1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,720 Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to be honest with you. It 2 00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: was supposed to be yesterday and it was pretty rough 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: you know. The I thought it was going to be 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: even hotter than it was, but it's pretty rough out. 5 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: We have one more day and then tomorrow polar vortex, right, 6 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: Is that how this works? 7 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 2: Polar vortex? 8 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 1: It is like seventy tomorrow, right, forty five degree difference 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: because it's going to be one hundred and fifteen degrees today. 10 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: That much we know it's going to be a major 11 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: difference apparently. Also, and the reason I mentioned that is 12 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: because and it probably was pretty good timing and off 13 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: day for the Colts in terms of camp. So no 14 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: camp activity today, so we have no updates in terms 15 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: of the health status. Probably a good thing because at 16 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: the end of the day yesterday is when you started 17 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: to see for the first time some players get a 18 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: little bit dinged up, Juju Brents, obviously, Jalen Jones, who 19 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: we had mentioned, Michael Pittman Jr. I don't know other 20 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: than Jalen Jones, how severe some of those may be. 21 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying Jalen Jones is severe, but as 22 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: Stephen Holder told us yesterday, when we had him on 23 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: the program. Whenever you have a guy that is running, 24 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, totally isolated and just reaches for the back 25 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: of his leg and then goes down, you know right there, 26 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: it's a hamstring of some sort or an issue with 27 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: the hamstring. So we'll see what the latest is on that. 28 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: But an off day today for the Colts. More on 29 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: the Colts and one of the storylines about them in 30 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: just a minute. Here, I'll tell you one thing that 31 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: fascinates me, fascinates me having nothing to do with sports, 32 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: But real quick, I will mention, I will admit to 33 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: the fact that, like I was kind of glued to 34 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: this last night, and maybe I'm the only one. I'd 35 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: like to know if I'm the only one that was 36 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: fascinated by the following. But as you know, Eddie, I 37 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: went back. I guess it would have been two years ago. Yeah, 38 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: to complete my college degree, right, and so in that 39 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: I had to basically just pick up a bunch of electives, 40 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: so I didn't the courses that I had taken within 41 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: my major I had mostly accomplished, but it was just 42 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: all of those auxiliary, you know, random courses one hundred, 43 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: two hundred level courses that I had to get to 44 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: complete the degree. Yeah, the prerequisites, the prerequisites, yes, I 45 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: did them as post requisites. The class that I genuinely enjoyed. 46 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: I mean I really enjoyed it, and I found it interesting. 47 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: And I've got to be the only one, but I 48 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: had to take basically an entry level geology course and 49 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: just the study of plate tectonics and the earth and 50 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: rocks and all of that. I found it absolutely fascinating. 51 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: I loved it, and I wouldn't have when I was twenty, 52 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: but now you know, it was a fun hobby to 53 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: have to read all about it and take quizzes on 54 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: it and whatever else. But obviously last night, so as 55 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: a result of that, the the action of tsunamis after 56 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: an earthquake fascinate me. And the West Coast, I think, 57 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: and my understanding is Hawaii kind of dodged one here. 58 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: I've got a really good buddy who I met during 59 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl when the Colts, the famous Peyton Manning 60 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: liquored up kicker Pro Bowl, that particular Pro Bowl. I 61 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: actually was covering that Pro Bowl, credentialed to cover it 62 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: in Honolulu. Rough gig I realized for Channel six and 63 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: perfect timing too, because that whole storyline of Manning kind 64 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: of blew up. And so I go out there, and 65 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: instead of paying for two of us to go out, 66 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: which totally understandably, WRTV Channel six got me a freelance 67 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: photographer from the Honolulu affiliate. And that guy and I 68 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: we worked together for one day, but he was my 69 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: age and we have been friends ever since. And I 70 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: was talking to him last night, probably at one point 71 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: thirty in the morning hour time, and they were bracing 72 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: for it, the tsunami that was coming in. And my 73 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: understanding is that Hawaii dodged what they thought was going 74 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: to be even worse. But I'm curious, Eddie. You tell me, 75 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: does that make me like an uber dork? That that 76 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: stuff fascinates me? And then I was glued to it? 77 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: No, because that is me. I think we see. We 78 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 2: share a lot of similarities of intrigues, s Jake, I 79 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 2: just don't often express them like you did. 80 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: This is one of the more disturbing things I've discovered 81 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: in my life. So we have things in common. 82 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 2: We enjoy serially serial killers and oh yeah, okay, I 83 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 2: just don't like to go to grave sites to find 84 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: damous people's where they're buried. 85 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: You know I do. I have a fascination with cerial killers. 86 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie about that. And I've been known 87 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: in my time to kill cereal because I love eating 88 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: and I eat it out of a big moose cup real. 89 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: People think that's weird I eat. I never eat cereal 90 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: for breakfast, but I eat it throughout the course of 91 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: the day. But I always eat it out of one 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: of the big thirty two ounce plastic cups. I think 93 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: it's easier than eating it out of a bowl. 94 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 2: Now, what's cereally of choice? Boy? 95 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: That's a great question. And I go in a lot 96 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: of different waves on this. Sometimes I just go through 97 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: a Raisin brand fase, sometimes Lucky Charms. I like the 98 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: cap'n Crunch, but I don't like the film left on 99 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: the mouth. I can go with some Applejacks. Fruity Pebbles 100 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: is one that has always been a staple, and then 101 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 1: I got older and realized that there's not a single 102 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: thing that's healthy about it, and so that's kind of 103 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: been phased out. I like the what's the one like 104 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: honey honey nut, not honey nut Cheerio's, but any honey 105 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: there's one that used to be a cluster like Oh's 106 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: something Oh's and it was like little rings that had 107 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: all kinds of like honey nut coconut stuff on it 108 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: or something. I was into those. I like it all. Really, 109 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: I'm a serial guy. But good afternoon to you. My 110 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: name is Jake Quarry. That is the voice of Eddie Garrison. 111 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: It is Quary and Company here on ninety three five 112 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: one oh seven five. The fan Eddie is back from yesterday. 113 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: You went to the Reds game? Is that correct? 114 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 3: Yeah? 115 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: I had to do some errands. I had run some 116 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: errand yesterday as well during the show. So how was 117 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 2: the in terms of Great America Ballpark? What was They 118 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 2: played the Dodgers? 119 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: Right, it did? 120 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 3: Yes? 121 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: What was the Dodger representation at said game? I think 122 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: it was fifty to fifty really? Yeah, I mean I 123 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: would have guessed thirty percent Dodger fans, but that seems 124 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: a little high. 125 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: There's a lot of blue, a lot of blue. I'm 126 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 2: sure there's gonna be a ton more today because showy 127 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 2: Atani's on the mound. 128 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: Really yep? Okay, then yes, that is absolutely Skeens and 129 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: Otani are two of them that you would pay to 130 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: go see pitch, right. 131 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, one hundred percent. I saw Paul Skeens when 132 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 2: he was here with the Indians. Oh yeah, for a 133 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 2: brief period he was here. You know, it's interesting when 134 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,359 Speaker 2: you buy tickets, you know, that's one thing that you 135 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 2: just never know is who's going to be in rotation 136 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: when you buy them in advance. I mean, forever, one 137 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: of my goals in my you know, when I was 138 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 2: of the age when the guy was pitching, I always 139 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: wanted to see Nolan Ryan pitch. And like the two 140 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 2: times that he that I was going to a game 141 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: for the team that he was playing, he was I 142 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 2: think once he was a day or two away from rotation, 143 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: and then once. 144 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: He he they pulled him. He did not start, and 145 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, but that would have been pretty awesome. So 146 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: the Colts have the day off today, and I got 147 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: to thinking about this last night, three twenty eight in 148 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: the morning during a brain dropping I'm sitting there laying 149 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: and I'm thank you, and I'm figuring out, you know, 150 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: planning out my day as I always do, and I'm 151 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: thinking about the fact that Dave Revson's going to join 152 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: us coming up today and we'll preview a Little Big 153 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: ten Football. I'm thinking about the fact that Joel Erickson's 154 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: going to join us to talk a little Colts. Debbie Antonelli, 155 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: who is a favorite on the program, is going to 156 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: join us in the two o'clock hour today. And I'm 157 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: also paying attention to the tsunami thing, and you know, 158 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: I'm interested by that and hoping the best for my 159 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: buddy Rob out in Hawaii and others, and of course 160 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: the West Coast in general. But over all of that, 161 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: I got to thinking about something and then today our 162 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: friend Chiefs fan Steve sent me a text, and I thought, 163 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: great minds think alike. I mean, you know, look, Steve 164 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: and I went to an Indians game together and the 165 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: Indians first baseman name was Beer, and so we that 166 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: we had to cheer for that guy, you know, really 167 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: hard the entire game. And in addition to that, Steve's 168 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, he's got Milton, the Great Rescue Dog, and 169 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: so he's a lover of rescue animals, and I'm with us. 170 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: So Steve and I are spirit animals in many regards 171 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: except for the fact he's a Chiefs fan. But he 172 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: asked me this question today and I thought, that's exactly 173 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: what I was thinking about last night. And admittedly this 174 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: is maybe looking a gift horse in the mouth. Maybe 175 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: this is being too nitpicky. Maybe it's grasping for a 176 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: storyline on an off day. I don't know. And I 177 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: keep going back to it, though, and that is to 178 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 1: put it in Steve's terms. He said, let me get 179 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: this straight. The Colts draft did Anthony Richardson fourth overall 180 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: in the NFL Draft as their franchise quarterback, and they're 181 00:08:53,679 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: still trying to teach him how to play. And I thought, yeah, 182 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: that's that's a direct way of saying it. You know, 183 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: when you when you run into somebody that you haven't 184 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: seen in a while, you can either say, you know, 185 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: you need to tell them that they've gained a little weight, 186 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: and then you get the one person that just comes 187 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: up and goes, wow, you got fat. It's like, well, okay, 188 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: that's that's pretty direct. It feels like that's what you know. 189 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: Steve was pretty direct in it. And I can understand 190 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: and appreciate that Anthony Richardson yesterday apparently had a very 191 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: good day, and there is seemingly a lot of optimism 192 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: about the fact that Anthony Richardson is figuring out the 193 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: layups he's hitting, and he's finding accuracy in the intermediary range, 194 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: the eight to twelve yard pass, the quick pass across 195 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: the middle to Tyler Warren, et cetera. But at the 196 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: same time, while that's you're optimistic about that and you're 197 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: excited about it, at what point in a player's career 198 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: are they who they are? And at what point does 199 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: it become a danger and falling in love with the 200 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: what may be as opposed to being aware of what 201 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: has been and what it is. And I know that 202 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 1: Richardson and Zach Keifer, our friend who writes for The 203 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: Athletic Now, had an interesting article where, you know, Richardson 204 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: basically said like, I've got to and I'm paraphrasing, you know, 205 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: I've got to go all in now. I realize that, 206 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: you know, especially I think after the tap out he 207 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: got it. The light went off where he's like, Okay, 208 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: I've got a Now I know what it takes. But 209 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: when you draft a guy as your franchise quarterback, should 210 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: you not have especially if you're Chris Ballard and you 211 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: were in a situation where yes, I get it. Andrew 212 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: Luck retired, you know twenty six years ago. I get 213 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: it right. But with that, should you not at some 214 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: point say I've got to go with the guy. It's 215 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: it's a little bit surprising that not only did the 216 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: Colts give him that sort of a leash, but also 217 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: that he would opt for that leash. But then I 218 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: think about it, and I'm like, if I'm Ballard and 219 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: i know that my job security is going to rest 220 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: on the quarterback that I'm going to draft when I 221 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: finally am doing a I'm selecting my franchise quarterback. If 222 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: my owner is on board with me taking a guy 223 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: with high ceiling but still untapped potential, I'm going with 224 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: that guy because it gives me that much longer. It 225 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: gives me that much more rope of Hey, listen, no, 226 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: I just I need more time. If you could on 227 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: the project here, I need I need more time on 228 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: the group project. You know, when you when you're in 229 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: college and you've got to do a big project assignment, 230 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: if you have a professor that keeps extending you by 231 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: another six weeks, you're going to take it every time. Okay, sure, 232 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: I'll do it. Take me that much longer to get 233 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: the project done. It is a look and I know 234 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: what I'm saying here is an epiphany that has been 235 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: like a three year conversation. I get it, But at 236 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: what point do we stop getting excited about every single 237 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: flash of potential and just say, how do you determine 238 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: when the point is where you say, Okay, I understand 239 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: that there are the flashes, but we're not seeing it. 240 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: That is not the guy. That is hints of the guy, 241 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: but that's not the guy. And is do we believe 242 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: that this camp is it? Or does he get another 243 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: year and then another year? Because when he goes through 244 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: those drills, those seven on sevens or you know, eleven 245 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: on eleven's and he completes a pass, we convince ourselves 246 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: that that means this is it. And then you're like, eh, 247 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if it is it though, because it's 248 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: totally different when you're there at Lucas Oil Stadium and 249 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: there's seventy thousand people and a defense is flying and 250 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: all hell's breaking loose, and then it's eight yards over 251 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: the head, and the problem, I think for Richardson the 252 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: challenge for I have nothing against Anthony Richardson, as I mean, 253 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: obviously I don't know the guy all occasion or account 254 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: that I have, and being around him seems like a 255 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: nice young guy. I have nothing against him personally, and 256 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: I'm not all out on him. I understand the intrigue 257 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: of what he can be. But the one thing, Eddie 258 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: that alarms is the wrong word, but the one thing 259 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: that I just think we're overlooking. You can teach Anthony 260 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: Richardson or any quarterback footwork, you can teach Anthony Richardson, 261 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: or any quarterback technique. You can teach Anthony Richardson, or 262 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: any quarterback timing, you can teach Anthony Richardson or any 263 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: quarterback looking over defensive schemes. The one thing that I 264 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: don't think you can teach that I don't think Anthony 265 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: Richardson has ever mastered, is the mental fortitude of when 266 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: you throw an interception or when you throw an incomplete pass, 267 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: being the ted Lasso goldfish and letting it go and 268 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: going right back out. Because there are plays for me 269 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,119 Speaker 1: when I watch Anthony Richardson where when he does overthrow, 270 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: or it's fourth and four and there's an incomplete pass 271 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: or a missed assignment in terms of a missed route 272 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: by a receiver, or Richardson thinks it's going the other 273 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: way or whatever it may be. You can see his 274 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: shoulders slink and he comes to the sidelines and you think, 275 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: to yourself, here we go. This is going to be 276 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: one of those days where it's going to be seven 277 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: for twenty nine because it just seems like mentally the 278 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: that is a and that doesn't make him unique nor 279 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: a bad player. But Eddie, does that make sense what 280 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying And the fact that I worry about whether 281 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: or not we are not too far gone on trying 282 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: to make something here that we have enough evidence now 283 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: to know that you just can't make a concrete house 284 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: out of paper mache. He's not paper mache. But you 285 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: get what I'm saying. 286 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 2: O get what you're saying. I also think it's really 287 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 2: really hard. And I'm not sure who said this because 288 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 2: there's just been so many people that were, you know, 289 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 2: anti Anthony Richardson and pro Anthony Richardson when he was 290 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: coming into the league entering the draft. 291 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: Is that the. 292 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 2: NFL is not a developmental league like you don't see 293 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 2: many quarterbacks come out of college with the limited reps 294 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: that he did and somehow turn into a franchise quarterback 295 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 2: like you have to prove it at some level, whether 296 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: that's in high school, that you have the ability to 297 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 2: do it, or prove it, you know, at least one 298 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: season in college, like Joe Burrow did. But Joe Burrow 299 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: was also in college for four years, like he was 300 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 2: there and he got to experience a lot of different things. 301 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 2: And Anthony Richards and nothing either an Joe Burravitt. 302 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: Also was in college in a situation where he had 303 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: to wait his turn and continue to battle for a 304 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: throne before he got there. 305 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 2: Yes, in college, and I think, possibly Jake that what 306 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: really really set Anthony richardson back, it hurt him was 307 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: the fact that they gave him the keys to the offense. 308 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: They they I think the thing Bob Kravitt said this, Eddie, 309 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: and it's you make an excellent point there, and Bob 310 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: Kravitt said this, which I think is the best point 311 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: of all. And Kravitt said, I think it's interesting, and 312 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing Bob Kravitz, but he said this at the 313 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: start of camp. Bob Kravitt said, I think it's interesting 314 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: that the colts are asking for patients with Anthony Richards 315 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: and considering they had no patience in handing him the 316 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: franchise as soon as he got out off the plane. 317 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot of truth to that. 318 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: Like the Pivot or the one eighty on the a 319 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: pro coach of Anthony Richardson is pretty fascinating. And again 320 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: I listen, I'm not rooting against Anthony Richardson. I commend 321 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: the Colts for going out and creating competition by getting 322 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones to come in. I, as I mentioned yesterday, 323 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 1: appreciate and can respect the fact that Daniel Jones does 324 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: play a similar style as Anthony Richardson. So therefore, when 325 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: you are making the driver change in the middle of 326 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: the endurance race, you don't have to make a lot 327 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: of changes to the setup of the car. That's good. 328 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: I can see the I would say low risk potential, 329 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: high reward of Daniel Jones. Low risk is easy for 330 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: me to say when I'm not the one giving him 331 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: thirteen million dollars. But for a one year deal, you know, look, 332 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: you take a flyer on the guy, you use him 333 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: to kind of push Richardson. And then, as I keep saying, 334 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: if Daniel Jones is the starter, it's going to be 335 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: not because Daniel Jones won the job, it's going to 336 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: be because Anthony Richardson did not. And at this point, 337 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 1: I think if you look at it, you would have 338 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: to say that Richardson is probably the clubhouse leader, because 339 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 1: not that Richardson has done anything to really stand out, 340 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: but Jones has not, and Richardson hasn't done anything to 341 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: this point that really sets him back, and he's starting 342 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: to show some rhythm. But I just think there's a 343 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: danger in convincing yourself. 344 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 2: We all know. 345 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: It's the analogy I always give Eddie. We all know 346 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: that friend who's in a relationship with somebody where the 347 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: person's a dud and doesn't follow through on like seventy 348 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: percent of the plans, but when they do, like, it's 349 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: the best date ever, and so they just keep going 350 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: back to that well, and you're like, oh my gosh, 351 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: come on man. And I think that there's a level 352 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: of that. I think the Colts are intrigued, you know, 353 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: they are in love with the what could be as 354 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: opposed to what is or what has been, and it's 355 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: up to them to decide and determine whether or not 356 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: how long they let it go. I did think it 357 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: was interesting yesterday Jonathan Taylor that audio is available from 358 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: yesterday on the podcast page one oh seven five to 359 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: the fan dot Com, when Jonathan Taylor said that Daniel 360 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: Jones runs basically the city, He's like, I don't think 361 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: people realize how athletic this guy is and that he runs. Now, 362 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: he said, Daniel Jones runs like twenty two miles an hour. 363 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: Do they have like a radar gun on that? Is 364 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: that how they know. 365 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 2: That they have like tracking devices they put on the players? 366 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: Isn't am I hallucinating? Wasn't Jonathan Taylor in the game 367 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: against the Patriots several years ago when Hard Knocks was here? 368 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: Wasn't Jonathan Taylor clocked at twenty two miles an hour? 369 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 1: Wasn't that his speed in that breakaway score that put 370 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: that game away? 371 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 2: Could be close to that. 372 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: I'm almost convinced that's what it was. And I'm like, 373 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: wait a minute, So Daniel Jones has the same speed 374 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: as Jonathan Taylor. 375 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 2: So Jonathan Taylor's top speed twenty two point zero five 376 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 2: miles per hour. There you go, Okay, Daniel Jones was 377 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 2: twenty one point two. 378 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: What's Anthony Richardson? 379 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: I don't know. 380 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: I mean Richardson's fast and big, I mean Richardson's got 381 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,719 Speaker 1: to be way up there, right, because that's the thing 382 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,199 Speaker 1: about Richardson that I that I also go back to 383 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: I fall victim as well to falling in love with 384 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: the intrigue because of the fact, like if you look 385 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: at the New York game the Jets when it was 386 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: in the balance and Richardson basically carried them to a win, 387 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: which is awesome, but it has to happen more than once. 388 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: Did you happen to see Richardson speed? What do you 389 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: think yours is, Eddie? What's what are ours? 390 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 3: Oh? 391 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 2: God, I don't even want to talk about mine. 392 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: I would win a foot race right now between the 393 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: two of us. 394 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 2: Probably you I'm slow. 395 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,719 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, what do you think you're dealing with? 396 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: Carl Lewis here? I mean, come on, back in my day, 397 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: Back in my day, I was never fast. I was 398 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 1: at least relatively athletic. But like now, I'm telling you, 399 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: father time, all of a sudden, I mean you start, 400 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 1: I get about ten yards into a hundred meter dash 401 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: and I'm like, hello, hey, Jacob, any of the USFL 402 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: player has been called in to get a try out. 403 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: I think there are typically a couple I have not 404 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: looked there may be one or two on the Colts camp. 405 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: But the USFL, it's now the UFL, right, the United 406 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 1: Football League. I think that's right, but they're in some trouble. 407 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: But I think there are usually like ten to twelve 408 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: players league wide that get an opportunity. Dave Redson on 409 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: the program today, a little Big ten preview. We will 410 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: do with him also Joel A. Erickson. We will talk 411 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: about exactly what we just were, not only the Colts 412 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: quarterbacking competition, but a breakout yesterday that you hope carries forward. 413 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: Will let you know who that is as well. Big 414 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: One here on the hump day in his querying company 415 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 1: on the fan.

