1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: It's a big one today. For some, it is a

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: day that dreams are solidified and made. For others, it

3
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: is a day where you just hope that you don't

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: get a knock on the door and that the coach

5
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: isn't requesting a playbook. It is roster official day, if

6
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: you will, four o'clock today, correct, Eddie Garrison.

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: Yep, that's accurate, Jake.

8
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: Four o'clock today is when the Indianapolis Colts and the

9
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: other teams of the National Football League must make their

10
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: fifty three man roster official. Get the decisions. And there

11
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: are already some names that are being leaked out there,

12
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: if you will, or being announced as those who have

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: not made the roster for the twenty twenty five Indianapolis Colts.

14
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 1: And there are a couple actually that are of some surprise.

15
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: We will get to that in just a moment, but

16
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: let's start by saying good afternoon to you and thank

17
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: you for listening to Quarry Company. My name is Jake

18
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: Quary Eddie Garrison, the other voice that you just heard

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: on this program, and I want to thank right off

20
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: the top, not just Chicago's Pizza down in Greenwood for

21
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: hosting us yesterday, for our Quarry and Company Fantasy football draft,

22
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: but also those who showed up, and it was fun.

23
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: It was great to meet everybody and shoot the ball.

24
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: And some took longer than others to make their selection,

25
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: but for the most part, really a pretty quick draft

26
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: and fabulous pizza to be had. And the one thing,

27
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: Eddie that I will say yesterday in doing that and

28
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: this is something for which I am most appreciative and grateful,

29
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: and that is we just got a lot of good

30
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: dudes that listen to this radio show. Yes you know

31
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: what I mean, Yes, you know. Everybody got along and

32
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: cracked a couple jokes, and you know, for the most

33
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: part it is pretty quiet. Though it was I was like,

34
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: this is like a legitimate war room. Everybody was hunkered

35
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: down over their laptop, their phone or whatever else making

36
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: their picks. Yeah.

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 2: I can't remember who it was, but somebody walked in

38
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: and they're like, you know, I thought this would have

39
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 2: been a much louder Bauck Jarry.

40
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: It was Brian that came in. Brian was a great

41
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: guy and really enjoyed talking to him. Talked to him

42
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: for a while in the parking lot afterwards, and enjoyed

43
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: that and really everybody you know sitting there. Derek was great. Derek,

44
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: who is a North Central Panther, was there. Casey is there,

45
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: the pride of Martinsville. It was great, just just shooting

46
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: the bowl with everybody and getting the selections made. So

47
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: thank you for all who came out for that. And

48
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: we will certainly keep everybody up to speed on what

49
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: happens with our fantasy league over the course of the year.

50
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: But let's get right to it, Eddie, if you happen

51
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: to have the breaking news sounder, we will get to it.

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: This through the combination of essentially Joel A. Erickson as

53
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: well as James Boyd. They are the first two that

54
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: have report to most of these these players apparently have

55
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: not made the roster for the Colts this year. All

56
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: of this within the last couple of hours. Wesley French.

57
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 1: That's a bit of a surprise to me because what

58
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: do I say, cell phones, cell phone chargers, and sunglasses.

59
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: That's offensive line in defensive backs, you can never have

60
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 1: too many. And Wesley French is a guy that I

61
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: think can play kind of a variety of areas on

62
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: the offensive line for the Colts. And it looks like

63
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: Wesley French not going to be on the roster. He

64
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,839
Speaker 1: also has had injury issue. Don't get me wrong during

65
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: the time as a cult, but he is one that

66
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: did not make the roster. Coleman, Owen, Trey Washington, Austin

67
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: and Jakie the linebacker. Linebacker is an interesting one, especially

68
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: in lou An Arumo's defense, because it feels like it

69
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: has become devalued. Position is maybe the wrong way of

70
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: saying it, but simply a position that is more fungible

71
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: perhaps than it used to be. It looks like Jalen

72
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: Carlys could go to IR with the opportunity to return.

73
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: And then I think the big one so far, and

74
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: that's the fact that Jeelanni Woods the tight end. We

75
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: kind of knew this was going to be the case,

76
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: but it looks like in a very crowded and to

77
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: some extent parallel among player to an extent of what

78
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: they bring to the table, looks like the odd man

79
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: out is going to be Jelanni Woods for the tight ends.

80
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: He is not going to make the roster. It would

81
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: appear now question also becomes Eddie and we had talked

82
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: about it, for example Riley Leonard and maybe I'm making

83
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: too much of this, because I don't think Riley Leonard

84
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: is a guy that they are intending to have take

85
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: a single snap this year. But if Riley Leonard showed

86
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: enough that the Colts simply want to get a better

87
00:04:54,800 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: look for future purposes, just in an a depth roll.

88
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: If that's the case with Riley Leonard, then they that

89
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: could come at the expense of a roster spot elsewhere.

90
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: And it is perhaps the case, maybe not with Jelanni Woods,

91
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: but say Wesley French, you know, is that a position

92
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: where it looked like he was going to make the

93
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: roster and then they're like, you know what we've we

94
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: want to make sure that we are protecting, say at

95
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: the quarterback spot three deep, so we need a roster

96
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: spot somewhere, and then boom, that becomes expendable. I'm using

97
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: simply the quarterback as an example there. But you get

98
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, right, m h, I get what you're saying.

99
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, And uh, I don't know, like, are we wasting

100
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 2: our time talking about and Jake, that's the biggest question

101
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: I have, Like I understand that some fans out there like, hey,

102
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: this guy should have, you know, a chance of being

103
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: the QB two behind Anthony Richardson. But you also also

104
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 2: have to keep in mind this, Jake. The Colts felt

105
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,919
Speaker 2: the need to rest Richardson in that final preseason game

106
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: so that either he didn't get hurt because he's valuable

107
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: to them at some point during the regular season, or

108
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 2: just because of the fact that I didn't want him

109
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 2: to get hurt in rely on Sam Ellinger being your

110
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: backup quarterback.

111
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: You mean Riley Leonard, That's what I meant. Yes, sorry,

112
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: or let me throw the option three. The Colts have

113
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: relegated themselves to the fact that there's nothing else to

114
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: see out of Anthony Richardson because they know what he is.

115
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: Maybe and I again, I'm going to go with this

116
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: not to be contrarian to your to your point, because

117
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying you're wrong. I mean, we don't know,

118
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: but I do believe this, and I will. Younger me

119
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: would would not have said this, because I would have

120
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: been like or rather would not have admitted when I

121
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: was wrong. I'm going to make a statement and I

122
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: will gladly admit if I am wrong in this, because

123
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I want to be right and I have.

124
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 1: I want to make very clear here I have nothing

125
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: but tea leaves. I have nothing to base this on

126
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: but phone calls and foot lockers. But I and I'm

127
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: sure as I am as sure as the fact that

128
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: today is Tuesday. I am sure as about this as

129
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: I am the fact that it is a beautiful day outside.

130
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: I'm as sure of this as I am about the

131
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: fact that everybody enjoyed the Chicago's pizza last night. I

132
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: am sure of the fact that the Colts have come

133
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: to the conclusion that Anthony Richardson is what he is.

134
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: I think they are past the point of waiting. If

135
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: they thought there was something there to be a long

136
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: term quarterback for them, he would be on the field.

137
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: There is you could go from. If Anthony Richardson you

138
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: put him out there because you still feel that there

139
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: is untapped potential and he doesn't play well, you can

140
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: go to Daniel Jones at that point, and Daniel Jones

141
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: can still get you what you're going to get out

142
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: of him, because he's been around, he's been a starter,

143
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: he's been a backup, all of it. Richardson because of

144
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: where and how you acquired him as a top five pick,

145
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: and I know that he's young. I get all of that,

146
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: I totally get it. But if they thought there was

147
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: a glimmer of something that could be had out of him,

148
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: he would be on the field. Because I don't know

149
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: how you go to Richardson now in any way other

150
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: than he is strictly the backup to keep the seat

151
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 1: warm until Daniel Jones is again available. Now I say that,

152
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: and I understand things change if Daniel Jones goes out

153
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: and in week three suffers a knee injury where he's

154
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: going to be out five weeks, and then Richardson comes

155
00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 1: in and suddenly becomes, you know, the guy that they

156
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: thought he was going to be. That changes things. I

157
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: get that, But I truly think that at this point

158
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: the Colts have resigned themselves into believing that that player

159
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: is not there and that they can't get it out

160
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: of him. No one has told me that. I hope

161
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm wrong. I just don't know how you can conclude

162
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: when you look at this anything other than that. And

163
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: I go back to this point, which I've made before,

164
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: but I'll make it again. Realistically, at the time that

165
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson was selected, and at the time that Anthony

166
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: Richardson became a starter as a rookie. The person who

167
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 1: was making every last final decision where the Bucks stopped

168
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: was with the late Great Jim Ersay. In the time

169
00:09:54,840 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: that Jimmersay has been the highest rung total voice of

170
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: authority within the Colts organization. They have had two previous

171
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: players that were selected as quarterbacks within the top four

172
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: picks that they handed the keys to, and it's Peyton

173
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: Manning and Andrew Luck. And Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck

174
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: have one thing in common. Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck

175
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: were bottle fed by guys that had an NFL playbook.

176
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: In the other hand, Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck were

177
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: tucked into bed by guys that got home late that

178
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: night because they were in the film room. Peyton Manning

179
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: and Andrew Luck went to bed listening to watting or

180
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: analyzing with a flashlight once the parents said it was

181
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: time to turn the light plays that their dad were

182
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: running in the NFL or in college. And Andrew Luck's case,

183
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: he was following his dad to Europe in the World

184
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: League and watching the World League of American Football that

185
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: ISA was in charge of. And then they went to college.

186
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: Both Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck and played a ton

187
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 1: of college games, and when they got to the NFL,

188
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: they were plug and ready to play. Now that's not

189
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: to say they didn't struggle. Peyton Manning in particular, he's

190
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 1: through more interceptions as a rookie than any quarterback in

191
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. But Peyton Manning knew from

192
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 1: a very from the time he came out of the womb.

193
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: He saw. When Peyton Manning was like two years old,

194
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: he was interviewed by some TV guy that says, Peyton,

195
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 1: who's your favorite player? Dad? He'd been around in the

196
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 1: NFL his entire life. And I think that Jim Mersay

197
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: at no fault of Jim Irsay, I understand it, but

198
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: I think that Jim Mersay just thought, See, when you

199
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: have a player that is a top five pick you've

200
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 1: got the only way to prepare them is to throw

201
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: them to the wolves. And Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck

202
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: could handle that because they are the point zero zero

203
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 1: one percent of players that had that sort of a pedigree.

204
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: And Anthony Richardson wasn't ready for it, and they threw

205
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: him out there and it didn't go well, and he

206
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 1: didn't learn because he was sitting there just trying to

207
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: count the arrows flying past him. And then they said, okay,

208
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: now we're going to put you on the sideline and

209
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: have you watched from there? And then he came back

210
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: in and then he had you know, he got hurt,

211
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: and the helmet tap and all that. There's just too

212
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: much history there, and I truly do believe that they

213
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: now have come to that conclusion this is our guy.

214
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: And then Richardson, you know, and we'll see Richardson may

215
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 1: well be the starter by week five or he. I

216
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: don't think he'll be traded, but he could be right.

217
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 1: A million ways that you can look at it, a

218
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: million ways that you can look at it. And he

219
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, By the way, I wore

220
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: this last night for the draft, and I'm curious. I'm

221
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: wearing how would you describe the jacket that I'm wearing?

222
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: Is it just a it's.

223
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 2: An Adidas jacket jake with eu oasis?

224
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, like, do you list this as sec

225
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: sweat jacket, like a a zip up a.

226
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 2: Hoodie warm up jacket, warm up jack?

227
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 3: Ok?

228
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: So this here's what I want to know. Which looks better?

229
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: You are the hip fashionable guy? Oh?

230
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 2: Shoot, really wait.

231
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: When it comes to these collars, the zip up collars,

232
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: I'd like to know this, Eddie. Here you go. You ready,

233
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: you have option number one and option number one zip down,

234
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 1: zip down, but the collars up. Option two is you

235
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: take the collars and you go like seventies with it

236
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: and you try to matt it down like this. Okay,

237
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: can you see option two? It doesn't really stay down,

238
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: but yeah, okay, it doesn't okay. And then option three

239
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: is the zip all the way up up against the

240
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: bottom of the chin like that option one. Option one

241
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: is that that's the tom Selleck look.

242
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 2: Either that or you go a combination between one and

243
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 2: three where it's like half.

244
00:13:52,840 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 1: Zipped right there. Yeah, no one, okay, anyway, it makes

245
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: for great radio. But we will over the course of today.

246
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: Here's the bottom line. Over the course of today, between

247
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: now and four o'clock, there are probably going to be

248
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: more whispers, more inklings, more leaks of players that are

249
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 1: going to be released for the Colts, and usually the

250
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: Colts in the past, if precedent is any indication, we're

251
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: going to know at like five thirty what their rosters.

252
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: Wasn't it last year? Am I hallucinating here? Somebody helped

253
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: me out. Was it last year where they were literally

254
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: like the last team to announce their roster? Am I

255
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: correcting that very well? Could have been? I think that's right.

256
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: I mean I think last year it was literally eight

257
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: o'clock before, like you know, people were like, what is

258
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: going on here? Why are what's taking so long? And

259
00:14:54,080 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 1: then finally they announced it. But we'll see what the

260
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: surprises are out there. Are there any other players, Eddie

261
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: that you look at and you go, you know what,

262
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: It would not surprise me if this one is a

263
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: quote unquote surprise on the Cult roster?

264
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: Yes, probably not not At this point, it just felt

265
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: like it was pretty easy to predict who would be

266
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 2: you know, waved or released or whatever the proper terminology is.

267
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 2: And there's not really anybody. Uh, they didn't just release

268
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 2: Crystal Minds. That's not surprising. They did bring them on

269
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 2: late in training camp. But that's another one. I haven't

270
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: really seen any guys that, you know.

271
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, Wesley French surprised me a little bit, right.

272
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 2: Ah, maybe, I mean you've got uh Bordolini and Pinter, Yeah,

273
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 2: I get that, but I Pincher is a little bit

274
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 2: more flexible.

275
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: You can play center. Sure, no, that's true. But okay,

276
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: what about this situation though? And this is where it's

277
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: it's because Pitcher can play a couple of different positions.

278
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: And I know that you're getting this. Maybe he gets

279
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: a little too dangerous to start analyzing it in these

280
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: sort of hypotheticals, But what what about the fact Let's

281
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: say that there is a game or a situation later

282
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: in there. Let's say Bordolini gets hurt, rolls his ankle,

283
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: and Pener is already giving you relief on another area

284
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: of the line. Do you have then you put Pener

285
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: in its center. You've got to then get other players

286
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: that give depth behind Penter at other spots. Right. I

287
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: just think French gives you because he is a guy

288
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: that has experience on the line. My personal thought is,

289
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: and maybe he doesn't have good experience on the line,

290
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: but my personal thought is that is a position where

291
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 1: I would rather. I just don't think you can have

292
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: too many.

293
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 2: Delton Tucker, who can probably play both fair guard positions.

294
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 2: That probably means he's.

295
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: He struggled last year at times, right, Yeah, I mean

296
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: I guess they all did it. The line offensive line.

297
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 2: To me, it just makes you wonder also, Jake, is

298
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 2: there gonna be a guy that they have out there that's,

299
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: you know, either a linebacker or offensive line that they

300
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: you know, make another trade like they did yesterday, where

301
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 2: it's like a later round, you know, day three pick,

302
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 2: if it's a fifth, sixth or seventh round pick, that

303
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 2: of a guy that could be cut that they liked,

304
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 2: that they want to add for depth purposes.

305
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: So they went out and got and we were sitting

306
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: there in the middle of our draft and all of

307
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: a sudden, Eddie says, the Colts just made a trade.

308
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: And everybody got excited, right like, oh yeah, who And

309
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: You're like, they just locked in Blackman in the defensive backfield.

310
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: It was like Julian and it's not right. Nope.

311
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 2: Mackai Blackman, a former third round pick out of USC

312
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 2: rook here was twenty twenty three. He missed last year

313
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 2: with a torn acl but was promising in his reworks

314
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 2: forty one tackles, three tackles for loss of interception in

315
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 2: a fumble recovery. Started three games from Minnesota, but he

316
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 2: played in virtually all of them. Is a rookie, right, yeah,

317
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 2: played fifteen games and got three starts.

318
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 1: So he was probably and he's smaller than this, but

319
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: he's kind of like, what would you say, like maybe

320
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: what Isaiah Rodgers was for the Colts as a rookie,

321
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: you know, a depth piece that got his number called

322
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: from time to time. But what's curious about that again,

323
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: and we talked about it yesterday with my chapel. When

324
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: the roster comes down to fifty three, that's the fifty

325
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: three that are announced on that day. That does not

326
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: mean that's the fifty three that you're going to have

327
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,360
Speaker 1: to start week one, because they will make changes as

328
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: other players are released. They're going to find guys that

329
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: they go, okay, well, that's and this, you know, Blackman

330
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: is an example of somebody that you give up a

331
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: sixth rounder for him. Is that because they feel that

332
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 1: they simply need depth at that position. Is that because

333
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: they simply are anticipating that somebody may be still as

334
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: dinged up and not going to be able to go

335
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: and they want to have an insurance policy there, or

336
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: as it because they just don't like what they've seen

337
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: out of guys. Those are all questions that eventually Chris

338
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: Ballard will answer, I would assume, But it is curious

339
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: that that is a listen. I'm not opposed to it.

340
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: I'm not opposed to it anytime you go out and

341
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 1: get yourself depth of that position, because I think it's

342
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: just an area where you can use it. And in

343
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 1: addition to that, Chris Ballard when it comes to the

344
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: corner area, I'll give him benefit of the doubt. I

345
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: don't think that Ballard has been a great talent evaluator

346
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: in terms of defensive line or pass rush, because if

347
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 1: you look at players that he has taken in high position,

348
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, Dio comes to mind. He was a good player.

349
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: But again, you try to keep your own in house

350
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: if you find them to be beyond simply a good player,

351
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: and you know that's one that obviously they let go.

352
00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: But if you look at the resources that he is

353
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: put into defensive line seemingly over and over each and

354
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: every year, that's one area where I don't know that

355
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: he's gotten it right. But at corner, I go back

356
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: to a year ago corner in safety, both they took

357
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: chances on guys like Nick Cross, who they took as

358
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 1: a third rounder, and they did so based strictly on

359
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: his athleticism. They loved the fact that he had ranged

360
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: and was a great athlete, but hadn't instinctively learned the

361
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: position yet. And there were a couple of other areas

362
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: maybe where the eyebrow was raised. But Ballard, to me,

363
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: does earn benefit of the doubt based on this. It

364
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 1: was a year ago when he said, and I'm paraphrasing, look,

365
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: I have a defensive backend secondary room that in order

366
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: to properly evaluate and determine who all of these guys

367
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: are and what I have, they gotta play. I gotta

368
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: let him play. And so when we were a year

369
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: ago going who are these guys? It was like the

370
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 1: movie Major League? Who are these guys? They went out

371
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 1: and I thought, when healthy, some of those guys played well.

372
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: I thought, I really like Juju Brents. I do, and

373
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: I hope he makes the roster because health has been

374
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: an issue there and we haven't gotten a chance for

375
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: him to really show what he can do. But I

376
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: like him. I think he's got good size. I know

377
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: when I say he has good range seal like mel Kiper.

378
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't want to sell like mel Kuiper. I like

379
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: mel Kiper, but I don't want to sell like mel Kiper.

380
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,360
Speaker 1: Whatever happened to that Todd mcshah Eddie, Oh Tod Todd

381
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: Todd did he didn't he get I know that he

382
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 1: had some personal struggles. But is he still with ESPN?

383
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 4: Uh?

384
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 2: No, he was with the Raiders if you for a

385
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 2: while for a few years as a GM Todd McShay.

386
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: From ESPN. Wait, who am I thinking of?

387
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 2: No, I'm thinking to the guy from NFL.

388
00:21:54,359 --> 00:22:00,159
Speaker 1: Network, because Todd mcshae is the one that was He

389
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: was everywhere and then and ESPN does this a lot,

390
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: and then seemingly he was like invisible, but we later

391
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: found out. I think he had some personal challenges. I

392
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: I don't begrudge him for that. I mean, I wish

393
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: him the best for that, but he so he when

394
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 1: that happened, he was kind of phased out and then

395
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: like I feel like for a while there he was

396
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: or wasn't brought back. I don't know, but it was

397
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 1: Mayok That's who I was thinking of that. Yeah, Mike

398
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: Mayok was the Raiders. Yeah. But either way, I think

399
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,479
Speaker 1: that that Ballard gets some credit with defensive So when

400
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: he goes out and makes a trade on the eve

401
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: of the roster being finalized and gives up a sixth

402
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: round pick, for a guy that might be able to

403
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: give them something. I mean, you would hope if you

404
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: draft a player in round number six. Todd mcshay's with

405
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: the ringer, now the ringer, h Okay, when you draft

406
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: a guy in the sixth round, if you were to say, hey, listen,

407
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: this sixth round pick that you had is going to

408
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: play and appear in eight games, start one of them,

409
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: and take forty percent the snaps in the other seven games,

410
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,640
Speaker 1: you'd probably take that sixth rounder. He makes the roster,

411
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: that's what he does. That's cool. So if you can

412
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: spend a sixth rounder for a guy that goes out

413
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: and brings you that much back, I think you're in

414
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: pretty good shape. But we shall see what happens with that.

415
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: The fever and action coming up Seattle, correct, Eddie, Yes,

416

Speaker 1: week and the injuries just keep piling up and there

419
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: are just a lot of question marks. And for those

420
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: questions we turn to the one that would know best.

421
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 1: Stephanie White joins us as she has been nice enough

422
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: to do each and every week during the WNBA season.

423
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 1: That conversation next, Steven Hole, we're on the program coming

Speaker 1: up about thirty five minutes from now, about twenty minutes

425
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: from now. A dude I met over the weekend that

426
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 1: I said to myself, Dude, I do a radio show

427
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 1: and you got to come on. And he said, let's go.

428
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: And I thought to myself, this guy's instant party. That

429
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: conversation in about twenty But Stephanie White Fever right now,

430
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: things kind of hanging in the balance for that postseason.

431
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: They got to write that ship, but they got to

432
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: get healthy. A lot of question marks, a lot of

433
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 1: questions hopefully answers. Next, it is not on a big

434
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 1: old Jenare liner, but rather right here at home. In

435
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: other words, the Fever aren't taking a plane to their

436
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: next game. They are at home tonight taking on the

437
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: Seattle Storm. Seven o'clock tip. You can hear it right

438
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,239
Speaker 1: here on this radio station. And for those of you

439
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: who are inevitably clamoring for more Eddie Garrison on your

440
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 1: radio airwaves, no worries. Six forty five pregame. Eddie will

441
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: have that duty before the game tonight. Joining us now

442
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 1: on the program is the head coach of the Indiana

443
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: fever Stephanie White, who requested Steve Miller last week when

444
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: we talked to her, I guess I'll begin with this.

445
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: When you were in high school true or false, Indiana

446
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: Miss Basketball Stephanie White, while driving to school would be

447
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 1: listening to Steve Miller and thought for certain that he

448
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: was actually saying big old Jet got a light on?

449
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: Yes or no?

450
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 5: No?

451
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 6: What who said jet? Who said get a light on?

452
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 1: You've never heard people always say one of the most

453
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: common So so let me ask you this. Give me

454
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: a song that you were singing along to the radio

455
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 1: your entire life, and then once like the advent of

456
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: the Apple iPhone lists the lyrics, you were like, oh

457
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: my gosh, that's what the lyrics are. I've been doing

458
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: it wrong all this time. There has to be one

459
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 1: to remember.

460
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 6: Like back in those days, like the internet dialougu didn't

461
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 6: even come into play.

462
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 5: Until I was in college.

463
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 6: So by the time we got to the Apple iPhone,

464
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 6: the words coming lyrics coming across the Apple iPhone. I

465
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 6: mean that was just recently for me, right, Like I'm

466
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 6: so old school.

467
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: Oh it's mind blowing, I know, but.

468
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,719
Speaker 6: I'm trying to think there have been a no you know,

469
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 6: probably tell me what you want in spice girls, right.

470
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 7: Something like that.

471
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: Okay, there's a song for next week exactly all of them.

