into this boat necessarily, 2848 02:06:32,200 --> 02:06:34,200 Speaker 2: Like the Colts screwed that up, Like I mean, the 2849 02:06:34,200 --> 02:06:35,960 Speaker 2: Colts missed on their own top five pick, but it's 2850 02:06:35,960 --> 02:06:37,960 Speaker 2: not like they passed on Drake May. You could say 2851 02:06:37,960 --> 02:06:40,360 Speaker 2: that they weren't whatever. Yeah, it's only the second year 2852 02:06:40,400 --> 02:06:42,560 Speaker 2: as big of a pursuit of Sam Darnold and maybe 2853 02:06:42,560 --> 02:06:44,000 Speaker 2: should have been there. But I think a lot of 2854 02:06:44,000 --> 02:06:45,840 Speaker 2: that is time in sight twenty twenty, to be honest 2855 02:06:45,880 --> 02:06:49,200 Speaker 2: with you. But defensively, I think is a very real gripe. 2856 02:06:49,720 --> 02:06:52,120 Speaker 2: You look at both of these units, particularly in New England, 2857 02:06:52,120 --> 02:06:54,560 Speaker 2: I don't think New England is the most highly invested 2858 02:06:54,640 --> 02:06:57,960 Speaker 2: defense by any means. And you know, obviously it's the 2859 02:06:57,960 --> 02:06:59,840 Speaker 2: first year head coach John the Mike McDonald's been and 2860 02:06:59,840 --> 02:07:02,560 Speaker 2: see for that much longer there, And not to act 2861 02:07:02,600 --> 02:07:06,040 Speaker 2: like Seattle's defense has crazy investment all over it either, 2862 02:07:06,080 --> 02:07:08,880 Speaker 2: but that to me would be the one that given 2863 02:07:08,880 --> 02:07:11,600 Speaker 2: how much Ballard has cared and has wanted to overhaul 2864 02:07:11,640 --> 02:07:13,560 Speaker 2: his own defense. And now what are we talking about 2865 02:07:14,120 --> 02:07:15,880 Speaker 2: with Joel ericson you know, an hour and a half 2866 02:07:15,880 --> 02:07:20,680 Speaker 2: ago defense. It's it's kind of like, you know, Ballard's 2867 02:07:20,680 --> 02:07:22,960 Speaker 2: you know, Mark's oldest that has spilled their milk, and 2868 02:07:23,000 --> 02:07:25,840 Speaker 2: Mark saying no, you clean it up. That's what the 2869 02:07:25,840 --> 02:07:28,000 Speaker 2: Gults have done. You know, some organizations say no, someone 2870 02:07:28,040 --> 02:07:30,520 Speaker 2: else will clean it up. Mike Rabel will clean up 2871 02:07:30,760 --> 02:07:33,680 Speaker 2: whatever Belichick's lingering, you know issues there at the end, 2872 02:07:33,840 --> 02:07:37,960 Speaker 2: or you know, Mike McDonald, you know whatever, clean up 2873 02:07:38,000 --> 02:07:41,200 Speaker 2: the Pete Carroll era ending here. Whereas Curliers Gordon has 2874 02:07:41,200 --> 02:07:43,200 Speaker 2: said no, no, no, Chris Ballard, I'm going to give 2875 02:07:43,200 --> 02:07:44,600 Speaker 2: you another chance to clean up your own mess. 2876 02:07:44,680 --> 02:07:48,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and certainly the edge is always going to be 2877 02:07:48,880 --> 02:07:52,600 Speaker 1: a discussion point here. But I do say this last 2878 02:07:52,760 --> 02:07:55,720 Speaker 1: off season he went and got two big name free 2879 02:07:55,720 --> 02:07:58,440 Speaker 1: agent corners, at a corner in a safety, and then 2880 02:07:58,480 --> 02:08:00,839 Speaker 1: he got another one in the middle of the season 2881 02:08:01,040 --> 02:08:03,680 Speaker 1: when he picked up Sauce Gardner. The attempt just to 2882 02:08:03,720 --> 02:08:05,720 Speaker 1: be fair for the discussion, because I'm