It doesn't matter if 14 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 3: it's a twim minute flight from Chicago to Milwaukee, which 15 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 3: I did when I was on the NBA side of things, 16 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 3: or if it's a three hour flat across the country. 17 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 3: And no, I was not in the first class. I was 18 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 3: in I believe thirty one d yesterday. But I don't 19 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 3: care where I sit as long as I got a seat. 20 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 4: Quite the talent being able to sleep on any flight possible, 21 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 4: that's one of. 22 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 3: The that's rare air. 23 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: I think it's easy. 24 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 3: I think really sleep on any flight. We made like 25 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 3: that because when I first started, I couldn't sleep. But 26 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 3: then if you get tired enough living the NBA life 27 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 3: and you're constantly on the move, if you don't see 28 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 3: what on planes, you're never going to sleep. So Ever, 29 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 3: since I developed that skill, it has not left me. 30 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 3: You guys got a special talent. 31 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: I want to be my wife. Though, when it comes 32 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: to sleep, she could fall. She has in really boring 33 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: one sided football games. Obviously en her fall asleep in 34 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: an NFL game. I think the Colts were just drubbing 35 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: someone back in the Andrew Luckday one time and I 36 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: looked over and she's just sound asleep. 37 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 5: So she was well rested after her last night's double header, 38 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 5: though I don't think she was watching the Monday night 39 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 5: football double header last night, although I guess the big 40 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 5: thing that came out of that. 41 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: Before we get to the Colts, looks like Tyreek Hill 42 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: may be lost for the season after what looked like 43 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: a gruesome dislocation of a kneecap last night. He's thirty 44 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: one years old, James. What does that mean for him 45 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: moving forward? 46 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 3: Well, they also said they believe it's not actually the 47 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: kneecap that is in itself, which is worse. 48 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: I saw that report. 49 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: I haven't seen them, but yeah, so it is obviously 50 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 3: a major injury for him, and at that age you 51 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 3: have to question, can you get back to being the 52 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,839 Speaker 3: tyro killer we know, which is the speedy guy who 53 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 3: changes games because of that rare, rare skill that he 54 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 3: has of being a super duper fast. So, you know, 55 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 3: prayers out for him because that was a nasty looking injury. 56 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll talk a lot about the cults today, getting 57 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: ready for the Raiders coming up this weekend. But KB, 58 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 1: how excited for you? And I love the La de 59 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: la Cruz t shirt this morning for those who can't 60 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: see on the YouTube. Way to show up on that. 61 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. 62 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's been checked out for six weeks. It's nice 63 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 5: to need to show up during the playoffs. 64 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 3: Mark, good luck to your Cubs. Jeff, your thoughts on 65 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 3: the pitching change here for the Reds coming up in 66 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 3: Game two. 67 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: If it's not pitching in this series for the Reds, 68 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: it's not gonna happen because how many runs do you 69 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: think they can score a game? Do you know? 70 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 3: The pitching change in game two? Maybe we should start there. 71 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: Go ahead, because I have not heard of the pitching 72 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: game changing Game two. 73 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 4: We got to get your fandom to playoff level here 74 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 4: now that we are into October baseball, I just haven't 75 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 4: seen that to the bullpen, Zach la tell here coming 76 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 4: up in game two. 77 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 3: Very interesting in my eyes. 78 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 4: But tonight this is why you draft Hunter Green, where 79 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 4: you draft them and cannot wait for it. If there 80 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 4: is a Reds hope, it is with those arms and 81 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 4: you pray that the bats can somehow muster enough runs. 82 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 4: Which I'm not moving my breath on that, but yeah, 83 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 4: we gotta loaded slate. One o'clock. We'll get things started. 84 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 4: And Tuesday when again best of three here in the 85 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 4: wildcard round. So we'll see how the Cubbies can do, Mark, 86 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 4: and we'll see how the Reds can do. And of 87 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 4: course Red Sox Yankees. That slots right into your prime 88 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 4: time there, six o'clock, so it comes in the afternoon, Reds, 89 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 4: brew your coffee. It'll be nine o'clock all week long. 90 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. I like that move though, because I like having 91 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: somebody who if you need to can stretch out to three, four, 92 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: five innings during a game, if somebody gets a little 93 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: banged up, because I think You're gonna have relatively quick 94 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: cooks here. If people get in trouble. Not named Hunter Green, 95 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: but I think if Abbott gets into trouble, for example, Ladelo, 96 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: I think you can bring somebody in and hopefully nail 97 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: it down for Tanks. Me Ner five innings. I'm nervous 98 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: about all of it, but let's go. We gotta just 99 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: pitch because I don't think they're gonna score five runs 100 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: a game. 101 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 6: Kevin, Yes, scoring has been an issue for the team. 102 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 6: So October baseball is here, all right, looking forward to that. Also, 103 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 6: a media day at the Pacers yesterday. James don't think 104 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 6: he got back in time for that. It wouldn't have 105 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 6: been probably your thing anyway. 106 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: But everybody's acknowledging that there's going to be changes and 107 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: in the starting five, and it looks like everybody's talking 108 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: about the change at center at this point in time. 109 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: Speaking of that, before we get into the Pacers, did 110 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: you guys see what Miles Turner said? Did you take 111 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: anything nasty out of that? Said he wanted to be 112 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: in a place. He's happy to be in a place 113 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: where he's gonna be celebrated. Did we not celebrate him 114 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: during the playoffs. 115 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 3: I thought it was an interesting comment for sure, mainly 116 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 3: because he has been loved for I thought the majority 117 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 3: of his career here with the Pacers. Now get that 118 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 3: from the manager standpoint, he was as on the trading block, 119 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 3: which might, you know, fuel some weird feelings about how 120 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 3: your team. You're with the team, you know. I thought 121 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,559 Speaker 3: the fan base is pretty supportive and only they really 122 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 3: got critical of him was when he struggled, and he 123 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 3: struggled mightily in the finals, and so if that's the 124 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: last image or last thing that he kind of latches onto, 125 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 3: then yeah, they probably weren't the most loving fans. But 126 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: that's any fan base when you play that poorly on 127 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 3: that stage. And so he's talking about how the Bucks 128 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 3: fans embrace him and love him, and it's like, yeah, 129 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 3: that's every fan base until you play poorly. So that 130 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 3: was very interesting to me, and I would love to 131 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 3: hear more from Miles of just why he seems to 132 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 3: always want to, you know, stoke the fans a little bit. 133 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm just curious, Kevin, you've been here for the entirety 134 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: of the Miles Turner duration here before he left to Milwaukee, 135 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 1: were a little surprised that he kind of said, I 136 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: want to be in a place where they're going to 137 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: celebrate me. Or is it just one series at the 138 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: end of the NBA Finals that soured him on everything. 139 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 4: No, I don't think it has much to do with 140 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 4: the final series. I think to James's point, this is 141 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 4: a guy that felt like for so often he was 142 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 4: left on the side of the room during the dance 143 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 4: and then finally someone asked him to be out on 144 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 4: the dance floor, and he's gonna let everyone know that 145 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: he is out on the dance. 146 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: Floor with the Milwaukee Bucks. There's part of me is 147 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 3: my new girlfriend, is basically what he's saying pretty much. 148 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, part of me is Miles, dude, let's just move on. 149 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 4: I get the media day is kind of one of 150 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 4: the you know, a few times where you go over 151 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 4: everything from a offseason standpoint, so I'm sure he was 152 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 4: asked something along those lines, But it seems like every 153 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 4: time he's had the opportunity to speak here this offseason, 154 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 4: he's gone out of his way to address the I 155 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 4: wasn't treated fairly, which again the Pacers, you know, they 156 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 4: largely treated him like, you know, a nice NBA player, 157 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 4: which I think is fine, That's what he is, and 158 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 4: he clearly wanted a little bit more so. Circle the 159 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 4: date on the calendar, right, it's one of the earliest 160 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 4: games in the season. I believe it's that first Monday 161 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 4: in November. Inside of Gamebridge Field House. I think the 162 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,559 Speaker 4: Boo birds will be a plenty, and frankly they should 163 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 4: be a plenty, especially as soon as that ball is tipped. 164 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. I also heard from Tyrese Haliburton talking about the 165 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: fact that he has not watched any of the NBA 166 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: Finals and he says at some point he plans to 167 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: get to it, but it's just it's just he doesn't 168 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: have it in him right now. And I totally get that. 169 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: James Boyd, Yeah, absolutely, It's tough the way it ended, 170 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 3: and nobody has to relive that moment more than tat 171 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 3: Reese in his own head. So I feel form in 172 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: that regard. It was weird seeing him in the uniform 173 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: because we know this upcoming season he will not be 174 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 3: in uniform. But as all they all the players always say, 175 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 3: which I think is a complete cliche, all learned the 176 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 3: game from a coach's perspective. Sure, but I think it's 177 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 3: gonna be very tough for him, all right, No, it's 178 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 3: gonna be very tough for him to not be out 179 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 3: there the rest of the guys. But at the same time, 180 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: plenty of opportunity abound for the rest of that group, 181 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: starting with someone like Bendic Matherck, who I think is 182 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 3: in for a very crucial year extension eligible I believe 183 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 3: a fairly soon here as well. And then looking at 184 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 3: Andrew Nimhart, I think his role will have to shift 185 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: a lot, and you know, there's plenty of because the 186 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 3: other roles are shifting. There's other roles that will come 187 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 3: of that. You know, who's gonna be the best on 188 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: ball defender? Jesse Walker heard him talking about, you know, 189 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 3: proven on defense and rebounding. So there's gonna be opportunities 190 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 3: for this team to still, you know, make some noise. 191 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be a lot of fun. Now are 192 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: we burying the lead? Tonight? Where the Indiana Fever play 193 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: at nine thirty tonight in Las Vegas. They are one 194 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: win away from going to the WNBA Finals in what 195 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: has been a crazy, crazy year. James Boyd Yes do 196 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: or Die? 197 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 3: And I love it. I mean I was watching you 198 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 3: guys will appreciate this. I was watching Game four during 199 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 3: the Colts Rams game, so I'm like looking up to 200 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 3: make sure I don't miss anything from my real job, 201 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 3: you know, and but also as someone who lives in 202 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 3: this city, I was very curious to see what Teva 203 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 3: were doing. So I was yelling out updates pretty much 204 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 3: throughout the Colts game until that one ended, and just 205 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 3: a very you know, gutsy performance. I thought all around. 206 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 3: With standing that big night from Asia Wilson, you'll need 207 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 3: more of that tonight if you want to win. And 208 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 3: so you know, the recipe remains the same, need a 209 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 3: big Kelsey Mitchell night. He's your role players step up 210 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 3: as well, and you got to hope that you know, 211 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 3: one of these aces players you can, you know, have 212 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 3: off their game a little bit and then if it's 213 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 3: close at the end, it is anybody's game, all right. 214 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 3: A lot to talk about today. 215 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 1: We've got WNBA playoffs, We've got Major League Baseball playoffs, 216 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: we got football to talk about as the Raiders come 217 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: to town coming up on Sunday. So much more get 218 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: to get to, including even some college football. This week. 219 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: It's all straight ahead. It's the Fan Morning Show on 220 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: a Tuesday, ninety three to five and one oh seven 221 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: five The. 222 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 2: Fans The Morning checkdout on ninety three five and one 223 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: oh seven five The Fan Happy Tuesday Morning. 224 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: We've got a busy day of sports for you. Let's 225 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: start it off with Game five of the WNBA Playoffs 226 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: nine thirty tonight, nine to fifteen. Start with Eddie Garrison 227 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: and the fan pregame show and Kevin Bowen. It all 228 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: comes down. I know they got one more series if 229 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: they can get the win tonight, but I don't think 230 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: anybody expected them to be in a fifth game against 231 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Aces. Let's say a month and a 232 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: half ago, did they No. 233 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 4: Not at all, and Vegas that would be the ones 234 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: building the buildings out there to. 235 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 3: Gamble and no respect the fever. 236 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 4: Tonight, they are a massive underdog in this win and 237 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 4: move on a seven and a half point underdog. You know, 238 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 4: you go back to Game two out there, James, I 239 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 4: thought the Vegas Guards were a big difference maker in 240 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 4: that game, and you get into these series. I'm such 241 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 4: a believer home floor can kind of lift some of 242 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 4: your others. Yeah, that's part of my concern tonight, but 243 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 4: certainly on Sunday as you were trying to multitask as 244 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 4: we all were. That was a hell of an effort 245 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 4: by your two all stars. Can they deliver once again 246 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 4: for you? And Kelsey Mitchell did it in game one. 247 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 3: We'll see if he's got some more magic on the 248 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 3: road tonight. 249 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: Well, that's the thing they've been counting on. I know 250 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: where they've had so many injuries and obviously Caitlyn Clark 251 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: and Sophie Cunningham and down the list it goes. But 252 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: I've also been saying that the thing that's helped the fever. 253 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: They've gotten great role play from a lot of people. 254 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: But Aliah Boston Kelsey Mitchell can play on any team 255 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: in the WNBA. They're really really good players. 256 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 3: James, Yeah, And I thought Alia with outstanding last game. 257 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 3: Anytime you can go tip for tat with the MVP 258 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 3: and Asa Wilson and basically be a wasp between those 259 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 3: two players, that is a very good thing for your 260 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: team because we know, for the most part, Asian Wilson's 261 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: usually gonna get hers. And so I thought Leah went 262 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 3: right back at her, drew a lot of fouls in 263 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 3: that game, and that's what you know, Becky Hammond and 264 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 3: a couple of players were playing about after the game, like, hey, 265 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 3: you know, how does she get thirteen free throws and 266 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 3: my star only gets six? But you know you're at home, 267 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 3: so I guess that's how it works. Sometimes we'll see 268 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 3: if the officiating is similar or a little different on 269 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 3: the road. But nevertheless, you got to make shots. And 270 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 3: I think Aliyah and Kelsey obviously, like you said, Jeff, 271 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 3: have the capability of doing that. But what can the 272 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 3: others do? For example, Odyssey Simms last game six of nine, 273 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 3: big performance. 274 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Field, that'll start again, nine thirty nine, Tip nine 275 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: to fifteen. Airtime with Eddie Garrison. Pacers got together for 276 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: media day yesterday, coming off Game seven of the NBA Finals. 277 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: Of course, the devastating injury to Tyrese Halliburton. He was 278 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: on hand speaking to everybody yesterday and he said, despite injuries, 279 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: despite the lineup change, despite everything that's going to be 280 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: different this year, he says, he and every everybody else 281 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: on that team last year helped set the standard and 282 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: that doesn't change. Well, the standard is the standard. 283 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 7: You know, we have created a culture here that is 284 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 7: special in this league, and it's something that I really 285 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 7: care about when I got traded here. The only guy 286 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 7: that's still here from that group is TJ. And there 287 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 7: wasn't much of a culture here. Coach Rick and the 288 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 7: staff were helping build that, and I think we've done 289 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 7: a great job and that's not changing. So just because 290 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 7: I'm not playing, still going to play fast, still going 291 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 7: to pick up full court play with the infectious joy 292 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 7: and energy that we always do. 293 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: Right, So we'll be looking forward to that and a 294 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: lot of people. You were talking about Vegas system minute ago, 295 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: we were saying that Vegas does not believe in this 296 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: year's Pacers without Tyrese Haliburton and the loss of Miles Turner. 297 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 3: I don't necessarily blame them because I have to see 298 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 3: what these version of the Pacers looks like. I think 299 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 3: that they will probably shock some people. But I do 300 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: think that Halliburn is a big loss, and I think 301 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 3: we've as a fan base, you know, in the city, 302 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 3: the optimism is kind of, you know, overshadowed just how 303 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 3: good of a player he is. They lost an All 304 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 3: NBA player for the entire season, So if they're gonna 305 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 3: you know, backslode, you know a bit, I would not 306 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 3: be surprised at. 307 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: All probably committee at center, but Isaiah Jackson would probably 308 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: be the quote unquote starting center. At this point in time. 309 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: You still have the back court of Nie Smith and 310 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: and and Nemhart and we're looking forward to to seeing 311 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: how that all plays out. But a lot of changing roles, 312 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: Kevin Boonen and we'll see how guys adapt to all that. 313 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, again, I guess ten pencils. 314 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 4: Starting five would be Benedic Matheren alongside Andrew Nemhard and 315 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 4: Airnie Smith, like you said, Jeff, and then you know 316 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 4: Siakam and we'll see if Isaiah Jackson can firm up 317 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 4: that starting job. Remember when Pascal Siaka was traded here, 318 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 4: he had a lot of praise for Miles Turner's presence 319 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 4: alongside him. Isaiah Jackson is certainly not that type of center, 320 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 4: So you know, how will that impact Pascal. I think 321 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 4: that's kind of an under radar, under the radar storyline 322 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 4: here for this season is that Lindam Moore j Huff 323 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 4: because his skill set maybe is a little bit more 324 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 4: you know, t move version of Miles if I can 325 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 4: go there. 326 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: All right, Monday Night football last night, we did have games. 327 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: They were not actually exciting. Mark Dyke, can you and 328 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: I live for Monday Night football sometimes? And both of 329 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: us kind of nodded off, and then I love it. 330 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 3: It wasn't double the pleasure, double the fun. 331 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: No, the Dolphins did get their first win of the year. 332 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: They beat the windless New York Jets twenty seven to 333 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: twenty one. But at what cost? James Boyd, it looks 334 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: like Tyreek Hill is lost for the season. 335 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 3: Yes, it is no ligaments torn ah. 336 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: That's just devastating for anybody to have to go through. 337 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: And at the age of thirty one, being a speedster, 338 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: what does that mean for him? Do you think, James? 339 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 3: I don't know, honestly, and that's probably the scary part. 340 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 3: He's down done for this season, could be done for 341 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 3: next season, depending on how long the rehab process is. 342 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 3: But just a gruesome injury and one that you instantly 343 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 3: feel for the player and what that could mean for 344 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 3: his career and also his life. I mean, you know, 345 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 3: the legs aren'tupposed to look like that. So prayers there 346 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 3: for Tyreek Hill for sure. 347 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: All right. The Denver Broncos won the night chap over 348 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals twenty eight three. Kevin, you and I 349 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: were talking about that during the break. Uh even I 350 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: fell asleep in the first quarter of this one. But 351 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: apparently Broncos just rolled last night. Bo Nick sat over 352 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: three hundred yards passing a couple of touchdowns. JK. Dobbins 353 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: ran for one hundred and one yards. The Bengals really 354 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: just that bad at this point in time. 355 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 3: Does this help the cult strength of schedule? 356 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: Probably Broncos winning. Oh they won, Yeah, it doesn't. 357 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 3: Hurt the four. Is the committee going to decide to 358 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 3: see getting Peter Rankings helping out the Colts here? 359 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 8: Uh? 360 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I believe I saw it was the biggest yardage 361 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 4: discrepancy in the NFL all year, what the Broncos. 362 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 3: Put up last night and what the Bengals did as well. 363 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 4: So yeah, Jamar Chase Zach Taylor seemed to have a 364 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 4: spirit of Combo or two and Life with Jake Browning. 365 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 3: Here you go. Oh boy, there's also. 366 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 5: A million penalties in that game. Is to make it 367 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 5: just like slog through a million penalty. 368 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: Troy Aikman and Joe Buckle like this game stinks. 369 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: All right? Right? The Las Vegas Raiders come to town 370 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: to take on the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday afternoon. It's 371 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: a traditional one o'clock kickover at Lucas Oil Stadium. Remember 372 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: this is the first week for buys. Everybody who plays 373 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: fantasy football on by this weekend. The Falcons the Bears 374 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: are on it by this week mark, So you can 375 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: sleep all day long Sunday if you want to. I 376 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: suppose till the Colts game starts. I don't know. 377 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 3: Maybe we'll see. I'm gonna say, does that now? Life 378 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 3: works when you have three no daughters? Usually means I'm 379 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 3: up before dawn. 380 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: It means he's getting somebody off the top rope with, 381 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: you know, from the turnbuckles at about six forty five 382 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: am on a Sunday, right mark. Usually Green Bay Packers 383 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: and Pittsburgh Steelers also off ont of by this weekend, 384 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: and Major League Baseball's playoffs start, as Kevin was alluding to, 385 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: about fifteen minutes ago one o'clock. The Tigers and Guardians 386 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: get going at three the Padres and Cubs. Cubs kind 387 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: of slept walked over the last week week and a 388 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: half once they clinched the wild card. How are you 389 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: feeling about this game, big guy? 390 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 5: We'll have to see Kate Horton, who is probably going 391 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 5: to be the NL Rookie of the Year for the Cubs. 392 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 5: Probably not. He isn't going to pitch until the if 393 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 5: they make it's the division series, So that stinks because 394 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 5: he's probably would have been your game winner at the 395 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 5: very least Game two starter. So yeah, onus goes on 396 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 5: the pitching staff without Kid Horton, and can those bats 397 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 5: wake up? And will Kyle Tucker be in the lineup 398 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 5: is the big question. Red Sox take on the Yankees 399 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 5: at six o'clock. The Red's going up against the Dodgers 400 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 5: at nine, and Kevin Bowen, how about this for a 401 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 5: pitching matchup. You got Hunter Green and Blake Snell for 402 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 5: the Dodgers going. 403 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 4: And again Hunter Green some big time moments for the 404 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 4: Red Legs in the month of September. This is what 405 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 4: you've been waiting, dreaming for. Frankly, it's been years and 406 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 4: years and years since the Reds have one series and 407 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 4: we saw this with the Fever. I mean, these best 408 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 4: of three. All it takes is just one unbelievable game, 409 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 4: one effort and you can flip this series right upside down. 410 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 4: So all four series today, and like you guys, alluded 411 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 4: to a couple afternoon series and if you are a 412 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 4: Reds fan or a Fever and to night, you got 413 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 4: to brew the coffee, folks, because it is going to 414 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 4: be a late one.