472
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 6: That go really fast and they caught of run together.

473
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,479
Speaker 6: But jet air liner no, because I don't know if

474
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 6: you remember this, but I majored in aviation in college.

475
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 2: Oh oh.

476
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 6: I was always like flying was always my thing. So

477
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 6: the jet air liner was definitely not one of those.

478
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: No way, okay, because those of us that don't have

479
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,239
Speaker 1: the intellect of majoring and aviation always thought that it

480
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: was not always not a lot. But there are people

481
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: that joke that they that they sing along to it,

482
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: saying big old jet got a light on, because that's

483
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: what it sounds like you're saying. Now, I'm curious when

484
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: you were when you flew planes, because obviously for that

485
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:50,719
Speaker 1: program coach at Purdue, you had to do like solo flights, correct, yes, okay,

486
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,159
Speaker 1: more turbulence your first solo flight or the injury report

487
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 1: for the fever of the last six weeks.

488
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 6: The injury report for the fever over the last six weeks,

489
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 6: No doubt.

490
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: When you are flying a plane and there's turbulence, everybody

491
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: says to me that that's a pilot, They're like, look turbulence, Jake, Like,

492
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: as a passenger, I know it's unnerving, but like it's

493
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: not as smaller planes. I realize it's a little bit

494
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: you know, trickier. But when you are coaching, and I

495
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,399
Speaker 1: know we talked about this last week, you know, you

496
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,959
Speaker 1: have to do this navigation of treading through and what

497
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: really has been almost unprecedented within this franchise of the

498
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: number of players that you've lost, but it's all been

499
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: kind of in the same area in your back court.

500
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: So let's begin with this Caitlin Clark, I know now

501
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: is starting to kind of work out again. If you

502
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 1: had to target or benchmark where you are hoping to

503
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: be the area where she could return to gameplay, it

504
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: would be.

505
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 6: When I mean, we still haven't had a full practice

506
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 6: with her on the floor, and ideally we'd like to

507
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 6: get about five of those practices in just to make

508
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 6: sure endurance level, movement patterns, physicality, all of those things

509
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 6: are there for her, you know. So that's got to happen.

510
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 6: And so this week on the road, when we're out

511
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 6: west and being able to get some of those practices

512
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 6: in is going to be is going to be critical.

513
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 1: And I realize that you know, when it comes to injuries,

514
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 1: you're not the team trainer. I understand that stepan in.

515
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: I can't remember if we talked about this last week,

516
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: but when you are looking at the overall movement and

517
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 1: just Caitlin Clark reacclimating physically back into the game, Originally

518
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: it was a groin injury, then we now know that

519
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: there was a bone bruise. I think in the ankle area.

520
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: Is it one area versus the other that you guys

521
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: are targeting in terms of looking at in terms of

522
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 1: her comfort.

523
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 6: Level, I mean I think that for her right now,

524
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 6: it's I'm mostly focused on as a coach in durance

525
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 6: because being able to get up and down the floor

526
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 6: and run not just in straight lines, but run in

527
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 6: in movement patterns that she's going to have to withstand

528
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 6: ninety four feet pressure handling the ball, being able to

529
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 6: move on the defensive end of the floor. What I'd

530
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 6: don't want as a coach is if she's not ready

531
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 6: from an endurance standpoint, that they're setting her up for

532
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 6: more injury. I mean, she hasn't played ball in two months,

533
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 6: and so while the athletic training staff might be looking

534
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 6: at how quickly she's firing from a muscle standpoint, or

535
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 6: how sharper movements are from the bone bruce standpoint. I

536
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 6: want to make sure that she's physically fit enough to

537
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 6: with handle the pressure that she's going to have throughout

538
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 6: the course of however many minutes, she's able to play

539
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 6: in a ball game without setting her back, because again,

540
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 6: you know, I think from that perspective, it's the long

541
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 6: term health and wellness is the most important thing in

542
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 6: making sure that we're not going to put her in

543
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 6: a position that she's not ready to succeed in.

544
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: When you look at the players that you have been

545
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: able to acquire and plug in as you have lost players,

546
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: and again primarily in your backcourt, right when you look

547
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: at what Odyssey Sim's shape, petty aerial powers have been

548
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: able to do for you. Do you have to alter

549
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: at all the style of play that you're hoping or

550
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: that you have become a custom as a franchise to

551
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: play because of the new faces, or is it, Hey,

552
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: this is how we play, and this is how we

553
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: want you guys to be able to continue playing as

554
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: you yourselves gel with this new team.

555
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 6: It's a little bit of both. I mean, certainly we

556
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 6: have to scale back, you know, We've got to we've

557
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 6: got to simplify. You know, at this time of the year,

558
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 6: you'd typically be tweaking, adjusting, changing, changing the framework of

559
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 6: of what you do in terms of the way that

560
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 6: it presents in alignments and things like that. And we're teaching,

561
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 6: we're teaching, you know, two or three secondary actions that

562
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 6: we can run, two or three things that we can

563
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 6: get any offense. Because we're talking about primary ball handler

564
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,719
Speaker 6: specific to shap Petty and Odyssey Sims who have not

565
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 6: been in training camp since April, who were just throwing

566
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 6: into the fire right now. So instead of instead of

567
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 6: tweaking and and adjusting and adding, we're simplifying and we're

568
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 6: going back to basics, and so we do it from

569
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 6: that standpoint, you know. But also so we have to

570
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 6: find a way as coaches to put those guys in

571
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 6: positions to be successful because they're different than CC and

572
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 6: Airy and SID and so being able to do a

573
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 6: little bit of both allowing them to do what they

574
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 6: do instinctually and naturally, because that's how we're going to

575
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 6: find success at this point for them, as well as

576
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 6: integrating them into what we have found success with as

577
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 6: a team, and so trying to find those things and

578
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 6: then building the chemistry and continuity in those actions. You know,

579
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 6: I think Odyssey has had three practices, and Shay's had

580
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 6: two practices, and Ariel got her first one yesterday. So

581
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 6: that's that's kind of the situation that we're in right now.

582
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 6: And you know, thankfully those three have had experience in

583
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 6: our league and have been able to come in and

584
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 6: be impactful, and now it's just how quickly can we

585
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 6: can we get it jailed and get it moving.

586
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: Do you believe in momentum? I do, as do I

587
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: I know some people do not, especially in the course

588
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: of a game. You know, there's there's two kinds of

589
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,239
Speaker 1: moment the coach. There's there's game momentum where you can

590
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: just kind of feel things for one side or the other.

591
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: And then there's end season momentum when you look at

592
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: and I realize that injuries have been a major part

593
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: of this, yeah, but when you look at the way

594
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: that your team is playing or right now having the

595
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: playoffs kind of hanging in that balance, you're a game

596
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: over five hundred, you got seven tough ones left. How

597
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: do you manage or manipulate the momentum.

598
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know if you can manipulate it at all.

599
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 6: But you know, I even think back to these last

600
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 6: two games against Minnesota, and for the most part in

601
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 6: the game we had some momentum. It's when you give

602
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 6: it away to really good teams for those four to

603
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 6: five minute segments, they make you pay, and Minnesota did

604
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 6: that to us. Obviously, they're the best team in the

605
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 6: league for a reason. But I was pleased really with

606
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 6: how we played on the offensive end of the floor.

607
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 6: I mean, I thought we were efficient, I thought we

608
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 6: were affected. We got good shots, sometimes they went in,

609
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 6: sometimes they didn't. Oh you know, it's it then becomes

610
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 6: the defensive end of the floor and the consistency with that.

611
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 6: So I do feel like this next week is a

612
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 6: is a really great opportunity for us to gain some

613
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 6: some of that momentum, you know, certainly starting with tonight

614
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 6: against Seattle and then we go out on the road

615
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 6: and have it a couple of days with this group

616
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 6: to be able to have a couple of games and

617
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,719
Speaker 6: I practice day to be able to build some of that.

618
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 6: It's a It's a critical time for us. There's no

619
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 6: doubt about it. You know, this team has been able

620
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 6: to show that they can put us in positions to win,

621
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 6: and now we've got to be able to get connected

622
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 6: to gain that momentum and be consistent on both ends

623
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 6: of the floor.

624
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: By the way, your degree from Purdue is in communications.

625
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 1: Is that correct?

626
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 6: It is? Yes, two years in aviation and then two

627
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 6: years in communication.

628
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: Okay, So how about that? Okay? And so graduation does

629
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: that mean? And I'm just curious does that mean essentially

630
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 1: that that you looked at it? And I'm not I'm

631
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: not taking anything away from your efforts, but the aviation

632
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: did you get two years into that and then say

633
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 1: this is really time consuming? I want to do something

634
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: that like a monkey could do and talking radio? Is

635
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: that what that's? Is that what this means?

636
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 7: It's not?

637
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 6: That is not I actually got two years into it

638
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 6: and realized it was much more of a hobby than

639
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 6: a career opportunity, and then change to communications, having no

640
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 6: idea what I wanted to do, certainly, but but yes,

641
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,919
Speaker 6: that was it was not physical education, but it was communications.

642
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 5: Right.

643
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: What's the and pardon my my naivete on this, right,

644
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: with flight aviation, how far I assume that's a four

645
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: year program, correct, obviously, So if you were two years

646
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: into it, did you get into the actual substance of

647
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: it or were you still doing mostly pre rights In

648
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,320
Speaker 1: other words, did you do much flying?

649
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 6: Of course we did flying on day one. I had

650
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 6: my license in first semester.

651
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: Really, now, how long does that license hold up? You

652
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: still have it?

653
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 6: I have a license, but I'm not current. You have

654
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 6: to you have to go up every three months. Well

655
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 6: at that time it was every three months to stay current.

656
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 6: And after I graduated from COW, I still went up

657
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,720
Speaker 6: while I was in college with my buddies from flight school,

658
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 6: and not a little bit after college. But but after

659
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 6: I got into into coaching and finished playing, I hadn't.

660
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,760
Speaker 6: I hadn't done that. But by the time I finished,

661
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 6: I had not. You know, when you get into that,

662
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 6: you know, year three, year four, you're you're talking multi

663
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,240
Speaker 6: engine rating and then jet ratings, and then you're deciding

664
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 6: whether you want to go get the commercial route or

665
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,439
Speaker 6: the private route. And I did not get into into

666
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 6: any of that.

667
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: So what's the biggest plane that you flew? And if

668
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 1: you did solo that you did.

669
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,839
Speaker 6: Solo single engines like single engine Cessnaspipers.

670
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: So what's the furthest distance you flew?

671
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 6: When you do solo fights, they're they're pretty regional. So

672
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 6: I think the furthest one I did was from Purdue

673
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 6: to Bloomington, Normal, Illinois, up to Kalamazoo, Michigan, and then

674
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 6: back to Purdue.

675
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 1: I mean that's pretty impressive. I did you find And

676
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: I know that this sounds really dumb to ask, Okay,

677
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 1: but in any way, shape or form, did being an

678
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: athlete help you with that? Or vice versa? Because of

679
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: the fact that, like if you're reading instruments and whatever else,

680
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: you've got to make quick decisions. Your mind has to

681
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: process things did in any way, shape or form one

682
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 1: parlay to the other it did.

683
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 6: And doing things under pressure, like I remember there was one,

684
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 6: you know they call them cross country flights. You're not

685
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:18,879
Speaker 6: really going across the country. One flight that I had

686
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 6: to Bloomington Normal and back and my alternator went out.

687
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 6: And so being able to just stay under you know,

688
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 6: stay calm under pressure, be able to go through the

689
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 6: checklist of hey, let's try to get this back, let's

690
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 6: see what's happening here, to be able to communicate or

691
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 6: not communicate with with with tower and go through the

692
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 6: entire process. Being able to stay calm under pressure and

693
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 6: being an athlete and being in those situations certainly helped

694
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 6: as well.

695
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: My alternator goes out, I go to AutoZone, right, I'm

696
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: not radioing into people to find out how to fly

697
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: a plant. I mean that truly is remarkable though. And

698
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: then my last thing on this, and I promise we'll

699
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: get back to basketball before we wrap here. Did you

700
00:36:56,040 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: find that most of the classmates that you had do

701
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 1: most of them go? I think we think to ourselves like, oh,

702
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: you go on from there and you either fly for

703
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: like FedEx or American Airlines. But you know, when you

704
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: look at you know, simple stuff in terms of like

705
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 1: agricultural aviation and things like that, is it all across

706
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: the board in terms of those opportunities, It is.

707
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 6: All across the board. And now a majority of them

708
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 6: do go commercial airline or private and charters. And in fact,

709
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 6: sometimes there would be I would be flying with with

710
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 6: places that I was coaching, and some of our charter

711
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 6: charter flight pilots would be people that I went to

712
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 6: flight school with, and so so yeah, there's there's a

713
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 6: lot of different areas that you can go into and

714
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 6: different directions that you can go. And you know, usually

715
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 6: by by sophomore year you're making those decisions, and as

716
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 6: you go into junior year, you're making those decisions and.

717
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 5: Where you want to go.

718
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 6: Now that was back in the old days. That might

719
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:45,879
Speaker 6: be accelerated now.

720
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,800
Speaker 1: My sophomore year at college, I learned how to balance

721
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: my checkbook. My parents were so proud. Meanwhile, you're you're

722
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: radioing in alternator problems in Bloomington, normal and dealing with it.

723
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 1: Very impressive. All right, seven o'clock tonight, it is Seattle

724
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 1: and the Fever at the field House as Indiana one

725
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,399
Speaker 1: more time. Coach. In terms of Caitlin Clark, I want

726
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: to recap this. You'd like to see five practices out

727
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,919
Speaker 1: of her and to see that endurance before you then

728
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: try to put her back out on the floor in

729
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: a game situation.

730
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 6: Correct, Yeah, I mean for me, the endurance piece. We

731
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,839
Speaker 6: want to get her into five practices before he put

732
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 6: her out there in a game for sure, just to

733
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 6: see where she is and handling the level of physicality

734
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 6: and making that making sure that she's ready.

735
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 1: And she's had how many so far?

736
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 6: No live practices so far? I mean everything that we've done,

737
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 6: has been has been basically like.

738
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: A shot round walk through. Is that kind of thing? Okay,

739
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 1: all right, coach, best of luck. We appreciate the time

740
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,439
Speaker 1: as all right here, thanks you all right. Stephanie White

741
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 1: joining us on the program We Come Back. I was

742
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 1: walking Pitt Road over the weekend and saw a guy

743
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: standing there and I thought, this guy looks fun. I

744
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: want to know what his story is and talk to him.

745
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: And immediately said, dude, I do a radio show in India.

746
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 1: I want you to come on real quick and share

747
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,919
Speaker 1: your story. And he said, add a problem. That's because

748
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 1: he's from Wisconsin and I'm making fun of the way

749
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: people talk up there. But he does have a Wisconsin accent.

750
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 1: But I promise it'll be a fun story. We will

751
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 1: get to that coming up in Steven Holder. What time

752
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: today for Steven Eddie?

753
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 2: We are chatting with the ESPN dot com.

754
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,359
Speaker 1: Reporter for the Colts in fifteen minutes. All right, sounds good.

755
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: So over the weekend, I was in Milwaukee for the

756
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: IndyCar Race. Christian Rasmussen gets to win. But I'm walking

757
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 1: around and I see this guy. I kept kind of

758
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: bumping into this guy, and he looked like he was

759
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: having a good time. It's certain people you see and

760
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: you I always say, you can always tell when you

761
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: meet people. There's two kinds of guys in this world,

762
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: those with the program and those that aren't. And you

763
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: can just tell when a dude is with the program,

764
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: and you're like, that guy is the life of the party.

765
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: And he's wearing a Santino Ferrucci shirt's and he's walking

766
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 1: around and he looks very official. He's got a headset on.

767
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: So finally I ask somebody, I say, who's the new

768
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: like Crucie for Santina Ferucci And they said, oh no,

769
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,919
Speaker 1: that's not Ferrucci, and they explain what he's doing there,

770
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,440
Speaker 1: and I said, that is fabulous. And I went up

771
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: and talked to him and immediately said, this guy's fun.

772
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: So he joins us now on the show. Doug Gilman

773
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: is his name. He is a native of Wisconsin. And

774
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: when I say native Wisconsin, folks, I'm telling you, this

775
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: guy's like Badger through and through. I don't know if

776
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: he's a Badger fan or a Marquette fan. So well,

777
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,879
Speaker 1: I guess we'll start with that. Doug, which Wisconsin team

778
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: do you pull for all of the Badgers, all of

779
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: the Badgers. That's a right of passage in Wisconsin, is

780
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: it not?

781
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,439
Speaker 8: Unless you actually go to school at Marquette, I would

782
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 8: say ninety five of us percent of us are Badger.

783
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 1: Fan, okay, and then obviously it goes without saying. And

784
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: you know, fortunately I didn't see you stripped down to

785
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 1: your skivvies, but if you did, most of you is

786
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 1: green and gold, right because you're a Packer fan.

787
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 9: Especially this time of the year.

788
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 5: Man.

789
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, kind of kind of born and raised and baptized

790
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 8: and grew up at Lambelefield, Yes.

791
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 1: Sir, okay. So I want to get to this, how

792
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: in the world did you become a guy? And I

793
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: know this answer, but I want you to share it

794
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 1: with with fans here of the radio program. How in

795
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: the world did you end up wearing a headset and

796
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 1: following around Santino Ferrucci for the weekend at Milwaukee.

797
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 8: Well last year this passed June up at Elcott Lake

798
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 8: at Road America. After the race, Santino, who finished third,

799
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 8: ran out of fuel literally pretty much coming to the

800
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 8: checker flag and kind of coasted the car down to

801
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 8: the bottom of turn one and shut the car off

802
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 8: and got out of the car, and that day, if

803
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 8: any of your viewers remember, was almost one hundred degrees

804
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 8: up in Wisconsin and for for middle of June, that's

805
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:39,760
Speaker 8: really hot.

806
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 1: And he got out of the car and just.

807
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 8: Absolutely looked exhausted and took a minute or two to

808
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 8: catch his breath. And then you know, it's a good

809
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 8: quarter of a mile from the bottom of turn one,

810
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 8: you know, back to Pitt Lane. So he just kind

811
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 8: of started walking by the fans and everybody's kind of,

812
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 8: you know, waving to him, and he's kind of interacting

813
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 8: just a little bit, and a fan of about thirty

814
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 8: feet down from me, uh asked him if he wanted

815
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,959
Speaker 8: a bottle of water, and he kind of waved it over,

816
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 8: and the guy chucked it over the fence and it

817
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 8: landed about, you know, twenty feet from from Santino burst everywhere.

818
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 8: You only got a gulp or two, and I kind

819
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 8: of looked over at my dad. I go, I think

820
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 8: he'd won a beer. So I yelled, hey, Santino, you know,

821
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 8: would you like a beer? And he and he waved

822
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 8: it over and kind of all in the split second,

823
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 8: I just reached into the cooler, grabbed one and kind

824
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 8: of grenade, shucked it over the fence and he the

825
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 8: guy made a phenomenal catch. I mean, I said, man,

826
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 8: he could, we could sign him up for the packers,

827
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 8: and uh, you know, just kind of pounded it and

828
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 8: you know, and I just thought that was it, you

829
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 8: know whatever, that's cool. And and here it come to

830
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 8: find out that you know, there was a Fox you know,

831
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 8: live camera, you know, at the bottom of turn one

832
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 8: and they actually caught the whole thing live after the race,

833
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 8: and uh, it just kind of kind of went from there.

834
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 8: So yeah, they you know, the team. Eventually, I just

835
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 8: I just did a simple post. Know I'm not a

836
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 8: big social media guy. I'm forty seven years old, you know,

837
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 8: I'm not a big you know, TikToker or whatever. And

838
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 8: it got picked up on Fox Sports and Indie Cars,

839
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,439
Speaker 8: Facebook and stuff, and I just sit a simple comment like, hey,

00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 8: you know what an awesome race and oh, by the way,

841
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,359
Speaker 8: I was a guy that threw santino to beer. And

842
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 8: it just kind of went from there. And a couple

843
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 8: of days later, the amazing ladies at at Foyt Racing

844
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 8: reached out to me and it just kind of all,

845
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 8: you know, just all culminated and we we decided to

846
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 8: get together at the racetrack in August here in Milwaukee,

847
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:36,719

Speaker 1: kind of grown up around racing, But to be able

859
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 1: to listen to the radio activity. When I said radio,

860
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 1: I mean for Rouchie talking to his team and the

861
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 1: engineers and just kind of being on the inside like that,

862
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: how much more appreciation did you get for what all

863
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: goes into a race.

864
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 8: Oh, It's just it's just amazing. I wish every fan

00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 8: could do that once in their lifetime. And the amount

866
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 8: of access they gave to us was was incredible. And

867
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 8: watching the teams pit the car, you know, four or

868
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 8: five times that day and all the analytics that go

869
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 8: into it, in the in the in the engineers and

870
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 8: and the whole process and the way that the pit

871
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 8: stops are you know, it's it's like it's like a

872
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 8: scripted play in football or something like that. And you know,

873
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,080

Speaker 8: the amount of access they gave to us. But yeah,

886
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 8: I wish everybody, you know, at some point could just

00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 8: kind of just get an idea or.

888
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 9: An experience what what a race day is like. It's

889
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,439
Speaker 9: it's it's ONNLEI w all hard these people work.

890
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: Now do you considerate do you consider Miller Lytton Broughts

891
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: to be two of the essential food groups?

892
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,719
Speaker 8: I would say yeah, I said around here, you know

893
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 8: we I live ten minutes from Johnsonville Brots. I lived

894
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 8: ten minutes from Sergento cheese, and uh, you know on

895
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,359
Speaker 8: Miller Lte of course is a staple and something that

896
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 8: we're known for around the world here in Wisconsin. So

897
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 8: I'd say, I'd say that is that is a food group.

898
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,720
Speaker 1: Now listen, I want to know this dog. Doug Gilman

899
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: is our guest. Have you been to the Indianapolis five hundred.

900
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 8: I am not, sir, No, that's kind of a bucket

901
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 8: list first thing for me. I've been to the Brickyard

902
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 8: a couple of times, but I have not. Unfortunately up here.

903
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 8: Memorial Day weekend is kind of a kickoff to the

904
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,880
Speaker 8: summer up here, and you know it's it's an up

905
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 8: north weekend and everything a family weekend, and so no, Unfortunately,

906
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,760
Speaker 8: the Indy five hundred. I've been to Daytona five hundred

907
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 8: numerous times, but I have not been to the Indy

908
00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 8: five hundred.

909
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: Okay, and I understand Doug the and you know you

910
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: mentioned your dad and everything else, and I certainly understand

911
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: the family aspect of Memorial Day weekend. Would you this

912
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: year be interested in attending the Indianapolis five.

913
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,280
Speaker 4: Hundred I would.

914
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,799
Speaker 8: I would be there in a heartbeat if the opportunity

915
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 8: was given to me.

916
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 1: Okay, what about this? What about this? And I can't

917
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 1: top the experience that you had with Santino along Pitt Road,

918
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: and at times I have auctioned this off. But so

919
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 1: I call turn three for the radio network. And up

920
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 1: there in the top of turn three, which I think

921
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 1: is the best vantage point, you can see three quarters

922
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: of the track. It's the biggest area that you can

923
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: see of the track. I need a spot I need

924
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,359
Speaker 1: a guy in a spotter. The job not spotted cow,

925
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: which is another staple up there in Wisconsin. But I

926
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:08,919
Speaker 1: need a spotter. And the spotter basically just stands next

927
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 1: to me and then if there's something that happens, hits

928
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 1: me in the arm and points that's that's really the

929
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 1: only responsibility of the spotter. But and it's a non

930
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,280
Speaker 1: paid position, but you can put it on your resume

931
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 1: as an intern. Do you want to be a spotter?

932
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: For the Indy five hundred.

933
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,720
Speaker 8: I I that's absolutely one selsand percent.

934
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, I'm gonna get a hold of you. We're

Speaker 1: can bring some of that Wisconsin trom down here to Indiana.

938
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 1: We need all of it we can get.

939
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,600
Speaker 8: I would be honored on the part of all Wisconsin

940

Speaker 1: just give me your best go pet go go go?