right with you guys, 2883 02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:07,680 Speaker 1: and I'm right with the texter there. But to be 2884 02:08:07,680 --> 02:08:10,560 Speaker 1: fair to the discussion, he spent a lot of capital 2885 02:08:10,600 --> 02:08:12,640 Speaker 1: and money to try and get that defense better to 2886 02:08:12,680 --> 02:08:14,560 Speaker 1: the extent that he could this past year. 2887 02:08:14,680 --> 02:08:18,320 Speaker 2: Can we agree on that? Is that fair? I'm just 2888 02:08:18,360 --> 02:08:20,000 Speaker 2: trying to be fair here. I see it defense that's 2889 02:08:20,080 --> 02:08:23,880 Speaker 2: ranked routinely in the bottom whatever the NFL and points allowed. So, yeah, 2890 02:08:24,200 --> 02:08:25,720 Speaker 2: he took a I guess my point is he took 2891 02:08:25,720 --> 02:08:29,080 Speaker 2: a swing. Well sure, but yeah, walk me through the 2892 02:08:29,080 --> 02:08:31,600 Speaker 2: first eight years of building this defense. Can you read 2893 02:08:31,600 --> 02:08:33,160 Speaker 2: off all those moves? Can you read off all those 2894 02:08:33,200 --> 02:08:35,280 Speaker 2: draft picks? Do we want to go through the defensive 2895 02:08:35,320 --> 02:08:36,880 Speaker 2: draft picks at defensive end and corner? 2896 02:08:37,080 --> 02:08:39,880 Speaker 1: And again, I'm not defending, I'm just making the conversation, 2897 02:08:40,000 --> 02:08:41,280 Speaker 1: trying to be both sides here. 2898 02:08:42,240 --> 02:08:45,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I see what you're saying. But to an extent, 2899 02:08:46,240 --> 02:08:48,120 Speaker 4: I think it's also one of those things where you 2900 02:08:48,120 --> 02:08:51,160 Speaker 4: could say, well, he changed his ways, he did a 2901 02:08:51,200 --> 02:08:54,600 Speaker 4: lot of different things to bolster the secondary, but when 2902 02:08:54,600 --> 02:08:57,240 Speaker 4: we look at the pass rush and that defensive line, 2903 02:08:57,640 --> 02:09:02,080 Speaker 4: Kevin's laid it out profusely these last few weeks. They've 2904 02:09:02,120 --> 02:09:06,640 Speaker 4: invested a jhun into the defensive line, and right now, 2905 02:09:07,160 --> 02:09:09,640 Speaker 4: the only player that you can confidently say has a 2906 02:09:10,240 --> 02:09:14,240 Speaker 4: long term future here in Indianapolis is Lauti Latu. The 2907 02:09:14,360 --> 02:09:16,200 Speaker 4: rest of them and I'm not saying the Forest Buckner 2908 02:09:16,200 --> 02:09:17,800 Speaker 4: isn't a good player or Grover Stewart, but I don't 2909 02:09:17,800 --> 02:09:20,360 Speaker 4: know if those are long term pieces anymore. Those guys 2910 02:09:20,360 --> 02:09:24,040 Speaker 4: are over thirty. So when I look at that, it 2911 02:09:24,080 --> 02:09:26,240 Speaker 4: does give me a little hesitation to think, Okay, what 2912 02:09:26,360 --> 02:09:28,440 Speaker 4: can you actually do to get this group better when 2913 02:09:28,520 --> 02:09:30,880 Speaker 4: you've tried so many different ways in the past. 2914 02:09:31,040 --> 02:09:34,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one to two pieces of positive evidence versus 2915 02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:36,959 Speaker 2: nine or ten of negative exactly. 