Yesterday the day after Shane Steiken had some 479 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: things to say a lot of the same questions from 480 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: the post game, I would imagine, But did we learn 481 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: anything from coach Sdiking at the press conference yesterday? 482 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,479 Speaker 4: Well, I talked a whole lot yesterday about the Colts 483 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 4: and the Rams. James Boyd, we talked with you briefly, 484 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 4: so I might flip the tables over to you just overall. 485 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 4: Whether it's Ady Mitchell in the postgame locker room, I 486 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 4: know we talk a little bit on that with you 487 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 4: in just twenty four hours later. What did you make 488 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 4: of everything that transpired with him in the game itself 489 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 4: and how you view the Colts? I guess standing with 490 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 4: ad for lack of a better term here or moving forward, I. 491 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 3: Would definitely say it was a somber locker room, which 492 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 3: it always is after a loss, but this was different 493 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 3: because it's like when you're growing up, if those are listening, 494 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 3: you have siblings and you know your siblings in trouble 495 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 3: and you can't laugh, where obviously you can't do anything, 496 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 3: or it's just an awkward situation because like, you know 497 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 3: this is coming. That's what it felt like for Adie 498 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: Mitchell when we walked to the locker room. It's like 499 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 3: we weren't going to any of the locker. We were 500 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 3: already court any with colts pr like, hey, where is 501 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 3: he because he know he has he knows he has 502 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 3: to talk, and if he ducks out of here, that'll 503 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: make it worse, It'll make it a three day story 504 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 3: instead of a you know, game story. So he was 505 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 3: waiting for us hoodie on, pulled the hoodie off, got 506 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 3: up and faced the music. But you could tell everyone's 507 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 3: thinking the same thing. It's like, man, we he lost 508 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 3: this game largely because of our own mistakes. But that 509 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 3: mistake you gave away points like the holding calls one thing, 510 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 3: the penalties on Bernard Ryman. I thought him getting beat 511 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 3: a lot was you know, something that can't be overlooked. 512 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: Exhibit Howard looking like he can't play in the NFL anymore. 513 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 3: Like those things were certainly factors, but to give points 514 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 3: away in that fashion was you know, very you know, damning. 515 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 3: And also the most damning part I thought for Ady 516 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 3: Mitchell was the fact that he told us, yeah, Shane 517 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 3: had a slogan for this, you know, letters and logos, 518 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 3: asking to explain it. Yeah, that means to run through 519 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 3: the letters and the logos in the end, zone and 520 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 3: you still didn't do it. And so when you followed 521 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 3: up with Shane yesterday during our zoom call and you asked, hey, 522 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 3: well he'll be active for week five and Shane was 523 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 3: kind of like, well, he's got to practice and earn it. 524 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 3: I thought that was, you know, very interesting to me 525 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 3: because that was not a confirmation that he will be available. 526 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 3: And honestly, if the Coats for a second are thinking 527 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 3: maybe we got to site this guy down, I would 528 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 3: not blame them, because again, they went over this and 529 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 3: they emphasized this, and you still didn't listen. I think 530 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 3: that's a theme that's kind of happened throughout aighty Mitchell's career, 531 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 3: where you know, I had this debate online yesterday with 532 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: some people. They were like, hey, well they didn't bitch 533 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 3: JT when he did it. Players who've earned grace get it. Yeah, 534 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 3: that different those who don't don't get it. JT has 535 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 3: earned grace. He was already a first team MOLL Pro, 536 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 3: one of the best players that put that position one 537 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 3: best plays in football before he made that. That's who 538 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 3: he is for his entire NFL career. So far, all 539 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 3: we know him for is the bad plays and he's been. Honestly, 540 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 3: I would argue he's been more a negative than a 541 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 3: positive for the Colts to his first two years. Yeah. 542 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 4: I want to get back to that aspect in just 543 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 4: a second, but let's go ahead and play that clip 544 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 4: mark from Shane stike In yesterday. Shane was initially non 545 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 4: committal when asked about, Hey, did you think about benching 546 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 4: eighty within the game itself, even just for a series 547 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 4: or two, And then when asked specifically about eighty playing 548 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 4: on Sunday dressing on Sunday, this was Steikeen's answer. 549 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean he's gonna go through practice and like 550 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 9: I said, he's got to earn it going forward quick. 551 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: Simple. So what does that mean? 552 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 3: What do you think? 553 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: I don't think we want to see him as much 554 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: as we had hope to see. Will you see with 555 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: a jersey on the think they'll make him an active. 556 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 3: That's what the question was. The question was. 557 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 4: Will he be active? Will he play on Sunday? And 558 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 4: that's the answer that you get. And remember Ady Mitchell 559 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 4: does not play special teams, unlike Ashton doing. Ady Mitchell 560 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 4: is playing when everyone's healthy. And we'll see about Alec 561 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 4: Pierce of course in his availability right after missing a 562 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 4: game when everyone's healthy eighty Mitchell is playing about twelve 563 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 4: snaps fifteen STAPs a game. So is this do you 564 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 4: feel like you need further accountability? Shane said yesterday Ady 565 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 4: Mitchell spoke in front of the team. Ady Mitchell had 566 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 4: a one on one with Shane Stikeen. Is that enough 567 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 4: in the account of definition or is there more coming 568 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 4: from the Colts and the Jonathan Taylor analogy you bring 569 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 4: up from last year, James, My question would be this, 570 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 4: do you, unlike Taylor, do you classify Mitchell as a 571 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 4: repeatable offender, not necessarily in dropping the ball at the 572 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 4: goal line, but in a lack of trust because I 573 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 4: would argue in his rookie season he defined lack of 574 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 4: trust that was finishing plays, that was timing and catching 575 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 4: the football. He had the worst catch percentage of any 576 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 4: receiver in the NFL with at least fifty targets last year, 577 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 4: So last year he lacked trust. Specifically on Sunday, you 578 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 4: couldn't trust him to cross the goal line and then 579 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 4: where was his mental headspace at later in the game 580 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 4: on a holding penalty? That is the exact teach tape 581 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,719 Speaker 4: on what not to do from a fundamental aspect. So 582 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 4: that's now the question for Shane Stichen. Do you feel 583 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 4: like you need further accountability with a guy that in 584 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 4: the trust category, I would argue is a repeatable of thunder? 585 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 3: That would be my question. 586 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: I agree with everything you just said, and I understand 587 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 1: the question, and I understand his short response, which kind 588 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: of sounded to me like he wasn't really wanting to 589 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: answer the whole thing. You don't say with Shane Steiking, 590 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: But I also feel I don't know how they handle him. 591 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what that dynamic is within that building. 592 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: Don't you think that in certain situations, especially when you're 593 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: going with multiple whiteouts on the field, that it just 594 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: puts more stress on just the defense having to cover 595 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,360 Speaker 1: everybody because there's no question the guy's physically gifted. 596 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's true, Jeff, and I certainly think 597 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 3: that he is very talented. I think he's the most 598 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,479 Speaker 3: talented we're obviously they have on the roster as far 599 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 3: as pure talent and physical ability goes. But at some 600 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 3: point where do you draw the line exactly the potential 601 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 3: that you see in him is a backhanded compliment if 602 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,199 Speaker 3: you cannot reach because you are not focused enough to 603 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 3: do so. And so I think that that is a 604 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 3: big issue for Adie Mitchell so far throughout his career, 605 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 3: and if they decided to sit him, it would be 606 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 3: warranted and I would feel zero sympathy because the mistake 607 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 3: he made again the holding call, whatever, you know, it's 608 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 3: a bad play and honestly, like Kevin said, just horrible fundamentals. 609 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 3: I don't know what he's been trying to do there, 610 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 3: just a blatantly obvious hold. But to not cross the 611 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 3: goal line after they made this A big point of 612 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 3: emphasis is that's almost unforgivable. And I know people are 613 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 3: saying other mistakes are made, yes, but not that mistake. 614 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 3: And so again, if they want to set him, I 615 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 3: would I could see both sides of it, like why 616 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 3: you want to play him, you know, the second round pick, 617 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,360 Speaker 3: young guy? He does offer you some you know, advantages, 618 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 3: I would think, you know when it comes to defense 619 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 3: having an account for him. However, when does the negatives 620 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 3: out whatever few positives you have brought to this team. 621 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 3: I would argue again that Adie Mitchell through his first 622 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 3: two years has been a net negative over a net 623 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 3: positive for the Colts and I think that's I don't 624 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 3: controversial statement at all. 625 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 4: Jeff just can't afford a game where Adie Mitchell's on 626 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,640 Speaker 4: the he's gonna catches. 627 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: I've waved goodbye to that, but but honestly, no jokes aside. 628 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 3: That's the that's the sad part though. That's the sad part. 629 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 3: He had three catches for ninety six yards on Sunday, 630 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 3: career high, you know, a big time performance, and it 631 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 3: should have been three catches for ninety seven and a touchdown. 632 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 3: But that's the eighty Mitchell experience. And the last thing 633 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 3: I'll say on this is if they do want to 634 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: lean more towards a guy like Ashton Dueling, when have 635 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 3: we ever questioned he's study, his focus, he's studying, he's 636 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 3: willingness to block, he's willingness to make the plays on 637 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 3: Granted he's a veteran, but we've never had to question 638 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 3: his focused level on game days. 639 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 4: And I would really have little issue with City and 640 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 4: Mitchell for a week. 641 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 3: I'm not saying get rid of for the rest of 642 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: the season, and if you want to teach a lesson, 643 00:28:59,000 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 3: that's fine. 644 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 4: Like you have guys an active every week for lack 645 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 4: of trust it's just not as public as potentially this 646 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 4: Adie Mitchell situation would be. I mean, there are plenty 647 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 4: of guys that you have not dressing on a game 648 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 4: day because for whatever reason, either you trust others or 649 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 4: you don't trust that player himself. 650 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 3: So I would have no issue with that, honestly. 651 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 4: But where I sit at it from Sunday, the fact 652 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 4: that you know he makes that play and it's a 653 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's an incredible catch that he makes, 654 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 4: like there's no denying that man move after Yeah, I 655 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 4: mean everything about that play pre goal line is pretty rare. 656 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 3: That happened. What eleven mins go in the third quarter? 657 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 3: Ten mints go in the third quarter. 658 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 4: The next time he shows him in the box score 659 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 4: is two minus go in the game on the holding penalty, 660 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 4: Like that's the next I mean, you know, Jonathan Taylor 661 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 4: responded with two hundred rushing yards from the Denver play 662 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 4: on the goal line, and who knows, maybe Adie Mitchell 663 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 4: have twoundred yards coming up on Sunday. But within the 664 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 4: game itself, that was Adie Mitchell's response that And again, 665 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 4: maybe you should have sent a message during the game. 666 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 4: Maybe you should have said, hey, Shane second said he 667 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 4: had a conversation with him, maybe said, hey, you and 668 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 4: Reggie Wayne, you two chat for five or ten minutes. 669 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 4: Duland's going to take your reps for this series. Let's regroup, 670 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 4: you know later on in the third quarter, you know, 671 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 4: maybe you you do that with him, You go over 672 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 4: to him and say, all right, you good, We're taking 673 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 4: a shot to you right here on the first play 674 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 4: of this next series, just to kind of get him 675 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 4: back in the game. I believe he only had one 676 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 4: target the rest of the game. I think he caught 677 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 4: a ball in that final drive before Pittman. You had 678 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 4: the interception in the direction of Michael Pittman Jr. So 679 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 4: I just think it's a storyline to watch this week. 680 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 4: Clearly Shane Steichen was not ready to commit to Adie 681 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 4: Mitchell dressing. And we'll see. 682 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 3: And we should point out. 683 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 4: About Mitchell by all accounts, he is a guy that 684 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 4: shows great work, ethic, shows up early. It's in the building, 685 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 4: a ton you know, jugs machine, you know, all the 686 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 4: things you'd be looking for. This is not necessarily whatever 687 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 4: if you want to say, Anthony Richardson got benched for 688 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 4: his Monday through Saturday prep I don't think that concern 689 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 4: is there with Adie. 690 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 3: Mitchell, so it is worth pointing out. 691 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: I think the other thing that I think is worth 692 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: pointing out to kind of to build on your point 693 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: killer Kevin Nick over on the sideline after that happened, 694 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: several Colts players were trying to pump him up, like, 695 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: hey man, we need you keep keep your head up, 696 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: keep your head in the game. They didn't just abandon 697 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: him and let him sit over there by himself on 698 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: the sideline, which we have seen teams do with players 699 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: sometimes that do dumb things. 700 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I thought what Jades he said after Sunday's 701 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 3: game about being in that situation knowing you gave points 702 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: away was very valid because he was like, you're trying 703 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 3: to receive the message from your teammates, but he was like, 704 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 3: you're just trying to internalize what you just did and 705 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 3: how you messed up the game. And so, yeah, they 706 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 3: can come over to you and try to, you know, 707 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 3: pick you up and keep your head in it. But 708 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 3: it is hard to overcome a gaff like that because 709 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 3: it just doesn't happen very often unless you're the Colton. 710 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: It happened twice in two years not sure if this 711 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 3: analogy is perfect. I think it's a decent one. 712 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 4: This's from Wes he goes, Adie Mitchell's Anthony Richardson, Ashton 713 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 4: Dolan's Daniel Jones. I get the positions are different, but 714 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 4: Shane Styken has shown he values consistency and reliability over upside. 715 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: It may be. 716 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,959 Speaker 3: That may be I would agree with that on statement honestly, 717 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 3: and again it comes out of reliability. Try to win games. 718 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 3: Here you are not helping us win and that's the 719 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 3: hard part. So Adie Mitchell talented player. I think that 720 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 3: he certainly has a bright future if he's able to 721 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 3: focus more. But if they punish him for this, I 722 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 3: wouldn't be surprised, and again it's warranted. 723 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: Well, the other problem besides just the touchdown is the 724 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: holding call, and Shane Stiken did address the ad Mitchell 725 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: holding call also yesterday. 726 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, it just occurred right there, probably five yards down 727 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 9: the line of scrimmage. The corner for the Rams just 728 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 9: kind of got inside and he got his hands on 729 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 9: him and grabbed him and he went to the ground 730 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 9: and they called the holding call and obviously we can't 731 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 9: do that in this situation, and it just comes back 732 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 9: to the fundamentals and the technique of blocking at that position. 733 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: So on top of the mental mistake, they're just not 734 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: being in position, not doing the thing that was on 735 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: Colt's roundtable last night here on the fan, and you 736 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: wonder if it's all just compounds, and maybe maybe Shane 737 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: is saying to just take it to your point, Kevin, 738 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: just take a breather, just take a day, just take 739 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: a day off and think about it. 740 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 3: James Dummer play from Sunday, eighty mitchell the goal line 741 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 3: or ten men on the field eighty Mitchell the goal line. 742 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: See, I have a problem with ten menu on the 743 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: field because how many guys missed. How many people everywhere 744 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: missed that, from people in the booth, the people on 745 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: the sideline to the guys in the game. 746 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 3: I agree with you that it is an egregious mistake, 747 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 3: but I think when you do all the work to 748 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 3: get down to the inch yardeline and you still on score, 749 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 3: that is a dumber mistake. 750 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm a Jeff on this one. The 751 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 4: amount of eyes on ten men on the field, I mean, 752 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 4: how many people are they employed up in that booth 753 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 4: and the fact that you miss that, I mean that's 754 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 4: Ady Mitchell is a single human the amount of people 755 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 4: that go into getting ten dudes on the field in 756 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 4: an NFL game, not during a series. I mean that 757 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 4: was after a change of possession. I mean it's not 758 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 4: like it's a chaotic moment there. So I'll be curious 759 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 4: what Louis an Rumo says on that yesterday Shane fell 760 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 4: on the sword significantly in blaming himself for it. You know, 761 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 4: it was brought up to me yesterday. That was a 762 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 4: great point a buddy of mine made. He goes, this 763 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 4: is part of the reason why I think it's so 764 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 4: beneficial that Carli Ursa Gordon is on the headset, because 765 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 4: I would assume the immediate aftermath of finding out there 766 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 4: were ten people on the field that would have been 767 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 4: quite the colorful language on the headset. And you know, 768 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 4: Shane's Sichin takes blame as head coach. I get where 769 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 4: Shane's coming from. But also, like this gets back to 770 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 4: the whole Shane Ssiken debate. There's so much on it's 771 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 4: plate on game day, and that was right after what 772 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 4: an offensive drive ended. Shane probably and again I don't 773 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 4: have a camera on him, but there's probably some element 774 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 4: of Shane psyching is thinking about that offensive drive that 775 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 4: just occurred, thinking about, Hey, if we get a stop 776 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,919 Speaker 4: here as a defense, what do I want to call 777 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 4: on a potential game winning drive of the minutes ago 778 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 4: an X amount of timeouts left. He's probably not sitting there. 779 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:28,720 Speaker 3: Going one, two, three, four, five, six. He's not counting 780 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 3: to eleven on the sidelines there. So you know, this 781 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 3: is something that again the whole Carly headset thing, I 782 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 3: would find that beneficial in getting to the root of 783 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 3: ten men on the field. 784 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 5: Have you seen how many people are on the sidelines 785 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 5: on game days. It's like a small village, and that 786 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 5: many eyes. 787 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 3: That you guys might be winning me over here? 788 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 4: And Mark, Mark, you've been in an NFL press boxes? James, 789 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 4: you're an NFL press boxes. The herd of coaches that 790 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 4: run through a press box at halftime or the end 791 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 4: of a game that gets the elevator. How can they 792 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 4: all fit into one press box? 793 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: Yeah? 794 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 3: I'm always carried twelve of them. I truly do want 795 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 3: to ask the count what the heck do you actually 796 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 3: do here? Yeah? What is your job like? From office space? 797 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 4: I would legitimately think the amount of people you see 798 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 4: on an NFL sidelined or in practice, or certainly during 799 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 4: a game mark or up in the booth. There has 800 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 4: to be someone on that staff that sole job is 801 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 4: you count to eleven every single play. 802 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 5: Travis, the intern should be count If somebody's in there 803 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 5: counting somebody, they've got to be like, all right, you 804 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 5: fill the water, you count how many people are on 805 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 5: the field. 806 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: Didn't we have Jim Trussell quality control around here. 807 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 3: At one point it. 808 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 4: Was yes for Jim Calbloll. Would you want to be 809 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 4: the counter? I think the counter would stress me out. 810 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 4: You know how many times you would accidentally count wrong 811 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 4: and freak out for that seven seconds as you're recounting. 812 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 5: I know, I always like you have to track people 813 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,439 Speaker 5: and they start moving, then to count him already. Same 814 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 5: with kids, You're like, wait, did I count you already 815 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 5: stayed stand still for a minute. 816 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, it's it's you al raise multiple points 817 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 3: and again looking at the play. They're both very stupid. 818 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 1: James. 819 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 4: To be fair, let me be clear on that there's 820 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 4: no real winner here in the amount of and Alex 821 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 4: points out, yes, you have captains on the field. You know, 822 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,399 Speaker 4: I think cam Biden said to you guys. James after 823 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 4: the game, he thought something was odd. Yeah, he just 824 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 4: didn't know exactly. And this is a little bit of 825 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 4: the lou Ana Roumo pre snap confusion because if you 826 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 4: watch that play, the Colts have like six or seven 827 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 4: dudes at the line of scrimmage. It's not like you're 828 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 4: counting like a basic four three four shape. 829 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 3: You're not. I mean, that's not how lou operated. 830 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. 831 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 3: I had a chance to ask Zire Franklin about the 832 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 3: same gap at the end of the game. Why do 833 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 3: you only have ten defenders out there? You are one 834 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 3: of the team captains, And he was saying, well, I 835 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 3: was up, you know, with the front and look in 836 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 3: the blitz and so I didn't see the backside. And 837 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 3: he did say it was excusable, but he kind of 838 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,359 Speaker 3: gave us his perspective on the play, but overall, a 839 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 3: very unacceptable mistake. And when you look at what happened 840 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 3: on the play, Yeah, Makai Blackman fell down. But if 841 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 3: you were going to have an extra defensive back out 842 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 3: there like you were supposed to, perhaps that play is 843 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 3: only forty yards or fifty yards, not a house call 844 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 3: that costs you a game. So when you're asking which 845 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 3: play is worse. Both of them cost you a touchdown. 846 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 5: The Ady Mitchell play is an individual play. The ten 847 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 5: minute on the field is a team effort gaff. And 848 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 5: that's why I fault that one because it fell on 849 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 5: the entire team. The entire organizational failure of that play would. 850 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 1: Have made something. If Carly is the one that caught that. 851 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 3: And maybe she was, do you think maybe she might 852 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 3: have been like, no, she's trying to call a time out? 853 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 3: Would NFL officials award hero a timeout? 854 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 4: I don't think can your head is your head coach 855 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 4: only a person allowed to call time out? 856 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 3: Can a coordinate her call timeout or no? 857 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 1: I think the head coach has to do it. 858 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 3: Got to be the head coach or obviously. 859 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: Otherwise everybody's just yelling at the referee all day. 860 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is That is a good point. 861 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 4: Would you guys fall in more of the you played 862 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 4: the audio earlier? Would you fall more in the Tyres 863 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 4: Halliburton never watch Game seven or any playoff game again? 864 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 4: Or would you fall into Rick Carlisle watch it until 865 00:38:58,320 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 4: the injury. 866 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: I think a lot of guys that I've known, interviewed, 867 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: traveled with over the years playoff losses. A lot of 868 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: them bury it and never go back to it, and 869 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: then there are some that obsets over it. So I 870 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: think it's individual. I think I would want to break 871 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: down every single moment and go what went what went well, 872 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: what went right, so that I can do more of 873 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 1: the good stuff later on. But some guys just want 874 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: to bury it. 875 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 3: James didn't. Shane Steichen rewatch the Super Bowl the morning 876 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,759 Speaker 3: of his press conference with the Colts to announce him 877 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 3: as head coach. He did because I was asking him 878 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 3: how hard it was to leave Philly. 879 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 4: Is that like a Sunday to Tuesday? I'm trying to 880 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,800 Speaker 4: think of, I got my day straight Sunday, Super Bowl, 881 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 4: Tuesday announcement, Wednesday announcement. 882 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 3: That sounds about right. I remember I was at church 883 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,800 Speaker 3: when that news broke. I had to tell Grandma, I 884 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 3: gotta go to the car real quick and type this up. 885 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: Written. But did that conversation go with Grandma? Yeah? 886 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 3: I brought back in here and say some prayers. That 887 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 3: thing has hit published and pay its eyes all right. 888 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 3: So yeah, I think that I would go back and 889 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 3: watch it all the way up until the injury, because 890 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 3: that bedroom was which is as what Carlout said to us, right, yeah, 891 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 3: and maybe it's just different for every player. I certainly 892 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,399 Speaker 3: empathize with Tyreese and perhaps he lived it so didn't 893 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 3: have to necessarily go back and rewatch it, But for us, 894 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 3: I will. I don't think I've ever skipped over those 895 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 3: highlights since the end of the run. Like I'll see 896 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 3: him on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram or TikTok, and 897 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 3: I'll find myself watching whenever they come across my timeline. Yeah. 898 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: I've known a lot of players that have told me 899 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 1: after Super Bowl losses that they never wanted to watch 900 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: that game ever again. It was just too painful. 901 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 4: Curious how tonight's game flow will be again. Game five, 902 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 4: winner moves on to the Finals, loser. Offseason begins. Fever 903 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 4: aces nine thirty the tip time. I get that it's 904 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 4: not Game seven of the NBA Finals, but I thought 905 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 4: Game seven the NBA Finals, and certainly post Haliburn injury, 906 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 4: maybe pre Haliburn injury didn't feel this way, but that 907 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 4: game turned into an absolute grind that was like a 908 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 4: big ten Tuesday night game. It was like first one 909 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 4: to like sixty have felt like well, I mean the Pacers, 910 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 4: you know, every time, it seemed like Matherin made a 911 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 4: basket to cut it to like nine. You kind of 912 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 4: were like, wait, is this gonna happen? Is this like 913 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 4: the thunder could never really fully pull away? Is that 914 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 4: what we're gonna see tonight? Is it gonna be a grind? 915 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 4: Is it gonna be a slog? You know, I remember 916 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 4: saying this in the clinching game of the Atlanta Dream 917 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 4: series of the Fever put game pressure on them, and you, 918 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 4: I mean, James, you remember full well the end of 919 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,359 Speaker 4: that Dream game. There were some wild coaching decisions by 920 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 4: Atlanta in the final minute too. Now, Becky Hammond's I 921 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 4: think's in a different stratusphere, absolutely from a coaching standpoint, 922 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 4: but still they are gonna feel the pressure. 923 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 3: They didn't think the series would go five, and. 924 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 4: They're gonna be the favorite, probably against the Mercury if 925 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 4: they're able to advance. It's not the links with Nafisa 926 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 4: Collier waiting there in the finals. So can Stephanie White's bunch, 927 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 4: can we get to a fourth quarter late in those 928 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 4: media timeouts? And Ryan Rucco is you know, having the 929 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 4: octavion of Jews raise a little bit? Can you put 930 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 4: that game pressure on. 931 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: I think the first six to eight minutes tonight are 932 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,800 Speaker 1: really important for the Fever. They cannot let Asia Wilson 933 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 1: and the Aces get out to like an eighteen to 934 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:11,959 Speaker 1: six advantage right out of the gate. 935 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 3: It will tell us a lot here in just over 936 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 3: twelve hours. So I'm looking forward to that game. I 937 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:19,919 Speaker 3: will be wired for that one. 938 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think the Fever did a really 939 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: nice job when they've won these games. They've just kind 940 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:28,839 Speaker 1: of made better plays at better times. But they have 941 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 1: trouble with this team, it seems in this series if 942 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: getting behind and having to dig themselves back out, James, 943 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:35,800 Speaker 1: that's been a problem. 944 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, they can't dig themselves back out. They go down 945 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 3: by you know, fifteen sixteen points here early, it'll be over. 946 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 3: So you got to keep it close. And I expect 947 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 3: a lot of people to be on edge for this game, 948 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 3: and it is how you responsor to that that moment, 949 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,839 Speaker 3: that pressure and that opportunity. But again, if you ask 950 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 3: any team at the beginning of the year, hey, one 951 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 3: game goes to the finals, you take that all? 952 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 1: Right? Coming up in just a minute, more on the 953 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: Colts getting ready for the Raiders on some day afternoon 954 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:02,240 Speaker 1: over at Lucas Oil Stadium. 955 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 3: Give me Chris Berman Raiders. 956 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: Alright, look at that take it on the Indianapolis caught that, Mark. 957 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 3: That was beautiful from Jeff Record. 958 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,320 Speaker 1: We need to get one of those stumbling bumbling remember 959 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: those those were good stuff. 960 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 2: Man. 961 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:18,879 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can put that one off. 962 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: We'll try something like that. All right, it's all coming 963 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: up next. Ninety three five, one oh seven five.

