1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Good morning, everyone, and welcome into the Fan Morning Show.

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: Along with the one and only James Boyd, it's the

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: intrepid Kevin Bowen and Mark Dykeden in this morning as well.

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 1: Jeff Record with you as always, and we got a

5
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 1: lot to get to today. The college basketball season is

6
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: in full force right now, maybe not full force in

7
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: a conference play, but we're starting to get some pretty

8
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: interesting non conference matchups. We talk about Purdue and Rutgers

9
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: was a conference game last night. But did you guys

10
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: watch any of the duke game last night?

11
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: That was really good?

12
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: Duke in Florida.

13
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, watch a little bit of that. Definitely watched a

14
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: good amount of what Braylan Mullens and Florida badunga action

15
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: boy Braylan Mullens to be in a second college game

16
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 2: and to step into Allen field House no fear whatsoever.

17
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 2: Seventeen points off the bench for him, some critical free

18
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 2: throws he hit to help ice the game. So yeah,

19
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 2: I don't think we're too too surprised, but still shout

20
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: out to him. That was impressive to watch last night.

21
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 2: Badonga did have a double double, but it was Yukon

22
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 2: winning an Allen Fieldhouse last night. So great night of

23
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 2: hoops and yes, pretty getting it done, butler getting it done?

24
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: And can I get a little shout out to my Irish.

25
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: You can always give a shout out to here Irish.

26
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 3: There late night.

27
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: Stayed up for that one. The audible scream was pretty

28
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 2: pathetic out about eleven fifteen. I'm not gonna lie, but

29
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 2: boy it felt good. Thank you Cole sir.

30
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: So it woke me up again.

31
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 2: Might have woken you up.

32
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: That is an interesting hat you're rocking today to the

33
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: indie Notre Dame the with the ND being part of

34
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: the indie there where does it? Where does that come from?

35
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: Where do you find that I n d y?

36
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:29,320
Speaker 2: Right?

37
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, where's where's that come from?

38
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 2: Trying to support Matt Taylor? Does he still do the

39
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 2: I N d y? Mark Dyke?

40
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: That's a classic, but it's very much Notre Dame themed though?

41
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: Is Notre Dame not getting in depend?

42
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: You better hope that BYU doesn't win the football game.

43
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: I got some thoughts on that in a bit.

44
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 4: I'm still I'm more confused today than I was. Yesterdames Boyd,

45
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,919
Speaker 4: I would agree, Lord have mercy. All of the arguments

46
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 4: from whatever side has me just kind of spending a

47
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 4: little bit so waiting for you to get into that,

48
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 4: and I'm sure we'll dive more into it. But I

49
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 4: guess if you're I you you don't have to worry

50
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 4: about that because there once again what number two.

51
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: So we went in doubt in that ten, that nine, ten, eleven,

52
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: twelve range. If you're in the SEC you're probably in

53
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: good shape.

54
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 2: Mmm. I just I just feel like conspiracy theory. That

55
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: was the ricker, that wasn't Kevin.

56
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: But I don't even think they tried to hide it

57
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 1: that much anymore, do they. I've got some thoughts, Yeah,

58
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: I bet you do. I can't wait to hear those

59
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: things a little bit later on. But yeah, Butler got

60
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: to win last night over at the Fieldhouse. That was fun.

61
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: Purdue took care of their business as you wanted them

62
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: to do. Kevin, just go take care of business at

63
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: Rutgers and not screw that up, right.

64
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, Rutgers is horrible. So yeah, good on Purdue. Jakari

65
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: Harris big off the bench. Uh so yeah, Noace Bailey

66
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 2: to give you some Dylan Harper. No, I'm trying to

67
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: think of the white dude at the head band. They

68
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: had a few years ago. Yeah, they it is not

69
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 2: a very good Rutgers team. And yeah, we'll see about

70
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 2: Indiana tonight. You know, it's kind of rare you get

71
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 2: Purdue to start the Big Ten Conference on the road

72
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 2: last night, Indiana start their Big Ten Conference on the

73
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 2: road tonight at Minnesota, and they're both double digit favorites.

74
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 2: You know, how many times do we talk about the

75
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: vaunted road in the Big Ten? And yet Perdue was

76
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 2: what sixteen point last night Indiana as I think ten

77
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 2: and a half tonight. So if you are going to

78
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: start your Big Ten slate with a road game, these

79
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: are ideal opponents for Perdue and Indiana, I think to

80
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 2: get things started here, so I believe it's an earlier

81
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 2: start time, at least locally from Minnesota. They haven't been

82
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 2: very good this year. Six o'clock Central at the Barn.

83
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: And James Boyd. I also noticed when I was flipping

84
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: through things late yesterday that the Indianapolis Cults have indeed

85
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: made a change at the kicker position.

86
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, help me with his name, Groupie, Kevin? Is it

87
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 4: groopy correct? So Blake Groupie. He is taking over for

88
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 4: Michael Bagley who was waived, which was not a surprise

89
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 4: at all. I think all of us, especially Kevin, knew

90
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 4: that was going to happen, because you can't miss three

91
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 4: point after its Simpson seven games and keep your job.

92
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 3: But the reaction I got.

93
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 4: From most fans Kevin was oh my gosh, this guy

94
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 4: stinks too, And part of me was like, well, there

95
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 4: are no good kickers left at this point in the year,

96
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 4: so whatever you have your sign is gonna be flawed.

97
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 4: But at least when it comes to Blake Groupie, he's

98
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 4: only missed two point after attempts in his career. I

99
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 4: think he's eighty six to eighty eight and hasn't missed

100
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 4: any of the season. Now he is eighteen of I

101
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 4: believe twenty six or twenty four. It might be higher

102
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 4: than that, might be a twenty six on field goals

103
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 4: this year. So not a good percentage from that perspective.

104
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 4: But you gotta pick and choose your flaws. I guess, Yeah,

105
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 4: you didn't have this problem James back in the day.

106
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 4: But the picking the Colts kicker in December is like

107
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 4: Kevin Bowen trying to pick someone to dance with him

108
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 4: at homecoming. Yeah, James Boyd, can you know pick those

109
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 4: in the offseason when the pool it's much much deeper

110
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 4: for Kevin bow And it's it's a struggle.

111
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 2: Is he the smallest dude in the NFL? I always

112
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: felt that way when he was at Name Mark. Give

113
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: us the height and wait for Blake groupie, because I

114
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 2: actually you have it pulled up here. Look at James Wood.

115
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,239
Speaker 3: He's five to seven a buck fifty six.

116
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 2: A buck fifty six, James Woyd, Not to get too personal,

117
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 2: what are you waning in these days?

118
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 4: I'm five to ten buck fifty so yeah, that is

119
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 4: kind of crazy that we're basically the same time.

120
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 2: Michael Badsley wasn't big by any means. Yeah, he's bigger

121
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: than this guy. So yes, James, I think you pointed

122
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,599
Speaker 2: it out very accurately when you're shopping for kickers in

123
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 2: the month of December. The warts are evidence.

124
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 4: I got people telling me all the Colts still want

125
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 4: to lose, and it's like, no, they don't.

126
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 3: They just have to pick. What's the do it's there?

127
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: So again, why do you do it? You mentioned eighty

128
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: six of eighty eight on extra points in his career.

129
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 2: In his career, didn't miss one this year with New Orleans.

130
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 2: He has kicked in the league the last three years

131
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 2: for the Saints, So you do have a guy that,

132
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not gonna act like he's been in

133
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 2: playoff atmospheres, but you have a guy that obviously has kicked.

134
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 2: And Brian Mason, the Colt special teams coordinator, was his

135
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 2: coordinator at Notre Dame for a year. So again you're

136
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: always looking for some of these connections. Background Spencer Schrader

137
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 2: had it with Brian Mason at Notre Dame as well.

138
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 2: Seemingly Notre Dame kickers are everywhere, So yeah, that's what

139
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: you've got here. Now, why did he just get cut?

140
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: Because he got cut last week, James, as you said,

141
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: not only did he miss I think you said eight

142
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: field goals this year, Yeah, eighteen to twenty six. I'd

143
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 2: circle the five misses inside of fifty. So it Kenny's

144
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 2: perfect on extra points, but we're talking three misses in

145
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: the forty yard range, two misses in the thirty yard range. Again,

146
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 2: that is less than ideal, but you know what, the

147
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: bar is low. Just make extra points.

148
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: You're not going to be kicking for the Colts.

149
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 2: I think that's what you gotta do. Make extra points.

150
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: Justin Tucker's not going to be kicking for the Colts. Allegedly,

151
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: he was part of the tryout.

152
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it was official.

153
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 4: They definitely reported number forty yet, but they put out

154
00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 4: the transactions afterwards. So it was Madistrhio, Justin Tucker, and

155
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 4: Blake Groupie the three man kicker tryout matts for Heo

156
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 4: was the undrafted free agent that the Colts actually signed

157
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 4: during the offseason. He was competing with at the time

158
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 4: Spencer Strader for the kicking jobs. Well, he's a familiar face.

159
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 4: And then, as Jeff pointed out, Justin Tucker, who was

160
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 4: accused of sexual misconduct by sixteen massage parlor. Not massage,

161
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, sixteen massage people. So yeah, not to ideal.

162
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And to go a little bit further on, Justin

163
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 2: Tucker suspended for the first ten games this season. And

164
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: then I think he's worked out. He definitely had a

165
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: try out in New Orleans. Ironically enough, when they cut

166
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: Blake Groupy, he did not win that tryout. I don't

167
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: know if he's worked out any other place. I think two,

168
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 2: this is it. Obviously, you have what James just pointed out.

169
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: Now I'm not totally stunned the Colts would kick the

170
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 2: tires on this. I know a lot of people brought

171
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 2: up a you got three woman owners, et cetera, et cetera.

172
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 2: I think if Deshaun Watson wouldn't have played for the

173
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: Houston Texans and been in another division, I think the

174
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: Colts would have had interest in him a couple of

175
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,239
Speaker 2: years back, if you want to compare the two stories.

176
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 2: And I know it's not exactly apples to apples, but

177
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: that is the comp that I know a lot of

178
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 2: people have thrown out there. So I'm not totally stunned

179
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: by this. You know, oh you know it's only choir

180
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 2: boys that.

181
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 3: Play out there too.

182
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 4: The only reason, not the only reason, but the main

183
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 4: reason I believe that Justin Tucker is unemployed is because

184
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 4: he was garbage the last time he played football. So

185
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 4: I don't want to sit here in act like the

186
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 4: Colts or any other team has this moral high ground

187
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 4: to stand on, like they would never ever ever sign

188
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 4: someone who's an unsavory character, has a past that isn't

189
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 4: all that great. Not to go too far down memory

190
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 4: lane here, but Xavin Howard when they signed him, he's

191
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 4: definitely had some baggage and they started him immediately. So

192
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 4: my thinking is, looking at Justin Tucker's career last year

193
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 4: before he got cut, suspended and what have you, he

194
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 4: only made seventy percent of his kicks career low.

195
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 3: That's why he's jobless.

196
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was. The Colts obviously moved on from Matt Gay, right,

197
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 2: everyone's done with Mat Gay. Justin Tucker was ten percent

198
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 2: worse than Matt Gay last year exactly. He's a thirty

199
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 2: second ranked kicker in the NFL. So uh that if

200
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,719
Speaker 2: he was still Hall of Fame level Justin Tucker, he

201
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 2: would be kicking.

202
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: He would have a job, He'd have a job somewhere.

203
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 2: So the first time in franchise history the Colts will

204
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 2: have three place kickers in a season. Kind of wild.

205
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 2: They've had such stability at that position. And you know,

206
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 2: obviously the injury to trader performance for Badgeley And here

207
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 2: you are, Blake Group. You could hide him, You could

208
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 2: run a great fake, right, you can just hide him

209
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 2: behind the line of scrimmage some way, somehow, And all

210
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 2: of a sudden, next thing, you know, he's popping out

211
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 2: for a little fake.

212
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 5: And the opposing teams are licking their lips to lay

213
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 5: a hit. On him because he's a buck fifty. Got

214
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 5: to find him first.

215
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 2: If they can't hit him. It's like Darren Sproles, just

216
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 2: get down, get.

217
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 3: Low, spars with a gre a player.

218
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: He was, he had some speed, the little little something

219
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: to him.

220
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 2: To that man killed the Colts Joker in the building tonight. God,

221
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 2: I love watching him.

222
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 6: He is.

223
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 4: On the shortlist of greatest way I've ever seen in

224
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 4: person myself up there with the There are certain players

225
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 4: I look at and I'm like, wait, is that the

226
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 4: best way I've ever seen? And he's one of them, him, Lebron,

227
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 4: Steph Curry, Kevin Durant. It's probably the shortlist of degeneration

228
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 4: that I've looked at in person and said Johann is

229
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 4: probably as well. On any given night, if you tell

230
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 4: me that's the best player of this era, I probably

231
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 4: be like, yeah, you know what, Yes, you're right.

232
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: And he's torched the Pacers. There is no every other team,

233
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: but yes, there's no team he averages more points against

234
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 2: in his NBA career than.

235
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 3: I mean to tell me Jay Huff isn't.

236
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 2: The Indiana Pacers. Well, I don't know. Stner wasn't in

237
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 2: recent years. Maybe this is Jay Huff's time. All right,

238
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: you're up, Strap up, Jay Huff. Here we go.

239
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 4: What if I ever had like just one good game

240
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 4: against the Joker, if I was HUF for anybody else,

241
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 4: I'd wear that for the rest of the time.

242
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: And at the highlight reel for only then.

243
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, on one given day, I was just I

244
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 4: was on par with the greatest.

245
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: All right, Well, a lot to talk about today. It's

246
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 1: fan morning show coming to you as we already hit

247
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 1: the mid week mark of the week. Here, we can't

248
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: wait Wednesday mark. It's home day, the mid read of

249
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: the week. I got myself caught in the corner Wednesday, Baby,

250
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: got myself caught in the corner there, and I couldn't

251
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 1: figure out how to go.

252
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: That's all right, it's Wednesday.

253
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you, Joy. All right, we'll do it all

254
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: next with uh. We'll start with the checkdown and everything else.

255
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: We got a big show today, Stephen Hole. We're gonna

256
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: stop by and talk more about those tryouts yesterday and

257
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: also checking in with the Indiana Sports Court. We got

258
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: a big weekend coming up here in downtown Indy. We'll

259
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 1: tell you all about it next ninety three five and

260
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: one oh seven five the fan.

261
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 7: The morning checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh

262
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 7: seven five the fans.

263
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: Help your Wednesday's up to a fly and start, and

264
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: you're keeping it a little bit warm today. The conditions

265
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: outside should be a little bit better for driving. We'll

266
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: get to that if there are any problems to In

267
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: the meantime, we're gonna focus on the Indianapolis Colts. Even

268
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: though they had the day off yesterday, most of the players,

269
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: they did work out some kickers and James. They now

270
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,119
Speaker 1: have a brand new kicker when they play at Jacksonville

271
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: on Sunday.

272
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 4: Yes, Blake Groupie is the new kicker. As Kevin's alluded

273
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 4: to a few minutes ago. He's a small guy for

274
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 4: the NFL five seven, a buck fifty six, but he

275
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 4: doesn't miss pats, which is the main reason that Michael

276
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 4: Badgey no longer has a job here.

277
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: Be interesting to see what the Colts do, Kevin, if

278
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: they've got like a fourth and three at Jacksonville's, say,

279
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: thirty eight yard line coming up on Sunday afternoon.

280
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, for what it's worth, group he does have a

281
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 2: little bit more of a distance to his resume than

282
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 2: Michael Badgeley. I don't want to act like this is

283
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 2: some elite kicker by any means north of fifty yards.

284
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 2: But I think he's got a little bit more in

285
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 2: that department. But again, let's not be crazy lofty here

286
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 2: with expectations. Just make extra points. He's had struggles inside

287
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: of fifty this year, welcome to life, looking for a

288
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 2: kick in the month of December, and he is in

289
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 2: the practice squad, So I assume, James, that will just

290
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 2: be a promotion here for the next couple of weeks. Yeah,

291
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 2: then they can finalize that you get three of those.

292
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 2: They do have an open roster spot currently on the

293
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 2: fifty three man roster. My assumption is that goes to

294
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 2: Jaalen Carlis at the end of the week. He is

295
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 2: yet to be called up from injured reserve. He's practiced

296
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 2: for two weeks, still has one more week left to practice,

297
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 2: so they have to make a decision by the end

298
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,599
Speaker 2: of the week. That would be my assumption.

299
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 4: And just to piggyback off of that, if they don't

300
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 4: call him off of R by the end of this

301
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 4: upcoming week, he will have to remain on IR for

302
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 4: the rest of the season and he will not play again, all.

303
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,840
Speaker 1: Right, So that'll be coming up on Sunday afternoon one

304
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: o'clock in Jacksonville. Kevin, if I'd have told you on

305
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: August fifteenth it's week thirteen Colts Jaguars for first place

306
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: in the AFC South, would you have taken it at

307
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: that time?

308
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 2: I probably would have signed up for it, certainly.

309
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: Well, that's the situation now. People are getting a little

310
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: bit nervous about the whole thing after that seven and

311
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: one start, right.

312
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 2: Yes, I would say nerves are high, and it's, yeah,

313
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 2: without question, one of the biggest games the Stike in

314
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 2: Ballard era has seen.

315
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: All Right, we'll look forward to that game coming up

316
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: this weekend. Our coverage we'll start at ten am with

317
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: JMB right ninety three to five and one on seventy

318
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: five the fans. We've got NBA basketball at the field

319
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: House tonight, the Pacers hosting the Denver Nuggets, and maybe

320
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: the best player of his generation, James Boyd.

321
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean again, peak for peak.

322
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 4: I'll probably go resume and say, hey, it's probably Lebron

323
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 4: James or Stephen Curry for this era, but Peak four peak,

324
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 4: he's right up there with those guys. And the Pacers

325
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 4: certainly have their hands full against that.

326
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: Guy, Nikola Jokicic and the Nuggets will be in town

327
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: tonight six thirty airtime here on ninety three five and

328
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: one O seven to five. The fan tip comes just

329
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: after seven o'clock with the one and only Mark Boyle

330
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: College Basketball last night here in town at Hinkle Fieldhouse.

331
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: Butler a winner over Eastern Michigan eighty four to sixty eight,

332
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: and out east in New Jersey. It's the number one

333
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: ranked team of the nation Perdue with an eighty one

334
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: sixty five went over Rutgers, so you can rust easy

335
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: on that one.

336
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 2: Kevin Bowen, Yeah, no fear for Purdue fans in terms

337
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 2: of the December road Big ten curse. Here. They really

338
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: were in full full control for the final thirty minutes

339
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: of that game. I thought Jacari Harris in particular was

340
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 2: very good in the first half off the bench. They

341
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 2: now have a big one in macki on Saturday. It's

342
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 2: Iowa State. Wonder if one Tyrese Haliburton might make an

343
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: appearance inside of Mackie coming up on Saturday. That will

344
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: feed into au Louisville, so Purdue will actually get things

345
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 2: started on CBS there and James I know you've asked

346
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 2: that Mada about him, but man Finley Bizjack has just

347
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 2: had such a good year for Butler and there's so

348
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 2: many new faces for Butler and Bizjack was one that

349
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: he's flirted with the transfer portal and for the Texas

350
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 2: kid to stay there. He's played at an all Big

351
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 2: East first team level. That was chippy last night. I

352
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 2: was watching that. That was a bit of a I

353
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 2: think Finley said after the game, a bit of a

354
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 2: bar fight there. But Butler was able to continue their

355
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: nice start to this season. They'll have Boise State in

356
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 2: their building on Saturday, Boise team that typically hovers right

357
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: around that NCAA tournament bubble, so important for Butler to

358
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: get another nice one for the resume.

359
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: A lot of good college basketball on the way. Notre

360
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: Dame in beating Missouri last night, seventy six, seventy one,

361
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: and you wore the sweatshirt this morning, James, Indiana State

362
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: with a win at home ninety nine to fifty seven

363
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: over Eureka. Did you watch any of that one last night?

364
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 4: No, no chance, I don't even know what channel that

365
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 4: comes on. So Sycamore as rold Trees.

366
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: There you go a little bit of a college football

367
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: game coming up on Saturday over at Lucas Oil Stadium

368
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: in the evening eight o'clock. It'll be the Big Ten

369
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: Conference championship between number one ranked Ohio State number two Indiana.

370
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: And it's crazy you open up the daily newsletter from

371
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: the Athletic this morning and the entire newsletters about the

372
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: Indiana Hoosiers and how not only are they truly an

373
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: elite football team, but over the last two years, Kevin

374
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: who's more consistent with less change and just keeping it

375
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: steady in college football than maybe you could talk about

376
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: Ohio State. But Indiana's right there, low turnover for players,

377
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: a little bit better than they were last year, right

378
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: where they're supposed to be, everybody acknowledging them as legitimate

379
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: and here to stay for a while.

380
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 2: Speaking of steady, their ranking number two last night in

381
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: the college football playoff, if that bracket were to be

382
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 2: the one we see on Sunday, the final bracket, it

383
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 2: would be the winner of Texas A and M and

384
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 2: Notre Dame on a neutral field than the Seeds were

385
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 2: to hold Georgia in Ohio State.

386
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 1: Off of that, in that latest ranking last night, Notre

387
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: Dame was jumped one spot by Alabama. Are you a

388
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: little bit nervous depending on how the conference championships work out,

389
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:35,239
Speaker 1: that Notre Dame could be left without a dance partner. Yes, right,

390
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: We'll have to wait and see how it all plays out.

391
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 2: It was only I think the committee stinks.

392
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: Yes, I agree. Ohio State number one, Indiana two, Georgia three,

393
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: Texas Tech four. Notre Dame was jumped by Alabama, who's

394
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: number nine. Now Notre Dame is tenth. By the way,

395
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: Tulane the highest ranked non Power for conference team at

396
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: number twenty. I guess a lot of folks are looking

397
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 1: to see how BYU and Texas Tech shakeout the Big twelve.

398
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: If BYU wins that what happens now all kinds of

399
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: chaos going on in college football. I won't have to

400
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: wait and see how it does, indeed all shake out

401
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 1: anything else you guys want to throw in right now?

402
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we mentioned the opener, but I thought

403
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 2: it was fun last night watching Kansas and Yukon and

404
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: seeing Florida badoing Ga and Braylen Mullens and the floor

405
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 2: Mullins outstanding off the bench for Yukon.

406
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 4: That's the kid I remember watching in Greenfield Central. He

407
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 4: was special last night. And honestly, Kevin, that's what you

408
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 4: saw him play like when he was in high school.

409
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 3: He can just shoot. When you can.

410
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 4: Shoot like that, that's professional basketball shooting, right.

411
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 2: And there's no fear Like I would add that as well,

412
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 2: like you know, it's one thing to be an elite shooter.

413
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 2: And again nothing against whatever Indian high school basketball any means,

414
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 2: but like to walk into Allen Field House in your

415
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 2: second college game. For those that have been following, Brailen

416
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 2: Mowans been out for a while, I think an ankle injury,

417
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 2: and for him to walk in there provide seventeen point

418
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 2: the big free throws late, I mean it.

419
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 3: Was getting any Yeah, for sure.

420
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 2: You know that's what I shot what five venues in

421
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 2: all of college basketball. So I enjoyed watching that. Really

422
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: great night for college hoops. So that was fun to

423
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 2: watch out. We should mention Indiana. They've got Minnesota tonight

424
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 2: in the Barn. Indiana's actually been pretty good up there.

425
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 2: Three in a row they've won at the bar and

426
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 2: ten and a half point favorite. So w IBC we'll

427
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 2: have your coverage at six o'clock.

428
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 4: One more on Brailin. I will say he has in

429
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 4: the gym range. The kid can just wake up and

430
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 4: shoot special player and it's cool to see him get

431
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 4: that moment after missing most of the season early on

432
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 4: due to an angle injury.

433
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: All right, that's the tappening in the world of sports.

434
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: Coming up at a moment, we'll talk a little bit.

435
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: I'm curious, Kevin, you've got thoughts you want to get

436
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 1: into the college football playoff coming up in a moment

437
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: here you ready to go?

438
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 2: I think the committee is just a bunch of idiots.

439
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: Ninety three to five in one oh seven five, Good morning,

440
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: walcome into the Fan Morning Show along with Kevin Bowen,

441
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: James Boyd, Mark Dyke, and I'm jeff Rickard. And we've

442
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 1: been talking a little bit this morning about the brand

443
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: new college football Playoff rankings and this is the next

444
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 1: to last ranking before the college conference championships are going

445
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 1: to be played throughout the next six to seven days. So,

446
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: and Kevin Bowen, I know you are not a fan

447
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: right now. Notre Dame is in. They were passed up

448
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: a little bit by Alabama, but they are in at

449
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: this point in time. But you're not a big fan

450
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: of not only how this thing gets decided, but the

451
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: folks who make up the committee.