2916 02:09:37,200 --> 02:09:41,720 Speaker 4: And also assuming that they will draft another edge rusher, 2917 02:09:41,720 --> 02:09:45,320 Speaker 4: because I mean, I would think you have to given 2918 02:09:45,600 --> 02:09:48,720 Speaker 4: your limitations there, watch anyone believe that they're going to 2919 02:09:48,800 --> 02:09:52,080 Speaker 4: develop here. I mean, you drafted a guy last year 2920 02:09:52,160 --> 02:09:58,200 Speaker 4: JT Twey Moloow who could not see the field. So yeah, 2921 02:09:58,360 --> 02:09:59,760 Speaker 4: it's tough sledding right now for that. 2922 02:10:00,600 --> 02:10:01,240 Speaker 2: Do we think that. 2923 02:10:01,200 --> 02:10:03,520 Speaker 1: Law too took a big step forward this year second 2924 02:10:03,520 --> 02:10:04,200 Speaker 1: half of the season. 2925 02:10:05,240 --> 02:10:07,080 Speaker 4: I think he took a step forward. I don't think 2926 02:10:07,080 --> 02:10:08,960 Speaker 4: it was that big, But I also think that I 2927 02:10:09,040 --> 02:10:11,240 Speaker 4: think he's been a fine player so far, a pretty 2928 02:10:11,240 --> 02:10:14,520 Speaker 4: good player. But to be the first defensive player drafted 2929 02:10:15,480 --> 02:10:17,920 Speaker 4: in his class, he needs to be a dominant player. 2930 02:10:17,960 --> 02:10:18,040 Speaker 8: Now. 2931 02:10:18,040 --> 02:10:20,080 Speaker 4: Will that coming year three? We'll see, might take a 2932 02:10:20,120 --> 02:10:22,920 Speaker 4: little while, but I do think there's lileting more from him. 2933 02:10:22,960 --> 02:10:24,600 Speaker 4: I know people going and bring up to three interceptions, 2934 02:10:24,600 --> 02:10:26,720 Speaker 4: but that to me is more anomaly than something you 2935 02:10:26,720 --> 02:10:28,600 Speaker 4: can bank on, like he might not have an interception 2936 02:10:28,640 --> 02:10:29,320 Speaker 4: with the rest of his career. 2937 02:10:29,400 --> 02:10:31,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the other thing I point out with those interceptions, 2938 02:10:31,440 --> 02:10:33,120 Speaker 1: like the one where he just tipped the ball to 2939 02:10:33,200 --> 02:10:36,080 Speaker 1: himself and left that that incredibly athletic player. 2940 02:10:36,120 --> 02:10:37,680 Speaker 4: Oh that was a great play. I don't want to 2941 02:10:37,720 --> 02:10:40,120 Speaker 4: discredit that. But at the same time, yeah, give me. 2942 02:10:40,520 --> 02:10:42,920 Speaker 4: I want my defensive ends to get sacks. I will 2943 02:10:42,960 --> 02:10:43,960 Speaker 4: let the other guys get picks. 2944 02:10:44,160 --> 02:10:47,440 Speaker 1: I guess my point on that is you see his 2945 02:10:47,480 --> 02:10:51,520 Speaker 1: athleticism sometimes and you think, how does that not translate 2946 02:10:51,560 --> 02:10:52,600 Speaker 1: into more pressure. 2947 02:10:52,800 --> 02:10:55,000 Speaker 4: I just don't think he's strong enough to be honest 2948 02:10:55,040 --> 02:10:57,160 Speaker 4: with you. But hey, we'll see. 2949 02:10:57,080 --> 02:10:59,880 Speaker 1: All right coming up in a moment, we'll get our first blush. 2950 02:11:00,080 --> 02:11:03,080 Speaker 1: Look at all the odds for the super Bowl that's 2951 02:11:03,120 --> 02:11:05,720 Speaker 1: coming up in just less than two weeks Seattle and 2952 02:11:05,800 --> 02:11:06,280 Speaker 1: New England. 2953 02:11:06,480 --> 02:11:07,480 Speaker 2: We'll talk about it next. 2954 02:11:07,720 --> 02:11:09,960 Speaker 1: Should return the camera landing. Kevin is going to go 2955 02:11:10,000 --> 02:11:10,480 Speaker 1: examine it. 2956 02:11:10,560 --> 02:11:12,160 Speaker 2: Here's a nice piece of Kevin. 