I did not, 428 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: never once. No no baseball camp, nothing, no basketball camp, no, 429 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: no football camp. 430 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 5: No. 431 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: Okay no like gnaw bone nothing. No, Okay, did you 432 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: ever camp out in the backyard? Did you ever get 433 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: a tent and like spend the night in the backyard 434 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: in a tent? I did camp out ones where Raccoon Lake? 435 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: Okay as a kid? 436 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough? 437 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 1: So I you you know, I'm curious about Purdue as well. 438 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: In Dave's thoughts on Purdue and the Big Ten, one 439 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: of the questions I want to talk to Dave Rebson 440 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: about when we have him from the Big Ten network is, 441 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: you know, we know obviously Ohio State. I think Oregon's 442 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: going to be really good. Penn State, you know, Penn 443 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: State is always going to be right there. But Penn 444 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: State doesn't it typically feel like Penn State every year. 445 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: If I was a Penn State beat writer, I would 446 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 1: every year. I would just have a boilerplate column written 447 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: already that says number five rated. Penn State was leading 448 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: Ohio State mid third quarter in the battle for Big 449 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: Ten supremacy when Ohio State went on a seventeen nothing 450 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: run in the last twelve minutes of the game to 451 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: hand the Nitney Lions their first loss of the year 452 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: and then just submit it by the boom. But the 453 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: Bank it's the same thing every year, every year, without fail. 454 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: I get super excited because I don't like Ohio State, 455 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: and every year without fail, I literally I'm like, Okay, 456 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,439 Speaker 1: this is gonna be Thank goodness, somebody's gonna knock out 457 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: Ohio State. 458 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 2: And I think it's going to be Penn State. 459 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: And they tease me every year, and I get super 460 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: excited because I go out and do whatever, and it's 461 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: a primetime game and I get home and it's ten 462 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 1: o'clock and I turn on the TV. I'm like, yes, yes, 463 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: Penn State is up twenty to seven in the third quarter. 464 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 2: Pulling them all five. Yes, that's right. 465 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: And then they end up losing twenty eight twenty Like 466 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: every year this happens. But I'm curious in the Big 467 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: Ten what other program it is that Dave Revsen or 468 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: that those that are really kind of analyzing these camps 469 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: are looking at saying that's a team that could be 470 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:51,959 Speaker 1: this year's Indiana. You know, Michigan State was really down Nebraska. 471 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: We've been waiting for. To Nebraska is to college football 472 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: what Anthony Richardson is to the colts. Like you keep saying, well, 473 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: we know it's there all the ingredients are there, it's 474 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: just a matter of finding consistency. 475 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 2: What about Wisconsin, that's another one. 476 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 1: Wisconsin's interesting because it's obviously a very good program. But 477 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: aren't they another one that every time it really comes 478 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 1: down to the brass tacks, Wisconsin stubs their own toe. 479 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: Well, see, I mean new head coach Luke Fickle second 480 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 2: year or going into his third year, I should say. 481 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: And remember when, I mean when they got him, that 482 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: was a huge coup. And he's a darn good coach. 483 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. Minnesota. Is Minnesota going to be good? 484 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:39,959 Speaker 2: USC? Are they going to be good? 485 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 5: Well? 486 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: USC, you would have I mean, there is no reason 487 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: for USC to have more than like two dry years, right, 488 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: I mean, just based on recruiting cycles alone. USC, you 489 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: would have to assume. That's the other thing, Eddie, when 490 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,959 Speaker 1: you mentioned you, you know, I'm still thinking and I listen, 491 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: guilty is charged here. And I love the fact that Washington, Oregon, UCLA, 492 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: and USC are in the big ten. I mean, it's 493 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: a logistical nightmare. It makes no sense, it's probably not 494 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 1: cost feasible. It's a little bit absurd. It's totally weird 495 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: sounding and feeling to this day, but I do love it, 496 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: but it still is taking a while for me to 497 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: get used to it. When you mentioned that, I'm like, 498 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: what USC, I still think of the Big ten? I 499 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: mean literally it three years ago. I finally automatically was 500 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: thinking like Maryland, Penn State, Nebraska, right, and then boom 501 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 1: you throw those and I'm like, wait, wait a minute, now, 502 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: I also saw yesterday. Did you see this? The I 503 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: heard this now now I might have been maybe I 504 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: slept this, Maybe I like dreamt this. Did I hear that? 505 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: North Carolina now is apparently still holding onto an offer 506 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: from the SEC. 507 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 2: You did not dream that? 508 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: That is correct, But the problem is you have that 509 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 1: bylaw letter with the you know, the charter letter membership 510 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: for the ACC that is apparently the most binding thing 511 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: ever in North Carolina. I think Clemson is very interesting 512 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: to see what happens with that, because if Clemson and 513 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 1: North Carolina both leave the ACC, and Clemson has flirted 514 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: with that as well, if they both leave the ACC, 515 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: then you know, then you're in real trouble. 516 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 2: I feel like that's more of like a win. 517 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: Not if I would I would agree with that. Although 518 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: that I'm telling you that that contract or that deed 519 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: that was signed or that they're a part of is 520 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: seemingly pretty ironclad. So you know, that's that's a tough one. 521 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: I mean, California and isn't SMU in the ACC now, 522 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean, what are we doing here? And then I 523 00:27:56,080 --> 00:28:00,199 Speaker 1: always feel bad for Oregon State because Oregon State in 524 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: Washington State, which are two decent athletic programs, were completely 525 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 1: left out on the cold. They were completely asleep at 526 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: the wheel. And now Oregon State's like trying to, you know, 527 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: pump up season tickets, like come see our rivalry with 528 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: San Jose State. 529 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 2: What, okay, sure, come watch us play Washington State four times? 530 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: That's right, yeah, exactly. But I'm curious what we should 531 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 1: predict it now if I ask, if I ask Dave Revson, 532 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: who is going to be who has the best potential 533 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: to be this year's Indiana out of the Big ten? 534 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: And by that I mean a team that is not 535 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: forecasted to be at the top of the conference, that 536 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: could come kind of out of nowhere and based on 537 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: their schedule and other such breaks fall the way of 538 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: things really going well. For like Washington's expected to be 539 00:28:52,680 --> 00:29:00,239 Speaker 1: pretty good. Who's he gonna say, I'll predict. I got 540 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: a prediction too, Okay, who is your prediction? Ucla? Okay, 541 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: that's good. 542 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 2: They got Niko Ayamaya Lava. 543 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: No, you're right, and that's another one. Eddie that but UCLA. 544 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: Doesn't it feel like UCLA? I'm USI supposed to be good, right, 545 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: But that's a good pick. I'll say that he's going 546 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: to say Minnesota. But we'll find out when he joins 547 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 1: us from the Big Ten Network and he does it next. 548 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: It is upon us college football in terms of in 549 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: particular teams getting underway with It's crazy to think, you know, 550 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:37,239 Speaker 1: kids back at school before August and now obviously the 551 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: Colt in training camp. Day off today for the Colts. 552 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: By the way, Joela ericson at about twenty but joining 553 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: us now on the program. He is, of course with 554 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: the Big Ten Network to preview the conference. Our friend 555 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: Dave Rebsen joins us. Dave, how are you? 556 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 5: I couldn't be fine? Or Jake. 557 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 6: We embarked tomorrow on our preseason camp tour line to Lincoln, Nebraska. 558 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 6: We'll see the hot Ters on Friday and then we're 559 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 6: off and running. It's pretty amazing to think it's upon us. 560 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 6: It's always an exciting time. 561 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: It is and then but you know before you know it, 562 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,239 Speaker 1: And this is what is fun, Dave. I love like 563 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: those those early fall Saturday night under the lights games 564 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: where it's just starting to get crisp in the air 565 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: and you see these big matchups right separation Saturday and 566 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: et cetera. So let's start with this. Eddie and I 567 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: were just talking about it. We each predicted who you 568 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: may say for your answer, Okay, this year's And I 569 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: know that you haven't gone to camp and seen a 570 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: lot of these teams yet, so I understand that. But 571 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: when you look at scheduling and other such things, the 572 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: team that could be this year's Indiana, and by that 573 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: I mean I don't mean one that is starting out 574 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: ranked in the top twenty five per se, but one 575 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: that just you kind of have your eye on it 576 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: and you're curious to get to their camp because you 577 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: think things may come together for this team, despite people 578 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: not necessarily talking about them at this point. Who jumps 579 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: out at you as the potential of that squad? 580 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 6: Well, I mean people are talking about Illinois, so maybe 581 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 6: that's not a fair one. 582 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 5: I feel like they won. 583 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 6: Ten games a year ago, and you know, maybe they 584 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 6: can be a team that makes the playoffs this year, 585 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 6: but it feels like the way that you set that up, 586 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 6: Illinois maybe isn't an acceptable response. So I guess if 587 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 6: not them, I might say Minnesota. 588 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 5: I'm a little concerned about that. 589 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: That was my prediction, Dave. I predicted you were going 590 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: to go with Minnesota. I love it. And we did 591 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: not discuss this ahead of time. 592 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 5: By the way, Okay, all right, well no we did not. 593 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 6: That makes me feel good because you know, kay, and 594 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 6: it means it must be bordering on the truth. 595 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. 596 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 6: I just I'm concerned about quarterback. I mean, I've just 597 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 6: never seen Drake Lindsay play other than him practice last year. 598 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 6: And he's a big kid with a nice arm, but 599 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 6: I mean he's not a five star recruit. It's not 600 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 6: Bryce Underwood coming in. But other than that, I just 601 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 6: feel like they've got a lot of really good answers. 602 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 6: They'll be really good on defense. They were elite on 603 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 6: defense last year. They did lose their DC. 604 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 5: Corey Heatherman. 605 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 6: He went to Miami, but I know Danny Collins has 606 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 6: been with PJ. Fleck for a long time to need DC, 607 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 6: And I was talking to PJ and Las Vegas, and 608 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 6: he's really excited about him and doesn't think they'll miss 609 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 6: a beat there. I think their offensive line will be good. 610 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 6: It really struggled last year, but I think they upgraded 611 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 6: some in the portal. They have a really good running back. 612 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 6: I just think there are a lot of pieces in. 613 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 5: Place for them. I wouldn't predict they're going to make 614 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 5: the playoff, Like I don't think they're going to have 615 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 5: the year that Indiana had. 616 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 3: A year ago. 617 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 5: But if we're talking about a team that people. 618 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 6: Aren't talking about, and again I think that excludes Illinois. 619 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 6: I think to a certain extent that excludes to Iowa. 620 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,239 Speaker 5: I mean I would say Iowa is a team that 621 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 5: they could rise up. 622 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 6: But again, I feel like they may show up in 623 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 6: some preseason top twenty fives. You know, I'm not sure 624 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 6: I'm buying Nebraska. 625 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 5: I'd go Minnesota. 626 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: Man, it's such a loaded league, Dave, You know what 627 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: I mean. When you look at it, you just you 628 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: can make a case really for about everybody, and then 629 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: you know, obviously excluding Purdue. And we'll get to that 630 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: in a second. But I want to focus on Kurt Signette. 631 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: Dave Revson Big ten Network is our guest. A year ago, 632 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: Kurt Signetti was was making waves with you know, we've 633 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: talked about it obviously, the uber confidence, the famous quotes, 634 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: the preseason stuff, and he backed it up. And I 635 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: found it interesting that when he came out and was 636 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: talking about scheduling as you know, as if you were 637 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: an SEC school and you know, the breaking the contract 638 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: with Virginia Dave. From an Indiana standpoint, it seemed as 639 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: though Kurt Signetti all of a sudden has elevated himself 640 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: into a coach that the rest of the Big Ten 641 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: kind of backed up now what he was saying, and 642 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: that he was like this spokesperson for other coaches who 643 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: then came out and said, yeah, he's right, and we 644 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: agree with that. That's the Indiana perspective. Is that an 645 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: accurate assessment or is he still seen by other coaches 646 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: as this bravada that is kind of eyebrow raising. 647 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 6: I can't speak to how other coaches see him. I mean, 648 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 6: I just don't know. I haven't asked them how they 649 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 6: view him. 650 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 5: I look what, I'd rather see Indiana play Virginia than 651 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 5: some of these games that they're scheduling. 652 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 6: I would, But I also think that in life, you 653 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,919 Speaker 6: do what you're incentivized to do, and I just don't 654 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 6: think there's incentive to play these top level non conference games. 655 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 6: And again, I think this is why the Big Ten 656 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 6: is advocating for four guaranteed spots in the playoff for 657 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 6: them and for. 658 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 5: The SEC, because they've been the best leagues. 659 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 6: I mean, I think if you go through here in 660 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 6: recent years, the most elite teams, it's those two leagues. 661 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 6: But also from the Big Ten's point of view, you know, 662 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,919 Speaker 6: they look at versus the SEC, and SEC is only 663 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 6: playing eight conference games and no one penalizes them for that. 664 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 6: The Big Ten when you play nine, and again, the 665 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 6: math is you're. 666 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 5: Guaranteed that half your league's going to lose one more game. 667 00:34:58,719 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 5: And so if we're. 668 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 6: Leaving all us in the hands of the committee and 669 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 6: they're looking at one loss record above and beyond everything, 670 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 6: I understand kind of the notion of well, we're not 671 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 6: going to schedule the potential for another loss. We already 672 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 6: are playing one more conference game than our top rival 673 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 6: league is. So you know what the coaches think of it, 674 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 6: I don't know, but I understand where where Big Ten 675 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 6: teams are coming from. 676 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 5: Its terms of scheduling. 677 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 6: I mean again, I just think like until the committee 678 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 6: shows us that they're going to go deep and you 679 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 6: know they're going to pick up whatever it is, a 680 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 6: three loss team over a one loss team, or or 681 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 6: a three loss team over two loss team, or whatever 682 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 6: it is, they just haven't really done that. And so 683 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 6: I think, like your goal is just to minimize your 684 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 6: number of losses, and part of the way to do 685 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 6: that is to schedule is easy and non conference late 686 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 6: as you can. 687 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting for Indiana and Kurt Signetti's offense now, Dave, 688 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 1: it's hard to say this because they got such good 689 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: play last year at the quarterback position. So I mean, 690 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: it is no slight, but they might have even upgraded. 691 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: I'm a mate. You know, Mendoza coming from California has 692 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: not only experience, but I think there seemingly is a 693 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: lot of intrigue about him being a literally a top 694 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 1: level first round level pick at that position. Your intrigue 695 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: level about Mendoza and just about Indiana offensively this year 696 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 1: trying to maintain what they were able to do a 697 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: year ago. 698 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 6: It's really high, Jake, And I'll tell you I think 699 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 6: I maybe even I can't recall whether we talk about this. 700 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 5: So, like Curtis Rourke had a terrible. 701 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 6: Day when we were practice last year, and that's why 702 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 6: we always kind of say, hey, we're parachuting. 703 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 5: In it's one day. 704 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 6: You don't know whether it's representative. 705 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 5: And everyone there was telling us, now. 706 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 6: He has had a great camp, and we think he's 707 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 6: going to be really good. I mean, Tavin Jackson had 708 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 6: a way better day than Curtis Rourke and everyone kept 709 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 6: telling us this was his worst day by far. 710 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 5: He's going to be really good. So, I mean, I'm 711 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 5: excited to see Fernando Mendoza. 712 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 6: But again, I didn't come out camp last year thinking like, 713 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 6: oh my goodness, Curtis Rourke, they've really got this thing 714 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 6: figured out. But looking at tape for Nanda Mendoza, I 715 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 6: certainly understand why people are excited about him. I mean, 716 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 6: he certainly has the size and the physical tools. In 717 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 6: all of that, you know, the offensive line's got to 718 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 6: be better for him and Indiana than it was at CAL. 719 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 6: I mean, that was really the challenge for him, and 720 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 6: I think part of the reason that he was kind 721 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 6: of middle of the pack in the acc and passing efficiency. 722 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 6: But it's easy to look at the tape and the 723 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 6: highlights of him from call and to see why people 724 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 6: are excited. But I would just say, I mean, what 725 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 6: Curtis Rourke did last year was pretty amazing, and to 726 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 6: do it with an injury, as we later learned it was, 727 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 6: it was a remarkable year. And so yeah, I don't 728 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 6: want to slight that at all. 729 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 5: I mean, is it an upgrade. 730 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 6: It'd be hard to be much better than Curtis Rourke 731 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 6: was last year. But if they're just the same at quarterback, 732 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 6: if they're just as good, that would be a really 733 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 6: enviable spot because they were one of the elite quarterback 734 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 6: teams in the country a year ago. 735 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: By the way, Dave, do you really actually parachute in? 736 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: Is that a tandem jump or are you a solo guy? 737 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 5: Yeah? 738 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 6: Donardo likes to parachute in. He wants to get up 739 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 6: into a plane. 740 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,879 Speaker 5: Is this big thing? I mean? And I just kind 741 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 5: of through the years and been like, all right, we'll 742 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 5: parachute in. 743 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, we're usually you know, we try to land at midfield. 744 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 5: We've had the Blue Angels a couple of times. I mean, 745 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 5: it's it's a pretty big production. 746 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 2: And that takes some practice. Too, which is impressive, right, 747 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 2: it does. 748 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 5: But again, I mean that's what the off seasons for 749 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 5: Jake like. We're not just sitting around resting on our laurels. 750 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:44,959 Speaker 5: We're trying to figure out how we can get better. 751 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 6: And part of that is you make sure you hit 752 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 6: the fifty every time and. 753 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: At Paris Island for the entire offseason, getting getting things 754 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 1: right exactly. Hey, David, your thoughts on you know, obviously 755 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: it Purdue. This is a complete rebuild and I'm fascinated 756 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,840 Speaker 1: by Barry Odom in terms of I think if you 757 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: really do look and I mean, you know, how much 758 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 1: do we really follow UNLV football? Right, But if you 759 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 1: look at his team there and you go back and 760 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: look at it, I think, you know, a disciplined style 761 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,280 Speaker 1: of football, kind of an older school style of football. 762 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: I think he can bring that to Purdue and operate that. 763 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 1: But can that win in the Big Ten? And how 764 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 1: long does it take to turn that around? If you will? 765 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: What do you anticipate, if anything, this year from Purdue 766 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:35,880 Speaker 1: in this rebuild. 767 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 6: I haven't the faintest idea. I mean, I really we 768 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 6: just have to see. 769 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,240 Speaker 5: Them in camp. I mean, again, you're talking about. 770 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 6: A team that essentially has like one player that anyone 771 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:48,240 Speaker 6: knows anything about. 772 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: Probably he doesn't have the faintest idea, right, I mean, 773 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: they've got to be nat. 774 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 5: I can't imagine that he does. Again, I think it 775 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 5: would be unfair to say, you know, can you do it? 776 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 5: Kurt Signetti did? 777 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,280 Speaker 6: I just but in this day and age, you don't 778 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 6: have to rebuild over four or five years. You can 779 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 6: be competitive right away because he utilized the portal. And 780 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,280 Speaker 6: again he's got a handful of guys coming from UNLV. 781 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 6: It's nothing like the JMU contingent that came last year 782 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 6: with Signetti. But again, I really, I mean, I have 783 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 6: no field at all. I would agree with you. I 784 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 6: think he did a really nice job at UNLV. You know, 785 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 6: my old colleague Kenny Mayne, of course, was a backup 786 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 6: quarterback at UNLV soul. He would always regale me. 787 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 5: With tales of UNLV football. 788 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 6: But the truth of the matter is it's not much 789 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 6: of a tradition. And you know the fact that he won. 790 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 6: They won twenty games in two years. I think he 791 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 6: was responsible for nineteen of them because he left before 792 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 6: the bowl game last year, but they had won you know, 793 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 6: I think like five years the year or five games 794 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 6: the year before he got there. So he did a 795 00:40:56,239 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 6: really good job. You know, he wasn't great at Missouri. Again, 796 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 6: I just reserve judgment. I want to see. I thought 797 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 6: he was impressive in Las Vegas. He's a pretty even 798 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 6: keeled guy, or at least came across that way. He's 799 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 6: different from Signetti. 800 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 5: I mean, there's a whole lot of bravado there. 801 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 6: There are lots of different ways to get this done, 802 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 6: and I just anxiously go to camp and see what 803 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 6: it looks like. 804 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: So take me through Dave repsent, our guest Big ten Network.