943

Speaker 1: All right, Doug, I'll get a hold of you, man,

944
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,760
Speaker 1: I'm being serious. I appreciate the time, and I'll speak

945
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 1: to you soon. All right, it's been a plugger. Make

946
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 1: you sure all right again? That's Doug Gillman, who, by

947
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 1: the way, owns a He told me it owns a

948
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 1: pub in Sheboygan, which I think means that we have

949
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: our dinner plans set for Road America next year. Speaking

950
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 1: of the pack, they along with the Colts, have to

951
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: come up with their roster, make it official by four

952
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: o'clock today. What will the Colts do in that regard

953
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: and what news do we have so far. Stevenholder ESPN

954
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:23,399
Speaker 1: dot Com joins us to discuss next. There have been

955
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 1: no major surprises. Sometimes there are that have leaked out

956
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:34,839
Speaker 1: in terms of players to be released from their prospective

957
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 1: NFL teams they were hoping to make the roster for

958
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 1: on this cut day. They have until four o'clock today

959
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 1: to make official. They're fifty three. Man. I guess if

960
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 1: there's one that was I mean, is this a surprise?

961
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 1: Tommy DeVito and with the New York Giants, he had

962
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 1: been kind of an overnight fan favorite a couple of

963
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 1: years ago when he got opportunity to play and played okay,

964
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 1: and then of course, you know, becomes like a Monday

965
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,879
Speaker 1: night football darling. But he is one that found out

966
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 1: that he needs to go see coach and bring his playbook.

967
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 1: Who will get that call for the Indianapolis Colts today.

968
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 1: Joining us now on the program Stephen Holder from ESPN

969
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,720
Speaker 1: dot Com, who I would assume has a very busy

970
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,760
Speaker 1: next twenty four to thirty six hours in front of him. Steven,

971
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: let's begin with this. Those so far that we either

972
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 1: know or strongly suspect are not going to make the

973
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: roster for the Colts include.

974
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 4: Who I mean.

975
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 9: I don't think any huge surprises so far. I mean

976
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,399
Speaker 9: a lot of the very predictable names have leaked out.

977
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 9: I think the one and I'll tip my cap to

978
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 9: Joel Erickson at the Star for this one, it would be,

979
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 9: I guess at tight end. I think that would be

980
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 9: the one that we're talking about. And we're talking about

981
00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 9: Joelni Woods there. Now, that was some people might be

982
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 9: surprised for that. I was not surprised. I thought that

983
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 9: was where that was going to go. I just thought

984
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 9: that other guys had a better camp. And I'm talking

985
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:16,320
Speaker 9: specifically about really Will Mallory because I think that spot

986
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 9: really boiled down to that last tight end spot. I

987
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,400
Speaker 9: presume it's the last one boils down to in my opinion,

988
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:27,200
Speaker 9: Will Mallory or Jeelanni Woods. And I thought Will Mallory

989
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:31,879
Speaker 9: was more consistent throughout camp and and probably has some

990
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,120
Speaker 9: up some upside that he can tap into. He's he's

991
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 9: been healthier. Johnnie Woods has been hurt pretty much his

992
00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 9: entire tenure in Indianapolis. So, I mean, I don't think

993
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 9: that was a really tough call for the coaches. I

994
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 9: thought that's the way that would go. But you know,

995
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 9: we'll see. The day is young, so we don't have

996
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 9: all the all the outcomes just yet.

997
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: Wesley French is one of the names that I have

998
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: seen leak out that surprised me a little bit because

999
00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 1: it's at a position where depth is a your thoughts.

1000
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:06,760
Speaker 9: So I thought that one. I kind of predicted that one.

1001
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 9: I think they have a little more interior depth than

1002
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,239
Speaker 9: they do at tackle. They just do they have more

1003
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 9: depth inside than outside. I'm looking for my prediction that

1004
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 9: I did the other day. I had. Let's see, I

1005
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 9: did not have him online. I had I had Dalton Tucker.

1006
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:30,640
Speaker 9: Maybe that was one for one there that spot, you know.

1007
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 9: And obviously Danny Pincher is another, uh, another interior depth player.

1008
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 9: So I think those would be my two interior backups

1009
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 9: just in my projection. Then I've got Jalen Travis as

1010
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,759
Speaker 9: a backup tackle and then Luke Tanuda as also as

1011
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:53,000
Speaker 9: a tackle. But I think I think that that offensive

1012
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 9: line group could be in flux. So what I mean

1013
00:51:56,040 --> 00:52:00,279
Speaker 9: by that is specifically the waiver claim situation, and I

1014
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 9: want to see whether that changes. Even after we get

1015
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 9: the final roster today at four o'clock, that could still

1016
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:09,040
Speaker 9: be in flux. For the next twenty four hours because

1017
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 9: you have waiver claims. I think they are due by

1018
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 9: noon tomorrow, and then we would get some news tomorrow afternoon,

1019
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 9: generally speaking.

1020
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 1: Stealing that thatches. Let me ask you this two things

1021
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 1: for clarification here, okay, number one, and I'm just asking

1022
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 1: you to spitball off the top of your head. Okay,

1023
00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 1: more often than not on average, Like let's say, in

1024
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 1: the time that you've covered the colts and you can

1025
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 1: include the bucks, you cover them as well. In this

1026
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: when a fifty three man roster is finalized, typically then

1027
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 1: over the course of the next couple of days, you

1028
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: see perhaps an acquisition of somebody who didn't make a

1029
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:51,399
Speaker 1: roster elsewhere, and they say, oh, you know what, let's

1030
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 1: put that guy on our roster and thus release, you know,

1031
00:52:54,560 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 1: player number fifty three. Typically, how many players on Week

1032
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 1: one on a fifty three man roster, how many of

1033
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 1: those fifty three are guys that were after cut or

1034
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,920
Speaker 1: after finalization acquisition? Does that make sense what I'm asking?

1035
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, just basically, how many how much change do you

1036
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 9: see between.

1037
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,520
Speaker 1: At the bottom of the roster you can anticipate how

1038
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 1: many guys being in limbo?

1039
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,799
Speaker 9: I think that if you're among those final three or four,

1040
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 9: you probably got to keep your head on a swivel.

1041
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 9: That's just how it is. I mean a lot of

1042
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,720
Speaker 9: times teams do have a pretty good sense of who's

1043
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 9: going to get cut somewhere else. It may be a

1044
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:42,920
Speaker 9: situation where you know, they they have some intel or

1045
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 9: they just can handicap the roster. And these teams all

1046
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 9: scout each other's preseason games, so they know like who's

1047
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 9: playing with which group and all that, right, they have

1048
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 9: all the intels they see it, and then sometimes they

1049
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:58,879
Speaker 9: actually talk to each other. So yeah, you do have

1050
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 9: guys that are targeted. There's there's no question that they

1051
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 9: target players who maybe they couldn't get them as an

1052
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,720
Speaker 9: undrafted free agent because they went somewhere else. And maybe

1053
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:10,360
Speaker 9: the guy ends up getting cut. And there was a

1054
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 9: guy that they had their eye on as an undrafted guy,

1055
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 9: and then he becomes available at final cuts, well you

1056
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:19,320
Speaker 9: take a shot at signing that guy. You know, sometimes

1057
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 9: you see guys at the bottom of the roster get cut,

1058
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:22,600
Speaker 9: then they bring them back and put them on the

1059
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 9: practice squad, you know, maybe two or three days from now.

1060
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 9: That does happen a lot also injuries, you know, tend

1061
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 9: to play into it. You know, where what is your

1062
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 9: injury situation? You'll see some guys potentially today be put

1063
00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 9: on IR, so you know that that always has some

1064
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,879
Speaker 9: impact on how things go. What's your death light as

1065
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 9: a result of that? And when I say IR, I

1066
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,799
Speaker 9: mean IR with the intention of bringing them back.

1067
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,399
Speaker 1: Looks like he could be in that position, right, Yeah, that.

1068
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,279
Speaker 9: Was trending that way. We just haven't seen him in

1069
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 9: a long time and it doesn't seem to be getting better,

1070
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 9: so that that's it looked like a blow initially, But

1071
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 9: they've had a couple of guys I guess step up

1072
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 9: at linebacker, and Joe Botchie in particular is a guy

1073
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,799
Speaker 9: that you know, I certainly had no expectations for, but

1074
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 9: apparently he's he's at a good camp and I think

1075
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:18,760
Speaker 9: he'll he'll end up playing.

1076
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 1: Okay, I want to go back to this situation as well,

1077
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 1: and there's a reason I ask it, So work with

1078
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 1: me here, Steven. When Sam Ellinger was on the roster, okay,

1079
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,759
Speaker 1: so we all knew. I mean with the exception of

1080
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:34,760
Speaker 1: that like one weird year where it was like hey, boom,

1081
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: he's your starter instead of Matt Ryan. But you had,

1082
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,719
Speaker 1: like last year, for example, you've got Joe Flacko and

1083
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson and then Ellinger was there like a was he,

1084
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: you know, the emergency quarterback or practice squad quarterback? Correct?

1085
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 1: Or was he on the fifty three man the whole time?

1086
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 9: He was generally on the fifty three man roster, but

1087
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,560
Speaker 9: he was he was definitely the third quarterback. And they

1088
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,439
Speaker 9: have altered that rule as of I think last year.

1089
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 1: Okay, that's what I wanted to clarify here, and my

1090
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 1: apologies if I'm asking about the elementary, but that rule

1091
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,400
Speaker 1: that you're talking about, the qualifying rule, and when it

1092
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,800
Speaker 1: comes to quarterback and the quote unquote emergency quarterback, et cetera,

1093
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: that impacts a roster or that means what for a roster.

1094
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,439
Speaker 9: So it is important because I think this I think

1095
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:27,359
Speaker 9: you're actually, you know, leading up to Royley Leonard question here.

1096
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:27,800
Speaker 1: Correct.

1097
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 9: So it matters a lot because I assume at least

1098
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 9: because that third quarterback, they are allowed to be activated

1099
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:40,000
Speaker 9: on game day. Now the third quarterback. This is going

1100
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 9: back to the rule that we all grew up with,

1101
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:46,799
Speaker 9: which is that third quarterback, he's available, he's dressed but

1102
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 9: he can only play if the second quarterback that the

1103
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 9: number two quarterback is not available, so the first quarterback

1104
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 9: has to go out of the game, the second quarterback

1105
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 9: replaces him, and then he becomes unavailable. That is the

1106
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:04,839
Speaker 9: only scenario where that third quarterback designated third quarterback, that's

1107
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 9: the only situation where he can play. The reason you

1108
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:10,880
Speaker 9: do it, though, is that it does not count against

1109
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 9: your allotted number of active players on game day, right,

1110
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 9: So that's the incentive. It's like, I can have this

1111
00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 9: guy dressed and in uniform and he doesn't take away

1112
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 9: an extra special teams player for me, you know, among

1113
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 9: my active players. So it's handy that way, and I

1114
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 9: think that's why teams have, at least some teams have

1115
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 9: leaned toward going with that third quarterback because it doesn't

1116
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 9: hurt you on game day. If you have a situation

1117
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,920
Speaker 9: where you have three quarterbacks but you don't have that

1118
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 9: allotment in the act the game day actives, you then

1119
00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:49,760
Speaker 9: have a spot where that third quarterback is taking someone's

1120
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 9: spot that you may need. This alleviates that problem. So

1121
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 9: there's really no disincentive unless you just can't afford him

1122
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 9: among your fifty three man roster.

1123
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: But so here's question. Yeah, Monday through Friday, that quarterback

1124
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:05,400
Speaker 1: is where in terms of the roster.

1125
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 9: He's on the active roster. Okay, he's on the active.

1126
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 1: So he is.

1127
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:09,360
Speaker 9: Fact.

1128
00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 1: The reason I ask it is because you know, there

1129
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 1: was always that that I'm trying to think of a

1130
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:18,400
Speaker 1: quarterback in the Colts' recent history where this has been

1131
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:20,440
Speaker 1: the case. But a guy that's on your practice squad

1132
00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,600
Speaker 1: then you activate him, you know, like on Sunday for

1133
00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,760
Speaker 1: the purposes of what we're talking about. Oh, PJ.

1134
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 9: Walker. Walker was that guy for like three years.

1135
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,919
Speaker 1: But he is, He's exposed, He's left unprotected to think

1136
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 1: of expansion drafts, right, It would be my assumption that

1137
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 1: the Colts do not want to run the risk of

1138
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:44,040
Speaker 1: leaving Riley Leonard unprotected after what they've seen from him.

1139
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: Not that they anticipate him playing at any point this year,

1140
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 1: but they don't want to. But but somebody else could

1141
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:52,920
Speaker 1: and so therefore, if they like him, they have to

1142
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:56,160
Speaker 1: utilize a roster spot for him in particular because and

1143
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 1: this is where I'm going with this, Steven, and then

1144
00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 1: I want you, Stephen Holder of ESPN dot com, to

1145
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: tell me if I'm way off base the possibility that

1146
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:07,240
Speaker 1: if they think Riley Leonard could be a guy that

1147
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 1: could play a two to three game relief role for

1148
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,760
Speaker 1: them at the backup spot, and they say, you know what,

1149
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 1: at that point, our years is probably over with any way.

1150
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:17,480
Speaker 1: If we're having to go to that, then that allows

1151
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 1: them to make an in season trade of Anthony Richardson

1152
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 1: if they think that that's where that relationship stands. Now,

1153
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 1: I want you to tell me if I'm being way

1154
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 1: too Freudian.

1155
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 9: So I mean, in theory, yes, that is what you

1156
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:36,240
Speaker 9: laid out is accurate in theory. Yes, I do think

1157
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 9: I'll start with this. I do think they are going

1158
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,120
Speaker 9: to keep him on the fifty three man roster and

1159
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 9: he being right, and really that just Riley Leonard correct

1160
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 9: And that boils down to you know, you drafted him,

1161
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,320
Speaker 9: you see some things in him that you like. He

1162
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 9: is not ready to play in my opinion, and I

1163
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,880
Speaker 9: don't think the Colts district. I don't think he's ready

1164
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:59,040
Speaker 9: to play. I saw every training camp practice. I think

1165
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,800
Speaker 9: he's got a lot of rooms still that he needs

1166
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,520
Speaker 9: to grow before you could even think about putting him

1167
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 9: out there. Now, as it relates to the Anthony Richardson

1168
01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 9: part of your question. As we sit here today, the

1169
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 9: odds this is just based on what I know of

1170
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 9: the situation, which is a fair amount. Based on my

1171
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 9: read of the situation right now, I do not think

1172
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 9: he is likely to be traded. I think that is

1173
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 9: very unlikely right now. However, However, a couple of things.

1174
01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:33,720
Speaker 9: We haven't started the season. We have not seen Daniel

1175
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:37,440
Speaker 9: Jones in regular season action. At minimum, you'd want to

1176
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 9: see how it's going with Daniel Jones, Okay, because the

1177
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:41,520
Speaker 9: fact is.

1178
01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:42,640
Speaker 1: We still look.

1179
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,160
Speaker 9: I know Shane Steichen is very optimistic about this, and

1180
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 9: that's great. I love that for him. Okay, but this

1181
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 9: is still Daniel Jones, all right. This guy has had

1182
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 9: a couple of really terrible seasons the last two years, awful,

1183
01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,080
Speaker 9: and there are mitigating factors. I am not going to

1184
01:00:59,440 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 9: dismiss that.

1185
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:01,240
Speaker 1: For sure.

1186
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 9: The Giants have a lot of problems, but Daniel Jones

1187
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:06,720
Speaker 9: was not good and that's just a fact. So they

1188
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 9: just see what he looks like and see if this

1189
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 9: is actually viable and workable, and then they know whether

1190
01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 9: this is even something that they should even consider. The

1191
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:19,120
Speaker 9: other thing is there is a recognition inside the organization

1192
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 9: that Daniel Jones too has some injury history, nothing to

1193
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 9: the extent of Anthony Richardson, but he does have some

1194
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:29,520
Speaker 9: injury history and has missed games most seasons in his career,

1195
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:32,600
Speaker 9: so that's something they are keeping top of mind as well.

1196
01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:34,360
Speaker 9: So I don't see him being moved right now, or

1197
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,040
Speaker 9: at least they desire to move him, unless things just

1198
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 9: got nasty there and devolved. And I don't think we're

1199
01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 9: there yet. I mentioned this yesterday, Steven. I get the

1200
01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 9: impression when it comes to Anthony Richardson that the Colts

1201
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 9: are hesitant to even move on from him, not because

1202
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,840
Speaker 9: they believe that he could still be a good player

1203
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 9: for them, but because they're afraid he would be a

1204
01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 9: good player elsewhere. Well, it's always a bad look. I

1205
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 9: can say that, I don't. I really think it's a

1206
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 9: couple of things. Number One, they do like Anthony Richardson,

1207
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 9: but there's also this competing reality here which is developing

1208
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:22,400
Speaker 9: Anthony Richardson. It takes time, and I don't think they

1209
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 9: believe they have time. It's very clear. And then frankly,

1210
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:32,160
Speaker 9: it's very clear to me that Anthony Richardson's agent, who

1211
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,880
Speaker 9: I've talked to obviously at length. I wrote a story

1212
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 9: with his comments last week. My impression from talking to

1213
01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:41,160
Speaker 9: him is that he thinks that Shane Steiken's mind was

1214
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 9: made up a long time ago, and I don't think

1215
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 9: that's a crazy theory.

1216
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:46,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree with that.

1217
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 9: I actually, I'm gonna say this, I haven't said this publicly.

1218
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:52,560
Speaker 9: I kind of agree with him.

1219
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 4: I do.

1220
01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 9: I'm not saying that the competition was a sham, but

1221
01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:00,959
Speaker 9: I think you obviously have a preconceived notion of where

1222
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 9: you think you're going with a decision right when you're

1223
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 9: weighing two options. And I think he was leaning toward

1224
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:09,960
Speaker 9: Daniel Jones heavily the entire time. And I didn't necessarily

1225
01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:13,680
Speaker 9: have clarity on that until recently, But there were certain

1226
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:17,440
Speaker 9: statements in certain conversations that I've had in the past

1227
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,640
Speaker 9: that now when I think about them through this current lens,

1228
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:22,959
Speaker 9: I got clarity on that. Does that make sense?

1229
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I.

1230
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:27,960
Speaker 9: Believe that, I really do believe that he was heavily

1231
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 9: leaning toward Daniel Jones the whole time. Now, me to

1232
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:32,560
Speaker 9: wrap it up, what I was going to say about

1233
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 9: Anthony is that, yeah, they believed in him, and they

1234
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:40,160
Speaker 9: drafted him they believe there's something there, but I just

1235
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:43,960
Speaker 9: don't know that. They still don't have any quarterback clarity

1236
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 9: beyond this season, and that's the bottom line. And I

1237
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,040
Speaker 9: don't know. I don't know that. I believe Anthony Richardson

1238
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,320
Speaker 9: is going to be their quarterback in twenty twenty six,

1239
01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 9: but they don't have one. So I mean, I guess

1240
01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:56,760
Speaker 9: it's just as likely as anything else, right, So I

1241
01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:59,440
Speaker 9: don't know. I just don't think they have any security

1242
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:02,440
Speaker 9: at that position, so they're reluctant to just completely close

1243
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 9: the door.

1244
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 1: Stephen, Is it unfair of me to say this when

1245
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 1: it comes to Richardson for example? Okay, it is my belief,

1246
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:12,840
Speaker 1: and I have nothing to base this on. I want

1247
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 1: to make it emphatically clear. This is simply me reading

1248
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 1: tea leaves and just my belief, Okay, just my gut instinct.

1249
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: My instinct tells me that internally at the top brass

1250
01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:28,600
Speaker 1: that they're over it with Anthony Richardson, not as a person,

1251
01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:30,280
Speaker 1: not as a kid, not as a guy, not as

1252
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 1: a young man, and just as a quarterback. That they're like, yeah,

1253
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:36,320
Speaker 1: we've given we can't wait any longer. And they've moved

1254
01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:39,080
Speaker 1: on from that and Shane Steiken is one that I

1255
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 1: think is the spearhead of that because if you go

1256
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 1: back and you look, it's like the sixth sense. You

1257
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:46,480
Speaker 1: go back and you look at it, and you go,

1258
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: how do we not see this coming? Because he's basically

1259
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,080
Speaker 1: been telling us this for a while. Now. With all

1260
01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:55,720
Speaker 1: of that said, I agree with you with Daniel Jones

1261
01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 1: and barring a miracle, even if Daniel Jones is Sam

1262
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 1: Darnold and all of a sudden they have this season

1263
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 1: where they go eleven and six and they get into

1264
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:03,880
Speaker 1: the playoffs and then they get beat thirty one to

1265
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:08,760
Speaker 1: nine to the Cincinnati Bengals, And okay, great. Having said

1266
01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:12,960
Speaker 1: all of that, when I look at just the overall

1267
01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 1: the change in ownership the quarterback, if it doesn't work out,

1268
01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 1: I wonder if that is not actually, if all of

1269
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 1: this is not just the seed that they decide to water,

1270
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:30,400
Speaker 1: that is a complete overhaul of all aspects of the

1271
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:35,040
Speaker 1: franchise next year and a complete start over. Am I

1272
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:39,120
Speaker 1: like chicken little here? Well, well, this.

1273
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:45,480
Speaker 9: Is what I can agree with. If you are Carly ERSA.

1274
01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:50,440
Speaker 9: Gordon and you are looking at Chris Ballard's miscalculations at

1275
01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:54,800
Speaker 9: quarterback and then you are looking at San Steichen who

1276
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:59,120
Speaker 9: pounded his fists for Anthony Richardson. Okay, and two years

1277
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,920
Speaker 9: later it's like going to pay Daniel freaking Jones.

1278
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 4: Okay, you have you have a very firm, firm leg

1279
01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 4: to stand on if next year you say, I'm not

1280
01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 4: letting you guys get anywhere near a quarterback decision, right,

1281
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:20,320
Speaker 4: I mean, that is a very prudent position that she

1282
01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:23,840
Speaker 4: could take, and what who.

1283
01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 9: Could argue with her. I'm not saying it's the right

1284
01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:29,280
Speaker 9: or wrong decision. I'm just saying that's if that's what

1285
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:33,240
Speaker 9: she decides. I mean, what case can you make, you know,

1286
01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 9: to argue that she's wrong. That's what I'd say. So

1287
01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:40,800
Speaker 9: So I think everybody in the organization understands that torobably

1288
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 9: up to and including the two men were talking about

1289
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 9: Shane Stocking and Chris Ballard. So they got to figure

1290
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,200
Speaker 9: something out, and they've got to show some some positive

1291
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:54,000
Speaker 9: trajectory at that position here and change the conversation and

1292
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:57,120
Speaker 9: change the tide, you know, turn the tide at quarterback,

1293
01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 9: because right now it's all bad. It's all bad. I

1294
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 9: just can't keep doing this.

1295
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 1: By the way, and we will include Stephen for this

1296
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:07,120
Speaker 1: news Eddie, the breaking news sounder, Please if you could

1297
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,280
Speaker 1: this just Dan a few minutes ago from Steven's colleague

1298
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:17,720
Speaker 1: at ESPN, Adam Schefter. Even though he has already won

1299
01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:23,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowls, Travis Kelcey has gotten another ring. He placed

1300
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:26,840
Speaker 1: it on the finger of Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift and

1301
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,880
Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey now officially engaged Steve. And I know you've

1302
01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:31,040
Speaker 1: been waiting for this for a while.

1303
01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:39,000
Speaker 9: Correct this is Is this the biggest transaction Adam's ever broken? Yes, listen,

1304
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 9: I work with Adam very closely, and listen, we could

1305
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:44,160
Speaker 9: have one like a.

1306
01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,040
Speaker 1: Little actually hadn't break it. I think they put it

1307
01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:47,360
Speaker 1: on Instagram, didn't they?

1308
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:48,840
Speaker 5: Oh?

1309
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 1: All right, all right?

1310
01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 9: So I was going to say, like, I've worked breaking

1311
01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:55,600
Speaker 9: news with this guy and you know he's he's insane. Okay,

1312
01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:59,120
Speaker 9: I love Adam, but the guy is maniacal. But anyway,

1313
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:01,600
Speaker 9: I was like, I can't even imagine how he would

1314
01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:03,480
Speaker 9: have been if he broke this one, because you know,

1315
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 9: he doesn't want to get beat on anything. All right, Anyway,

1316
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:11,320
Speaker 9: I digress. That is a big transaction, though, big, big transaction,

1317
01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,480
Speaker 9: Travis skills big Internet, isn't it?

1318
01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:13,920
Speaker 1: What's ed.