452
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 2: I yet, let me start here, because when you call

453
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 2: yourself a Notre Dame fan, people hate you. So people

454
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 2: hate me enough for that. So let me clarify. When

455
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 2: you lose two games, you're not bowltproof. You guys saw

456
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 2: my dejection the Monday after the TEXTA, A and M

457
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 2: loss earlier this year.

458
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 1: It took you six weeks to get out of that, right.

459
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 2: I knew full well that even if you did rattle

460
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: off ten in a row by an average of thirty points,

461
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 2: which Notre Dame is done. Here, we are debating them

462
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 2: as the final team, man, and they deserve it. You

463
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 2: scheduled Miami and Texas A and M. You need to

464
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 2: beat one of those two if you want to sit

465
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 2: here on December third and kick your feet up when

466
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 2: it comes to these playoff rankings. Having said that, the

467
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 2: fact that the committee last night explained to us that

468
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 2: Alabama jumped Notre Dame because they beat a one sec

469
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 2: win Auburn team by seven points on Saturday, as Notre

470
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 2: Dame beat a very similar opponent by thirty on the road,

471
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 2: made zero sense to me whatsoever. The one win that

472
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 2: Auburn has in the SEC is over Arkansas. You know

473
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 2: what Notre Dame did Arkansas this year. They won on

474
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: the road and beat them by forty. So explain that

475
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 2: to me. How in the world is the committee putting

476
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,919
Speaker 2: Alabama over Notre Dame based off what the committee chair

477
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 2: said last night, their gritty, gutty win over entering the

478
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 2: house crazy Auburn.

479
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 3: That was crazy.

480
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 4: Again, I'm not a costootball guy, but that was just

481
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 4: an insane explanation to me, because they're not good and

482
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 4: we're what we're putting all that on the iron ball

483
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 4: like all tradition and how things used to be.

484
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 2: But if anybody watched that game, Auburn gifted that they

485
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,959
Speaker 2: had probably seven or eight drops in that game. And

486
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 2: I don't play the conspiracy card often. I don't like

487
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 2: it at all. But will you guys tell me where

488
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 2: the committee chair resides?

489
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: I did.

490
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 3: We talked about this.

491
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 2: I brought this up, mark you and form our audience

492
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: the committee chair.

493
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 3: Yes, I brought this.

494
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: We had the Baylor ad have to exit stage right,

495
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 2: and so the new committee chair it's a member of

496
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 2: the Southeastern Conference.

497
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: That's why I said a little while ago Southeastern Conference.

498
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: Here's here's what's going to be really interesting. Three loss

499
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: Alabama gonna get in. There's a possibility three loss Alabama.

500
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 2: Now this is where the debate gets really really dicey.

501
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 2: So if you look at the end of the rankings

502
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 2: right now, you have Alabama at nine, Notre Dame at ten,

503
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 2: BYU at eleven, Miami at twelve. Notre Dame is the

504
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 2: last team in right there at ten. What does championship

505
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 2: weekend mean? Can you only move up? Can you move back?

506
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 2: Because the two teams on the other side of Notre

507
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 2: Dame they both play on Saturday. Alabama plays Georgia in

508
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 2: the SEC title game and BYU plays Texas Tech. If

509
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 2: you're a Notre Dame fan, you have to share for

510
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 2: Texas Tech. Right, Well, then does that push BYU behind Miami?

511
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 2: Now do we have Miami next to Notre Dame? So

512
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 2: does head to head get brought back in after those

513
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: two teams played in Miami not on neutral field, of course,

514
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: but in Miami the first week of the season. And

515
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 2: then does Alabama drop if they lose to Georgia or

516
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 2: do we have the thought of teams that play on

517
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 2: championship weekend can't drop, they can only move up. So

518
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 2: it's yeah, if you're a Notre Dame fan right now,

519
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 2: just call we Girl Harendy because you're gonna need them.

520
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 3: So do you think they get in right now today?

521
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 3: If you have to?

522
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 8: I don't know.

523
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 3: I O would say bet any money, but gut feeling

524
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 3: do they don't know?

525
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 2: In all seriousness, I think even if let's say the

526
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 2: favorites hold this weekend.

527
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 3: That's that's best I was getting it.

528
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would uh. I think Miami gets next to them,

529
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 2: and then the committee finally does head to head from

530
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,919
Speaker 2: earlier in the season. I mean that, I'll say. And

531
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 2: I know people are quick to say, well, it's Notredame's

532
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:07,959
Speaker 2: a brand they're gonna get in. I mean last year,

533
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 2: remember who was the first team out Alabama. I mean,

534
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 2: when you talk about brands, you wouldn't want Alabama in

535
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 2: the playoffs. So I know there's the the you know,

536
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 2: the Notre Dame brand is going to make it because

537
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 2: of the whole conspiracy theory. But I think.

538
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 3: That's kind of crazy.

539
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 8: Again.

540
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 2: I'll go back to what I said at the start.

541
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 2: When you have two losses, you aren't bowltproof. Notre Dame

542
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 2: has made their own bed. But when you look at

543
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: any sort of computer ranking right now, and guys, even

544
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 2: if we don't want to nerd out over the computer rankings,

545
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 2: just go eye test on this mark. Bring up the

546
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 2: national title odds right now and tell me where Notre

547
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 2: Dame is on those odds. Whether you want to look

548
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 2: at computer rankings or whether you want to play the

549
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 2: eye test game. They're a top ten team.

550
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 3: That's where I'm at.

551
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 2: Where there's no debate.

552
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 3: They test.

553
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 2: There's no debating in the computer rankings. But even if

554
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 2: you don't want to say, hey, I don't show me

555
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 2: any nerdy numbers, just watch the games.

556
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean with you on that.

557
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 2: Remember last week we had Matt Weaverron from Pigs, and

558
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 2: he listed just out of the blue. He's like, yeah,

559
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 2: teams I wouldn't want ee you to face. I mean

560
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 2: he listened to Notre Dame like second or third on

561
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 2: that list. Yeah, so.

562
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 3: I actually think they're fourth, by the way, that's crazy.

563
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 2: I was listening to that.

564
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 3: That leads me to monyx Plo fourth. They're the last

565
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 3: team in right now, in the fourth the national time.

566
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 4: I was gonna say they're one of the teams if

567
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 4: they were to get in and this didn't really happen

568
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 4: last year. But with the expanded playoff, you get those

569
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 4: ten eleven, twelve teams in there, and you're like, all right,

570
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 4: nice season, great for you to be joined, join the party,

571
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 4: you know whatever. Whatever, I do think that they would

572
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 4: be a dark horse candidate to win it. That's how

573
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 4: well they played as of late.

574
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 2: I oddly probably feel this team has more potential to

575
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 2: make a run than I did last year's team. And

576
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: last year's team got the home game right, so again

577
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 2: they have made their own bed. I want to I

578
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: want to be very clear on you guys.

579
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 4: No, I'm not just with you, but others who are

580
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 4: sitting here at today, Like I get they made their

581
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,439
Speaker 4: own bed, but then you have the committee who can just,

582
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 4: I don't know, flip the bed.

583
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 2: I don't like. I just don't get the explanation.

584
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 3: Yeah last night, Like you got to have a better

585
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 3: version than that.

586
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 2: And tell that's for Alabama beating intermed I don't care.

587
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 2: Iron Bull this Iron Bowl that Notre Dame beat their

588
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 2: rival by double digits this year, Like no, I thought

589
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 2: that was just a pathetic. But on brand.

590
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 1: I was a little bit surprised that Alabama moved up

591
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: in the rankings to your point after beating a not

592
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 1: a very good Auburn team. I know it's the Iron Bow,

593
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: but what's going to be really interesting here is you're

594
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: gonna have to get one. It looks like you'll probably

595
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: have one of the non power for conference teams get in.

596
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: Right now, Tulane's the highest ranked at number twenty. They

597
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: seem to be the odds on favorite to get in.

598
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: But there are crazy things that can happen this conference

599
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: championship this weekend. If BYU, for example, takes out number

600
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: four Texas Tech, that could jumple up everything.

601
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 2: Well, I think Tech Tech would still get in. It

602
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 2: would really it would probably just knock Notre Dame out.

603
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 3: I mean that's it.

604
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think that's maybe peak chaos.

605
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Notre Dame right now.

606
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if you are a I've told Maddie

607
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 2: she can't watch Mormon Wives at all this week.

608
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: She's banned.

609
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 2: She's banned.

610
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 1: How'd that go over?

611
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 2: You should have seen the look. I couldn't grab the

612
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: pillow and head of the couch. I thought she's gonna

613
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 2: tell me to go sleep on the snow.

614
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, when those are when those episodes are over, do

615
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: you guys talk about him like, no, you discussed what

616
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: just happened and can you believe this and that? No, No,

617
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 1: she's on her own with that one.

618
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 2: Not at all, James, you want to let our audience know.

619
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 2: On the new Colts kicker.

620
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm actually looking at some of his numbers right now,

621
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 4: but yeah, Blake Groupie, former Saints kicker, made all of

622
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 4: his point after attimpts this year, so knock on wood

623
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 4: shouldn't be an issue for Sunday. However, he's eighteen of

624
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 4: twenty six on field goal attempts to this year.

625
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 3: Not that great.

626
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 4: Has had some issues inside of fifty Kevin, which you

627
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 4: pointed out, So your trading wards here, one guy, Michael Badge,

628
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 4: I just don't think you can keep your job after

629
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 4: missing three point after attemps, and especially with the effect

630
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 4: of the point after attempt from last week's game. The

631
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 4: other ones maybe you don't feel it as much. I mean, hell,

632
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 4: you missed two kicks over in Berliny you actually won

633
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 4: the game, so people kind of forget about that. That

634
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 4: one stung last week. So he's out. Blake GROUPI in

635
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 4: people yelling at me, James, this guy isn't any good either. Look,

636
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 4: kickers are not going to be that great at this

637
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 4: point in the season anybody left on the market, and honestly,

638
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 4: there's not a lot of great kickers for all thirty

639
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 4: two teams as it is, So you take what you got.

640
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 4: Will see what he brings to the table and if

641
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 4: he can stabilize that kicking unit.

642
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 2: We're surprised to see Justin Tucker's name as a workout.

643
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 4: Not at all, not even a little bit. I told

644
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 4: you where I stood in the first moments of this show.

645
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 4: I think that any profession, no sports team that actually

646
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 4: they have an ounce of character is a liar.

647
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 3: They will all.

648
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 4: Sign someone who has unsavory characteristics on unsavory past as

649
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 4: long as they can perform and play well. The number

650
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 4: one reason that Justin Tucker doesn't have a job, as

651
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 4: I said earlier, is because he was terrible when he

652
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 4: last played football.

653
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 3: Simple as that.

654
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 4: Mousa out a few years ago with Deshaun Watson. Deshaun

655
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 4: Watson got accused of many terrible things. He got the

656
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,959
Speaker 4: most guaranteed money in NFL history because the Browns at

657
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 4: the time thought he was a great quarterback.

658
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 3: It's that simple.

659
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'll say what I said earlier. I think

660
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 2: the Colts would have had legit interest in pursuing Deshan

661
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 2: Watson had he not been in the division. Houston obviously

662
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 2: would have had some reservation.

663
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 3: Freely at the point.

664
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 4: Seriously, especially with the NFL, you almost have to be

665
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 4: sitting in a jail cell for me to be like,

666
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 4: they won't sign you if you have any talent.

667
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 2: At all, and they might work out, like, let ask

668
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 2: what your release date is.

669
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm dead serious on that.

670
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 4: So yeah, I'm not gonna sit it here and act like,

671
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, like the Colts with their new female ownership,

672
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 4: they're not going to go down this route, nah man,

673
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 4: Like this is professional sports, is what they do. And

674
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 4: I'm also not gonna sit here and say that anybody

675
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 4: who's been accused of anything shouldn't get a second.

676
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 3: That's not for me to say.

677
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 4: I don't work in sports pro sports, but I do

678
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 4: know that again, everything is relative to how talented you are.

679
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,959
Speaker 2: Just a reminder, this will be the first time in

680
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 2: Colts franchise history, this is Indianapolis or Baltimore, they will

681
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 2: have had three different dudes. Assuming Blake Groupy will attempt

682
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 2: a field goal, We'll have three different guys kick field

683
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 2: goals for them in a season. We've seen two hot

684
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 2: Rod Michael Badgeley, we saw Chase McLoughlin with that advinitary

685
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 2: you know, back with Vinnie. He got a little banged

686
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 2: up there at times. Matt Stover, Martin Gramatica kicked for

687
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 2: them in a game. I am kind of reminded of

688
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 2: this when we've discussed colts and kickers over the last

689
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 2: couple of years. I'm always confused, and this goes back

690
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 2: probably three years ago now, why they didn't just keep

691
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 2: Chase McLoughlin, Like he's turned out to be a really

692
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 2: nice kicker for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and he was

693
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: this team's kicker when Venetari had some of the injury

694
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 2: issues in twenty nineteen. They kept hot Rod Rodrigo Blankenship

695
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 2: over McLaughlin. They drafted him, didn't they? Uh, No, Rogo

696
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 2: was undrafted.

697
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: Definitely didn't draft, but I thought he was late revers.

698
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 2: I always felt like Chase McLoughlin was a guy that

699
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 2: just should have been the kicker. And then obviously they

700
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 2: make the big splash for Matt Gay and that doesn't

701
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 2: work out here. So again Blake Group. He does have

702
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 2: a tie to Brian Mason special teams coordinator group. He

703
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: started his college career at Arkansas State, transferred to Notre Dame,

704
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 2: kicked for them in twenty twenty two, and Brian Mason

705
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 2: was a special teams coordinator there for the Irish. So

706
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 2: that's a little bit of the connection on that end.

707
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 2: I did appreciate Brian Mason's candor yesterday.

708
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 4: James Basically, we know we got off that zoom call

709
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 4: that Michael Badger's getting waved.

710
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, called he's missed extra points inexcusable, and he was

711
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 2: very he.

712
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 4: Said, we will explore every avenue possible to basically rectify

713
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 4: our kicking.

714
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 2: Game, including justin Tucker. You know, I mean that's you know,

715
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 2: I think if you read a little bit more to

716
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 2: that quote, that's what it means. So a five to

717
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 2: seven and fifty six pound kicker coming up on Sunday

718
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 2: for the Colts.

719
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: Just get it through the uprights, baby nodinks, no, missus,

720
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: just get it through. So all you're looking for right

721
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: there in Theanna Pacers back at home tonight, they'll be

722
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: at the Fieldhouse taken on the Denver Nuggets, and they

723
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: won two of their last three. I know they didn't

724
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: have a great first quarter, as Rick Carlisle talked about

725
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: yesterday the other night, But now they're playing one of

726
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: the more elite teams in the NBA. What what do

727
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: you expect to see at this point in time, giving

728
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: that roster, in the state that they're in, James, what's

729
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: acceptable to see from them against a team like Denver tonight?

730
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 3: What do you think because.

731
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 4: Dinver is like your that's your that's your area, neck

732
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 4: of the Woods. You know what they're going to bring.

733
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 4: So so what the what are your new hometown team

734
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 4: gonna do against them?

735
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 3: Because I think that they're going to.

736
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: Get I think the like most elite teams in the NBA,

737
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: they're pretty good at not losing games. They're spots to win,

738
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna be a tall order for

739
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers tonight, especially given where they're at right now,

740
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: and especially given the fact that who are you gonna

741
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: put up if if Jokic does play, who are gonna

742
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: put up against it?

743
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 2: Well, Yokic is probable, so I would assume he does

744
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 2: play now they are missing some notable guys. No Aaron Gordon,

745
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 2: no Christian Brown, and Jamal Murray's questionable. So you know

746
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 2: we've seen this, I mean the Pacers. Let me be

747
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: very clear, the Pacers have been hurt far more often

748
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 2: than their opponent this year. The Pacers have also walked

749
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 2: into a lot of games this season where the opponent

750
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 2: has some notable guys in street street close here.

751
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 4: So yeah, and and the Nuggets aren't playing all that

752
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 4: great now last.

753
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: Kevin's point, they they have been banged up quite a.

754
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 2: Bit well, and they're banged up again tonight. So you know,

755
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 2: there are these opportunities the Pacers have had, you know

756
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 2: Cleveland even the other night, where you know, there is

757
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: an opportunity I think to you know, make this a

758
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 2: competitive game. In particularly, I mean Jokic has been the

759
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 2: fact that he's averaging a triple double and all of

760
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 2: it is eleven or higher, like none of it's even

761
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 2: in the ten category. Is just another notch in the

762
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,800
Speaker 2: Joker belt. But again, like I said earlier, he has

763
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 2: averaged more points against the Pacers than any other team

764
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,439
Speaker 2: in his NBA career. So the meeting's only happened twice.

765
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 2: A year, but he has feasted on the Blue and Gold.

766
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: Well, well you'll be able to hear that one. If

767
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: you can't watch it or go to it, you'll be

768
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 1: able to listen to it. Here at ninety three, five

769
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 1: one or seventy five the fans six thirty, we'll have

770
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: the pregame for you, and then Mark Boyle will have

771
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,720
Speaker 1: the play by play coming up just after seven o'clock.

772
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 5: If you're looking for Jeff, he'll be in the Nane

773
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 5: jersey on the side.

774
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 2: I forgot about.

775
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: Name was a fun guy to watch.

776
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 2: It was Hilario, right, the Brazilian. She looked like a

777
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 2: dude that could beat some people up.

778
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 3: Here's one for you. Remember Kenneth for Reid.

779
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have thought of him more the rebound of men.

780
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, he used to just jump out the gym and

781
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 4: dunk on, you know. Great player to Stewart. Now I

782
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,280
Speaker 4: see beefiting corner threes. Yeah, the pisses are a problem.

783
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 4: There are a problem, especially for the Pacers.

784
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 2: By the way, on the tank front right now. The

785
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 2: lottery odds just sort of mind everybody because I don't

786
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 2: think it's maybe crystal clear. The odds aren't necessarily if

787
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 2: you have the first pick, you have the best odds,

788
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 2: and the second pick it goes down a little bit more,

789
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 2: third pick it goes down a little bit more. You know,

790
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 2: they have redone this a little bit by no means

791
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 2: I think is it a perfect system? And frankly, I

792
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 2: don't know what the perfect system is to avoid tanking.

793
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 2: But right now, the Pacers have the third worst record

794
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 2: in the NBA this season, yet they still have the

795
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 2: same odds to get the number one overall pick as

796
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 2: the team with the first worst record in the league.

797
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 2: So that's how they do it. One, two, three, I

798
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 2: want to say, it's fourteen percent odds are getting the

799
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 2: number one pick, and then if you have the fourth

800
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 2: worst record, it's like twelve percent, and if you know

801
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 2: the fifth worst record, it's like ten or nine percent.

802
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 2: So you know, again, these percentages are not massive. They

803
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 2: don't have a huge difference for and so I bring

804
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 2: all that up to say, you know, if you're a

805
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 2: fan out there, it's a quarter of the way through

806
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 2: the season, and if you're still walking that fine line

807
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 2: of like, well, I don't really want to root for losses,

808
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 2: but boy, this draft class looks kind of good. Next

809
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 2: year It's not like you need the Pacers to be

810
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 2: the worst team like you do in the NFL. In

811
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 2: the NFL purely comes down to record. So you know,

812
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 2: to draft Payton Manning, you need Jake Plumber and Arizona

813
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 2: Cardinals to go on a two minute drive late in

814
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 2: the season to win that. To draft Angel Luck, you

815
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 2: need Morey Showan Drew to pick up a huge third

816
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 2: and short late to get their number one overall pick

817
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 2: and draft Ange Luck. It's not the same in the NBA. Again,

818
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: odds are the exact same for one, two, three of

819
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 2: the worst records, and it starts to change a little

820
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 2: bit once you get to kind of four or five, six,

821
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. But just a little bit on

822
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 2: the lottery front for our tanking audience out there.

823
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 1: One of the teams in the race for that lottery too,

824
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: the Clippers. You see last night, they waved goodbye late

825
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 1: last night, after two o'clock in the morning Eastern time

826
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,399
Speaker 1: to Chris Paul, see you on down the road.

827
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, that whole situation is weird. He wasn't really playing,

828
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 4: he got sent home. I don't know if he was

829
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 4: disgruntled there. Maybe it's a financial move whatever the Clippers stink.

830
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 4: It is kind of sad to see Chris Paul go

831
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 4: out that way. I don't know if he'll play again

832
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,879
Speaker 4: in the NBA, quite frankly, because I don't know if

833
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 4: he's like just got sent home or is the contract

834
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 4: no longer a thing, because I know he've done in

835
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 4: the past where they send you home and pay you

836
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 4: but you're tatnally under contract still. So a baz our situation,

837
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 4: a sad ending if this is the end for.

838
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: They didn't know were in his future endeavors in their

839
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: statement last night. He'spent a great it was a great

840
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: part of the Clippers for a long time. We appreciated him.

841
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 1: Good luck.

842
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 4: He might be their best player in their history. Seriously,

843
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,280
Speaker 4: so SOEs the thought there he's going to join a contender.

844
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 4: I don't know, because I remember a couple of years ago,

845
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 4: I want to say, Houston sent John wallhome but he

846
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,879
Speaker 4: was under contract still, so he couldn't really sign anywhere else.

847
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 4: They just said, hey, we just don't want to give

848
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 4: you the we don't want to use a roster spot

849
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 4: on you. We'll just pay you the money type of thing.

850
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 4: And if that's the case for Chris Paul then he

851
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 4: wouldn't be able to go anywhere else. I just don't know.

852
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 4: I guess we'll get more information on it, but very bizarre.

853
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 4: And also to do it in the middle of the night,

854
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 4: it's crazy too. I mean we've seen these moves made

855
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 4: all the time at regular times of the day. This

856
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 4: would be like if the Bucks did that to Damian

857
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 4: Lillard when they waved and stretched them to get Miles certa.

858
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,879
Speaker 4: At least they did during business hours. That was kind

859
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:34,280
Speaker 4: of crazy.

860
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: We did have a question about Spencer Schrader Colts kicker

861
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,760
Speaker 2: his status that was a pretty severe It was broken

862
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,240
Speaker 2: leg great and at toorn.

863
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 3: ACL Is that correct?

864
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 4: No, I believe it was ACL and mcl. His leg

865
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 4: wasn't broken. It was a couple of different ligaments in

866
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 4: the knee though, So yeah, he won't be kicking again

867
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 4: until next year, well into next year.

868
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,839
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, tough, tough, tough stot. But anyway, if

869
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 1: you want some NBA could be a pretty entertaining basketball game,

870
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 1: depending on all who shows out and plays. Tonight, the

871
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: Pacers at the field House taken on the Denver and

872
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you more about that coming up

873
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 1: in a few minutes, but coming up next Stephen Holder

874
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 1: covers the Indianapolis Colts ESPN dot com. He'll stop by

875
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,879
Speaker 1: next on ninety three five and one on seven five fifty.

876
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,919
Speaker 1: Good morning, walking into the middle of the week, because

877
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: we get you ready to go for a week fourteen

878
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: of the National Football League. The Indianapolis Colts right now

879
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,439
Speaker 1: sitting there with the record of eight and four. They've

880
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: already had their bye week and now they take on

881
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars and James Boyd. It's for nothing less

882
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: than first place in the AFC South. We talked about

883
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 1: this earlier. If I'd have said that to you back

884
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 1: in the middle of August, you'd have been like, oh, okay,

885
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,439
Speaker 1: cults are doing pretty well. And they were doing well,

886
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 1: but now they've lost three of their last four and

887
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: they got a brutal schedule upcoming. How's everybody feeling now?

888
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: On a scale of one to hundred for optimism.

889
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 4: Optimism once to one hundred, Yeah, we should have like

890
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 4: a fraudulent scale because that's what it feels like we

891
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,879
Speaker 4: should be measuring this team up against. But if I'm

892
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,720
Speaker 4: kind of be optimist stick, I'll put it maybe forty

893
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 4: out of one hundred man thirty five going.

894
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 1: To jacks Wow, it is Jacksonville. Let's check in with

895
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: our next guest, who joins us this morning, up bright

896
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: and early in twenty degree weather. I don't know if

897
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 1: you're sitting in a car right now, Carlin or not,

898
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: Stephen Holder, but thanks for joining us on the Payless

899
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: Liquors hotline.