We're in Indiana on August 824 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 6: the eighth, and we're at Purdue on August the ninth, 825 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 6: so that's kind of the back end. We go east 826 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 6: to Maryland and then swing back through the state of 827 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 6: Indiana and then go back out to Iowa, Wisconsin, Northwestern 828 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 6: and then the West Coast schools, which Ashley is. 829 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 5: Going to be doing.

It's 832 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 1: parachuting from the top of a bus. Very dangerous, right yeah, I. 833 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 2: Mean yeah, you got yeah, may not open quickly, you 834 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:54,439 Speaker 2: may not. 835 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 1: Open yeah, I mean that's an ankle issue at that point, right, 836 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,280 Speaker 1: So it's probably better than on the plane, right. 837 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think, Well, you know, we do. It's a mixture. 838 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 5: We've got We've got this company. 839 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:12,760 Speaker 6: Called land Jet, which has these tricked out sprinter vans, 840 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 6: and so we use land Jet quite a bit like 841 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 6: kind of in these shorter haul trips, but we don't 842 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,839 Speaker 6: have the full like concert tour bus that we used 843 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 6: to have, So it's a little bit of flying, a 844 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 6: little bit of driving, and a lot of parachhite. 845 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: By the way, before we let you go, Dave, two 846 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: things in terms of you mentioned concert now.

I mean, I'm not 871 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 6: a huge Oasis fan, but but I mean, first of 872 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 6: I'll just go to Manchester for a concert to see 873 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 6: a group in its hometown. I think that's I think 874 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 6: that's awesome. 875 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 5: Was it fun? 876 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 2: It was amazing. 877 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 1: It was They have a park that is as a 878 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 1: matter of fact, it's basically the size of Central Park 879 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: and they had they listed it at eighty thousand. I 880 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:04,879 Speaker 1: think it's closer to one hundred thousand. Here's the one 881 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:06,840 Speaker 1: thing I learned Dave that I shared with our listeners. 882 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: But you and I are friends, so I'm going to 883 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: share this with you. In the event that you go 884 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: to a concert in the UK, you start seeing cups 885 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 1: flying through the air, a lot of moisture through the air, 886 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 1: cups celebrating like with big songs, and I learned, thankfully, 887 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 1: I was tipped to this in advance when you get 888 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: into these big crowds like that for outdoor, this is 889 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,720 Speaker 1: a soccer thing, is where it started. You double fisted 890 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 1: your beers, but then it's too hard to get to 891 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: the portalettes, so then the empty cups are used for 892 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: that purpose until your favorite song comes on, in which 893 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: you hoist them in the air. So if you're going 894 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: to go to a show there, you want to be 895 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 1: in the back like forty percent. 896 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 5: Oh my goodness, yeah. 897 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. It was. It was a little eye opening, 898 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: to say the least. And then like you talk to 899 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 1: people afterwards and like, yeah, I got kind of wet. 900 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 1: I just went back and took a shower. I'm not sure, 901 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: and I'm like, okay, oh, as a germaphoe, you have 902 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,360 Speaker 1: just described it literally my worst nightmare. Yeah, I mean listen. 903 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: But other than that, and that's you know, that's like 904 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 1: the twenty five and undercrowd that's in the front. You know, 905 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 1: David was amazing. I mean they are. It was electric 906 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: just to see. That's the thing about music when you 907 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,319 Speaker 1: can look around at people that grew up on the 908 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 1: other side of the planet and realize that you have 909 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 1: the common thread of the same soundtrack. That means a 910 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: lot to you. That is a special thing. So it 911 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 1: was very, very cool, and I'll enjoy that exact same 912 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 1: fraternal feeling with the other two hundred and forty six 913 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: people that will be at the White Sox game with 914 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:41,840 Speaker 1: me on the thirteenth. So if you're not at a camp, 915 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: swing by and say Hi. 916 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm sad that I'll be out of town on 917 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 6: that day because I mean, I would like to see you, 918 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 6: but I probably have my soul the Socks.