1319
01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,880
Speaker 10: It's going to be internet, isn't it. I actually wonder,

1320
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:24,080
Speaker 10: like this is gonna sound crazy? Does that do any

1321
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,080
Speaker 10: kind of like expected? Does it do anything for her?

1322
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:29,320
Speaker 1: And I don't know when I say this, like the

1323
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 1: Swifties are gonna go crazy? Right, does this in any way,

1324
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 1: shape or form impact like kind of her aura or

1325
01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,760
Speaker 1: her trajectory? Because her entire aura, I think is the

1326
01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:42,519
Speaker 1: fact that she's like the girl that has like the

1327
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:45,120
Speaker 1: boyfriends that you know did her wrong and she writes

1328
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:47,280
Speaker 1: songs about it. Whatever else she is a I mean,

1329
01:08:47,360 --> 01:08:49,760
Speaker 1: she is obviously one of the most, if not the

1330
01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:53,559
Speaker 1: most powerful entertainment brands in the world, no question about it.

1331
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:56,760
Speaker 1: But you know, does that does that in any way,

1332
01:08:56,800 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 1: shape or form change the trajectory for either one of them?

1333
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 9: Yet what you're saying, you know, I mean like it

1334
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,200
Speaker 9: And it's always like, all right, take like the hot

1335
01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 9: the hot pop star whoever you know, replace her with

1336
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:14,240
Speaker 9: whoever else? Right, whoevers like the hot pop star with

1337
01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 9: all the guys would love to hook up with? Right

1338
01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:20,880
Speaker 9: if they then hook up with someone like permanently, are

1339
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 9: they less desirable to the to the guys? I don't know,

1340
01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 9: it's not the exact same question, but something I wonder maybe,

1341
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:28,480
Speaker 9: like in the shower.

1342
01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:30,680
Speaker 1: Well, here's here's the thing. And when I say this,

1343
01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:34,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to show my total ignorance about Taylor Swift.

1344
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 1: And I have all the respect in the world for

1345
01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:38,559
Speaker 1: what she does. I mean, she is a billion dollar

1346
01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:40,719
Speaker 1: economic generator for cities.

1347
01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:43,320
Speaker 9: Having boat here, I agree.

1348
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:46,760
Speaker 1: I think part of her relatability to a large part

1349
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:49,559
Speaker 1: of her audience is the fact that she is the

1350
01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:52,600
Speaker 1: girl that never needed the trophy guy, and now she

1351
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 1: has the trophy guy. Right. Does that defy what her

1352
01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:56,560
Speaker 1: brain is?

1353
01:09:57,280 --> 01:10:01,519
Speaker 9: I wonder. I wonder that's a good question. I mean,

1354
01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 9: she might be less inspired in her songwriting now, because

1355
01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:09,240
Speaker 9: from everything I've ever heard about Taylors is that she

1356
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 9: must have had some really DOOVII relationships in the past

1357
01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:17,280
Speaker 9: that inspired some amazing songwritings. So I wonder how that's

1358
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:17,720
Speaker 9: going to work.

1359
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:21,680
Speaker 1: Now, Okay, Steven, we will start finding out the finality

1360
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:24,000
Speaker 1: of the Colts roster. I realize they have until four

1361
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:27,000
Speaker 1: o'clock to basically announce that. If I'm not mistaken, and

1362
01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 1: I told Eddie this, it feels to me like last

1363
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:30,959
Speaker 1: year they were one of the last teams to announce

1364
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:34,839
Speaker 1: their roster. They don't have to necessarily publicize it for right.

1365
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,439
Speaker 9: They have to submit it to the NFL. They can

1366
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 9: tell us two weeks from now if they want to.

1367
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:44,000
Speaker 9: But you know, in theory, yes, so, yeah, they tend

1368
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:46,840
Speaker 9: to wait until the very last minute. That's just kind

1369
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,720
Speaker 9: of what they do, and it is what it is.

1370
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,960
Speaker 1: Will there be any other major surprises yet? Not that

1371
01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 1: there have been major surprises yet, But do you think

1372
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:55,160
Speaker 1: we will hear major surprises?

1373
01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 9: I don't, I really don't. I really think this will

1374
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:03,840
Speaker 9: be one of the smoothest roster cutdowns they've had in

1375
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,160
Speaker 9: recent years. Now, you know, it's still a tough day

1376
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 9: for the guys who get that bad news, of course, right,

1377
01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 9: But I'm just talking about from the perspective of decision making.

1378
01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:14,559
Speaker 9: I don't think this is going to be that tough.

1379
01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:17,519
Speaker 9: They have a lot of carryover from last year. They

1380
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 9: have a lot of veterans who have very defined roles.

1381
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:23,800
Speaker 9: I don't think it's going to be that difficult for

1382
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 9: them for the most part.

1383
01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:29,040
Speaker 1: All right, Stevenolder ESPN dot Com. I realize that you

1384

Speaker 1: Appreciate you not only dealing with the questions but also

1387
01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:39,880
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift conversation always fun.

1388
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 9: Sure, why not? I mean, it's a big day and

1389
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:44,960
Speaker 9: the American history isn't it?

1390
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:47,920
Speaker 1: It is? It is? Hey, congratulations both them, right, I

1391
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:49,599
Speaker 1: got nothing inside of one of them, to be honest

1392
01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 1: with you, you know, congrat.

1393
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:51,200
Speaker 9: Like them both.

1394
01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:54,840
Speaker 1: I like them both, all right, Steven, appreciate it, all right, Cia,

1395
01:11:55,120 --> 01:11:57,439
Speaker 1: Steven Holder joining us on the program, Eddie, your thoughts?

1396
01:11:57,560 --> 01:11:59,240
Speaker 1: You want to chime in on this? Should we get

1397
01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 1: Scott Agnes on the line.

1398
01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 2: Well, we'll have Scott Agnes on the line a half hour.

1399
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:06,640
Speaker 2: I'm sure he's devastated, it's gonna say. But the Taylor Swift.

1400
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:09,560
Speaker 1: Engagement's bad news for me. Why, I'll tell you on

1401
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 1: the other side. Okay, again, when I I'm overly analytical

1402
01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:24,719
Speaker 1: on things sometimes with and this is probably one of those.

1403
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:28,160
Speaker 1: But Eddie, you very coyly said going into the break

1404
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:31,679
Speaker 1: that this news that now we know that Taylor Swift

1405
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:34,760
Speaker 1: and Travis Kelcey are engaged, at least according to all

1406
01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:38,120
Speaker 1: of their social media posts. You said, this puts you

1407
01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:38,760
Speaker 1: in hot water.

1408
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:41,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I saw it and I made I was

1409
01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:42,759
Speaker 2: trying to get your attention, think but I just couldn't

1410
01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 2: get it. We're just deep in conversation with Stephen Holder

1411
01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:48,720
Speaker 2: about this. Uh, So I was waiting. I didn't say

1412
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:50,720
Speaker 2: anything to Olivia because she has she's not a big

1413
01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:53,640
Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey or Taylor Swift fan. But I got a

1414
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:58,479
Speaker 2: text from her and she goes, I have a bone

1415
01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:00,280
Speaker 2: to pick with you, and this is all caps. I'm like,

1416
01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:02,719
Speaker 2: oh boy, what do I do, like not leave.

1417
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,200
Speaker 1: Something out for those that don't know. Olivia is your girlfriend?

1418
01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:07,160
Speaker 1: You guys have been you met where college?

1419
01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:10,160
Speaker 2: In college, we've been together for five years, okay, And

1420
01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:12,960
Speaker 2: so I'm like, oh, what I do this time? And

1421
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:17,479
Speaker 2: then she sends me the engagement post from Instagram. I

1422
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:20,519
Speaker 2: don't know which one whose Instagram this is. This is

1423
01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:25,720
Speaker 2: on Taylor's and she goes, no way, little miss, I

1424
01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:27,720
Speaker 2: can't hold a guy for more than one album got

1425
01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 2: engaged before me. So I'm in hot water, Jake.

1426
01:13:30,439 --> 01:13:37,640
Speaker 1: Okay, there appears to be a threshold that once you

1427
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:41,600
Speaker 1: cross it without getting engaged, but being together for a

1428
01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:43,519
Speaker 1: long time, that then like the pressure goes off.

1429
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:45,920
Speaker 2: Common law, right, is that what that's called.

1430
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:47,640
Speaker 1: I believe common law means that you have to be

1431
01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:50,680
Speaker 1: living in the same residence. Correct, Well, but we're doing that.

1432
01:13:51,360 --> 01:13:54,040
Speaker 1: I understood, But like, I'm not in the common law situation,

1433
01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:57,880
Speaker 1: but you're not the you know what I mean? This

1434
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:01,120
Speaker 1: from your only friend, Alec. I need Eddie to take

1435
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 1: a page out of Travis Kelsey's book and propose so

1436
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:11,360
Speaker 1: I can plan him a bachelor party. So does that

1437
01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:13,840
Speaker 1: mean definitively that Alec is your best man? I guess

1438
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 1: if he's your only friend, he has.

1439
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:17,080
Speaker 2: To be, right, Well, it's either him or my brother Jay.

1440
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 2: I don't know which one that would be.

1441
01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: Okay, I have been a best man, I got it.

1442
01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:27,920
Speaker 1: I think I've been best man six times? Is that right?

1443
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:33,599
Speaker 1: Something like that? I give great toasts and you know,

1444
01:14:33,640 --> 01:14:37,320
Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a fun wedding date. But those days

1445
01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:39,479
Speaker 1: in terms of going to weddings, it's been a while.

1446
01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:45,479
Speaker 1: But here's my question, and I realized when I ask it,

1447
01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:48,760
Speaker 1: I would like somebody to call in right now. That

1448
01:14:48,840 --> 01:14:51,639
Speaker 1: is that is a huge fan of Taylor Swift. Two

1449
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:53,760
Speaker 1: through nine, ten seventy is the telephone number I need

1450
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,559
Speaker 1: a Swifty to call in now? We only have twenty

1451
01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:58,439
Speaker 1: five female listeners. And I'm not saying that all of

1452
01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:01,479
Speaker 1: her fans are females by any stretch. She's a I

1453
01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 1: have nothing against her. It's not my genre of music,

1454
01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:07,880
Speaker 1: but I know what it's like to go to a

1455
01:15:07,960 --> 01:15:13,479
Speaker 1: concert that is just like a force, and Taylor Swift

1456
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:19,479
Speaker 1: is a force. I mean literally, like economically speaking, what

1457
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 1: she does when she goes to these cities. It's remarkable

1458
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:25,400
Speaker 1: what she is able to do. But if somebody is

1459
01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:28,200
Speaker 1: a huge fan of Taylor Swift, my concern is two

1460
01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:31,559
Speaker 1: thor nine ten seventy is the telephone number. I don't

1461
01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:35,040
Speaker 1: want to come off like the guy, you know, the

1462
01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:39,280
Speaker 1: generation above Taylor Swift that has no understanding of her

1463
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 1: and look like somebody that is old man yelling at

1464
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:44,200
Speaker 1: Cloud's sour grape guy. I mean that, in no way,

1465
01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:48,200
Speaker 1: shape or form is what I want to sound like.

1466
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:53,280
Speaker 1: I genuinely am curious from a diehard Taylor Swift fan

1467
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:56,479
Speaker 1: for the question that I want to ask, But I'm

1468
01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:58,240
Speaker 1: afraid that I'm going to sound like an idiot when

1469
01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:00,680
Speaker 1: I ask it. Now, do we have any Swifties that

1470
01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:02,759
Speaker 1: called in at two three nine ten seventy Eddy.

1471
01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:05,120
Speaker 2: Aaron called in. Don't know if Aaron is a Swifty though.

1472
01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:06,240
Speaker 1: Aaron, how are you?

1473
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 4: I'm doing good?

1474
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 1: Jake car are you I'm okay? Are you a big

1475
01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:15,280
Speaker 1: fan of Taylor Swift? I? No, but my wife is okay.

1476
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:18,439
Speaker 1: So here's my question. And Aaron, now let me ask

1477
01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:20,360
Speaker 1: this because your wife is a fan. Did you happen

1478
01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:23,840
Speaker 1: to a company your wife to a concert of Taylor Swift?

1479
01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:26,880
Speaker 4: I did not. I actually wish I would have it

1480
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:28,439
Speaker 4: look like a great show.

1481
01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:31,280
Speaker 1: I totally agree with that, right, I mean, like you clearly,

1482
01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:36,360
Speaker 1: it's like this two hour euphoria right for people. What

1483
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,920
Speaker 1: I want to know is, Aaron, and you're not with

1484
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:39,960
Speaker 1: your wife right now? Are you?

1485
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:40,920
Speaker 10: No?

1486
01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,680
Speaker 1: Okay? I want to know this. Do you think that

1487
01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:46,639
Speaker 1: your wife will be happy for Taylor Swift? Or will

1488
01:16:46,680 --> 01:16:49,880
Speaker 1: she in any way not be envious? That's the wrong

1489
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:52,519
Speaker 1: way of saying it. But does it in any way,

1490
01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 1: shape or form like compromise the branding of Taylor Swift

1491
01:16:56,840 --> 01:17:00,200
Speaker 1: because part of her relatability is the fact that she

1492
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: is not the megastar girl that gets the NFL player.

1493
01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:04,400
Speaker 1: Does that make sense?

1494
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:05,639
Speaker 9: Yeah?

1495
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:07,759
Speaker 5: Well, hopefully no more breakup album?

1496
01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:12,280
Speaker 2: Well, well, can you imagine if they Get Divorced Hall

1497
01:17:12,360 --> 01:17:12,920
Speaker 2: that album?

1498
01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 1: Can you imagine he's got to know that, right, which

1499
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:19,479
Speaker 1: one signed with the Freed up? Right? Okay, so Murphy

1500
01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:23,760
Speaker 1: is next? Right? Is mur Murphy or you are swiftye.

01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,880
Speaker 5: actually met her. She bought lust for a few a

01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:41,639

Speaker 1: You said you met her.

1508
01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:46,640
Speaker 5: Yes, when I was security, you know, I was what

1540
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,400
Speaker 1: It's a great presentation, correct, Is that the best way

1541
01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:02,800
Speaker 1: of saying it?

1542
01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:04,360
Speaker 5: Yes, sir?

Speaker 1: bottom of the ocean now?

1545
01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:08,800
Speaker 6: Right now?

1546
01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:10,519
Speaker 5: I'm at work, man. I kind of dipped off to

1547
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:10,960
Speaker 5: the side.

1548
01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, all right, Well before your bud, I don't

1549
01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:15,720
Speaker 1: wanted to get in trouble here, but so I got

1550
01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:17,800
Speaker 1: one other question for you. And the time, the three

1551
01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:19,840
Speaker 1: or four years that you have been doing security at

1552
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:23,840
Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium, removing Taylor Swift from the equation. Tell

1553
01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:25,720
Speaker 1: me the show that you saw that you have to

1554
01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,639
Speaker 1: admit was the best non tailor Swift division. And then

1555
01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:30,559
Speaker 1: tell me the show that you said to yourself, this

1556
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:32,800
Speaker 1: is horrible and I would be angry if I paid

1557
01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:33,120
Speaker 1: for it.

1558
01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:37,400
Speaker 5: Oh, Man, Well, I can't say, because I haven't been

1559
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:40,479
Speaker 5: to do too many concerts. I was more of helping

1560
01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:44,080
Speaker 5: with the coats. Also, so one of my job with

1561
01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:47,680
Speaker 5: security for the for the cameraman on the field, So

1562
01:19:47,960 --> 01:19:50,240
Speaker 5: majority of my work was working with the coat.

1563
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:53,439
Speaker 1: Okay, well, you could actually probably answer, depending on the game,

1564
01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 1: both answers for the Colts. Right.

1565
01:19:57,080 --> 01:19:58,680
Speaker 5: I got a question for you, Jay, I got one

1566
01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:02,840
Speaker 5: question man, I once did you recognize North Central Panthers

1567
01:20:02,880 --> 01:20:03,639
Speaker 5: get their first win?

1568
01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,599
Speaker 1: You know what? So, Murphy, did you go to North Central?

1569
01:20:08,360 --> 01:20:10,360
Speaker 5: I didn't go to North Central, but my son playing

1570
01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 5: for North Central right now, he can run it back

1571
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:14,599
Speaker 5: to Zia Murphy. Ay Man, he ran for one hundred

1572
01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:16,920
Speaker 5: and eighteen yards, man for eleven carries.

1573
01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:21,519
Speaker 1: Listen, Murphy Murphy, I'm telling you thirty two games streak

1574
01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: is over. New coach, new philosophies, new attitude, new vision,

1575
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:31,400
Speaker 1: and one to zero. After beating buff on Friday, Hailar Panthers,

1576
01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:33,320
Speaker 1: hats up to thee And I saw that doctor White

1577
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 1: was in the building. Loved it about Okay, okay, yep,

1578
01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:41,440
Speaker 1: love it Murphy. Tell your son congratulations.

1579
01:20:41,520 --> 01:20:43,240
Speaker 2: You know what it took take for that losing streak

1580
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:46,760
Speaker 2: to end to get a former your windy guy in there,

1581
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 2: coach Cooper used to be with the Grehounds.

1582
01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:52,320
Speaker 1: Oh really, yes, Uh, he is very highly thought of.

1583
01:20:52,400 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 1: When I was I was at North Central speaking to

1584
01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:58,320
Speaker 1: the students there last year, right after he was hired U,

1585
01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:01,280
Speaker 1: and he had come in and met some of the

1586
01:21:01,320 --> 01:21:03,760
Speaker 1: teachers and everything else. And I think there's a lot

1587
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:04,440
Speaker 1: of optimism.

1588
01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 2: It's very energetic guy, high energy.

1589
01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:10,759
Speaker 1: Did you did you we crossed Pasia? Okay?

1590
01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:12,280
Speaker 2: When I was in college, he was there. Is there

1591
01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:13,439
Speaker 2: a wide receivers coach?

1592
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:15,960
Speaker 1: Now, you did not when you were in college. You

1593
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 1: obviously were a high school baseball player, Eddie. Did you

1594
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:20,200
Speaker 1: partake in any sort of intermeals or any sort of

1595
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:24,080
Speaker 1: sports at U Indy? I did not know none. Do

1596
01:21:24,160 --> 01:21:25,320
Speaker 1: they have intermeals at you Indy?

1597
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:25,640
Speaker 4: They do?

1598
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:31,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, basketball, probably some pickleball now, no, no baseball, right.

1599
01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:33,960
Speaker 2: I think they admit I can't remember for that baseball

1600
01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:37,839
Speaker 2: or not, but I know they had five football and

1601

Speaker 2: I was always the athletic trainer has always won those

1602
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:41,120

Speaker 1: Uh yeah, By the way, my mom is putting the

01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:54,600
Speaker 1: just got yet you know what I mean. I'm telling you.

1606
01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:56,840
Speaker 2: Olivia texted me, by the way and say, oh, I

Speaker 1: as things kind of trickle out. If you will. The

1620
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:50,040
Speaker 1: other big news is that that Taylor Swift Travis Kelcey

01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:52,439
Speaker 1: announcing on social media because that's what you do in

1622
01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:55,439
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five that they are now engaged, and I

1623
01:22:55,520 --> 01:22:58,760
Speaker 1: have questions. And we have twenty five female listeners of

1624
01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:02,000
Speaker 1: this program. Three of the twenty five have managed to

1625
01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:03,840
Speaker 1: call it, and I'm thrilled about that.

1626
01:23:03,880 --> 01:23:06,000
Speaker 2: Wait a second, are we sure I know Colleen for

1627
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:08,559
Speaker 2: sure as a female listener on the program. Have we

1628
01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:11,000
Speaker 2: initiated Meghan and Katie yet?

1629
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:13,439
Speaker 1: I believe Megan's one of the twenty five has called

1630
01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:15,840
Speaker 1: the program before. Meghan leads us off. Megan, have you

1631
01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:16,679
Speaker 1: called the show before?

1632
01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:18,800
Speaker 5: I actually don't.

1633
01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:21,120
Speaker 3: I don't know if I have believe.

1634
01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:21,240
Speaker 6: It or not.

1635
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,200
Speaker 1: Do you think do you consider yourself to be part

1636
01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:26,639
Speaker 1: of the twenty five or you possibly twenty six?

1637
01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 11: I'm definitely part of the twenty five.

1638
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,599
Speaker 1: Okay, so there's only twenty five, is what I'm getting at.

1639
01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:34,400
Speaker 11: You are not like now, you have more than twenty five,

1640
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 11: You have more.

1641
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 1: Than twenty five twenty six? Okay, Meghan, you are or

1642
01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:40,920
Speaker 1: not a swifty I am.

1643
01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:43,320
Speaker 11: I would definitely categorize myself as a.

1644
01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:46,479
Speaker 1: Swifty yes, okay, And I know that it makes me

1645
01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,640
Speaker 1: sound and I'm being serious when I say this. I

1646
01:23:49,680 --> 01:23:51,880
Speaker 1: don't want to sound completely out of touch with the

1647
01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,880
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift phenomenon, because I'm aware of it and I

1648
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 1: can appreciate and respect it while not myself being engrossed

1649
01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:01,160
Speaker 1: in it. But I am curious, if you think, and

1650
01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:06,479
Speaker 1: maybe not for adult women, but for younger girls, does

1651
01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:11,440
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift's relatability or brand in any way become compromised

1652
01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 1: now that she is in a healthy and what hopefully

1653
01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:16,400
Speaker 1: is going to be a permanent relationship.

1654
01:24:18,160 --> 01:24:22,599
Speaker 11: I don't think so. I think she's thirty five. Now,

1655
01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:26,120
Speaker 11: she's growing up, and if anything, it gives young girls

1656
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:28,280
Speaker 11: something to aspire to. You, don't you know?

1657
01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:30,120
Speaker 7: You don't settle early.

1658
01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:34,439
Speaker 11: So I think she's providing some good lessons to the youth.

1659
01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:35,160
Speaker 8: I really do.

1660
01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:41,160
Speaker 1: Should that be my answer when people ask? Now, I mean, obviously, Shannon,

1661
01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:44,120
Speaker 1: I've been together for a long time, but I was

1662
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:46,400
Speaker 1: well when I was close to thirty five when she

1663
01:24:46,439 --> 01:24:48,120
Speaker 1: and I started dating. Should I just say it's because

1664
01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:49,080
Speaker 1: I never settled early?

1665
01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:52,280
Speaker 12: I think you could say that.

1666
01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:52,839
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1667
01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 12: Do you think waiting for the right one?

1668
01:24:56,200 --> 01:24:59,599
Speaker 1: Okay, now, that could get you in trouble, Jake, No, no, no,

1669
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 1: waiting for the right one, and the right one is here.

1670
01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:04,040
Speaker 12: I'm just not we just have not exactly you were.

1671
01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:06,760
Speaker 11: You were waiting for the right one until thirty five

1672
01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 11: you found her.

1673
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:08,120
Speaker 7: You're still with.

1674
01:25:08,120 --> 01:25:11,120
Speaker 1: Her right, okay, but not engaged is what I'm hitting

1675
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 1: at here, Megan. You are also a big Colts fan? Correct?

1676
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:15,320
Speaker 12: Correct?

1677
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,719
Speaker 1: I would like to know this now that Taylor Swift

1678
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:20,599
Speaker 1: is getting a ring, do you think that the Colts

1679
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 1: anytime soon will as well?

1680
01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:23,160
Speaker 13: Oh?

1681
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,320
Speaker 7: I hope, so, I hope.

1682
01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:28,520
Speaker 1: So that sounded less than convinced.

1683
01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:34,519
Speaker 11: Well, it's you know, it's you never know. But it

1684
01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 11: seems like we've got a little ways to go. It

1685
01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,160
Speaker 11: seems like we're in transition here. But we'll wait and

1686
01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:40,639
Speaker 11: see you.

1687
01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:42,440
Speaker 1: So you're not thrilled with Daniel.

1688
01:25:42,200 --> 01:25:44,679
Speaker 12: Jones, I don't, I really.

1689
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:48,160
Speaker 11: I you got to see Game one, I guess, and

1690
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:51,000
Speaker 11: see how things go. You just got to have faith

1691
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:54,240
Speaker 11: in the coaching staff and it's a great ownership. They

1692
01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:57,720
Speaker 11: know what they're doing and hope for the best. But yes,

1693
01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:02,439
Speaker 11: I'm a hopelessly optimistic cold stand Okay, I'm true, all.