Is 972 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:45,399 Speaker 1: it New Orleans again? 973 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 3: Some reason?

Yesterday? 977 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I for Sunday. 978 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,279 Speaker 1: I was so I guess no Taylor Swift. Everybody was 979 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 1: all excited that it was gonna be Taylor Swift.

That clock just 1011 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 1: keeps on turning, and the Raiders come to town on 1012 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 1: Sunday one way or the other. 1013 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 4: Kevin Bowen, James three, fan of SOFI, and a lot 1014 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 4: of people have hyped up the stadium. 1015 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 3: I thought the studium was very nice, but at the 1016 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 3: same time I didn't think that it was I mean, 1017 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 3: I've been to a couple of very nice ones at 1018 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 3: this point. I'll probably still put like Minnesota's my number 1019 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:45,319 Speaker 3: of weeks like Minnesota's. 1020 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1021 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 3: I like the open air press box. This one was 1022 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 3: not open air at least from the press box side 1023 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 3: of things, but very nice, great view. They have a 1024 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 3: huge jumbo tron in there, so if you do get 1025 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 3: tickets to that game and you're sitting way in the 1026 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,439 Speaker 3: last row, it's really not a bass in the house. 1027 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 3: Because of that big scoreboard, you're able to watch the game. Obviously, 1028 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 3: the climbing everything is really good and very nice, but yeah, 1029 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 3: it just complicated, like getting and getting out of that place, 1030 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 3: like it's I'm used to my I guess Indianapolis roots 1031 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 3: because when we were exiting, me and Nate, you know, 1032 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 3: shout out to night Adkins and now covering the rams 1033 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 3: for the athletic we were leaving the stadium. It took 1034 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 3: us forever to figure out how to get out. And 1035 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 3: I'm like, dude, aren't don't you like, aren't you supposed 1036 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 3: to be showing me where to go? And he's like, well, 1037 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,399 Speaker 3: it's only my second game here. But yeah, like there 1038 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 3: were certain ways if you go out. It was like 1039 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 3: the camp No, seriously, the stadium is so big, and 1040 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 3: you know, if we leave, like for example, we leave 1041 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,399 Speaker 3: the Colts Stadium, it's like you go down the street 1042 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 3: level and you're out. They're like, well, if you're on 1043 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 3: this side of the building, street level is actually the 1044 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 3: fifth level, and then you got to walk across a 1045 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 3: bridge and go down. But if you go to the 1046 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,320 Speaker 3: other side of the building, it's level six and you 1047 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 3: got to go down and out, and it was gated 1048 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,160 Speaker 3: all around. So we were like, we just hopped the 1049 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 3: fence like it was. It was bizarre. It was a lot. 1050 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 3: So I'm appreciative of things being said. He in Indiana. 1051 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 3: Now you're ready when you're back there in two weeks, right, 1052 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 3: I am. Actually I was thinking about that. I was like, 1053 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 3: at least I know where to go, how to get 1054 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,839 Speaker 3: out all those Chargers coming up in a few weeks. 1055 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,720 Speaker 3: We'll see that game gets flexed. I was the idiot 1056 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 3: who asked Nay if he'll be around that weekend. He's like, well, no, James, 1057 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 3: because if they're playing the Charges at home, that means 1058 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 3: I'm on the road. And I was like, my bad brother, 1059 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 3: I'll see you next time. They don't go doubleheader at 1060 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 3: one and four exactly. 1061 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 1: That's the one thing though, I love about Indianapolis, whether 1062 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 1: it's going over to the Fieldhouse, whether it's going to 1063 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium, it's amazing. I live up on the 1064 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: north side, just north of town or right over the 1065 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: border in Carmel there. 1066 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 7: And. 1067 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 1: It's just not a it's not an all day thing 1068 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 1: to go to a game like it is in most 1069 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 1: NFL cities. For a one o'clock game, you can easily 1070 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 1: leave your home at eleven o'clock, eleven thirty, even get 1071 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: into the game on time, and when you leave the game, 1072 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:55,359 Speaker 1: you'll get home five o'clock or so. It's not an 1073 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 1: eight am in the morning until eight pm at night extravaganza. 1074 00:47:59,200 --> 00:47:59,920 Speaker 1: I love that. 1075 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 4: Well, you get that in the Super Bowl because that 1076 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 4: Levi Stadium that's like Lucas Oil and Martinsville or it's 1077 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,839 Speaker 4: like an hour out of s Sarrancisco. Man, it's it's 1078 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,440 Speaker 4: down in San Jose is where it's not that far 1079 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 4: from the San Jose. 1080 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,879 Speaker 3: How many NFL teams are frauds, They're not actually playing 1081 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,799 Speaker 3: the city that they claim. Oh, there are a lot 1082 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:18,720 Speaker 3: that definitely play. 1083 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 5: Shout out to the Indianapois cult for being very truthful 1084 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:22,360 Speaker 5: far away from downtown. 1085 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,919 Speaker 4: What do you make of Daniel Jones on Sunday, James, 1086 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,799 Speaker 4: It's one of the rare games where like, and we 1087 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 4: did this yesterday and we just did it again today. 1088 00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 4: There's so many other things to talk about, non quarterback division, 1089 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,359 Speaker 4: which is pretty rare in the NFL. But what did 1090 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:36,320 Speaker 4: you make of Daniel Jones? 1091 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 3: I thought that he had clearly his worst day of 1092 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,239 Speaker 3: the season and two turnovers. The last one, I'm like, 1093 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:42,839 Speaker 3: you're just throwing it up, trying to make a play 1094 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 3: into the game. You're pressing a bit. But the interception 1095 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 3: that he had targeting eighty Mitchell thought he underthrew that ball, 1096 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 3: could have put more on that. Now you have the 1097 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 3: people out there and I'm out, really in that camp 1098 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 3: of oh eighty Mitchell's got a fight for that, and 1099 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 3: you know, knock the ball down. It's like, throw a 1100 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 3: better football for the guy who beat his man. So 1101 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 3: I thought Daniel looked more like what we would have 1102 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:09,239 Speaker 3: expected a good cold team to look like. And by that, 1103 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 3: I mean, make a couple of mistakes, give you a 1104 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 3: chance to still win the game. Because granted, he should 1105 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 3: have had a touchdown past eighty Mitchell, who made incredible 1106 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 3: play up until that gaff at the end. But to me, 1107 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 3: I thought that that was the more what we were 1108 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,560 Speaker 3: expecting from Daniel Jones. And granted he also faced a 1109 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 3: lot of pressure unlike through the first couple of weeks 1110 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 3: of the season, and I thought he could have been better. 1111 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 3: But the crazy part is he was still great against 1112 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,800 Speaker 3: the blitz. Like I was looking at his blitz numbers. 1113 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 3: We all these advanced stats. He was good, really good 1114 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 3: against the blitz. But again, when you're getting that amount 1115 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 3: of pressure and we turn the ball over, it's not gonna, 1116 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:44,680 Speaker 3: you know, bode well for you. 1117 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 1: Well, Kevin and I had talked about this quite a 1118 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,880 Speaker 1: bit yesterday. I thought it was a real mixed bag. 1119 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 1: As you've been pointing out, there are still times with 1120 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 1: his feet he does things to get out of a 1121 00:49:55,600 --> 00:50:00,120 Speaker 1: messy pocket that I know Anthony Richards can do. We've 1122 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 1: seen other people do that. But he gets his shoulder 1123 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,320 Speaker 1: square and makes a nice throw afterwards, and he's able 1124 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: while he's scrambling out of that messy pocket to get 1125 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: himself set to throw a decent football. And I like 1126 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 1: that about him. Like that a lot about him, James. 1127 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: I saw that a couple of times. 1128 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, I told it and again, and in 1129 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,879 Speaker 3: credit to a few of the people who were saying, hey, 1130 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:22,480 Speaker 3: you still can't, you know, just throw it up for 1131 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 3: grabs on that second pick, Yes, I would agree there. 1132 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:26,400 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm being a little too soft on him, but 1133 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 3: I just think that that first interception was kind of 1134 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 3: what we were expecting to see from Daniel Jones a 1135 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 3: little bit. I thought a couple of throws Kevin, he 1136 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,240 Speaker 3: didn't put enough on it, and it makes you question, Okay, 1137 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:39,919 Speaker 3: is this why you don't push you down the field 1138 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 3: as much with him? 1139 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, the last pick I said yesterday, I thought it 1140 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 4: was as hair early for hero ball Like that to 1141 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 4: me was a hero ball throw. I get at some 1142 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 4: point in that final drive you might need to throw 1143 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,799 Speaker 4: the hero ball, But I thought with three timeouts, a 1144 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 4: first down a minute ago, Jonathan Taylor, I thought was 1145 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:56,759 Speaker 4: open on a checkdown, you easily could have taken a 1146 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,720 Speaker 4: time out. I thought it again, just a hair early 1147 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 4: for the hero ball. I thought, in general, James, it 1148 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 4: was the most under duress the offense has been all 1149 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:10,120 Speaker 4: year long. And I say that from a pass rush standpoint. 1150 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 4: I thought one of the more of the disappointing aspects 1151 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 4: of Sunday was the rams ability to create pressure with 1152 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 4: four like they didn't even need to blitz you. I 1153 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 4: know you point out some of the blitz sets. They 1154 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 4: didn't have the blitz all that often to get pressure. 1155 00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 4: And then I just thought, in general, it was the 1156 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 4: most contested windows. But you know what if that is 1157 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 4: the worst Daniel Jones game, Like if you would have 1158 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,919 Speaker 4: showed me the first four games of the year, showed 1159 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 4: me the Rams film of Daniel Jones and said this 1160 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 4: is the worst Daniel Jones is going to play through 1161 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,200 Speaker 4: the first month of the season. I would have said, 1162 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 4: Holy my, let me quote Matt Taylor here. I mean, 1163 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 4: that's that's a great first month of the season for 1164 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones. And that's how I sit here today on 1165 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 4: this Tuesday, and I think as we get further removed 1166 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 4: from Sunday and the sting of it, I get the 1167 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 4: ad Mitchell storyline we probably should got to and Howard 1168 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 4: here and a little bit as well, what do you 1169 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 4: do with him? But as you start to exit the 1170 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 4: aftermath of Sunday, you're a three and one football team, 1171 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 4: you went toe to toe with, I think, one of 1172 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 4: the better teams in the league, and you're sitting here 1173 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 4: with a golden opportunity to get to five and one 1174 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,879 Speaker 4: with home games against the Raiders and Cardinals the next 1175 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:19,400 Speaker 4: two weeks. 1176 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:23,320 Speaker 1: Holy my, do you ask you received? 1177 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 4: How did you find that so quickly? 1178 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,200 Speaker 3: I'm readily available? Is that real? Was that math? 1179 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 1: It's real? 1180 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? Uh huh? So's this one? 1181 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 1: Get out? 1182 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 3: Yep? That Taylor Braby has some great clip. 1183 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 1: Go to the fan text line right now two through nine, 1184 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,320 Speaker 1: ten seventy. While we're talking about that game Rams and Colts, 1185 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: Mark says, you've brought up the Rams drive before the half, 1186 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 1: Stichen and Colts with bad play, calling an execution before 1187 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: the half by not running using the clock and leaving 1188 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,600 Speaker 1: the Rams all that time to score from ninety four 1189 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 1: yards out. That happened a ton last year. Lost so 1190 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 1: much momentum going into the half. One of the things 1191 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 1: that gets lost in the eighty Mitchell stuff and in 1192 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 1: the ten men on the field and all the penalties. 1193 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 1: That last two minutes of the first half all the 1194 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 1: way around was not good. 1195 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 4: Ninety six yards ninety six it a little bit further there. 1196 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 4: But Yeah, I don't know if I can go with 1197 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,239 Speaker 4: the Colts should have been milking more clock. Frankly, I 1198 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 4: just think you should defend ninety six yards of turf 1199 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 4: better than they did. 1200 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you probably can feel pretty good about 1201 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: pinning him back at that point. 1202 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, when Sanchez had that punt, I mean, 1203 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 4: that was that was wizardry by him. And then you know, 1204 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 4: and the Rams, if I remember correctly, I think they 1205 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 4: ran it on one of those first couple of plays. 1206 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 4: I think they were still in like the let's see 1207 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,799 Speaker 4: what we can do here, Like, it's not like they 1208 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 4: came out throwing it right away. And then I think 1209 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 4: Nikoua had well, I'm sure he had some big play 1210 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 4: on that drive, and I think DeVante Adams had a 1211 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 4: couple of moments too, even before the touchdown there. So yeah, 1212 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,840 Speaker 4: Lou and Rumo will speak to the media later Today'd 1213 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 4: be very curious his answers. Not only Puka and akou 1214 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:02,640 Speaker 4: related ten ments related, but if he's ready to put 1215 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 4: the relationship with Xavier and Howard to the side. 1216 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:07,719 Speaker 1: Well they've got another chance to turn the page again. 1217 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,640 Speaker 1: As I mentioned a moment ago, Raiders coming up on Sunday, 1218 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 1: and you would think the way the Raiders seem discombobulated 1219 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 1: new coaching staff, I don't know what the talent situation 1220 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: is up and down. The roster doesn't seem very deep, 1221 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: but they are struggling mightily right now. Yeah. 1222 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 3: I mean, my dad's a Raiders fan, so I get Raiders' 1223 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 3: updates weekly and Mark, you will enjoy this. When I 1224 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 3: called him to talk about what happened against Cyrus, Yeah, 1225 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 3: he was heartbroken. He was like and then and he 1226 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,279 Speaker 3: does this every year, and I mean this every year. 1227 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 3: As a Raiders fan. I'm like, dude, I tell you 1228 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 3: you're not gonna be good. And he's like, you don't 1229 00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:44,520 Speaker 3: know what you're talking about. It's a new year. A 1230 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:46,440 Speaker 3: month and two he's like, James, we ain't gonna be 1231 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 3: good this year. I told you this already. So jokes aside. 1232 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 3: I do think that this Raiders team with Geno Smith, 1233 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,279 Speaker 3: I think Geno is kind of due to have a 1234 00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 3: better game than he's had throughout the first month of 1235 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 3: the season, so that you know, it doesn't scare me, 1236 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 3: but it's something to keep you know, your ears up for. 1237 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,880 Speaker 3: It's like, hey, a guy that's talented, Grant. I wouldn't 1238 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:07,720 Speaker 3: put him in like you know, he's a top ten quarterback, 1239 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,239 Speaker 3: but I think that he's had moments where you can 1240 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,440 Speaker 3: be very good. Is that moment coming Sunday? How alert 1241 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,399 Speaker 3: do you have to be for that? And to Kevin's point, 1242 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,879 Speaker 3: if Xavion Howard is out there, is that's your get 1243 00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 3: right game because you just target whoever he's covering. So 1244 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 3: I am very curious to see what Lunar Rumo hasked 1245 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 3: to say, And also what the Colts do, because I 1246 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 3: think I've gotten to the point, Kevin, where what Xavion Howard? 1247 00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,439 Speaker 3: It can't get any worse if you play someone else, 1248 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,239 Speaker 3: Like I mean, just play the undrafted rookie at this point, 1249 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:38,880 Speaker 3: because Xavion Howard looks so poor out there, honestly, and 1250 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,720 Speaker 3: talking to him after the game, he was not interested 1251 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 3: talking to us, which I understand, but he didn't face 1252 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 3: the music a little bit. And I was asking him, Hey, 1253 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,720 Speaker 3: did you think that they were picking on you in coverage? 1254 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 3: And he was like, you know, didn't really answer that question. Oh, 1255 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 3: you know, the balls in the air has got to 1256 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 3: make a play. And I said, well, how would you 1257 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 3: assess your performance yourself? And I think I got maybe 1258 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 3: a three word answer forward answer. He said, not to 1259 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 3: my ability. And I was thinking, maybe that's past ability, 1260 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 3: because granted his resume is great, but who he is 1261 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:07,920 Speaker 3: now that that player I think is gone. 1262 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:11,240 Speaker 4: Two things for Howard that sticks out to me right now, James, yesterday, 1263 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:14,840 Speaker 4: I referenced hearing the Colts talk about Howard is reminiscent 1264 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 4: of Frank Reich talking about Adam Vineri during the forty 1265 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 4: six year old held on and kept on referring to 1266 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 4: the past history, and it's like, look, at some point 1267 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:26,879 Speaker 4: we can celebrate the past history, but you can't let 1268 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 4: that mirror what's happening right here in the present and 1269 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,239 Speaker 4: thirty two year old corners it can go in a 1270 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 4: hurry here now with Howard specifically, two things that are 1271 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 4: really bothering me right now. It's obvious to watch the 1272 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 4: catches against him. Yeah, One, I see some effort, Yes 1273 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 4: that I'm glad. You want to be real bother something. 1274 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 4: If I was Chris Hewitt, Jerome Henderson his position coaches 1275 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:57,320 Speaker 4: like I'm talking the catches made and he is. He's nonchalant. Yeah, 1276 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 4: for the world a couple of play, So that would 1277 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,680 Speaker 4: be bothered for me. And then two, it's this life 1278 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 4: of an NFL corner oftentimes is hey, amnesia, you're gonna 1279 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,400 Speaker 4: you're gonna get burnt, but you're also gonna have some 1280 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 4: good plays in there if you look at it right now. 1281 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,760 Speaker 4: I believe I looked it up yesterday. Xavier and Howard 1282 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,680 Speaker 4: has played two hundred and eleven defensive snaps this season. 1283 00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 4: That's a big number. I think it's fourth on the Colts. 1284 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 3: So far. 1285 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:26,680 Speaker 4: He doesn't have a single pass broken up. So it's 1286 00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 4: not like there's any good in there. There's not like 1287 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 4: the well remember in that game when he had the 1288 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 4: interception or you know he had that really good couple 1289 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,880 Speaker 4: of pass breakups here there, and yeah, you're gonna get burnt. 1290 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 4: It's life in the NFL. As a corner, you're not 1291 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 4: seeing any of that. I mean, Jonathan Edwards, you undrafted corner. 1292 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 4: That dude got on the field for what four STAPs 1293 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,160 Speaker 4: on Sunday he broke up a pass. We're talking an 1294 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 4: undrafted rookie here. So those two things. Yes, you can 1295 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 4: look at Howard and the amount of catches he's given 1296 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,800 Speaker 4: up so far, that should be enough, but his effort 1297 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 4: post catch and then also where the good place, Like 1298 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 4: there's not even out. 1299 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:08,040 Speaker 3: The football recovery in week one, that's about it. 1300 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 1: But that's just being in the right place at the 1301 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 1: right time. 1302 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,200 Speaker 3: I mean, but I was saying that to kind of 1303 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 3: highlight that letter is literally the only positive player I 1304 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 3: can think of. 1305 00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 4: There's nothing coverage that I've seen from him. So again, 1306 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 4: Lou and Orumo going to talk today. We'll see how 1307 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 4: he goes. And you know, when Chaine Stekin speaks yesterday 1308 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:27,480 Speaker 4: and we can play that audio here in a little bit. 1309 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 4: You know he is a talented player. Well, it's like 1310 00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 4: not to get into tenses here, but is or was 1311 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 4: he's been talented? Okay, Ben, is he still talented? Because 1312 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:41,800 Speaker 4: that's a real question with a thirty two year old 1313 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 4: corner when he didn't play football last year. So far, 1314 00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 4: through four weeks, I ain't seen it. 1315 00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:48,680 Speaker 1: Not passing the test so far, Mark, people are doubting 1316 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 1: your abilities. Nick says, nobody spun discs in the studio 1317 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 1: since Jim Harbaugh took the cults to the point. 1318 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 3: And that's true. There's no CD player here. There's no uh, 1319 00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 3: there's nothing like that. There's no jukebox. 1320 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 10: Base. 1321 00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: It's modern day spinning the disc you got, the computer 1322 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:04,400 Speaker 1: screens you got in front of you. 1323 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,439 Speaker 3: Three that I four that I can see one two 1324 00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:06,959 Speaker 3: through five. 1325 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 5: If you ask your children, the radiation I'm absorbing every 1326 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 5: day is insane. 1327 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:15,959 Speaker 1: Apparently it hasn't affected your ability to you know, grow 1328 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 1: the family. 1329 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:23,479 Speaker 5: No anything I've reverse sized. Wow, Okay, say my question 1330 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 5: for later. 1331 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 4: Then mark your level of belief in your cubs with 1332 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 4: October coming tomorrow. 1333 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 5: It would be higher if Kate Horton was playing This 1334 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 5: Cubs team has been up and down, to say the 1335 00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 5: least when it comes to offense, so hopefully Kyle Tucker 1336 00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,680 Speaker 5: is back in the lineup. I think I like this 1337 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 5: matchup against the Padres, but the Padres are no slouches. 1338 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 5: They are they have pretty talented So I was going 1339 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:49,919 Speaker 5: to be bold and say I still think the Cubs 1340 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 5: will go farther than the Brewers and the playoffs. That 1341 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,640 Speaker 5: was my hot take heading into the postseason. I'm sure 1342 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 5: Joel A. Rickson is spitting out his coffee this morning. 1343 00:59:57,480 --> 00:59:59,480 Speaker 5: If Cubs win, they get the Brewers, right, they get 1344 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 5: the Brewers, So that would be highly intriguing to me. 1345 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 3: Red's Dodgers winner gets the Phillies. Yep, I have my 1346 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,600 Speaker 3: bracket right. What about you guys with the Reds the 1347 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 3: bandwagon jumpers?