2957 02:11:12,200 --> 02:11:13,800 Speaker 1: Do not touched that is? 2958 02:11:13,840 --> 02:11:16,440 Speaker 2: And now that I look closer, you might be right there. 2959 02:11:16,560 --> 02:11:17,440 Speaker 1: I have a trash bag. 2960 02:11:17,440 --> 02:11:18,200 Speaker 3: Do you want to pick it up? 2961 02:11:18,520 --> 02:11:21,000 Speaker 2: Somebody did not curb their animals, That is the bottom line. 2962 02:11:21,040 --> 02:11:24,840 Speaker 5: Somebody please screenshot Kevin looking at poop on that YouTube chat. 2963 02:11:24,880 --> 02:11:28,280 Speaker 2: Please that element that's a turk? Does that animal have 2964 02:11:28,320 --> 02:11:31,720 Speaker 2: a credential to get here? Is some exclusive acts. 2965 02:11:33,360 --> 02:11:37,480 Speaker 1: Wind up a Monday morning, getting big ups to everybody 2966 02:11:37,480 --> 02:11:39,840 Speaker 1: for getting up early. Whoever had to go to work 2967 02:11:39,880 --> 02:11:42,440 Speaker 1: today or any tasks you needed to accomplish and you 2968 02:11:42,560 --> 02:11:44,720 Speaker 1: just trudged through it, man, great job out of you. 2969 02:11:44,800 --> 02:11:46,760 Speaker 1: And then we've been talking about it this morning. The 2970 02:11:46,800 --> 02:11:50,160 Speaker 1: workers who get up and plow the streets and make 2971 02:11:50,200 --> 02:11:54,280 Speaker 1: everything happen and make everything go, whether it's public, private, whatever. 2972 02:11:55,080 --> 02:11:56,240 Speaker 2: Thanks for keeping us moving. 2973 02:11:56,320 --> 02:11:59,240 Speaker 1: Man, it takes a village, they say, to keep a 2974 02:11:59,280 --> 02:12:02,360 Speaker 1: city like this going, And I think, really hats off 2975 02:12:02,400 --> 02:12:05,200 Speaker 1: to everybody who got up early and late yesterday to 2976 02:12:05,240 --> 02:12:08,560 Speaker 1: make the streets passable this morning. Great job about everybody 2977 02:12:09,000 --> 02:12:10,440 Speaker 1: was pretty good considering. 2978 02:12:10,480 --> 02:12:12,720 Speaker 4: Hey, I'm thankful for sure. I mean me and my 2979 02:12:12,840 --> 02:12:16,080 Speaker 4: Honda Civic. Baby, we made it through, but only because 2980 02:12:16,120 --> 02:12:18,640 Speaker 4: the snows plow. You know, I'm not exactly sitting up 2981 02:12:18,680 --> 02:12:20,240 Speaker 4: too high in the Honda Civic. 2982 02:12:20,800 --> 02:12:24,560 Speaker 1: All right, So here's the first odds, so to speak, 2983 02:12:24,720 --> 02:12:28,800 Speaker 1: lines spreads from Super Bowl sixty coming up. We've got 2984 02:12:28,800 --> 02:12:32,400 Speaker 1: Seattle against New England already this morning the line is 2985 02:12:32,440 --> 02:12:34,400 Speaker 1: down to four and a half. So maybe I'm seeing 2986 02:12:34,440 --> 02:12:36,880 Speaker 1: this thing wrong, but I like Seattle to cover that 2987 02:12:37,440 --> 02:12:39,760 Speaker 1: right now. The over under forty six and a half. 2988 02:12:39,840 --> 02:12:41,080 Speaker 1: How do you feel about that one? 2989 02:12:41,520 --> 02:12:44,120 Speaker 2: It's also one of the lower in quite some time there. 2990 02:12:44,240 --> 02:12:46,920 Speaker 2: Sam Darnold's also the first USC quarterback to start a 2991 02:12:46,960 --> 02:12:48,760 Speaker 2: Super Bowl? Is that real? Yeah? 2992 02:12:48,920 --> 02:12:51,200 Speaker 4: I read that and that was crazy to me. 2993 02:12:53,280 --> 02:12:57,240 Speaker 2: But I didn't realize how big of an underdog New 2994 02:12:57,240 --> 02:13:01,160 Speaker 2: England was entering the season. I read someone there where 2995 02:13:01,040 --> 02:13:06,080 Speaker 2: they're like the third biggest preseason underdog in the last 2996 02:13:06,120 --> 02:13:07,440 Speaker 2: fifty years. 