900
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 3: He ain't outside here all right, he got heat.

901
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: You see the sympathy you're getting the big guy.

902
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 8: I'm trying to delay going outside as long as possible.

903
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the man is doing this from the bus stop.

904
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: He ain't outside.

905
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:35,280
Speaker 8: Well, no, I'm not in the car. That will be soon,

906
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 8: but I'm going to have a remote start. It is

907
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 8: the best eventure ever for someone from Florida. Let me

908
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:40,839
Speaker 8: tell you.

909
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: From someone from anywhere, I'll tell you that as well.

910
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 1: So I'll ask you the same question. What would your

911
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: your optimism level have been a month ago for the

912
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: Colts as opposed to what it is now.

913
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 8: Oh, a month ago I had him winning twelve games.

914
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 8: A month ago, I mean, and I big. That was

915
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:05,919
Speaker 8: like a very realistic prediction. You know, look, they might

916
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 8: still They're not that far away from winning ten or

917
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 8: eleven now or even But I just think the trajectory

918
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 8: is such that it makes it hard to be optimistic.

919
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 8: And it's not as if we're just being negative. I

920
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:26,239
Speaker 8: think that's the thing to kind of highlight we're not

921
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 8: just being negative for the sake of being negative. I mean,

922
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 8: I can certainly do that, like believe me, I'm very

923
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 8: accomplished at that, But that's not what this is. I mean,

924
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 8: I think we're just watching and reacting to what we

925
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 8: are seeing, and the injuries are such that it does

926
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 8: complicate things for them. But I believe the Savarius Wards

927
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 8: who said this, they do have everything in front of them.

928
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 8: They have to do the job, but they still have

929
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 8: everything that they wanted to accomplish. They still can technically,

930
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 8: but again, do we think they'll actually get there?

931
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 2: Stephen, were you surprised to see Justin Tucker's name on

932
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 2: the Colts trial list yesterday?

933
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 8: Not terribly surprised. I mean, I think we know just

934
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 8: based on how Michael Badgeley performs that the pickings of Slim,

935
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 8: that's just what it is. You know, you get to

936
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 8: week what do we week fourteen? And any position when

937
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 8: you're talking about the free agents that are available, I

938
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 8: mean You're scraping pretty far down in the barrel at

939
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 8: that point, and that's just what it is. And I

940
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 8: just think the Colts didn't have a lot to choose from.

941
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 8: It doesn't mean they were really inclined to sign him.

942
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 8: I think the other thing is you want some competition

943
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 8: in a workout, right, so he is certainly somebody who

944
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 8: could provide that. I don't know how close they came

945
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 8: to signing him. I think the assessment was that he

946
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 8: still has something in the tank, because I know a

947
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 8: lot of people have questioned that, and me included. They

948
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 8: felt like there was something there, But I just don't

949
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 8: know if the juice is worth the squeeze. Personally, I'm

950
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 8: not making a judgment on what he did or didn't do,

951
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 8: because who the hell knows. But the guy was suspended

952
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 8: for ten games after an NFL investigation. They found some reason.

953
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 8: You would think to do that. Do you really need

954
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 8: that headache among all the other things you're dealing with,

955
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 8: would be my response to that.

956
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 1: Steven Older joining us now on the payless Liquors hot line,

957
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: moving forward, now going into a place that has not

958
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: been kind to this team for the last decade. Twenty

959
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,799
Speaker 1: fourteen so the last time they were able to get

960
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: a win in Jacksonville, what makes you make the case

961
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: for it'll be different this time because the Colts.

962
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 8: Well, I think it's a thing to do. I can't.

963
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 8: I don't know if I can. I will say that

964
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 8: the case is they're desperate. And I remember earlier this

965
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,879
Speaker 8: year I was talking to Zire Franklin and I said

966
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 8: to him, like, you know, you've had teams that have

967
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 8: kind of gotten off some good starts before in his

968
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 8: time here, and I think it was Leaven like twenty

969
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 8: nineteen for example. He brought up I think they were

970
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 8: five and two that year, and you know, so we

971
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 8: were using that as an example. I'm like, well, what's

972
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 8: going to be different this time because you didn't finish

973
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 8: the job any of those other times. And he's like,

974
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 8: you know what, last year's team I wouldn't have had

975
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 8: I wouldn't have had a lot of faith that we

976
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:39,959
Speaker 8: would finish the job because I feel like this team

977
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 8: is different. And he just said, there's just a different

978
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 8: mentality this year. Now. I think, given what's happened in

979
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,839
Speaker 8: the last four weeks, you know, there's a lot of

980
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 8: room to question what he said in that conversation. Right,

981
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 8: but here's a chance to prove it. Go prove it. Okay,

982
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 8: show us you're different. This is your chance if they

983
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,240
Speaker 8: do this. That they exercised one demon right in winning

984
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 8: in week one, which let's not underestimate what sort of

985
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 8: an eight hundred pound gorilla that was. This is the

986
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 8: other one. So go show us, and this would be

987
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,799
Speaker 8: the win of all wins. To win in Jacksonville under

988
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 8: the circumstances. I mean, that would be huge.

989
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 4: Let's see Steven looking at the offense. I know a

990
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 4: lot of the talk has been about Daniel Jones and

991
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,919
Speaker 4: his fractured fibula, and he's playing through it. I happen

992
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 4: to believe he's not been the number one problem for

993
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 4: this offense. But when you look at the offense as

994
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 4: a whole, why do you think we've seen such a

995
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,320
Speaker 4: drop off from the juggernaut they were to the first

996
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 4: eight games of the year. I think it was at

997
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,319
Speaker 4: like maybe thirty two thirty three points a game to

998
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 4: the last four being around I believe like twenty points

999
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:53,959
Speaker 4: a game.

1000
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 8: I mean, I think it's a combination of a lot

1001
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 8: of things. The execution overall needs to be better, the

1002
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 8: wide receivers didn't have a good game on Sunday against Houston.

1003
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:08,439
Speaker 8: That is unquestionable. Josh Downals, Michael Pittman could have been better.

1004
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 8: Alec Parris I think is probably holding up his end

1005
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 8: of the bargain, but I think overall they needed to

1006
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 8: be better. I think the offensive line. Look, those were

1007
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 8: some tough matchups, but your center cannot get bull rushed

1008
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 8: into the quarterback by a defensive end, which literally happened.

1009
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 8: And it's just one example. Okay, that's just one example

1010
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 8: of them just getting just killed in individual matchups that

1011
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 8: can't happen. The blitzes are a problem again. Houston doesn't

1012
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 8: blitz that much. It appears they blitzed a lot more

1013
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 8: in that game. And you know why because they have

1014
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 8: a compromise quarterback. And I think I will take a

1015
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 8: little bit of disagreement there. I will say this. I

1016
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 8: think Daniel Jones is doing a great job given all

1017
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 8: of the available evident and the situation that he is in.

1018
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 8: That is a it's got to be a painful injury, okay,

1019
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 8: but he is compromised. He is. It is a one

1020
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,800
Speaker 8: hundred percent true and that is affecting the play calling.

1021
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:16,760
Speaker 8: He got outside of the pocket one time on Sunday.

1022
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 8: That is not his game. Part of his game and

1023
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,479
Speaker 8: part of the reason he's here is because he can move,

1024
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 8: and right now he cannot. So you have Shane Steiken

1025
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 8: and Jim Bob Couter working with an abbreviated playbook and

1026
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 8: that's having an effect even on Jonathan Taylor because there's

1027
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 8: no threat in the RPO. Not that they were running

1028
00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 8: quarterback runs anyway, but you at least have to account

1029
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 8: for him getting outside, throwing on the run, all of

1030
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:46,400
Speaker 8: those things. It makes it easier for the defense, and

1031
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 8: I think that is compromising them right now, there is

1032
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 8: no question about it. And the defenses are reacting with

1033
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 8: a lot of pressure and they have to end up

1034
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,280
Speaker 8: with quick throws and those are not very productive.

1035
00:47:58,480 --> 00:47:59,359
Speaker 3: You know what's crazy, Steve.

1036
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 4: When I was looking at game from last week, and

1037
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken, I believe Dale Jones, who a

1038
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago had the crazy nineteen yard run

1039
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 4: on third and twenty one in Berlin to help save

1040
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 4: that game and win that game in overtime. Sunday's game,

1041
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 4: the guy I believe had one carry technically for one yard,

1042
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 4: and I believe it's when he fumbled the snap, he

1043
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,280
Speaker 4: don't want it to get it back, So that should

1044
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,399
Speaker 4: let you know right there, and kind of piggybacks off

1045
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 4: what you were saying about how different he looks compared

1046
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,279
Speaker 4: to how he was a month ago, and how the

1047
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 4: Colts keeps saying there's no restrictions.

1048
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, there are.

1049
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, And I think it's not about you know, how

1050
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,280
Speaker 8: he looks, that's not really the issue. I mean, he's

1051
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 8: he's making do with what he has and doing a

1052
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 8: great job under the circumstances. I think both things can

1053
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 8: be true, right, Like I remember tweeting this the other

1054
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,759
Speaker 8: day about some of this topic, and some of the

1055
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 8: responses took offense. It's say, well, I mean, how are

1056
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,959
Speaker 8: you going to bass this guy? He's got a broken leg?

1057
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 8: I know, that's the point. He got a broken freaking

1058
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 8: leg and he cannot play the same way. Like, that's

1059
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 8: the point. Look, he given given all the pressure they

1060
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 8: have faced in the last couple of weeks. If he

1061
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 8: were healthy, how do you think he would have reacted

1062
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,840
Speaker 8: to that pressure much differently? Right, he would have escaped

1063
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 8: the pocket a lot more. He's not trying to escape

1064
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 8: the pocket. He's just trying to find anybody, somebody he

1065
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 8: can throw the ball to, whether it's complete or not,

1066
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,719
Speaker 8: just so he doesn't take the sack. That's what he's

1067
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 8: doing right now. And in some cases he's just throwing

1068
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 8: a ball in the dirt, which is just not Daniel Jones.

1069
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 8: That's really not what he's trying to do out there.

1070
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,120
Speaker 8: So there's no question if you look at it, in

1071
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,360
Speaker 8: his totality, he is compromised. But I don't have an

1072
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 8: alternative for them because this is what they got. They

1073
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 8: don't have it. They don't have another option. For a second,

1074
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 8: I don't want to hear about Riley Leonard and no

1075
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:54,319
Speaker 8: offense O KD.

1076
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:57,880
Speaker 2: Not that you trust me, none, none taken as you

1077
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,919
Speaker 2: know full wealth. You're such a hater even hold their ESPN.

1078
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,800
Speaker 8: I love Riley Leonard. I love him as the Scout

1079
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 8: team quarterback.

1080
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,440
Speaker 2: Respective run. There was a reason why he was puking

1081
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 2: after the opening drive of the Ohio State National title

1082
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 2: game that you can't duplicate that in the NFL. Steven

00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,719
Speaker 2: hold it from ESPN with to sear payless Slickers hot line,

1084
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 2: I guess kind of sticking to that general area, I'll

1085
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:22,359
Speaker 2: throw a little hypothetical at you better chance we see

1086
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 2: Sauce Gardner play in the month of December or Anthony

1087
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 2: Richardson in the month of December.

1088
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:36,560
Speaker 8: I I think Sauce Gardner. I just think that there's

1089
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 8: just been no momentum toward getting Anthony Richardson back out there.

1090
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 8: And I guess I'm not surprised. I mean, there was

1091
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 8: always kind of a question about whether he would come back.

1092
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,760
Speaker 8: I think we never got a straight answer on whether

1093
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 8: they expected him back. I mean, I think there was

1094
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 8: hope that they would get him back, but there was

1095
00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 8: really no definitive answer when when we asked that, which

1096
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 8: has been asked many times, right, uh, there has been

1097
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,959
Speaker 8: I thought a very specific answer about Sauce. I mean,

1098
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 8: you know, we'll see it's not written in blood. But

1099
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 8: but I do think they seem pretty confident about him

1100
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 8: and the Forest Buckner, for example. I'm interested to see

1101
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 8: how close the Forest Buckner is when we get to

1102
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 8: practice today, Like is he is he in the mix?

1103
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,760
Speaker 3: You know, I don't still one game out yet, one.

1104
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:28,759
Speaker 8: More week, one more week, but like you know, I

1105
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 8: saw him. I saw him in Kansas City. He was

1106
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 8: in the locker room in good spirits, he said, like

1107
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 8: he's getting close. You know, he seemed really optimistic there,

1108
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:38,920
Speaker 8: and I don't know. We'll see, But my point is

1109
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 8: I can I can show you very specific feedback we've

1110
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 8: gotten on him Sauce Gardner, et cetera. We have not

1111
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 8: gotten that on Anthony Richardson. And I just think that

1112
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,320
Speaker 8: situation is so delicate when you're talking about a facial

1113
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,839
Speaker 8: injury of the nature that he had, that I don't

1114
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 8: know if it's worth it, if there's any risk there.

1115
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 8: You know, it's just not worth it.

1116
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, I think you laid that out pretty

1117
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 2: much in the same boat that I would. I will

1118
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 2: note and feel free to if you guys saw otherwise

1119
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,319
Speaker 2: in Kansas City. I thought Sunday was the first time

1120
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 2: we've seen Richardson on the sidelines since the injury. Is

1121
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 2: that correct? Did you guys se him Kansas City?

1122
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,120
Speaker 8: I did not see him in Kansas City. I don't

1123
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 8: know that he's traveled with them at all. So that's

1124
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:24,719
Speaker 8: a good point. You know, we're starting to see him

1125
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 8: around the facility morning, right, And again.

1126
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,720
Speaker 2: I'm just bringing that up. I'm not saying he's gotten

1127
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,280
Speaker 2: out to practice. I'm just simply saying from a in person,

1128
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 2: we have seen him, frankly more than we saw him

1129
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,120
Speaker 2: the first whatever two three weeks after the injury.

1130
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:40,359
Speaker 8: I would say, I think here's why. I think that's

1131
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 8: an important thing to mention though, because for the first

1132
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 8: I don't know, several weeks, we never even saw him, Okay,

1133
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,279
Speaker 8: I mean he was like at home to a to

1134
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 8: a large degree, I think because as I as I did,

1135
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 8: I mean I didn't do a lot, but as I

1136
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 8: did a little bit of research on orbital fractures. I mean,

1137
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,720
Speaker 8: the diagnosis and the recommendations. I should say, the medical

1138
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 8: recommendations are like, don't even like lift a heavy box literally,

1139
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 8: you know, because any sort of strenuous effort can can

1140
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,000
Speaker 8: have an effect on the injury.

1141
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 3: Don't sneeze, I mean, isn't that one of those things?

1142
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:22,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, don't sneeze. Yes, cough, don't cough too hard. That's

1143
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 8: literally part of the actual medical recommendations when you have

1144
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 8: an orbital fracture. So I want people to understand just

1145
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 8: how severe in a situation that is. Yeah, I don't think.

1146
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 8: I don't think we'll see them again.

1147
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: Man, from pregame collisions to rubber bands breaking off in

1148
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 1: a weight room. Man, I hope that's not the kind

1149
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 1: of stuff that defines this cold season when it's all

1150
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:48,440
Speaker 1: said and done.

1151
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,759
Speaker 8: Steven, I mean, Lizen, what a year though, Think about it, right,

1152
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 8: I mean that you've got the Shavarius Ward in his situation.

1153
00:53:56,160 --> 00:54:01,760
Speaker 8: You've got Daniel Jones is rolling having a Peyton Manning

1154
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 8: like season statistically, and then he has a broken fibulaer

1155
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:09,399
Speaker 8: because how I don't know. I mean, it's just one

1156
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,720
Speaker 8: thing after another. Divorce. Buckner's hurt. You trade for Sauce

1157
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:16,680
Speaker 8: Gardner two games in he does this. I mean they

1158
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 8: haven't gotten any breaks. I won't give them that. They're

1159
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,240
Speaker 8: not the only team with injuries. That is very clear.

1160
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 8: Joe Burrow and the Bengals could tell you all about that.

1161
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:30,919
Speaker 8: But I mean, for all of that to happen this year,

1162
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 8: of all years, it hurts, There's no question about it.

1163
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: Steven, Stay warm, have a good day. We'll talk to

1164
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,000
Speaker 1: you again soon. I know these two guys will see

1165
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: a little bit later on today. But I'll run into

1166
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:40,840
Speaker 1: you in a press box somewhere.

1167
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:43,640
Speaker 8: All right. I'm starting to remote start right now.

1168
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,920
Speaker 1: Go get it, man, gotta remind him. Thanks buddy, Stephen

1169
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 1: Holder joining us on the Paylesslikers Hotline this morning. It

1170
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,279
Speaker 1: is starting to feel, gentlemen, a little bit like a

1171
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 1: playoff game this weekend, isn't it.

1172
00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1173
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:55,400
Speaker 3: You know what.

1174
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 4: Kenny Moore mentioned that after the game, Kevin, when I

1175
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 4: was in the locker room, he said, he feels like

1176
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:05,439
Speaker 4: this team has already been in a playoff mode since

1177
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,319
Speaker 4: the bye week, since coming back from the bye week,

1178
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 4: and if you look at their schedule and really how

1179
00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,759
Speaker 4: things have taken out since then, Yeah, you're playing for

1180
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 4: your playoff life right now. You have no wiggle room anymore,

1181
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:17,839
Speaker 4: you have no luxury. The number one seed is gone.

1182
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,839
Speaker 4: You're not getting that. You have basically the AFC South

1183
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 4: title feels like on the line this week. Yeah, you

1184
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 4: have to be in playoff mode. This is do or die.

1185
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 2: So far not good in the playoff mode.

1186
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 5: And I'm gonna say you'd be eliminated if you were

1187
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 5: in playoff most you'd be sitting at home, you know what.

1188
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 4: I was going through it though, And this is a

1189
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 4: teaser first story to come out later today. Looking at

1190
00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:43,399
Speaker 4: the last four years, excluding this year, the last four

1191
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:47,960
Speaker 4: years of the playoff drought, they have folded every single time.

1192
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:49,799
Speaker 2: Well and it goes back to Chris ballad at the

1193
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 2: start of the year. I guess the end of last

1194
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:54,320
Speaker 2: season is probably the better way to put it. Technically,

1195
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 2: the press conference occurred in twenty twenty five, but one

1196
00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:01,240
Speaker 2: of the biggest I guess shocks that I had walking

1197
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,720
Speaker 2: away from that season any press conference last year James

1198
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:08,799
Speaker 2: was how brutally honestly Chris Ballard said at a couple

1199
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 2: of different iterations at press conference, our inability to win

1200
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,400
Speaker 2: critical games late in seasons is because we don't have

1201
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:21,480
Speaker 2: enough tough guys. You know, when you rank insults you

1202
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,360
Speaker 2: can have for a football team or a football player

1203
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 2: in the NFL calling out the toughness of your play.

1204
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 2: And to be fair to Ballard, he did preface by

1205
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:31,360
Speaker 2: saying that is on me. I'm the one that puts

1206
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 2: the roster together. Now, okay, So who are the new faces?

1207
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:41,400
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, Mooney, Ward, Tyler, Warren, cam bind them, you know,

1208
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 2: obviously sas Gardner's situation is what it is right now. Like,

1209
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 2: so those are some of the I guess, quote unquote

1210
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 2: tough guy you know, I mean, those are the new

1211
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 2: guys that you've gone out and found. So we'll see

1212
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 2: how because right now, to Mark's point and James you

1213
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,440
Speaker 2: just said it, they're ze and two in the playoff games.

1214
00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 2: If you want to continue the Kennymore statement. So yeah,

1215
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 2: I mean Sundays just mess. By the way, I've never

1216
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 2: had a car with the remote start? Is it as

1217
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:06,360
Speaker 2: good as it sounds.

1218
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,680
Speaker 1: I just got one. I'm looking forward to it. We'll see.

1219
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,480
Speaker 4: I have it, but I don't use it because I

1220
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 4: live in an apartment building. So I feel like I can't.

1221
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,240
Speaker 4: What am I gonna do? Like come downstairs four flights

1222
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 4: of stairs and then hit the thing and then go

1223
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 4: back up.

1224
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 3: Shoot it?

1225
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:18,120
Speaker 1: Just do it through the window.

1226
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,560
Speaker 3: Where are my Where my window is in my apartment?

1227
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 4: It faces the other side of like our building, So

1228
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 4: like knock.

1229
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 2: On the person's apartment that has that window across the hall.

1230
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:30,959
Speaker 3: Hey, Gary, I fire this thing up. Really, I haven't

1231
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:31,280
Speaker 3: used it.

1232
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,240
Speaker 1: Can I start getting the Seinfeld situation going in your building?

1233
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:34,560
Speaker 1: Right there?

1234
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,560
Speaker 4: Say? Oh, shout out to Honda's baby Ma. Honda silly

1235
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 4: starts up every time there you go.

1236
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 9: Uh.

1237
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 2: It was a long scrape session for me and the

1238
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:42,479
Speaker 2: old Nissan Rug today.

1239
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1240
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: I did take the Ford expedition with one hundred and

1241
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 1: sixty two thousand miles on it to work this morning

1242
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: and that was nothing but ice and snow on the How.

1243
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 4: Many miles in the car before you say, hey, I'm

1244
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 4: my money to go get the new one?

1245
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 3: Still just driving until it stops. It's still going.

1246
00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:00,680
Speaker 2: We traded our Honda court in a few months back

1247
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 2: and it had I think close to two hundred.

1248
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:04,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's the number.

1249
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 2: And I was ready running on the ground. But then

1250
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:07,600
Speaker 2: we had a third kid.

1251
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 3: I don't want to get strained with thirteen.

1252
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:10,600
Speaker 1: They have that changes, right.

1253
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, the size at standpoint here one thing to

1254
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 2: note about, and I don't necessarily I don't know, maybe.

1255
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 3: Kevin following all the rules.

1256
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,080
Speaker 4: Man back in my day, Kevin me being the littlest

1257
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,480
Speaker 4: of the bunch. That was always James. It's still just

1258
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,800
Speaker 4: you just throw for James on somebody's laugh and we're

1259
00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 4: we're riding in this in this.

1260
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 2: Four door car. I don't know.

1261
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 4: CPS would love that. I know they would not from me.

1262
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,200
Speaker 4: You're your parenting better than mine did.

1263
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:39,760
Speaker 2: Well, we'll get amazing called jags streak in Jacksonville, maybe

1264
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 2: for five minutes of one of these days this week.

1265
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 2: But you know, I've said before one of the consistent

1266
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 2: aspects to this streak has been I think Jacksonville's D

1267
00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 2: line has owned your O line, if you want to

1268
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 2: look at it. One thing also to note is the

1269
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 2: play of Trevor Lawrence lately, and I guess in regards

1270
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 2: to Sunday, I found this kind of amazing. Like if

1271
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 2: I just told you who would rather have as your quarterback,

1272
00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones or Trevor Lawrence, will your answer.

1273
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 1: Be probably Trevor Lawrence right out today.

1274
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're gonna go play a game on Sunday.

1275
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 3: Give me Trevor. Give me the guy who doesn't have

1276
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:16,520
Speaker 3: a broken leg.

1277
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 2: It is kind of crazy, I would agree. Last week

1278
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 2: was Trevor Lawrence's first game all season with a rating

1279
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,480
Speaker 2: over one hundred, and Daniel Jones has got nine of

1280
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:33,520
Speaker 2: those games. Wow, Like this season you would say Daniel Jones.

1281
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,760
Speaker 2: But yet you know, I probably would be with you, guys.

1282
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,040
Speaker 2: But again, just to go with Lawrence here for a second.

1283
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:43,360
Speaker 2: In the last few years, he has torched the Colts

1284
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 2: in these matchups. And again, Lawrence has been a very

1285
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:47,800
Speaker 2: polarizing quarterback.

1286
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:47,920
Speaker 8: Right.

1287
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,320
Speaker 2: It's heavily debated almost annually. You know, should the Jag

1288
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 2: stick with them. Is Liam Cohen gonna stick with them?

1289
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:54,920
Speaker 2: Are they going to draft the quarterback high? The ended

1290
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,320
Speaker 2: up obviously trading up to draft Travis Hunter, who is

1291
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,760
Speaker 2: out for the season. But you know, that is something

1292
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 2: that has been a huge advantage for Jacksonville over these

1293
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,080
Speaker 2: last three years. If you look at it, Lawrence's numbers

1294
01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 2: against the Colts are astronomically better than his career average.

1295
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 2: So on the list of things you need to do

1296
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 2: on Sunday, making Trevor Lawrence look like kind of the

1297
01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 2: blot Trevor Lawrence, I think a lot of people label

1298
01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 2: him as and as he's been this year, one game

1299
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 2: over a hundred rating, that's not very good. That is

1300
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 2: a muss.