You would just get pain and suffering and 1356 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 1: misery all over again. 1357 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 3: Gosh, that is so mature by you.

Anyways? 1392 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 4: In a three games here the fliction tactical right, the 1393 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 4: winner green in game one, and the pitching staff the 1394 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,760 Speaker 4: Reds have I do again? Three game series? 1395 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 3: Man? 1396 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:14,360 Speaker 4: Mark, you were celebrating a two game series win earlier 1397 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 4: this year like it was the you know, a parade 1398 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 4: down Waveland. 1399 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 3: If you play a two game series and you win 1400 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 3: both games, if there's no third game played, didn't you 1401 01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 3: sweep that series? 1402 01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:27,920 Speaker 4: And he gives you eight innings and one hell, can 1403 01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:30,320 Speaker 4: the red score two runs? That's probably the bigger question. 1404 01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 4: But if he gives you a gem, I mean, now, 1405 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, you put all the pressure on 1406 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 4: the biggest payroll in baseball yep, and again the Dodgers. 1407 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,480 Speaker 4: I mean, for a payroll standpoint, they're gonna feel more 1408 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 4: of that pressure. Granted, the Reds I won a series 1409 01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 4: in what thirty years? 1410 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 5: The Dodgers' bullpen is a mess, though they're averaging like 1411 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 5: a six e R at the moment. 1412 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 4: With the three game series, mark is you can then 1413 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 4: take your start. You know, you can take a starter 1414 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,560 Speaker 4: or two and throw them in the pen like I 1415 01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 4: think Otani I assume would be penciled in for Game 1416 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 4: three with them, But if you really wanted to get 1417 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,600 Speaker 4: funky with it, you know, you could put several starters 1418 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,160 Speaker 4: in the pen and then you play that game. So 1419 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:10,200 Speaker 4: I you know, when the MLB expanded the playoffs, pardon me, thought, 1420 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 4: oh boy, is this a little participation trophy? 1421 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 3: And then when it benefits your team, you're like, here 1422 01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 3: we go. 1423 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 4: The Mets are deader than the Reds.

But hopefully you're gett Kyle 1470 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:26,560 Speaker 5: Tucker back in line up, which he's been sidelined for 1471 01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:28,960 Speaker 5: a little bit. That'd be a nice boom for the offense. 1472 01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 5: But the Padres are a tough team, got a high payroll, 1473 01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,880 Speaker 5: they got a good pitching staff.

We got more playoffs tonight 1493 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:28,960 Speaker 1: the w NBA style. It'll be Game five of the 1494 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,919 Speaker 1: Las Vegas Aces hosting the Indiana Fever nine thirty tip, 1495 01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 1: nine to fifteen, Airtime with Eddie Garrison A ninety three 1496 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 1: five one oh seven to five of the fan. What's 1497 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 1: the key? How do the Fever pull this off? James Boyd? 1498 01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 3: They scored more points than the other team. But other 1499 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 3: than that, I think, in all seriousness, Chelsea Mitchell has 1500 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:47,880 Speaker 3: to have a big game. I think every time she's 1501 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 3: been off of this series, they've been losing, and so 1502 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 3: you expect her to see a lot of different defenses, 1503 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:56,200 Speaker 3: and can't you counter that by just making some incredible shots? 1504 01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:58,400 Speaker 3: And I thought that that's what happened in game four. 1505 01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 3: And then on top of that, what do the others 1506 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 3: do again? Aleah Boston, Kelsey Mitchell have been great. Can 1507 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:06,160 Speaker 3: you get Addie sys SEMs to have another big game? 1508 01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 3: She had eighteen points last game, Lexi Hall, we know 1509 01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 3: what she does defensively, in the effort she gives. Can 1510 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 3: she give you a couple of three balls? Just things 1511 01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 3: like that to keep you know, the aces honest. And 1512 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:17,080 Speaker 3: I think again, if it gets down to the wire, 1513 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:18,560 Speaker 3: you like your chances. 1514 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,680 Speaker 4: James, I've called Odyssey Simms. Lance Stevenson, you pointed out, oh, 1515 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:23,880 Speaker 4: very well in game four. It was good, Lance, it 1516 01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:27,280 Speaker 4: was good Odyssey. What's tonight? I think that's a huge 1517 01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 4: storyline too for this game? 1518 01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:31,120 Speaker 1: All right? The doubleheader Monday night football. Last night, the 1519 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:34,200 Speaker 1: Dolphins defeated the Jets at home, twenty seven to twenty one. 1520 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 1: But it looks like they've lost not looks like they 1521 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 1: have lost Tyreek Hill for the rest of the season. 1522 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 1: Mark you said it. 1523 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:43,400 Speaker 3: Was confirmed that there were multiple ligament tears right and 1524 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 3: dislocated knee. Multiple ligament tears including his ACL, so there's 1525 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 3: no even guarantee that he is going to be ready 1526 01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 3: for the twenty twenty sixth season, and he's undergoing surgery today. 1527 01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 1: Man, I hate when I see that Broncos won the 1528 01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:59,200 Speaker 1: night cap over at the Bengals twenty eight to three. Man, 1529 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,760 Speaker 1: that offense was working. Bo Nick's three hundred and twenty 1530 01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:05,640 Speaker 1: six yards two touchdowns, also ran for a touchdown. JK 1531 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 1: Dobbins sixteen carries one hundred and one yards, and everything 1532 01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 1: was coming up roses for Sean Payton's team last night. 1533 01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:15,800 Speaker 1: Looking forward to college football this week, and of course 1534 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 1: I'm really interested to see this Illinois team at Purdue 1535 01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:21,400 Speaker 1: to see how far Purdue has come. I know in 1536 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:23,840 Speaker 1: Illinois's going to be a pretty big favorite, but can 1537 01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 1: they hang in this game coming both. 1538 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 4: You'd hope coming out of a bye week. Yeah, one 1539 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,000 Speaker 4: of a ten point underdog. I think I saw there. 1540 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,120 Speaker 4: So you know, Burry Otam sook yesterday. They have to 1541 01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:34,960 Speaker 4: run the football better. But you know, Ryan Brown's had 1542 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 4: some moments and you know, you certainly were competitive in 1543 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 4: Notre Dame for a half until it really changed. You know, 1544 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 4: USC obviously had the red zone turnovers. So yeah, I 1545 01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 4: do think it's important week for Purdue and trying to 1546 01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:49,080 Speaker 4: not only have the Hey moral victory, but I'm about 1547 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 4: trying to pull off an upset Kevin. 1548 01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:52,400 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about this to Tom Watson 1549 01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: apologizing to the Europeans for rude US fans at Bethpage 1550 01:08:56,439 --> 01:09:00,679 Speaker 1: Black this past weekend was We're lines clearly crossed here 1551 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 1: with fandom. 1552 01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 3: I'm missing the Tom Watson. 1553 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 4: What does Tom Watson have anything to do with former 1554 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 4: former Ryder Cup captain, former former respect your elders. Yeah, 1555 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,800 Speaker 4: he was an awful captain. Let's be clear on Tom 1556 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,880 Speaker 4: Watson's history and the Ryder Cup. Uh yeah, I think 1557 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:19,840 Speaker 4: based on some of the footage you see, yeah, they uh, 1558 01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:22,760 Speaker 4: they did probably cross the line. And the Europeans are 1559 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:24,679 Speaker 4: better than us at golf, They're better than us at chanting, 1560 01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 4: they're better than us at singing. That was abundantly clear. 1561 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:29,160 Speaker 4: And watching the Ryder Cup and watching them celebrate, I 1562 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,800 Speaker 4: was so jealous of their party. It looked awesome. And 1563 01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:34,400 Speaker 4: shout out to Rory McIlroy because two years ago he 1564 01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 4: called it that they would come to Beth Page and 1565 01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 4: win and what do they do? 1566 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 1: It came to Beth pageon one they did all right, 1567 01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:42,400 Speaker 1: Mark d even coming up in a moment. I believe 1568 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:44,559 Speaker 1: we will talk more fever with the one and only 1569 01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:45,160 Speaker 1: Pat Boylan. 1570 01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:45,759 Speaker 3: Is that correct? 1571 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:50,640 Speaker 1: Forty that's just about thirteen minutes away right here? On 1572 01:09:50,720 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one on seven five? 1573 01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:56,040 Speaker 3: Hey, Kevin, how was prom Oh?

I'll be 1576 01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:02,200 Speaker 3: up in my room. You know, I'm just trying to 1577 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 3: give absolutely zero details. 1578 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 1: You didn't share all the details. 1579 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 4: Whatsoever there, So mom, I apologize and now mama had 1580 01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:13,679 Speaker 4: a great time. Now I'm feeling it from Shane Ssyke 1581 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:15,120 Speaker 4: and here I am at the age of thirty six. 1582 01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:19,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Shane James, I get the vibe. 1583 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:22,240 Speaker 4: Schanstike In is pretty darn confident in his football team 1584 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:25,960 Speaker 4: and they're three and one, and I think overall, you 1585 01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 4: have to be very very pleased with where you are 1586 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:32,320 Speaker 4: at schedule wise, there's an opportunity record to certainly build 1587 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,920 Speaker 4: on it. I do think there are some questions we'll 1588 01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:36,360 Speaker 4: probably get to examing Howard a little bit in the 1589 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:39,160 Speaker 4: nine o'clock hour you must address. But I think all 1590 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:42,120 Speaker 4: in all, shaninstike In really likes his bunch, and I 1591 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:44,360 Speaker 4: get why there are a lot of things that you 1592 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:46,840 Speaker 4: do that you should feel good about with this Colt 1593 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 4: steam through four weeks. 1594 01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:52,200 Speaker 3: Absolutely, you gave away a touchdown and you probably still 1595 01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 3: should have won that game against what many to believe 1596 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 3: a Super Bowl contender is in the Los Angeles Rams, 1597 01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:01,240 Speaker 3: So there was a bit of a silver lining. There 1598 01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:03,439 Speaker 3: is just hard to feel it after a loss like 1599 01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:07,519 Speaker 3: that and in which there were so many self inflicted wounds. 1600 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 3: And I know we say that as a cliche, but boy, 1601 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 3: when you have eleven penalties for Rady eight yards and 1602 01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 3: you drop a touchdown that should have been a score 1603 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,439 Speaker 3: because you were a show voting Adie Mitchell, When you 1604 01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 3: have the holding call that you know negates the JT 1605 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:23,120 Speaker 3: credit crazy run at the end of the game, you 1606 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:25,800 Speaker 3: have two interceptions from Daniel Jones, all those things and 1607 01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 3: you still were in the game. I think you look 1608 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:29,600 Speaker 3: at that and say, hey, if we just you know, 1609 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 3: clean these couple of things up, we are able to 1610 01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 3: go out there and compep with anybody. 1611 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:36,000 Speaker 1: I think the big question moving forward, though they got 1612 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:38,200 Speaker 1: a little bit more pass rush this past week. 1613 01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 4: Again, one of the more encouraging elements maybe they got 1614 01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:46,320 Speaker 4: to do encouraging element to Sunday was how that pass 1615 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 4: rush down up three sacks, nine hits on Stafford and 1616 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 4: the Rams. I know they were missing their left guard, 1617 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:54,080 Speaker 4: but it's not like they were banged up across the 1618 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:56,640 Speaker 4: board there. So I do think that's something you can 1619 01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:57,240 Speaker 4: definitely build on. 1620 01:11:57,479 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 1: All right, So we'll get back to that coming up 1621 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,040 Speaker 1: at a few minutes. But as I mentioned, the Fever 1622 01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:04,240 Speaker 1: going for it all tonight game five to get into 1623 01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:06,680 Speaker 1: the w NBA Finals.