2997 02:13:07,920 --> 02:13:09,560 Speaker 4: What I would like to know is how many teams 2998 02:13:09,560 --> 02:13:12,440 Speaker 4: start owing to and reach the Super Bowl? Like things 2999 02:13:12,480 --> 02:13:15,640 Speaker 4: were looking bad in New England early on. I mean, 3000 02:13:15,720 --> 02:13:18,400 Speaker 4: granted it is only two weeks, but teams that start 3001 02:13:18,440 --> 02:13:20,680 Speaker 4: owing two usually do not make the playoffs in the NFL. 3002 02:13:20,720 --> 02:13:21,920 Speaker 4: As crazy as that sounds. 3003 02:13:21,640 --> 02:13:22,200 Speaker 2: But it is true. 3004 02:13:22,200 --> 02:13:25,400 Speaker 4: It is they overwhelming majority of teams that start oh 3005 02:13:25,480 --> 02:13:28,520 Speaker 4: and too do not make it, which is why this 3006 02:13:28,520 --> 02:13:29,640 Speaker 4: is a big deal for the Coats to finally win 3007 02:13:29,640 --> 02:13:30,320 Speaker 4: their season opener. 3008 02:13:30,520 --> 02:13:35,680 Speaker 2: I've been playing ninety nine rams Bigger odds preseason. They won, 3009 02:13:35,760 --> 02:13:37,920 Speaker 2: of course, the Greatest Show on Turf and then the 3010 02:13:38,040 --> 02:13:43,680 Speaker 2: twenty one Bengals and the sixteen Falcons. That's pretty wild 3011 02:13:43,920 --> 02:13:47,080 Speaker 2: New England preseason. We're eighty to one to win it all. 3012 02:13:47,120 --> 02:13:49,320 Speaker 2: So it's a little bit of like, you know, a 3013 02:13:49,320 --> 02:13:53,040 Speaker 2: little bit IU football type of preseason odds. And now 3014 02:13:53,040 --> 02:13:53,839 Speaker 2: here they are. 3015 02:13:54,680 --> 02:13:56,200 Speaker 4: Who's the best quarterback in this game? 3016 02:13:56,680 --> 02:14:01,000 Speaker 2: Right now? Today? It's probably he's still heard, isn't he. 3017 02:14:01,760 --> 02:14:04,400 Speaker 4: No, I'm saying, who's the best quarterback in the Super Bowl? 3018 02:14:04,480 --> 02:14:04,600 Speaker 9: Oh? 3019 02:14:04,600 --> 02:14:07,880 Speaker 2: Okay, Drake may or Sam Donald? Yeah, I think it's 3020 02:14:07,880 --> 02:14:09,480 Speaker 2: a good debate. You know, I don't think we've seen 3021 02:14:09,680 --> 02:14:12,240 Speaker 2: normal Drake May here in this postseason. I also think 3022 02:14:12,280 --> 02:14:14,400 Speaker 2: he's been in some very inclement weather games that have 3023 02:14:14,480 --> 02:14:18,760 Speaker 2: impacted it. Certainly, Donald was cooking yesterday, and Donald, you know, 3024 02:14:18,800 --> 02:14:22,040 Speaker 2: has had really nice moments. That's that's a good one, James. 3025 02:14:22,080 --> 02:14:27,520 Speaker 2: I don't. Yeah, I don't know if I feel overwhelmingly 3026 02:14:28,040 --> 02:14:31,040 Speaker 2: convicted on either of them. I might say it's May, 3027 02:14:31,200 --> 02:14:33,880 Speaker 2: but certainly plenty of evidence appointed Donald here with this 3028 02:14:33,920 --> 02:14:34,520 Speaker 2: playoff wrong. 3029 02:14:34,560 --> 02:14:37,000 Speaker 1: Well, the odds makers think Sam Donald is the favorite 3030 02:14:37,000 --> 02:14:39,000 Speaker 1: to be the Super Bowl MVP. Some of that is 3031 02:14:39,040 --> 02:14:42,000 Speaker 1: because the Seahawks are favored to win. Quarterbacks winning teams. 