1694
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,120
Speaker 1: Right, Megan. We appreciate the call. I want to check

1695
01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:06,880
Speaker 1: in with Katie because you said that Katie is only

1696
01:26:06,880 --> 01:26:09,200
Speaker 1: calling because somebody told her to. I don't think Katie

1697
01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,120
Speaker 1: knows this as a sports talk radio program. Katie. Are

1698
01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:15,880
Speaker 1: you there? I am, Katie. You have no idea what

1699
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:17,760
Speaker 1: you've called. You just called because somebody told you to

1700
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 1: call to talk about Taylor Swift. Is that right?

1701
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:20,400
Speaker 8: Yes?

1702
01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:23,040
Speaker 3: My husband's listening right now, and he gave me a

1703
01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:25,800
Speaker 3: number and said I have to call it immediately and

1704
01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:28,280
Speaker 3: talk about being the Swifty as I can do that

1705
01:26:28,280 --> 01:26:28,840
Speaker 3: as easy.

1706
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:31,920
Speaker 1: Okay, Katie. I hate to ask this because I don't

1707
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:32,960
Speaker 1: want to, you know, I don't want to get in

1708
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:35,240
Speaker 1: trouble here. You never ask a woman her age. I

1709
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:38,160
Speaker 1: realize that. But if you were, for example, filling out

1710
01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:40,679
Speaker 1: an insurance form and it had like the age brackets,

1711
01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:42,799
Speaker 1: you were in? What category?

1712
01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:43,840
Speaker 3: I'm twenty five?

1713
01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:46,360
Speaker 1: Okay, twenty five? Well she's right with okay twenty five

1714
01:26:46,479 --> 01:26:50,519
Speaker 1: O Katye Okay, So Katie, you probably heard what I

1715
01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:53,120
Speaker 1: was just asking. Megan. You have been a Taylor Swift

1716
01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:53,920
Speaker 1: fan for how long?

1717
01:26:56,240 --> 01:27:00,040
Speaker 3: Since thirteen or so? So we're going twelve thirteen years almost.

1718
01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 1: And the thing about her that you most enjoy or

1719
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:04,760
Speaker 1: that you most connect with is what.

1720
01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:09,920
Speaker 3: Okay, I was a big sent of her breakup songs,

1721
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:14,320
Speaker 3: not especially as a teen. Okay, and now I also

1722
01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 3: just recently got married, got engaged, got married, all that stuff.

1723
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:20,120
Speaker 3: So now be able to enjoy her music about being

1724
01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:22,559
Speaker 3: in love while she's awesome in love is very fun.

1725
01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 1: Okay. So this does not in any way shape or

1726
01:27:25,240 --> 01:27:29,679
Speaker 1: form you heard my question like your thoughts on that

1727
01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:33,439
Speaker 1: In terms of I just it feels to me like

1728
01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:37,760
Speaker 1: her career in her songwriting has been so epicentered in

1729
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:42,400
Speaker 1: female empowerment of I don't need the man because I've

1730
01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:44,759
Speaker 1: been through that and I've become stronger as a result

1731
01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:48,479
Speaker 1: of it and etc. Does this compromise that at all?

1732
01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:52,439
Speaker 3: No, because she can still be a strong independent woman

1733
01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:56,080
Speaker 3: that elevates a man as well as elevating herself.

1734
01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,679
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's now kind of where it shifts, correct.

1735
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:02,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it shows that you don't need to be dependent.

1736
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:05,680
Speaker 3: You can still be strong, independent on your own and

1737
01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,360
Speaker 3: also have the growth in the relationship. And the way

1738
01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:11,559
Speaker 3: that he was supporting her on stage her tour, he

1739
01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:14,200
Speaker 3: came out as a guest star on it and supports

1740
01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:15,560
Speaker 3: her in that way, it could show that, Hey, you

1741
01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 3: don't have to diminish yourself. Because he's the NFL superstar.

1742
01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:22,519
Speaker 3: He can also come to your level and show out

1743
01:28:22,600 --> 01:28:25,799
Speaker 3: on a superstar level on your ter own field.

1744
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:28,200
Speaker 1: Just out of curiosity, Katie, can you do me a

1745
01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:30,639
Speaker 1: favor here? We keep a running tab on this show

1746
01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:32,439
Speaker 1: of the number of female listeners we have, and we

1747
01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:34,120
Speaker 1: think we might be at twenty five, but we're not

1748
01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:36,639
Speaker 1: convinced of that. Can you do me a favor when

1749
01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:38,639
Speaker 1: you hang up and turn on your radio to ninety

1750
01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:41,000
Speaker 1: three five or one oh seven five, both of them

1751
01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:44,200
Speaker 1: work FM, and just give us two minutes of listenership

1752
01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:45,720
Speaker 1: so we can go ahead and tabulate you as one

1753
01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:49,400
Speaker 1: of the twenty five. Of course, wait wait, wait twenty

1754
01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,160
Speaker 1: five or twenty six too. Well, here's the thing, I'm

1755
01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:55,720
Speaker 1: not certain it's twenty five. Katie would for sure make

1756
01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:58,640
Speaker 1: us get us to twenty five. So if Katie can

1757
01:28:58,720 --> 01:29:00,680
Speaker 1: just give us a little bit of listship, then we

1758
01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:02,720
Speaker 1: know we get to twenty five. Katie, have you seen

1759
01:29:02,760 --> 01:29:04,599
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift in concert?

1760
01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,160
Speaker 3: I have not, but I've seen the movie of it

1761
01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:07,919
Speaker 3: on Netflix.

1762
01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:09,840
Speaker 1: Did you go and see that at the Imax deal

1763
01:29:09,920 --> 01:29:12,479
Speaker 1: or did you just watch that at home at.

1764
01:29:12,280 --> 01:29:14,880
Speaker 3: Home, and I just found out that my actually do

1765
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:17,240
Speaker 3: send my induction date is going to be the date

1766
01:29:17,320 --> 01:29:22,040
Speaker 3: of her upcoming album release on ten three. Really, I

1767
01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:25,240
Speaker 3: have of our little baby girl at the time that

1768
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:26,400
Speaker 3: a Showgirl comes.

1769
01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 1: Yes, October third, Yes, okay, well and that's child number one, Katie. Yes, well, congratulations, Katie.

1770
01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:36,720
Speaker 1: I certainly I hope for all of you the healthiest

1771
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,760
Speaker 1: and the best in terms of that. So we we

1772
01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:42,519
Speaker 1: thank you, and I am very appreciative. All right, let's

1773
01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:46,080
Speaker 1: round it out with Colleen. Colleen, if you listen, you've

1774
01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:47,920
Speaker 1: called the program before, correct.

1775
01:29:48,360 --> 01:29:51,880
Speaker 7: Yes, Actually, I am your very first female listeners. The

1776
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,559
Speaker 7: very first day on the air, I called in and

1777
01:29:54,640 --> 01:29:58,639
Speaker 7: you made me CFO because I think you said women

1778
01:29:58,720 --> 01:29:59,759
Speaker 7: were good with money.

1779
01:29:59,800 --> 01:30:02,759
Speaker 1: That's correct. Yeah, you're the chief financial officer of the company. Yeah,

1780
01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:06,080
Speaker 1: that's right. And listen, there's no funny business going on

1781
01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:08,800
Speaker 1: with women and the money, right, men, you can't trust.

1782
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:12,439
Speaker 7: I keep it tight, wallet. I'm keeping you on the

1783
01:30:12,479 --> 01:30:13,680
Speaker 7: air and on the up and up.

1784
01:30:14,720 --> 01:30:17,479
Speaker 1: Listen, and Colleen, be honest with yourself. As the chief

1785
01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:22,120
Speaker 1: financial officer. The financial prospects of this company aren't looking

1786
01:30:22,120 --> 01:30:24,240
Speaker 1: any better than the day that you started, and you're

1787
01:30:24,280 --> 01:30:27,400
Speaker 1: actually a little bit surprised that we're still keeping afloat. Right.

1788
01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:32,760
Speaker 7: Well, let's just put it this way. I think your

1789
01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:37,559
Speaker 7: show is doing better than a certain favorite football team

1790
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:41,040
Speaker 7: of mine. So we're doing good.

1791
01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:43,479
Speaker 1: Okay, So let's get to that real quick. With the Colts,

1792
01:30:43,600 --> 01:30:45,840
Speaker 1: your thoughts going into it on the year, it's been

1793
01:30:45,880 --> 01:30:47,559
Speaker 1: a little bit of a rocky road at the quarterback

1794
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:49,519
Speaker 1: position here, I assume you're talking about the Colts with

1795
01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:52,960
Speaker 1: your favorite football team, your thoughts going into it here,

1796
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:57,040
Speaker 1: seventeen games, Colleen, as the CFO of this company, your

1797
01:30:57,080 --> 01:30:58,320
Speaker 1: prediction is a record.

1798
01:30:58,040 --> 01:30:58,320
Speaker 6: Of what.

1799
01:31:00,520 --> 01:31:03,200
Speaker 7: You want my heart prediction, or you want my realistic

1800
01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:04,240
Speaker 7: tradition prediction.

1801
01:31:04,360 --> 01:31:06,880
Speaker 1: What I know is this, Colleen, you became CFO of

1802
01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:11,280
Speaker 1: this company because you are a calculated and all business

1803
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:13,759
Speaker 1: no no heart in it. You can make decisions based

1804
01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:16,519
Speaker 1: on what's what's the reality, not based on the heart.

1805
01:31:16,960 --> 01:31:19,120
Speaker 1: Don't make me compromise you your job. I don't want

1806
01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:20,479
Speaker 1: to have to remove you from your position.

1807
01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:24,320
Speaker 7: Okay. I I think we're going to win nine games, Okay,

1808
01:31:24,439 --> 01:31:27,320
Speaker 7: nine and eight. I really think I think we're going

1809
01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:29,439
Speaker 7: to win nine games. I think our defense is going

1810
01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:35,200
Speaker 7: to be greatly, greatly improved. I think our offense as

1811
01:31:35,360 --> 01:31:38,519
Speaker 7: long as support and I you know, it's so hard

1812
01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:41,840
Speaker 7: to say because I don't know what the quarterback play

1813
01:31:41,880 --> 01:31:44,439
Speaker 7: is going to be. But I am going to assume

1814
01:31:44,520 --> 01:31:47,280
Speaker 7: that we made the right choice with the quarterback, and

1815
01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:51,280
Speaker 7: I think our quarterback play will be improved over last year.

1816
01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:55,479
Speaker 7: And I think it was Megan was that you asked

1817
01:31:55,479 --> 01:31:58,719
Speaker 7: if we were going to get a ring any anytime soon,

1818
01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,679
Speaker 7: like Taylor, did we have a woman in charge now?

1819
01:32:02,880 --> 01:32:05,320
Speaker 7: So I'm convinced we are going to get a ring

1820
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:08,040
Speaker 7: sooner rather than later, because you know, when a woman

1821
01:32:08,120 --> 01:32:11,360
Speaker 7: is in charge, you know, things get done. So I

1822
01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:15,280
Speaker 7: think we're turning the corner and we're heading up the hill.

1823
01:32:15,560 --> 01:32:16,719
Speaker 7: We're going upward.

1824
01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:19,400
Speaker 1: Okay. Yeah, it's like this show. In order to get

1825
01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:20,600
Speaker 1: where you want to go, you've got to have a

1826
01:32:20,640 --> 01:32:23,800
Speaker 1: woman in charge, like Colleen our CFO one of the twenty.

1827
01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:25,120
Speaker 2: Five as goal.

1828
01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:29,479
Speaker 7: It's got to be clear cut. So we're going to

1829
01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,160
Speaker 7: be Okay. This might be a little bit of a

1830
01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:34,800
Speaker 7: rough year, but I still think it's going to be

1831
01:32:34,800 --> 01:32:37,400
Speaker 7: better than last year and the year before and the

1832
01:32:37,479 --> 01:32:39,040
Speaker 7: year before and the year before.

1833
01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,600
Speaker 1: And the problem is Colleen, as we know, and I

1834
01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:44,519
Speaker 1: appreciate the call as always. The problem is, Eddie, you

1835
01:32:44,600 --> 01:32:46,680
Speaker 1: know it too. When you go nine and eight, you

1836
01:32:46,720 --> 01:32:48,679
Speaker 1: find yourself kind of stuck in that vada suck.

1837
01:32:49,680 --> 01:32:51,439
Speaker 2: I got two things here, Jake. So number one, I

1838
01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:53,759
Speaker 2: couldn't remember who I needed to call about your spending

1839
01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:56,320
Speaker 2: with you know, the Elixir, So now I know who

1840
01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:59,040
Speaker 2: to call. He has to approve that purchase for that

1841
01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:03,000
Speaker 2: subscription every year. And number two, Jay texted the station

1842
01:33:03,080 --> 01:33:05,960
Speaker 2: three one seven two three, nineteen seventy and he said,

1843
01:33:05,960 --> 01:33:10,920
Speaker 2: as the kids would say, Jake and Eddie, y'all are cooked, cooked, cooked.

1844
01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:14,000
Speaker 1: Yes see, I don't know the KIDDLINGO. Does that mean

1845
01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:18,439
Speaker 1: that by we're cooked, does that mean in turn in trouble? Yeah?

1846
01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:23,719
Speaker 1: Well speak for yourself right now. My mom's not happy.

1847
01:33:23,720 --> 01:33:26,280
Speaker 1: My mom's on board with Olivia and what all of

1848
01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:28,479
Speaker 1: this means. But I promise you we're going to get

1849
01:33:28,560 --> 01:33:31,360
Speaker 1: back to talking about the Colts. We're going to get

1850
01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:33,320
Speaker 1: back to talking about sports. We're going to get back

1851
01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:35,760
Speaker 1: to talking about the fever. Stephanie White joined us earlier

1852
01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:39,080
Speaker 1: on the program. I asked her point blank about Caitlin

1853
01:33:39,160 --> 01:33:41,920
Speaker 1: Clark's return date, and she for the first time. I

1854
01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:44,720
Speaker 1: think kind of opened that door a little bit and

1855
01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:46,879
Speaker 1: gave us a little bit of insight. We will discuss

1856
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:49,559
Speaker 1: that and probably Taylor Swift as well when Scott Agnes

1857
01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:55,080
Speaker 1: joins us. Two o'clock hours underway in Indianapolis, for that matter,

1858
01:33:55,120 --> 01:33:57,639
Speaker 1: of the two o'clock hours underway everywhere in the Eastern

1859
01:33:57,680 --> 01:34:01,000
Speaker 1: time zone. Good afternoon you. My name is Jake Quarry.

1860
01:34:01,120 --> 01:34:04,280
Speaker 1: Eddie Garrison is the other voice you hear on this program.

1861
01:34:04,320 --> 01:34:07,000
Speaker 1: We call it Querry and Company. Colleen is the CFO

1862
01:34:07,080 --> 01:34:10,479
Speaker 1: of the company we have established. Now that we have

1863
01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:13,000
Speaker 1: twenty five female listeners, Eddie Garrison, do you happen to

1864
01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:20,880
Speaker 1: have the breaking new sounder please? It has pointed out

1865
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:24,040
Speaker 1: to me that because of the fact that Katie is

1866
01:34:25,040 --> 01:34:28,639
Speaker 1: has in utero a baby girl, that could mean female

1867
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:32,160
Speaker 1: listener twenty six, right, do we count that?

1868
01:34:34,160 --> 01:34:36,360
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good question, Jake.

1869
01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:40,519
Speaker 1: As soon as the baby is born, I'm going to

1870
01:34:40,600 --> 01:34:43,080
Speaker 1: request that Katie make sure that there is some good

1871
01:34:43,840 --> 01:34:46,760
Speaker 1: feeding time from twelve until three, bottle time with the

1872
01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:50,280
Speaker 1: radio on and then there you go, buy one, get one.

1873
01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:52,800
Speaker 2: Can we get that on our weddings too? Jake, is

1874
01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:55,759
Speaker 2: anyone out there offering a buy one, get one on weddings.

1875
01:34:55,800 --> 01:34:57,040
Speaker 2: You can be the buy one and I can be

1876
01:34:57,040 --> 01:35:02,479
Speaker 2: the get one. Okay, senilready first, right? Okay, age before beauty,

1877
01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:06,680
Speaker 2: as I say.

1878
01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:08,840
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, okay, I don't think when it comes

1879
01:35:08,880 --> 01:35:11,320
Speaker 1: to if we were to do a buy one, get

1880
01:35:11,400 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 1: one wedding Eddie and the brides themselves, that we would

1881
01:35:14,200 --> 01:35:16,200
Speaker 1: use the term age before beauty, right.

1882
01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:17,639
Speaker 2: I don't think so, not one bit.

1883
01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:20,840
Speaker 1: Joining us down in the program, I'm sure thrilled to

1884
01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:24,600
Speaker 1: be doing so. Scott Agnes, who himself a Scott, is

1885
01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:29,559
Speaker 1: it fair to say you're a swiftye? Do we have

1886
01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:35,320
Speaker 1: Scott Eddie? Well? I thought we did. Hold on. Maybe

1887
01:35:35,400 --> 01:35:38,120
Speaker 1: Scott Agnes just found out about Taylor Swift and his

1888
01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:41,120
Speaker 1: shock and dismay has prohibited him from joining the program.

1889
01:35:41,280 --> 01:35:44,759
Speaker 1: Stephanie White was on earlier and I asked Stephanie White

1890
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:50,200
Speaker 1: point blank about Caitlin Clark, what where things stand? And

1891
01:35:50,240 --> 01:35:53,559
Speaker 1: she said that she would like to see Caitlyn Clark

1892
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:57,880
Speaker 1: practice five times before they have her in a game

1893
01:35:57,960 --> 01:36:02,320
Speaker 1: situation five times Fever and action tonight taking on Seattle.

1894
01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:05,120
Speaker 1: That game is a seven o'clock tip. Eddie will have

1895
01:36:05,240 --> 01:36:09,680
Speaker 1: the pregame at six forty five, and later in the

1896
01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:14,680
Speaker 1: conversation with Stephanie White, I said, okay, so if you

1897
01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:17,280
Speaker 1: said five practices before you would like to see Kateln

1898
01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:18,720
Speaker 1: Clark on the floor. And one of the things that

1899
01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:22,120
Speaker 1: Stephanie White talked about was it wasn't as much about

1900
01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:25,920
Speaker 1: timing for her and other such things as much as

1901
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:30,719
Speaker 1: it was about wanting to see the overall physical endurance

1902
01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:33,760
Speaker 1: that is necessary for Caitlin Clark, and that's why she

1903
01:36:33,840 --> 01:36:37,759
Speaker 1: wants to see her in five practices. So I asked

1904
01:36:37,760 --> 01:36:41,960
Speaker 1: the question of okay, how many practices then has she

1905
01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:44,679
Speaker 1: had to go through, you know, so far? How many

1906
01:36:44,680 --> 01:36:47,759
Speaker 1: practices are under her belt so to speak? And she said,

1907
01:36:47,840 --> 01:36:50,880
Speaker 1: we actually haven't had any real practices. We've had some

1908
01:36:50,920 --> 01:36:53,880
Speaker 1: shoot arounds and some walkthroughs since Kitlin Clark has been

1909
01:36:53,880 --> 01:36:57,680
Speaker 1: on the floor, but we have not undergone practices. So

1910
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:01,439
Speaker 1: you can to do the math there. When you look

1911
01:37:01,439 --> 01:37:03,840
Speaker 1: at their schedule seven games remaining, they're a game over

1912
01:37:03,920 --> 01:37:08,560
Speaker 1: five hundred other fever with Seattle tonight. If it's five practices,

1913
01:37:08,680 --> 01:37:12,760
Speaker 1: then you're looking at even more extended period of time

1914
01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:16,080
Speaker 1: before Caitlin Clark returns. We do have Scott agnesy As

1915
01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:19,960
Speaker 1: returned here Scott before we get into the fever, since

1916
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:22,280
Speaker 1: you are a noted Swifty correct.

1917
01:37:22,600 --> 01:37:25,240
Speaker 14: Yeah, I do enjoy it for sure. So today's news

1918
01:37:25,280 --> 01:37:26,839
Speaker 14: is certainly massive in the community.

1919
01:37:27,400 --> 01:37:33,560
Speaker 1: Okay, you live in a swifty community? Is that right? Okay,

1920
01:37:33,720 --> 01:37:35,799
Speaker 1: I'm going to ask you, and I've gotten the female

1921
01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:38,720
Speaker 1: perspective on this. I'm curious, though you're a fan of

1922
01:37:39,320 --> 01:37:43,760
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, what does this do just in terms of

1923
01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:46,920
Speaker 1: the theme and the messaging of And I'm not saying

1924
01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:51,400
Speaker 1: that any of that is bad, but from my understanding,

1925
01:37:51,479 --> 01:37:57,200
Speaker 1: a large part of Taylor Swift's songwriting and vibe has

1926
01:37:57,280 --> 01:38:02,439
Speaker 1: been relationship based, and notably based in the conversation of

1927
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:06,479
Speaker 1: failed relationships. She now has found the one, presumably and

1928
01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:10,160
Speaker 1: hopefully that in fact sticks. How does that change the

1929
01:38:10,200 --> 01:38:11,519
Speaker 1: branding of Taylor Swift?

1930
01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:16,479
Speaker 14: I love this a legitimate funny question though also with

1931
01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:18,559
Speaker 14: all this, yeah, a lot of it has been absolutely

1932
01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:22,479
Speaker 14: about her relationships and her past and those different things.

1933
01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:26,680
Speaker 14: I'm sure she's an immaculate marketer and an incredible songwriter

1934
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,720
Speaker 14: and then obviously singer performer, so I have no doubt

1935
01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:34,320
Speaker 14: that she'll adjust and hopefully it'll be more favorable things.

1936
01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:35,960
Speaker 14: But I think that's why a lot of young girls

1937
01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:39,479
Speaker 14: especially love her relate to her because they're perhaps going

1938
01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:42,720
Speaker 14: she's singing about things they're going through or about to

1939
01:38:42,760 --> 01:38:43,240
Speaker 14: go through.

1940
01:38:44,320 --> 01:38:48,439
Speaker 1: Okay, so moving on to the feed, I don't disagree Sky.

1941
01:38:48,680 --> 01:38:52,840
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, you know here, here's the thing. Kidding aside, okay,

1942
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:56,439
Speaker 1: as the kids say, I'm going to be real here. Okay.

1943
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:00,840
Speaker 1: There was a I think a bit epiphany for me,

1944
01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:07,240
Speaker 1: Scott happened when twenty five years ago, maybe not that,

1945
01:39:07,320 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 1: but twenty years ago gen Con. Okay. I would see

1946
01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:14,800
Speaker 1: the folks that would come in town for gen Con,

1947
01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:19,680
Speaker 1: and like a lot of jocks, if you want to

1948
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:23,840
Speaker 1: use that term, I would snicker at the people that

1949
01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:27,320
Speaker 1: came in dressed like their favorite Klingon or Darth Vader

1950
01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:30,679
Speaker 1: or whatever walking around downtown and would go to almost

1951
01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:33,160
Speaker 1: gawk at it and like poke fun of it. Okay,

1952
01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:37,000
Speaker 1: And then somebody pointed out to me, they said, you

1953
01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:40,160
Speaker 1: know what, what's the difference between that and the guy

1954
01:39:40,240 --> 01:39:42,040
Speaker 1: that's wearing a Peyton Manning jersey to go to a

1955
01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:45,800
Speaker 1: colts game. And I'm like, that's a very fair point.

1956
01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:47,679
Speaker 1: And then I thought about it, Scott, and I thought,

1957
01:39:48,040 --> 01:39:50,759
Speaker 1: when I go to Clemson games, I wear a pair

1958
01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:55,000
Speaker 1: of orange Oakley sunglasses. I would never wear orange Oakley

1959
01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:58,840
Speaker 1: sunglasses elsewhere, not because they're Oakley's, because they're orange. But

1960
01:39:58,880 --> 01:40:00,600
Speaker 1: I'm doing it while I'm at the Clem game, and

1961
01:40:00,640 --> 01:40:03,200
Speaker 1: I wear a pair of like orange sweatpants that are

1962
01:40:03,280 --> 01:40:06,960
Speaker 1: Clemson sweatpants. I wouldn't do that normally. And then I thought,

1963
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:11,680
Speaker 1: you know what, Clemson is my gen con And who

1964
01:40:11,720 --> 01:40:13,679
Speaker 1: am I to poke fun at other people? You do you?