This is a real early 1643 01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 12: one for me. 1644 01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:05,639 Speaker 3: I almost called you on my way on this morning. 1645 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:08,599 Speaker 12: You know what I've been Actually, I'm standing here at 1646 01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:10,920 Speaker 12: Gamebridgefield House for your visual I've actually been here since 1647 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 12: six o'clock doing morning hit. So this is like look 1648 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:16,000 Speaker 12: up the station. So this is like number eleven for me. 1649 01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:19,680 Speaker 12: I'm warmed up. So let's go. Yeah, you know, obviously 1650 01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 12: the game out in Vegas tonight massive one chance to 1651 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:26,519 Speaker 12: go to the WNBA Finals. There's some interesting potential history 1652 01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:30,120 Speaker 12: repeating itself here because ten years ago, almost to the day, 1653 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 12: the head coach of the Indiana Fever was Stephanie White 1654 01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 12: and they were the four seed that year. Nobody expected 1655 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:40,840 Speaker 12: them to make the WNBA Finals, but they got there, 1656 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,559 Speaker 12: and in fact, that team, a little bit like last 1657 01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,120 Speaker 12: year's Pacers, went all the way to the final game 1658 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 12: of the finals that was a five game series and 1659 01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:52,040 Speaker 12: nearly pulled up a pulled off a historic upset to 1660 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:55,599 Speaker 12: win a championship. So ten years later, here will history 1661 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:59,240 Speaker 12: repeat itself. The Stephanie White led Indiana Fever are trying 1662 01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:02,519 Speaker 12: to go back against all odds to the WNBA Finals, 1663 01:14:02,520 --> 01:14:04,680 Speaker 12: and they'll do so with a win tonight out in 1664 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:05,400 Speaker 12: Las Vegas. 1665 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 4: Well, I commend you Pat for the early wake up call. Now, 1666 01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:09,840 Speaker 4: how's the play and the rest of the day. Do 1667 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,600 Speaker 4: we just go Joe after Joe after Joe and the 1668 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:14,640 Speaker 4: cup the rest of the day or are. 1669 01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:16,599 Speaker 3: We napping it? I mean, nine thirty is no joke 1670 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:17,479 Speaker 3: on a Tuesday night. 1671 01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:20,320 Speaker 12: Yeah, we can't risk not being able to stay up 1672 01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:22,040 Speaker 12: for the game. So I think I've got a nap 1673 01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:24,080 Speaker 12: in me. At some point. Do have a couple of 1674 01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 12: you know, pacers, as you know, right around the corner, 1675 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 12: So I actually have a couple of pacers meetings after this. 1676 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:30,280 Speaker 12: But at some point I'm going to try to sneak 1677 01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 12: that nap in because need to be alert for the 1678 01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:33,679 Speaker 12: BEG gamer tonight. 1679 01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:35,960 Speaker 4: Indeed, the first training camp practice for the Pacers coming 1680 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 4: up later today. Pat Boyling of course with us here 1681 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:41,240 Speaker 4: on the Payless Stickers hotline. All right, Pat, the obvious 1682 01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:43,559 Speaker 4: is clear. In game four, you saw it, Aliah Boston, 1683 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:45,960 Speaker 4: Kelsey Mitchell. They played like the all stars that they 1684 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:49,679 Speaker 4: are if I removed them from these storylines for tonight. 1685 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:52,760 Speaker 4: James brought up Odyssey Sims in game four. I kind 1686 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 4: of get Lance Stevenson, Viz from or some really good 1687 01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:58,559 Speaker 4: some other nights. I'm like, oh boy, where would you 1688 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,439 Speaker 4: point to again, Non Mitchell, Non Boston for storylines tonight. 1689 01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1690 01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:05,640 Speaker 12: I think Ottissey Sims and Lexi Hull are probably the 1691 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:07,519 Speaker 12: next two players that jump out to me. 1692 01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:07,840 Speaker 3: You know. 1693 01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:09,640 Speaker 12: The thing that just stood out the most to me 1694 01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:13,080 Speaker 12: was the Fever were in game four of a WNBA 1695 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 12: semi finals with a chance to move one game away 1696 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,880 Speaker 12: from getting to the finals. And Odyssey Sims is not 1697 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 12: just running point guard, but I mean she's making plays. 1698 01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 12: And another player that was out there, Brianna Turner. She's 1699 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,479 Speaker 12: been on the roster all season, but she had a 1700 01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:30,120 Speaker 12: couple months stretch where she wasn't playing at all, and 1701 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:33,360 Speaker 12: yet these two are on the floor. Imagine saying that 1702 01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:34,280 Speaker 12: at the beginning. 1703 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 3: Of the year. 1704 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 12: It would have been really hard to believe. It's just 1705 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:38,400 Speaker 12: kind of a great example of the next woman up 1706 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:41,360 Speaker 12: mentality in the resiliency that this team has shown. So 1707 01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:44,200 Speaker 12: those two players, Ottysey Sims and Lexi Hull probably stand 1708 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 12: out the most to me. You know, it seems like 1709 01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:49,840 Speaker 12: when Hull has a good game, the Fever almost always win. 1710 01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:54,920 Speaker 12: She's always impactsful defensively, So what I'm referencing here is 1711 01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:57,400 Speaker 12: when she has a good offensive game, because that defense 1712 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:00,360 Speaker 12: travels for her and is consistent night in the night out. 1713 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 12: And then the other, maybe bigger picture thing that jumps 1714 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:05,519 Speaker 12: out to me is just the Fever's ability to get 1715 01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:07,600 Speaker 12: into the paint. You know, Asia Wilson is not just 1716 01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:10,840 Speaker 12: the MVP, but she's also the defensive player of the year. 1717 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 12: And if you look at this series so far and 1718 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:16,479 Speaker 12: Indiana's wins forty six points per game in the paint, 1719 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,639 Speaker 12: in their losses thirty four points per game in the paint, 1720 01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:23,360 Speaker 12: that's a significant difference. And not just because you know, 1721 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:25,800 Speaker 12: scoring in around the rim is of course important in 1722 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:29,679 Speaker 12: of itself, but also I think the ability to attack 1723 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 12: and get inside and get paint touches also sets up 1724 01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:36,000 Speaker 12: your three point shooting, and that's really important as well. 1725 01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:37,400 Speaker 3: So I think you look. 1726 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 12: At that points in the paint number at the end 1727 01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:43,519 Speaker 12: of today and I think what that looks like might 1728 01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:46,519 Speaker 12: be indicative of the results and who ultimately comes away 1729 01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:46,840 Speaker 12: with a win. 1730 01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:49,920 Speaker 3: Pat Boiler joining us here on the Paylos Slickers hot 1731 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 3: line in his dulcet tones according to jeff Rickards, So 1732 01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:56,560 Speaker 3: I had to look up at what that word meant, 1733 01:16:56,600 --> 01:17:00,400 Speaker 3: but it's very complimentary of you and your ability, you know, 1734 01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 3: the airways with the one thing I wanted to kind 1735 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:04,280 Speaker 3: of look at when it comes to this team. I 1736 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,600 Speaker 3: know we kind of pivot away from Aliah Boston and 1737 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,759 Speaker 3: Kelsey Mitchell to start this conversation, but going back to Aliah, 1738 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:13,519 Speaker 3: how impressed have you been with her effort on both ends? 1739 01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:15,439 Speaker 3: When you're going to be a great player, they're going 1740 01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 3: to get theirs. But to be going tip for tap 1741 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:20,679 Speaker 3: with Asan Wilson, what do you think that says about 1742 01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 3: the growth we've seen from Aaliah Boston. 1743 01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:23,680 Speaker 1: Well, that's exactly it. 1744 01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,480 Speaker 12: James and I think it is maybe the biggest individual 1745 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:29,519 Speaker 12: storyline of this series is that there have been a 1746 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:33,760 Speaker 12: couple of games where Aliah Boston has gone, you know, 1747 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:37,120 Speaker 12: even with the league's MVP, and the Fever have won 1748 01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:37,759 Speaker 12: those games. 1749 01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:38,720 Speaker 1: They look Game one, I. 1750 01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 12: Think she only had six points, but that didn't even 1751 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 12: begin to describe her impact. She had double digit rebounds, 1752 01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:48,320 Speaker 12: was fantastic on Wilson defensively, and Wilson had probably the 1753 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,000 Speaker 12: worst night of the playoffs so far and maybe if 1754 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:54,120 Speaker 12: her entire season, and the reason the Fever won that game. 1755 01:17:54,160 --> 01:17:56,920 Speaker 12: To me, lo Kelsey Mitchell was spectacular in that game, 1756 01:17:57,160 --> 01:17:59,880 Speaker 12: but I almost point to Aliah Boston in Game one 1757 01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:03,120 Speaker 12: equally just because of her defensive impact on Asia Wilson. 1758 01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:05,840 Speaker 12: Then fast forward to game number four on Sunday here 1759 01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:08,799 Speaker 12: at the Fieldhouse, and you're I mean, those two played 1760 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:13,519 Speaker 12: almost exactly even. And when you can play even the MVP, 1761 01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:16,680 Speaker 12: to me, that sets everything else up for success. I 1762 01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 12: think the other good thing from the Fever standpoint is, 1763 01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:23,559 Speaker 12: you know, unlike game number one, Wilson was great, in 1764 01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:27,000 Speaker 12: Game number four, Boston just you know, essentially matched her 1765 01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:29,519 Speaker 12: a few less points but more rebounds. But I think 1766 01:18:29,520 --> 01:18:31,599 Speaker 12: it was good for the Fever to win a game 1767 01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:34,439 Speaker 12: where Asia Wilson was on her a game, because I 1768 01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:37,200 Speaker 12: think it just showed them you know that if game 1769 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:41,160 Speaker 12: five goes a similar way where I mean, this is 1770 01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:43,559 Speaker 12: what tends to happen in these do or die games 1771 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 12: in the history of Golden WNBA and the NBA, the 1772 01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:51,640 Speaker 12: star players tend to take over the MVPs act like MVPs. 1773 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 12: So realistically, you're probably not holding Asia Wilson to something 1774 01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:58,559 Speaker 12: like eleven points here tonight. But the Fever showed themselves 1775 01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:01,639 Speaker 12: on Sunday that Wilson can score thirty and they can 1776 01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:05,000 Speaker 12: still win, and I think that's important too. So, you know, 1777 01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:07,120 Speaker 12: to answer your question on a Leah, she has been 1778 01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:09,800 Speaker 12: as young as she is just in her third year 1779 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:12,840 Speaker 12: of her career, she has been so spectacular, I think 1780 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:17,479 Speaker 12: just from a poise and an efficiency perspective, if nothing else, 1781 01:19:17,760 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 12: she brings so much to the game, and you know, 1782 01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:23,240 Speaker 12: it's amazing to watch what she's doing at such a 1783 01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:25,200 Speaker 12: young age. You know, people don't realize she's only a 1784 01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:27,879 Speaker 12: few months older than Caitlin Clark. Now, she was drafted 1785 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:29,760 Speaker 12: a year ahead, but in terms of her age, she's 1786 01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 12: still one of the youngest players in the league, and 1787 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:34,960 Speaker 12: that you know, can't be set aside and looking at 1788 01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 12: everything that she's doing here so far, because when you 1789 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:39,640 Speaker 12: watch her, she doesn't appear like a young player, but 1790 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:42,559 Speaker 12: she still really is a very young player in this 1791 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 12: league and still growing but performing at a very high 1792 01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:45,719 Speaker 12: level already. 1793 01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:47,920 Speaker 1: You know, to take that one step further too, I've 1794 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,560 Speaker 1: been making this contention all along. If you took a 1795 01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:53,719 Speaker 1: Leah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell put them on any team 1796 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:56,519 Speaker 1: in a WWA, that's a heck of a couple of 1797 01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,639 Speaker 1: pillars to build a team around. And as great as 1798 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:02,720 Speaker 1: these players have been at stepping up and doing a 1799 01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 1: lot more than we ever expected them to do, those 1800 01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:07,400 Speaker 1: two could start for just to I mean, that's as 1801 01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:10,360 Speaker 1: good a do as there is in the league, isn't there? Yeah? 1802 01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,599 Speaker 12: I mean no question. I think Kelsey Mitchell is going 1803 01:20:12,640 --> 01:20:15,080 Speaker 12: to be first team All WNBA, and I think Aleah 1804 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:17,360 Speaker 12: b Austin has a good shot at being second team 1805 01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:20,439 Speaker 12: All WNBA. And if that happens, you're talking about two 1806 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 12: of the top ten individual seasons in the league this 1807 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,720 Speaker 12: year being on the fever. And it's especially remarkable to 1808 01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:30,559 Speaker 12: say that sentence and to not be talking about Caitlin Clark, who, 1809 01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:33,200 Speaker 12: of course won't make it only because she's been injured. 1810 01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:36,679 Speaker 12: But Clark in her rookie year was on first team 1811 01:20:36,680 --> 01:20:40,080 Speaker 12: All WNBA and finished fourth in the MVP. And now 1812 01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:41,880 Speaker 12: you start to say some of that and you start 1813 01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:44,320 Speaker 12: to think, you know, man, what could be possible here 1814 01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:46,439 Speaker 12: in the future or even this year if you had Clark, 1815 01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:49,320 Speaker 12: And it really makes you, you know, lament that injury. 1816 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:51,559 Speaker 12: Some it's been so frustrating not to have her on 1817 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:54,479 Speaker 12: the floor, But I think I think this run has 1818 01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:57,600 Speaker 12: been good to show that, Look, there's no doubt the 1819 01:20:57,640 --> 01:21:00,320 Speaker 12: Fever need Caitlin Clark to reach their ceilings. He's a 1820 01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 12: spectacular player and ultimately, you know, to win the championships 1821 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 12: that I think this franchise will, they'll need Caitlin Clark 1822 01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:08,599 Speaker 12: on the floor to do that. But I think it's 1823 01:21:08,640 --> 01:21:11,320 Speaker 12: been a great show and a great spotlight for Kelsey 1824 01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:14,439 Speaker 12: Mitchell and a Leah Boston because there are still really 1825 01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:17,600 Speaker 12: good players on this team not named Caitlin Clark. And 1826 01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:20,680 Speaker 12: I think especially in these scenarios, you know, there's a 1827 01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 12: lot of pressure on those two because when you have 1828 01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:26,639 Speaker 12: this many injuries, your margin for error is just so 1829 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:29,880 Speaker 12: so slim. You have to have your all stars play 1830 01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:33,080 Speaker 12: well because you just don't have the normal bodies that 1831 01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,679 Speaker 12: you typically have. I think it's a major key tonight. 1832 01:21:35,720 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 12: It's an obvious one, which is you know, like Kevin 1833 01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:40,840 Speaker 12: kind of said besides those two as we began the conversation, 1834 01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:44,479 Speaker 12: But it's a massive key. But it's an important one. 1835 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:47,080 Speaker 12: Your all stars have to play like all stars when 1836 01:21:47,120 --> 01:21:49,400 Speaker 12: you are this shorthanded and your margin for air is 1837 01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:51,519 Speaker 12: what it is. And I think, you know, what Kelsey 1838 01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:53,840 Speaker 12: Mitchell and a Leah Boston have done for this team, 1839 01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 12: especially considering the circumstances, has been, in my opinion, one 1840 01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:01,479 Speaker 12: of the great storylines, not just in the WNBA this year, 1841 01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:02,919 Speaker 12: but really in all of sports. 1842 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 1: Last thing for me, Pat, with all the discussion around 1843 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:08,559 Speaker 1: the league and the officiating this year, what's your worry 1844 01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:12,200 Speaker 1: quotient like that we'll be talking about officials as much 1845 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 1: as we are talking about great play tomorrow after this 1846 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 1: game five? 1847 01:22:14,840 --> 01:22:18,040 Speaker 12: Oh gosh, I hope not. I hope that's not the case. 1848 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:20,599 Speaker 12: I guess I haven't really thought of it in a 1849 01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:25,920 Speaker 12: in a quotient perspective. You know, it has become a storyline, 1850 01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:29,479 Speaker 12: No question of the playoffs this year and you know, 1851 01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:31,920 Speaker 12: maybe centered around other teams a little bit more than 1852 01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:35,360 Speaker 12: the fever. You know, I think you hope that you 1853 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 12: have a game where the officials, especially in a game, 1854 01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:40,479 Speaker 12: vib the do or die type situation. 1855 01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 2: You know. 1856 01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:43,400 Speaker 12: I just always hope the officials, any coach will ask 1857 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:47,360 Speaker 12: you that tell you that they just want things called evenly, 1858 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:49,880 Speaker 12: and when you get into these do or die one 1859 01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:52,519 Speaker 12: game to take the whole thing type of scenarios. I 1860 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 12: always feel like the best way to officiate games like 1861 01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:59,080 Speaker 12: that are to let the players play and to not 1862 01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:02,559 Speaker 12: be sending players constantly to the foul line. And if 1863 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:04,680 Speaker 12: you can do that and call it even and let 1864 01:23:04,760 --> 01:23:08,040 Speaker 12: the superstars on the floor determine the outcome of the 1865 01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:12,080 Speaker 12: game by not shooting free throws, I always think that's 1866 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 12: in everyone's best interest. It's got a huge spotlight tonight, 1867 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:18,560 Speaker 12: you know, because it's been such a topic of conversation. 1868 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:22,599 Speaker 12: I hope not I'm cautiously optimistic there that we will 1869 01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:26,000 Speaker 12: be talking tomorrow, you know, hopefully about what Kelsey Mitchell 1870 01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 12: and Aliah Boston did and unquestionably Asia Wilson and Jackie 1871 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,519 Speaker 12: Young and listen, there's four Olympic gold medalists on that 1872 01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:35,040 Speaker 12: Las Facis team, So they're really, really good. I sure 1873 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,160 Speaker 12: hope that's the storyline now we're talking about at the 1874 01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:39,400 Speaker 12: end of the day, I obviously hope the Fever win. 1875 01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:41,400 Speaker 12: I obviously hope we're talking about a trip to the 1876 01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:44,400 Speaker 12: WNBA Finals. But at the end of the day, I 1877 01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:47,920 Speaker 12: really hope we're talking about what these individual players did 1878 01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:50,799 Speaker 12: to ultimately force the outcome that happens. 1879 01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:52,439 Speaker 3: So watch it, Pat del find you. 1880 01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 1: Coming after Pat Boyling next. Yeah, get some rest, buddy, 1881 01:23:58,000 --> 01:23:59,400 Speaker 1: we'll talk to you soon.