3032 02:14:42,400 --> 02:14:43,880 Speaker 1: But I go back to what I've been saying, like, 3033 02:14:43,960 --> 02:14:46,800 Speaker 1: I think he's found his game and who he is. 3034 02:14:47,840 --> 02:14:49,600 Speaker 1: You look at what he did with Minnesota last year, 3035 02:14:49,600 --> 02:14:51,360 Speaker 1: you look at what he's done with Seattle this year. 3036 02:14:51,400 --> 02:14:54,840 Speaker 1: He has lifted both of those offenses in large part 3037 02:14:55,000 --> 02:14:59,160 Speaker 1: his play And I think it's not a coincidence that 3038 02:14:59,240 --> 02:15:01,800 Speaker 1: last year Justin Jefferson was considered the best wide receiver 3039 02:15:01,880 --> 02:15:04,200 Speaker 1: in the league, and that Jackson Smith and Jigbo is 3040 02:15:04,240 --> 02:15:07,720 Speaker 1: probably the best wide receiver in this particular season. I 3041 02:15:07,720 --> 02:15:09,600 Speaker 1: think the quarterback has had something to do with that. 3042 02:15:09,880 --> 02:15:12,440 Speaker 1: The odds right now Sam Darnold plus one p thirty 3043 02:15:12,480 --> 02:15:15,280 Speaker 1: to win the MVP. Drake May next at plus two 3044 02:15:15,320 --> 02:15:18,320 Speaker 1: thirty five. And also I look at that spread. It's 3045 02:15:18,320 --> 02:15:20,920 Speaker 1: four and a half, but it's minus two thirty on 3046 02:15:20,960 --> 02:15:23,080 Speaker 1: the money line, which makes me think on that spread 3047 02:15:23,120 --> 02:15:25,320 Speaker 1: that right now the odds makers are getting some juice 3048 02:15:25,320 --> 02:15:26,880 Speaker 1: from a lot of the New England fans that are 3049 02:15:26,920 --> 02:15:27,320 Speaker 1: out there. 3050 02:15:27,680 --> 02:15:30,520 Speaker 2: I know we've mentioned Pacers up at one thirty today. 3051 02:15:30,560 --> 02:15:32,760 Speaker 2: They bumped up that yesterday due to weather, so it's 3052 02:15:32,760 --> 02:15:34,880 Speaker 2: supposed to be seven thirty as they round out this 3053 02:15:34,960 --> 02:15:37,560 Speaker 2: road trip in Atlanta, one thirty today. You've got some 3054 02:15:37,680 --> 02:15:40,920 Speaker 2: great college hoops tonight if you want to start to 3055 02:15:40,920 --> 02:15:45,800 Speaker 2: look ahead to the draft. Louisville Duke seven o'clock there, 3056 02:15:45,880 --> 02:15:48,560 Speaker 2: so you've got, you know a couple of top ten 3057 02:15:49,120 --> 02:15:51,240 Speaker 2: picks in that matchup. And then for those that have 3058 02:15:51,280 --> 02:15:55,160 Speaker 2: not seen Arizona or BYU tonight, First off, Arizona looks 3059 02:15:55,160 --> 02:15:57,280 Speaker 2: like a team that could be here in Indy coming 3060 02:15:57,320 --> 02:15:58,040 Speaker 2: up first week of eight. 3061 02:15:58,040 --> 02:15:58,920 Speaker 4: Bastillun defeated. 3062 02:16:02,240 --> 02:16:05,160 Speaker 2: That's a good question. Part of me says, yes, but 3063 02:16:05,320 --> 02:16:07,440 Speaker 2: please feel free to double check me on that. And 3064 02:16:07,440 --> 02:16:10,919 Speaker 2: then BYU. It's Arizona at BYU, so obviously the BYU, 3065 02:16:11,080 --> 02:16:14,760 Speaker 2: you know, twenty to oh number one of the countries. Ajdabansa, Yeah, 3066 02:16:14,800 --> 02:16:17,560 Speaker 2: I don't think we're entering I don't know. Maybe we 3067 02:16:17,600 --> 02:16:19,480 Speaker 2: are entering UNDERFEEDA.