1965
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:15,639
Speaker 1: We're all adults. You do you if it makes you happy,

1966
01:40:15,680 --> 01:40:19,000
Speaker 1: you do you. And I could laugh or snicker at

1967
01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:22,120
Speaker 1: people that get totally into the energy, the vibe, the

1968
01:40:22,120 --> 01:40:25,080
Speaker 1: euphoria of a Tailor Swift concert. But you know, I

1969
01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:27,439
Speaker 1: went to England and went to those two Oasis shows,

1970
01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:31,040
Speaker 1: and the energy and the positivity and the camaraderie that

1971
01:40:31,120 --> 01:40:33,720
Speaker 1: came with being around all of these other people that

1972
01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:36,599
Speaker 1: shared the same soundtrack of importance in their lives as

1973
01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:39,879
Speaker 1: what it meant to me was cool. And so therefore,

1974
01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:41,920
Speaker 1: when I look at people that go to a Tailor

1975
01:40:41,960 --> 01:40:45,000
Speaker 1: Swift concert, I'm like, who am I to say whether

1976
01:40:45,080 --> 01:40:47,800
Speaker 1: or not that's valid or invalid? Of what brings them joy.

1977
01:40:47,880 --> 01:40:50,880
Speaker 1: So you do you? So I totally understand that. I

1978
01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:54,799
Speaker 1: was just I'm genuinely curious as to what that reaction

1979
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:57,200
Speaker 1: from people is about this personal news of hers.

1980
01:40:58,160 --> 01:41:00,680
Speaker 14: Yeah, and no, I appreciate that entire in that we

1981
01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:04,840
Speaker 14: all have something we're probably obsessed with and you'll go

1982
01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:09,160
Speaker 14: to different levels to either show it or to enjoy it,

1983
01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:11,760
Speaker 14: whether it's traveling to concerts or traveling to games. Me

1984
01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:13,720
Speaker 14: and you both do that, right, traveling for work, all

1985
01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:17,439
Speaker 14: those different things that we enjoy that all come along

1986
01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:21,360
Speaker 14: part of it, for sure. So this it's funny because

1987
01:41:21,400 --> 01:41:23,080
Speaker 14: of the timing too, right at the start of the

1988
01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:26,360
Speaker 14: season and being on a big transaction day for the

1989
01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:27,479
Speaker 14: NFL and everything.

1990
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:28,160
Speaker 1: But I'm with you.

1991
01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:31,679
Speaker 14: As long as whatever someone's obsessed with either brings them passionate,

1992
01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:34,599
Speaker 14: doesn't tear anybody down or it negative good for you,

1993
01:41:34,640 --> 01:41:35,679
Speaker 14: go enjoy it totally.

1994
01:41:35,720 --> 01:41:38,240
Speaker 1: Okay, So let's get to the news about Caitlin Clark

1995
01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:41,679
Speaker 1: and Stephanie White said earlier five practices when you look

1996
01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:44,759
Speaker 1: at their schedule, Scott knowing that now if in fact

1997
01:41:45,160 --> 01:41:48,760
Speaker 1: they would like to see five practices before they can

1998
01:41:48,800 --> 01:41:51,880
Speaker 1: see her on the floor, that to you would lead

1999
01:41:52,080 --> 01:41:54,559
Speaker 1: you to believe that her return could be win. And

2000
01:41:54,720 --> 01:41:57,280
Speaker 1: in addition to that, do you cross over a point

2001
01:41:57,320 --> 01:42:01,200
Speaker 1: where you're like, now it's bet Now it's not as necessary.

2002
01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:06,040
Speaker 14: In terms of the practices or the return in total. Well,

2003
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:09,960
Speaker 14: let's begin being necessary. Let's begin with how long from

2004
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:13,439
Speaker 14: the practb Yeah, from the practice standpoint, I would say

2005
01:42:13,479 --> 01:42:16,479
Speaker 14: you're probably looking at least another week. The thing I

2006
01:42:16,560 --> 01:42:19,519
Speaker 14: wonder with what you reference with Steph is what do

2007
01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:23,599
Speaker 14: you classify officially as a practice. Technically, yesterday was a

2008
01:42:23,640 --> 01:42:26,920
Speaker 14: film day, But if you're Caitlin and the staffers, you

2009
01:42:26,960 --> 01:42:28,800
Speaker 14: can easily get in there and get a workout in

2010
01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,360
Speaker 14: of some course, and you're obviously going to work in

2011
01:42:31,439 --> 01:42:34,040
Speaker 14: some of the new girls as well as you're constantly

2012
01:42:34,080 --> 01:42:37,200
Speaker 14: having to sign players to seven day contracts. But realistically,

2013
01:42:37,600 --> 01:42:40,760
Speaker 14: I'm looking about a week at out. After this road

2014
01:42:40,800 --> 01:42:43,559
Speaker 14: trip that is La Golden State Phoenix, you play a

2015
01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:46,800
Speaker 14: Chicago team that this Fever team have dominated all season long,

2016
01:42:46,840 --> 01:42:49,080
Speaker 14: winning all four games by an average of like twenty

2017
01:42:49,080 --> 01:42:52,160
Speaker 14: five points, a Washington team that is in the thick

2018
01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:55,000
Speaker 14: of the playoff race, and then that last game Minnesota.

2019
01:42:55,160 --> 01:42:57,679
Speaker 14: The Links have already not only clinch, But I mean

2020
01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:00,760
Speaker 14: there are probably on the verge of nailing that number

2021
01:43:00,800 --> 01:43:04,479
Speaker 14: one pick, and so that would be the ultimate meaningless game.

2022
01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:07,280
Speaker 14: From a links standpoint, They're right, there would be a

2023
01:43:07,320 --> 01:43:11,560
Speaker 14: good three games going into potentially the playoff situation.

2024
01:43:11,400 --> 01:43:15,720
Speaker 1: Because at some point do you think and I get it.

2025
01:43:15,720 --> 01:43:18,360
Speaker 1: It's interesting because from a fan perspective and from an

2026
01:43:18,479 --> 01:43:23,920
Speaker 1: organization perspective or two totally different things. Right, making the

2027
01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:26,559
Speaker 1: playoffs is one thing. Feeling a you know that you

2028
01:43:26,600 --> 01:43:29,519
Speaker 1: have a legitimate run in you is another. For example,

2029
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:32,000
Speaker 1: if Caitlin Clark was only available to let's say, play

2030
01:43:32,320 --> 01:43:34,919
Speaker 1: one regular season game that eaks them into the playoffs

2031
01:43:34,960 --> 01:43:37,320
Speaker 1: and then goes into playoffs, do you believe then that

2032
01:43:37,360 --> 01:43:40,120
Speaker 1: they do it if they think that there is anything

2033
01:43:40,200 --> 01:43:41,320
Speaker 1: other than one hundred percent.

2034
01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:44,360
Speaker 14: From a health standpoint, to me, I don't know if

2035
01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:47,320
Speaker 14: one game's worth it. My thing all along is given

2036
01:43:47,479 --> 01:43:49,320
Speaker 14: that she is healthy and able to get through things.

2037
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:52,920
Speaker 14: Certainly I think it is incredibly important for her just

2038
01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:56,479
Speaker 14: individually to come back, especially when you factor in how

2039
01:43:56,520 --> 01:43:59,720
Speaker 14: long the offseason is, and like Tamika Catching's back in

2040
01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:02,479
Speaker 14: the day and all those pros, they go overseas right away,

2041
01:44:02,680 --> 01:44:05,639
Speaker 14: they're going to Turkey and China and somewhere in Europe

2042
01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:09,720
Speaker 14: to play. Caitlin's hasn't done that. She's not doing unrivaled

2043
01:44:10,600 --> 01:44:13,640
Speaker 14: her next action. You're talking like mid May. That is

2044
01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:16,600
Speaker 14: a lot both physically after not playing most of the

2045
01:44:16,640 --> 01:44:19,719
Speaker 14: season and mentally for her girls so young, who loves

2046
01:44:19,720 --> 01:44:23,680
Speaker 14: the game and is fiercely competitive. I think for all

2047
01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:25,639
Speaker 14: of those reasons and more, if she can come back

2048
01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:29,280
Speaker 14: for at least a couple games, it's incredibly important. I'll

2049
01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:33,679
Speaker 14: mention too, my mentality and all this has shifts. Seen

2050
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:36,479
Speaker 14: others go through it. I saw Paul George do that

2051
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:40,160
Speaker 14: in like twenty sixteen, suffer that injury, missed almost the

2052
01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:43,120
Speaker 14: entire season, came back for the final six games, and

2053
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:46,280
Speaker 14: then could go into the offseason not focused on a return,

2054
01:44:46,680 --> 01:44:48,720
Speaker 14: but powering up to the next season. Same thing with

2055
01:44:48,800 --> 01:44:52,439
Speaker 14: TJ McConnell many years later. I suffered like a fractured

2056
01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:55,719
Speaker 14: wrist or thumb, had surgery on it. The team wasn't

2057
01:44:55,720 --> 01:44:58,320
Speaker 14: going anywhere bound for the lottery, and I think he

2058
01:44:58,439 --> 01:45:01,120
Speaker 14: returned for the final ten game as or so in

2059
01:45:01,200 --> 01:45:04,439
Speaker 14: a season that was not playoff implications. But he said

2060
01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:07,760
Speaker 14: that was incredibly important. For him to return from that

2061
01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:10,439
Speaker 14: and so he could go into the offseason feeling healthy

2062
01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:14,839
Speaker 14: and building upon it rather than you know, the lingering

2063
01:45:14,880 --> 01:45:17,040
Speaker 14: of Okay, my return, how am I going to look?

2064
01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:18,720
Speaker 14: How am I going to feel? You could put that

2065
01:45:18,800 --> 01:45:21,439
Speaker 14: behind them. That's why I think it's important for Caitlin

2066
01:45:21,520 --> 01:45:22,360
Speaker 14: to return if she can.

2067
01:45:22,800 --> 01:45:26,519
Speaker 1: Scott, what do you think in terms of you know,

2068
01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:29,000
Speaker 1: we talked to Stephanie White about this earlier, but when

2069
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:32,840
Speaker 1: you look at the backcourt play for the fever and

2070
01:45:32,880 --> 01:45:36,840
Speaker 1: the fact that they've had to almost overhaul their their backcourt, right,

2071
01:45:36,880 --> 01:45:38,720
Speaker 1: I mean, just based on injury, and I think they've

2072
01:45:38,720 --> 01:45:40,400
Speaker 1: got players that have done a good job with that.

2073
01:45:41,439 --> 01:45:44,679
Speaker 1: But you know, Stephanie White was open about the fact

2074
01:45:44,680 --> 01:45:47,439
Speaker 1: that there has been a challenge of trying to maintain

2075
01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:51,200
Speaker 1: the same style of play. Have you noticed any sort

2076
01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:55,800
Speaker 1: of a pace or stylistic difference with Indiana now having

2077
01:45:55,840 --> 01:45:58,519
Speaker 1: to utilize three new guards from the guards that they

2078
01:45:58,520 --> 01:45:59,960
Speaker 1: started the year with. Yeah.

2079
01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:01,680
Speaker 14: Yeah, I think you can just see them playing a

2080
01:46:01,680 --> 01:46:04,200
Speaker 14: little bit more basic offense, a lot more read and

2081
01:46:04,240 --> 01:46:08,840
Speaker 14: react rather than offensive sets. I mean, with Caitlyn out there,

2082
01:46:08,880 --> 01:46:11,280
Speaker 14: you're playing through a Leah Boston, so much more the

2083
01:46:11,280 --> 01:46:13,680
Speaker 14: pick and roll is just killer in there because you

2084
01:46:13,720 --> 01:46:16,600
Speaker 14: sag off Kaitlyn, there's a three, you go off, you

2085
01:46:16,680 --> 01:46:19,680
Speaker 14: double team Caitlyn and Alias slip into the basket for

2086
01:46:19,760 --> 01:46:22,120
Speaker 14: a layup or an easy five footer that she always

2087
01:46:22,439 --> 01:46:26,559
Speaker 14: knocks down. I also think with these newcomers as well,

2088
01:46:26,920 --> 01:46:29,120
Speaker 14: there's bound to be a lot of miscommunication, so you're

2089
01:46:29,160 --> 01:46:32,720
Speaker 14: seeing several opportunities out there where a player maybe was

2090
01:46:32,720 --> 01:46:33,439
Speaker 14: supposed to be there.

2091
01:46:33,439 --> 01:46:34,519
Speaker 12: It's an end of shot clock.

2092
01:46:34,560 --> 01:46:37,439
Speaker 14: I think it slowed down a little bit and it's

2093
01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:41,479
Speaker 14: less organized in a way that you would ordinarily think of,

2094
01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:45,760
Speaker 14: with different play calls and sets and expectations, and much

2095
01:46:45,800 --> 01:46:48,679
Speaker 14: more for them trying to get defensive stops and playing

2096
01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:49,360
Speaker 14: in transition.

2097
01:46:50,320 --> 01:46:52,880
Speaker 1: Scott Agnes is our guest Fieldhouse Files, where you can

2098
01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:56,160
Speaker 1: read his work. Scott, The Pacers had a coaching change

2099
01:46:56,800 --> 01:46:59,360
Speaker 1: over the course of really the end of the week

2100
01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:01,960
Speaker 1: end of the week end. What can you tell us

2101
01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:05,120
Speaker 1: about that? Because initially when I saw that Mike Winer

2102
01:47:05,120 --> 01:47:07,760
Speaker 1: was leaving, I thought that it was because he was

2103
01:47:07,840 --> 01:47:09,800
Speaker 1: interested in a job in New York. It looks like

2104
01:47:09,840 --> 01:47:11,920
Speaker 1: that is not going to be the case. What can

2105
01:47:11,960 --> 01:47:14,560
Speaker 1: you tell us about changes on the bench for Indiana.

2106
01:47:14,800 --> 01:47:15,799
Speaker 12: Yeah, so sudden.

2107
01:47:16,160 --> 01:47:18,599
Speaker 14: You know, less than a month, Jacob before the start

2108
01:47:18,600 --> 01:47:21,360
Speaker 14: of training camp, right, That's not ordinarily where there are

2109
01:47:21,479 --> 01:47:23,920
Speaker 14: changes like this. This is usually done in mid July,

2110
01:47:24,200 --> 01:47:26,519
Speaker 14: so that was a little bit surprising. I saw Mike

2111
01:47:26,560 --> 01:47:28,679
Speaker 14: when we were out for Vegas Summer League in early

2112
01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:31,600
Speaker 14: July as usual, as he was out there with the

2113
01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:34,439
Speaker 14: rest of the coaching staff. He's been with Rick Carlisle

2114
01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:37,280
Speaker 14: since two thousand and eight. We have not gotten any

2115
01:47:37,320 --> 01:47:40,960
Speaker 14: clarity on this. He has not responded to messages at

2116
01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:44,599
Speaker 14: this point, which is unlike him, and so I'm guessing

2117
01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:48,120
Speaker 14: here that he's just taking family time and enjoying it.

2118
01:47:48,120 --> 01:47:50,400
Speaker 14: It was not the easiest last couple of months for him,

2119
01:47:50,400 --> 01:47:52,880
Speaker 14: as he lost his father in the spring. I don't

2120
01:47:52,880 --> 01:47:54,920
Speaker 14: know what kind of factor that may be played in

2121
01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:59,679
Speaker 14: all this, but it's certainly so sudden that it definitely

2122
01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:02,160
Speaker 14: is is not your normal off season change here and

2123
01:48:02,160 --> 01:48:05,639
Speaker 14: now promoting Jim Boylan and then bringing in a familiar

2124
01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:08,840
Speaker 14: face for Rick Carlisle, Johnny Carpenter, who was He spent

2125
01:48:08,920 --> 01:48:10,840
Speaker 14: some time here in the Summer League three years ago

2126
01:48:10,920 --> 01:48:14,880
Speaker 14: with them and spent a majority of his time at

2127
01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:17,320
Speaker 14: the alma mater of Rick and Jenny Boosick at the

2128
01:48:17,360 --> 01:48:20,679
Speaker 14: University of Virginia. But this is a substantial change because

2129
01:48:21,240 --> 01:48:24,479
Speaker 14: he's been Rick's right hand man, Winer has. He's handled

2130
01:48:24,520 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 14: a lot of the offense, a lot of the in game,

2131
01:48:27,920 --> 01:48:32,000
Speaker 14: end of game situations, and a lot of the let's

2132
01:48:32,040 --> 01:48:35,320
Speaker 14: call them changes whenever the referees are emphasizing something or

2133
01:48:36,040 --> 01:48:39,680
Speaker 14: there's a unique way to handle a certain situation, the

2134
01:48:39,760 --> 01:48:41,640
Speaker 14: specialty plays maybe is what I want to call them,

2135
01:48:41,720 --> 01:48:44,240
Speaker 14: or circumstances. Mike was in charge of all that. So

2136
01:48:44,640 --> 01:48:47,240
Speaker 14: this is definitely a substantial loss for a Pacers team

2137
01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:51,080
Speaker 14: that otherwise with other than losing Miles, Turner has great

2138
01:48:51,120 --> 01:48:52,240
Speaker 14: continuity on this roster.

2139
01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:58,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it does. You know, I'm curious in terms of, like,

2140
01:48:58,400 --> 01:49:02,040
Speaker 1: for example, the offensive sets or schemes or areas of

2141
01:49:02,080 --> 01:49:06,200
Speaker 1: assistance do we know yet kind of who who assumes

2142
01:49:06,240 --> 01:49:10,000
Speaker 1: that responsibility. I know who assumes the seat right or

2143
01:49:10,080 --> 01:49:13,120
Speaker 1: you know how the seats are shuffled, but the responsibilities

2144
01:49:13,640 --> 01:49:15,000
Speaker 1: do we know how that will be divvied?

2145
01:49:15,560 --> 01:49:16,160
Speaker 12: Not yet?

2146
01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:18,880
Speaker 14: And that's something that's evolved a great deal with on

2147
01:49:18,920 --> 01:49:21,360
Speaker 14: Carlisle staff over the last several years. It was like

2148
01:49:21,400 --> 01:49:25,160
Speaker 14: three years ago where he specifically went to a coordinator system,

2149
01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:28,400
Speaker 14: and I think it was last year where he specifically

2150
01:49:28,400 --> 01:49:31,280
Speaker 14: said they're going away from a coordinator system. Yet we

2151
01:49:31,320 --> 01:49:34,479
Speaker 14: do know, you know, Winer's involvement offense, we saw Jenny

2152
01:49:34,520 --> 01:49:37,439
Speaker 14: Busick along with Jim Boylan, but primary Jenny at the

2153
01:49:37,439 --> 01:49:39,479
Speaker 14: front of the bench running the defense and getting guys

2154
01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:42,439
Speaker 14: into the right spots. Maybe Lloyd Pierce takes over more.

2155
01:49:42,479 --> 01:49:45,639
Speaker 14: I will say this is such a unique situation too,

2156
01:49:45,840 --> 01:49:48,559
Speaker 14: in that when Tyreese is out there, he's the.

2157
01:49:48,479 --> 01:49:49,639
Speaker 12: One getting them organized.

2158
01:49:49,680 --> 01:49:53,160
Speaker 14: Anyway, it'd be more the coach into game situations or

2159
01:49:53,200 --> 01:49:57,280
Speaker 14: out of bounds plays, after timeouts atos where you're really

2160
01:49:57,320 --> 01:50:01,559
Speaker 14: diagramming and organizing and things like that. But Lloyd Pierce

2161
01:50:01,600 --> 01:50:05,920
Speaker 14: obviously has great responsibility on this staff. He's the lead assistant,

2162
01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:08,120
Speaker 14: is in all the meetings and those sorts of things.

2163
01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:10,639
Speaker 14: But I think that's something we'll have a better idea

2164
01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:12,360
Speaker 14: of at the start of training camp.

2165
01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:16,200
Speaker 1: Scott, you have seen Taylor Swift how many times in concert?

2166
01:50:16,760 --> 01:50:17,240
Speaker 1: Just once?

2167
01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:19,080
Speaker 14: I couldn't get tickets for the life of me the

2168
01:50:19,160 --> 01:50:22,639
Speaker 14: last couple of years. Nope, So just a one time

2169
01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:25,559
Speaker 14: in Indy, right, Yeah, that was at Lucas Oil Stadium,

2170
01:50:25,600 --> 01:50:28,479
Speaker 14: I want to say in twenty seventeen or something like that.

2171
01:50:28,479 --> 01:50:30,519
Speaker 1: Because I hear a lot of people say that that

2172
01:50:31,080 --> 01:50:34,400
Speaker 1: you can get that sometimes like the smart play is

2173
01:50:34,439 --> 01:50:36,439
Speaker 1: to go overseas to see her because the tickets are

2174
01:50:36,479 --> 01:50:38,880
Speaker 1: cheaper and sometimes like even the hotels and everything. Right,

2175
01:50:39,080 --> 01:50:39,519
Speaker 1: I know, I.

2176
01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:41,720
Speaker 12: Learned about that the most from Laura Steele. I think

2177
01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:44,120
Speaker 12: she did that. Didn't she go to like Shaine.

2178
01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:46,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think she went to Madrid maybe, yeah.

2179
01:50:46,040 --> 01:50:47,080
Speaker 12: Yeah, maybe that was it.

2180
01:50:47,400 --> 01:50:50,559
Speaker 14: And in the seats are organized, I've later found out

2181
01:50:51,080 --> 01:50:53,320
Speaker 14: if you purchase a seat on the floor, it's just

2182
01:50:53,560 --> 01:50:55,760
Speaker 14: general admission and so it's all about when you get

2183
01:50:55,760 --> 01:50:57,840
Speaker 14: there and maybe during the show you can go to

2184
01:50:57,880 --> 01:51:00,360
Speaker 14: one side to then the other and things like that.

2185
01:51:00,680 --> 01:51:02,799
Speaker 14: And the prices were like a fifth of the cost.

2186
01:51:03,280 --> 01:51:05,000
Speaker 14: So I would have absolutely done that if I knew

2187
01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:06,960
Speaker 14: in time. That sounds like a great excuse.

2188
01:51:07,080 --> 01:51:09,559
Speaker 1: So when, as I've mentioned before on this program, when

2189
01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:11,880
Speaker 1: I went and saw a concert in England and listen,

2190
01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:15,360
Speaker 1: I'm extremely fortunate and grateful to have been able to

2191
01:51:15,400 --> 01:51:17,479
Speaker 1: do that. I mean, I'm not, by any stretch of

2192
01:51:17,479 --> 01:51:19,640
Speaker 1: the imagination pretending that's something that people are just like,

2193
01:51:19,720 --> 01:51:22,080
Speaker 1: let's just go, you know what I mean. My cousin

2194
01:51:22,360 --> 01:51:25,160
Speaker 1: and I went and it was his kind of vision

2195
01:51:25,240 --> 01:51:27,559
Speaker 1: and I will forever be grateful. But one of the

2196
01:51:27,600 --> 01:51:30,640
Speaker 1: things I learned in outdoor concert venues in England is

2197
01:51:30,680 --> 01:51:33,479
Speaker 1: that people like to throw urine all over the place.

2198
01:51:33,520 --> 01:51:34,840
Speaker 1: Now do you think that would take place in the

2199
01:51:34,840 --> 01:51:37,439
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift concert over there? No?

2200
01:51:37,560 --> 01:51:39,160
Speaker 12: I don't, nor have I ever heard of that?

2201
01:51:39,240 --> 01:51:42,479
Speaker 1: Are you serious? Oh yeah, So here's the thing. I

2202
01:51:42,560 --> 01:51:46,599
Speaker 1: mentioned this before, but it's worth revisiting. So I think

2203
01:51:46,720 --> 01:51:51,719
Speaker 1: this comes from British soccer culture, but an outdoor concert.

2204
01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,360
Speaker 1: So this concert that I went to was they said

2205
01:51:54,400 --> 01:51:57,080
Speaker 1: eighty thousand. I think it was more like one hundred thousand.

2206
01:51:57,479 --> 01:52:01,320
Speaker 1: If the NFL draft consensus was surveying, it was one

2207
01:52:01,360 --> 01:52:02,240
Speaker 1: point six million.

2208
01:52:02,960 --> 01:52:04,800
Speaker 12: But I'd love that annual bit.