We'll do it next. Joela Ericson would be 938 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: happy to know than just we are like, I think 939 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: two weeks three weeks away from IndyCar and Milwaukee. And 940 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:49,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if you know this, but when whenever 941 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 1: IndyCar goes to Milwaukee, and I bought tickets last night, 942 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: by the way, for the Brewers. The Brewers are playing 943 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,920 Speaker 1: the Giants. And let me tell you something. The Brewers tickets. 944 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 1: You know, I always buy like the top literally the 945 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 1: top row of like right field. No joke on the 946 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: Brewers tickets this year. I mean there it was. 947 00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 2: Are the best team in baseball? Un I listen, I 948 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 2: mean it was, And I mean I have no idea how. 949 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 1: Top dollar I paid more for the Brewers Giants game 950 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:24,360 Speaker 1: than I did for the Oasis concert. I'm being extremely sarcastic, 951 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 1: but whenever the Brewers are playing and I'm up there 952 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 1: for a game or for IndyCar. Then the beer Fairy 953 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,720 Speaker 1: shows up at Joel Erickson's house, which is always exciting. 954 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: He joins us now, and I'm sure thrilled to be 955 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 1: doing so on the guest line on an off day 956 00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: for the Colts. So exactly what most beat writers want 957 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: to do is join this program. Joel. Let's begin with 958 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:48,400 Speaker 1: this from an injury standpoint. We discussed it yesterday, but 959 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 1: for those that were not here yesterday, there were a 960 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: couple of tweaks. Does anything can you recap for us 961 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,319 Speaker 1: a couple of the injuries that we saw yesterday and 962 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: if there's any information at all to update, Yeah. 963 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 7: I'm I'm mostly focused on the cornerbacks. Juju Brents after 964 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,879 Speaker 7: we talked to him. Sometime between us talking to him 965 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 7: and the next day was out with the hamstring, and 966 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,840 Speaker 7: then we saw Jalen Jones deal with a hamstring injury. 967 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 7: We saw him pull up that one. As hamstrings go, 968 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 7: it looked it looked pretty bad to start, and I 969 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 7: think that that that that's the one I'm focused on 970 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,879 Speaker 7: because they're they're competition with Justin Wally, and Wally has 971 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 7: been ahead of them, so far for that cornerback job. 972 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:33,799 Speaker 7: I think that's the biggest one. Michael Pittman kind of 973 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 7: finished practice. I wonder if his growing is maybe more 974 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 7: just maintenance. But yeah, I think the corners are the one. 975 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:41,959 Speaker 7: I'm most interested in. 976 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 1: The the injury that you talked about with Jalen Jones, 977 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: because you are right, I mean that that seems to 978 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: be boy. I mean, and now, and let me ask 979 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 1: you this, my apologies. Is it Whaley or Wally because 980 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 1: I hear both. 981 00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 7: I've been saying Wally, and now I'm concerned that I 982 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 7: that wrong. 983 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:03,759 Speaker 1: I've been saying Whaley, and then I went to Wally, 984 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 1: and then I went, I've kind of how about this 985 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 1: justin w How's that? 986 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:10,320 Speaker 3: The person to ask is Matt Taylor. 987 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,600 Speaker 7: Tomorrow, I'm going to just pull Matt Taylor aside and say, hey, 988 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 7: am I saying? 989 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,919 Speaker 1: Well, listen, Joel, this is not unprecedented because we've had 990 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 1: like Antoine Bethay was Antoine Bethay, that he was Antoine 991 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:23,839 Speaker 1: Betheya than back, you know what I mean. We've had 992 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,319 Speaker 1: players and in racing I can tell you. I mean 993 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 1: Tony Kanan was Tony Kanaan when he first came to 994 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 1: the United States, and then everybody said Canaan and it 995 00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:32,880 Speaker 1: was like, okay, we'll just go with that, you know 996 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,160 Speaker 1: what I mean. So so we're all off the hook here. 997 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: But having said that, he has been really and you 998 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong, he's been kind of the 999 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:42,919 Speaker 1: buzz of this camp so far. 1000 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1001 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 7: I think early on it was mostly because he was 1002 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,360 Speaker 7: ahead of those guys. The last two days, though, we 1003 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 7: started to see him make more plays on the ball. 1004 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 7: Some of the stuff we heard them talk about in 1005 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,760 Speaker 7: the off season, we didn't really see that last week. 1006 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 7: We started to see it this week. I think the 1007 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,759 Speaker 7: thing that I keep thinking about him is when I 1008 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 7: talked to him in June, after they've been praising him 1009 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 7: and saying he was breaking up all these passes and 1010 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 7: making all these interceptions, I said, is this easier than 1011 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 7: you thought it would be? Or are you more comfortable 1012 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,400 Speaker 7: than you thought it would be? And he said, no, 1013 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 7: this is the hardest thing I've ever done on a 1014 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 7: football field. And I think when your head is swimming 1015 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 7: and you're still impressing the coaching staff and making plays, 1016 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 7: to me, that's an indicator of something something to be 1017 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 7: excited about. 1018 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 1: The quarterback competition is the one, Joel, that is always 1019 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: going to be the storyline of this camp. It was 1020 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:40,799 Speaker 1: going into it, it is now. But before we go there, 1021 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to ask you what I've asked a couple 1022 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: of others, and that is you mentioned corner. Is there 1023 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: another area that you look towards where maybe there is 1024 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: a potential unseat of the incumbent or a battle taking 1025 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: place that you did not anticipate three weeks ago was 1026 00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 1: going to be a story. 1027 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 7: I think maybe not talking about center enough. You know, 1028 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 7: Magnzoalvez at right guard has basically just been the right 1029 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 7: guard with the first team at center, Tanner Bordolini and 1030 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 7: Danny Pinter are are they are trading off days? 1031 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:16,959 Speaker 1: Really I thought I thought, I mean, guilty is charged 1032 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 1: here because I thought that that was a done one 1033 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: and that Bartolini was going to be the guy. 1034 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 7: That's that's kind of I think what most of us 1035 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 7: thought going in. But but so far it has been 1036 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 7: sixty there one day and then sixty three there the 1037 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,239 Speaker 7: next day, and they have continued on that. I think 1038 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 7: that is a real competition at the center position that 1039 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,920 Speaker 7: maybe maybe we need to pay a little more attention 1040 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:37,920 Speaker 7: to as we go forward. 1041 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: Is that because of the fact that that Bartolini has 1042 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 1: played poorly or because Pinter has exceeded expectation. 1043 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 7: I I think it goes back to last year. Because 1044 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 7: they've really only been in full pads for two days. 1045 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,479 Speaker 7: They don't really have a ton of data on. 1046 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 3: The offensive lineman. 1047 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 7: Yet I think it goes back to last year BORDERLINI 1048 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 7: came back from any injury, Pinter had started a game, 1049 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 7: and instead of just giving ford a Leini back the 1050 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:06,440 Speaker 7: position he had earlier in the year, they went with 1051 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,439 Speaker 7: Pinter to start another game before Ryan Kelly came back. 1052 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 7: Something something in the evaluation for Tony Sparan or that's 1053 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 7: the offensive line coach and the rest of the coaching 1054 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 7: staff tells them that that should be more of a competition. 1055 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 3: And I have made a note. 1056 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,520 Speaker 7: I made a note to myself yesterday I need to 1057 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,719 Speaker 7: watch the centers a little more closely than I have. 1058 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,919 Speaker 1: Been interesting because you know the but I will give 1059 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 1: and you tell me Joel if you agree with this. 1060 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: I said it yesterday. Bernard Ryman. Do you remember when 1061 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 1: Bernard Ryman came in he had short arms? You remember that, 1062 00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 1: like everybody was they and actually they they initially when 1063 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 1: they drafted him, they only had a photo of a 1064 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: t Rex. They didn't actually have a photo of him, 1065 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:52,360 Speaker 1: and that was the big knock on him, right and 1066 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: and Chris Ballard basically said, look, we think this guy 1067 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,359 Speaker 1: can grow into it. And he did. And I will 1068 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: give Ballard credit there. And in a time when we 1069 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: have been very critical of Chris Ballard over the last 1070 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,239 Speaker 1: couple of years, the one area well where I give 1071 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 1: him credit is I do think that they have built 1072 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 1: an offensive line here that does have some depth and 1073 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 1: some guys that can Swiss Army a little bit. And 1074 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: he gets credit there because not all of them were 1075 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,320 Speaker 1: can't miss products. Am I giving him too much credit? 1076 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 7: No? No, I think you're right. I think Ryman in 1077 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:31,439 Speaker 7: particular should be looked at, regardless of whatever happens, as 1078 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 7: one of the best draft picks of his tenure. You 1079 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,799 Speaker 7: don't get left tackles outside of the first round. You 1080 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 7: just don't. I mean there's a couple. David Bachiari's a 1081 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,839 Speaker 7: forced drawn Armstead was a third, but like it's very 1082 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 7: few and far between for like left tackle names that 1083 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 7: people might know that came outside of the first round. 1084 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 7: Ballard took one in the third saw something with him 1085 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 7: and he has developed into that that is much harder, 1086 00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 7: I think than we necessarily give it credit for. 1087 00:54:59,640 --> 00:54:59,920 Speaker 3: Based. 1088 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:02,839 Speaker 7: You know, if you just go back and look at 1089 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:04,919 Speaker 7: the history of left tackles, and I know someone's gonna 1090 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 7: go out there and go, I found this guy and 1091 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 7: this guy or whatever. But my editor Nat newle Is 1092 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,400 Speaker 7: is big in the numbers and has done this plenty 1093 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 7: of times. It is very hard to find a left tackle. 1094 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 7: Outside of the first round. 1095 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 1: The Colts were able to do it the quarterback position. 1096 00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:24,480 Speaker 1: Let's get to it. Leader right now is who Anthony Richardson. 1097 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 3: I think is. 1098 00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:29,760 Speaker 1: That because Anthony Richardson has taken a step or because 1099 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is not. 1100 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,320 Speaker 7: I think for me it's because I thought for Daniel 1101 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,319 Speaker 7: Jones to win this job coming in that he had 1102 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 7: to be leaps and bounds more efficient as a pastor 1103 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 7: and accurate as a pastor, and I haven't necessarily seen that. 1104 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:45,239 Speaker 3: So far. 1105 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 7: Richardson has had periods and stretches of practice where he's 1106 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 7: been much more accurate than we've seen in the past. 1107 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 7: I still have like yesterday's practice is a good example. 1108 00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,359 Speaker 7: He was nine to eleven at one point with one 1109 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,160 Speaker 7: of the incomplete is coming on a shovel, and you 1110 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,240 Speaker 7: feel really good about that. And then the last period 1111 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 7: comes out and he goes oh for three with some 1112 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:08,479 Speaker 7: with some misses in there. And so there's a piece 1113 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 7: of me that wonders, you know, which one to hang 1114 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 7: my hat on or. 1115 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 3: Pay attention to. 1116 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 7: But Jones, I thought, you know, his advantage was, you know, 1117 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:22,919 Speaker 7: he's a he's got a veteran with reputation for knowing 1118 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,040 Speaker 7: the offense and working really hard and doing all that stuff. 1119 00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 7: And those guys, I think you have to complete a 1120 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 7: ton of passes and I just don't know that we've 1121 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 7: seen that. I think the thing that I've noticed most 1122 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 7: with him is he has a tendency to either throw 1123 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 7: a little bit late or lock on a receiver or 1124 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 7: whatever it is. It's hard to tell, but there there 1125 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 7: are a lot of sort of routes where a receiver 1126 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,319 Speaker 7: has settled down and he throws and it gets broken up. 1127 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 7: There was one practice where every incompletion he had was 1128 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 7: like that, and to me that that was the kind 1129 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 7: of throw that he has to be making over and 1130 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 7: over and over again to take. 1131 00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 3: The job away from Richardson. 1132 00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 7: Because Richardson, I think we haven't necessarily seen it in 1133 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:05,360 Speaker 7: camp so far, but he gives you he's more dynamic 1134 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,319 Speaker 7: as a runner, and he's definitely more dynamic as a 1135 00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 7: thrower down the field. 1136 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: So and Richardson has am I correct in saying Joel 1137 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 1: shown a little bit more consistency in the layup game 1138 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 1: right like the over the middle. The timing has been 1139 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 1: better right in terms and to the point where there 1140 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 1: were people that were wondering who he worked with in 1141 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: the offseason. But before I get to my other question, 1142 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 1: am I correct in saying that he has been more 1143 00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:32,360 Speaker 1: precise in the rhythm passing. Talking about Anthony Richardson, So. 1144 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 3: I looked up last year. I looked at what I 1145 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:35,560 Speaker 3: had last year for. 1146 00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 7: Training camp, and by the end of training camp, I 1147 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 7: had him at sixty one percent completion. That's my unofficial count. 1148 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 7: I'm sure the Colts have a different official count. It's 1149 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 7: the same right now. I have him at fifty four 1150 00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 7: to fifty five. So I do think there has been 1151 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 7: an uptick in in him getting the ball out of 1152 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 7: the pocket on time, all that type of thing. I 1153 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 7: would like to see a little more before I'm ready 1154 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 7: to say that it's definitely different than it was last year. 1155 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 1: Okay, so this is my follow up to that, and 1156 00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 1: it involves spoiler alert here. I'm about to reveal a 1157 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 1: deep secret from a movie and ruin the movie if 1158 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,360 Speaker 1: you've not seen it. But the movie's thirty years old, 1159 00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 1: so I feel safe that it's not really a spoiler alert. Joel, 1160 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 1: have you seen the movie? I've referenced it before on 1161 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 1: this show maybe with you. Have you ever seen the 1162 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 1: movie Primal Fear with Ed Norton and Richard Gear. Yes, 1163 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 1: it's a fabulous movie. In the movie, Ed Norton plays 1164 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: a defendant who is a very likable, innocent young guy 1165 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 1: with this like sinister streak, and at the end of 1166 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:45,760 Speaker 1: the movie you find out that, in fact, he is 1167 00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 1: a sinister guy with a fake persona of an innocent 1168 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 1: kid that he can do in a streak. Is there 1169 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:56,919 Speaker 1: any chance that Anthony Richardson, when we see these things 1170 00:58:56,960 --> 00:59:00,520 Speaker 1: about him as a consistent quarterback, is actually ed and 1171 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 1: when the regular season rolls around, we're going to find 1172 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: out that he is not a guy now that is 1173 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:08,680 Speaker 1: an accurate quarterback where that has come together, that has mobility, 1174 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 1: but rather he's a mobile guide that still does not 1175 00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 1: have accuracy. 1176 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:16,400 Speaker 7: I I think that it's definitely possible, and I think 1177 00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 7: I think part of it is maybe a lesson for 1178 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 7: me and the time I've covered this team is I 1179 00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 7: don't want to overvalue what we're seeing on the training 1180 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 7: camp field. And I know, as somebody who's who's writing 1181 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:32,440 Speaker 7: an observations piece every day where I'm detailing every throw 1182 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 7: that that may sound a little bit, you know, hypocritical, 1183 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 7: But the thing is, like, you know, we're we're what 1184 00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,440 Speaker 7: were we thinking coming out of camp with Matt Ryan, 1185 00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 7: you know, and some of these other guys, some of 1186 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 7: these other camps over the time. I think I think 1187 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 7: there's a there's a piece of me that's become a 1188 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 7: little bit skeptical on stuff. Like I said, I had 1189 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:53,000 Speaker 7: him at I had him at sixty one percent at 1190 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 7: the end of camp last year. I think it's it's 1191 00:59:54,960 --> 01:00:00,440 Speaker 7: definitely possible that, you know, some of the some of 1192 01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:02,840 Speaker 7: the periods we've seen where he hasn't been as accurate 1193 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:05,560 Speaker 7: so far, end up being more of the norm once 1194 01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 7: you're in a less controlled setting, for the colt's sake, 1195 01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 7: you don't want that, but I think it's definitely possible. 1196 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: Joel A. Erickson is our guest Indianapolis Star is where 1197 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,440 Speaker 1: you can read his work. We're talking about the Colts 1198 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:23,560 Speaker 1: who have the off day today again. Jalen Jones yesterday 1199 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. Juju Brents it was not visible, but apparently 1200 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:31,560 Speaker 1: is dealing with a hamstring injury. Michael Pittman Junior had 1201 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 1: a groin injury late in practice. Am I correcting that? 1202 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:35,240 Speaker 3: Yes? 1203 01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 7: And it was very late because he had something like 1204 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,320 Speaker 7: five catches in teamwork before that. 1205 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 1: Okay, so did it And that was not something that 1206 01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 1: you saw, right. We just were told about it later. 1207 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 3: I didn't see it. 1208 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 7: I know Nay Atkins, who covers the Cults with me 1209 01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:57,000 Speaker 7: at Adnee Starr, said that he was kind of it 1210 01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:58,680 Speaker 7: looked like one of those things that maybe you kind 1211 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:00,720 Speaker 7: of go over to the trainer and say, hey, this 1212 01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 7: is bothering me, and then they kind of just make 1213 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 7: a decision on it. So it wasn't like the Jalen 1214 01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 7: Jones thing where you saw it happen very obviously in 1215 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 7: front of you. 1216 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:12,880 Speaker 1: You know one guy that I have heard. You know, 1217 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:16,919 Speaker 1: there seems to be some optimism about and I get 1218 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: the fact that it's hard to get excited about anybody 1219 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 1: that is going to be spelling Jonathan Taylor, because Jonathan 1220 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:26,200 Speaker 1: Taylor is obviously, you know, an elite player in one 1221 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: that you anticipate being on the field as much as possible. 1222 01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 1: But I've heard good things about DJ Giddens, and it 1223 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,360 Speaker 1: seems like he has been impressive. They're rookie running back 1224 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: out of Kansas State. Fact or fiction on the fact 1225 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: that he has jumped out a little bit. 1226 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:43,240 Speaker 3: Fact definite fact. 1227 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:47,840 Speaker 7: I think Gidden's he's an interesting runner because you know, 1228 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:51,760 Speaker 7: you don't have sort of the jarring jump cut that 1229 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:57,760 Speaker 7: you get with Taylor's, the kind of sudden and hard 1230 01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:00,280 Speaker 7: change of movement. He's more of a glider. I think 1231 01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 7: the word is the word Shane Steiken used. It's subtle. 1232 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 7: The way he makes cuts is subtle. It's a little 1233 01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 7: thing here or there. But he's really good at navigating traffic. 1234 01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 7: And then the other thing I think that that helps 1235 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 7: him get on the field is he looks really natural 1236 01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,440 Speaker 7: catching the football, which you know is a weakness of 1237 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:19,440 Speaker 7: Johnson Taylor's. I don't think anyone would ever say that 1238 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 7: Johnathan Taylor looks natural catching the football. Every time they've 1239 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:27,400 Speaker 7: thrown it past the Giddons, it's looked very smooth, very consistent, 1240 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 7: and so I think that probably helps him get on 1241 01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:32,800 Speaker 7: the field and gets him in some situations if he 1242 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,439 Speaker 7: can do that receiving work out of the backfield, They've 1243 01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 7: they've wanted to have somebody that can rely on to 1244 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 7: do that and spell Taylor a little bit. 1245 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 1: For a while. Joel, how do you think Shane Steichen's 1246 01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:50,120 Speaker 1: different than last year? If in any way, shape or form. 1247 01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:52,640 Speaker 7: I would say he's. It feels to me like he's 1248 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 7: every year he's been here, he's gotten more comfortable in 1249 01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:00,680 Speaker 7: just the atmosphere of being on the team. I don't 1250 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 7: want to say just because I mean, honestly, who cares 1251 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:05,640 Speaker 7: how he is with the reporters and stuff like that. 1252 01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 7: That's such a small part of his job. But I 1253 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:11,160 Speaker 7: feel like the comfort level he has is is probably 1254 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,800 Speaker 7: gone up every year. I think the other thing with 1255 01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:19,560 Speaker 7: him that I've noticed is he's he's he's really into 1256 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 7: this year in practice trying to throw some unexpected at 1257 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,960 Speaker 7: the players. There've been a couple times in practice where 1258 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 7: you know, Matt Taylor is announcing to everybody this is 1259 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 7: what's going to happen, and Shane's out there like, no, 1260 01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:35,840 Speaker 7: it's not I'm going to do a sudden change thing 1261 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,600 Speaker 7: and deviate from the part. I don't know if I 1262 01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,320 Speaker 7: think deviate from the practice plan he talked about. He 1263 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:43,000 Speaker 7: didn't feel like they did a good job with that 1264 01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 7: in games last year. It's an interesting tactic. I have 1265 01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:46,920 Speaker 7: no idea if it's going to work out or not, 1266 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 7: but it's it's interesting that he's that devoted to it, 1267 01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 7: that he's, you know, throwing a wrench into practice in 1268 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 7: random spots to kind of get the players out of 1269 01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:58,240 Speaker 7: their comfort zone. That's that's maybe the other piece that 1270 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 7: I've noticed with him that's pretty different. 1271 01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 1: By the way, Joel, the last couple of days, they 1272 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 1: have increased the practices, I mean from an hour to 1273 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,920 Speaker 1: an hour and a half. It's not like it's overbearing 1274 01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:14,880 Speaker 1: and they're doing it before it is truly truly scorching 1275 01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:19,160 Speaker 1: hot out. But it's been warm, right. I know this 1276 01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:22,800 Speaker 1: is an NFLPA thing, and I get it the collective 1277 01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:25,400 Speaker 1: bargaining agreement in terms of players and the amount of 1278 01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 1: practice they're doing. And maybe I'm just old, but I'm 1279 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 1: still a little bit surprised at just how short the 1280 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 1: practices are and at least to this point. And you 1281 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong, the lack of overall intensity. 1282 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm not the one out there, so don't get me wrong, 1283 01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 1: and I'm not trying to be. You know, the guy 1284 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 1: that sits here talks about how tough Dick Buckets was. 1285 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 1: But have you been, I guess, in any way, shape 1286 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 1: or form, surprised by the I'll say lack of work 1287 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 1: to this point, if that makes sense relatively speaking, I. 1288 01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:02,680 Speaker 7: Think that you know, I've been covering the NFL for 1289 01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:05,000 Speaker 7: about a decade now, and I think that that puts 1290 01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,240 Speaker 7: me in the range where I'm I this is kind 1291 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:10,560 Speaker 7: of what I own pretty much what I've seen, even 1292 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 7: in covering another team and covering another coach in Sean Payton. 1293 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:18,200 Speaker 7: I attribute a lot of it to a lot of 1294 01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 7: it to the NFLPA, but a lot of it also 1295 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,240 Speaker 7: to what goes on in those conversations with the training 1296 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:28,920 Speaker 7: staff and the medical staff behind the scenes. I don't 1297 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 7: necessarily know that you would see it different anywhere other 1298 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 7: than I think the one place that has a reputation 1299 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,280 Speaker 7: for being more physical than anywhere else is Pittsburgh with 1300 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:39,720 Speaker 7: Mike Tomlin. But he's he's also kind of an old 1301 01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 7: school coach himself. He's been there a really long time, 1302 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:45,320 Speaker 7: and I think he kind of pushes the boundaries on 1303 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:49,120 Speaker 7: the physicality. I I'll tell you this. I mean, I 1304 01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 7: think basically everyone you know who coached a in a 1305 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 7: different era of football says that it's you know, even 1306 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,480 Speaker 7: when they say they're being physical, they're not really being physical, right. 1307 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 3: I just don't know. 1308 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:06,960 Speaker 7: That it's that different from anywhere else around the NFL. 1309 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:10,840 Speaker 7: It just feels like to me, this is the way 1310 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 7: the NFL crime in it's now. 1311 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 1: It's basically the collective Barney agreement, right. I mean, didn't 1312 01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 1: they say we only want to do so? And I 1313 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 1: get it again, I get it. I guess the question 1314 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:20,200 Speaker 1: I had in Steve and I were talking about this 1315 01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:23,960 Speaker 1: yesterday Joel, but Joel ericson our guest, and that is, 1316 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 1: do we know? Do we have enough body of work 1317 01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:32,600 Speaker 1: to know? You know, the Colts have had a history 1318 01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:36,280 Speaker 1: in the last decade or so of seemingly being a 1319 01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,800 Speaker 1: team that has dealt with more little injuries over the 1320 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:41,240 Speaker 1: course of the year than most franchises. Maybe we just 1321 01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 1: say that because we cover them, right, But do we 1322 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:49,360 Speaker 1: know or will we ever know, whether or not scaling 1323 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 1: back practices increases or decreases injury potential. 1324 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:57,600 Speaker 7: That's that's a fantastic question, because I think it's not 1325 01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 7: just the CBA. I also think it is these teams. 1326 01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 7: I think it's the school of thought within the people 1327 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 7: who are in charge of strength and conditioning and rest 1328 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:10,040 Speaker 7: and recovery and all that stuff. I think that is 1329 01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:11,720 Speaker 7: it is their school of thought that this is the 1330 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:15,480 Speaker 7: way to go as well. Without seeing the data, Without 1331 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:17,360 Speaker 7: seeing the data that they have and that they use 1332 01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:19,840 Speaker 7: it at, you know, the owners meetings and stuff like that, 1333 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:21,919 Speaker 7: I think it's really hard for us to know because 1334 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 7: I know in terms of the cults having more injuries, 1335 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,959 Speaker 7: I know another thing that the NFLPA has really talked 1336 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 7: about a lot is surfaces, the surfaces they're playing on, 1337 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,440 Speaker 7: and that the old Lucas oil turf was known as 1338 01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:39,600 Speaker 7: a bad surface to be playing on, and that that 1339 01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:41,840 Speaker 7: that that was there's a thought school of thought that 1340 01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:44,600 Speaker 7: that has contributed to some of the colts injuries over 1341 01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:48,040 Speaker 7: the years. Without having all of the data available to us, 1342 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:51,080 Speaker 7: I don't think we have. I think it's really hard 1343 01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 7: for us to do anything more than speculate on it. 1344 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:56,160 Speaker 7: And I also don't know how to make them give 1345 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 7: us that data or or sit down with us and say, okay, 1346 01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:02,880 Speaker 7: you're doing doing this? How different from previous? How is 1347 01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 7: that different from you know, twenty years ago. 1348 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:06,600 Speaker 3: More or thirty years ago? 1349 01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:08,560 Speaker 1: Joel? Do you think I should get three and a 1350 01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:11,120 Speaker 1: half percent of Bernard Ryman's contract since it was on 1351 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 1: this show that he said that they were far offer 1352 01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 1: than they got a deal done. 1353 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:18,640 Speaker 7: Uh, I'm totally fine with giving you three and a 1354 01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:21,640 Speaker 7: half percent his I'm pretty sure that's more than his 1355 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:22,320 Speaker 7: agent gets. 1356 01:08:22,360 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 1: But I have an agent typically gets seven percent, right, 1357 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:25,920 Speaker 1: isn't that about right? 1358 01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:28,200 Speaker 3: No? No, no, No, that's gone down over the. 1359 01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 2: Years, has it really? 1360 01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:31,200 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of these agents have like one 1361 01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:33,200 Speaker 1: hundred guys, so it doesn't matter. So what's the agent 1362 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 1: get's the cut? 1363 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,200 Speaker 3: I think it's more in like the I thought. 1364 01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:39,160 Speaker 7: I'm in front of me right now, and I know 1365 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:40,720 Speaker 7: we have agency if I was wrong, But I think 1366 01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:41,280 Speaker 7: it's more in like. 1367 01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 1: The two percent, Joel, it's gone down, Joel. Hang on, Joel, 1368 01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 1: I'd like to I'd like to walk back what you 1369 01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:49,680 Speaker 1: just said. I know there might be agents in this 1370 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:53,320 Speaker 1: city that are listening. Let me let me inform you 1371 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:55,760 Speaker 1: of something we got twenty two female listeners. That's now 1372 01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:57,800 Speaker 1: up to twenty four. I think when Eddie was gone. 1373 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:02,400 Speaker 1: The other day we picked up female listener number twenty four. Okay, yes, 1374 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:05,559 Speaker 1: just yesterday Shannon, who I've been dating now for twenty years, 1375 01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:07,719 Speaker 1: actually asked what I do when I go to work. 1376 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 1: So so that's off the table. My mom's at lunch 1377 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 1: today right now. And then so I appreciate your belief 1378 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 1: and confidence that there are listeners of this program, But 1379 01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 1: this is basically you and I sitting in a tent. 1380 01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: You know that, right. 1381 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:27,760 Speaker 7: I get enough text messages after I'm on with you, 1382 01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 7: j because I know there are people listening. 1383 01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,000 Speaker 3: Really, Oh yeah? 1384 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,880 Speaker 1: Is it mostly people saying how big an ass is 1385 01:09:33,880 --> 01:09:36,600 Speaker 1: that guy? Is that typically what most of them say? 1386 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:38,599 Speaker 3: No, No, most of them are. 1387 01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,559 Speaker 7: Most of them are like, most of them are like, hey, 1388 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:44,920 Speaker 7: I heard you on Jake talking about. 1389 01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 3: This and this or that. Sometimes it's football, a lot 1390 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:48,360 Speaker 3: of times it's about beer or something like that. 1391 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 1: That's how it goes on this program, Joel. Let's be honest, right, 1392 01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:56,439 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the way it goes. You know, you 1393 01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:59,320 Speaker 1: sign up for this class, you're getting more, You're getting 1394 01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:02,200 Speaker 1: a couple of elective along with it. Okay. Now, hold on, Eddie, 1395 01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 1: do you haven't had the breaking new sounder. We have 1396 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,960 Speaker 1: a verdict from Matt Taylor on the pronunciation of the 1397 01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:13,479 Speaker 1: guy that right now is the clubhouse leader at corner, 1398 01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 1: the rookie out of the University of Minnesota. Justin is 1399 01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 1: the first name. There is discussion whether it is Wally 1400 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:21,439 Speaker 1: or Whaley for the last name, and we have a 1401 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,519 Speaker 1: ruling from Matt Taylor, the voice of the Colts, who 1402 01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:26,360 Speaker 1: of course would know you would like to guess for 1403 01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: what answer Matt on that, Well, that's true, it's not Matt, 1404 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,919 Speaker 1: Joel Joe. You would like to You're going with which one. 1405 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:36,760 Speaker 7: I've been I've been assuming it's Wally, so I'm gonna 1406 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:37,160 Speaker 7: stick with. 1407 01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:41,600 Speaker 1: It, Eddie, Wally Wally is indeed correct. That is the 1408 01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:44,040 Speaker 1: correct answer. It is Justin Wallace. I don't know why 1409 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:46,719 Speaker 1: I've heard it both ways, though I'm not wrong there right. 1410 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 7: There is a there is I know there is a 1411 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 7: beat writer who I will not name, but that has 1412 01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:54,960 Speaker 7: has had the other pronunciation. So you've definitely heard it 1413 01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 7: the other way. 1414 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 1: Okay, but it is indeed Wallett. Now I'm telling you, 1415 01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:01,440 Speaker 1: so what said do I get for Ryman. 1416 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:04,680 Speaker 3: Let's go too, and I say two and a half. 1417 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:05,519 Speaker 3: We'll give you two and a half. 1418 01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:12,040 Speaker 1: Wow, listen, I'll take I'll take point zero two point 1419 01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 1: zero two. Eddie, can you look up for me please? 1420 01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 1: I mean it's got to be an easy Joel. Are 1421 01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:17,920 Speaker 1: you a math whiz? You're a writer, so you're not right. 1422 01:11:17,920 --> 01:11:19,679 Speaker 1: You've flunked every math class you ever took, right. 1423 01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 7: I I was good at masks back then, but now 1424 01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 7: someone gives it to me on a print out. 1425 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,960 Speaker 1: By the way, my buddy, my buddy, Rick Givers. Rick 1426 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:30,400 Speaker 1: Givers is an agent, but he's a media agent, and 1427 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:33,200 Speaker 1: he says there's at least one agent listening. Now. Rick 1428 01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:36,200 Speaker 1: thinks I should get twelve percent, but that's because we're buddies. 1429 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:37,160 Speaker 3: Eddie. 1430 01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:39,240 Speaker 1: Can you look up what point zero two percent is 1431 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 1: of one hundred million or just of one hundred? What's 1432 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 1: point zero? I should know that what's point zero two 1433 01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 1: of one hundred? So one percent of one hundred is 1434 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 1: one So. 1435 01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 2: Really you need to look up what point oh two 1436 01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 2: of one hundred is? 1437 01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:56,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, obvious, but one hundred million, right, So then you 1438 01:11:56,120 --> 01:12:04,160 Speaker 1: got to add, yes, it's two no, two percent, two percent. 1439 01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:07,880 Speaker 2: Is two hundred Jake, it would be two. 1440 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, but yeah, point zero two is two percent. 1441 01:12:12,760 --> 01:12:14,800 Speaker 1: Correct, that's two one hundred Yeah, you're right. Okay, So 1442 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:17,280 Speaker 1: but of one hundred so of one hundred million, how 1443 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 1: much is that? 1444 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:19,280 Speaker 2: That would be two million? 1445 01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 1: Oh well, hell, let's go. Yeah, I'll take the point 1446 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:29,439 Speaker 1: oh two. No, point oh two of a percentage, right, 1447 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: two two million would be oh yeah, you're right for 1448 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:34,360 Speaker 1: one hundred million, you're right, Yeah, let's go. I'll take 1449 01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:36,639 Speaker 1: the point oh two again. I mean, like I said, 1450 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:38,719 Speaker 1: I flunked algebra. I had to take it seven times 1451 01:12:38,720 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 1: and then missus Means helped me get through it. So 1452 01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:42,760 Speaker 1: two and a half million for point oh two. Hell, 1453 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:45,679 Speaker 1: I'll take point oh two. Right, I'll take two hundred 1454 01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:48,120 Speaker 1: fifty grand. That would be point oh two. 1455 01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 3: Right, Joel, I believe though. 1456 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,120 Speaker 1: Come on, keep up here, man, I mean, you know 1457 01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:54,040 Speaker 1: we're doing quick math. You got to keep up, Joel. 1458 01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:56,040 Speaker 1: You're with math wises here. 1459 01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:57,000 Speaker 3: I helped a little bit. 1460 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:58,560 Speaker 7: But now now we're getting. 1461 01:12:58,280 --> 01:12:59,880 Speaker 3: Further into it, and I'm getting right again. 1462 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:02,280 Speaker 1: Listen, I got all kinds of arrows flying past me. 1463 01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:05,519 Speaker 1: All right, Joel, much appreciated. What's your beer order? In 1464 01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:06,960 Speaker 1: case I don't talk to you between now and when 1465 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 1: I go to Milwaukee. Same as always. 1466 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:11,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, same as always. Yep. 1467 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:14,840 Speaker 7: If you find, if you find the fat squirrel, bring 1468 01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:15,519 Speaker 7: that back as well. 1469 01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:17,760 Speaker 1: That's now. Now here's the thing. And you got to 1470 01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:20,080 Speaker 1: clarify this. When you're talking to a Wisconsin I you're 1471 01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:22,559 Speaker 1: actually talking about the beverage fat squirrel. You don't want 1472 01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,519 Speaker 1: me to bring back an actual hefty squirrel, right because no, no, 1473 01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:27,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. 1474 01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 2: No, I mean, listen, we have squirrels in Indiana. 1475 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 3: We don't, we don't. 1476 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 1: I don't need any squirrel understood. But but as you know, 1477 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 1: if it's from Wisconsin, it's a fatter squirrel because everything 1478 01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 1: up there's fatter because they live on beer and cheese. Right, 1479 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:38,439 Speaker 1: I mean we know this, right. 1480 01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 3: That's a thousand there's zero debate about that. 1481 01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:43,519 Speaker 1: See one thousand percent. Now we know what that is, 1482 01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 1: A thousand percent of the hundred million. I'd take all right, 1483 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:49,840 Speaker 1: Joel appreciated as always. You bet you bet, Joela Ericson, 1484 01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:51,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure thrilled is to be spending his off day 1485 01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:53,840 Speaker 1: with us today, Eddie. Anything else we need to go 1486 01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:55,680 Speaker 1: over with a quick math. Now, I'm very good at 1487 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:58,719 Speaker 1: multiplying numbers in my head. But that's it. I've always 1488 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: been thrown off by the decimal point percentages. Totally thrown 1489 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 1: off by that. 1490 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 2: No, I think we're good on math for now. 1491 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:10,479 Speaker 1: But two percent and point zero two percent are different, 1492 01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:10,840 Speaker 1: are they not? 1493 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 2: They are different? 1494 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:14,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's my point. 1495 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:19,040 Speaker 2: Yes, but you said to multiple, you said take one 1496 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 2: hundred and multiple point zero two. 1497 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:24,760 Speaker 1: Okay, what you're saying, I'm saying point zero two of 1498 01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:28,240 Speaker 1: a percentage point, so one fifth of a percent, so 1499 01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 1: that would mean. 1500 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:33,799 Speaker 2: Point zero zero two zero two two three zeros. 1501 01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:40,160 Speaker 1: But again I'm talking about if you say point zero 1502 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:44,880 Speaker 1: two percent of the contract, I'm saying one fifth of 1503 01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:51,599 Speaker 1: a percentage point, yes, not two percent overall. That's different, right, Yes, 1504 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 1: that is different. Yes, okay, so that's where I was confused. 1505 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:59,360 Speaker 1: But either way, he ain't giving me twenty bucks, is 1506 01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:03,519 Speaker 1: what we're getting at. I'll take it. I am curious, though, 1507 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:07,240 Speaker 1: you would be stunned if you knew for professional athletes, 1508 01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:10,880 Speaker 1: when you hear one hundred million dollar contract, after you 1509 01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:15,760 Speaker 1: subtract taxes, after you subtract agency fee, I mean, there's 1510 01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:19,719 Speaker 1: a lot that goes into that where that one hundred 1511 01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:22,400 Speaker 1: million is a lot less. It's don't get me wrong. 1512 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:25,040 Speaker 1: I mean it is generational wealth. I'm not saying that, 1513 01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 1: but I'm saying the thought that a guy is automatically 1514 01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:31,040 Speaker 1: walking away with a suitcase with one hundred million dollars in. 1515 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:32,599 Speaker 2: It is not the case at all. 1516 01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:36,280 Speaker 1: I just saw. Is it Trevor Ariza that I saw that? 1517 01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:39,439 Speaker 1: I think it was Trevor Ariza that made like forty 1518 01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 1: eight million dollars in his NBA career, and there he 1519 01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:44,599 Speaker 1: is like seventy one thousand dollars per month in the whole. 1520 01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:48,320 Speaker 1: If it's not Trevor Ariza, my apologies to Trevor Ariza, 1521 01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:50,160 Speaker 1: but it was I think that was the player I 1522 01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:53,639 Speaker 1: read that about. But it is, and I think that's 1523 01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:57,400 Speaker 1: that sounds insane, But I think that the money goes 1524 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 1: away faster than you think. I think it goes way 1525 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:03,600 Speaker 1: faster than you think. Debbie Antonelli gonna join us on 1526 01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 1: the program.