1301
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 1: And to be clear, James, I are both just saying

1302
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 1: because of the broken lake for Daniel Jones right now,

1303
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 1: right yeah.

1304
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 4: If he didn't have a broken leg, I need you

1305
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 4: to find the audio from SpongeBob when the guy goes

1306
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 4: my leg, because that's what I think of whenever I

1307
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 4: talk about Dale's only descibula, because yeah, I'm gonna roll

1308
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 4: with the dude who probably has more mobility, less pain,

1309
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:46,919
Speaker 4: things of that nature. But even then I still think

1310
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 4: it's a closer conversation because of what Kevin alluded to,

1311
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 4: and that's the up and down nature of how Trevor

1312
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 4: Lawrence is playing only this year, but just in years past.

1313
01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: All right, coming up at a moment, we're going to

1314
01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 1: take a look at a huge weekend of sports here

1315
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 1: in downtown. What it means for the city, what it

1316
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 1: means for the teams around here, all of that. But

1317
01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:05,400
Speaker 1: right now, let's check it down.

1318
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 7: Bye morning, checkdown on nuety sweet five and one.

1319
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 1: Mark, give that to me again because it factors into

1320
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:23,600
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen this weekend. He's rolling them all together

1321
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 1: there for you.

1322
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying, man, That's what I think of,

1323
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 4: because I mean, how are you playing with the broken les?

1324
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,120
Speaker 3: How the Daniel Jones man something? His dude in the NFL.

1325
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 1: Colts will be playing at one o'clock on Sunday afternoon

1326
01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:38,080
Speaker 1: on the road in Jacksonville. Kevin, remind me when was

1327
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:40,480
Speaker 1: the last time the Colts won a game in Jacksonville?

1328
01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:44,480
Speaker 2: Twenty fourteen? Again, they're leading tacklers to Quel Jackson, Greg Poehler,

1329
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:48,919
Speaker 2: larn Landry uh Trent Richardson was in the game, Josh

1330
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 2: McNairy was in the game, Andrew Luck was outstanding. Reggie

1331
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 2: Wayne now coaches the Colts. He played in that game. Yeah,

1332
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 2: it's been a while, well the Colt Henny the jackson

1333
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 2: You guys got any glowing Chad Henny memories. I feel

1334
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 2: like Chad Henry. Chad Henney won a Super Bowl ring

1335
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 2: with Mahomes a few years ago playing Michigan. Michigan Man.

1336
01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:14,080
Speaker 1: Yes, that'll start at one o'clock, airtime, ten o'clock for

1337
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,600
Speaker 1: the pregame right here with JMV and then Matt Taylor

1338
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: in the game gets you going right up until kickoff

1339
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 1: and James. They will have a brand new placekicker when

1340
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: they played the Jacksonville Jaguars Sunday afternoon.

1341
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:29,880
Speaker 4: Blake Groupie quite the last name. He is someone who

1342
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,120
Speaker 4: previously picked kicked for the Saints, got released actually, I

1343
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:36,600
Speaker 4: believe last week because he was missing too many field goals.

1344
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 3: He is eighteen twenty season field goals this year.

1345
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,800
Speaker 4: However, unlike Michael Badgley who missed three pats point after

1346
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:45,840
Speaker 4: attempts this year, Blake group he has not missed any.

1347
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 4: So I guess you're trading off the uncertainty on the gimmes,

1348
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,960
Speaker 4: which is the point after attempts versus perhaps some of

1349
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 4: the inconsistency he has from field goals standpoint.

1350
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 1: All right, so that game comes your way Sunday afternoon,

1351
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 1: and of course the Indiana Pacers at home tonight at

1352
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 1: the field House. They'll be taking on the Denver Nuggets.

1353
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 1: And we think that we're gonna see Nicole Yoakic tonight.

1354
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 1: Kevin looks like it.

1355
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,520
Speaker 2: He's probable. I mean, typically guys are always playing on

1356
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 2: they're probable. I guess he could get downgrade at some

1357
01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:17,000
Speaker 2: point today. But yeah, Jokich averages most points of any

1358
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,440
Speaker 2: team in the league. It is the Pacers that tops

1359
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,040
Speaker 2: that list, so he is feasted in this matchup. They

1360
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:27,200
Speaker 2: are without Aaron Gordon, Christian Brown, and Jamal Murray's questionable,

1361
01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:31,280
Speaker 2: so they could be down a couple of different guys here.

1362
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:34,400
Speaker 2: So see if the Pacers can you know, get one

1363
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:36,280
Speaker 2: of these more in the kind of the marquee category.

1364
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:40,320
Speaker 2: You know, we'll see if the home crowd provides for

1365
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 2: them tonight. All right.

1366
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:44,440
Speaker 1: That will be on the fan tonight six thirty airtime,

1367
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:47,600
Speaker 1: seven o'clock start against the Denver Nuggets. Last night on

1368
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:51,320
Speaker 1: the fan, The Butler Bulldogs continued their winning ways. They've

1369
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:53,480
Speaker 1: got a four game streak, going five and zero at

1370
01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:56,439
Speaker 1: home at the field House. They were an eighty four

1371
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 1: sixty eight winner over Eastern Michigan last night. Finley busje

1372
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:03,240
Speaker 1: It continues to light it up twenty nine points last night.

1373
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 1: Michael Lajai had nineteen points and thirteen rebounds. Butler will

1374
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,400
Speaker 1: play Saturday at the Fieldhouse against Boise And I'll tell

1375

Speaker 1: you what you know who's going to be there at

1386
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,200
Speaker 1: by Purdue on their road and want to say terrific, Kevin.

1387
01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:52,400
Speaker 1: They didn't punt on a road game in December in

1388
01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:53,240
Speaker 1: conference play.

1389
01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. I said all day FJA Rutgers terrible, Purdue should

1390
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,439
Speaker 2: handle business. And they did a game for ten minutes,

1391
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:02,960
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes uts and then big late half flurry there.

1392
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 2: Jakari Harris, who has I think struggled a little bit

1393
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,320
Speaker 2: of this season. Nice work from him off the bench

1394
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,560
Speaker 2: for Purdue. And they've got a huge one coming up Saturday,

1395
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 2: Iowa State inside of Mackie Arena. So that is a

1396
01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,840
Speaker 2: marquee non conference game for the Boilers. I always say

1397
01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 2: it's at a nice start to this season.

1398
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 1: They got an eighty one sixty five victory. The final

1399
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:25,640
Speaker 1: score there. Also, Notre Dame winning at home close went

1400
01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:28,480
Speaker 1: over Missouri seventy six seventy one. You were up late

1401
01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:29,680
Speaker 1: watching that last night.

1402
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:30,040
Speaker 8: Up late.

1403
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,600
Speaker 2: Marcus Burton, big time hoops. Cole Surta hits one from

1404
01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 2: Plymouth late man. I went nuts. I'd rather have Notre

1405
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:40,520
Speaker 2: Dame beat TCU Friday than Notre Dame make the football playoff.

1406
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,000
Speaker 1: That's Missouri's first loss of the year.

1407
01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:47,000
Speaker 2: Insane, correct, Missouri's first loss the year. I love Notre

1408
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:47,760
Speaker 2: Dame basketball.

1409
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:50,520
Speaker 1: Indiana State also got to win last night over your riek.

1410
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:53,560
Speaker 1: Later on tonight, I you Indy will play at Detroit

1411
01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:56,960
Speaker 1: Mercy and number twenty two Indiana Kevin in the barn

1412
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:59,080
Speaker 1: taking on the Golden Gophers of Minnesota.

1413
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,880
Speaker 2: Note on Indiana that I found just amazing and it's

1414
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 2: a Darren Freese. In the start of this season, they

1415
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:09,520
Speaker 2: have scored one hundred points or more. I believe it's

1416
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:13,800
Speaker 2: three times already this season, and that is more than

1417
01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:16,440
Speaker 2: the entire Mike Woodson era.

1418
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 1: Which is just wild. It's insane to think about.

1419
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, ten and a half point favorite, and they've been good.

1420
01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:24,920
Speaker 2: They didn't kill us three straight there?

1421
01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:25,360
Speaker 8: What was that?

1422
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:25,600
Speaker 9: Mark?

1423
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 1: They didn't kill us?

1424
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 2: I do miss some Mike woods in press conference.

1425
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:33,919
Speaker 3: Also tonight, still doing the ball.

1426
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 1: Stayed down the road. They'll be down in the southern

1427
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:37,360
Speaker 1: part of the state on a.

1428
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:38,640
Speaker 2: Staff NBA staff somewhere.

1429
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:40,560
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

1430
01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:43,280
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, that was his favorite mark. That was

1431
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:46,680
Speaker 2: that the cameo when the Purdue fans tried to get

1432
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:54,040
Speaker 2: Matt Painter, Maddy you get a win. Maddie was so good.

1433
01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:55,919
Speaker 2: I think one of the wilder things of the woods

1434
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,160
Speaker 2: and Arrow will be looking back, and I believe he

1435
01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:00,280
Speaker 2: had a better record against Matt Painter than Matt Painter

1436
01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:02,600
Speaker 2: had against him, which is kind of one of the

1437
01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:04,479
Speaker 2: wilder says.

1438
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:08,880
Speaker 5: He's currently the associate head coach at the Sacramento Kings.

1439
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,560
Speaker 4: Okay, get your money, then, who you just want to

1440
01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 4: play golf? They did, They're wire different man.

1441
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:17,160
Speaker 2: They get a healthy buyout.

1442
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:19,600
Speaker 3: I think the only one who like probably has done

1443
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:21,920
Speaker 3: that is it was ed or Iseron.

1444
01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 4: He's like the only one I feel like who walked

1445
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:25,560
Speaker 4: away from coaching and was like, all right, I don't

1446
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 4: have to do this again. Everyone else wants to get

1447
01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:30,240
Speaker 4: back in. Yeah, he said, pay me the money and

1448
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:32,440
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what do I'm leaving out of respect him.

1449
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:34,040
Speaker 2: People were mad with how much of golf he played

1450
01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:35,919
Speaker 2: when he was the head coach. I'm like, damn, dude,

1451
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 2: just kick up the feet and get an eighteen every day.

1452
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 1: Hey, one quick question in college football too, anybody gonna

1453
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:41,840
Speaker 1: take the job at Penn State?

1454
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:43,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's odd.

1455
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:44,560
Speaker 3: I volunteer myself.

1456
01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,240
Speaker 1: So BYU coach went is staying Colonie Sataki. They matched

1457
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 1: whatever off for Penn State was gonna have. Apparently a

1458
01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 1: bunch of uh time the church got together and said

1459
01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:57,920
Speaker 1: no whatever you need to stay, that's what we're gonna do.

1460
01:07:57,960 --> 01:07:58,240
Speaker 8: It's good.

1461
01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:00,680
Speaker 2: Tom Allen to Happy Valley, Him back there.

1462
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 1: I've heard a couple of people float that and had

1463
01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:05,080
Speaker 1: a nice year as a defensive coordinator this year.

1464
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:07,480
Speaker 2: I was kidding, to be clear, No, I.

1465
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:09,440
Speaker 1: Know, but there are people that I've suggested that is

1466
01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:13,800
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I realized, like, legit, people, I wrote it.

1467
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:16,519
Speaker 1: I think I read it twice online. But again your

1468
01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:18,720
Speaker 1: Penn State? What are you looking at now? Everybody else?

1469
01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:21,960
Speaker 2: And oh Mark, keep on going with that.

1470
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:22,400
Speaker 1: I can't.

1471
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 4: It was a three second clip, but yeah, I was like, well,

1472
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:28,360
Speaker 4: where's Urban Meyer the jazz club snapping of a tub?

1473
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:29,920
Speaker 1: I thought that too, But and I looked at that

1474
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:33,120
Speaker 1: and the chaser opening he had said he's not interested too.

1475
01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,200
Speaker 2: So well, now you have me excited that. Tom Allen

1476
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:36,840
Speaker 2: to Penn State.

1477
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 1: No, I don't think it's gonna happen.

1478
01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:40,000
Speaker 2: But well, you said you read it on the internet.

1479
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,559
Speaker 2: Everything we've read that's true.

1480
01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:45,559
Speaker 1: Just bringing it up for conversation's sake more than anything.

1481
01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 1: But uh, my point being to underscore the point that

1482
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:50,880
Speaker 1: nobody seems to want that job right now.

1483
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 4: Google AI told me that Tom Allen is the next

1484
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:54,080
Speaker 4: Penn State coach.

1485
01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:56,320
Speaker 3: It's correct.

Speaker 2: over at Lucas Oil in between games. Anything from a

1514
01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:19,840
Speaker 2: fan fest standpoint, I think a convention center usually has

1515
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:23,840
Speaker 2: some activation stuff, So downtown wise, what could fans be

1516
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:24,760
Speaker 2: looking for.

1517
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,639

Speaker 9: the Indiana Convention Center. It's going to be so much

1520
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,800

1521
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:40,200
Speaker 9: fan fests, you've seen this, but it's brand new this year.

01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,120
Speaker 9: you want to play some video games, Do you want

1525
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:49,040
Speaker 9: to do some diving catches, if you want to kick

1526
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:50,840

Speaker 9: getting ready for the big game, if you've got a

1530
01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:00,759
Speaker 9: ticket in there. If you do, you have a ticket

1531
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:04,040
Speaker 9: to the Big Ten Football Championship game, you have free

1532
01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:07,320
Speaker 9: access into fanfests. You actually got to send a separate

1533
01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:09,799

01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:22,520
Speaker 9: inside the Convention.

1538
01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:24,960
Speaker 2: Center, Dan, I don't remember last time a sporting event

Speaker 2: I've been asked more about tickets to the actual game

1540
01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:31,160
Speaker 2: here in our city than Saturday nights. I am curious.

1541
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:36,519
Speaker 2: You know, do you know, like how tickets get divided up?

1542
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:38,280
Speaker 2: You know how many I guess did Indiana get? How

1543
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,600
Speaker 2: many did Ohio State get? How does that work for

1544
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:41,760
Speaker 2: the Big Ten Championship?

1545
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:44,680
Speaker 9: You know, it's a little bit different every single year,

1546
01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:46,639
Speaker 9: and the Big Ten is the ones that handle those.

1547
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:49,240
Speaker 9: I know, like the teams get a certain amount each year,

1548
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 9: and how those are divided up, I'm not exactly sure,

1549
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 9: but like I said, this might be the hottest ticket

1550
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:55,800
Speaker 9: in town right now.

1551
01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:56,559
Speaker 8: For this game.

1552
01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 9: I mean it's one versus two, it's IU. Ohio State

1553
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:01,559
Speaker 9: hasn't been here in a couple of years. They finally

1554
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:04,519
Speaker 9: got over that hump against Michigan in one of the

1555
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:07,240
Speaker 9: big games on Saturday. So we're just really excited to

1556
01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:10,120
Speaker 9: have just such a huge crowd. We're excited for this

1557
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,840
Speaker 9: town to literally be painted red. I know that that's

1558
01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,800
Speaker 9: a metaphors sometimes, but I expect so much red downtown

1559
01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,960
Speaker 9: on Saturday, between the IU and Louisville basketball game and

1560
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:23,320
Speaker 9: then Ohio State IU for the football game.

1561
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:25,599
Speaker 1: We're doing anything with the streets. We're going to rename

1562
01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:29,680
Speaker 1: all the streets like Signetti Way or Mendoza Boulevard or

1563
01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:30,920
Speaker 1: anything like that this weekend.

1564
01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:34,840
Speaker 9: I jove downtown today and I saw a couple of

1565
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:37,240
Speaker 9: the signs are up right now. The streets signs are up.

1566
01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 9: I'm looking over at Lukasho Stadium and the signage is

1567
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:44,400
Speaker 9: going up right now on the north side of the stadium.

1568
01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:46,639
Speaker 9: So all that street signage, all that stuff that we're

1569
01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,040
Speaker 9: used to seeing the airport. I just want to shout

1570
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:51,559
Speaker 9: out our friends at the airport for everyone that's going

1571
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:53,880
Speaker 9: to be flying in for this game and hopefully everyone

1572
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:56,880
Speaker 9: could do it safely with the weather. But they they've

1573
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,360
Speaker 9: had signage up for the last couple of weeks right now,

1574
01:12:59,640 --> 01:13:01,960
Speaker 9: and think like that. So the city is going to

1575
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:03,519
Speaker 9: be decked out ready for this game.

1576
01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:07,800
Speaker 4: So Dan as someone who is so envious of what's

1577
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:09,200
Speaker 4: going to happen this week, and I have to travel

1578
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:09,920
Speaker 4: for the Coles game.

1579
01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 3: And if you can.

1580
01:13:10,400 --> 01:13:13,200
Speaker 4: Petition the league to have the Cold slip their road

1581
01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 4: game in Jacksonville to a home game so I could

1582
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:17,519
Speaker 4: be here Saturday for all the festivities by all means,

1583
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:20,600
Speaker 4: you know, do that for me. But in all seriousness,

1584
01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:23,600
Speaker 4: when you're looking at like logistically what you all have

1585
01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:26,719
Speaker 4: to do and plan for, how much planning, pre planning

1586
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:28,519
Speaker 4: goes into this and how much I don't know if

1587
01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 4: it's post playing is the right word, but how much

1588
01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:31,840
Speaker 4: does it shift when you know you're going to get

1589
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,679
Speaker 4: an influx of IU fans.

1590
01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:38,320
Speaker 9: I mean, the Big Ten has been such great partners,

1591
01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,600
Speaker 9: and we love to say here in Indianapolis that we

1592
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:42,559
Speaker 9: are been the only ones that ever host this game.

1593
01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:44,559
Speaker 9: The Big Ten Football Championship Game has only ever been

1594
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:47,160
Speaker 9: hosted in Lucas Oil Stadium, and I think it's because

1595
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:49,920
Speaker 9: we worked so hard on that pre planning process. I mean,

1596
01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:52,639
Speaker 9: we've been talking with the Big ten four months about

1597
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,000
Speaker 9: all the different iterations and how we want to make

1598
01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,160
Speaker 9: this game better. We don't just rest on our laurels.

1599
01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:59,920
Speaker 9: Even though we've hosted this game for a long time,

1600
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,599
Speaker 9: for fifteen years now, we really try to make it

1601
01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:04,720
Speaker 9: better for the student athletes, for the coaches, for the

1602
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:07,879
Speaker 9: fans every single year. So that planning happens months in advance,

1603
01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:10,080
Speaker 9: and we've been looking at the standings just like every

1604
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,920
Speaker 9: other fan, and we've been looking at a possible IU

1605
01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 9: games here, and we've been thinking about how to make

1606
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:17,439
Speaker 9: this better, how to make this for fans coming in.

1607
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:19,360
Speaker 9: We've also been thinking about Ohio State fans. Is the

1608
01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 9: first time that they've possibly been here for five years,

1609
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:23,720
Speaker 9: so they haven't been here for a while, So how

1610
01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:25,280
Speaker 9: do we make this experience.

1611
01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:25,559
Speaker 8: For them better?

1612
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:28,040
Speaker 9: And then we'll talk about that after the game, as

1613
01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:29,920
Speaker 9: well as how do we do it next year in

1614
01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:32,479
Speaker 9: the year after to continue to make this the best experience.

1615
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:34,400
Speaker 9: We put ourselves out there as the best host city

1616
01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,959
Speaker 9: in the country. This is one of those marquee weekends

1617
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,480
Speaker 9: every single year you can mark it down that Indianapolis

1618
01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 9: is hosting it and we want to put on the

1619
01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:43,720
Speaker 9: best experience possible for everyone involved.

1620
01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:46,200
Speaker 1: Well, you guys always put on a great experience. There's

1621
01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:48,080
Speaker 1: so much great stuff that's been here in the last

1622
01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:50,559
Speaker 1: several years, dating all the way back to the Super

1623
01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:54,760
Speaker 1: Bowl and All Star Games, and Championship Games, National Championship,

1624
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:57,320
Speaker 1: you name it, Final Fours, it's what we do here.

1625
01:14:57,880 --> 01:14:59,439
Speaker 1: Of all those things, I still think one of the

1626
01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:01,120
Speaker 1: most fun things we've done. My wife and I went

1627
01:15:01,160 --> 01:15:04,920
Speaker 1: to the Olympic Trials two years ago when you put

1628
01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:07,280
Speaker 1: a pool at Lucas Oil Stadium. I know we've got

1629
01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:09,240
Speaker 1: more stuff like that coming up. What are some of

1630
01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:11,400
Speaker 1: the other big events on the horizon that we need

1631
01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:12,479
Speaker 1: to keep on our radar.

1632
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 9: Yeah, in a couple of weeks, you know, I know

1633
01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:19,200
Speaker 9: some of the Boilermaker fans probably aren't loving all the Iutah,

1634
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,320
Speaker 9: But in two weeks we were hosting the Indie Class

1635
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:24,240
Speaker 9: that presented by Bush's Chili Beans over at Gambridge Fieldhouse.

1636
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:28,160
Speaker 9: That's a college basketball doubleheader. That's Purdue versus Auburn and

1637
01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:31,080
Speaker 9: then Butler versus Northwestern. That's in a couple of saturdays

1638
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:34,200
Speaker 9: over at Gambridge and then we are constantly working on

1639
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:37,880
Speaker 9: the men's Final Four coming here in the spring. We're

1640
01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:40,960
Speaker 9: also hosting a Big Ten women's basketball Championship that'll be

1641
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:43,840
Speaker 9: in March. But we're really focused on a lot of

1642
01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 9: basketball events coming up here. And there's no better state

1643
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:50,760
Speaker 9: than city to host college basketball in Indiana and Indianapolis.

1644
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:52,800
Speaker 9: Who are really looking forward to that. But all our

1645
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:55,439
Speaker 9: eyes once we get through this big weekend, are going

1646
01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,719
Speaker 9: to be focused on college basketball and we're really excited

1647
01:15:57,720 --> 01:15:58,640
Speaker 9: about it.

1648
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 1: Sounds good. Thanks for joining us this morning, Dan, We

1649
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:04,800
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Good luck this weekend, and let's see what happens. Man,

1650
01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:06,320
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot of fun one and two

1651
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 1: at the Big Ten Tournament or Big Ten Football Championship.

1652
01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:10,599
Speaker 1: I can't wait.

1653
01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 9: Hey, appreciate the time, guys. Love what you guys do.

1654
01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:14,000
Speaker 8: Keep it up.

1655
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,400
Speaker 1: Thanks Dan. It just goes on and on. There's not

1656
01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:20,240
Speaker 1: a better you hear me going this rant three times

1657
01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 1: a year. There's no better place to be in sports

1658
01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 1: than Indianapolis.

1659
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:24,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, through twenty twenty eight, I believe for the Big

1660
01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,679
Speaker 2: Ten Football Championship officially, And you know I was listening

1661
01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:29,840
Speaker 2: to Tony CD commissioner last year, and he was pretty

1662
01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:33,000
Speaker 2: adamant that from an eighty standpoint, you know, this is

1663
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:34,759
Speaker 2: where they want to be, which I thought was saying

1664
01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:39,360
Speaker 2: something considering how widespread the conferences geographically right now. By

1665
01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:41,320
Speaker 2: the way, I think we had a listener reach out

1666
01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:43,559
Speaker 2: earlier in the week thinking ticket prices will come down

1667
01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:44,840
Speaker 2: for you in Ohio state.

1668
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 1: What is it now?

1669
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:48,160
Speaker 2: Mark, good luck getting in the building for less than

1670
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,439
Speaker 2: five hundred. I mean that's where that's where you're looking

1671
01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:53,479
Speaker 2: right now. Everything is hovering now. It was out of

1672
01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:56,200
Speaker 2: un and those are way up top.

1673
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:56,400
Speaker 8: Oh.

1674
01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:57,760
Speaker 2: I mean we're talking the worst seats in the house

1675
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:01,479
Speaker 2: four hundred ish early in the week. Now it is

1676
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:04,200
Speaker 2: pretty much everything at five hundred on the secondary ticket market.

1677
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:07,240
Speaker 4: Real quick question before we go to break. Is there

1678
01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:09,360
Speaker 4: a bad seat Lucas Ohl Stadium. I've never actually gone

1679
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:12,479
Speaker 4: all the way up to the top, but most fans

1680
01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:13,679
Speaker 4: tell me they do get.

1681
01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:15,320
Speaker 3: A pretty good view of the action.

1682
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean a few times I've sat in there

1683
01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:19,479
Speaker 2: as a spectator. Yeah, like three hundred, four hundred level

1684
01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:22,080
Speaker 2: I've sat in I think is actually a really good seat.