Grew up with Pat. He 1888 01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:12,800 Speaker 4: was a great, great human again. Pacers training camp also 1889 01:24:12,920 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 4: opening up today, so busy time. 1890 01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 3: If I have this correct, you know, there's some post 1891 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 3: partice availability today. 1892 01:24:19,439 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, first training camp practice for the Pacers. They play 1893 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:25,960 Speaker 4: their first preseason game next Tuesday, so that's crazy. If 1894 01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:30,240 Speaker 4: the Fever win tonight, they will be in the WNBA Finals. 1895 01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:33,320 Speaker 4: They'll be the road team in a best of seven series, 1896 01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:37,360 Speaker 4: you could be looking at a home game next Wednesday Friday. 1897 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:39,960 Speaker 4: Those will be games three and four, So that means 1898 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:43,120 Speaker 4: next week you could be looking at a Friday fever 1899 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:50,800 Speaker 4: WNBA Finals home game. Saturday, I you at Oregon, and 1900 01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 4: then Sunday. 1901 01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:55,599 Speaker 1: I like that. That's that's my version of Jambi's sports arousal. 1902 01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:56,480 Speaker 1: But go ahead. 1903 01:24:56,760 --> 01:25:01,680 Speaker 4: Sunday Colt's home game. So how about that for a 1904 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:07,679 Speaker 4: little October weekends usually not necessarily in our market, you know, 1905 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:12,680 Speaker 4: Uber uber like Friday, Saturday, Sunday Boom boom boom. That's 1906 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,840 Speaker 4: a pretty good little trio there. As Jeff Record starts 1907 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:15,880 Speaker 4: feeling something. 1908 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:19,240 Speaker 1: I did appreciate that, All right, coming up in just 1909 01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:20,760 Speaker 1: a moment, we'll get back to the Colts and what 1910 01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:22,919 Speaker 1: they need to do to get over the rams and 1911 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,360 Speaker 1: get ready for the Las Vegas Raiders. Also, we'll check 1912 01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:28,720 Speaker 1: in heavy with the fan text line at two three 1913 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:30,519 Speaker 1: nine ten seventy. We'll leave it open up the lines 1914 01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:31,800 Speaker 1: if you want to get in at two three nine 1915 01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:34,160 Speaker 1: ten seventy the old fashioned way as well. It's all 1916 01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:36,479 Speaker 1: straight ahead ninety three five and one on seven five, 1917 01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:39,800 Speaker 1: just pointing out the text line is all on board 1918 01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 1: with the Reds. Kevin Bowen. Matt c says KB, the 1919 01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:46,439 Speaker 1: Reds will be playing next weekend as well, how about that. 1920 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:50,719 Speaker 4: Let's go Yeah, And it was pointed out too, Pacers 1921 01:25:50,760 --> 01:25:56,400 Speaker 4: do have a preseason home game with the Thunder next Saturday. Sandwiched, 1922 01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:59,519 Speaker 4: I believe you know, right after a game four the fever. 1923 01:25:59,560 --> 01:26:01,879 Speaker 4: So don't want to don't want to put preseason basketball 1924 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:04,600 Speaker 4: yet in the same breath as the other stuff. But nonetheless, 1925 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:07,280 Speaker 4: could be a very will be, could be a uber 1926 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 4: busy weekend here. 1927 01:26:09,160 --> 01:26:10,640 Speaker 3: I don't want to make that game eight to me 1928 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,720 Speaker 3: best of nine. Then we have a summer league game 1929 01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:16,000 Speaker 3: Pacers Thunder. This is true, but I think I think 1930 01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:17,840 Speaker 3: the lost that one was a run over. Going to 1931 01:26:17,840 --> 01:26:18,880 Speaker 3: re erase that from the memory. 1932 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:21,080 Speaker 4: I wanted to make sure we stuck this in from Aaron. 1933 01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:23,200 Speaker 4: I thought she pointed this out really well. We were 1934 01:26:23,240 --> 01:26:27,519 Speaker 4: talking with Pat boylan Uh Natasha Howard tonight, James, I 1935 01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:29,360 Speaker 4: know the other Howard right now in the city. We 1936 01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:32,000 Speaker 4: can maybe get to of Xavier and Howard with the Colts, 1937 01:26:32,040 --> 01:26:35,439 Speaker 4: but you think back to not only game one of 1938 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:37,760 Speaker 4: this series. Howard is very good, but that clinching game 1939 01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:41,120 Speaker 4: in Atlanta. She stepped up as well in that game. 1940 01:26:41,680 --> 01:26:43,439 Speaker 4: I get that she might be walking up one of 1941 01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:46,559 Speaker 4: the final few holes of her very illustreious career, but 1942 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 4: she has certainly been used to environments like tonight, unlike 1943 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,840 Speaker 4: probably a lot, frankly of the Fever players, So that 1944 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:54,880 Speaker 4: is worth pointing out. 1945 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:55,479 Speaker 3: I think as well. 1946 01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:58,680 Speaker 1: I would think she and Kelsey Mitchell really value this 1947 01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,920 Speaker 1: game five tonight just because they've been around for a while. 1948 01:27:02,720 --> 01:27:04,080 Speaker 1: Take all the value of no, but you know what 1949 01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying, like they truly appreciate the gift of how 1950 01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:10,439 Speaker 1: rare this opportunity is, where some of the younger players 1951 01:27:10,479 --> 01:27:10,840 Speaker 1: might not. 1952 01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:13,559 Speaker 3: I won't push back a little there, Jeman, I agree 1953 01:27:13,600 --> 01:27:15,479 Speaker 3: with your sentiment, but I think Kelsey Mitchell is still 1954 01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:18,080 Speaker 3: young from a playoff perspective. She hasn't been here before, 1955 01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:19,679 Speaker 3: and like you know, we look at the Tasha Howard, 1956 01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:22,640 Speaker 3: She's one Championships before, so she knows how hard it 1957 01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 3: is to win games like this, and so yeah, perhaps 1958 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:27,600 Speaker 3: she can give a little of that confidence to the 1959 01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:29,599 Speaker 3: rest of the group. And you know, this is someone 1960 01:27:29,640 --> 01:27:32,360 Speaker 3: who stepped up previously, like you said, in the Atlanta 1961 01:27:32,400 --> 01:27:35,200 Speaker 3: Dream series, we saw in the Commissioner's Cup final that 1962 01:27:35,280 --> 01:27:37,240 Speaker 3: she can have those sorts of nights, which turns back 1963 01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:39,280 Speaker 3: the clock and looks like the number one option. And 1964 01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:40,559 Speaker 3: so I'm not saying she has to be up tonight. 1965 01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 3: I think Kelsey Mitchell and Leah Bostill certainly carry a 1966 01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:44,920 Speaker 3: lot of that workload. But if you can get a 1967 01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:47,880 Speaker 3: big night from Ntasha Howard, that would be big, especially 1968 01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 3: if she can outplay someone like Melissa Smith, who I 1969 01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:51,920 Speaker 3: think has had a pretty good series so far. 1970 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:55,200 Speaker 1: Mark, you are quite the topic of conversation throughout the 1971 01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:57,920 Speaker 1: text line this morning. Oh Dan wants to know, how 1972 01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 1: are your five screens organized by worked? Are they random? 1973 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:03,639 Speaker 1: What is the set up over there? 1974 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 3: One is the streaming camera, two are for running the show, 1975 01:28:08,640 --> 01:28:12,720 Speaker 3: and then the other three are engineering. I don't touch those. 1976 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:16,320 Speaker 3: So six right plus a television. It's a television that's 1977 01:28:16,360 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 3: like eighteen inches. 1978 01:28:19,479 --> 01:28:22,640 Speaker 1: There you go more, you know, people have to know. 1979 01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 1: My buddy Brett wants to know. Can't remember if the 1980 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 1: pass play for the eight eight yard touchdown for the 1981 01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:30,360 Speaker 1: Rams was down the cult sideline or not, But just 1982 01:28:30,400 --> 01:28:33,000 Speaker 1: out of curiosity, could somebody have actually jumped into the 1983 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:36,120 Speaker 1: play from the sideline had that been legal, get that 1984 01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:38,040 Speaker 1: eleventh guy down there in the middle of the play, 1985 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:38,519 Speaker 1: I think. 1986 01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:40,519 Speaker 3: They just drew you as a touchdown at that point. 1987 01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:41,680 Speaker 3: I think they can actually do that. 1988 01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:46,080 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, gracious, they don't hate to add you though. No, 1989 01:28:46,120 --> 01:28:49,000 Speaker 1: I don't know either. Quite some time, the Cults try 1990 01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 1: to put it all behind them and get ready for 1991 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:54,960 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders and Kevin. My memory gets to 1992 01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,439 Speaker 1: be a bit foggy with games blending into each other. 1993 01:28:57,479 --> 01:29:01,000 Speaker 1: But haven't the Raiders proved problematic this team at home 1994 01:29:01,479 --> 01:29:04,040 Speaker 1: over the past when they have faced them, like three 1995 01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:04,760 Speaker 1: four years ago. 1996 01:29:05,960 --> 01:29:09,160 Speaker 4: I don't, I know, Derek Carr, if I remember correctly 1997 01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 4: beat them late in the twenty one season. That was 1998 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:13,840 Speaker 4: right before the Jacksonville game. I think I was kind 1999 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:15,880 Speaker 4: of a heavy COVID game. I think Colts won in 2000 01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:19,280 Speaker 4: Arizona on Christmas, lost a game to get in the 2001 01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 4: postseason with the Raiders, and then and I want to 2002 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:23,760 Speaker 4: say that was like interim head coach. And then I 2003 01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 4: think then they lost to Jacksonville that week seventeen. But 2004 01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 4: I remember that they beat eight O'Connell late in the 2005 01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:31,280 Speaker 4: season a few years ago, So it does seem like 2006 01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:35,000 Speaker 4: they show up pretty annually on the schedule. Here this 2007 01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:39,719 Speaker 4: text from Dan James, I'll throw a year away. Dan says, 2008 01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:43,439 Speaker 4: this is Xavian Howard and Ady Mitchell are suited up 2009 01:29:43,439 --> 01:29:47,400 Speaker 4: on Sunday. You have to question the accountability of the staff. 2010 01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:51,920 Speaker 3: Fair statement. Yes, I think it's a very fair statement. 2011 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:56,960 Speaker 3: I'll probably lean suit it up or just not playing, 2012 01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,680 Speaker 3: like what I mean, I'm fine if they're active, but 2013 01:29:59,720 --> 01:30:02,600 Speaker 3: don't I mean, if you're a healthy scratchery. Yeah, I 2014 01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 3: mean if you're not playing or not playing, we can 2015 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:06,559 Speaker 3: get into the semantics of it all and you know 2016 01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 3: who's actually officially on the roster for game day. But 2017 01:30:09,840 --> 01:30:12,080 Speaker 3: if they're not playing, I'm totally fine with that. I 2018 01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:15,559 Speaker 3: think he's Avin Howard is probably unplayable at this point. 2019 01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:18,080 Speaker 3: He has been bad the first month of the season. 2020 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:21,200 Speaker 3: I think he's getting exposed more, especially against teams that 2021 01:30:21,320 --> 01:30:23,320 Speaker 3: really have a couple of different receivers that can throw 2022 01:30:23,320 --> 01:30:25,720 Speaker 3: at you, because I mean, what is the value of 2023 01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:28,600 Speaker 3: having Savarious Ward if you know, okay, well we'll just 2024 01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:30,880 Speaker 3: throw wherever the other guy is and we'll still be 2025 01:30:30,920 --> 01:30:33,360 Speaker 3: able to move the ball. So that's a big boy. 2026 01:30:33,400 --> 01:30:38,400 Speaker 3: And then Adie Mitchell again, you aren't focused enough to 2027 01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:41,920 Speaker 3: have earned our trust. And through his first two seasons, 2028 01:30:41,960 --> 01:30:44,720 Speaker 3: I would honestly argue, and I don't think it's a 2029 01:30:44,720 --> 01:30:47,799 Speaker 3: hard argument to make that he has been more negative 2030 01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:49,920 Speaker 3: than positive for this football team. So they set him 2031 01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,320 Speaker 3: down for a game to let him know, Hey, whatever 2032 01:30:52,360 --> 01:30:54,360 Speaker 3: you're doing ain't gonna fly here. You got to earn it. 2033 01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:57,360 Speaker 3: As shask I can alluded to, I'll be okay with that. 2034 01:30:57,360 --> 01:30:59,439 Speaker 3: The BEINGI will be warranted. And again for the UMP 2035 01:30:59,479 --> 01:31:03,599 Speaker 3: team's time, people keep telling me, hey, well JT fumbled, 2036 01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:06,720 Speaker 3: he did the same thing as Adie Mitchell. Why don't 2037 01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:08,880 Speaker 3: think it's the same punishment, you know, if j T 2038 01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:11,360 Speaker 3: didn't get bnched and watched Adi Mitchell get benched. Because 2039 01:31:11,400 --> 01:31:14,879 Speaker 3: in the real world, people do not get treated equally, 2040 01:31:15,600 --> 01:31:18,240 Speaker 3: they get treated fairly. I think, you know, you ask 2041 01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:20,599 Speaker 3: any coach in America out how to use sports, You're 2042 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:22,720 Speaker 3: not gonna treat you're a star player the same as 2043 01:31:22,720 --> 01:31:25,519 Speaker 3: you would a four string wide receiver. That's just not reality. 2044 01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:28,000 Speaker 3: And so I also was, you know, getting this question 2045 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:30,960 Speaker 3: a lot yesterday and even sometime today off the YouTube 2046 01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:32,960 Speaker 3: chat and in some of our text line it's like, well, 2047 01:31:33,280 --> 01:31:35,240 Speaker 3: you know who gets grace and who doesn't. The players 2048 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:38,400 Speaker 3: who've earned it. JT earned grace, Adie Mitchell has not. 2049 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:42,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would agree wholeheartedly on that Marc's good and 2050 01:31:42,160 --> 01:31:44,800 Speaker 4: play this. This was Shane second yesterday in regards to 2051 01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:48,559 Speaker 4: where things are at with Xavier and Howard and his status. 2052 01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:50,519 Speaker 9: Like I said, he's been a really good player in 2053 01:31:50,520 --> 01:31:52,800 Speaker 9: this league for a long time. You know, we got 2054 01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:57,160 Speaker 9: to do a better job looking at different things and 2055 01:31:57,240 --> 01:32:00,519 Speaker 9: you know, helping them in certain situations. He is a 2056 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:04,000 Speaker 9: talented player, but you know we got to improve in 2057 01:32:04,040 --> 01:32:05,000 Speaker 9: some areas for sure. 2058 01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:07,720 Speaker 3: What do you guys make of that? 2059 01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:12,960 Speaker 1: Again, fairly typical non answer, But they keep sticking to him, 2060 01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:14,760 Speaker 1: and what I hear is they're just going to keep 2061 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:16,479 Speaker 1: putting him out there is what it sounded like. 2062 01:32:17,400 --> 01:32:22,000 Speaker 3: Actually, you go ahead, Mark, he's been a good player. 2063 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:26,479 Speaker 3: He is he's been. That is a good distinction you've made. 2064 01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:28,639 Speaker 3: And I actually go the other way, Jeff, I think 2065 01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 3: dealing with the years of Shane Stykeen, I think that 2066 01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:37,439 Speaker 3: he obviously doesn't say much, but there's a little there 2067 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:40,360 Speaker 3: to at least suggest that they're thinking about making a change. 2068 01:32:40,760 --> 01:32:42,600 Speaker 3: And he won't come out and say it and a 2069 01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:45,120 Speaker 3: lot of that fan fairness to him and other coaches 2070 01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:47,560 Speaker 3: that usually will protect their player. They're not going to 2071 01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 3: just come out on the first day and say, hey, 2072 01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:50,840 Speaker 3: we're benching this guy recutting them. He's just no good, 2073 01:32:50,840 --> 01:32:54,880 Speaker 3: He's terrible. But that last part we got to look 2074 01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:56,559 Speaker 3: at some things. I think that is actually a very 2075 01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:57,839 Speaker 3: serious statement from Shane Steikeen. 2076 01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:00,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm with you there, James. You know 2077 01:33:00,160 --> 01:33:02,320 Speaker 4: what he says, we have to help him out. I'm 2078 01:33:02,360 --> 01:33:03,800 Speaker 4: kind of a little bit like, oh boy, does that 2079 01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:06,000 Speaker 4: mean that they're still going to play him and then 2080 01:33:06,240 --> 01:33:09,160 Speaker 4: whatever contribute more help to him. Frankly, he should have 2081 01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:12,080 Speaker 4: had help on fourth and two on Sunday and not 2082 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:17,800 Speaker 4: left him out there in man against Pukunakua on that play. Again, 2083 01:33:17,840 --> 01:33:19,639 Speaker 4: I'll go back to what I said earlier. I think 2084 01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 4: if I was lou An Arumo, what would really really 2085 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:26,439 Speaker 4: be bothersome with Xavier and Howard is not just he's 2086 01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:31,320 Speaker 4: allowing an insane amount of production to opposing offenses. Obviously 2087 01:33:31,360 --> 01:33:35,719 Speaker 4: that speaks for itself, but I see questionable effort once 2088 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:38,960 Speaker 4: these catches are being made, and where are the good 2089 01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:41,679 Speaker 4: plays in coverage? Again, corner is one of those positions 2090 01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 4: in the NFL where you're naturally going to have some 2091 01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:47,839 Speaker 4: bad By no means are you expecting perfect Patrick? Certain 2092 01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:50,040 Speaker 4: you watched him in week two, The Colts got him 2093 01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 4: a few times. You watched Patrick's sir chain last night. 2094 01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:55,800 Speaker 4: There wasn't much getting him at all. Like that that 2095 01:33:55,880 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 4: happens with corners. With Howard so far, there's no good 2096 01:34:00,720 --> 01:34:04,160 Speaker 4: in coverage, there's no play making, nothing to offset it. 2097 01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,680 Speaker 4: So again that would be bothered him. 2098 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:07,680 Speaker 3: Now what do you do? You know? 2099 01:34:07,720 --> 01:34:10,840 Speaker 4: Obviously Kenny Moore's injury situation will be one to watch 2100 01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:13,799 Speaker 4: here in week five. I think if Kenny is out again, 2101 01:34:14,880 --> 01:34:18,240 Speaker 4: James to me, you go with Javerius Ward, you go 2102 01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 4: with Mike Hilton in the slot, and then probably Makhai Blackman, 2103 01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:24,760 Speaker 4: who they traded for with Minnesota. He did fall down 2104 01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:28,559 Speaker 4: on the two two at well touchdown there, I assume 2105 01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:31,320 Speaker 4: that would be the three. I would be open minded 2106 01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:33,559 Speaker 4: to giving Jonathan Edwards a chance though, and that's the 2107 01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:37,479 Speaker 4: undrafted free agent out of Indian sat before he went 2108 01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:40,400 Speaker 4: to Tulane. There we're still, I think one week away 2109 01:34:40,439 --> 01:34:43,479 Speaker 4: from Jalen Jones being eligible to come off injured reserve. 2110 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:46,400 Speaker 4: He would definitely be one that I would look at. 2111 01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 4: But again, we're still one week away there, so that's 2112 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:52,519 Speaker 4: kind of how I view corner heading into week five. 2113 01:34:52,760 --> 01:34:55,680 Speaker 1: Larger question comes from Kevin Ka on the text line 2114 01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:58,240 Speaker 1: at two through nine ten seventy says, I still want 2115 01:34:58,280 --> 01:35:01,080 Speaker 1: to know where this incredibly clever new defenses. All I 2116 01:35:01,080 --> 01:35:04,680 Speaker 1: see is vanilla dias always we can't stop anyone ug 2117 01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:08,240 Speaker 1: Is that too simplistic a question? Or do we need 2118 01:35:08,280 --> 01:35:11,080 Speaker 1: to see more on lou Ana Romo's stuff. 2119 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:17,479 Speaker 3: I would disagree. Yeah, I'll probably disagree with that. 2120 01:35:17,520 --> 01:35:18,800 Speaker 5: I mean, it took me a lot of response just 2121 01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:20,960 Speaker 5: because I'm going over to my head, like, I think 2122 01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:25,599 Speaker 5: that's a typical frustrated response after a game. 2123 01:35:25,760 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 4: Ninety six yard drive you can point to and I 2124 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:29,920 Speaker 4: learned a lot of this as Gus bratd like I 2125 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:34,400 Speaker 4: can hear that. But no, I think they have definitely 2126 01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:39,400 Speaker 4: disguised more. They've definitely done things that are not just 2127 01:35:39,560 --> 01:35:43,080 Speaker 4: strictly vanilla simple Gus Bradley's ways. Again, it's not gonna 2128 01:35:43,120 --> 01:35:45,120 Speaker 4: be perfect, but you know, James, I thought one of 2129 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,160 Speaker 4: the more better disguises that could have been a huge 2130 01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:49,360 Speaker 4: play in the game was early on that first third 2131 01:35:49,439 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 4: or one of those first third downs when Zia Franklin, 2132 01:35:52,360 --> 01:35:54,360 Speaker 4: you know, has a ball thrown right right to him. 2133 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:57,040 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford never saw him, you know, he thought he 2134 01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:57,360 Speaker 3: was coming. 2135 01:35:57,400 --> 01:36:00,559 Speaker 4: I think on the blitz and Zyre drops back and boom, Stafford, 2136 01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:02,120 Speaker 4: you know, throws it right to him. 2137 01:36:02,120 --> 01:36:03,320 Speaker 3: So I would disagree on. 2138 01:36:03,280 --> 01:36:06,760 Speaker 1: That, a lot of questions from people about the Colts. 2139 01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:08,640 Speaker 1: Will be talking about it all week long here as 2140 01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:12,080 Speaker 1: they get ready for the Vegas Raiders. It's still weird 2141 01:36:12,080 --> 01:36:18,800 Speaker 1: to say Vegas Raiders, Vegas, Los Angeles. Who knows? Who 2142 01:36:18,880 --> 01:36:20,479 Speaker 1: knows that there'll be five years from now they just 2143 01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:23,920 Speaker 1: they just bop around the West coast, see it. I'll 2144 01:36:23,960 --> 01:36:25,600 Speaker 1: go maybe they'll end up being a third team in 2145 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:28,599 Speaker 1: Los Angeles before it's all said and done. But man, 2146 01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:30,559 Speaker 1: have you been out to the stadium in Vegas, James? 2147 01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:32,240 Speaker 1: I have to. 2148 01:36:33,840 --> 01:36:37,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I still won the award for best award he's 2149 01:36:37,240 --> 01:36:39,080 Speaker 3: ever gotten in his life, or best president he's ever 2150 01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:42,000 Speaker 3: gotten in his life. Then to watch the Raiders play. No, 2151 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:44,439 Speaker 3: actually we didn't go watch the game. It was for 2152 01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:45,720 Speaker 3: like an awards ceremony. 2153 01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:46,519 Speaker 1: Uh. 2154 01:36:47,160 --> 01:36:49,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I had a one A journalism award and the 2155 01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:51,320 Speaker 3: Awards ceremony was in Vegas. I took my dad. This 2156 01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:54,519 Speaker 3: was all right three or four years ago, this before 2157 01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:56,519 Speaker 3: I worked in the NFL, and we went and UH tour. 2158 01:36:56,520 --> 01:36:58,320 Speaker 3: It was right before it opened up actually, because I 2159 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:00,439 Speaker 3: remember when we toured it, they told was not sit 2160 01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:02,360 Speaker 3: on any of the seats because they hadn't been set 2161 01:37:02,400 --> 01:37:05,320 Speaker 3: in yet by any of the real fans testing these 2162 01:37:05,360 --> 01:37:07,280 Speaker 3: bad boys out I got make sure there up to code. 2163 01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:10,120 Speaker 3: But the places, I mean, it is beautiful. It was 2164 01:37:10,160 --> 01:37:13,000 Speaker 3: one of the cooler UH tours that we got. And 2165 01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,439 Speaker 3: then we went into the locker room. They did a 2166 01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:19,559 Speaker 3: hologram of John Gruden where he would like he probably 2167 01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:21,400 Speaker 3: put a hologram and gave us his big old speech 2168 01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:23,479 Speaker 3: about you know basically as we were going out there 2169 01:37:23,479 --> 01:37:26,640 Speaker 3: to play. I can't tell you excited right now? So 2170 01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:28,280 Speaker 3: that was that was great. 2171 01:37:28,400 --> 01:37:30,920 Speaker 1: That was really good. Did that come from you working 2172 01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:31,120 Speaker 1: on that? 2173 01:37:31,320 --> 01:37:35,720 Speaker 3: No? Any talents? So yeah, I have been there. It's 2174 01:37:35,720 --> 01:37:36,879 Speaker 3: a beautiful place to play. 2175 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:39,519 Speaker 1: Big guy, great job on winning that award. There. 2176 01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:42,160 Speaker 5: I'm Ravy run Spider through a white banana. If you 2177 01:37:42,160 --> 01:37:44,799 Speaker 5: don't mind, go on, get out there, let's touch some brass. 2178 01:37:44,800 --> 01:37:45,240 Speaker 3: Excellent. 2179 01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:47,960 Speaker 4: Oh he needs the Chucky doll and you're good. 2180 01:37:48,040 --> 01:37:50,120 Speaker 1: It's beIN a crudens. Whatever happened to Jay Gruden? Is 2181 01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:51,559 Speaker 1: he still in the league? Is he still working for 2182 01:37:51,600 --> 01:37:54,519 Speaker 1: somebody somewhere? I don't anybody know. 2183 01:37:54,600 --> 01:37:55,559 Speaker 3: I got nothing on Jake. 2184 01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:58,720 Speaker 1: I don't remember. Just kind of went away with the 2185 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:01,559 Speaker 1: rest of that Commanders whole group a few years ago. 2186 01:38:01,560 --> 01:38:04,280 Speaker 1: I don't know what happened on that. But yeah, it'll 2187 01:38:04,320 --> 01:38:07,000 Speaker 1: be coming up Sunday afternoon one o'clock, the Las Vegas 2188 01:38:07,040 --> 01:38:09,880 Speaker 1: Raiders and the Indianapolis Colts a chance to win their 2189 01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:12,680 Speaker 1: fourth of their first five games. And I think we've 2190 01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:15,600 Speaker 1: talked about this a lot yesterday, Kevin. Anybody that's a 2191 01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:18,200 Speaker 1: fan would have signed up for that on August the fifteenth, 2192 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:18,680 Speaker 1: Well that. 2193 01:38:18,680 --> 01:38:20,720 Speaker 3: One percent, Yeah, I think I had four and two 2194 01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:25,160 Speaker 3: at the start, So obviously I didn't have four and one. Well, 2195 01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:27,400 Speaker 3: I guess I think I had at this point two 2196 01:38:27,479 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 3: and two. I believe I think I had losses to 2197 01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:32,400 Speaker 3: Denver in the rams. Here mark that line for Sunday 2198 01:38:32,960 --> 01:38:34,639 Speaker 3: six and a half. Does that sound right now? That's 2199 01:38:34,640 --> 01:38:36,320 Speaker 3: what it was last night I checked. So yeah, it's 2200 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:38,519 Speaker 3: almost up to a touchdown favorite for the equals. I 2201 01:38:38,720 --> 01:38:40,280 Speaker 3: believe I'd have to check this. 2202 01:38:40,600 --> 01:38:44,040 Speaker 4: I believe that would be the second biggest favorite they've 2203 01:38:44,160 --> 01:38:47,479 Speaker 4: been under Shane Steichen. So you think about that, this 2204 01:38:47,560 --> 01:38:51,400 Speaker 4: is Shane Steikeen's what thirty ninth game is cold sead 2205 01:38:51,479 --> 01:38:54,280 Speaker 4: coach two seasons plus four games and this will be 2206 01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:58,799 Speaker 4: the fifth game. So the second biggest favorite under stich 2207 01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:02,120 Speaker 4: in good news. When they have been favored, they've won 2208 01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:05,880 Speaker 4: quite often under Shane. I guess the bad news is 2209 01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:08,360 Speaker 4: the time they were the biggest favorite, they did lose 2210 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,880 Speaker 4: to the Giants. So if anyone cares about betting lines 2211 01:39:11,920 --> 01:39:15,439 Speaker 4: and how those could impact the game, that's what the 2212 01:39:15,439 --> 01:39:17,599 Speaker 4: cults are looking like right now on Sunday, the second 2213 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:20,400 Speaker 4: biggest favorite of any game in the Stiking era. 2214 01:39:20,400 --> 01:39:24,080 Speaker 5: Fourth highest point, fourth highest spread of Week five in 2215 01:39:24,120 --> 01:39:25,400 Speaker 5: the NFL, among all games. 2216 01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:30,120 Speaker 4: You know, Smith awful. On Sunday, Ashton Gent changed up 2217 01:39:30,120 --> 01:39:33,559 Speaker 4: his stance to his Boise State days and finally ripped 2218 01:39:33,560 --> 01:39:36,519 Speaker 4: off a couple of big ones. Max Crosby's really good 2219 01:39:36,560 --> 01:39:39,160 Speaker 4: at football. No one can name a Raiders wide out, 2220 01:39:39,479 --> 01:39:42,599 Speaker 4: and Brock Bauers is we have a tight end matchup 2221 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:45,400 Speaker 4: to Circle this week, and they lost their left tackle 2222 01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:49,000 Speaker 4: late in that game, and he's been their starter for years. 2223 01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:52,200 Speaker 4: So there's your one minute synopsis on the. 2224 01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:55,719 Speaker 5: I am curious how Max Crosby and the Colts offensive 2225 01:39:55,760 --> 01:39:57,280 Speaker 5: line are going to match up because he was just 2226 01:39:57,360 --> 01:39:59,280 Speaker 5: flying around he was, I mean, it didn't matter where 2227 01:39:59,720 --> 01:40:01,479 Speaker 5: he he was lined up every side of the field 2228 01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:04,479 Speaker 5: against the Bears, so'll be curious how the offensive line 2229 01:40:04,479 --> 01:40:05,080 Speaker 5: handles him. 2230 01:40:05,160 --> 01:40:06,960 Speaker 3: The Colts have done you again. 2231 01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:08,760 Speaker 4: This is kind of an annual matchup to what we 2232 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:11,120 Speaker 4: were just talking about earlier, Colts and Raiders. The Colts 2233 01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:14,200 Speaker 4: have actually done a decent job on Crosby. I want 2234 01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:16,880 Speaker 4: to say he only has one sack in his career 2235 01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:19,439 Speaker 4: and that's like four or five games, which you know, 2236 01:40:19,520 --> 01:40:21,920 Speaker 4: considering who he is. But this will probably be something 2237 01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:23,360 Speaker 4: I get to a lot here throughout the week as 2238 01:40:23,360 --> 01:40:26,120 Speaker 4: we get closer to talking Colts and Raiders. Something I 2239 01:40:26,120 --> 01:40:29,000 Speaker 4: would just like to see from the Colts. When you 2240 01:40:29,120 --> 01:40:32,040 Speaker 4: play elite talents and Max Crosby might hear his name 2241 01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:38,720 Speaker 4: in Campton one day. Don't let these players add to 2242 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:43,479 Speaker 4: their Hall of Fame highlight reel like Pooka Nakua his team. 2243 01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:46,040 Speaker 3: They need to go back and edit the. 2244 01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:48,200 Speaker 4: Oighlight reel for a couple of those ones to add 2245 01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:50,720 Speaker 4: Colts plays into it. That's my issue, James, with some 2246 01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:54,240 Speaker 4: of these these are great talents, but like, why not 2247 01:40:54,400 --> 01:40:57,000 Speaker 4: just have Pooka have an average day against you? It 2248 01:40:57,120 --> 01:41:00,240 Speaker 4: still would be good from a number standpoint. But Huca 2249 01:41:00,320 --> 01:41:03,720 Speaker 4: had the best day of his career against the Colts, 2250 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:07,840 Speaker 4: you know, for Genty or Bowers or Crosby. I mean 2251 01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:12,679 Speaker 4: there are some individually uber talented players on the Raiders team, 2252 01:41:12,840 --> 01:41:15,160 Speaker 4: three of them probably, and then they fall off I 2253 01:41:15,160 --> 01:41:18,360 Speaker 4: think majorly really after that. Don't let them add to it. 2254 01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:20,200 Speaker 4: Think of the Cleveland game few years ago, Like Miles 2255 01:41:20,280 --> 01:41:23,120 Speaker 4: Garrett just single handedly took that game over. You know, 2256 01:41:23,400 --> 01:41:26,639 Speaker 4: how about just a pedestrian game. You know, Week one 2257 01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:29,040 Speaker 4: you did that with Tyreek Hill. You did a really 2258 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:33,360 Speaker 4: nice job of keeping him just probably below average honestly 2259 01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:35,640 Speaker 4: for him. That's I think what I would ask for 2260 01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:37,000 Speaker 4: out of the Colts here coming up this week. 2261 01:41:37,360 --> 01:41:40,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what they need to do. Don't let the 2262 01:41:40,600 --> 01:41:43,080 Speaker 1: best players just run right all over you. And so 2263 01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:46,880 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens Sunday afternoon at one o'clock. Is 2264 01:41:46,960 --> 01:41:49,720 Speaker 1: the Colts try to contain? Are we worried about the 2265 01:41:50,400 --> 01:41:53,000 Speaker 1: a Pete Carroll team. I know Gino Smith wasn't terrific 2266 01:41:53,000 --> 01:41:55,080 Speaker 1: in his last at, but we worried that Pete Carroll 2267 01:41:55,120 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 1: still knows how to bring a game plan. 2268 01:41:57,320 --> 01:41:59,559 Speaker 3: I'm not too worried about it. I mean, obviously he's 2269 01:41:59,760 --> 01:42:01,840 Speaker 3: a a very good coach, a super Bowl winning coach. 2270 01:42:01,880 --> 01:42:04,120 Speaker 3: But at the same time, they're devoid of a lot 2271 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:06,840 Speaker 3: of talent over there. So from a talent standpoint, you 2272 01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:09,160 Speaker 3: have more of that than them. And I would argue 2273 01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:12,519 Speaker 3: that the Colts, outside of what we saw this past Sunday, 2274 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:16,280 Speaker 3: have been a pretty good and well coached team. So 2275 01:42:16,560 --> 01:42:19,000 Speaker 3: even from just a penalty standpoint, can you clean some 2276 01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:20,960 Speaker 3: of that stuff up to make sure that you're, you know, 2277 01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:22,599 Speaker 3: not giving away yards against the Raiders? 2278 01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:25,080 Speaker 5: Can either any of you name a single Raiders wide 2279 01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:26,519 Speaker 5: receiver right now, probably like. 2280 01:42:26,560 --> 01:42:27,719 Speaker 1: Chickle be Meyers, Trait Turner. 2281 01:42:27,960 --> 01:42:30,040 Speaker 3: Okay, there you go, Well, Trey Tucker. 2282 01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:31,759 Speaker 1: Trey Tucker. I'm sorry, Yeah, Trey. 2283 01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:34,920 Speaker 3: Turner is a solid shortstop though. Yes, think who's older, 2284 01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:39,360 Speaker 3: Belichick or Carrol Bella Cheryl, Yeah, I doesn't say Pete Carroll, 2285 01:42:39,439 --> 01:42:43,360 Speaker 3: right He's in his Pete Carroll just turned seventy four.