And yes, I mean she could 1778 01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:14,080 Speaker 1: begin practicing and just simply sit out games. But or 1779 01:28:14,120 --> 01:28:17,439 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like in other words, it's 1780 01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:20,040 Speaker 1: not like they're gonna wait until she's available to the 1781 01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 1: like then she's gonna start practicing. But you have to 1782 01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:26,719 Speaker 1: wonder if the possibility isn't there that they go until 1783 01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:28,040 Speaker 1: the seventeenth without. 1784 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:30,719 Speaker 2: Her, It would be likely, Jake, because you just don't 1785 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:32,880 Speaker 2: know how much time you're actually gonna have on the 1786 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:35,960 Speaker 2: court to practice during that stretch of play that. 1787 01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:38,840 Speaker 1: You just mentioned. Yeah, that's a better way of saying, yeah. 1788 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:40,000 Speaker 2: Like you may have a couple of shoot rounds in 1789 01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:41,640 Speaker 2: the morning, like they have been a couple times this 1790 01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:44,760 Speaker 2: year where the Fever have not had a practice on 1791 01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:46,479 Speaker 2: the day between games and they don't have a morning 1792 01:28:46,520 --> 01:28:48,680 Speaker 2: shoot around. They just go to the arena of the 1793 01:28:48,760 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 2: night they play and play the game like that's just 1794 01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:52,439 Speaker 2: where they're at. 1795 01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:53,240 Speaker 7: You know. 1796 01:28:53,360 --> 01:28:59,040 Speaker 1: The the other thing, Eddie, that you look at, and 1797 01:28:59,560 --> 01:29:02,320 Speaker 1: it's to say, because Kaitlyn Clark is, you know, I 1798 01:29:02,320 --> 01:29:04,320 Speaker 1: mean you're talking about the best, one of the best, 1799 01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:05,880 Speaker 1: if not the best players in the league. I mean, 1800 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:08,760 Speaker 1: one of the best, and certainly for this team, the 1801 01:29:08,800 --> 01:29:11,439 Speaker 1: focal point of the team. But at the same time, 1802 01:29:11,479 --> 01:29:14,719 Speaker 1: they have had players that have played well in her absence. 1803 01:29:14,720 --> 01:29:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm not saying because of her absence, but they've had 1804 01:29:17,200 --> 01:29:20,479 Speaker 1: players that have played well in her absence, and they're 1805 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:22,240 Speaker 1: starting to kind of round into form a little bit 1806 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:23,000 Speaker 1: with that, right. 1807 01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:25,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit. Sophie Cunningham's play has certainly stepped up, 1808 01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:29,360 Speaker 2: especially now that she's in the starting lineup. She's made 1809 01:29:29,439 --> 01:29:32,760 Speaker 2: multiple threes and I forget the exact number. I think 1810 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 2: it's like five or six consecutive games. The fever of 1811 01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:39,680 Speaker 2: finding stability and consistent production nightly from Kelsey Mitchell, who 1812 01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 2: was second in the WN scoring this month, and she 1813 01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:46,439 Speaker 2: has the possibility of being first depending on what kind 1814 01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:49,400 Speaker 2: of output she has tonight, the only player who scored 1815 01:29:49,439 --> 01:29:52,080 Speaker 2: more points. And it's like we're talking about like decimal 1816 01:29:52,120 --> 01:29:55,000 Speaker 2: points here, Jake. Okay, not to bring back numbers here, 1817 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:58,719 Speaker 2: but it's like less than you know, five half a points, 1818 01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:01,160 Speaker 2: less than half a point between her and Asia Wilson. 1819 01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:04,839 Speaker 2: So my guess is that if she has another terrific 1820 01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:06,880 Speaker 2: game like she did on Sunday against Chicago where she 1821 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:10,360 Speaker 2: scored thirty five points, then you're looking at the w 1822 01:30:10,479 --> 01:30:11,800 Speaker 2: player of the month potentially. 1823 01:30:12,479 --> 01:30:15,679 Speaker 1: The again game gets underway tonight, you are doing the 1824 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:17,000 Speaker 1: pre and post game. Is that correct? 1825 01:30:17,040 --> 01:30:19,320 Speaker 2: That is right, six forty five pre game coverage right 1826 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:22,559 Speaker 2: here on the fan John Nolan and Briogas at seven o'clock. 1827 01:30:23,040 --> 01:30:25,680 Speaker 1: Okay, so everything gets underway tonight, six forty five. You 1828 01:30:25,680 --> 01:30:28,519 Speaker 1: can hear that coverage. Debbie Antonelli joining us on the program. 1829 01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:31,360 Speaker 1: That will be thirty five minutes from now. Off day 1830 01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:33,120 Speaker 1: for the Colts. But that is not to say that 1831 01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:35,800 Speaker 1: we don't have things to discuss. We'll let you know 1832 01:30:35,880 --> 01:30:41,320 Speaker 1: what those things are next. You know, one thing, Colts 1833 01:30:41,320 --> 01:30:43,840 Speaker 1: off day, and there are a couple of storylines to 1834 01:30:43,880 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 1: keep an eye on that we're going to get into 1835 01:30:45,080 --> 01:30:47,559 Speaker 1: here in just a second. My name is Jay Query. 1836 01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:49,599 Speaker 1: Eddie Garrison the other voice you have in his program. 1837 01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:52,120 Speaker 1: How is Querrying Company here in ninety three five and 1838 01:30:52,160 --> 01:30:55,400 Speaker 1: one oh seven five, the fan, the company itself, all 1839 01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:58,200 Speaker 1: of you, and we think all of you that take 1840 01:30:58,240 --> 01:30:59,880 Speaker 1: time out of your day to listen to this program. 1841 01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:01,519 Speaker 2: How are you, Jake? We have one hour left? 1842 01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:02,160 Speaker 1: What's that? 1843 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 2: I said? How are you Jake? We have one hour left? 1844 01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:04,760 Speaker 10: Uh? 1845 01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:05,120 Speaker 3: You know what. 1846 01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:09,559 Speaker 1: I'm okay. I can't complain yesterday by the way, Yeah, 1847 01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:12,000 Speaker 1: let's not get too ahead of ourselves here, you know, 1848 01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:12,759 Speaker 1: I mean okay? 1849 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:13,760 Speaker 10: Uh? 1850 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:16,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, you were down at Cincinnati to watch the Dodgers 1851 01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:18,559 Speaker 1: and the Reds, right, yeah with my mom? Yes, how 1852 01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:20,519 Speaker 1: hot was it? By the way, So it was pretty 1853 01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:23,160 Speaker 1: hot there for the when we got there, we got 1854 01:31:23,200 --> 01:31:25,479 Speaker 1: there ninety minutes before because that's when Gate's opened. It saw 1855 01:31:25,439 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of Dodgers batting practice, walked around God's 1856 01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 1: Country that is Great American Ballpark for a little bit, 1857 01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:35,320 Speaker 1: and then the sun went behind the stadium, and then 1858 01:31:35,360 --> 01:31:38,679 Speaker 1: once it got dark, it got hotter again. 1859 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:41,479 Speaker 2: It's like there was an area from like the you know, 1860 01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:45,200 Speaker 2: what's a second it's ning to the seventh inning, it 1861 01:31:45,280 --> 01:31:47,240 Speaker 2: was okay, and then for some reason the eighth they 1862 01:31:47,360 --> 01:31:49,960 Speaker 2: just boom and got hot again. And I was like, 1863 01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:51,760 Speaker 2: what in the world why the humidity went up? I mean, 1864 01:31:51,800 --> 01:31:53,639 Speaker 2: it'd be my guests, I'd be mine as well. 1865 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:55,479 Speaker 1: Okay, here's an unpopular opinion for. 1866 01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,120 Speaker 2: You for me. Why are you saying I have an 1867 01:31:58,200 --> 01:31:58,960 Speaker 2: unpopular opinion? 1868 01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:03,080 Speaker 1: No, no, no, I'm off for an unpopular opinion for your ingestion. 1869 01:32:03,200 --> 01:32:03,479 Speaker 2: Okay. 1870 01:32:05,920 --> 01:32:10,080 Speaker 1: As mentioned many times, I grew up a Reds fan. Yes, 1871 01:32:10,760 --> 01:32:14,040 Speaker 1: that was the first team for probably not unlike most 1872 01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,920 Speaker 1: people in Indianapolis. That was the first major league team 1873 01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:19,719 Speaker 1: that I saw play. My dad was in the steel 1874 01:32:19,760 --> 01:32:22,760 Speaker 1: business and his company had season tickets to the Reds, 1875 01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:24,760 Speaker 1: so we'd get, you know, five or six games a 1876 01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:25,559 Speaker 1: summer probably. 1877 01:32:25,600 --> 01:32:27,080 Speaker 2: So what did he steal jake. 1878 01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:31,240 Speaker 1: People's money that wanted to buy aluminum. 1879 01:32:31,439 --> 01:32:31,599 Speaker 3: Oh. 1880 01:32:31,640 --> 01:32:35,840 Speaker 1: Interesting, And my dad actually sold a lot of the 1881 01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:38,439 Speaker 1: steel that is in Turn two of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. 1882 01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 1: He sold a lot of the steel that went into 1883 01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:43,760 Speaker 1: the building of the Hoosier Dome. And so at any rate, 1884 01:32:44,200 --> 01:32:46,280 Speaker 1: we would go to Reds games and I loved it. 1885 01:32:46,439 --> 01:32:50,000 Speaker 1: And yes, this is a childhood nostalgia speaking, I am 1886 01:32:50,120 --> 01:32:53,760 Speaker 1: well aware of the fact that Riverfront Coliseum was a 1887 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:56,519 Speaker 1: riverfront stadium excuse me, was a dump. It was a 1888 01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:59,400 Speaker 1: cookie cutter stadium. You know, you had the red, yellow, 1889 01:32:59,400 --> 01:33:01,879 Speaker 1: green sea which was kind of fun. The blue seats, 1890 01:33:02,040 --> 01:33:04,880 Speaker 1: you know, were really good seats. There was nothing about 1891 01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:07,559 Speaker 1: it that was special. It looked almost identical to Bush 1892 01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:10,280 Speaker 1: Stadium in Saint Louis, with the exception of the obviously 1893 01:33:10,320 --> 01:33:13,240 Speaker 1: the kind of arts configurations on top of Bush Stadium. 1894 01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 1: It looked the same as Three River Stadium in Pittsburgh, 1895 01:33:16,240 --> 01:33:19,439 Speaker 1: where I've been, you know, it was the Fulton County Stadium. 1896 01:33:19,479 --> 01:33:26,160 Speaker 1: It was the cookie cutter multi purpose stadiums. But nostalgically speaking, 1897 01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:29,240 Speaker 1: it was special to me because just that's the place 1898 01:33:29,280 --> 01:33:32,240 Speaker 1: where I went and saw so many games when they 1899 01:33:32,960 --> 01:33:36,760 Speaker 1: built Great American Ballpark, and it was weird for a 1900 01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:40,040 Speaker 1: while there, like seeing you know, it was when they 1901 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:42,120 Speaker 1: were transferring from one to the other and seeing the 1902 01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:46,000 Speaker 1: development of it there. But when they built Great American Ballpark, 1903 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:51,479 Speaker 1: I had just so many like hopes about what it 1904 01:33:51,479 --> 01:33:54,439 Speaker 1: would look like, and you know, whatever else, I think 1905 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:57,559 Speaker 1: it is the most disappointing. Every time I go to it, 1906 01:33:57,560 --> 01:34:01,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, it feels like a state put together by Ikea. 1907 01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:04,320 Speaker 1: Like it's just like a Lego I don't know. It 1908 01:34:04,320 --> 01:34:07,439 Speaker 1: feels like a generic there's no character to it. I 1909 01:34:07,960 --> 01:34:10,240 Speaker 1: know that like the to me, now, you tell me 1910 01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:12,759 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, Eddie. Obviously for you though, that probably 1911 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:14,439 Speaker 1: is the first place that you watch games, right. 1912 01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:16,120 Speaker 2: Mm hmm, it is. 1913 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:20,000 Speaker 1: I just like it doesn't. I thought they had an 1914 01:34:20,040 --> 01:34:23,719 Speaker 1: opportunity to really build something unique and special, and there's 1915 01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:25,719 Speaker 1: nothing about that stadium that is either. 1916 01:34:26,560 --> 01:34:28,880 Speaker 2: I would say the one thing I've been to stadiums 1917 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:32,559 Speaker 2: that is one of the few where I can walk 1918 01:34:32,600 --> 01:34:35,760 Speaker 2: along the concourse and still be able to watch the game. 1919 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 1: Fair Okay, fair point. 1920 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,240 Speaker 2: Whereas if I'm at actually can't do that at a 1921 01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:41,680 Speaker 2: Cults game, right right, Well, yeah, if I'm at the 1922 01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:45,080 Speaker 2: concourse on like another ballpark, I don't have the ability 1923 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:46,360 Speaker 2: to just be able to look to my left or 1924 01:34:46,400 --> 01:34:48,240 Speaker 2: look to my right, like, oh, that's what's going on 1925 01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:48,679 Speaker 2: in the game. 1926 01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 3: That's fair. 1927 01:34:49,320 --> 01:34:50,960 Speaker 1: That's a good point. I mean, you certainly can do 1928 01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:55,519 Speaker 1: that here at Victory Field. You can do that at Yeah, 1929 01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:57,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a good point. And I don't 1930 01:34:57,720 --> 01:34:59,360 Speaker 1: even know there were there were spots where you couldn't 1931 01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:00,880 Speaker 1: even do that at river Front. It was kind of weird. 1932 01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:03,000 Speaker 1: The way it was laid out, so that's fair, and 1933 01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:05,240 Speaker 1: you can walk around it, I mean, and there are Listen, 1934 01:35:05,240 --> 01:35:07,360 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that it's a terrible stadium. I just 1935 01:35:07,400 --> 01:35:10,760 Speaker 1: thought there was nothing about it. I mean, the you know, 1936 01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:13,200 Speaker 1: the stacks out in the outfield, I mean, I know, 1937 01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:17,320 Speaker 1: it's powerful. Yeah, I mean you know, and you can 1938 01:35:17,400 --> 01:35:19,080 Speaker 1: see a little bit of the river. So that's cool. 1939 01:35:20,600 --> 01:35:25,000 Speaker 1: But nonetheless, but I do still like the Reds. But 1940 01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:27,400 Speaker 1: I realize now as I'm an older person, I like 1941 01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:30,280 Speaker 1: the nostalgia of the Reds more so than I even 1942 01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:31,799 Speaker 1: like the Reds themselves well. 1943 01:35:31,640 --> 01:35:34,479 Speaker 2: In large part because that's where their entire franchise success 1944 01:35:34,560 --> 01:35:36,320 Speaker 2: is like totally right. 1945 01:35:36,439 --> 01:35:39,160 Speaker 1: I mean, in your lifetime it's been how did you 1946 01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:41,040 Speaker 1: become a Reds fan just because it's the local team 1947 01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:43,639 Speaker 1: through osmosis? Because they I mean, they have not had 1948 01:35:43,720 --> 01:35:45,840 Speaker 1: a lot of success in your lifetime, for sure. 1949 01:35:45,880 --> 01:35:46,600 Speaker 2: My dad. 1950 01:35:48,680 --> 01:35:53,040 Speaker 1: Colts off day today and back on the practice field tomorrow. 1951 01:35:53,040 --> 01:35:54,920 Speaker 1: They have a night practice tomorrow, Is that correct? 1952 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:58,360 Speaker 2: Yep? First, every night practice a great not great American. 1953 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 1: Ball, A true night practice. They have had late afternoon practices, 1954 01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,920 Speaker 1: but this is a true night practice. Grand Park up 1955 01:36:04,960 --> 01:36:07,000 Speaker 1: in Westfield, and it is cool up there for sure. 1956 01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:09,760 Speaker 1: Here are the things to keep an eye on eight 1957 01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:13,920 Speaker 1: pm to ten pm. Make sure you take the bug spray. 1958 01:36:14,040 --> 01:36:15,760 Speaker 1: You're not kidding there, You know what do you want 1959 01:36:15,760 --> 01:36:16,439 Speaker 1: to know? A bug spray? 1960 01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:20,639 Speaker 2: Hint you get you get the Centronello bracelets or something 1961 01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:21,559 Speaker 2: instead of bug spray. 1962 01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,840 Speaker 1: Really well, that sounds convenient. I was going to go 1963 01:36:25,840 --> 01:36:28,599 Speaker 1: with this Avon Skinso Soft, which is a lotion. If 1964 01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:30,680 Speaker 1: you put that on, it has a natural repellent on it. 1965 01:36:31,120 --> 01:36:34,400 Speaker 1: And that is a well kept secret or a little 1966 01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:37,200 Speaker 1: known secret about Avon Skinso Soft if they still make it. 1967 01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:40,120 Speaker 1: The other is and this is very disgusting to do, 1968 01:36:40,200 --> 01:36:42,920 Speaker 1: but I think it does work. Before you were like, 1969 01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:45,240 Speaker 1: if you're to camp out, take two shots of vinegar. 1970 01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:49,080 Speaker 1: Now that might be an old wives tale, but somebody 1971 01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:51,160 Speaker 1: tell me if they've ever heard that. You take two 1972 01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:53,760 Speaker 1: shots of vinegar and then it actually seeps through your 1973 01:36:53,760 --> 01:36:57,200 Speaker 1: pores and yeah, I mean you smell disgusting, but mosquitoes 1974 01:36:57,200 --> 01:36:59,760 Speaker 1: don't like it. So you have that going for you, 1975 01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:04,240 Speaker 1: which is nice. But the Colts camp tomorrow, here's what 1976 01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:07,640 Speaker 1: you want to look for. You want to look at 1977 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:12,679 Speaker 1: the quarterback, the cornerback position. What's happening in that battle 1978 01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:18,559 Speaker 1: because Jalen Jones was getting a lot of competition from 1979 01:37:19,479 --> 01:37:22,320 Speaker 1: Justin Wally. Justin Wally, the rookie out of Minnesota, might 1980 01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:26,000 Speaker 1: actually have been at this point holding down the starting 1981 01:37:26,040 --> 01:37:30,840 Speaker 1: spot at that corner position. But Jalen Jones was and 1982 01:37:31,080 --> 01:37:33,280 Speaker 1: is still a guy that I think has shown a 1983 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:37,599 Speaker 1: lot of flash young player year three. But yesterday, at 1984 01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 1: the end of practice, he went down with what appears 1985 01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:42,560 Speaker 1: to be a hamstring injury, and so you want to 1986 01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:45,680 Speaker 1: keep an eye on what his availability will be. In 1987 01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:51,080 Speaker 1: addition to that, the third member of that battle is 1988 01:37:51,160 --> 01:37:56,959 Speaker 1: Juju Brentz, and Juju Brentz, even though it was not visible, 1989 01:37:57,760 --> 01:38:02,720 Speaker 1: it later was stated that he also has a hamstring 1990 01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:08,920 Speaker 1: issue that he is dealing with. So there's that number one. 1991 01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:14,000 Speaker 1: Number two Michael Pittman Junior yesterday groin injury into practice. 