1685
01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:25,000
Speaker 2: I've sat there actually for the National Championship, for basketball.

1686
01:17:25,400 --> 01:17:29,040
Speaker 2: A few times, James, they had to overflow seating for

1687
01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:32,439
Speaker 2: the media, like section five thirty something for the national

1688
01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:36,080
Speaker 2: title game Georgia Bama. I didn't think that was horrible,

1689
01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,800
Speaker 2: but i've you know, again, I haven't been to many

1690
01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 2: live events, but you know, when you get up to

1691
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:43,840
Speaker 2: section six hundred, you know, bring the binoculars.

1692
01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,800
Speaker 1: We for a long time we had season tickets to

1693
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:52,000
Speaker 1: the Colts games about halfway up that north end zone, Okay,

1694
01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:54,599
Speaker 1: the window there. I love those because you could see,

1695
01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,240
Speaker 1: you could literally see the plays developing and happening. And

1696
01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:02,400
Speaker 1: I liked it, enjoyed it. So I don't think there

1697
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:05,680
Speaker 1: are terrible, terrible seats at Lucas Oil. But yeah, if

1698
01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:07,320
Speaker 1: you want to sit up in the cheap seats, it's

1699
01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:09,800
Speaker 1: going to be five hundred bucks plus and it might

1700
01:18:09,840 --> 01:18:11,559
Speaker 1: even go up to six hundred by the time we

1701
01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:13,640
Speaker 1: get there, Kevin, because this has gone up one hundred

1702
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:16,360
Speaker 1: just in the last thirty six hours. So we'll see

1703
01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:19,160
Speaker 1: what happens, all right, coming up in a moment, we

1704
01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:22,759
Speaker 1: were talking about how crazy the worst fans are for cities,

1705
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:25,840
Speaker 1: and we were talking about Philadelphia yesterday, waiting to hear

1706
01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:28,720
Speaker 1: the latest for fans out there. We'll do that next

1707
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:31,960
Speaker 1: ninety three five one on something five the fans check

1708
01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:35,280
Speaker 1: it out some of the responses on the fan text

1709
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:37,479
Speaker 1: line this morning two three, nine, ten seventy and we'll

1710
01:18:37,680 --> 01:18:40,320
Speaker 1: get a winner on the Butler tickets coming up in

1711
01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:45,360
Speaker 1: a moment here, matt O, Texan Kevin the very last

1712
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:49,200
Speaker 1: show underneath the press box might be the only bad seat.

1713
01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 1: If you stand, you can't see the field. The press

1714
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:54,600
Speaker 1: box blocks your view or the field, so you have

1715
01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:57,040
Speaker 1: to sit the entire game. So there's what it sounds like,

1716
01:18:57,080 --> 01:19:00,640
Speaker 1: a horrific seat that get you get like a constructed

1717
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:02,120
Speaker 1: view price on that one.

1718
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:04,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I you know, I did overflow

1719
01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:05,920
Speaker 2: for the Super Bowl as well, and those were six

1720
01:19:06,040 --> 01:19:09,400
Speaker 2: hundred something or other and seats weren't great. But nonetheless,

1721
01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:10,040
Speaker 2: what are your.

1722
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 1: Seats at the notre INGA last year?

1723
01:19:12,840 --> 01:19:17,640
Speaker 2: Uh? Well, the that's so media sitting for that was

1724
01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:21,200
Speaker 2: like I was three thirty something, and honestly it wasn't

1725
01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:23,800
Speaker 2: too bad. I mean, you're in the corner. I was

1726
01:19:23,840 --> 01:19:26,679
Speaker 2: on the Ohio state side, so that was quite humbling,

1727
01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:30,400
Speaker 2: especially as they built that lead there. But I'm gonna

1728
01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:32,040
Speaker 2: stand by what I said earlier. In the week. I think.

1729
01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:35,320
Speaker 2: I mean, for IU fans, this is one of the

1730
01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:40,080
Speaker 2: greatest days in athletics history, and it's in the state capitol.

1731
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:44,200
Speaker 2: I'd be I get it's Ohio State, but I would

1732
01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:46,559
Speaker 2: be very surprised if we're not talking about a seventy

1733
01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 2: thirty IU split on IU side of it, if not more.

1734
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,519
Speaker 2: I mean, IU fans understandably are talking about this game

1735
01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:59,120
Speaker 2: like it's, you know, the second coming of you know

1736
01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:02,920
Speaker 2: who Hoo. State fans are like, yeah, what's the bracket?

1737
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:07,400
Speaker 2: How do we want another one? So I don't know,

1738
01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:09,320
Speaker 2: maybe I'm fans.

1739
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:12,840
Speaker 4: I think they'll be more Ohio State fans than that.

1740
01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:16,280
Speaker 4: I'm probably one more sixty five thirty five, sixty four.

1741
01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:17,960
Speaker 1: That's what I feel like sixty five.

1742
01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 4: You mentioned yesterday, Jeff, I'm with you on that one.

1743
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:22,679
Speaker 4: I just think Ohio State fans they travel very well.

1744
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:24,960
Speaker 2: Of course, can be hard to see because the colors are.

1745
01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:27,760
Speaker 1: Be fun to send all those folks home unhappy too,

1746
01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:28,120
Speaker 1: won't it.

1747
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:32,160
Speaker 3: I mean, for sure, certainly that would be quite telling.

1748
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:33,200
Speaker 2: Graham Ray Hall.

1749
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:36,360
Speaker 4: But at the same time, okay, Graham boy, I also

1750
01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 4: think that that's part of the reason why Hillo State

1751
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:40,679
Speaker 4: fans will show up to come to your state capital

1752
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:42,280
Speaker 4: and tell you guys still are still are not on

1753
01:20:42,320 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 4: our level.

1754
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:44,360
Speaker 1: You're still little brothers.

1755
01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:45,519
Speaker 3: What they want to tell I think that's what they

1756
01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:46,040
Speaker 3: want to say.

1757
01:20:46,600 --> 01:20:49,360
Speaker 1: We were talking about fan bases and how horrible they

1758
01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:53,200
Speaker 1: can be. Philadelphia living up again to that reputation. Mark Dickton,

1759
01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:55,960
Speaker 1: did you see this? The New Jersey home, which is right,

1760
01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:58,840
Speaker 1: you know, part of the suburbs of Philadelphia and southern

1761
01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:02,799
Speaker 1: New Jersey, Jersey home of Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Patulo

1762
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:08,160
Speaker 1: egged Saturday morning, according to Morristown Police Department, a day

1763
01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:10,360
Speaker 1: after their twenty four to fifteen home loss to the

1764
01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:16,400
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears. They're egging an NFL offensive coordinator's house because

1765
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,559
Speaker 1: they lost a Friday game.

1766
01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:21,639
Speaker 2: He was on Frank Craik's staff when he was here

1767
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:22,040
Speaker 2: in Indy.

1768
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:24,640
Speaker 3: This is why people live in gated communities. Yeah, no,

1769
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:25,200
Speaker 3: I'm gonna last.

1770
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:26,800
Speaker 4: I just kind of scary that someone can just find

1771
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:29,519
Speaker 4: radgress like that, So I hope that it does not

1772
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:33,120
Speaker 4: further escalate and he has security and all the measures

1773
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,800
Speaker 4: needed to keep his family safe. I'm no sports, we

1774
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:38,200
Speaker 4: get crazy, but that's a bridge too far.

1775
01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:40,160
Speaker 2: You're allowed to drive people off the road like Lane

1776
01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:42,519
Speaker 2: Kiffin had done to him an old mess, but not

1777
01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:42,960
Speaker 2: allowed to.

1778
01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:46,960
Speaker 4: Be I'm waiting for like someone to get video footage

1779
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:49,840
Speaker 4: of him driving to just dispute that, Like, know what,

1780
01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 4: you're a liar because you do realize since he left

1781
01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:55,120
Speaker 4: and did did the whole the team wanted me to

1782
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:58,040
Speaker 4: coach them. Several several players that come out and said no,

1783
01:21:58,520 --> 01:21:59,439
Speaker 4: we actually did not.

1784
01:21:59,560 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 1: Want you to.

1785
01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 2: That's been awesome to see.

1786
01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,840
Speaker 4: So I don't trust his account on anything Elane Kiffin,

1787
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:06,680
Speaker 4: like conspiracy theories that are coming out, like did you

1788
01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:09,040
Speaker 4: hear about the whole dog situation that maybe the dog

1789
01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:10,200
Speaker 4: wasn't actually his and.

1790
01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 2: A dog didn't live with them? Yeah, this is just excellent.

1791
01:22:14,439 --> 01:22:15,599
Speaker 3: I'm that thing.

1792
01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:17,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm here for all of them.

1793
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:20,759
Speaker 5: Apparently he left the dog because the dog wasn't actually

1794
01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:22,439
Speaker 5: living with him. It was just like a show dog

1795
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:24,559
Speaker 5: like you come out when I'm like in public. But

1796
01:22:24,640 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 5: other than that, I want nothing to do with you.

1797
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:30,040
Speaker 4: The quickest way to become public any a real dog

1798
01:22:30,080 --> 01:22:31,360
Speaker 4: owner to not be a real dog.

1799
01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:32,960
Speaker 2: Lover, Kirk Kurbstreet, here's that he's gonna be.

1800
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,920
Speaker 1: Our rate dogs are the best. I'm a dog person.

1801
01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,240
Speaker 5: Then you hate Lane Kiffin right now like a lot

1802
01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:39,960
Speaker 5: of yeah, that will get you hated.

1803
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:42,080
Speaker 1: Oh I was, I was in that line way before

1804
01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:42,639
Speaker 1: this happened.

1805
01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 8: Uh.

1806
01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:47,800
Speaker 1: Soya, Philadelphia fans living living up to their reputation right

1807
01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:48,240
Speaker 1: on brand.

1808
01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:51,200
Speaker 2: But we got some great NFL games starting tomorrow night.

1809
01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:55,240
Speaker 2: Cowboys Lions Tomorrow night. That is an awesome Thursday night game.

1810
01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:56,760
Speaker 1: It's the over under on that one.

1811
01:22:56,960 --> 01:22:58,519
Speaker 2: It's one of the biggest in the NFL all year.

1812
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:02,200
Speaker 2: I believe it's fifty four and Bill might like Bill's

1813
01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:04,439
Speaker 2: Bengals on Sunday is also a big over under. That's

1814
01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:07,400
Speaker 2: like fifty two. So, uh, We've got some huge games.

1815
01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:10,400
Speaker 2: I know Colt Jaggs obviously speaks for itself. We got

1816
01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:13,479
Speaker 2: some really really big games here in Week fourteen. I

1817
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:15,720
Speaker 2: think Tomorrow night is an awesome, awesome game.

1818
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:16,720
Speaker 1: Who are the Bears play?

1819
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:21,160
Speaker 3: Mark green Bay? They stuck by the way Cocker suck. Yep,

1820
01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:21,920
Speaker 3: they sure do.

1821
01:23:22,320 --> 01:23:24,680
Speaker 5: Also Bill's Bengals, I know the Bengals obviously have had

1822
01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:26,400
Speaker 5: a not a great season, but you're still getting Joe

1823
01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:29,799
Speaker 5: Burrow Josh Allen again. That's always usually a pretty good showdown.

1824
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:31,639
Speaker 4: Can I say this real quick. This is from Ian

1825
01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:34,599
Speaker 4: Repperport right now. He says, the culture and I expended

1826
01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:36,680
Speaker 4: to play Sauce Gardner on injury Reserve per me and

1827
01:23:36,720 --> 01:23:40,519
Speaker 4: Tom Pelaserro or per the head coach that we talked

1828
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,840
Speaker 4: to Monday who said that wasn't a possibility.

1829
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:44,360
Speaker 1: We'll read that again.

1830
01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:48,879
Speaker 4: It's just I mean NFL insiders, Ian Repperport, Tom Pelasero.

1831
01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 4: They report that IR is not a possibility for a

1832
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:56,840
Speaker 4: Sauce Gardner and I believe it was you one Kevin

1833
01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:00,679
Speaker 4: Boonen who did ask that question to change and he said,

1834
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:02,400
Speaker 4: you know what, it's on a possibility. So I would

1835
01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:04,880
Speaker 4: say per Kevin Bough and per Shanstichen.

1836
01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:05,719
Speaker 2: Just national media.

1837
01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:06,519
Speaker 3: It's just stupid.

1838
01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:08,120
Speaker 2: They can kiss.

1839
01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 1: My When I was at ES described.

1840
01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:12,760
Speaker 2: More of my ass, but they can just kiss it.

1841
01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:15,600
Speaker 1: When I was at ESPN, I remember the news department

1842
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:18,400
Speaker 1: putting out notices of how you would be able to

1843
01:24:18,640 --> 01:24:23,360
Speaker 1: frame things when news broke, and you you always had

1844
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:26,760
Speaker 1: you couldn't go with a story until someone on the

1845
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,960
Speaker 1: ESPN's news staff confirmed it and then you had to

1846
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:35,200
Speaker 1: read it as ESPN is confirming reports that so and

1847
01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:37,640
Speaker 1: so is this even though somebody else broke it like

1848
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:40,719
Speaker 1: four hours earlier. It's crazy. It's crazy.

1849
01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:43,000
Speaker 2: I don't usually do the media thing on media on

1850
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:44,599
Speaker 2: social media right now, but I'm gonna do it.

1851
01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:48,840
Speaker 3: Go get oh, I was just gonna do the same thing.

1852
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:53,280
Speaker 4: I'm going to screenshot the response and just the coltsweet thems,

1853
01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:53,920
Speaker 4: simple as that.

1854
01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:56,840
Speaker 1: All Right, we'll talk about all these things and more

1855
01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:59,960
Speaker 1: of the cults. With a big game coming up in Jacksonville.

1856
01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:02,880
Speaker 1: Can they get over that hump and over these late

1857
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:05,920
Speaker 1: season woes. We'll find out next as we continue in

1858
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 1: ninety three five and one of seven to five fan,

1859
01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,559
Speaker 1: Good morning, welcome into our number three. We've been talking

1860
01:25:12,560 --> 01:25:15,680
Speaker 1: about the NFL. We've been talking about big ten championship

1861
01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:19,920
Speaker 1: football games, great college basketball, but it comes down to

1862
01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:23,559
Speaker 1: this time of year. Can the Colts get over the hump?

1863
01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:28,280
Speaker 1: And the last non playoff seasons have just been dismal.

1864
01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:30,519
Speaker 1: Along with Kevin Bowen, James Boyd, I'm jeff Rickord and

1865
01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 1: Mark Kichten on the other side, James, you've been doing

1866
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:35,840
Speaker 1: just basic research on how bad things have been, but

1867
01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:37,960
Speaker 1: just the record alone tells you all you need to know.

1868
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:38,519
Speaker 1: Right now.

1869
01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:42,160
Speaker 4: Yes, So we are now in the month of December.

1870
01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:45,760
Speaker 4: If you look at the previous four years, each of

1871
01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:48,280
Speaker 4: which the Colton not made the playoffs, they are a

1872
01:25:48,360 --> 01:25:54,280
Speaker 4: combined nine and twelve during the months of December and January.

1873
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,519
Speaker 4: The last time they made the playoffs, they went four

1874
01:25:57,520 --> 01:25:59,920
Speaker 4: and one down the stretch in December and January two

1875
01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,360
Speaker 4: make the postseason to get into the dance. So all

1876
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:06,280
Speaker 4: that in mind, I think, not only is this upcoming

1877
01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:09,759
Speaker 4: game a huge one from a playoff picture standpoint, AFC

1878
01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:12,840
Speaker 4: South Championship standpoint, all the above, but you have a

1879
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:16,320
Speaker 4: chance to extra out some demons I think down in Duval County.

1880
01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:19,920
Speaker 4: Beyond just the losing street to the Jaguars on the road,

1881
01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:21,240
Speaker 4: it's bigger than that. To me.

1882
01:26:21,320 --> 01:26:24,240
Speaker 3: It's a chance to prove you are a new team.

1883
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,080
Speaker 4: You have done that to a degree, I think so far,

1884
01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:30,960
Speaker 4: you won your first season opener since twenty thirteen, you

1885
01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:32,599
Speaker 4: were two to zero for the first time since two

1886
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:34,640
Speaker 4: thousand and nine, you had a great start to the

1887
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:37,280
Speaker 4: year seven and one, all of the above. But now

1888
01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:40,120
Speaker 4: that you have hit this rough patch, do you have

1889
01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:44,760
Speaker 4: enough to basically prove to us that this year will

1890
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:45,200
Speaker 4: be different?

1891
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:46,200
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1892
01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:50,120
Speaker 2: I think it's really well said to me you don't

1893
01:26:50,160 --> 01:26:57,560
Speaker 2: always get games where the psychological I guess benefit equals

1894
01:26:57,680 --> 01:27:02,280
Speaker 2: the playoff benefit of the win, if that makes sense,

1895
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:05,439
Speaker 2: Like I think this serves both of those. If you

1896
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:08,840
Speaker 2: look at the playoff odds, it shifts like thirty forty

1897
01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:09,920
Speaker 2: percent win or loose.

1898
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:10,679
Speaker 3: Oh, it's huge.

1899
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:12,720
Speaker 2: And then to James's point, when you haven't won there

1900
01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:16,639
Speaker 2: in a decade, you've largely lost these games in December

1901
01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:19,439
Speaker 2: and January, I do think it can do something for

1902
01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:22,400
Speaker 2: you more so than winning at Seattle would next week,

1903
01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:26,040
Speaker 2: or beating even San Francisco on Monday Night football. Again,

1904
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,280
Speaker 2: if you're gonna rank these final five games and the

1905
01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:31,400
Speaker 2: importance of them, this one on Sunday is right up

1906
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,400
Speaker 2: there at the top of the list. Where is San Francisco's. Yeah,

1907
01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:37,160
Speaker 2: they're all big, of course, but that doesn't fall into

1908
01:27:37,200 --> 01:27:39,080
Speaker 2: the same category as it. And you know what, I

1909
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,040
Speaker 2: think it's also a big game for Jacksonville. You know,

1910
01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:42,680
Speaker 2: from their side of it, you know they've had this

1911
01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:46,439
Speaker 2: awkward last three or four years where you know, they

1912
01:27:46,439 --> 01:27:49,200
Speaker 2: were the one seed entering the month of December just

1913
01:27:49,240 --> 01:27:52,719
Speaker 2: two years ago and then it fell off a cliff

1914
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:56,280
Speaker 2: and then last year, of course they make the coaching

1915
01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:58,840
Speaker 2: change and now here comes Liam Cohen. And you watch

1916
01:27:58,840 --> 01:28:00,400
Speaker 2: the Jags this year and you're kind of like, wait,

1917
01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:03,000
Speaker 2: how are they eight and four? You know, I mean,

1918
01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:04,559
Speaker 2: there's not a lot when you look at their numbers,

1919
01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:08,639
Speaker 2: there's just not a lot that they have top ten

1920
01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,400
Speaker 2: ish stuff on either side of the ball here. So

1921
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:13,800
Speaker 2: I think it's the reason why Vegas has got this

1922
01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:15,880
Speaker 2: game pegged. It's just a slight favorite for the Colts.

1923
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:20,360
Speaker 2: And you know, this is just yeah, it's it's massive,

1924
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 2: absolutely massive.

1925
01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:27,000
Speaker 1: For those wondering ESPN dot com. They have their matchup

1926
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:29,320
Speaker 1: predictor for every game where they run these games through

1927
01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:33,280
Speaker 1: thousands of simulations. Right now, the Colts are fifty four

1928
01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:37,080
Speaker 1: point six percent with a chance to win, so they're

1929
01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:39,960
Speaker 1: slightly favorite. They're also the Colts going in on the

1930
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:41,880
Speaker 1: road are one and a half point favorites too.

1931
01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:45,240
Speaker 3: James, I'd never favorite them in Dull County ever.

1932
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:49,479
Speaker 2: Just make you guys feel old at all. Today's National

1933
01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:53,080
Speaker 2: Signing Day. The Notre Dame recruiting class has the sons

1934
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:57,799
Speaker 2: of Larry Fitzgerald, Jamichael Finley, and Thomas Davis.

1935
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:02,280
Speaker 4: That is yeah, I'm starting to get to that point

1936
01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,160
Speaker 4: where I'm like wait a second, I think it happened for.

1937
01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:06,120
Speaker 2: Me, Like, why do I feel like Larry Fitzgerald go

1938
01:29:06,120 --> 01:29:08,240
Speaker 2: play an NBA or an NFL game tomorrow and have

1939
01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:09,960
Speaker 2: seven catches for sixty two yards?

1940
01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:12,040
Speaker 3: He probably couldn't a couple third down pickups as well?

1941
01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:12,920
Speaker 3: Is it?

1942
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:16,160
Speaker 4: Jase richardson Michigan State? He played there, and I was like, Wow,

1943
01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:19,160
Speaker 4: your dad was amazing burning but we believe era of

1944
01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:22,599
Speaker 4: the Golden State Warrior that was pre Stephen Curry. So yeah,

1945
01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:24,120
Speaker 4: I guess it is that time of the year. I

1946
01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:26,519
Speaker 4: always enjoyed this as a high school reporter, though National

1947
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:28,760
Speaker 4: sign Day was fun. Good, a chance to be around

1948
01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:30,599
Speaker 4: a bunch of kids hopefully trying to change their lives

1949
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:31,000
Speaker 4: for the better.

1950
01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,559
Speaker 1: You'd been to those press conferences where they have three

1951
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:35,360
Speaker 1: hats in front of him and they choose the hat.

1952
01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:38,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I've always known where they were gonna go.

1953
01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:43,000
Speaker 4: I know some kids would tell me beforehand and I

1954
01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:46,240
Speaker 4: just wouldn't say anything, but others would like, try to

1955
01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:49,280
Speaker 4: not leak it, but it'd be so obvious that which

1956
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:50,120
Speaker 4: school they're going to.

1957
01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:51,639
Speaker 1: The first time I ever went to one of those

1958
01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:54,760
Speaker 1: press conferences, it was Chauncey Billups oh man, he was.

1959
01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:56,639
Speaker 1: He went to high school in Denver.

1960
01:29:56,760 --> 01:29:58,040
Speaker 2: That was a big game Coado.

1961
01:29:58,120 --> 01:29:59,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's right. He went to Colorado for a year

1962
01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:03,120
Speaker 1: to help them upset North Carolina in the NCAA tournament.

1963
01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:05,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was fun watching last night again Florida. But

1964
01:30:05,320 --> 01:30:06,640
Speaker 2: do and go, Braylen Mullins.

1965
01:30:06,680 --> 01:30:08,800
Speaker 3: So you're saying you're the pipeline to watch Hauntsey is

1966
01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:09,200
Speaker 3: the way he is?

1967
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:09,840
Speaker 1: Now, that's me.

1968
01:30:10,040 --> 01:30:14,640
Speaker 2: That's it. That's exactly right. Attended the poker game afterwards

1969
01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:15,640
Speaker 2: to celebrate.

1970
01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:18,360
Speaker 1: Chauncey's making headlines for the wrong reasons these days.

1971
01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:20,320
Speaker 2: The commitments to college changed.

1972
01:30:20,360 --> 01:30:22,519
Speaker 1: But isn't that guy like one of the last guys

1973
01:30:22,520 --> 01:30:24,519
Speaker 1: you would have expected to get caught up in something

1974
01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:24,960
Speaker 1: like that.

1975
01:30:26,120 --> 01:30:28,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, honestly, if you told me Terry Rozier was involved

1976
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:31,000
Speaker 4: in that, yeah, because he's kind of a clownish player.

1977
01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:33,839
Speaker 3: But I guess looks sar can we deceiving?

1978
01:30:34,080 --> 01:30:36,080
Speaker 5: Speaking of a national signing day, By the way, this

1979
01:30:36,120 --> 01:30:38,559
Speaker 5: guy hit us up on Twitter. He said, my son

1980
01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:40,719
Speaker 5: and his teammate are signing their letter of intent today.

1981
01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:45,720
Speaker 5: Avan Robinson is signing with Central Michigan and then Messias McDaniel,

1982
01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:47,000
Speaker 5: all both of Brownsburg.

1983
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:47,640
Speaker 3: The back back of.

1984
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:51,000
Speaker 5: State jasatched him signing with Illinois State, so he said

1985
01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:53,240
Speaker 5: to give him a shout out. So congratulations those guys.

1986
01:30:53,240 --> 01:30:54,559
Speaker 5: That's a big day for them and their family.