Man Man 2297 01:43:14,720 --> 01:43:16,800 Speaker 1: text line pointing out that Jeff Saturday got his first 2298 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:18,120 Speaker 1: win against Vegas. 2299 01:43:19,040 --> 01:43:22,519 Speaker 4: I forgot about that first and only right, Yeah, Jonathan Taylor, 2300 01:43:22,560 --> 01:43:24,920 Speaker 4: if I remember correctly, James had a big run in 2301 01:43:24,920 --> 01:43:25,280 Speaker 4: that game. 2302 01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:27,679 Speaker 3: He was bawling. I remember after that game, I'm talking 2303 01:43:27,680 --> 01:43:29,360 Speaker 3: to Grover Steward in the locker room, and he told 2304 01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:32,040 Speaker 3: me all this commotion going on with all these coaching 2305 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:36,479 Speaker 3: chains and they got to win, and only so with Grover. 2306 01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:38,800 Speaker 3: If you're gonna do your Grover, I can't do it. 2307 01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:41,200 Speaker 3: His voice is too deep. My voice can't go that low. 2308 01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:42,559 Speaker 1: You can do the southern accent. 2309 01:43:42,560 --> 01:43:45,280 Speaker 5: That was a great effort that I think the last 2310 01:43:45,280 --> 01:43:47,960 Speaker 5: time the Raiders were here, Kevin and I participated in 2311 01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:49,479 Speaker 5: a little shrimp beating contest. 2312 01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:51,400 Speaker 4: Is that correct? Is that the last time no so? 2313 01:43:51,479 --> 01:43:53,920 Speaker 4: Mark actually was there?

I came across the video of you 2322 01:44:11,600 --> 01:44:12,920 Speaker 4: and I in the shrimp eating contest. 2323 01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:13,439 Speaker 3: Mark. 2324 01:44:13,560 --> 01:44:19,120 Speaker 4: That was the day of the Raiders actually winning here 2325 01:44:19,280 --> 01:44:23,040 Speaker 4: with Derek Carr. That started the twenty twenty one collapse. 2326 01:44:23,120 --> 01:44:26,280 Speaker 4: People are saying, this is what people are saying that 2327 01:44:26,479 --> 01:44:29,799 Speaker 4: you and I started did it the Carson Wentz collapse. 2328 01:44:30,280 --> 01:44:30,880 Speaker 1: It was our fall. 2329 01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:33,400 Speaker 4: Colt's lost at home against an interim head coach. If 2330 01:44:33,400 --> 01:44:35,200 Speaker 4: I remember correctly, with the Raiders, if you win that game, 2331 01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:36,760 Speaker 4: you're in the playoffs. So then you had to go 2332 01:44:36,800 --> 01:44:39,240 Speaker 4: to Jacksonville and win the Week eighteen game to get 2333 01:44:39,240 --> 01:44:40,720 Speaker 4: in and then you lose that. 2334 01:44:41,760 --> 01:44:44,439 Speaker 5: I gotta send you this video I liked in one. 2335 01:44:44,479 --> 01:44:46,280 Speaker 5: By the way, the championship built is in the office. 2336 01:44:46,280 --> 01:44:48,240 Speaker 5: I should grab it in the break just like. 2337 01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:51,400 Speaker 3: Quarry fake covid Mark filled in and. 2338 01:44:51,680 --> 01:44:53,360 Speaker 5: You cheated too, because all of a sudden, we're about 2339 01:44:53,360 --> 01:44:55,519 Speaker 5: to start and plot like a jug of milk. 2340 01:44:55,960 --> 01:44:57,479 Speaker 3: Like oh, Joey Chessman told me, I'm. 2341 01:44:57,400 --> 01:44:58,160 Speaker 1: Like, what is this? 2342 01:44:58,000 --> 01:44:58,799 Speaker 4: This illegal? 2343 01:44:58,960 --> 01:44:59,800 Speaker 1: Like dancing? 2344 01:45:00,400 --> 01:45:03,880 Speaker 3: That was impressive preparation by going to the simmers.

Well, 2440 01:49:08,360 --> 01:49:09,519 Speaker 1: the standard is the standard. 2441 01:49:10,479 --> 01:49:14,280 Speaker 7: You know. We have created a culture here that is 2442 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:17,800 Speaker 7: special in this league, and uh, it's something that I 2443 01:49:17,840 --> 01:49:20,320 Speaker 7: really care about.