1992 01:38:14,280 --> 01:38:18,200 Speaker 1: Don't know the severity of that, and Pittman Junior is 1993 01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:21,240 Speaker 1: one that has kind of battled through some injury issues 1994 01:38:21,960 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. But one thing we've learned 1995 01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:27,000 Speaker 1: is that that dude is tough and is willing to 1996 01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:29,200 Speaker 1: go out there and give it as all. Because he 1997 01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 1: played with pretty serious back injuries. I mean, he's and 1998 01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:37,760 Speaker 1: he has been a solid, solid, reliable player obviously at 1999 01:38:37,800 --> 01:38:42,880 Speaker 1: the wide receiver position as well. Alec Pierce is still 2000 01:38:42,960 --> 01:38:46,719 Speaker 1: chasing a new contract. Bernard Rayman got his, Alec Pierce 2001 01:38:46,720 --> 01:38:50,200 Speaker 1: one would assume will be the next but that position 2002 01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 1: also It may well be that the Colts Brass, before 2003 01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:57,840 Speaker 1: offering Alec Pierce a big deal, is waiting to see 2004 01:38:58,280 --> 01:39:03,960 Speaker 1: what happens with the situation with Adie Mitchell and whether 2005 01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:06,000 Speaker 1: or not Adie Mitchell is able to come out of 2006 01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:09,760 Speaker 1: his shell a little bit, and if yesterday is indication 2007 01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:13,160 Speaker 1: he finally is starting to turn that corner. And Adie 2008 01:39:13,160 --> 01:39:17,200 Speaker 1: Mitchell yesterday had probably from a camp standpoint, his best 2009 01:39:17,280 --> 01:39:21,160 Speaker 1: day as a pro. But what can you make of that, 2010 01:39:22,720 --> 01:39:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, when it comes to successful practices, what can 2011 01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:33,000 Speaker 1: you take from that? That's but you'd rather have that 2012 01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:36,760 Speaker 1: than have the guy be, you know, in absentia when 2013 01:39:36,760 --> 01:39:40,320 Speaker 1: it comes to practice. And then you have the situation 2014 01:39:40,439 --> 01:39:43,519 Speaker 1: that Joela Erickson mentioned earlier, which I found interesting because 2015 01:39:43,560 --> 01:39:46,639 Speaker 1: I really did think this situation had already sorted itself out. 2016 01:39:46,920 --> 01:39:49,559 Speaker 1: But Danny Pinter now is starting to get some reps 2017 01:39:49,600 --> 01:39:53,920 Speaker 1: at the center position and Bordolini, who I thought was 2018 01:39:54,080 --> 01:39:58,439 Speaker 1: a kind of a solid go and there was not 2019 01:39:58,680 --> 01:40:04,479 Speaker 1: much debate there. That battle seems to be heating up 2020 01:40:04,520 --> 01:40:06,960 Speaker 1: a little bit. One position that's of interest to me, 2021 01:40:07,080 --> 01:40:09,160 Speaker 1: Eddie is that of the linebackers, because we haven't really 2022 01:40:09,200 --> 01:40:11,599 Speaker 1: heard much about linebackers at all, and in this defense 2023 01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:13,720 Speaker 1: with lou Anarumo, and I know that it is a 2024 01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 1: defense that is very reliant on aggression and a lot 2025 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:19,960 Speaker 1: of different looks from the defensive backfield situation and you're 2026 01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:23,120 Speaker 1: in getting after it with your front foor but presenting 2027 01:40:23,160 --> 01:40:26,640 Speaker 1: different looks. And you know, we know Zire Franklin is 2028 01:40:27,479 --> 01:40:30,040 Speaker 1: a guy that stockpiled a bunch of stats for them 2029 01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:31,680 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. But we have not 2030 01:40:31,880 --> 01:40:36,120 Speaker 1: heard a lot about elsewhere, just the overall standout or 2031 01:40:36,200 --> 01:40:39,559 Speaker 1: lack thereof at other positions from the linebacking corps. 2032 01:40:39,560 --> 01:40:41,760 Speaker 2: You know where what other position group? We haven't heard 2033 01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:48,439 Speaker 2: anything from either kicker, Well, no, that's a battle defensive end. 2034 01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:50,840 Speaker 2: I haven't heard anything about you know, layout to a 2035 01:40:50,880 --> 01:40:53,760 Speaker 2: Latsu quitty pay or good good point Sampson Abacoman pressing 2036 01:40:53,800 --> 01:40:54,000 Speaker 2: it all. 2037 01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:56,280 Speaker 1: That doesn't it kind of feel though, like that's one 2038 01:40:56,600 --> 01:41:02,360 Speaker 1: that you. We probably haven't heard as much about that 2039 01:41:02,400 --> 01:41:04,680 Speaker 1: one because you feel the most confident there. I think, 2040 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:07,000 Speaker 1: quitt he pay, quit he pay? 2041 01:41:07,040 --> 01:41:07,360 Speaker 3: To me. 2042 01:41:09,680 --> 01:41:12,120 Speaker 1: The Alex Smith rule. If you're a regular listener of 2043 01:41:12,160 --> 01:41:15,600 Speaker 1: this program, first my apologies and secondly. 2044 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:15,920 Speaker 2: We welcome you. 2045 01:41:16,200 --> 01:41:20,040 Speaker 1: That's right, we thank you. But you've heard me mention 2046 01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:24,240 Speaker 1: a lot the Alex Smith rule. And that's the example 2047 01:41:24,280 --> 01:41:28,720 Speaker 1: I always give. You know, Alex Smith, when he was 2048 01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:31,080 Speaker 1: drafted as the number one overall pick in the draft 2049 01:41:32,080 --> 01:41:37,320 Speaker 1: and was drafted by San Francisco, underachieved in San Francisco 2050 01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:39,840 Speaker 1: based on what you would expect from a number one 2051 01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:42,360 Speaker 1: overall pick, and then he gets a new lease on 2052 01:41:42,479 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 1: life both in Kansas City and Washington and turned into 2053 01:41:45,439 --> 01:41:49,120 Speaker 1: a really good player. And for those two franchises he 2054 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:51,360 Speaker 1: was a really good player and a really good value 2055 01:41:51,400 --> 01:41:53,920 Speaker 1: because they did not put the investment into him that 2056 01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:58,000 Speaker 1: San Francisco had. So you are judged sometimes based on 2057 01:41:58,240 --> 01:42:02,200 Speaker 1: where and how you are acquired and quity pay because 2058 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,920 Speaker 1: he was a first round pick. And I can't remember 2059 01:42:04,920 --> 01:42:07,799 Speaker 1: actually now that I say that, I always get this confused. 2060 01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:10,320 Speaker 1: I know, Alec Pierce, this is the case. Was quit 2061 01:42:10,360 --> 01:42:11,960 Speaker 1: he pay a first round pick, or was he the 2062 01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:13,640 Speaker 1: first pick that they took in a year where they 2063 01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:14,639 Speaker 1: didn't have a first rounder? 2064 01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:16,200 Speaker 2: He was a first round. 2065 01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:23,160 Speaker 1: Okay, He's been a solid player, not great, and when 2066 01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:25,400 Speaker 1: you look at first round picks, you expect him to 2067 01:42:25,439 --> 01:42:29,880 Speaker 1: be great certain positions. When you take a guy in 2068 01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:32,240 Speaker 1: the first round, you assume you never hear their name 2069 01:42:33,920 --> 01:42:36,719 Speaker 1: if you're going to draft, and I think Ryan Kelly 2070 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:38,880 Speaker 1: is another one. Might not have been a first rounder, 2071 01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:40,760 Speaker 1: but was the first pick taken in a year where 2072 01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:42,679 Speaker 1: they didn't have a first round. I could be wrong 2073 01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:45,519 Speaker 1: in that as well, but Ryan Kelly at the very least, 2074 01:42:45,560 --> 01:42:48,760 Speaker 1: like you know, late twenties, whatever it was when you 2075 01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:52,920 Speaker 1: drafted Ryan Kelly. The center position is one that's kind 2076 01:42:52,920 --> 01:42:55,040 Speaker 1: of a thankless position. But if you don't hear the 2077 01:42:55,040 --> 01:42:57,240 Speaker 1: guy's name a lot, it means he's pretty darn good. 2078 01:42:57,800 --> 01:42:59,639 Speaker 1: I mean, Jeff Saturday was a little bit different because 2079 01:42:59,640 --> 01:43:02,640 Speaker 1: he was a color personality and Ryan Kelly was a 2080 01:43:02,760 --> 01:43:07,160 Speaker 1: very mature spokesperson for that franchise and that team. But 2081 01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:09,439 Speaker 1: in terms of his play, you know, you don't analyze 2082 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:11,559 Speaker 1: it a lot because it's just solid and consistent and 2083 01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:14,360 Speaker 1: you know what you're getting. And I think that there 2084 01:43:14,479 --> 01:43:18,720 Speaker 1: was with Quitty Pay. The defensive end position is one 2085 01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:23,920 Speaker 1: that solid play equates into headline or big name stuff, 2086 01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:28,640 Speaker 1: and he hasn't been that, but he's been solid. The 2087 01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:31,120 Speaker 1: Forest Buckner is you know, you hear his name a 2088 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:36,960 Speaker 1: lot because he is in an upper echelon. Guy Pay 2089 01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:40,160 Speaker 1: is an interesting one because is he he is one 2090 01:43:40,280 --> 01:43:43,680 Speaker 1: that could go elsewhere and have if he had the 2091 01:43:43,720 --> 01:43:46,000 Speaker 1: exact same numbers he has right now, then people would 2092 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:47,559 Speaker 1: probably say if they signed him as a free agent 2093 01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:49,360 Speaker 1: or something, They're like, yeah, he's been good. He's a 2094 01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:53,160 Speaker 1: good player. But you feel a little disappointed by it 2095 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:57,400 Speaker 1: because you anticipated and we are so in this market 2096 01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:02,640 Speaker 1: and in this media standpoint and from the fan base standpoint, 2097 01:44:04,680 --> 01:44:06,960 Speaker 1: we are spoiled because and I know one of them 2098 01:44:07,080 --> 01:44:09,760 Speaker 1: was a late round pick, but we're spoiled because we 2099 01:44:09,960 --> 01:44:15,280 Speaker 1: just assumed that having to bookend pass rushers that collapse 2100 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:18,280 Speaker 1: in from either side was the norm, because it became 2101 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:20,880 Speaker 1: the norm to us. And when you've got Freenie and 2102 01:44:20,880 --> 01:44:23,799 Speaker 1: mathis on either side, I mean two heat seeking missiles. 2103 01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:29,720 Speaker 1: You know that became the norm. And then it's like 2104 01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:34,960 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. You've been chasing it ever since. But 2105 01:44:35,080 --> 01:44:35,840 Speaker 1: those are the things. 2106 01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:36,280 Speaker 5: You know. 2107 01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:38,240 Speaker 1: We haven't talked a lot, Eddie, to be honest with 2108 01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:41,439 Speaker 1: you about the kicker position, but that's one that do 2109 01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:47,680 Speaker 1: but kickers in the NFL are kickers to a franchise. 2110 01:44:48,920 --> 01:44:52,479 Speaker 1: There are not many areas where fantasy football is real football. 2111 01:44:52,520 --> 01:44:56,120 Speaker 1: That's why it's called fantasy football. But having said that, 2112 01:44:57,320 --> 01:44:59,240 Speaker 1: in fantasy football, do you play fantasy football? 2113 01:44:59,320 --> 01:44:59,479 Speaker 7: Eddie? 2114 01:44:59,520 --> 01:44:59,640 Speaker 6: Oh? 2115 01:44:59,760 --> 01:45:00,679 Speaker 2: Yes, yes. 2116 01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:02,719 Speaker 1: Are you one of these guys that has like seven teams? 2117 01:45:03,040 --> 01:45:04,240 Speaker 2: I'll have like four or five. 2118 01:45:05,640 --> 01:45:07,040 Speaker 1: You have four or five teams? 2119 01:45:07,360 --> 01:45:10,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, one of them will be the show League like 2120 01:45:10,800 --> 01:45:11,240 Speaker 2: last year. 2121 01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:15,120 Speaker 1: So do you have team names? 2122 01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:16,920 Speaker 2: I haven't drafted yet. 2123 01:45:17,280 --> 01:45:19,200 Speaker 1: No, No, no team. Do you have a name for your teams? 2124 01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:22,080 Speaker 2: I haven't drafted yet. 2125 01:45:22,439 --> 01:45:22,559 Speaker 3: No? 2126 01:45:24,800 --> 01:45:27,560 Speaker 1: Do you have Do you call your team something. 2127 01:45:27,479 --> 01:45:30,280 Speaker 2: I will when I draft? Yeah? I wait to make 2128 01:45:30,280 --> 01:45:32,120 Speaker 2: my team names until I draft because I like to 2129 01:45:33,040 --> 01:45:35,040 Speaker 2: base my team name off of somebody I drafted. 2130 01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:40,519 Speaker 1: Wait, so you're saying that if you were an NFL owner, 2131 01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:43,640 Speaker 1: give me a franchise at the top of your head 2132 01:45:43,720 --> 01:45:46,680 Speaker 1: not named the Colts Cincinnati Bengals. So if you were 2133 01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:49,400 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals, you would petition to change it to 2134 01:45:49,439 --> 01:45:52,880 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Burroughs. No so like for example, or you'd 2135 01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:55,640 Speaker 1: call it like the Chase and one Ninnati Chase. And 2136 01:45:55,680 --> 01:45:58,719 Speaker 1: one league I have Bjon Robinson, So my team name 2137 01:45:58,760 --> 01:46:04,439 Speaker 1: is bet Bath of Pajan. Okay, it's not bad. 2138 01:46:05,160 --> 01:46:08,240 Speaker 2: And then there was one league where I had Elik Neighbors, 2139 01:46:08,240 --> 01:46:14,960 Speaker 2: and I said, neighbors, what's that again? Neighbors touched my pinnix. 2140 01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:23,800 Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, that that seems not only uncomfortable, but like 2141 01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:27,840 Speaker 1: some sort of a bad, you know, special presentation after 2142 01:46:27,880 --> 01:46:32,080 Speaker 1: school special, you know what I mean, Like Conrad Bain 2143 01:46:32,200 --> 01:46:34,240 Speaker 1: is gonna come out beforehand and tell people that it's 2144 01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:37,000 Speaker 1: an uncomfortable subject, but it's an important show to watch. 2145 01:46:37,520 --> 01:46:39,479 Speaker 1: So you wait until you have your roster and then 2146 01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:41,559 Speaker 1: you come up with your team name. Yes, now, okay, 2147 01:46:42,880 --> 01:46:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm very proud of this. The very first fantasy football 2148 01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:50,080 Speaker 1: league I ever did. Okay Gunner from q ninety five 2149 01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:53,240 Speaker 1: years ago. I worked at the cigar store and broad 2150 01:46:53,240 --> 01:46:57,719 Speaker 1: A Bowl. This was nineteen ninety probably five, maybe six. 2151 01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:01,080 Speaker 1: I worked a cigar store in Broaderpool. We had a 2152 01:47:01,200 --> 01:47:04,960 Speaker 1: number of customer great dudes. Paul Oaford was one of 2153 01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:07,719 Speaker 1: the guy's names. Joel Johnson, who was a great dude, 2154 01:47:07,880 --> 01:47:10,320 Speaker 1: was one of them. Mark Barnhardt known as Barney. These 2155 01:47:10,320 --> 01:47:11,920 Speaker 1: guys were in a fantasy league and they would come 2156 01:47:11,960 --> 01:47:13,280 Speaker 1: in the cigar store and they're like, Hey, do you 2157 01:47:13,280 --> 01:47:15,479 Speaker 1: want to play in our fantasy football league? And literally 2158 01:47:15,520 --> 01:47:18,639 Speaker 1: I'm like, what is fantasy football? Well? You would draft guys, 2159 01:47:18,760 --> 01:47:21,240 Speaker 1: I mean, no one. It was the brand that this 2160 01:47:21,400 --> 01:47:25,640 Speaker 1: was dial up internet days. It was so primitive that 2161 01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:29,840 Speaker 1: each week Gunner would print out the results and then 2162 01:47:29,920 --> 01:47:31,920 Speaker 1: walk around to the different places and deliver them. So 2163 01:47:31,960 --> 01:47:34,280 Speaker 1: every Monday, Gunner would come into the cigar store and 2164 01:47:34,360 --> 01:47:37,160 Speaker 1: deliver me my fantasy football results because it took too 2165 01:47:37,200 --> 01:47:38,559 Speaker 1: long to download on the internet. 2166 01:47:38,640 --> 01:47:39,200 Speaker 2: That's awesome. 2167 01:47:39,240 --> 01:47:41,000 Speaker 1: But the one thing, and this was the fun thing 2168 01:47:41,080 --> 01:47:43,960 Speaker 1: about it, the one thing that was the rule of 2169 01:47:44,040 --> 01:47:50,200 Speaker 1: this league was you had to your team had to 2170 01:47:50,200 --> 01:47:55,240 Speaker 1: be named by location for a city that didn't have 2171 01:47:55,280 --> 01:47:58,960 Speaker 1: a pro sports team with a name matching like somehow 2172 01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:01,920 Speaker 1: that went with the city. So the very first year 2173 01:48:01,920 --> 01:48:06,720 Speaker 1: that I did it, I was the Charleston Cavalry. Not bad, right, 2174 01:48:07,160 --> 01:48:09,760 Speaker 1: pretty strong. Second year I did it and I even 2175 01:48:09,760 --> 01:48:11,960 Speaker 1: had a logo made the second year and I was 2176 01:48:12,040 --> 01:48:14,439 Speaker 1: so proud of this the rule was that unless you 2177 01:48:14,479 --> 01:48:16,800 Speaker 1: like finished first year division, you had to completely you 2178 01:48:16,840 --> 01:48:19,559 Speaker 1: had to move your franchise. So year two I was 2179 01:48:19,600 --> 01:48:23,559 Speaker 1: the Baton Rouge Bayonets, and the logo was the B 2180 01:48:23,680 --> 01:48:26,280 Speaker 1: and the R and the two little swivels of the 2181 01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:28,200 Speaker 1: R the two whatever you call it or the R 2182 01:48:28,280 --> 01:48:31,680 Speaker 1: were two cross Bayonets. It was so I mean, it 2183 01:48:31,720 --> 01:48:33,360 Speaker 1: was badass, if you want me to be honest with you, 2184 01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:36,240 Speaker 1: But I didn't have to wait for my roster. But 2185 01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:40,599 Speaker 1: at any rate, when you do a roster in fantasy football, eddie, 2186 01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:45,360 Speaker 1: are you like most people where unless you are getting 2187 01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:49,120 Speaker 1: one of the like say three to four premier kickers, 2188 01:48:50,760 --> 01:48:52,719 Speaker 1: then a lot of times what you do in fantasy 2189 01:48:52,800 --> 01:48:54,960 Speaker 1: league is like you draft your kicker in the eighth 2190 01:48:55,080 --> 01:48:58,559 Speaker 1: or tenth round or whatever, and literally you just hold 2191 01:48:58,600 --> 01:49:00,720 Speaker 1: on to them until they're on a bye wee and 2192 01:49:00,800 --> 01:49:02,280 Speaker 1: you don't even keep them on the bye week. You 2193 01:49:02,360 --> 01:49:04,479 Speaker 1: drop them and you just pick up whatever carre. Yeah, Okay, 2194 01:49:04,520 --> 01:49:06,840 Speaker 1: Miami's kicker is available and take him this week. 2195 01:49:07,160 --> 01:49:08,880 Speaker 2: It depends on you know what type of If you 2196 01:49:08,920 --> 01:49:11,320 Speaker 2: have Brandon Aubrey, like I said, if you've got the 2197 01:49:11,320 --> 01:49:13,519 Speaker 2: top three or five, I get. But I'm with him there. 2198 01:49:13,600 --> 01:49:18,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, So the Colts went last year from a kicker standpoint, 2199 01:49:18,360 --> 01:49:21,800 Speaker 1: the Colts went with the we feel we have a 2200 01:49:21,920 --> 01:49:24,719 Speaker 1: top guy kicker, and they went out and they signed 2201 01:49:24,760 --> 01:49:26,920 Speaker 1: Matt Gay two years ago or whatever it was, and 2202 01:49:26,960 --> 01:49:29,520 Speaker 1: they gave him a huge contract, huge free agency contract. 2203 01:49:29,920 --> 01:49:33,519 Speaker 1: And one of the things about Matt Gay that to 2204 01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:37,800 Speaker 1: me was concerning is the wrong word, but I think 2205 01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:43,719 Speaker 1: had to be considered is simply the fact that Matt 2206 01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:47,439 Speaker 1: Gay there was precedent there. And I mean this with 2207 01:49:47,560 --> 01:49:50,800 Speaker 1: the utmost respect to him, but I mean we had 2208 01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:52,559 Speaker 1: him on the show when he first signed here, and 2209 01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:56,280 Speaker 1: I talked to him about this. Matt Gay had had 2210 01:49:57,400 --> 01:50:02,839 Speaker 1: some challenges in his profession career. There is no position 2211 01:50:02,960 --> 01:50:08,720 Speaker 1: that is more I think like mental than kicking. And 2212 01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:13,519 Speaker 1: he was open about the fact, and I commend him 2213 01:50:13,560 --> 01:50:16,960 Speaker 1: for it. He was open about the fact that he 2214 01:50:17,040 --> 01:50:20,840 Speaker 1: had had challenges from a mental standpoint when it came 2215 01:50:20,880 --> 01:50:23,720 Speaker 1: to kicking earlier in his career. And then once he 2216 01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:26,960 Speaker 1: got over that, he was one of the best kickers 2217 01:50:26,960 --> 01:50:29,120 Speaker 1: in the league, the most accurate. It's why he got 2218 01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:34,600 Speaker 1: a huge contract. But then once he just once he 2219 01:50:34,640 --> 01:50:38,200 Speaker 1: got into kind of a rut again and started missing kicks, 2220 01:50:38,240 --> 01:50:40,120 Speaker 1: and I think there might have been some injury there. 2221 01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:44,679 Speaker 1: But what's interesting is again when Gay was missing kicks 2222 01:50:44,720 --> 01:50:47,919 Speaker 1: and Chris Baler was asked about it, Chris Ballard was adamant, 2223 01:50:48,160 --> 01:50:51,519 Speaker 1: this is not a concern, not a concern. The guy's 2224 01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:53,679 Speaker 1: a good kicker. He just you know, he's working through 2225 01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:55,519 Speaker 1: I think it was a groin or whatever, which I mean, 2226 01:50:55,520 --> 01:51:01,040 Speaker 1: I understand that's pretty severe for a kicker. And obviously 2227 01:51:01,320 --> 01:51:03,600 Speaker 1: the concern was there because they decided to go in 2228 01:51:03,600 --> 01:51:07,160 Speaker 1: another direction. So now that they have an open kicking 2229 01:51:07,200 --> 01:51:10,920 Speaker 1: competition and one of those two is a guy that's 2230 01:51:10,920 --> 01:51:14,040 Speaker 1: been with them for you know, off and on and 2231 01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:17,360 Speaker 1: through camps, you wonder if they're not going with the 2232 01:51:17,439 --> 01:51:21,760 Speaker 1: mentality now or with the you know, Spencer Schrader I 2233 01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:24,599 Speaker 1: think is going to be the guy. But you wonder 2234 01:51:24,640 --> 01:51:26,880 Speaker 1: if they're not kind of going with that fantasy football 2235 01:51:26,920 --> 01:51:28,599 Speaker 1: approach of just like yeah, you know what I mean, 2236 01:51:28,640 --> 01:51:32,559 Speaker 1: like we we have to put our eggs in other baskets. 2237 01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:34,600 Speaker 1: We've got to focus on other positions, and let's just 2238 01:51:34,640 --> 01:51:37,439 Speaker 1: bring in somebody at the kicker position that you know, 2239 01:51:37,439 --> 01:51:38,120 Speaker 1: we're good at that. 2240 01:51:38,080 --> 01:51:40,519 Speaker 2: Point, can you even name the other guy that's in 2241 01:51:40,560 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 2: the kicking competition with Spencer Trader. 2242 01:51:45,360 --> 01:51:47,200 Speaker 1: How many guesses are you gonna give me here, Eddie? 2243 01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:49,000 Speaker 2: I mean as you'd like. 2244 01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:51,800 Speaker 1: Would you like to go? Are we going initials? Or 2245 01:51:51,800 --> 01:51:53,960 Speaker 1: are we just going straight up name? Are we going college? 2246 01:51:54,800 --> 01:51:57,920 Speaker 1: You have me to tell you the college as well, 2247 01:51:58,040 --> 01:51:59,960 Speaker 1: Spencer Strader? Would you agree is the guy? 2248 01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:00,400 Speaker 3: Right? 2249 01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:03,360 Speaker 1: I would assume so, I mean, that's who we assume 2250 01:52:03,479 --> 01:52:07,800 Speaker 1: is going to be the guy. Okay, but I mean 2251 01:52:07,840 --> 01:52:10,800 Speaker 1: you're wanting to know, and you're you're throwing me a 2252 01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:13,400 Speaker 1: curveball here because his last name is very tricky, but 2253 01:52:13,439 --> 01:52:14,360 Speaker 1: I just call him Ma Addox. 2254 01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:16,439 Speaker 2: Okay, is it. 2255 01:52:18,880 --> 01:52:20,719 Speaker 1: Trulio?