1987
01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:57,280
Speaker 1: We tell you that offensive line Brownsburg had this year,

1988
01:30:57,360 --> 01:30:58,920
Speaker 1: it was fun to watch. Man.

1989
01:30:59,120 --> 01:31:01,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, what a great day. I get this, you know,

1990
01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:03,120
Speaker 2: National sign Day. Maybe it's lost a little bit of

1991
01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,960
Speaker 2: its luster from a transfer portal standpoint, but still it's

1992
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:07,639
Speaker 2: an awesome day for somebody out there.

1993
01:31:07,680 --> 01:31:09,639
Speaker 3: So if only I could be so athletic to get

1994
01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:11,040
Speaker 3: free school congrats.

1995
01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:14,960
Speaker 2: I saw that, like, yes, go ahead, No, I'll just say, James,

1996
01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,120
Speaker 2: We've got a few questions, and it was kind of

1997
01:31:17,120 --> 01:31:19,639
Speaker 2: scrolling through the YouTube chat and you know, to look

1998
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:21,559
Speaker 2: at that. I just threw out the line of this.

1999
01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:27,120
Speaker 2: The Colts have signed a new kicker, Blake Groupie. How

2000
01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:30,559
Speaker 2: would you say, I guess how much of an upgrade,

2001
01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:33,760
Speaker 2: if at all, you feel he is to Michael Bagley.

2002
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:35,719
Speaker 3: Very slight.

2003
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:39,080
Speaker 4: I would say he's an upgrade from the standpoint of

2004
01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:42,120
Speaker 4: if we score a touchdown, he'll make the pat which

2005
01:31:42,160 --> 01:31:44,080
Speaker 4: is a big because the.

2006
01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:45,760
Speaker 1: Complexion of the way you play the game, like we

2007
01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:46,679
Speaker 1: saw this past week.

2008
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:50,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you miss pats for sure, But from an

2009
01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:52,920
Speaker 4: overall kicking standpoint, I don't expect this guy to like

2010
01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:55,320
Speaker 4: go out there and win you games. I would not

2011
01:31:55,360 --> 01:31:58,200
Speaker 4: feel great about lining up for a forty four yarder

2012
01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:01,640
Speaker 4: to win it this upcoming sun day in Jacksonville.

2013
01:32:01,640 --> 01:32:03,920
Speaker 5: Can you imagine if that's what happens, if the game

2014
01:32:03,960 --> 01:32:06,200
Speaker 5: comes down, Oh but gut he picked up off the

2015
01:32:06,240 --> 01:32:09,479
Speaker 5: suite to snap the Jaguar at Jacksonville.

2016
01:32:09,080 --> 01:32:11,559
Speaker 2: You would carry him back. The Indie Grover Stewart would

2017
01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:13,479
Speaker 2: have to carry him on his shoulders, which it probably

2018
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:14,920
Speaker 2: would be like carrying a bit.

2019
01:32:15,040 --> 01:32:16,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, we see. We got a couple people saying he's

2020
01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:19,000
Speaker 4: a down grade. I can't go that far. If you

2021
01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:21,840
Speaker 4: don't make point after its tims, I don't care what

2022
01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:23,640
Speaker 4: else you do on the field. Yeah, you're just not

2023
01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:25,280
Speaker 4: going to be in the NFL. I've tried to describe

2024
01:32:25,320 --> 01:32:26,280
Speaker 4: this for the last few weeks.

2025
01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:29,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if people fully realize how astronomically bad

2026
01:32:29,439 --> 01:32:32,479
Speaker 2: three missed extra potation. So you broke it down, it's

2027
01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:34,640
Speaker 2: I'm not going to go over the numbers. It is

2028
01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:38,360
Speaker 2: absurdly bad. Listen to Brian Mason's the one word he

2029
01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:42,719
Speaker 2: used yesterday to describe it inexcusable. When an NFL coach

2030
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:46,519
Speaker 2: calls something a player does inexcusable in a public setting,

2031
01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:48,360
Speaker 2: I think that tells you everything you need to know

2032
01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:51,320
Speaker 2: about what they thought of the extra points. So I

2033
01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:54,000
Speaker 2: do largely agree though James. You know, from an overall

2034
01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:57,240
Speaker 2: sample size, Blake Group he has definitely missed, you know,

2035
01:32:57,400 --> 01:33:02,599
Speaker 2: field goals this season inside of fifty yards as well. Now,

2036
01:33:02,640 --> 01:33:04,960
Speaker 2: from a leg strength standpoint, I think Group he's got

2037
01:33:04,960 --> 01:33:08,439
Speaker 2: a little bit more from fifty plus, not much like

2038
01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:11,160
Speaker 2: I think change seconds. Play calling will still be pretty aggressive,

2039
01:33:11,520 --> 01:33:13,160
Speaker 2: you know, when you get into that zone around the

2040
01:33:13,200 --> 01:33:16,439
Speaker 2: thirty five forty yard line. But my bar is simply this.

2041
01:33:17,720 --> 01:33:20,160
Speaker 2: Can you get to the end of the season and

2042
01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:22,400
Speaker 2: if Blake Group he has missed one extra point in

2043
01:33:22,479 --> 01:33:26,000
Speaker 2: five games and he's fine on you know, fine ish

2044
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:28,400
Speaker 2: on field goals, it's a win.

2045
01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:30,000
Speaker 4: I also look at it like this because I see

2046
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:34,559
Speaker 4: people saying like, oh, you know, it's a downgrade because

2047
01:33:34,600 --> 01:33:37,720
Speaker 4: he misses field goals. We all have jobs, right, and

2048
01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:40,240
Speaker 4: we have the bare minimum we have to do for

2049
01:33:40,320 --> 01:33:45,200
Speaker 4: our jobs. For example, at our jobs here on the station,

2050
01:33:45,439 --> 01:33:48,720
Speaker 4: your bare minimum will be to show up at seven

2051
01:33:48,760 --> 01:33:52,000
Speaker 4: o'clock and turn the mic on. You really can't do

2052
01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:55,160
Speaker 4: the show if you're not here. His job, his bare

2053
01:33:55,240 --> 01:33:59,280
Speaker 4: minimum as a kicker is to make the extra point.

2054
01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:02,160
Speaker 4: That's the east line. That is the least we're asking

2055
01:34:02,200 --> 01:34:03,439
Speaker 4: you to do. And if you can't do that, then

2056
01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:05,120
Speaker 4: you can't have a job in the NFL. It's that's

2057
01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:06,960
Speaker 4: what I'm not saying. That Blake group with some revelation,

2058
01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:09,160
Speaker 4: he's going to turn things round. I think he's flawed

2059
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:13,320
Speaker 4: as well. But at least you have the peace of mind.

2060
01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:14,880
Speaker 4: You know, we get in the end zone and we

2061
01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:18,920
Speaker 4: score a touchdown, this guy won't mess us up because

2062
01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:19,960
Speaker 4: he can't make the layup.

2063
01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:23,120
Speaker 2: Does that mean you've missed an extra point or two

2064
01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:25,240
Speaker 2: if you have to be here at seven o'clock.

2065
01:34:25,360 --> 01:34:31,160
Speaker 4: Absolutely, But in fairness, I've missed two in about eight

2066
01:34:31,160 --> 01:34:34,160
Speaker 4: months now, I think so a little more seven games.

2067
01:34:36,760 --> 01:34:39,400
Speaker 1: Let's check the text line right now, two nine, ten seventy.

2068
01:34:39,439 --> 01:34:40,880
Speaker 3: You want to slash Kevin's tired?

2069
01:34:42,320 --> 01:34:44,000
Speaker 1: I mean I was waiting for somebody.

2070
01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:47,840
Speaker 2: Believe markedn't jump all over the sitting right.

2071
01:34:49,320 --> 01:34:49,400
Speaker 9: No.

2072
01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:50,880
Speaker 3: I wanted to just let it breathe.

2073
01:34:50,920 --> 01:34:51,639
Speaker 1: I thought Mark.

2074
01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:54,439
Speaker 2: Didn't hear James I will tell you I was James

2075
01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:57,960
Speaker 2: makeson own analogy where he's criticizing himself and yet no,

2076
01:34:58,240 --> 01:34:58,960
Speaker 2: it just sits there.

2077
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:00,000
Speaker 3: Sometimes he just let it breathe.

2078
01:35:00,360 --> 01:35:04,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, this one Dave wants to know KB. Are

2079
01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:07,559
Speaker 1: you surprised the line keeps dropping in the Indiana versus

2080
01:35:07,560 --> 01:35:08,639
Speaker 1: Ohio State game.

2081
01:35:08,880 --> 01:35:11,280
Speaker 2: Dave from Beach grow Uh yeah, open up at what

2082
01:35:11,320 --> 01:35:12,760
Speaker 2: five and a half and I think it's down of four?

2083
01:35:12,880 --> 01:35:13,120
Speaker 8: No?

2084
01:35:13,120 --> 01:35:14,880
Speaker 2: No, I mean again, I think the game matters more

2085
01:35:14,880 --> 01:35:20,400
Speaker 2: to Indiana than it does to Ohio State. Ohio State

2086
01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:23,639
Speaker 2: just had their biggest game of the Ohio State fans.

2087
01:35:23,640 --> 01:35:25,240
Speaker 2: If you asked them, if you go up to them

2088
01:35:25,280 --> 01:35:26,800
Speaker 2: on side of the street, Hey, would you rather beat

2089
01:35:26,840 --> 01:35:31,400
Speaker 2: Michigan or win a Big ten title? Beat Michigan? Beat Michigan,

2090
01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 2: Beat Michigan, Beat Michigan, beat Michigan.

2091
01:35:33,439 --> 01:35:34,639
Speaker 3: It's one hundred out of one hundred.

2092
01:35:34,880 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 2: Yes, a thousand out.

2093
01:35:35,920 --> 01:35:38,719
Speaker 3: Of that because you ain't even beat him in all.

2094
01:35:38,720 --> 01:35:40,559
Speaker 2: That was their game. That was their game, and now

2095
01:35:40,600 --> 01:35:42,760
Speaker 2: they've got to recharge with Indiana's been thinking about this

2096
01:35:42,800 --> 01:35:46,840
Speaker 2: game for what since they beat Oregon? Right, I mean

2097
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:48,720
Speaker 2: outside of the Penn State game, you haven't really been

2098
01:35:48,760 --> 01:35:52,360
Speaker 2: tested at all. So I just think it matters more

2099
01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:55,320
Speaker 2: to Indiana, and I think the rankings sold this last night.

2100
01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:58,120
Speaker 2: I mean one to two. Still, I think the loser

2101
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:01,240
Speaker 2: gets a bye. And again there's not that big of

2102
01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:03,800
Speaker 2: a difference in the one, two, three four buys. And

2103
01:36:03,840 --> 01:36:06,519
Speaker 2: someone brought up in the text line as well. You know,

2104
01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:09,599
Speaker 2: for a lot of Indiana fans, this might be the

2105
01:36:09,640 --> 01:36:11,320
Speaker 2: only time they see them play the rest of the

2106
01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:14,680
Speaker 2: year in person. You know, if you're gonna map out

2107
01:36:14,720 --> 01:36:16,680
Speaker 2: a playoff path, I don't know, Mark, you can may

2108
01:36:16,720 --> 01:36:18,360
Speaker 2: pull up the bracket. I don't know exactly what it

2109
01:36:18,360 --> 01:36:20,720
Speaker 2: would look like, but you're talking about let's go off

2110
01:36:20,760 --> 01:36:23,599
Speaker 2: of Notre Dames path from last year. Notre Dames path

2111
01:36:23,640 --> 01:36:26,160
Speaker 2: once they played the home game was what New Orleans?

2112
01:36:27,680 --> 01:36:30,240
Speaker 2: Where was the Peach Bowl or Orange Bowl in Miami?

2113
01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:32,439
Speaker 2: And then the conference title or the national title game

2114
01:36:32,479 --> 01:36:35,120
Speaker 2: was in Atlanta. So New Orleans, Miami, Atlanta. Well, that's

2115
01:36:35,160 --> 01:36:37,200
Speaker 2: a lot of money to be getting on flights and

2116
01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:40,639
Speaker 2: going to all those places there. So for Indiana fans, yes,

2117
01:36:40,640 --> 01:36:44,240
Speaker 2: it's an expensive ticket, clearly for Saturday night, but you

2118
01:36:44,280 --> 01:36:45,679
Speaker 2: also get a sleep in your own bed.

2119
01:36:46,840 --> 01:36:46,920
Speaker 8: Uh.

2120
01:36:47,120 --> 01:36:49,320
Speaker 1: For those wondering too, if you were doing other things

2121
01:36:49,400 --> 01:36:52,720
Speaker 1: last night. They do have the latest college football playoff rankings.

2122
01:36:52,840 --> 01:36:56,000
Speaker 1: Out the top four seeds teams that would get buys

2123
01:36:56,080 --> 01:37:00,000
Speaker 1: right now number one Ohio State, number two, Indiana, number three, Jeordian,

2124
01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:02,840
Speaker 1: number four, Texas Tech. And the question for a lot

2125
01:37:02,840 --> 01:37:06,320
Speaker 1: of people is does the loser of the Indiana Ohio

2126
01:37:06,400 --> 01:37:09,680
Speaker 1: State game get knocked out of a first round by

2127
01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:11,840
Speaker 1: I can't see that happening for either team right now,

2128
01:37:11,920 --> 01:37:14,439
Speaker 1: Kevin Well And.

2129
01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:17,720
Speaker 2: Who's after them? Mark? I see you got the bracket up.

2130
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:20,280
Speaker 1: You've got uh. Oregon is number five.

2131
01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:24,760
Speaker 2: Yep, Organ's not playing. I you already beat them.

2132
01:37:23,920 --> 01:37:25,800
Speaker 3: At Alabama nine, Oklahoma eight.

2133
01:37:26,160 --> 01:37:26,800
Speaker 2: Who's six?

2134
01:37:27,160 --> 01:37:27,679
Speaker 3: Ole Miss?

2135
01:37:27,720 --> 01:37:29,439
Speaker 2: Ole Miss? Yeah? An old Miss isn't playing now. I

2136
01:37:29,680 --> 01:37:32,400
Speaker 2: don't mean I use going to drop behind Oregon, who

2137
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:34,120
Speaker 2: they already beat on the road this year. No, I

2138
01:37:34,360 --> 01:37:38,080
Speaker 2: think I use comfortably. And again, my I already griped

2139
01:37:38,080 --> 01:37:40,760
Speaker 2: and bitched and moaned, and I'll do it again here

2140
01:37:40,840 --> 01:37:46,080
Speaker 2: because I think it's healthy for me. Notre Dame lost

2141
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:48,840
Speaker 2: two games. When you lose two games and you have

2142
01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:50,519
Speaker 2: the schedule, Notre Dame does this year not one of

2143
01:37:50,560 --> 01:37:53,320
Speaker 2: the top five schedules in the nation. Uh, you're not

2144
01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 2: voltproof and your resume is going to get picked apart

2145
01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:59,200
Speaker 2: as it should. Having said that, for the committee to

2146
01:37:59,200 --> 01:38:02,160
Speaker 2: say last night that Alabama is jumping Notre Dame because

2147
01:38:02,200 --> 01:38:05,160
Speaker 2: we were impressed by their seven point win over interim

2148
01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:09,639
Speaker 2: coach Auburn, when Auburn has won one SEC game this year,

2149
01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:14,400
Speaker 2: that one SEC opponent, Arkansas. Notre Dame went to Arkansas

2150
01:38:14,400 --> 01:38:18,320
Speaker 2: this year and beat them by forty. What did Notre

2151
01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:20,479
Speaker 2: Dame do last week? They went to Stanford and they

2152
01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:24,479
Speaker 2: covered the spread by halftime. So I just thought the

2153
01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:29,680
Speaker 2: committee was just absolutely idiotic and their rationality bumping Alabama.

2154
01:38:29,720 --> 01:38:33,040
Speaker 2: I really think the conversation needs to be more about Alabama.

2155
01:38:33,120 --> 01:38:35,360
Speaker 2: I know everyone's turned it into Notre Dame versus Miami.

2156
01:38:35,640 --> 01:38:38,160
Speaker 2: You want to look at it. Alabama lost to Florida State,

2157
01:38:39,640 --> 01:38:40,559
Speaker 2: Florida State.

2158
01:38:40,400 --> 01:38:43,000
Speaker 1: Which is at this point in time, that's almost an

2159
01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:46,960
Speaker 1: unforgivable loss. Here's the thing. If they lose to Georgia,

2160
01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:49,160
Speaker 1: there are three losses, and there are people out there

2161
01:38:49,200 --> 01:38:52,760
Speaker 1: that still think Alabama might find squeeze in at the

2162
01:38:52,880 --> 01:38:55,280
Speaker 1: very end, and right now, the way the brackets set

2163
01:38:55,360 --> 01:38:59,080
Speaker 1: up right now, it's very possible that if Indiana stayed

2164
01:38:59,200 --> 01:39:01,960
Speaker 1: is the number two team, and I would imagine they'd

2165
01:39:01,960 --> 01:39:05,360
Speaker 1: go either to number one if they win this week,

2166
01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:07,719
Speaker 1: or maybe down to three or four if they lose.

2167
01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,080
Speaker 1: But right now it would be the winner of Notre

2168
01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:12,760
Speaker 1: Dame Texas A and M.

2169
01:39:13,280 --> 01:39:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Notre Dame at TEXA and M right now is

2170
01:39:15,240 --> 01:39:17,040
Speaker 2: a round one bracket and then yes, the winner would

2171
01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:20,160
Speaker 2: get I need dad mm hm. So if you are

2172
01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:23,160
Speaker 2: a Notre Dame fan, you are cheering for the Texas

2173
01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:25,200
Speaker 2: tech Raiders.

2174
01:39:25,040 --> 01:39:26,519
Speaker 3: Talking to yourself in a mirror right now.

2175
01:39:28,200 --> 01:39:30,400
Speaker 1: If the if the Ohio State Indiana game is close

2176
01:39:30,439 --> 01:39:31,920
Speaker 1: and comes right down to the end, do they just

2177
01:39:32,000 --> 01:39:33,400
Speaker 1: keep both those teams at one and two?

2178
01:39:33,400 --> 01:39:34,760
Speaker 2: I think they should, Yes, I do.

2179
01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:37,479
Speaker 5: Location wise, by the way, for quarterfinals, since you asked,

2180
01:39:37,520 --> 01:39:42,360
Speaker 5: Cotton Bowl is at Cowboys Stadium, Orange Bowl out in Miami,

2181
01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:45,080
Speaker 5: Dolphins Stadium, rose Ball obviously we know where that is,

2182
01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:47,200
Speaker 5: and then the Sugar Bowl out in New Orleans, and

2183
01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:51,120
Speaker 5: the semi finals would be in Glendale, Arizona. The Falcons

2184
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:54,000
Speaker 5: Stadium is the Peach Bowl and National Championship back at

2185
01:39:54,080 --> 01:39:55,000
Speaker 5: Dolphins Stadium.

2186
01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:57,240
Speaker 4: And that's where you get into this where the Big ten.

2187
01:39:57,280 --> 01:39:59,719
Speaker 4: There's the Sugar Bowl. By the way, I love New Orleans,

2188
01:39:59,680 --> 01:40:00,559
Speaker 4: the FL It's amazing.

2189
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:02,920
Speaker 2: The Big Ten does not have a lot to play

2190
01:40:02,960 --> 01:40:06,280
Speaker 2: for from those sites. Mark like last year Notre Dame

2191
01:40:06,320 --> 01:40:10,600
Speaker 2: played Georgia in the Superdomes. We're kind of used to

2192
01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:13,680
Speaker 2: the Sugar Bowl being SEC headquarters, right, and then if

2193
01:40:13,680 --> 01:40:15,960
Speaker 2: you're like Texas or Oklahoma, you want to be in

2194
01:40:15,960 --> 01:40:19,280
Speaker 2: that Cotton Bowl site. Last year Oregon in the Rose Bowl.

2195
01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:20,960
Speaker 2: You know, when you're out west. That makes a little

2196
01:40:20,960 --> 01:40:24,040
Speaker 2: sense for the Big Ten. There's not really like Ohio State, Indiana.

2197
01:40:24,960 --> 01:40:26,519
Speaker 2: I mean, you're getting on a plane to any of

2198
01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:29,080
Speaker 2: those sites. It's not like there's an overwhelming you know,

2199
01:40:29,120 --> 01:40:32,280
Speaker 2: obviously from a nostalgia standpoint, it would be the Rose

2200
01:40:32,320 --> 01:40:32,760
Speaker 2: Bull there.

2201
01:40:32,800 --> 01:40:36,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, you know what I thought was interesting too

2202
01:40:36,200 --> 01:40:40,640
Speaker 1: in the name of money talking about rivalry games. It

2203
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:44,120
Speaker 1: wasn't a conference game, but Georgia Tech Georgia. It was

2204
01:40:44,120 --> 01:40:46,840
Speaker 1: supposed to be a home game for Georgia Tech. They

2205
01:40:46,880 --> 01:40:50,000
Speaker 1: decided to move that game to get more ticket sales

2206
01:40:50,439 --> 01:40:54,479
Speaker 1: to the Mercedes Dome, and so Georgia was there. Georgia

2207
01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:56,800
Speaker 1: ended up having way more people there, almost became a

2208
01:40:56,840 --> 01:40:58,479
Speaker 1: home game for them, and it turned out to be

2209
01:40:58,520 --> 01:41:01,000
Speaker 1: a fairly close game. Makes you wonder Georgia Tech's kind

2210
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:02,640
Speaker 1: of one of those teams this year that had they

2211
01:41:02,760 --> 01:41:05,599
Speaker 1: been playing at home, they're just plucky enough they might

2212
01:41:05,640 --> 01:41:07,360
Speaker 1: have been able to pull off an upset over Georgie.

2213
01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:09,640
Speaker 1: I just wonder if that affected the outcome of that

2214
01:41:09,680 --> 01:41:10,240
Speaker 1: game at all.

2215
01:41:10,439 --> 01:41:12,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that didn't make sense to me. I would think

2216
01:41:12,640 --> 01:41:13,679
Speaker 2: you'd want that on campus.

2217
01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:15,920
Speaker 1: I would think so too. You're almost just giving up

2218
01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:19,320
Speaker 1: a home game because you're gonna get just so the

2219
01:41:19,439 --> 01:41:21,479
Speaker 1: numbers are going to be so much greater for Georgia

2220
01:41:21,520 --> 01:41:24,320
Speaker 1: in a neutral sight. But anyway, Georgia number three right now,

2221
01:41:24,479 --> 01:41:26,280
Speaker 1: number four Texas Tech. And we'll see how it all

2222
01:41:26,320 --> 01:41:29,120
Speaker 1: shakes out with conference championships coming up this weekend. In

2223
01:41:29,160 --> 01:41:30,880
Speaker 1: the meantime, Mark, let's check it down and tell you

2224
01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:34,680
Speaker 1: what's happening here in Indianapolis.

2225
01:41:33,920 --> 01:41:37,120
Speaker 7: The Morning Checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh

2226
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:38,320
Speaker 7: seven five the Fan.

2227
01:41:38,720 --> 01:41:40,919
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have heard, but ESPN

2228
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:43,439
Speaker 1: and Ian Rappaport are now reporting that Sauce Cardon will

2229
01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:44,880
Speaker 1: not go on the injured reserve this year.

2230
01:41:45,120 --> 01:41:50,200
Speaker 4: James shout out to Kevin Bowen for confirming that on Monday. Look,

2231
01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:54,440
Speaker 4: I respect the grind of what they do as insiders,

2232
01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:57,599
Speaker 4: and certainly I'm chasing mat selling certain things all the time.

2233
01:41:57,680 --> 01:42:00,880
Speaker 4: But every now and then you gotta calls people out.

2234
01:42:00,960 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 4: That is one of the more stupider tweets I've seen

2235
01:42:05,120 --> 01:42:07,439
Speaker 4: in a while, per Me, And it's not even like

2236
01:42:07,479 --> 01:42:08,120
Speaker 4: per sources.

2237
01:42:08,240 --> 01:42:11,960
Speaker 3: It's per Me, per Me and another reporter what.

2238
01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:14,680
Speaker 1: So Well, we know that Sauce Gardner will not be

2239
01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:16,600
Speaker 1: playing either way this week when the Colts take on

2240
01:42:16,600 --> 01:42:19,960
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars in Jacksonville one o'clock kick on Sunday

2241
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:23,120
Speaker 1: afternoon airtime ten o'clock here at ninety three five, one

2242
01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:25,479
Speaker 1: oh seven five the fan, let's go back to the

2243
01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,960
Speaker 1: broken leg though with Dan and continue to keep playing,

2244
01:42:28,960 --> 01:42:31,479
Speaker 1: and that it could possibly start getting better as the

2245
01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:32,280
Speaker 1: season goes along.