2209
01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 1: That's right. So when you get a group of guys

2210
01:52:09,160 --> 01:52:12,080
Speaker 1: that go to a concert or gals, I mean a

2211
01:52:12,120 --> 01:52:13,680
Speaker 1: group of people that would go to a concert in

2212
01:52:13,720 --> 01:52:16,599
Speaker 1: England or a soccer match if it's outdoors, you get

2213
01:52:16,600 --> 01:52:20,000
Speaker 1: somebody that's the beer runner, because like you're in this compact,

2214
01:52:20,120 --> 01:52:24,800
Speaker 1: you know, fish bowl area, And so they go and

2215
01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:27,400
Speaker 1: they bring back, you know things of all the draft beers,

2216
01:52:27,479 --> 01:52:29,840
Speaker 1: and so you double fish your beers I mean, or

2217
01:52:29,840 --> 01:52:32,880
Speaker 1: for that matter, water whatever you're consuming liquid wise, but

2218
01:52:32,960 --> 01:52:36,400
Speaker 1: I mean mostly beer is the culprit here. And then

2219
01:52:37,320 --> 01:52:40,160
Speaker 1: if it comes time to use the restroom, it's really

2220
01:52:40,160 --> 01:52:42,400
Speaker 1: difficult to a get through the crowd and then be

2221
01:52:42,520 --> 01:52:45,439
Speaker 1: find your way back to where your group is. So

2222
01:52:45,560 --> 01:52:48,240
Speaker 1: you use the cups. And then once your favorite song

2223
01:52:48,320 --> 01:52:50,640
Speaker 1: comes on, or a song where you're just caught up

2224
01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:53,479
Speaker 1: in jubilation, you just hoist that bad Boys high in

2225
01:52:53,479 --> 01:52:56,160
Speaker 1: the air as you can. And this is what I learned.

2226
01:52:56,960 --> 01:52:58,519
Speaker 1: This is why if you're going to a concert and

2227
01:52:58,920 --> 01:53:01,760
Speaker 1: I reckon co in, Oh no, that's only like the

2228
01:53:01,760 --> 01:53:04,839
Speaker 1: front forty percent of the crowd. So the other sixty

2229
01:53:04,880 --> 01:53:08,200
Speaker 1: percent are fuddy dutties like me in the back, looking

2230
01:53:08,280 --> 01:53:10,200
Speaker 1: like my cousin and I must have looked at each

2231
01:53:10,200 --> 01:53:13,280
Speaker 1: other and just broke out and laughter like a hundred times.

2232
01:53:13,280 --> 01:53:18,680
Speaker 1: By just moisture and cups flying everywhere crazy. I'm not

2233
01:53:18,720 --> 01:53:19,880
Speaker 1: even sure what to say to that.

2234
01:53:19,920 --> 01:53:21,720
Speaker 14: I have no interest in that, but I did have

2235
01:53:21,760 --> 01:53:24,240
Speaker 14: interest in going over to those those concerts. I mean

2236
01:53:24,680 --> 01:53:27,000
Speaker 14: it was Taylor I think would be phenomenal.

2237
01:53:28,360 --> 01:53:30,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think Taylor Swift fans are doing that.

2238
01:53:30,280 --> 01:53:34,560
Speaker 1: Per Se. What upcoming do you have working in Fieldhouse files?

2239
01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:38,240
Speaker 14: Yeah, so we had Tyrese Haliburton back in town over

2240
01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:40,559
Speaker 14: the weekend, so that was great to talk with him

2241
01:53:40,560 --> 01:53:42,559
Speaker 14: and also been going to work on a feature. I

2242
01:53:42,560 --> 01:53:46,519
Speaker 14: asked Caitlin about rehabbing and being there right sidestep with

2243
01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:48,439
Speaker 14: with Haliburton, and then I was able to ask him

2244
01:53:48,439 --> 01:53:48,840
Speaker 14: about it.

2245
01:53:48,880 --> 01:53:52,559
Speaker 12: So it's remarkable, Jake, how this out of boot.

2246
01:53:52,680 --> 01:53:56,040
Speaker 14: Correct, he does not have to be in at full time,

2247
01:53:56,080 --> 01:53:59,360
Speaker 14: but for example, during his camp on was Saturday, that's

2248
01:53:59,400 --> 01:54:02,679
Speaker 14: how he was getting it around. He can go and shoose,

2249
01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:05,439
Speaker 14: but not full time. He's off the scooter is the

2250
01:54:05,439 --> 01:54:09,160
Speaker 14: main development, but he is still in a boot and such.

2251
01:54:09,200 --> 01:54:11,680
Speaker 14: But those two have been rehabbing essentially together in the

2252
01:54:11,680 --> 01:54:14,280
Speaker 14: weight room together, and so I think that's a unique

2253
01:54:14,280 --> 01:54:16,760
Speaker 14: story about how high everybody in this town was and

2254
01:54:16,840 --> 01:54:19,800
Speaker 14: things were going. And now the two biggest stars are

2255
01:54:20,200 --> 01:54:22,120
Speaker 14: rehabbing and doing so somewhat together.

2256
01:54:22,360 --> 01:54:24,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy stuff for sure. All right, Scott, appreciate

2257
01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:27,800
Speaker 1: the time as always, absolutely, thank you, Jake. We will

2258
01:54:27,840 --> 01:54:30,280
Speaker 1: take a look and find out more in terms of

2259
01:54:31,080 --> 01:54:34,400
Speaker 1: cutdowns for the Colts. Obviously they have until four o'clock today.

2260
01:54:35,440 --> 01:54:37,680
Speaker 1: I have not seen since we have been on the

2261
01:54:37,720 --> 01:54:40,320
Speaker 1: air whether or not there are any of those Scott

2262
01:54:40,640 --> 01:54:43,360
Speaker 1: League or excuse me, Eddie league wide that have been

2263
01:54:43,360 --> 01:54:46,320
Speaker 1: announced that have been overall surprises. I mean Isaiah Simmons,

2264
01:54:46,360 --> 01:54:48,440
Speaker 1: who was a top ten pick a couple of years

2265
01:54:48,440 --> 01:54:52,600
Speaker 1: ago in Arizona, didn't work out for him there. He's

2266
01:54:52,640 --> 01:54:56,040
Speaker 1: one of those that and at some point teams one

2267
01:54:56,040 --> 01:55:01,200
Speaker 1: would think are going to get on board with this.

2268
01:55:01,360 --> 01:55:06,000
Speaker 1: And that is I understand falling in love with just

2269
01:55:06,120 --> 01:55:10,560
Speaker 1: overall versatility and athleticism when scouting out players at the

2270
01:55:10,720 --> 01:55:15,040
Speaker 1: NFL level. But at the same time, it's one thing

2271
01:55:15,080 --> 01:55:16,560
Speaker 1: to be an athlete. You still got to be able

2272
01:55:16,600 --> 01:55:19,720
Speaker 1: to play the game. And I just think that there

2273
01:55:19,760 --> 01:55:23,120
Speaker 1: are players that people they get an opportunity because people

2274
01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:25,680
Speaker 1: are like, oh man, this guy just you know, he's

2275
01:55:25,720 --> 01:55:28,040
Speaker 1: an athlete that can cover the cover ground and et cetera,

2276
01:55:28,080 --> 01:55:29,560
Speaker 1: et cetera, and it's like, yeah, but you still got

2277
01:55:29,600 --> 01:55:30,760
Speaker 1: to play the game though, right.

2278
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:34,680
Speaker 2: Let me let me I've been refreshing Joel A. Erickson's

2279
01:55:34,880 --> 01:55:40,120
Speaker 2: Twitter feed religiously. Jake Ulyss has Bentley the fourth no

2280
01:55:40,280 --> 01:55:43,240
Speaker 2: update yet as of right now, he's still on the roster.

2281
01:55:43,400 --> 01:55:45,760
Speaker 13: Yes, it's my understanding, you list says. Now, a lot

2282
01:55:45,800 --> 01:55:49,200
Speaker 13: of people are curious as to what exactly my understanding is.

2283
01:55:49,600 --> 01:55:51,960
Speaker 13: He actually went out himself and today is playing in

2284
01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:55,520
Speaker 13: a Croqueta tournament in the Highlands, and so he's not

2285
01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:57,480
Speaker 13: even worried about whether or not in the phone rings.

2286
01:55:57,520 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 13: He's just gonna let the process fall as it may.

2287
01:56:00,600 --> 01:56:06,320
Speaker 2: Isaiah Land was waived by the Colts today as well.

2288
01:56:06,760 --> 01:56:11,680
Speaker 1: This, by the way, from Cody earlier on the text

2289
01:56:11,720 --> 01:56:16,120
Speaker 1: line when I was talking about defensive backs. Terrible take

2290
01:56:16,160 --> 01:56:20,360
Speaker 1: by Jake Lol. Ballard's first pick was Malie Hooker, Quincy Wilson,

2291
01:56:20,400 --> 01:56:24,840
Speaker 1: Rocky Sen. Brent's Ballard can't evaluate secondary either. I'm just

2292
01:56:24,920 --> 01:56:28,360
Speaker 1: saying a year ago when he said that he needs

2293
01:56:28,440 --> 01:56:31,160
Speaker 1: to see the guys that he has in the defensive

2294
01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:35,160
Speaker 1: backfield before he can make a determination. I thought last

2295
01:56:35,200 --> 01:56:37,040
Speaker 1: year some of those guys, Brent's being one of them,

2296
01:56:37,120 --> 01:56:39,240
Speaker 1: Jalen Jones being one of them. I can appreciate the

2297
01:56:39,280 --> 01:56:41,400
Speaker 1: fact that he said, look, we got to go out

2298
01:56:41,400 --> 01:56:45,280
Speaker 1: here and let these guys play, and I thought that

2299
01:56:45,360 --> 01:56:50,560
Speaker 1: was in retrospect. That was the right approach in retrospect,

2300
01:56:50,600 --> 01:56:53,480
Speaker 1: the right approach. Hey, Jake, this is Marcia. I'd like

2301
01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:55,920
Speaker 1: to add to your female listeners. Tried calling but couldn't

2302
01:56:55,920 --> 01:57:00,360
Speaker 1: get through. Marsha. Marsha, Marsha, we love it. Thank you.

2303
01:57:00,360 --> 01:57:04,560
Speaker 1: You are officially Marcia female listener number twenty six. Eddie,

2304
01:57:04,560 --> 01:57:11,040
Speaker 1: do you haven't have the breaking newshounder by chance? This

2305
01:57:11,240 --> 01:57:14,920
Speaker 1: just jan We now have twenty six female listeners. Love

2306
01:57:15,000 --> 01:57:19,600
Speaker 1: it so Marsha, welcome on board. We're happy to have you.

2307
01:57:19,840 --> 01:57:22,960
Speaker 1: Marsha maybe is a longtime listener. I'm not sure I

2308
01:57:23,000 --> 01:57:25,760
Speaker 1: do agree with this. That came from Pennsylvania. Anthony Richardson

2309
01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:28,000
Speaker 1: is done in this city. It's time to march for Arch.

2310
01:57:28,440 --> 01:57:33,880
Speaker 1: Only problem with that is number one, and I will

2311
01:57:34,240 --> 01:57:43,320
Speaker 1: stand by this. I don't know that arch Manning would

2312
01:57:43,360 --> 01:57:48,200
Speaker 1: come here. I've said it before and I'll say it again.

2313
01:57:48,280 --> 01:57:50,280
Speaker 1: I don't know for certain that arch Manning would come here.

2314
01:57:50,360 --> 01:57:51,840
Speaker 1: But more so, I don't think the CULTU are going

2315
01:57:51,880 --> 01:57:53,640
Speaker 1: to be in that position. Number One, I think arch

2316
01:57:53,680 --> 01:57:55,320
Speaker 1: Manning is going to go back to Texas next year.

2317
01:57:56,120 --> 01:57:59,280
Speaker 1: Would not surprise me at all. Number Two, we haven't

2318
01:57:59,280 --> 01:58:01,720
Speaker 1: even seen arch man play a full season, and number

2319
01:58:01,840 --> 01:58:06,240
Speaker 1: you know, we have no idea. The pedigree would indicate

2320
01:58:06,320 --> 01:58:08,000
Speaker 1: that he's going to be one heck of a player,

2321
01:58:08,000 --> 01:58:12,160
Speaker 1: but we don't know that for certain. And Number three

2322
01:58:12,320 --> 01:58:14,760
Speaker 1: you're going to have to be if he does turn

2323
01:58:14,800 --> 01:58:17,200
Speaker 1: out to be that guy that is worth like the

2324
01:58:17,240 --> 01:58:21,120
Speaker 1: March for Arch, then there are other franchises you're going

2325
01:58:21,160 --> 01:58:22,680
Speaker 1: to be contending with that are all going to be

2326
01:58:22,720 --> 01:58:26,680
Speaker 1: in that same situation and wanting to take him at

2327
01:58:26,680 --> 01:58:31,480
Speaker 1: the top of the draft. I just hope this listen

2328
01:58:31,760 --> 01:58:38,200
Speaker 1: when it comes to Arch Manning. I hope by all

2329
01:58:38,200 --> 01:58:40,600
Speaker 1: account that he is a wonderful player. I don't have

2330
01:58:40,640 --> 01:58:44,200
Speaker 1: any reasonab believe he's anything other than I mean, his grandfather,

2331
01:58:44,640 --> 01:58:47,680
Speaker 1: Archie Manning, is one of the true gentlemen to ever

2332
01:58:47,680 --> 01:58:53,040
Speaker 1: play the game. And I remember vividly. I do not

2333
01:58:53,200 --> 01:58:56,600
Speaker 1: know Archie Manning well, disingenuous to say that I do,

2334
01:58:56,680 --> 01:58:59,440
Speaker 1: but I've been around him a fair amount of times,

2335
01:58:59,520 --> 01:59:01,760
Speaker 1: just from his time when Peyton Manning was here for

2336
01:59:01,800 --> 01:59:07,320
Speaker 1: so long, and I recall once I was working a

2337
01:59:07,400 --> 01:59:09,520
Speaker 1: golf outing. There was a golf outing and I don't

2338
01:59:09,560 --> 01:59:11,600
Speaker 1: remember who it was or for what it was for,

2339
01:59:11,640 --> 01:59:13,440
Speaker 1: but I was working at Channel six at the time

2340
01:59:14,000 --> 01:59:16,320
Speaker 1: and went out to cover this golf outing, and we

2341
01:59:16,400 --> 01:59:18,440
Speaker 1: do what we call a vosat, which is where you

2342
01:59:18,440 --> 01:59:20,720
Speaker 1: get a voiceover and then a sound on tape is

2343
01:59:20,720 --> 01:59:22,920
Speaker 1: what it's called. You folks have seen this on the

2344
01:59:22,960 --> 01:59:24,840
Speaker 1: news when you're watching the local news and they show

2345
01:59:24,880 --> 01:59:27,480
Speaker 1: you they say earlier today and you see video and

2346
01:59:27,480 --> 01:59:29,640
Speaker 1: then they say afterwards, Archie Manning had this same boom.

2347
01:59:29,640 --> 01:59:31,400
Speaker 1: That's a vosat. So I go out to get a

2348
01:59:31,440 --> 01:59:33,760
Speaker 1: vosat because Archie Manning was in town for this golf outing.

2349
01:59:34,240 --> 01:59:36,760
Speaker 1: So I go out and he's like on whole eighteen

2350
01:59:36,880 --> 01:59:39,880
Speaker 1: or whatever sixteen. It was a shotgun golf tournament, and

2351
01:59:39,960 --> 01:59:45,000
Speaker 1: I'm interviewing him and we had taken a golf cart

2352
01:59:45,080 --> 01:59:47,960
Speaker 1: out to what to find him on the golf course.

2353
01:59:47,960 --> 01:59:53,760
Speaker 1: They knew we were coming. I interview him, and then

2354
01:59:54,080 --> 01:59:57,120
Speaker 1: it just so happened. He needed I can't remember the circumstances,

2355
01:59:57,160 --> 02:00:02,200
Speaker 1: but he needed a ride back to the clubhouse, and

2356
02:00:02,560 --> 02:00:05,040
Speaker 1: he says, I'll just ride with you with you guys,

2357
02:00:05,520 --> 02:00:08,000
Speaker 1: And it was myself and the photog and it might

2358
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:10,480
Speaker 1: have been his partner as well, whoever he's golfing with.

2359
02:00:10,680 --> 02:00:13,080
Speaker 1: So anyway. At any rate, I ended up in a

2360
02:00:13,080 --> 02:00:17,440
Speaker 1: golf cart with Archie Manning for a three minute ride.

2361
02:00:17,480 --> 02:00:20,360
Speaker 1: And during that ride he told me this story that

2362
02:00:20,440 --> 02:00:24,560
Speaker 1: I just thought was so cool when he said, I'll

2363
02:00:24,600 --> 02:00:27,480
Speaker 1: never forget. When I was at old Miss, my mother

2364
02:00:27,520 --> 02:00:31,480
Speaker 1: would write me a letter every week, and every week

2365
02:00:31,720 --> 02:00:34,400
Speaker 1: in the letter, she would close the letter by saying,

2366
02:00:35,880 --> 02:00:39,160
Speaker 1: don't remember, don't forget, to always remember to be kind

2367
02:00:39,320 --> 02:00:41,200
Speaker 1: to people, because the day is going to come where

2368
02:00:41,200 --> 02:00:44,680
Speaker 1: you're no longer Archie Manning. And he said, and she

2369
02:00:44,800 --> 02:00:47,760
Speaker 1: was right, because my playing career came to an end

2370
02:00:48,960 --> 02:00:51,920
Speaker 1: and I was living in New Orleans, and he said,

2371
02:00:51,920 --> 02:00:56,480
Speaker 1: and I was very quickly just becoming another guy that

2372
02:00:56,640 --> 02:00:59,960
Speaker 1: was Archie, the guy that lived in the garden district,

2373
02:01:00,480 --> 02:01:03,320
Speaker 1: as opposed to know the saint's legend and whatever else

2374
02:01:03,960 --> 02:01:06,760
Speaker 1: he said. And then he chuckled, and he said, and

2375
02:01:06,760 --> 02:01:09,840
Speaker 1: then Peyton got to college, and then I became Archie Manning,

2376
02:01:09,840 --> 02:01:12,840
Speaker 1: Peyton's father. But he had such a humility and down

2377
02:01:12,920 --> 02:01:15,080
Speaker 1: to earth nature about him that it led me somewhat

2378
02:01:15,080 --> 02:01:20,200
Speaker 1: to be surprised when Eli Manning spurned the Chargers and said, like, no,

2379
02:01:20,320 --> 02:01:21,960
Speaker 1: I will not sign with you. And I still don't

2380
02:01:21,960 --> 02:01:24,080
Speaker 1: know the exact reason of that. I'm sure it's out there.

2381
02:01:24,600 --> 02:01:28,080
Speaker 1: But then when Eli Manning was here for the Super Bowl,

2382
02:01:28,240 --> 02:01:31,400
Speaker 1: and Archie and Olivia Manning, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning's

2383
02:01:31,400 --> 02:01:34,600
Speaker 1: parents were here, and that was during the uncertainty of

2384
02:01:34,640 --> 02:01:38,920
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning's future in Indianapolis, and in covering that Super

2385
02:01:38,960 --> 02:01:41,760
Speaker 1: Bowl and being on Radio Row and talking to him,

2386
02:01:41,840 --> 02:01:44,960
Speaker 1: then he was very grounded. I'm talking about Archie Manning

2387
02:01:45,720 --> 02:01:47,760
Speaker 1: and just down to earth and matter of fact and

2388
02:01:47,800 --> 02:01:50,760
Speaker 1: realistic about the uncertainty of all of it in terms

2389
02:01:50,800 --> 02:01:54,280
Speaker 1: of his family's history and place in Indianapolis and et cetera.

2390
02:01:54,680 --> 02:01:58,800
Speaker 1: He has never been anything other than a completely humble, appreciative,

2391
02:01:59,440 --> 02:02:03,520
Speaker 1: down to earth gentleman. And you know he is the

2392
02:02:03,560 --> 02:02:08,600
Speaker 1: grandfather obviously of arch Manning. But because of the situation

2393
02:02:08,720 --> 02:02:15,000
Speaker 1: with the Chargers, I understand also the I think Peyton

2394
02:02:15,080 --> 02:02:17,760
Speaker 1: in particular was very hurt by the way things ended here.

2395
02:02:18,600 --> 02:02:20,920
Speaker 1: And I know that Peyton Manning has come back and

2396
02:02:21,000 --> 02:02:24,480
Speaker 1: done all of the things that are necessary when the

2397
02:02:24,480 --> 02:02:27,120
Speaker 1: Colts have asked or wanted him to do so, and

2398
02:02:27,160 --> 02:02:30,280
Speaker 1: fans are appreciative of that, But I just it would

2399
02:02:30,320 --> 02:02:33,120
Speaker 1: not surprise me if arch Manning did not want to

2400
02:02:33,120 --> 02:02:39,240
Speaker 1: play here, I you know what I mean. I don't

2401
02:02:39,240 --> 02:02:41,160
Speaker 1: know that it's just a gut, but I think that

2402
02:02:41,240 --> 02:02:44,520
Speaker 1: there are a million other teams that are gonna want

2403
02:02:44,600 --> 02:02:46,480
Speaker 1: if he is in fact what we think he is

2404
02:02:46,520 --> 02:02:49,080
Speaker 1: going to be. But I hope the best for him

2405
02:02:49,080 --> 02:02:51,520
Speaker 1: at Texas, mostly when they open up, because I hope

2406
02:02:51,520 --> 02:02:53,920
Speaker 1: he wins their opening game by twenty eight or more

2407
02:02:53,960 --> 02:02:56,800
Speaker 1: because they're playing Ohio State and I think Ohio State's

2408
02:02:56,800 --> 02:02:59,080
Speaker 1: still going to end up in the College Football National

2409
02:02:59,160 --> 02:03:01,960
Speaker 1: Championship this year regardless of what happens. But that's talk

2410
02:03:02,080 --> 02:03:04,280
Speaker 1: for a different day. All Right, we will cruise it.

2411
02:03:04,440 --> 02:03:07,360
Speaker 1: We will let you know the latest on what's happening

2412
02:03:07,360 --> 02:03:11,840
Speaker 1: in terms of NFL announcements and potential releases over the

2413
02:03:11,880 --> 02:03:15,520
Speaker 1: next ninety minutes as we return here on Craney Company.

2414
02:03:17,840 --> 02:03:23,080
Speaker 1: So I'm assuming that if you are, Ulyssa, is Bentley

2415
02:03:23,120 --> 02:03:27,040
Speaker 1: the fourth. If you are, I'm trying to think of

2416
02:03:27,120 --> 02:03:30,360
Speaker 1: other players that I mean, I think Riley Leonard's safe,

2417
02:03:30,400 --> 02:03:32,240
Speaker 1: but I'll just throw him in for the sake of it.

2418
02:03:32,600 --> 02:03:37,120
Speaker 1: Yeah it's Jake. See you like, do we have Ulysses

2419
02:03:37,120 --> 02:03:39,360
Speaker 1: Bentley's reaction to my doing the voice for him. By

2420
02:03:39,360 --> 02:03:45,600
Speaker 1: the way, I have to pull it. What do you

2421
02:03:45,640 --> 02:03:50,320
Speaker 1: call it when you get a steak sandwich and there's

2422
02:03:50,360 --> 02:03:52,000
Speaker 1: the juice on the side. What do they call that?

2423
02:03:54,680 --> 02:04:00,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, is azou or something like that? As

2424
02:04:00,320 --> 02:04:03,280
Speaker 1: you as You, by the way, is apparently released a Joe.

2425
02:04:03,320 --> 02:04:06,200
Speaker 1: Oh Joe, that's his name, I know, but it's as

2426
02:04:06,240 --> 02:04:08,520
Speaker 1: you as you. It's a Joe Joe, I know, but

2427
02:04:08,600 --> 02:04:11,960
Speaker 1: I go with a you as You's same spelling out

2428
02:04:12,000 --> 02:04:15,040
Speaker 1: of respect for a Joe Joe. Well, we don't have

2429
02:04:15,120 --> 02:04:20,839
Speaker 1: to say it anymore, right. Uh. He has been waived

2430
02:04:20,960 --> 02:04:26,440
Speaker 1: this according to Joel a Ericson. Isaiah Land waved. According

2431
02:04:26,480 --> 02:04:35,160
Speaker 1: to Joel a Ericson, also Sean McKeon tight end waved.