It is very fun. If you've not been 2285 01:53:39,439 --> 01:53:43,960 Speaker 1: to Grand Park, it's an amazing facility and the Colts, 2286 01:53:44,080 --> 01:53:46,840 Speaker 1: of course, their training camp is right there.

But at night in particular, 2295 01:54:08,320 --> 01:54:10,599 Speaker 1: I'm curious of this, and people, let me know if 2296 01:54:10,640 --> 01:54:11,200 Speaker 1: you notice it. 2297 01:54:11,360 --> 01:54:13,200 Speaker 2: Proud of you for not making some joke there about 2298 01:54:13,240 --> 01:54:17,719 Speaker 2: ad Mental just catching a pass.

When people arrive and they're walking 2302 01:54:24,120 --> 01:54:27,920 Speaker 1: into Grand Park, it is fascinating because you can tell 2303 01:54:28,000 --> 01:54:30,719 Speaker 1: this is an area that was literally farmland like fifteen 2304 01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:34,160 Speaker 1: years ago, and there's one and I'm always proud of 2305 01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:36,280 Speaker 1: the holdout. I'm always proud of the holdout. Like when 2306 01:54:36,280 --> 01:54:38,400 Speaker 1: you go to you know, you're in some suburban area 2307 01:54:38,400 --> 01:54:39,680 Speaker 1: and there's a strip mall and then you see one 2308 01:54:39,720 --> 01:54:42,280 Speaker 1: little ranch house that's just surrounded by a bed bathroom 2309 01:54:42,320 --> 01:54:46,080 Speaker 1: beyond or bed bathroom bijan if Eddie owns it, and 2310 01:54:46,320 --> 01:54:49,240 Speaker 1: a Chucky cheese and then oddly a hustler store all 2311 01:54:49,320 --> 01:54:50,920 Speaker 1: right there, and then there's one ranch house and you're like, 2312 01:54:50,960 --> 01:54:52,880 Speaker 1: you know what that guy did not sell out. Good 2313 01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:55,800 Speaker 1: for him, he stood his ground. There's somebody there in 2314 01:54:55,800 --> 01:54:58,040 Speaker 1: Grand Park and they've got a rooster and the rooster 2315 01:54:58,080 --> 01:54:59,680 Speaker 1: when I would do the morning show and we'd show 2316 01:54:59,760 --> 01:55:02,320 Speaker 1: up the rooster, b what do you call crowing?

So, and he's he's getting after 2321 01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:13,520 Speaker 1: it in the morning, letting everybody know he's awake. And 2322 01:55:13,560 --> 01:55:15,320 Speaker 1: then I noticed the other day when I was leaving. 2323 01:55:15,440 --> 01:55:17,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's if his body's on specific 2324 01:55:17,280 --> 01:55:19,280 Speaker 1: time or what, but he was doing it again. And 2325 01:55:19,320 --> 01:55:20,880 Speaker 1: so I'm curious if he's doing it at night or 2326 01:55:20,880 --> 01:55:22,000 Speaker 1: does a rooster sleep at night. 2327 01:55:22,040 --> 01:55:24,000 Speaker 2: I'm also curious if there's gonna be enough parking.

Oh yeah. 2342 01:55:54,840 --> 01:55:58,280 Speaker 1: Grand Park by the way on the boundary of the 2343 01:55:58,280 --> 01:56:03,200 Speaker 1: former three J Thunder Island, which is now Finally they 2344 01:56:03,200 --> 01:56:04,960 Speaker 1: took it down and my buddy Greg Bell and I 2345 01:56:04,960 --> 01:56:06,560 Speaker 1: went through and found the remnants of it like three 2346 01:56:06,600 --> 01:56:08,360 Speaker 1: years ago, and it was eerie seeing where the water 2347 01:56:08,400 --> 01:56:10,520 Speaker 1: slides were in the go kart track. But now they're 2348 01:56:10,560 --> 01:56:13,040 Speaker 1: talking about building another water park up near there, and 2349 01:56:13,080 --> 01:56:14,960 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, well, why did you tear down the one before? 2350 01:56:16,240 --> 01:56:18,200 Speaker 1: It was great, it was fabulous, but I guess you 2351 01:56:18,240 --> 01:56:20,200 Speaker 1: had to build Grand Park. Did you ever hit a 2352 01:56:20,200 --> 01:56:23,280 Speaker 1: home run there? How many career home runs did you 2353 01:56:23,360 --> 01:56:25,440 Speaker 1: have in high school?

The dimensions are almost identical to Victory Field. 2360 01:56:40,160 --> 01:56:46,880 Speaker 1: Really, so what what school has the shortest like it 2361 01:56:46,880 --> 01:56:48,760 Speaker 1: almost seems like in high school they should have a 2362 01:56:48,880 --> 01:56:52,360 Speaker 1: uniform dimensions, right, I mean, it seems like that would 2363 01:56:52,400 --> 01:56:53,879 Speaker 1: be a fair way of doing Evian. 2364 01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:56,440 Speaker 2: Christian had a beautiful field, but it was like super 2365 01:56:56,520 --> 01:56:59,200 Speaker 2: short to left and right, and it was deep in 2366 01:56:59,240 --> 01:57:03,800 Speaker 2: the alleys left, center, right, center, and center. Martinsville is 2367 01:57:03,840 --> 01:57:06,080 Speaker 2: a short one.