2246
01:42:32,360 --> 01:42:35,040
Speaker 2: Well again, you know, it's just a deep bone bruise.

2247
01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:37,679
Speaker 2: Is a fleck of a piece of his bone that's

2248
01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:41,920
Speaker 2: off here. That's where things aren't totally clear, But from

2249
01:42:41,920 --> 01:42:47,800
Speaker 2: a limitation standpoint, you do clearly have a lack of

2250
01:42:48,040 --> 01:42:52,080
Speaker 2: outside of the pocket movement, you know, scramble wise, those

2251
01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:54,080
Speaker 2: numbers have been really down the last two weeks. I

2252
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:55,960
Speaker 2: think that those are kind of the main areas where

2253
01:42:55,960 --> 01:42:58,680
Speaker 2: he's impacted. Now, clearly you watch Daniel Jones operate, and

2254
01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:01,559
Speaker 2: that man through some time throws on Sunday too, So

2255
01:43:01,720 --> 01:43:03,880
Speaker 2: again I think it's more of the outside of the

2256
01:43:03,920 --> 01:43:07,439
Speaker 2: pocket movement. But you know, so far, unless I'm missing something,

2257
01:43:07,439 --> 01:43:09,640
Speaker 2: I don't think his practice reps have been limited. You know,

2258
01:43:09,640 --> 01:43:12,320
Speaker 2: he's limited last Wednesday, that was a walkthrough, right, so

2259
01:43:13,120 --> 01:43:16,799
Speaker 2: you know, again he's been out there and participating fully

2260
01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:17,759
Speaker 2: in the actual practice.

2261
01:43:17,800 --> 01:43:19,600
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes you had the video last week of

2262
01:43:19,680 --> 01:43:21,479
Speaker 1: him kind of gingerly moving around.

2263
01:43:21,320 --> 01:43:24,479
Speaker 2: Right, but he's still anticipating. And again, fully, you know,

2264
01:43:24,520 --> 01:43:27,160
Speaker 2: we do have quarterbacks all around the league almost weekly

2265
01:43:27,360 --> 01:43:30,400
Speaker 2: miss actual days of practice and still play for those

2266
01:43:30,439 --> 01:43:32,920
Speaker 2: teams on Sunday. So we'll see if any other lingering

2267
01:43:32,960 --> 01:43:34,640
Speaker 2: injuries from the Colts, because the only injury from the

2268
01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:37,240
Speaker 2: game announced was the sauce gardener news and we know

2269
01:43:37,280 --> 01:43:39,240
Speaker 2: he will miss multiple weeks.

2270
01:43:39,280 --> 01:43:41,719
Speaker 1: All right, Again, that one comes your way Sunday afternoon,

2271
01:43:41,760 --> 01:43:44,880
Speaker 1: one o'clock and pregame starts at ten here ninety three

2272
01:43:44,920 --> 01:43:47,320
Speaker 1: five and one seven five. The fan indiand a Pacers

2273
01:43:47,320 --> 01:43:49,320
Speaker 1: at home tonight over at the Fieldhouse. They have a

2274
01:43:49,400 --> 01:43:53,000
Speaker 1: seven o'clock tip against the Denver Nuggets airtime six thirty

2275
01:43:53,040 --> 01:43:57,679
Speaker 1: here on the fan. Questionable or probable for Nikola Jokic

2276
01:43:57,800 --> 01:43:59,040
Speaker 1: tonight probable.

2277
01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:03,240
Speaker 2: Jamal Murray is questionable there without Aaron Gordon and Christian Brown.

2278
01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:07,120
Speaker 2: So you know, again, on paper, Denver's not in a

2279
01:44:07,200 --> 01:44:10,519
Speaker 2: great hell stay but hell, you got Joker and US four,

2280
01:44:10,560 --> 01:44:11,320
Speaker 2: you probably could win.

2281
01:44:11,840 --> 01:44:14,400
Speaker 1: Uh that again, We'll be here six thirty year time.

2282
01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:16,559
Speaker 2: Sevenwny points did we score tonight? If we played the

2283
01:44:16,560 --> 01:44:21,160
Speaker 2: Pacers Joker and US four minute game, no subs.

2284
01:44:22,680 --> 01:44:24,639
Speaker 1: Free throws for each of US, maybe seven points?

2285
01:44:25,120 --> 01:44:26,960
Speaker 2: You think we score seven points as a team free

2286
01:44:27,040 --> 01:44:30,240
Speaker 2: throws as a team with Nicole Yoga and the call

2287
01:44:30,320 --> 01:44:32,840
Speaker 2: is going to give you at least we have the

2288
01:44:32,920 --> 01:44:33,719
Speaker 2: joke twenty five.

2289
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:36,479
Speaker 1: Oh I'm talking about aside from him, I thought we

2290
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:37,320
Speaker 1: would as a team.

2291
01:44:37,360 --> 01:44:38,559
Speaker 2: This is a Wii, not an eye.

2292
01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:39,200
Speaker 1: Oh boy.

2293
01:44:39,600 --> 01:44:42,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not speaking French here. I'm thinking from myself.

2294
01:44:42,120 --> 01:44:45,720
Speaker 4: I'm getting at least two buckets, at least two if

2295
01:44:45,720 --> 01:44:47,000
Speaker 4: I played all forty eight minutes.

2296
01:44:47,600 --> 01:44:49,800
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm chucking the shoots. It might be two for

2297
01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:53,280
Speaker 3: twenty five that are over under They made a.

2298
01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:55,040
Speaker 1: Triple team him.

2299
01:44:55,240 --> 01:44:56,679
Speaker 3: There you go, I can make an open shot.

2300
01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:59,160
Speaker 5: I'll play the Draymond greenn Roll all start grabbing him,

2301
01:44:59,160 --> 01:45:00,880
Speaker 5: twisting things, trying to get some texts.

2302
01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:05,599
Speaker 3: Mark might not be alive.

2303
01:45:06,479 --> 01:45:13,080
Speaker 1: Oh man, Mather might score seventy two. We're gonna guard him,

2304
01:45:13,640 --> 01:45:16,200
Speaker 1: all right. That comes your way later on tonight, last night,

2305
01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:19,599
Speaker 1: college basketball purdu a winner over Rutgers on the road

2306
01:45:19,640 --> 01:45:22,960
Speaker 1: eighty one to sixty five. Trey Kaufman Wren nineteen points,

2307
01:45:23,000 --> 01:45:26,120
Speaker 1: thirteen boards, Braden Smith had sixteen points, and Fletcher Lawyer

2308
01:45:26,479 --> 01:45:28,960
Speaker 1: contributed twelve. Butler at home in eighty four to sixty

2309
01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:31,479
Speaker 1: eight went over Eastern Michigan. They've won four games in

2310
01:45:31,479 --> 01:45:34,479
Speaker 1: a row and Finley Bizjack twenty nine points continues to

2311
01:45:34,479 --> 01:45:38,400
Speaker 1: be on a row. Michael Lajai nineteen points and thirteen rebounds. Mother,

2312
01:45:38,479 --> 01:45:40,240
Speaker 1: I think is gonna be fun to watch this year, Kevin.

2313
01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:43,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had a really nice non conference you know

2314
01:45:43,120 --> 01:45:45,120
Speaker 2: again last year they slipped up in a couple of

2315
01:45:45,120 --> 01:45:48,800
Speaker 2: these games at Ankle they've helped serving these you know,

2316
01:45:48,880 --> 01:45:51,960
Speaker 2: really good at the Greenbrier a couple weeks back, beating Virginia,

2317
01:45:52,280 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 2: beating South Carolina. They all have Boise stayed at home

2318
01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:57,799
Speaker 2: on Saturday, and then they'll get Northwestern. We talked earlier

2319
01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:02,040
Speaker 2: with Dan Goliath from the Indiana Sports Corps and again

2320
01:46:02,120 --> 01:46:05,040
Speaker 2: that Indie Classic this year is Butler, Northwestern, Purdue Auburn,

2321
01:46:05,120 --> 01:46:07,800
Speaker 2: So you know Butler can get that neutral court win.

2322
01:46:08,439 --> 01:46:12,040
Speaker 2: That's a very solid non conference resume for Butler, which

2323
01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:14,640
Speaker 2: I think has really hurt them in recent years and

2324
01:46:14,680 --> 01:46:16,719
Speaker 2: probably is gonna be needed because the Big East, like

2325
01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:19,880
Speaker 2: like Marquette stinks. You know, the teams that were kind

2326
01:46:19,880 --> 01:46:22,160
Speaker 2: of used to in the Big East aren't maybe as

2327
01:46:22,160 --> 01:46:24,120
Speaker 2: good as we're used to. So yeah, nice start to

2328
01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:26,120
Speaker 2: the year for that. Mona all right, not to day.

2329
01:46:26,120 --> 01:46:28,799
Speaker 1: I'm a winner over Missouri last night seventy six seventy

2330
01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:31,479
Speaker 1: one gave them Missouri their first loss of the year.

2331
01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:34,360
Speaker 1: The Irish undefeated at home so far, Kevin five and

2332
01:46:34,400 --> 01:46:37,360
Speaker 1: oher Marcus Burton had eighteen points, ten assists. And you

2333
01:46:37,400 --> 01:46:39,639
Speaker 1: were talking about the outside shooting from Cole Shurta last

2334
01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:44,680
Speaker 1: night he had fourteen. Come on, baby Indiana State over Eureka.

2335
01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:49,439
Speaker 3: He's like a little kid. Oh my gosh.

2336
01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:50,920
Speaker 2: I was so freaking happy.

2337
01:46:51,160 --> 01:46:53,360
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, I feel like we're in the zudo

2338
01:46:53,400 --> 01:46:56,280
Speaker 4: of Max Bowm right now.

2339
01:46:57,840 --> 01:46:58,439
Speaker 3: On his face?

2340
01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:01,719
Speaker 1: Boy, have you started checking out flight parts?

2341
01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:03,240
Speaker 2: Got real excited when you.

2342
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:05,640
Speaker 1: Started checking out flights to the National Championship game in

2343
01:47:05,920 --> 01:47:06,839
Speaker 1: Miami for football?

2344
01:47:06,920 --> 01:47:07,080
Speaker 8: Yet?

2345
01:47:08,200 --> 01:47:11,240
Speaker 2: Uh no, no, no, no, no no no. I thought

2346
01:47:11,280 --> 01:47:13,439
Speaker 2: you were going to say basketball. I'm like, wait a minute,

2347
01:47:13,439 --> 01:47:15,000
Speaker 2: an't we right here Lucas Ol Stadium?

2348
01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:18,759
Speaker 1: Later on tonight it will be uh are you Indy

2349
01:47:18,920 --> 01:47:22,240
Speaker 1: playing against Detroit Mercy on the road and number twenty

2350
01:47:22,280 --> 01:47:25,120
Speaker 1: two Indiana seven o'clock tip on the road at the

2351
01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:28,080
Speaker 1: bar and they'll be taking on the Golden Gophers of Minnesota.

2352
01:47:28,640 --> 01:47:31,000
Speaker 1: The Gophers on a three game losing streak right now

2353
01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:33,760
Speaker 1: and Indiana has yet to lose. They're playing pretty well,

2354
01:47:33,880 --> 01:47:36,840
Speaker 1: playing good basketball right now. Anything else you guys want

2355
01:47:36,840 --> 01:47:38,240
Speaker 1: to throw in before we head off?

2356
01:47:38,240 --> 01:47:41,519
Speaker 5: To throw a baseball nugget out there. The Reds are

2357
01:47:41,600 --> 01:47:46,720
Speaker 5: seriously interested in bringing hometown boy Kyle Schwarber to the

2358
01:47:46,760 --> 01:47:50,720
Speaker 5: Reds this season. Kyle Schwarber also interested in a homecoming.

2359
01:47:51,520 --> 01:47:52,400
Speaker 5: What would that do for you?

2360
01:47:52,560 --> 01:47:55,519
Speaker 2: That gets the body parts feeling some things?

2361
01:47:55,560 --> 01:47:55,720
Speaker 8: Here?

2362
01:47:55,760 --> 01:47:57,880
Speaker 1: Mark that happens been and check in with Tuckers how

2363
01:47:57,960 --> 01:47:58,320
Speaker 1: you feeling?

2364
01:47:58,600 --> 01:47:59,800
Speaker 2: But here come the Red Lakes.

2365
01:48:00,240 --> 01:48:01,760
Speaker 3: Kevin would be all about it.

2366
01:48:01,840 --> 01:48:03,720
Speaker 1: That'd give us a good excuse to have Tucker bonnehart on,

2367
01:48:03,760 --> 01:48:04,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't it.

2368
01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:05,400
Speaker 2: Let's go baby.

2369
01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:06,599
Speaker 3: I love Kyle Schwarber.

2370
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:08,840
Speaker 5: I would hate to see him in the Red's uniform

2371
01:48:09,240 --> 01:48:13,120
Speaker 5: because he's awesome. But I'm happy if he gets paid.

2372
01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, aren't we at like winter meeting time? Isn't that

2373
01:48:15,640 --> 01:48:18,280
Speaker 2: kind of early December? All that happens there?

2374
01:48:18,640 --> 01:48:18,880
Speaker 8: M h.

2375
01:48:19,800 --> 01:48:21,879
Speaker 5: Some guys are getting paid, but there's a collective bargaining

2376
01:48:21,920 --> 01:48:25,040
Speaker 5: agreement that's going on next year. So some pocket books

2377
01:48:25,080 --> 01:48:26,879
Speaker 5: getting at little itching and scratchy.

2378
01:48:29,280 --> 01:48:32,880
Speaker 1: It's scratchy and you're just grabbing things over there. That's

2379
01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:33,920
Speaker 1: what we've got going on with.

2380
01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:37,439
Speaker 5: Mark nag It's it's scratchy. You gotta do it all right? Uh,

2381
01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:38,920
Speaker 5: it's just festering.

2382
01:48:39,120 --> 01:48:41,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ole Miss still goes up to number six in

2383
01:48:41,760 --> 01:48:44,800
Speaker 1: the latest college football Playoff ranking. And do we know

2384
01:48:44,840 --> 01:48:46,360
Speaker 1: who's going to be the head coach for them? Now?

2385
01:48:46,800 --> 01:48:49,439
Speaker 2: Have we have we heard definitively going to be a coordinator? Right,

2386
01:48:49,439 --> 01:48:50,880
Speaker 2: Pete Golding I believe is his name.

2387
01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:54,120
Speaker 1: And Charlie Weiss's kid will be allowed to coach the offense, right.

2388
01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:54,920
Speaker 2: For the playoffs.

2389
01:48:54,960 --> 01:48:57,120
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, all right, that's what's happening in the world

2390
01:48:57,120 --> 01:48:59,760
Speaker 1: of sports. More than we'll take a quick look back,

2391
01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:01,479
Speaker 1: maybe talk about some of the things that were on

2392
01:49:01,479 --> 01:49:04,400
Speaker 1: the mind of Rick Carlisle yesterday when we spoke to him,

2393
01:49:04,439 --> 01:49:06,320
Speaker 1: the head coach of the Indiana Pacers. They get ready

2394
01:49:06,320 --> 01:49:08,360
Speaker 1: to take on the Nuggets tonight. It's next ninety three

2395
01:49:08,360 --> 01:49:12,040
Speaker 1: five and one oh seven five the fan, Good morning,

2396
01:49:12,040 --> 01:49:15,519
Speaker 1: and welcome into a It's still chilly outside, still winter time.

2397
01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:19,679
Speaker 1: I saw some weather experts saying that they expected weather

2398
01:49:19,760 --> 01:49:22,439
Speaker 1: to come early to Indianapolis this year, So I don't

2399
01:49:22,439 --> 01:49:24,400
Speaker 1: know if that's going to stick around all winter long

2400
01:49:24,479 --> 01:49:27,160
Speaker 1: or not. But I'm not a fan of waking up

2401
01:49:27,160 --> 01:49:29,400
Speaker 1: and going outside at five point thirty six o'clock in

2402
01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:32,360
Speaker 1: the morning when it's twenty degrees outside, James, not my

2403
01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:33,080
Speaker 1: favorite thing to do.

2404
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:35,639
Speaker 6: Hey man, we do what we have to. But yeah,

2405
01:49:35,680 --> 01:49:38,840
Speaker 6: the wrong place to live then, I been. We've been

2406
01:49:39,000 --> 01:49:42,960
Speaker 6: fortunate up up until this year. It's been fairly mild

2407
01:49:42,960 --> 01:49:45,080
Speaker 6: the last five or six winters. It feels like, doesn't that.

2408
01:49:45,600 --> 01:49:47,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't mind the snow, it's not too bad

2409
01:49:47,720 --> 01:49:50,240
Speaker 5: as long and they're shout out to the plows. They're

2410
01:49:50,240 --> 01:49:52,400
Speaker 5: actually getting the streets clean. That's a nice change of pace.

2411
01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:55,120
Speaker 5: Let's keep that. Let's keep that energy going into twenty

2412
01:49:55,160 --> 01:49:57,960
Speaker 5: twenty six when this weather turns. But yeah, that's been

2413
01:49:58,000 --> 01:49:58,519
Speaker 5: not too bad.

2414
01:49:58,680 --> 01:50:01,040
Speaker 1: All right, Well, tonight the field house will be nice

2415
01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:04,960
Speaker 1: and toasty. Is that Nver Nuggets invade the Friendly Confines

2416
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:06,840
Speaker 1: over there? We've been talking about it all morning long.

2417
01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:09,000
Speaker 1: Of course, one of the best players in the league,

2418
01:50:09,080 --> 01:50:11,160
Speaker 1: Nikola Jokic, is going to be there for the Nuggets,

2419
01:50:11,160 --> 01:50:13,840
Speaker 1: we think, but a lot of his teammates might be missing.

2420
01:50:13,880 --> 01:50:18,000
Speaker 1: And who knows. The weird Wednesday night at home against

2421
01:50:18,040 --> 01:50:20,960
Speaker 1: a traveling team that's banged up. Maybe there's a good

2422
01:50:20,960 --> 01:50:22,759
Speaker 1: shot for the Pacers to do something tonight.

2423
01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:25,880
Speaker 2: Ab quarter of the way into the season. It's the

2424
01:50:25,920 --> 01:50:27,360
Speaker 2: best thing about this Pacer.

2425
01:50:27,160 --> 01:50:32,120
Speaker 1: Season, potentially getting a lottery pick at the end of

2426
01:50:32,120 --> 01:50:32,400
Speaker 1: the year.

2427
01:50:32,439 --> 01:50:33,960
Speaker 5: I doesn't saying they had that they have their own

2428
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:36,280
Speaker 5: first round pick. Again, I'd say that's the best The.

2429
01:50:36,240 --> 01:50:40,000
Speaker 4: Game winner Quinn Jackson had against the Warriors way back when.

2430
01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:43,160
Speaker 2: Over the game owner, you're not allowed to say anything

2431
01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:45,840
Speaker 2: draft related. What would be your answer, Thank you?

2432
01:50:45,920 --> 01:50:46,519
Speaker 3: I gave you mine?

2433
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:48,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd say to Sika the other.

2434
01:50:48,080 --> 01:50:52,240
Speaker 2: Night, I'd lean to Siakam, Yeah, it's just kind of disappointing,

2435
01:50:52,280 --> 01:50:54,560
Speaker 2: Like you can't say, Jarris Walker.

2436
01:50:55,520 --> 01:50:58,160
Speaker 3: Oh no, I have to choose a moment, right, But.

2437
01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:00,479
Speaker 2: Like you know, individual players here, sometimes in the back teams,

2438
01:51:00,479 --> 01:51:03,400
Speaker 2: you still have young talent that showing you some of

2439
01:51:03,439 --> 01:51:06,000
Speaker 2: it ain't been that. You know, you've asked a lot

2440
01:51:06,080 --> 01:51:10,120
Speaker 2: out of Benedict Matheren, Andrew Nemhart. Obviously Matherin's been out

2441
01:51:10,439 --> 01:51:12,920
Speaker 2: or was out for a while there, you know, nem

2442
01:51:12,960 --> 01:51:15,160
Speaker 2: Hard of course, miss Time. I think they've largely been

2443
01:51:15,320 --> 01:51:20,120
Speaker 2: you know, fine in their expanded roles. But yeah, Walker

2444
01:51:20,160 --> 01:51:23,280
Speaker 2: is probably the one that would fall into the disappointing category.

2445
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,599
Speaker 2: Not that you were like expecting to find some center

2446
01:51:26,640 --> 01:51:28,880
Speaker 2: of the future situation here. I think the centers have

2447
01:51:28,920 --> 01:51:31,880
Speaker 2: been okay. Yeah, I do think Isaiah Jackson is starting

2448
01:51:31,880 --> 01:51:33,280
Speaker 2: to get a little bit healthier and maybe just him

2449
01:51:33,280 --> 01:51:35,519
Speaker 2: in the second unit is a little bit more his

2450
01:51:36,320 --> 01:51:38,200
Speaker 2: cup of tea. And you know, one thing about Jay

2451
01:51:38,240 --> 01:51:41,360
Speaker 2: Huff going in the starting lineup, I'm reminded of Pascal

2452
01:51:41,360 --> 01:51:44,760
Speaker 2: Siakam's comments about Miles Turner when he was here and

2453
01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:47,519
Speaker 2: how he always wanted, was always intrigued by the idea

2454
01:51:47,520 --> 01:51:50,479
Speaker 2: of playing next to Turner because of Turner's ability to

2455
01:51:50,560 --> 01:51:54,200
Speaker 2: stretch the floor. That is something Jay Huff brings the table.

2456
01:51:54,520 --> 01:51:56,320
Speaker 2: You are you're having to close out on Jay Huff

2457
01:51:56,320 --> 01:51:58,280
Speaker 2: more than you have to close out on Isaiah Jackson

2458
01:51:58,520 --> 01:52:01,479
Speaker 2: or Tony Bradley. So not to say that Jay Huff

2459
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:03,639
Speaker 2: is Miles Turner, I want to make sure I'm clear there,

2460
01:52:04,360 --> 01:52:06,560
Speaker 2: but I do think that aspect of having Huff in

2461
01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:10,160
Speaker 2: the starting lineup, you would think would be more beneficial

2462
01:52:10,479 --> 01:52:12,640
Speaker 2: to see them on the offensive end. And you know

2463
01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:16,800
Speaker 2: Huff defensively, Hell, he leads the league in blocks.

2464
01:52:17,439 --> 01:52:18,080
Speaker 3: That he does.

2465
01:52:18,760 --> 01:52:22,640
Speaker 4: And if you're looking for other things to perhaps be

2466
01:52:22,760 --> 01:52:25,080
Speaker 4: happy about, if you're a Pacers fans going through it,

2467
01:52:25,760 --> 01:52:27,639
Speaker 4: the Bucks I believe I lost eight of their last

2468
01:52:27,720 --> 01:52:28,719
Speaker 4: nine and they stink.

2469
01:52:29,479 --> 01:52:33,120
Speaker 3: So there you go. Grass is not always great. Yes,

2470
01:52:33,160 --> 01:52:34,439
Speaker 3: they stink right now. They are terrible.

2471
01:52:34,520 --> 01:52:36,920
Speaker 1: Would you guys, what was your big takeaway one or

2472
01:52:36,920 --> 01:52:39,680
Speaker 1: two things from conversation with Rick yesterday.

2473
01:52:40,439 --> 01:52:42,600
Speaker 3: That Roger Godell camp find him.

2474
01:52:42,600 --> 01:52:43,960
Speaker 1: That was great, That was fun.

2475
01:52:44,240 --> 01:52:46,400
Speaker 2: Mark you have that audio that was excellent. So for

2476
01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:50,280
Speaker 2: those that missed it yesterday, Rick Carlisle was, well, I

2477
01:52:50,320 --> 01:52:51,800
Speaker 2: think he just kind of brought up did you bring

2478
01:52:51,880 --> 01:52:54,160
Speaker 2: up the Colts organically or I don't know, maybe i'd

2479
01:52:54,400 --> 01:52:57,040
Speaker 2: mentioned the culture applying He did, And next thing you know,

2480
01:52:57,080 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 2: he was that was quite a screwing his favorite team.

2481
01:53:00,479 --> 01:53:02,360
Speaker 2: That's how it got started. I asked him what his

2482
01:53:02,400 --> 01:53:04,680
Speaker 2: favorite team was growing up, and the next thing you know,

2483
01:53:04,760 --> 01:53:06,519
Speaker 2: he talked about how his favorite football team right now

2484
01:53:06,600 --> 01:53:08,559
Speaker 2: is the Colts, and Mark he had some comments about

2485
01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:09,040
Speaker 2: the officials.