2432
02:04:35,680 --> 02:04:37,680
Speaker 1: Stop me if any of these are a surprise to you.

2433
02:04:37,720 --> 02:04:43,760
Speaker 1: Defensive lineman Marcus Haines has been waived. Oh no, Landon Parker.

2434
02:04:44,560 --> 02:04:46,120
Speaker 1: He was one of them early on that I was

2435
02:04:46,120 --> 02:04:48,160
Speaker 1: pulling for Landon Parker. I don't think we ever saw

2436
02:04:48,200 --> 02:04:50,400
Speaker 1: Landon Parker step on the field to my knowledge, Uh,

2437
02:04:50,440 --> 02:04:58,360
Speaker 1: Land and Parker has been waved wide receiver. Okay, here

2438
02:04:58,480 --> 02:05:04,120
Speaker 1: is one that is a little bit surprised. If you

2439
02:05:04,200 --> 02:05:09,080
Speaker 1: look at their defensive back room, Eddie, and you look

2440
02:05:09,080 --> 02:05:11,720
Speaker 1: at fringe defensive backs? Are you looking at their roster

2441
02:05:11,800 --> 02:05:14,640
Speaker 1: by chance? On their like the depth chart for their roster,

2442
02:05:15,520 --> 02:05:18,760
Speaker 1: although that may have been what's that? Yes? Who do

2443
02:05:18,840 --> 02:05:22,320
Speaker 1: they have listed in terms of their defensive backs in

2444
02:05:22,360 --> 02:05:28,320
Speaker 1: their corners specifically? So your starters would be Tavarius Ward,

2445
02:05:28,600 --> 02:05:34,520
Speaker 1: Jalen Jones, and Kenny Moore. Backups Xavian Howard, Mackay Blackman

2446
02:05:34,840 --> 02:05:40,400
Speaker 1: and Alex Johnson who was released slash Wave. Hey, how

2447
02:05:40,400 --> 02:05:41,040
Speaker 1: about their name?

2448
02:05:41,320 --> 02:05:45,560
Speaker 2: Juju Brintce you were, well, that would have been Alex

2449
02:05:45,640 --> 02:05:49,040
Speaker 2: Johnson in Chris Lamns, who was on the roster as well.

2450
02:05:49,120 --> 02:05:51,200
Speaker 2: Sammy Womack was waived earlier.

2451
02:05:51,960 --> 02:05:54,480
Speaker 1: Chrys La Mons was getting a lot of time during preseason.

2452
02:05:54,600 --> 02:05:59,000
Speaker 1: Chrys Lamns waived that that surprised me a little bit

2453
02:05:59,000 --> 02:06:03,200
Speaker 1: because he's been there. He's kind of been has he

2454
02:06:03,280 --> 02:06:05,800
Speaker 1: not like a guy that they've given some time to.

2455
02:06:06,480 --> 02:06:11,720
Speaker 1: Coleman Owen released Wesley French. That one surprises me a

2456
02:06:11,760 --> 02:06:14,240
Speaker 1: little bit because he has been a guy that has

2457
02:06:14,280 --> 02:06:20,120
Speaker 1: played on the line for them. They've utilized him in

2458
02:06:20,200 --> 02:06:24,160
Speaker 1: a couple of different ways. But at the same time,

2459
02:06:25,480 --> 02:06:30,440
Speaker 1: Wesley French at the center position because of the fact

2460
02:06:30,440 --> 02:06:32,880
Speaker 1: that Danty Danny Pincher obviously was in front of him.

2461
02:06:32,920 --> 02:06:36,200
Speaker 1: But if you need Penner as an insurance policy anywhere else,

2462
02:06:36,360 --> 02:06:39,480
Speaker 1: French becomes valuable at that spot and has been there

2463
02:06:39,520 --> 02:06:40,040
Speaker 1: in the past.

2464
02:06:40,040 --> 02:06:41,920
Speaker 2: But he has gone at the end of an era, Jake,

2465
02:06:42,000 --> 02:06:42,920
Speaker 2: no more French Fries.

2466
02:06:43,040 --> 02:06:45,840
Speaker 1: That's exactly right. Well, Fries is out too, right, he

2467
02:06:45,920 --> 02:06:48,560
Speaker 1: is with the Minnesota Vikings. That's what I mean. Yep,

2468
02:06:49,920 --> 02:06:51,960
Speaker 1: that's the official end of an era. Once the Fries

2469
02:06:52,000 --> 02:06:53,920
Speaker 1: are gone, Who needs the French? Is that what you're saying?

2470
02:06:54,000 --> 02:06:54,080
Speaker 8: Uh?

2471
02:06:54,160 --> 02:06:56,120
Speaker 1: Huh? Can they get a guy? Was he hoping for

2472
02:06:56,280 --> 02:06:58,720
Speaker 1: somebody whose last name is Toast?

2473
02:06:59,280 --> 02:06:59,600
Speaker 4: Then?

2474
02:07:00,560 --> 02:07:05,240
Speaker 1: The big one also is the fact that Jeelannie Woods

2475
02:07:06,040 --> 02:07:08,080
Speaker 1: is expected to be released. I don't know that that's

2476
02:07:08,120 --> 02:07:12,640
Speaker 1: an overly surprising move with Jelannie Woods. It just you know,

2477
02:07:12,640 --> 02:07:14,240
Speaker 1: Woods is a guy that they it was a third

2478
02:07:14,320 --> 02:07:16,440
Speaker 1: round pick. He was a big tight end. He was

2479
02:07:16,520 --> 02:07:19,880
Speaker 1: kind of in that Moaly Cox mode of like basketball

2480
02:07:19,920 --> 02:07:23,520
Speaker 1: sized tight end, that kind of thing. Had played quarterback

2481
02:07:23,560 --> 02:07:27,720
Speaker 1: in high school, was injured not once but twice, set

2482
02:07:27,720 --> 02:07:30,560
Speaker 1: out two seasons due to injury, and I think they

2483
02:07:30,640 --> 02:07:33,880
Speaker 1: wanted to really give him time an opportunity before they

2484
02:07:33,920 --> 02:07:36,760
Speaker 1: could make full assessment, and now they have been able

2485
02:07:36,800 --> 02:07:39,320
Speaker 1: to make that assessment, and I and clearly decided that

2486
02:07:41,720 --> 02:07:45,000
Speaker 1: just didn't fit in that room because you got Moaly Cox, obviously,

2487
02:07:45,040 --> 02:07:49,080
Speaker 1: Tyler Warren, Drew Ogletree, and Will Mallory, and I think

2488
02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:53,080
Speaker 1: Will Mallory stepped in front of Jelanie Woods in that

2489
02:07:53,120 --> 02:07:56,440
Speaker 1: depth chart, and therefore that's where that decision was made.

2490
02:07:57,080 --> 02:08:00,000
Speaker 1: So more kind of coming out here in the last

2491
02:08:00,080 --> 02:08:03,920
Speaker 1: couple of minutes in regards to those I I just

2492
02:08:04,000 --> 02:08:06,400
Speaker 1: still don't think that there's anybody that's going to jump

2493
02:08:06,400 --> 02:08:08,720
Speaker 1: out and really shock you. We have had that in

2494
02:08:08,760 --> 02:08:10,800
Speaker 1: the past where there are guys that you go, oh,

2495
02:08:10,840 --> 02:08:13,240
Speaker 1: wait a minute, that's that surprises me. But I don't

2496
02:08:13,680 --> 02:08:15,560
Speaker 1: I don't anticipate that that's going to be the case.

2497
02:08:15,560 --> 02:08:17,520
Speaker 2: They're going to have to do something on linebacker Jake

2498
02:08:17,600 --> 02:08:21,120
Speaker 2: because of Jalen Carlis being on IR.

2499
02:08:21,280 --> 02:08:23,440
Speaker 1: So right now have they officially done that yet? There

2500
02:08:23,440 --> 02:08:24,960
Speaker 1: was thought that they were going to put them on

2501
02:08:25,000 --> 02:08:26,440
Speaker 1: IR with intention of return.

2502
02:08:26,560 --> 02:08:30,160
Speaker 2: Obviously, these won't be officially announced until sometime around four

2503
02:08:30,160 --> 02:08:33,080
Speaker 2: o'clock or later, but the expectation is he'll be on

2504
02:08:33,120 --> 02:08:35,320
Speaker 2: the ir with the designation to return. So you're the

2505
02:08:35,360 --> 02:08:37,960
Speaker 2: healthy linebackers right now. For the for the Colts that

2506
02:08:38,000 --> 02:08:40,520
Speaker 2: they have based off the reporting that we've gotten from

2507
02:08:40,600 --> 02:08:43,600
Speaker 2: Joel a Ericson and James Boyd and others, is that

2508
02:08:43,680 --> 02:08:48,840
Speaker 2: it's Cameron mcgron, Zire Franklin and Joe Bachi. Those are

2509
02:08:48,840 --> 02:08:53,120
Speaker 2: the only linebackers on the roster. I could be wrong there,

2510
02:08:53,160 --> 02:08:55,320
Speaker 2: but those are the only three that I believe we're

2511
02:08:55,360 --> 02:08:55,880
Speaker 2: still around.

2512
02:08:56,680 --> 02:08:58,360
Speaker 1: The Other thing, Eddie, that you have to keep in

2513
02:08:58,400 --> 02:09:03,920
Speaker 1: mind is the fact that when you see the fifty

2514
02:09:04,000 --> 02:09:07,680
Speaker 1: three man roster that is submitted to the NFL today

2515
02:09:07,720 --> 02:09:09,600
Speaker 1: at four o'clock, that does not mean that that's the

2516
02:09:09,640 --> 02:09:12,880
Speaker 1: fifty three man roster that you will see opening up

2517
02:09:12,880 --> 02:09:16,920
Speaker 1: on September seventh against the Dolphins, because and I will

2518
02:09:17,320 --> 02:09:20,240
Speaker 1: you know, Steven and I talked about this earlier. I

2519
02:09:20,280 --> 02:09:23,720
Speaker 1: think it's somewhat safe to say or estimate that the

2520
02:09:23,720 --> 02:09:30,960
Speaker 1: bottom three perhaps could be players that are not their

2521
02:09:31,040 --> 02:09:33,280
Speaker 1: name is not being submitted today at four. They are

2522
02:09:33,400 --> 02:09:41,480
Speaker 1: picked up from elsewhere as they cycle through waivers, and

2523
02:09:41,640 --> 02:09:44,680
Speaker 1: therefore then you know, the Colts pick them up, and

2524
02:09:44,720 --> 02:09:49,120
Speaker 1: there's always a player you know, you think about, I'm

2525
02:09:49,160 --> 02:09:57,800
Speaker 1: looking right now, November twenty third at Kansas City, wouldn't

2526
02:09:57,840 --> 02:10:00,000
Speaker 1: it be the most Colts thing ever? If on November

2527
02:10:00,040 --> 02:10:03,360
Speaker 1: number twenty third at Kansas City, Patrick Mahomes, by the way,

2528
02:10:03,480 --> 02:10:06,400
Speaker 1: never beating the Colts. If the Colts go in to

2529
02:10:06,560 --> 02:10:09,680
Speaker 1: Kansas City and I'm not even saying win the game,

2530
02:10:11,280 --> 02:10:15,560
Speaker 1: but shockingly play well and are like right there in

2531
02:10:15,600 --> 02:10:19,360
Speaker 1: the mix with Kansas City, and it's because of some player,

2532
02:10:20,800 --> 02:10:26,640
Speaker 1: like a corner that makes a key interception, or some

2533
02:10:26,760 --> 02:10:29,440
Speaker 1: running back that comes in because Jonathan Taylor's hurt and

2534
02:10:29,720 --> 02:10:32,720
Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's Ulyssa's Bentley, whatever that comes in.

2535
02:10:32,880 --> 02:10:36,240
Speaker 1: That was a fringe fifty three man guy. That's a

2536
02:10:36,320 --> 02:10:38,520
Speaker 1: late sign. And it's like, what a story this is.

2537
02:10:38,600 --> 02:10:40,600
Speaker 1: Here's the guy, you know, Jonathan Williams or you know,

2538
02:10:40,640 --> 02:10:43,640
Speaker 1: one of those players that just Brad Pyatt like comes

2539
02:10:43,640 --> 02:10:46,440
Speaker 1: out of nowhere and makes a play and you're like, yeah,

2540
02:10:46,440 --> 02:10:48,920
Speaker 1: that was a guy that was left for dead by

2541
02:10:50,400 --> 02:10:53,920
Speaker 1: Seattle or Carolina and the Colts picked him up and

2542
02:10:53,960 --> 02:10:57,000
Speaker 1: now here he is. And in mid November, late November,

2543
02:10:57,040 --> 02:10:59,280
Speaker 1: they're going into Kansas City and Arrowhead and a rackets

2544
02:10:59,400 --> 02:11:01,360
Speaker 1: environment and this, this guy steps up and makes place,

2545
02:11:01,680 --> 02:11:04,200
Speaker 1: next man up. You know those kinds of things. I mean,

2546
02:11:04,280 --> 02:11:08,120
Speaker 1: we have seen that before john S. Next, we'll hand

2547
02:11:08,120 --> 02:11:09,760
Speaker 1: it off to him, find out what he's got planned

2548
02:11:09,760 --> 02:11:13,640
Speaker 1: for his big program. As we roll along here Tuesday edition,

2549
02:11:13,800 --> 02:11:20,000
Speaker 1: Quarying Company. I'm telling you, I'm actually kind of nervous

2550
02:11:20,040 --> 02:11:23,120
Speaker 1: for Ulyssa Bentley the fourth. There's no It's been a

2551
02:11:23,160 --> 02:11:25,160
Speaker 1: long time since there's a player that I've more been

2552
02:11:25,240 --> 02:11:26,360
Speaker 1: rooting for to make the roster.

2553
02:11:26,480 --> 02:11:28,520
Speaker 2: Well, Derek Sluquel last year you were read.

2554
02:11:28,400 --> 02:11:30,400
Speaker 1: I know, but that was you know, we kind of

2555
02:11:30,440 --> 02:11:33,920
Speaker 1: had a pretty good idea there, did we not? Right? True?

2556
02:11:35,600 --> 02:11:39,000
Speaker 1: This chair is very loud. Is that translating over the radio?

2557
02:11:40,360 --> 02:11:46,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, translating, Yeah, transferring. The one that does

2558
02:11:46,240 --> 02:11:54,280
Speaker 1: is when you're when you're moving your mic. Really yeah, okay,

2559
02:11:54,320 --> 02:11:56,840
Speaker 1: sorry about that. I won't move my mic anymore, although

2560
02:11:56,880 --> 02:11:59,520
Speaker 1: it helps if I bring it over to a little

2561
02:11:59,520 --> 02:12:06,640
Speaker 1: bit sort of hear you know what I mean. I

2562
02:12:06,760 --> 02:12:15,440
Speaker 1: thought the answer from Stephanie White was very interesting when

2563
02:12:15,440 --> 02:12:18,320
Speaker 1: I asked her about the number of practices that they

2564
02:12:18,360 --> 02:12:22,880
Speaker 1: have had since Caitlin Clark started like kind of you know,

2565
02:12:23,840 --> 02:12:29,120
Speaker 1: putting the shoes back on, so to speak. And the

2566
02:12:29,200 --> 02:12:32,800
Speaker 1: reason I say that she said no life practices for

2567
02:12:32,840 --> 02:12:35,400
Speaker 1: her yet, correct, and she says she wants to see

2568
02:12:35,440 --> 02:12:37,360
Speaker 1: five of them before she gets onto the floor.

2569
02:12:37,440 --> 02:12:37,600
Speaker 9: Yeah.

2570
02:12:37,640 --> 02:12:39,760
Speaker 2: I think that's the first time she's she or anyone

2571
02:12:39,800 --> 02:12:42,879
Speaker 2: who's like publicly stated what the you know, the baseline

2572
02:12:42,920 --> 02:12:44,840
Speaker 2: or the benchmark is that they want to see before

2573
02:12:44,880 --> 02:12:45,440
Speaker 2: she returns.

2574
02:12:45,640 --> 02:12:50,400
Speaker 1: That's the thing? Is it? That makes me wonder? You know?

2575
02:12:51,280 --> 02:12:56,560
Speaker 1: And I probably should have asked this specifically, but how

2576
02:12:56,600 --> 02:12:59,520
Speaker 1: many opportunities for practice are they're going to be when

2577
02:12:59,560 --> 02:13:03,800
Speaker 1: you look at their schedule, right? I mean that's the

2578
02:13:05,800 --> 02:13:08,880
Speaker 1: that's the thing that jumps out at you. Of Well,

2579
02:13:08,880 --> 02:13:11,320
Speaker 1: wait a minute, if you want to see five live practices,

2580
02:13:12,040 --> 02:13:13,720
Speaker 1: how many chances are you going to get? Because they

2581
02:13:14,600 --> 02:13:18,200
Speaker 1: obviously in action tonight take it on the Seattle storm, right.

2582
02:13:18,720 --> 02:13:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a it's a huge week for them, Jake tonight,

2583
02:13:21,520 --> 02:13:24,480
Speaker 2: seven o'clock. I'll have pregame coverage right here at six

2584
02:13:24,600 --> 02:13:27,600
Speaker 2: forty five. Of course they play Seattle tonight. They have

2585
02:13:27,640 --> 02:13:29,920
Speaker 2: the head to head at the moment over the uh

2586
02:13:30,320 --> 02:13:33,920
Speaker 2: over the storm. But things are so convoluted right now

2587
02:13:34,000 --> 02:13:37,600
Speaker 2: for spots six, seven, eight, and then Los Angeles, who's

2588
02:13:38,160 --> 02:13:41,080
Speaker 2: out of the picture now looking in for the last

2589
02:13:41,120 --> 02:13:43,680
Speaker 2: couple of spots with less than you know, eight games

2590
02:13:43,720 --> 02:13:45,960
Speaker 2: to go, because if the Fever win tonight, then they

2591
02:13:46,000 --> 02:13:48,800
Speaker 2: would be sixth in the standing. If they lose tonight,

2592
02:13:49,720 --> 02:13:52,760
Speaker 2: then it becomes very dire with how the things are

2593
02:13:52,800 --> 02:13:55,160
Speaker 2: looking because in terms of teams around them, Fever have

2594
02:13:55,240 --> 02:13:57,000
Speaker 2: the head head over Seattle. They do not have the

2595
02:13:57,040 --> 02:14:00,320
Speaker 2: head to head over Golden State or Los Angeles, but

2596
02:14:00,360 --> 02:14:02,480
Speaker 2: they do have a game left against each of those

2597
02:14:02,480 --> 02:14:06,520
Speaker 2: teams coming up on a West coast road trip that

2598
02:14:06,640 --> 02:14:09,920
Speaker 2: starts on Friday against the Sparks, Sunday against Golden State,

2599
02:14:09,960 --> 02:14:13,120
Speaker 2: and then concludes on Tuesday in Phoenix.

2600
02:14:13,680 --> 02:14:16,800
Speaker 1: By the way, if you are interested in going to

2601

2603
02:14:20,640 --> 02:14:23,760
Speaker 1: so because and you'll hear me talking more about this

02:15:10,520 --> 02:15:12,400
Speaker 1: He is checking probably right now to make sure there

2620
02:15:12,400 --> 02:15:15,040
Speaker 1: are not any last minute cuts that he was.

2621
02:15:15,400 --> 02:15:18,640
Speaker 15: Manter oasis over there. Are you one of the Gallagher brothers?

2622
02:15:18,680 --> 02:15:24,760
Speaker 15: Are you a lost Gallagher bro man? You are listen?

2623
02:15:24,840 --> 02:15:27,480
Speaker 1: You mentioned it yesterday. It's like it's fifty five degrees

2624
02:15:27,480 --> 02:15:29,480
Speaker 1: out when I left the house this morning. There's no doubt.

2625
02:15:29,600 --> 02:15:30,400
Speaker 1: How sucks.

2626
02:15:30,720 --> 02:15:33,080
Speaker 15: You can't tell me that people actually like this crap

2627
02:15:33,080 --> 02:15:34,960
Speaker 15: in August. It's not supposed to be this one, I

2628
02:15:34,960 --> 02:15:38,880
Speaker 15: would agree. It feels like late Setember, it feels like October.

2629
02:15:38,920 --> 02:15:41,120
Speaker 15: But it's going to get back to normal though, right.

2630
02:15:41,600 --> 02:15:42,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, is it?

2631
02:15:43,840 --> 02:15:45,840
Speaker 15: The problem is you got a lot of pools out there,

2632
02:15:45,840 --> 02:15:47,160
Speaker 15: and it's going to be out of side, out of

2633
02:15:47,200 --> 02:15:50,240
Speaker 15: mine because of football coming up here on Saturdays and Sundays.

2634
02:15:50,280 --> 02:15:55,400
Speaker 1: And that's what sucks. I mean, it's like a premature ending.

2635
02:15:56,440 --> 02:16:02,000
Speaker 15: Excuse me to our summer even Sure, I've got a

2636
02:16:02,040 --> 02:16:06,839
Speaker 15: great deal of history with premature endings, but not to summer.

2637
02:16:06,920 --> 02:16:10,320
Speaker 1: Not with the roommate from Bedford right, Oh, yeah, with

2638
02:16:10,400 --> 02:16:13,760
Speaker 1: Chloe the cat she got knocked up. It's by somebody else.

2639
02:16:14,360 --> 02:16:16,840
Speaker 1: She didn't give me the time of day. Now, did

2640
02:16:16,880 --> 02:16:20,680
Speaker 1: you did you ever meet the fella? I did, Yeah,

2641
02:16:20,840 --> 02:16:23,160
Speaker 1: I did. I think they have long since been divorced.

2642
02:16:23,840 --> 02:16:26,880
Speaker 1: She was, She's awesome. He's a good girl. But she

2643
02:16:26,920 --> 02:16:30,000
Speaker 1: had a long haired Himalayan cat. Really, that only came

2644
02:16:30,040 --> 02:16:32,880
Speaker 1: around when I opened a can of tuna. I was

2645
02:16:32,920 --> 02:16:35,840
Speaker 1: a big time tuna eater out of the can. Uh

2646
02:16:35,920 --> 02:16:39,760
Speaker 1: huh so excellent protein. Yes, what's on the Big Show today?

2647
02:16:39,840 --> 02:16:42,480
Speaker 1: John Little Rakestraw? I got to do college. I've got

2648
02:16:42,480 --> 02:16:43,840
Speaker 1: to do high school with Greg. I know.

2649
02:16:44,080 --> 02:16:47,080
Speaker 15: Friday number one was pretty exciting. And then Joel from

2650
02:16:47,080 --> 02:16:50,920
Speaker 15: the Stars going to join us with the cuts. Very

2651
02:16:52,200 --> 02:16:55,520
Speaker 15: ordinary cut down day, isn't it nothing?

2652
02:16:55,920 --> 02:16:58,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, your list is Bentley the fourth gonna make

2653
02:16:58,080 --> 02:17:02,800
Speaker 1: it practice squad. I think that's probably it, right, That's

2654
02:17:02,840 --> 02:17:04,640
Speaker 1: probably a lot of these guys. They get caught up,

2655
02:17:04,720 --> 02:17:07,320
Speaker 1: get brought back to the practice squad. I would imagine

2656
02:17:07,360 --> 02:17:10,080
Speaker 1: the practice squad is not bad money, though, man, I

2657
02:17:10,120 --> 02:17:12,119
Speaker 1: would take it. What is it? What do you get

2658
02:17:12,120 --> 02:17:14,440
Speaker 1: paid to Eddie on the practice squad? Buddy? I thought

2659
02:17:14,480 --> 02:17:16,400
Speaker 1: somebody said that if you go the year on the

2660
02:17:16,400 --> 02:17:20,880
Speaker 1: practice squad and then get called up for like you know, Sunday,

2661
02:17:21,000 --> 02:17:22,960
Speaker 1: like four games or something, that you can make, it's

2662
02:17:23,040 --> 02:17:24,760
Speaker 1: like close to two hundred, right. Nice.

2663
02:17:24,959 --> 02:17:27,800
Speaker 15: Hey, you're gonna bring Shannon to Mystic Waters on Saturday

2664

2666
02:17:33,040 --> 02:17:36,360
Speaker 1: Nashville for IndyCar which leads me to believe that Shannon

2667
02:17:36,360 --> 02:17:37,720
Speaker 1: probably will be at Mystic Waters.

2668
02:17:38,160 --> 02:17:40,520