You've got the 2391 01:58:20,320 --> 01:58:24,080 Speaker 1: Fever in the sun. Yeah, imagine that fortune. Yeah, I mean, 2392 01:58:24,480 --> 01:58:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, the mercury in the sun. I mean I 2393 01:58:26,960 --> 01:58:28,600 Speaker 1: never really thought about this until now, but it makes 2394 01:58:28,600 --> 01:58:30,000 Speaker 1: perfect sense because I don't know if you know, there's 2395 01:58:30,000 --> 01:58:32,120 Speaker 1: not Eddie but outside right now, especially with that corn 2396 01:58:32,160 --> 01:58:33,920 Speaker 1: sweat one hundred and sixteen degrees. 2397 01:58:33,880 --> 01:58:36,680 Speaker 2: Tell you what the mercury is up there on the thermometer. 2398 01:58:37,000 --> 01:58:40,160 Speaker 1: It is. But the Fever are hoping that their hot 2399 01:58:40,160 --> 01:58:42,160 Speaker 1: play can continue. They've won two in a row. But 2400 01:58:42,240 --> 01:58:44,440 Speaker 1: there are a lot of question mark, question marks, wrong word, 2401 01:58:44,480 --> 01:58:46,800 Speaker 1: a lot of things to discuss though, because of where 2402 01:58:46,800 --> 01:58:49,840 Speaker 1: they navigate now through. Without Caitlin Clark joining us now 2403 01:58:49,880 --> 01:58:51,840 Speaker 1: on the program, a return guest to the show and 2404 01:58:51,920 --> 01:58:54,560 Speaker 1: always happy to have her. Debbie Antonelli, who you see 2405 01:58:54,600 --> 01:58:57,960 Speaker 1: doing television work, is the analyst for the Fever. Debbie, 2406 01:58:57,960 --> 01:58:58,400 Speaker 1: how are you? 2407 01:58:59,520 --> 01:58:59,880 Speaker 4: What's up? 2408 01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:02,480 Speaker 10: Jake? And Yeah, let's hope that there's a lot of 2409 01:59:02,520 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 10: hot hands in the gym tonight, that their offense is 2410 01:59:05,760 --> 01:59:06,800 Speaker 10: fast and furious. 2411 01:59:07,000 --> 01:59:10,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I want to get to that because and I've 2412 01:59:10,760 --> 01:59:12,880 Speaker 1: talked about this with Stephanie White, but I want your 2413 01:59:12,920 --> 01:59:15,440 Speaker 1: thoughts on it, DeBie, in terms of the way that 2414 01:59:15,480 --> 01:59:17,760 Speaker 1: you watch it and how they're navigating this, and that 2415 01:59:17,960 --> 01:59:20,440 Speaker 1: is there is no denying and we know this that 2416 01:59:20,560 --> 01:59:23,160 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark is the straw that mixes the drink for 2417 01:59:23,200 --> 01:59:26,720 Speaker 1: the fever in a perfect situation. But when you remove that, 2418 01:59:27,080 --> 01:59:31,680 Speaker 1: then you have this kind of balance between sustaining until 2419 01:59:31,720 --> 01:59:34,560 Speaker 1: she returns or if you don't know when that's going 2420 01:59:34,600 --> 01:59:37,600 Speaker 1: to be moving forward without her. And I know that 2421 01:59:37,600 --> 01:59:39,680 Speaker 1: that sounds ridiculous, but I think you get what I'm 2422 01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:43,240 Speaker 1: saying there. Let's begin with the first part. They have 2423 01:59:43,320 --> 01:59:46,880 Speaker 1: been able to play without her because they have utilized 2424 01:59:47,000 --> 01:59:48,360 Speaker 1: or taken advantage of what. 2425 01:59:49,920 --> 01:59:51,520 Speaker 4: Their overall team depth. 2426 01:59:51,840 --> 01:59:55,920 Speaker 10: Right now, Kelsey Mitchell's thirty one minutes a game, Aliah Boston. 2427 01:59:55,560 --> 01:59:58,120 Speaker 4: Thirty minutes a game. Everyone else is less than that. 2428 01:59:58,280 --> 02:00:01,600 Speaker 10: So I thought Stephanie White staff continue to do a 2429 02:00:01,680 --> 02:00:06,360 Speaker 10: great job of balancing out to change in the rhythm 2430 02:00:06,440 --> 02:00:08,280 Speaker 10: of the game and One of the ways you can 2431 02:00:08,320 --> 02:00:09,160 Speaker 10: do that is with the. 2432 02:00:09,120 --> 02:00:10,880 Speaker 4: Depth of the team, the schemes. 2433 02:00:11,480 --> 02:00:14,040 Speaker 10: You can call time out, you can substitute, There's a 2434 02:00:14,080 --> 02:00:15,680 Speaker 10: lot of things you can do to change the rhythm. 2435 02:00:15,680 --> 02:00:17,680 Speaker 10: But I think that they have done a really good 2436 02:00:17,760 --> 02:00:20,000 Speaker 10: job of keeping their depth as a focal point. 2437 02:00:20,280 --> 02:00:23,800 Speaker 1: And then the other question with that Debbie becomes when 2438 02:00:24,000 --> 02:00:26,480 Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark returns, and we can get into the win 2439 02:00:26,640 --> 02:00:30,160 Speaker 1: in a second, but when she does, clearly she is 2440 02:00:30,200 --> 02:00:33,800 Speaker 1: an elite player, But do you have to kind of 2441 02:00:33,920 --> 02:00:38,919 Speaker 1: slowly reacclimate that because of getting used to or finding 2442 02:00:38,960 --> 02:00:41,720 Speaker 1: your way through without her in that lineup. 2443 02:00:43,320 --> 02:00:48,960 Speaker 10: I definitely think there's some acclamation to weeding her back in, 2444 02:00:49,080 --> 02:00:52,440 Speaker 10: if you will, And it seems like such a soft 2445 02:00:52,560 --> 02:00:54,640 Speaker 10: term to use. I mean, obviously, when you've got the 2446 02:00:54,640 --> 02:00:57,400 Speaker 10: elite level skill set, the all star power that Caitlin 2447 02:00:57,480 --> 02:00:58,520 Speaker 10: brings on the floor. 2448 02:00:59,320 --> 02:00:59,920 Speaker 4: When you look at. 2449 02:00:59,880 --> 02:01:02,160 Speaker 10: Her numbers, last year she took fourteen and a half 2450 02:01:02,200 --> 02:01:02,880 Speaker 10: shots a game. 2451 02:01:02,920 --> 02:01:04,400 Speaker 4: This year she's taking fifteen. 2452 02:01:04,840 --> 02:01:06,760 Speaker 10: It's not that big of a difference in terms of 2453 02:01:06,800 --> 02:01:10,240 Speaker 10: the number of shots, but her impact, her influence on pace, 2454 02:01:10,840 --> 02:01:15,400 Speaker 10: on space, and certainly and making everyone else better, which 2455 02:01:15,440 --> 02:01:18,080 Speaker 10: is hard to measure in any sort of statistical category. 2456 02:01:18,480 --> 02:01:21,480 Speaker 10: Those are things that you have to acclimate Caitlin into 2457 02:01:21,520 --> 02:01:23,080 Speaker 10: with the speed and the rhythm of the game. 2458 02:01:23,320 --> 02:01:26,280 Speaker 1: When you look Debbie, and this is going to sound 2459 02:01:26,320 --> 02:01:31,200 Speaker 1: like I'm being critical, I please understand that's not where 2460 02:01:31,200 --> 02:01:33,520 Speaker 1: this is coming from. Okay, But when you look at 2461 02:01:33,520 --> 02:01:36,040 Speaker 1: for example, you know Kelsey Mitchell, who has played really 2462 02:01:36,080 --> 02:01:38,440 Speaker 1: well in the absence, and you talk about the fact 2463 02:01:38,480 --> 02:01:40,960 Speaker 1: that Aliah Buston becomes a little more focal in terms 2464 02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:42,720 Speaker 1: of their offense, and we know how gifted she can 2465 02:01:42,760 --> 02:01:45,880 Speaker 1: be on the low post, but is winning that way 2466 02:01:46,000 --> 02:01:48,880 Speaker 1: and playing that way without her sustainable. 2467 02:01:50,600 --> 02:01:52,880 Speaker 10: I don't think that you, in the back of your 2468 02:01:52,880 --> 02:01:54,800 Speaker 10: mind believe that you're going to be at your best 2469 02:01:54,880 --> 02:01:58,640 Speaker 10: until you have Caitlin one hundred percent. So having said that, 2470 02:01:58,760 --> 02:02:00,920 Speaker 10: I think the player have to take it to the 2471 02:02:00,960 --> 02:02:01,480 Speaker 10: next level. 2472 02:02:01,480 --> 02:02:02,680 Speaker 4: And everyone has done that. 2473 02:02:03,080 --> 02:02:05,760 Speaker 10: Now, does Aliah Boston get the same number of field 2474 02:02:05,800 --> 02:02:08,120 Speaker 10: goal attempts without Caitlin or does she catch the ball 2475 02:02:08,120 --> 02:02:11,120 Speaker 10: in the same quality of shot area that she's really 2476 02:02:11,120 --> 02:02:11,400 Speaker 10: good in. 2477 02:02:11,600 --> 02:02:13,120 Speaker 4: No, I would say that doesn't happen. 2478 02:02:13,160 --> 02:02:16,120 Speaker 10: But part of that is because of what Indiana runs 2479 02:02:16,160 --> 02:02:19,000 Speaker 10: and the offense that they run and Kelsey Mitchell is 2480 02:02:19,040 --> 02:02:20,760 Speaker 10: on fire. But she was on fire at this point 2481 02:02:20,840 --> 02:02:22,600 Speaker 10: last year. When you look at her numbers from last 2482 02:02:22,640 --> 02:02:26,400 Speaker 10: year to this year, she is sustaining that elite level play. 2483 02:02:26,960 --> 02:02:30,280 Speaker 10: I actually watched her today go through a shooting workout today, Jake. 2484 02:02:30,360 --> 02:02:32,800 Speaker 10: I mean, look, this is the morning of the game, 2485 02:02:32,840 --> 02:02:36,560 Speaker 10: and I'm watching Kelsey go through the different spots and 2486 02:02:36,680 --> 02:02:39,320 Speaker 10: shots that she's going to get on the floor, working 2487 02:02:39,360 --> 02:02:42,480 Speaker 10: on her footwork, working on her cuts and her different 2488 02:02:42,520 --> 02:02:46,520 Speaker 10: movements without the ball. Look, she sustains a high level 2489 02:02:46,520 --> 02:02:48,560 Speaker 10: of excellence. It's not a surprise to any of us 2490 02:02:48,560 --> 02:02:50,480 Speaker 10: that have been watching Kelsey for a long time what 2491 02:02:50,560 --> 02:02:53,120 Speaker 10: she's capable of doing. I thought she put up those 2492 02:02:53,120 --> 02:02:56,000 Speaker 10: same numbers on the floor with Caitlin. I think she's 2493 02:02:56,320 --> 02:02:58,240 Speaker 10: getting a chance to get a few more shots per 2494 02:02:58,280 --> 02:03:00,960 Speaker 10: game without Caitlin. That's a good thing for the Fever 2495 02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:02,640 Speaker 10: because they need her scoring to be able to win. 2496 02:03:03,000 --> 02:03:06,760 Speaker 1: You know, when you talk about Debbie Antonelli is our guest, 2497 02:03:06,760 --> 02:03:10,880 Speaker 1: we're talking about the Indiana Fever. Caitlin Clark in terms 2498 02:03:10,880 --> 02:03:12,600 Speaker 1: of the number of shots that she was taking, and 2499 02:03:12,640 --> 02:03:16,760 Speaker 1: then we saw her shooting percentage really go down, especially 2500 02:03:16,760 --> 02:03:20,120 Speaker 1: from the outside. Do we have enough now that we 2501 02:03:20,160 --> 02:03:22,720 Speaker 1: can say that that is that that was injury related? 2502 02:03:22,720 --> 02:03:26,760 Speaker 10: Do you think I personally think so after watching Caitlin 2503 02:03:26,840 --> 02:03:29,400 Speaker 10: for as many years and knowing as a shooter that 2504 02:03:29,480 --> 02:03:32,600 Speaker 10: she certainly has the ability to self correct and she 2505 02:03:32,760 --> 02:03:34,960 Speaker 10: has the ability to get her muscle. 2506 02:03:34,680 --> 02:03:36,640 Speaker 4: Memory where it needs to be. I've talked about this 2507 02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:38,120 Speaker 4: with you before about shooters. 2508 02:03:38,440 --> 02:03:39,160 Speaker 5: You know, when your. 2509 02:03:39,040 --> 02:03:41,440 Speaker 10: Footwork and your base and your balance isn't what it 2510 02:03:41,480 --> 02:03:43,640 Speaker 10: needs to be. Just think about let your back hurts 2511 02:03:43,680 --> 02:03:46,040 Speaker 10: a little bit, or when your knee aches and you 2512 02:03:46,080 --> 02:03:48,480 Speaker 10: can't do the things that you typically do as a 2513 02:03:48,520 --> 02:03:49,320 Speaker 10: regular person. 2514 02:03:49,360 --> 02:03:51,360 Speaker 4: And then you compound that with. 2515 02:03:51,800 --> 02:03:54,600 Speaker 10: The types of injuries that she's had and how that 2516 02:03:54,640 --> 02:03:57,720 Speaker 10: affects her ability to navigate space on the floor. Maybe 2517 02:03:57,720 --> 02:04:00,320 Speaker 10: her step back isn't as far back as it's then 2518 02:04:00,360 --> 02:04:02,320 Speaker 10: maybe it's off by a little bit of a rhythm. 2519 02:04:02,600 --> 02:04:06,000 Speaker 10: There's certain things that shooters know about, you know, the 2520 02:04:06,040 --> 02:04:08,440 Speaker 10: bottom part of their shot versus the top part of 2521 02:04:08,440 --> 02:04:10,880 Speaker 10: their shot, because there's two different things there. Right the 2522 02:04:10,920 --> 02:04:14,280 Speaker 10: bottom your footwork, your load to high, your load. 2523 02:04:14,520 --> 02:04:15,760 Speaker 4: Where you catch the ball. 2524 02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:18,360 Speaker 10: Then the top part where your hands are do you 2525 02:04:18,400 --> 02:04:20,280 Speaker 10: have to drop your hands on a pass or your 2526 02:04:20,280 --> 02:04:22,800 Speaker 10: hands up, but where's her follow through? There's so many 2527 02:04:22,880 --> 02:04:25,920 Speaker 10: technical things that I don't worry about that stuff With Caitlin. 2528 02:04:26,320 --> 02:04:29,160 Speaker 10: I clearly think that injury has played a role in 2529 02:04:29,200 --> 02:04:31,640 Speaker 10: her not being able to shoot the ball as efficiently 2530 02:04:31,680 --> 02:04:33,960 Speaker 10: as she's done it in the past. But then we're 2531 02:04:33,960 --> 02:04:36,440 Speaker 10: at twenty six games, Jake, and she's played thirteen and 2532 02:04:36,480 --> 02:04:39,040 Speaker 10: she's missed thirteen. It's been in and out all year, 2533 02:04:39,160 --> 02:04:41,560 Speaker 10: so she personally has not been able to get in 2534 02:04:41,640 --> 02:04:42,400 Speaker 10: much of a rhythm. 2535 02:04:42,760 --> 02:04:45,240 Speaker 1: Debbie when we talked, I talked to yesterday to Stephanie 2536 02:04:45,280 --> 02:04:49,920 Speaker 1: White about just the overall evolution of the WNBA and 2537 02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:54,160 Speaker 1: the number of different styles that coach White has to 2538 02:04:54,200 --> 02:04:56,880 Speaker 1: prepare for versus say, if you were coming up with 2539 02:04:56,880 --> 02:04:59,960 Speaker 1: game planning twenty years ago. Because the game has evolved, 2540 02:05:00,120 --> 02:05:03,200 Speaker 1: but it also the women's game has evolved. Has that 2541 02:05:03,320 --> 02:05:07,160 Speaker 1: trickled down to you now that we have an entire 2542 02:05:07,680 --> 02:05:10,640 Speaker 1: and I think it's easy to forget this. We have 2543 02:05:10,760 --> 02:05:13,960 Speaker 1: now college basketball players who have never known different than 2544 02:05:14,040 --> 02:05:18,640 Speaker 1: seeing women playing at the professional level. And to be 2545 02:05:18,800 --> 02:05:22,120 Speaker 1: someone sometimes you have to see someone. And if you 2546 02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:25,240 Speaker 1: look back at your playing career at NC State and 2547 02:05:25,280 --> 02:05:28,880 Speaker 1: you look at the style of college play today. Are 2548 02:05:28,920 --> 02:05:33,560 Speaker 1: we seeing now the overall level and versatility of the 2549 02:05:33,600 --> 02:05:37,520 Speaker 1: game at the college level being benefit from an entire 2550 02:05:37,640 --> 02:05:40,120 Speaker 1: generation of seeing that example before them. 2551 02:05:41,320 --> 02:05:42,640 Speaker 4: I don't think there's any question. 2552 02:05:42,720 --> 02:05:45,520 Speaker 10: And that is a beautiful thing and a wonderful statement 2553 02:05:45,640 --> 02:05:49,320 Speaker 10: that we have incredible skill set at the elite level 2554 02:05:49,360 --> 02:05:52,480 Speaker 10: with the best players in the world showcasing that on 2555 02:05:52,560 --> 02:05:56,400 Speaker 10: a platform that everyone can consume. And you're watching all 2556 02:05:56,440 --> 02:05:58,960 Speaker 10: these little young girls come up that are learning how 2557 02:05:58,960 --> 02:06:02,080 Speaker 10: to play the game because emulating what a Caitlin Clark 2558 02:06:02,200 --> 02:06:04,640 Speaker 10: might do, or what in the Leeah Boston or Kelsey 2559 02:06:04,680 --> 02:06:05,440 Speaker 10: Mitchell might do. 2560 02:06:05,800 --> 02:06:07,160 Speaker 4: I think that's a wonderful thing. 2561 02:06:07,480 --> 02:06:09,720 Speaker 10: And yes, back in the day, we didn't run any 2562 02:06:09,720 --> 02:06:12,480 Speaker 10: ball screens. We ran everything off the ball. And now 2563 02:06:12,880 --> 02:06:15,840 Speaker 10: you do see a trickle down from what comes internationally 2564 02:06:16,040 --> 02:06:18,200 Speaker 10: or NBA internationally. 2565 02:06:18,160 --> 02:06:19,160 Speaker 4: Into the women's game. 2566 02:06:19,200 --> 02:06:21,520 Speaker 10: And you know what we have as a hidden jewel 2567 02:06:21,600 --> 02:06:25,080 Speaker 10: or gem on our staff in Lynn Dunn. There are 2568 02:06:25,120 --> 02:06:27,680 Speaker 10: a lot of intricacies that Lynn Dunn has brought to 2569 02:06:27,760 --> 02:06:30,640 Speaker 10: the game that we have all learned from. She brought 2570 02:06:30,680 --> 02:06:34,480 Speaker 10: horns from the NBA into the WNBA. She inverted on 2571 02:06:34,560 --> 02:06:37,640 Speaker 10: out of bounce plays defensively, which is something that no 2572 02:06:37,640 --> 02:06:40,200 Speaker 10: one was doing. So yes, I do think that there 2573 02:06:40,280 --> 02:06:42,560 Speaker 10: is a pass through and I do think it is 2574 02:06:42,640 --> 02:06:45,120 Speaker 10: passing through and that is part of the reason why 2575 02:06:45,160 --> 02:06:47,320 Speaker 10: our game is at such a good level right now 2576 02:06:47,320 --> 02:06:50,240 Speaker 10: and the product is so good. That's why the young players, 2577 02:06:50,280 --> 02:06:53,320 Speaker 10: the rookie class can come in and have an immediate impact. 2578 02:06:54,000 --> 02:06:56,560 Speaker 10: It's fun to watch, it's exciting, and it's really good 2579 02:06:56,560 --> 02:06:57,960 Speaker 10: for the future growth of the league. 2580 02:06:58,120 --> 02:07:00,680 Speaker 1: I'd like to take a road trip with Linda. I'd 2581 02:07:00,720 --> 02:07:02,879 Speaker 1: like from here, just drive like from here to Wyoming 2582 02:07:02,880 --> 02:07:05,760 Speaker 1: with Lynn Dunn.

If you're a parent and 2634 02:09:42,560 --> 02:09:45,240 Speaker 10: you have a kid, and you haven't talked about tolerating 2635 02:09:45,320 --> 02:09:49,320 Speaker 10: differences and showing empathy and working on your emotional like 2636 02:09:49,400 --> 02:09:52,400 Speaker 10: you even as a young person, these are things that 2637 02:09:52,560 --> 02:09:54,520 Speaker 10: as you grow, you're going to be a part of 2638 02:09:54,600 --> 02:09:58,160 Speaker 10: society that is ever changing with people that are different. 2639 02:09:58,640 --> 02:10:02,560 Speaker 10: Everyone has something Everyone has something different if you just 2640 02:10:02,640 --> 02:10:05,840 Speaker 10: take the time. There's two cliches that I often quote 2641 02:10:05,840 --> 02:10:07,880 Speaker 10: that I do not like. Do not judge a book 2642 02:10:07,880 --> 02:10:10,240 Speaker 10: by its cover.

And how can you help everyone around you. 2650 02:10:27,520 --> 02:10:30,920 Speaker 4: Be happy, healthy and involved. That's the way we've raised 2651 02:10:30,920 --> 02:10:33,600 Speaker 4: our three boys. Those are the three most important things. 2652 02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:36,000 Speaker 10: That we talked about all the time. And making good 2653 02:10:36,080 --> 02:10:38,240 Speaker 10: choices and making a good choice would be making a 2654 02:10:38,280 --> 02:10:38,720 Speaker 10: new friend. 2655 02:10:39,040 --> 02:10:41,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to say, sometimes as simple as hey, 2656 02:10:41,280 --> 02:10:43,280 Speaker 1: you want to sit with us at lunch today, That 2657 02:10:43,320 --> 02:10:46,560 Speaker 1: can go a long long way, right it can? 2658 02:10:46,720 --> 02:10:48,760 Speaker 10: And then if you can follow up with it, because 2659 02:10:48,760 --> 02:10:51,880 Speaker 10: it's just like any other networking opportunity, if you spin 2660 02:10:51,960 --> 02:10:54,800 Speaker 10: it back, you know, we're all trying to network to 2661 02:10:54,920 --> 02:10:56,480 Speaker 10: advance whatever we want to do. 2662 02:10:56,600 --> 02:10:58,920 Speaker 4: So you meet new people so that you can. 2663 02:10:58,760 --> 02:11:01,720 Speaker 10: Build a bigger circle.