2486
01:53:09,080 --> 01:53:12,800
Speaker 8: What a screwing that was. He ain't gonna get me.

2487
01:53:13,600 --> 01:53:14,880
Speaker 3: I love that Adam.

2488
01:53:15,080 --> 01:53:18,360
Speaker 8: Adam could get me by that, but Goodell can't. He can't.

2489
01:53:18,520 --> 01:53:19,880
Speaker 8: He can't get he can't touch me.

2490
01:53:21,240 --> 01:53:26,160
Speaker 1: Are So wouldn't it be awesome if moving forward, Shane

2491
01:53:26,200 --> 01:53:29,360
Speaker 1: Steichen can pitch as much as he wants to about

2492
01:53:29,439 --> 01:53:32,840
Speaker 1: when the Pacers get screwed, and Rick Carlile can just

2493
01:53:33,040 --> 01:53:36,000
Speaker 1: go off on NFL officials when the Colts get so,

2494
01:53:36,040 --> 01:53:36,559
Speaker 1: I said.

2495
01:53:36,320 --> 01:53:37,280
Speaker 3: Treat it like home room.

2496
01:53:37,800 --> 01:53:40,120
Speaker 5: Carlisle passes his notes to Shane, like I really need

2497
01:53:40,160 --> 01:53:42,080
Speaker 5: you to rip this guy to shreds, and then Shane

2498
01:53:42,120 --> 01:53:44,559
Speaker 5: slides it over like okay, you get this official okay,

2499
01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:46,479
Speaker 5: and they can each go off and they can't get

2500
01:53:46,479 --> 01:53:48,720
Speaker 5: fined by the other leagues. And I think that's a

2501
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:50,599
Speaker 5: genius idea on my part.

2502
01:53:50,680 --> 01:53:53,599
Speaker 1: This is exactly what this. You should be here for this, James,

2503
01:53:53,640 --> 01:53:56,400
Speaker 1: that's prox. That's petty by proxy right there.

2504
01:53:56,520 --> 01:54:01,880
Speaker 2: I love it. There is a better chance I win

2505
01:54:01,920 --> 01:54:04,680
Speaker 2: the Boston Marathon next year than Shane Styken calls out

2506
01:54:04,760 --> 01:54:06,400
Speaker 2: NBA official press conference.

2507
01:54:07,560 --> 01:54:08,960
Speaker 1: It'd still be awesome, though, wouldn't it.

2508
01:54:09,000 --> 01:54:10,920
Speaker 4: You know what, if they were coming off a win,

2509
01:54:10,960 --> 01:54:13,400
Speaker 4: I would probably ask him about it, But now it

2510
01:54:13,400 --> 01:54:15,280
Speaker 4: does not seem like the appropriate time to be joking.

2511
01:54:16,040 --> 01:54:18,639
Speaker 3: Jacksonville on Sunday. Yeah, I was thinking about it because,

2512
01:54:18,800 --> 01:54:19,200
Speaker 3: I mean.

2513
01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:21,759
Speaker 2: Shane ever dropped the joke in a press conference.

2514
01:54:23,280 --> 01:54:25,160
Speaker 4: I don't know about jokes. He's been friendly at time.

2515
01:54:25,200 --> 01:54:27,360
Speaker 4: He's giving you a yeah friendly, I'm not. I'm not,

2516
01:54:27,520 --> 01:54:30,439
Speaker 4: you know, said joke. I like an actual joke.

2517
01:54:31,760 --> 01:54:33,680
Speaker 3: I'm racking my brain right now. I can't think of it.

2518
01:54:33,760 --> 01:54:35,040
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard him make an actual joke?

2519
01:54:35,960 --> 01:54:39,560
Speaker 2: Holiday rankings last week he ranked Thanksgiving one, he ranked

2520
01:54:39,600 --> 01:54:42,120
Speaker 2: Christmas two, and then he ranked fourth of July three.

2521
01:54:42,160 --> 01:54:43,960
Speaker 2: He said his wife influenced a little bit of the

2522
01:54:43,960 --> 01:54:46,800
Speaker 2: fourth of July. I think those are pretty good rankings.

2523
01:54:46,880 --> 01:54:49,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think go Christmas one, Thanksgiving two, and

2524
01:54:49,360 --> 01:54:50,320
Speaker 1: fourth of July three.

2525
01:54:51,760 --> 01:54:53,720
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think fourth of July is up there

2526
01:54:53,760 --> 01:54:54,120
Speaker 3: for sure.

2527
01:54:54,360 --> 01:54:57,200
Speaker 2: Just the weather is so good. I obviously our country,

2528
01:54:57,800 --> 01:54:58,800
Speaker 2: but yeah.

2529
01:54:58,760 --> 01:54:59,440
Speaker 3: A pretty big deal.

2530
01:54:59,600 --> 01:55:05,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, big Arbor Day fan over here over there.

2531
01:55:06,440 --> 01:55:07,920
Speaker 3: I'm a fan of whatever day I gotta go to

2532
01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:08,920
Speaker 3: work about. That's true.

2533
01:55:10,200 --> 01:55:13,160
Speaker 1: This whole heard, this whole story this week about how

2534
01:55:13,200 --> 01:55:16,360
Speaker 1: Christmas is essentially the way we celebrate and everything now

2535
01:55:16,720 --> 01:55:20,000
Speaker 1: in modern times is essentially a Coca Cola marketing thing

2536
01:55:20,480 --> 01:55:23,440
Speaker 1: that came in the early twentieth century, and that like

2537
01:55:23,640 --> 01:55:27,800
Speaker 1: before that, Easter was the big most celebrated holiday back

2538
01:55:27,800 --> 01:55:28,920
Speaker 1: and way way back.

2539
01:55:28,760 --> 01:55:29,200
Speaker 3: Way back.

2540
01:55:29,240 --> 01:55:31,640
Speaker 1: When was this like in the up until like the

2541
01:55:31,720 --> 01:55:34,160
Speaker 1: nineteen hundreds, up until like nineteen hundred.

2542
01:55:34,880 --> 01:55:36,600
Speaker 3: Well, I'll learned something new today.

2543
01:55:36,920 --> 01:55:40,480
Speaker 1: And that's why I have Redden White cans. And Santa

2544
01:55:40,520 --> 01:55:44,040
Speaker 1: Claus is essentially kind of an ultimate creation. And the

2545
01:55:44,080 --> 01:55:48,480
Speaker 1: way we view Santa Claus now, Santa Claus is marketing

2546
01:55:48,480 --> 01:55:49,400
Speaker 1: from Coca it is.

2547
01:55:49,640 --> 01:55:51,960
Speaker 4: I was told this, I've been told to say this

2548
01:55:52,040 --> 01:55:53,520
Speaker 4: on the airways, But Coca.

2549
01:55:53,280 --> 01:55:55,600
Speaker 1: Cola brought him into the the mainstream.

2550
01:55:56,320 --> 01:55:59,040
Speaker 2: I had no idea. It was like a documentary.

2551
01:55:59,200 --> 01:55:59,640
Speaker 8: Check it out.

2552
01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:02,360
Speaker 3: Coca was that real Coke was once in it. It

2553
01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:03,320
Speaker 3: was just a polar bears.

2554
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:05,280
Speaker 2: I didn't know that Santa was an imagine a purple

2555
01:56:05,320 --> 01:56:07,200
Speaker 2: and pink Sanna instead of a red light.

2556
01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:09,800
Speaker 1: In the fact that Coca Cola actually at one point

2557
01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:12,360
Speaker 1: in time, way back in the day, actually did have

2558
01:56:12,880 --> 01:56:13,920
Speaker 1: cocaine is part of it.

2559
01:56:14,000 --> 01:56:15,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was. I was not talking.

2560
01:56:15,440 --> 01:56:18,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, PEPSI like crampis then or something? What are they

2561
01:56:18,480 --> 01:56:19,400
Speaker 5: bringing the table here?

2562
01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:20,840
Speaker 1: Great? I don't know.

2563
01:56:21,080 --> 01:56:23,840
Speaker 4: All I know is uh again, Santa was always pretty

2564
01:56:23,840 --> 01:56:24,760
Speaker 4: selective growing up.

2565
01:56:25,120 --> 01:56:27,200
Speaker 1: All right, coming up in a moment, we'll tell you

2566
01:56:27,200 --> 01:56:29,520
Speaker 1: what we're going to keep our eyeballs and ears on

2567
01:56:29,560 --> 01:56:31,880
Speaker 1: tonight as we get ready for another busy night of

2568
01:56:31,880 --> 01:56:33,720
Speaker 1: sports right here in ninety three five and one o

2569
01:56:33,800 --> 01:56:35,960
Speaker 1: seven to five of the fan. We'll screwing that was

2570
01:56:36,080 --> 01:56:40,000
Speaker 1: that's what she said. Safe to say the Natives are

2571
01:56:40,040 --> 01:56:42,560
Speaker 1: restless when it comes to the Indianapolis Colts. We got

2572
01:56:42,560 --> 01:56:45,520
Speaker 1: a text from Tanner n He says, I know we're

2573
01:56:45,600 --> 01:56:49,360
Speaker 1: joking around, but Shane should never say anything about the NBA. Lol.

2574
01:56:49,400 --> 01:56:52,520
Speaker 1: He should keep his focus on not continuing to screw

2575
01:56:52,560 --> 01:56:55,880
Speaker 1: it up getting out coached, and focus on stopping the

2576
01:56:55,920 --> 01:56:59,720
Speaker 1: avalanche that has started. Mister, I have to be better,

2577
01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:04,080
Speaker 1: quote unquote. People were a tough crowd. It is a

2578
01:57:04,080 --> 01:57:08,040
Speaker 1: tough crowd, but they Kevin, the last several years have

2579
01:57:08,080 --> 01:57:10,960
Speaker 1: been nothing. You pointed it out nine to twelve in

2580
01:57:11,000 --> 01:57:13,800
Speaker 1: the month of December during this non playoffs drought here.

2581
01:57:13,920 --> 01:57:15,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't blame shame for that, though, I feel

2582
01:57:15,880 --> 01:57:18,480
Speaker 4: like the twenty twenty two season.

2583
01:57:19,240 --> 01:57:20,600
Speaker 2: That doesn't include all of shamee No.

2584
01:57:20,720 --> 01:57:21,800
Speaker 3: I was just gonna let it out there.

2585
01:57:21,840 --> 01:57:24,680
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty two, the year before he got here, they

2586
01:57:24,720 --> 01:57:27,400
Speaker 4: were horrendous, and that was with Jeff Saturday when they

2587
01:57:27,480 --> 01:57:30,880
Speaker 4: ended the year on a seven game losing streak. Twenty

2588
01:57:30,920 --> 01:57:34,360
Speaker 4: twenty three, you got to within a game one win

2589
01:57:34,400 --> 01:57:36,680
Speaker 4: of the playoffs with Gardner Minshew as your starting quarterback

2590
01:57:36,720 --> 01:57:38,640
Speaker 4: for most of that season. I would mark that as

2591
01:57:38,680 --> 01:57:43,560
Speaker 4: actually a positive for Saints Psychen. Last year, you can

2592
01:57:43,560 --> 01:57:46,280
Speaker 4: look at it and say you should have won some

2593
01:57:46,320 --> 01:57:50,560
Speaker 4: games you lost, but again, quarterback down Joe Flacko in there,

2594
01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:52,920
Speaker 4: he did not peel like he has this past year.

2595
01:57:53,720 --> 01:57:56,880
Speaker 4: Last year with the Colts, so again kind of a wash.

2596
01:57:56,920 --> 01:57:59,800
Speaker 4: And then this year I do think you're looking at him,

2597
01:58:00,040 --> 01:58:02,920
Speaker 4: but not only him, but just the entire team. This year,

2598
01:58:03,240 --> 01:58:08,240
Speaker 4: you have valid excuses that are starting to pile up

2599
01:58:08,280 --> 01:58:10,240
Speaker 4: a bit, because I do think having a quarterback with

2600
01:58:10,240 --> 01:58:13,080
Speaker 4: a broken leg playing is a valid excuse for maybe

2601
01:58:13,120 --> 01:58:16,560
Speaker 4: not having your offense where it needs to be. Your

2602
01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:20,960
Speaker 4: cornerback you traded for, supposed to be all world he's

2603
01:58:21,000 --> 01:58:24,800
Speaker 4: now out indefinitely the Forest Buckner neck injury. So things

2604
01:58:24,840 --> 01:58:27,760
Speaker 4: are piling up for you, new kicker, all the above, Yeah,

2605
01:58:27,920 --> 01:58:29,280
Speaker 4: but you got to be able to finish the season

2606
01:58:29,360 --> 01:58:30,040
Speaker 4: at some point.

2607
01:58:30,440 --> 01:58:30,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2608
01:58:31,720 --> 01:58:34,280
Speaker 2: Obviously the Jeff Saturday record is part of that. I

2609
01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:36,440
Speaker 2: guess one year of Frank Reich right twenty twenty one,

2610
01:58:36,480 --> 01:58:40,200
Speaker 2: if you want to go back to that. But I

2611
01:58:40,200 --> 01:58:42,240
Speaker 2: can't totally absolve Shane either. The last two years you

2612
01:58:42,240 --> 01:58:44,480
Speaker 2: have lost to Drew Lock, Taylor Heineke, and Jake Browne

2613
01:58:45,600 --> 01:58:50,720
Speaker 2: in meaningful, meaningful games by significant, significant margins. It's not

2614
01:58:50,760 --> 01:58:51,880
Speaker 2: like those games were close either.

2615
01:58:51,920 --> 01:58:54,480
Speaker 4: So here's my question. Is it Shane's fault that JT

2616
01:58:54,640 --> 01:58:55,840
Speaker 4: dropped the ball at Denver?

2617
01:58:56,200 --> 01:58:56,360
Speaker 8: No?

2618
01:58:56,360 --> 01:58:58,680
Speaker 2: No, no, again, Like I don't think all of it is,

2619
01:58:58,760 --> 01:59:02,200
Speaker 2: but getting steam roll by Drew Locke, getting team rolls

2620
01:59:02,200 --> 01:59:05,720
Speaker 2: by Taylor Heineke, getting steam rolled by Jake Browning, you

2621
01:59:05,760 --> 01:59:09,000
Speaker 2: can't ignore all of it. So I think in general,

2622
01:59:09,760 --> 01:59:14,360
Speaker 2: it's just a I you the word used, the word massive,

2623
01:59:14,360 --> 01:59:19,000
Speaker 2: probably too much. I mean, it's it is such a

2624
01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:22,400
Speaker 2: critical month of the season for the twenty twenty five

2625
01:59:22,440 --> 01:59:25,720
Speaker 2: Colts obviously, and then if you want to, you could

2626
01:59:25,760 --> 01:59:28,600
Speaker 2: probably make a case it's a huge month or the

2627
01:59:28,640 --> 01:59:30,440
Speaker 2: future of your franchise.

2628
01:59:30,480 --> 01:59:32,640
Speaker 3: I get the year a quart about this, I get your.

2629
01:59:32,560 --> 01:59:34,680
Speaker 2: Little back into the corner based off the two first

2630
01:59:34,760 --> 01:59:38,400
Speaker 2: round picks. But you know, any time, like let's say

2631
01:59:38,440 --> 01:59:40,880
Speaker 2: the cult wart to miss the playoffs, anytime a head

2632
01:59:40,880 --> 01:59:43,720
Speaker 2: coach in today's NFL misses the playoffs in each of

2633
01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:47,040
Speaker 2: their first three seasons, questions arise. Then if you want

2634
01:59:47,040 --> 01:59:49,160
Speaker 2: to go over to Chris Ballad. Of course, if you

2635
01:59:49,200 --> 01:59:51,400
Speaker 2: were to missed the playoffs, that'd be what two playoff

2636
01:59:51,440 --> 01:59:54,360
Speaker 2: appearances in nine years, no division titles, one playoff win.

2637
01:59:54,480 --> 01:59:56,160
Speaker 4: You know again, you know I have to like memorized

2638
01:59:56,680 --> 01:59:58,800
Speaker 4: down to the t I know, I feel like it's

2639
01:59:58,840 --> 02:00:02,720
Speaker 4: kind of crazy. Sorry, here's my question. We have talked

2640
02:00:02,720 --> 02:00:04,680
Speaker 4: a lot about the future of Chris Baller, not only

2641
02:00:04,760 --> 02:00:06,360
Speaker 4: just for this season, but just over the last couple

2642
02:00:06,400 --> 02:00:10,280
Speaker 4: of years. Is Shane sticking safe from all of that

2643
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:13,440
Speaker 4: make the playoff, miss the playoffs? Is he your coach

2644
02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:15,920
Speaker 4: going forward? Like, I don't want to get to that point.

2645
02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:17,560
Speaker 4: I don't think that. You know, they're eight and four

2646
02:00:17,640 --> 02:00:18,880
Speaker 4: right now. I don't want to make a team like,

2647
02:00:18,880 --> 02:00:21,800
Speaker 4: oh my god, he's on the hot seat. But I

2648
02:00:21,840 --> 02:00:26,000
Speaker 4: do wonder are they still sore viewed as a package deal?

2649
02:00:26,200 --> 02:00:28,200
Speaker 2: I know, and that's you know, I asked Carlier Say

2650
02:00:28,200 --> 02:00:30,480
Speaker 2: Gordon that question back at the first press conforce.

2651
02:00:30,520 --> 02:00:33,560
Speaker 4: I don't know if she truly understood the framing of

2652
02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:34,000
Speaker 4: the question.

2653
02:00:34,080 --> 02:00:35,640
Speaker 2: I know, I think, and I don't know if she

2654
02:00:35,720 --> 02:00:38,880
Speaker 2: thought of it, because you know the prior history of

2655
02:00:39,680 --> 02:00:41,600
Speaker 2: you know, me being there and covering the team when

2656
02:00:41,720 --> 02:00:43,720
Speaker 2: Chuck mcdonne and Ryan Gregson were together. She took it

2657
02:00:43,760 --> 02:00:46,440
Speaker 2: down that path of like, no, I do think people

2658
02:00:46,440 --> 02:00:48,000
Speaker 2: need to be on the same page right and they

2659
02:00:48,000 --> 02:00:50,800
Speaker 2: can work together. Coach, I was asking more of you

2660
02:00:50,840 --> 02:00:53,520
Speaker 2: know again, do you believe the head coach and GM

2661
02:00:53,520 --> 02:00:55,880
Speaker 2: should come and go together? Hired in the same cycle,

2662
02:00:56,280 --> 02:00:58,920
Speaker 2: not hired in the same cycle, right right, because that's

2663
02:00:58,960 --> 02:01:03,160
Speaker 2: how I think it should be. But to your question, James,

2664
02:01:04,640 --> 02:01:06,440
Speaker 2: if you were to give a letter grade for Chris

2665
02:01:06,480 --> 02:01:09,880
Speaker 2: Ballard's eight years plus and give a letter grade for

2666
02:01:09,920 --> 02:01:12,760
Speaker 2: Shane Steichen's two years plus, to me, the letter grades

2667
02:01:12,760 --> 02:01:18,800
Speaker 2: are different, so like Chris bows should be on thinner

2668
02:01:18,840 --> 02:01:20,680
Speaker 2: ice and Shane stikeen. I guess it is like to

2669
02:01:20,760 --> 02:01:24,320
Speaker 2: put it as dicinctly as possible, But if I were

2670
02:01:24,360 --> 02:01:28,040
Speaker 2: going to restart the whole thing, it's awkward, man, it

2671
02:01:28,080 --> 02:01:31,400
Speaker 2: gets Look, Tennessee is no better example of it. They

2672
02:01:31,440 --> 02:01:34,000
Speaker 2: fired John Robinson their GM, kind of out of the

2673
02:01:34,000 --> 02:01:37,200
Speaker 2: blue late a few seasons ago. Next thing you know,

2674
02:01:37,280 --> 02:01:39,360
Speaker 2: you bring in a new GM, and here's Mike Rabel,

2675
02:01:39,680 --> 02:01:42,440
Speaker 2: a very accomplished head coach, i'd argue, a very good

2676
02:01:42,480 --> 02:01:46,440
Speaker 2: head coach, and at the first sign of a little

2677
02:01:46,440 --> 02:01:50,120
Speaker 2: bit of slippage, Rabel's gone. And now what are they?

2678
02:01:50,160 --> 02:01:53,400
Speaker 2: Three gms later and three head coaches later, it's just yeah, meanwhile,

2679
02:01:53,520 --> 02:01:56,720
Speaker 2: Rabel's what eleven and two exactly? It gets so complicated

2680
02:01:56,840 --> 02:02:01,760
Speaker 2: so quick. So yeah, I we're not there yet, as

2681
02:02:01,800 --> 02:02:05,040
Speaker 2: you just alluded to, but we could be. We could

2682
02:02:05,040 --> 02:02:07,160
Speaker 2: be there in a couple of weeks. That's how big

2683
02:02:07,800 --> 02:02:08,920
Speaker 2: the month of December.

2684
02:02:08,640 --> 02:02:12,200
Speaker 1: Is, And how much does the narrative change if the

2685
02:02:12,200 --> 02:02:14,600
Speaker 1: Colts just go down there and get a win against Jacksonville.

2686
02:02:14,680 --> 02:02:16,520
Speaker 1: Now they're in first place, and they got the head

2687
02:02:16,560 --> 02:02:18,920
Speaker 1: to head and they're three and one now in the division.

2688
02:02:18,960 --> 02:02:20,800
Speaker 1: I know they still have a tough schedule coming up,

2689
02:02:20,840 --> 02:02:22,879
Speaker 1: but does that change the narrative altogether?

2690
02:02:23,000 --> 02:02:26,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean in the immediacy, obviously, it's huge. You know,

2691
02:02:26,440 --> 02:02:29,160
Speaker 2: there are still you know, basically a win on Sunday

2692
02:02:29,160 --> 02:02:30,720
Speaker 2: would put you back on the right side of the

2693
02:02:30,760 --> 02:02:34,000
Speaker 2: eight ball in terms of AFC South. You still will

2694
02:02:34,000 --> 02:02:38,400
Speaker 2: need another notable winner two down the stretch. I found

2695
02:02:38,400 --> 02:02:40,080
Speaker 2: it interesting on Monday. I forget if it was josh

2696
02:02:40,120 --> 02:02:42,520
Speaker 2: Awens or Mooney Ward. I think it was Mooney James

2697
02:02:42,520 --> 02:02:44,920
Speaker 2: that said, if we just win our three divisional games

2698
02:02:44,960 --> 02:02:50,360
Speaker 2: were in and they're right, you know, But so I'm

2699
02:02:50,400 --> 02:02:52,800
Speaker 2: curious if they've heard that message from above, I guess

2700
02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:53,280
Speaker 2: is why.

2701
02:02:54,200 --> 02:02:56,800
Speaker 4: I say, yeah, But I also think that his perspective

2702
02:02:56,880 --> 02:02:58,360
Speaker 4: might be a little bit different because he's been in

2703
02:02:58,400 --> 02:03:02,280
Speaker 4: the situation before previously with playoff bound teams. He's played

2704
02:03:02,320 --> 02:03:05,200
Speaker 4: a lot of big games throughout his career, so maybe

2705
02:03:05,240 --> 02:03:07,800
Speaker 4: he just knows himself personally what it takes to get

2706
02:03:07,800 --> 02:03:09,800
Speaker 4: over the top. And also maybe he's not carrying the

2707
02:03:09,800 --> 02:03:14,040
Speaker 4: baggage of we haven't won in Jacksonville forever, like that's

2708
02:03:14,040 --> 02:03:15,640
Speaker 4: not really his streak. I know you ask me about

2709
02:03:15,680 --> 02:03:18,640
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones, but I do wonder about the other guys.

2710
02:03:18,680 --> 02:03:20,000
Speaker 4: That's seep into your bones a little bit.

2711
02:03:20,080 --> 02:03:21,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and getting at eight and four, you've earned the

2712
02:03:21,680 --> 02:03:24,400
Speaker 2: right for these games, so kudos to them.

2713
02:03:24,680 --> 02:03:26,720
Speaker 1: All right, that's gonna wrap it up for us tonight,

2714
02:03:27,320 --> 02:03:30,920
Speaker 1: Pacers seven o'clock at the Fieldhouse Nuggets. Listen to it

2715
02:03:30,960 --> 02:03:33,400
Speaker 1: live here. You can watch it on TV on FANDUL.

2716
02:03:33,440 --> 02:03:34,000
Speaker 1: Have a great day.