Coach Rick and 2446 01:49:25,800 --> 01:49:28,599 Speaker 7: the staff were helping build that, and I think we've 2447 01:49:28,640 --> 01:49:31,680 Speaker 7: done a great job and that's not changing. So just 2448 01:49:31,680 --> 01:49:34,080 Speaker 7: because I'm not playing, still going to play fast, still 2449 01:49:34,080 --> 01:49:37,200 Speaker 7: going to pick up full court play with the infectious 2450 01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:38,760 Speaker 7: joy and energy that we always do. 2451 01:49:39,600 --> 01:49:42,000 Speaker 1: It still fills James Boyd Like they finished the season 2452 01:49:42,040 --> 01:49:43,640 Speaker 1: about ten days ago, doesn't it. 2453 01:49:44,240 --> 01:49:46,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you played to the last possible day 2454 01:49:46,360 --> 01:49:49,439 Speaker 3: of the season. That is what happens. Is so you 2455 01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:52,920 Speaker 3: got a new endeavor on deck for this team, and 2456 01:49:52,960 --> 01:49:55,360 Speaker 3: certainly some new roles. I would think Frandre and nim 2457 01:49:55,360 --> 01:49:57,960 Speaker 3: Hard and Bendigt, Madvin and Jared Walker, and in that 2458 01:49:58,000 --> 01:50:01,000 Speaker 3: center rotation which you alluded to earlier, Jeff, where you're 2459 01:50:01,000 --> 01:50:02,920 Speaker 3: trying to figure out is it Isaiah Jackson, is it 2460 01:50:03,000 --> 01:50:05,400 Speaker 3: Jay Huff, is it you know, someone else like James 2461 01:50:05,439 --> 01:50:08,080 Speaker 3: Wiseman in that mix. And so a lot of moving 2462 01:50:08,120 --> 01:50:09,920 Speaker 3: parts for this team. But I'm excited to see what 2463 01:50:09,960 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 3: they do all right. 2464 01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:12,439 Speaker 1: Coming up in a moment, we'll hear more from the 2465 01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:15,599 Speaker 1: Pacers at Media Day yesterday. In the meantime, we take 2466 01:50:15,640 --> 01:50:17,280 Speaker 1: a quick time out at ninety three five and one 2467 01:50:17,280 --> 01:50:21,920 Speaker 1: oh seven five The Fan, Tuesday Morning, ninety three five, 2468 01:50:22,040 --> 01:50:24,639 Speaker 1: one oh seven five The Fan. James Boyd back from 2469 01:50:24,680 --> 01:50:28,280 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, Kevin Bowen here, rock solid and steady as always. 2470 01:50:28,320 --> 01:50:33,040 Speaker 1: Mark Dyketon spinning the hits. I like to get people 2471 01:50:33,080 --> 01:50:35,719 Speaker 1: to imagine you as like, you know, wearing a jack 2472 01:50:35,800 --> 01:50:38,800 Speaker 1: glittery jacket, some golden chains, working on a couple of 2473 01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:42,080 Speaker 1: turn tables at the same time. Things like club DJ, huh, 2474 01:50:42,320 --> 01:50:46,200 Speaker 1: strip club any any like DJ. Do you see somebody? No, 2475 01:50:46,479 --> 01:50:48,160 Speaker 1: you see some of these DJs that are filling up 2476 01:50:48,160 --> 01:50:49,880 Speaker 1: stadiums all over the place these days. 2477 01:50:49,880 --> 01:50:52,600 Speaker 5: Man, you can make some money doing that. Mark Dyke tho, Well, 2478 01:50:52,640 --> 01:50:55,000 Speaker 5: I can't record scratch anything. I can play some hits though, 2479 01:50:55,040 --> 01:50:55,479 Speaker 5: all right. 2480 01:50:55,720 --> 01:51:02,840 Speaker 3: Some red garter buffet, the shrimp cocktails reapply. I was 2481 01:51:02,840 --> 01:51:05,720 Speaker 3: there yesterday. Yeah, everything looked like it was good. 2482 01:51:05,920 --> 01:51:06,880 Speaker 1: Maddie online too. 2483 01:51:07,680 --> 01:51:11,120 Speaker 3: Two for one. We're about the stage. 2484 01:51:11,960 --> 01:51:15,639 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. The uh, the hits just keep on coming, 2485 01:51:15,720 --> 01:51:18,840 Speaker 1: Mark Dayton. But the Indiana Pacers are going to try 2486 01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:21,840 Speaker 1: to regroup from just a devastating tough end, as we 2487 01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:24,559 Speaker 1: all know, the Game seven of the NBA Finals. Everybody 2488 01:51:24,560 --> 01:51:26,439 Speaker 1: who's been a pretty good mood yesterday. I know, James, 2489 01:51:26,479 --> 01:51:28,000 Speaker 1: you're on the way back from the plane. I was 2490 01:51:28,400 --> 01:51:30,759 Speaker 1: watching some stuff online and seeing a lot of stuff 2491 01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:35,000 Speaker 1: on the Pacers uh social feeds last night, and they 2492 01:51:35,040 --> 01:51:36,760 Speaker 1: seemed to be in a pretty good mood and ready 2493 01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:39,599 Speaker 1: to get going again. And everybody was talking yesterday as 2494 01:51:39,640 --> 01:51:41,439 Speaker 1: they tend to do it media day, that's kind of 2495 01:51:41,479 --> 01:51:43,840 Speaker 1: how they were. We've heard from Tyree'se. Halliburton a few 2496 01:51:43,920 --> 01:51:45,559 Speaker 1: times this morning, but I want to get you guys 2497 01:51:45,640 --> 01:51:48,759 Speaker 1: some thoughts on Aaron Nesmith and his role is certainly 2498 01:51:48,760 --> 01:51:51,080 Speaker 1: going to change a little bit, as well as a 2499 01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:53,600 Speaker 1: couple of other players in the absence of Tyreese Halliburton. 2500 01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:56,639 Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say on everybody this year 2501 01:51:56,680 --> 01:51:58,800 Speaker 1: who was doubting that they have the ability to win 2502 01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:00,839 Speaker 1: a bunch of games, and get right back to the postseas. 2503 01:52:00,880 --> 01:52:02,519 Speaker 8: You got to turn the page at some point and 2504 01:52:02,720 --> 01:52:04,679 Speaker 8: understand that, you know, this is a brand new season, 2505 01:52:04,680 --> 01:52:08,280 Speaker 8: brand new opportunity, and you know, per usual, a lot 2506 01:52:08,320 --> 01:52:10,800 Speaker 8: of people have written us off because of Tyrese. But 2507 01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:14,320 Speaker 8: you know, we're used to proving people wrong and shocking people, 2508 01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:15,880 Speaker 8: so it's gonna be nothing new this year. 2509 01:52:16,439 --> 01:52:18,640 Speaker 1: There you go a little defiant there, James Boyd. You 2510 01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:21,880 Speaker 1: would expect nothing less, but not having Tyrese Halliburton is 2511 01:52:21,880 --> 01:52:24,400 Speaker 1: going to lead a huge huge boyd in that lineup. 2512 01:52:24,640 --> 01:52:27,400 Speaker 3: Absolutely. I think when you look at what his impact 2513 01:52:27,479 --> 01:52:30,200 Speaker 3: on the team is impact on winning the Tyres I mean, 2514 01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:33,040 Speaker 3: the pacers led by Tyres are usually a much better 2515 01:52:33,080 --> 01:52:35,120 Speaker 3: team with him on the floor. So I get that 2516 01:52:35,200 --> 01:52:38,559 Speaker 3: he might not have the gaudy numbers of like an 2517 01:52:38,640 --> 01:52:42,519 Speaker 3: Sga or a Luka Doncic or you know someone who 2518 01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:44,880 Speaker 3: fills it up on a regular basis and average is 2519 01:52:44,880 --> 01:52:48,040 Speaker 3: close to thirty points a game. But I think what 2520 01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:50,240 Speaker 3: I've learned with Tyrese is you have to watch the 2521 01:52:50,320 --> 01:52:52,960 Speaker 3: games to really understand that his impact goes beyond the 2522 01:52:53,000 --> 01:52:55,559 Speaker 3: box scoring. So they're going to miss that a lot, 2523 01:52:55,680 --> 01:52:58,479 Speaker 3: and then we have to see how everyone else adapts 2524 01:52:58,520 --> 01:53:00,920 Speaker 3: to their new roles. I think Andrew n Hard is 2525 01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:03,280 Speaker 3: gonna have a lot on his plate this year, both 2526 01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:06,839 Speaker 3: with him sliding over to more of that offensive facility 2527 01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:10,800 Speaker 3: facility facilitator role. I'm sorry, Kevin, I think that you 2528 01:53:10,880 --> 01:53:13,200 Speaker 3: have to think, Okay, who's gonna take that defensive matchup 2529 01:53:13,240 --> 01:53:17,000 Speaker 3: now of guarding everybody's best player on the perimeter. Aaron 2530 01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:19,040 Speaker 3: Smith will certainly have some of that work low, but 2531 01:53:19,560 --> 01:53:21,720 Speaker 3: there is an avenue there for someone to take some 2532 01:53:21,760 --> 01:53:22,479 Speaker 3: playing time up. 2533 01:53:22,960 --> 01:53:25,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Matheren is just inevitably going to fall 2534 01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:27,920 Speaker 4: into some of that and has he taken steps as 2535 01:53:27,960 --> 01:53:30,880 Speaker 4: an on ball defender I think will be big as well. 2536 01:53:30,920 --> 01:53:32,960 Speaker 4: But I just love that Nei Smith's wired. I mean 2537 01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:35,880 Speaker 4: like he that that comment is how he plays, you know, 2538 01:53:35,920 --> 01:53:40,639 Speaker 4: he plays with an edge to him. I thought probably 2539 01:53:40,640 --> 01:53:43,360 Speaker 4: the name I heard the most yesterday from guys you know, 2540 01:53:43,400 --> 01:53:45,639 Speaker 4: talking about Hey, who's impressed, who's kind of stood out 2541 01:53:45,640 --> 01:53:48,040 Speaker 4: to you, was the name of Johnny Furfey. And not 2542 01:53:48,200 --> 01:53:51,320 Speaker 4: just because the summer League dunk and Rick Carlisle loves you. 2543 01:53:51,360 --> 01:53:53,320 Speaker 4: I've always said this about Rick in regards to talking 2544 01:53:53,320 --> 01:53:56,120 Speaker 4: about some of his players. He loves himself. From Ben Shepard, 2545 01:53:56,600 --> 01:53:59,960 Speaker 4: he talks about Johnny furfy in a very similar light. Now, 2546 01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:04,240 Speaker 4: now again, how does Furfey get consistent playing time or 2547 01:54:04,320 --> 01:54:06,920 Speaker 4: where does he get it? You know, is Jarris Walker 2548 01:54:07,040 --> 01:54:11,040 Speaker 4: primarily that wing with the second unit? Does Furfey crack 2549 01:54:11,120 --> 01:54:14,200 Speaker 4: that rotation? And this is kind of the reality of 2550 01:54:14,200 --> 01:54:16,599 Speaker 4: where you're at with this Pacer season of Yes, I 2551 01:54:16,720 --> 01:54:19,360 Speaker 4: still think, like someone sent me earlier, you can get 2552 01:54:19,360 --> 01:54:21,920 Speaker 4: plus money. You can make money on betting on the 2553 01:54:21,960 --> 01:54:24,719 Speaker 4: pacers to make the postseason. I don't think it's great. 2554 01:54:24,720 --> 01:54:27,600 Speaker 4: It's like ten dollars to win fourteen. I would take that. 2555 01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:29,960 Speaker 4: I think the Pacers will be a playoff team. But 2556 01:54:30,080 --> 01:54:33,280 Speaker 4: in all reality, you're probably not playing as deep certainly 2557 01:54:33,280 --> 01:54:36,640 Speaker 4: as you did last year. The question for this season, 2558 01:54:37,120 --> 01:54:39,520 Speaker 4: along with obviously trying to win games, is all right, 2559 01:54:40,240 --> 01:54:44,280 Speaker 4: who are the other pieces that can grow with Tyre's 2560 01:54:44,280 --> 01:54:47,440 Speaker 4: Halliburton's next window. Yeah, that to me is such a 2561 01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:50,640 Speaker 4: big storyline this year. Miles Turner obviously is not going 2562 01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:53,720 Speaker 4: to be in the next window. We'll see how long 2563 01:54:53,800 --> 01:54:57,000 Speaker 4: Pascal Siakam can stay in that next window. And again 2564 01:54:57,000 --> 01:54:59,760 Speaker 4: I'm talking about what's Haliburn twenty six, probably twenty seven 2565 01:54:59,800 --> 01:55:02,120 Speaker 4: years something like that. You know, I'm talking about playing 2566 01:55:02,160 --> 01:55:05,880 Speaker 4: into his early thirties. Well, I mean from an age standpoint, 2567 01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:08,640 Speaker 4: and guys like Jared Walker and guys like Johnny Furfey 2568 01:55:09,040 --> 01:55:10,480 Speaker 4: fall into that position. 2569 01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:14,600 Speaker 3: Twenty five. He's only twenty five. Really, it turns twenty 2570 01:55:14,600 --> 01:55:17,000 Speaker 3: six next year. Okay, So let's say twenty six next year. 2571 01:55:17,320 --> 01:55:19,000 Speaker 3: Whatever it takes me a year to get ready. 2572 01:55:19,120 --> 01:55:22,440 Speaker 4: You know, twenty seven is when he's back back and 2573 01:55:22,480 --> 01:55:26,200 Speaker 4: then playing into those early thirties again. Who is alongside 2574 01:55:26,240 --> 01:55:30,600 Speaker 4: him for that run. And to me, you know Walker 2575 01:55:31,040 --> 01:55:34,320 Speaker 4: and Furfey again based off ages, would be in that boat. 2576 01:55:34,360 --> 01:55:36,400 Speaker 4: And you know, Rick Carlos said this to us after 2577 01:55:36,400 --> 01:55:38,800 Speaker 4: Furfey was drafted. They had him like thirteenth or fourteenth 2578 01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:42,880 Speaker 4: on their draft board, so they clearly thought really, really 2579 01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:45,960 Speaker 4: highly of him. Again, right now, it's a little fuzzy 2580 01:55:46,000 --> 01:55:49,080 Speaker 4: on exactly where he fits, but you know, this would 2581 01:55:49,080 --> 01:55:52,000 Speaker 4: be his junior season of Kansas, so exactly where is 2582 01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:54,640 Speaker 4: he at from a gross standpoint, I think I'm intrigued 2583 01:55:54,680 --> 01:55:55,000 Speaker 4: to see that. 2584 01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:57,600 Speaker 1: Well, Leah, it's gonna be a lot of fun to 2585 01:55:57,640 --> 01:55:59,600 Speaker 1: watch them play. I do think that they have a standard. 2586 01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:01,440 Speaker 1: I do like the way they play. I still think 2587 01:56:01,440 --> 01:56:05,400 Speaker 1: they have the ability to wear teams down. Pascal Siakam 2588 01:56:05,400 --> 01:56:08,680 Speaker 1: also talking about what to expect this coming year and 2589 01:56:08,880 --> 01:56:10,960 Speaker 1: more about the standard and how they play. 2590 01:56:10,960 --> 01:56:12,680 Speaker 10: Us like last year, and the way we play as 2591 01:56:12,680 --> 01:56:15,160 Speaker 10: a team like it's it's always been about team like, 2592 01:56:15,360 --> 01:56:18,840 Speaker 10: it's never been about one person and and and I 2593 01:56:18,880 --> 01:56:21,920 Speaker 10: think this year is it's not going to be different. 2594 01:56:22,720 --> 01:56:26,040 Speaker 10: We all got to have to do it collectively. And 2595 01:56:25,880 --> 01:56:27,560 Speaker 10: and I was telling the guys like it's not going 2596 01:56:27,640 --> 01:56:29,800 Speaker 10: to take one person to replace tie. It's not like 2597 01:56:29,880 --> 01:56:32,480 Speaker 10: we're going to all have to do it collectively. And 2598 01:56:32,520 --> 01:56:33,800 Speaker 10: that's the way we got to think about it. I 2599 01:56:33,840 --> 01:56:36,240 Speaker 10: think that that mentality of like, oh, the noumber one 2600 01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:38,360 Speaker 10: option and this is just it's kind of played out. 2601 01:56:38,400 --> 01:56:40,760 Speaker 10: Like I think if you look at it around, like 2602 01:56:40,840 --> 01:56:42,360 Speaker 10: you got to be a team to be able to win, 2603 01:56:42,440 --> 01:56:44,120 Speaker 10: Like you can be the number one at all you want, 2604 01:56:44,240 --> 01:56:46,680 Speaker 10: Like if your team don't win, it doesn't matter, and 2605 01:56:46,680 --> 01:56:48,640 Speaker 10: and and most of the time, you can't win alone, 2606 01:56:48,680 --> 01:56:51,600 Speaker 10: like you have to have a collective a group, and 2607 01:56:51,640 --> 01:56:53,720 Speaker 10: you got to do it together. So that's the way 2608 01:56:53,760 --> 01:56:57,880 Speaker 10: I'm approaching it. I'm excited though about like the like 2609 01:56:58,040 --> 01:57:02,080 Speaker 10: continue to step up as a leader, continue to make 2610 01:57:02,120 --> 01:57:06,280 Speaker 10: sure that I lead by example. And we had a 2611 01:57:06,320 --> 01:57:08,920 Speaker 10: lot of conversation with coach just just about setting the 2612 01:57:08,960 --> 01:57:11,520 Speaker 10: precedent and and again for us as a team, we've 2613 01:57:11,560 --> 01:57:14,680 Speaker 10: we've said the standard, like we this. We can't go 2614 01:57:14,800 --> 01:57:17,480 Speaker 10: under the standards that we said now, so we gotta 2615 01:57:17,520 --> 01:57:19,800 Speaker 10: we gotta go out there and do it every single night. 2616 01:57:19,840 --> 01:57:22,240 Speaker 10: And I got to be a leader out there in 2617 01:57:22,360 --> 01:57:24,120 Speaker 10: terms of that, Like I think that's that's what I 2618 01:57:24,160 --> 01:57:27,040 Speaker 10: care most about going out there doing the right things 2619 01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:28,720 Speaker 10: and uh and playing together as a team. 2620 01:57:29,160 --> 01:57:32,320 Speaker 1: That's what I love about everybody that I heard speak yesterday. 2621 01:57:33,120 --> 01:57:35,040 Speaker 1: This truly, in this day and age of the NBA, 2622 01:57:35,200 --> 01:57:38,680 Speaker 1: is a group, a collection of players that have bought 2623 01:57:38,720 --> 01:57:41,760 Speaker 1: into the Rick Carlisle system of it takes every single 2624 01:57:41,760 --> 01:57:45,120 Speaker 1: one of us. There is no one. Obviously Tyres became 2625 01:57:45,200 --> 01:57:47,800 Speaker 1: the face of this team, and he did amazing things 2626 01:57:47,840 --> 01:57:51,080 Speaker 1: as we all saw. But this idea that it's going 2627 01:57:51,120 --> 01:57:53,080 Speaker 1: to take all of us, usually in the NBA one 2628 01:57:53,160 --> 01:57:55,400 Speaker 1: or two guys and clear the other side out and 2629 01:57:55,480 --> 01:57:57,280 Speaker 1: let's go. The Pacers don't play that way. 2630 01:57:57,440 --> 01:57:57,640 Speaker 12: Yeah. 2631 01:57:57,680 --> 01:57:59,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think last year I said this quite often 2632 01:57:59,480 --> 01:58:02,400 Speaker 4: in the playoff. You know, there's a collegiate feel to 2633 01:58:03,240 --> 01:58:06,320 Speaker 4: the Indiana Pacers there, and that I think that's what 2634 01:58:06,520 --> 01:58:09,760 Speaker 4: kind of added to the heartbroken nature of what happened 2635 01:58:09,800 --> 01:58:12,200 Speaker 4: there in Game seven, how anything ended. It's like, damn, 2636 01:58:12,240 --> 01:58:15,160 Speaker 4: you know, you're not used to seeing the emotional state 2637 01:58:15,280 --> 01:58:20,120 Speaker 4: of all these tiers walking off the floor, and you know, 2638 01:58:20,160 --> 01:58:22,160 Speaker 4: it felt like whatever the high school. 2639 01:58:21,920 --> 01:58:24,640 Speaker 3: Team losing a heartbreaker and sectionals, or the college team, 2640 01:58:25,200 --> 01:58:28,520 Speaker 3: you know, losing a game short of the final four 2641 01:58:29,800 --> 01:58:31,560 Speaker 3: that's kind of the feel and boy, you could probably 2642 01:58:31,560 --> 01:58:34,360 Speaker 3: do a drinking game to the word standard yesterday. The 2643 01:58:34,400 --> 01:58:35,800 Speaker 3: Pacers do have a standard. 2644 01:58:36,080 --> 01:58:39,240 Speaker 1: They certainly either all accepted what has been said in 2645 01:58:39,240 --> 01:58:41,800 Speaker 1: the off season or they are good at their talking points. 2646 01:58:41,840 --> 01:58:44,400 Speaker 3: James Wood, I mean, I think it's easier to buy. 2647 01:58:44,400 --> 01:58:46,040 Speaker 3: And we have the success that they've had the last 2648 01:58:46,040 --> 01:58:49,000 Speaker 3: couple of years, I mean back to back conference finals 2649 01:58:49,080 --> 01:58:51,360 Speaker 3: runs and obviously last year going to the finals. And 2650 01:58:51,400 --> 01:58:53,560 Speaker 3: so when you have that amount of success and you 2651 01:58:53,600 --> 01:58:55,440 Speaker 3: tell the guys believe in us and believe what we're 2652 01:58:55,440 --> 01:58:57,920 Speaker 3: trying to do here, yeah, I would certainly, you know, 2653 01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:00,520 Speaker 3: be more inclined to listen if I've seen what these 2654 01:59:00,520 --> 01:59:02,880 Speaker 3: other guys are doing. So I'm very curiously how it 2655 01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:04,760 Speaker 3: all shakes out. I do think there's gonna be some 2656 01:59:04,760 --> 01:59:08,320 Speaker 3: growing pains within that because when you expand the certain roles, 2657 01:59:09,320 --> 01:59:11,080 Speaker 3: you start to see what guys are star players and 2658 01:59:11,120 --> 01:59:14,480 Speaker 3: some guys aren't. Like, for example, I trust that Andrew 2659 01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:16,720 Speaker 3: nim Hart can take another step forward, but can he 2660 01:59:16,800 --> 01:59:19,280 Speaker 3: be a star I'm not so sure about that. I 2661 01:59:19,280 --> 01:59:21,280 Speaker 3: don't know, because I think I don't want to take 2662 01:59:21,400 --> 01:59:25,600 Speaker 3: what Tyrese Halliburton has done for granted at that point 2663 01:59:25,600 --> 01:59:27,680 Speaker 3: guard position, and in the same way with Benedict Mather 2664 01:59:27,760 --> 01:59:29,960 Speaker 3: and it's like you want, you wanted a bigger role 2665 01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:31,880 Speaker 3: here and now you have it. What does that look 2666 01:59:31,920 --> 01:59:33,400 Speaker 3: like on a nine to night basis when we rely 2667 01:59:33,560 --> 01:59:38,240 Speaker 3: on you to, you know, play more pacers brand of 2668 01:59:38,280 --> 01:59:41,280 Speaker 3: basketball where they want him to move the ball pretty fast, 2669 01:59:41,360 --> 01:59:44,080 Speaker 3: make quick decisions. But also I do think that the 2670 01:59:44,160 --> 01:59:46,879 Speaker 3: after sib Tyreez kind of lends itself to that Benedict 2671 01:59:46,880 --> 01:59:48,880 Speaker 3: be more of who he is naturally, which is I 2672 01:59:48,920 --> 01:59:50,640 Speaker 3: got good, go get you a bucket. So what does 2673 01:59:50,640 --> 01:59:52,760 Speaker 3: that dynamic look like for him throughout the season and 2674 01:59:52,800 --> 01:59:56,040 Speaker 3: the other guys as well, like TJ McConnell, older guard, 2675 01:59:56,440 --> 02:00:00,200 Speaker 3: bigger role. Can he still be that energizer bunny. He's 2676 02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:02,240 Speaker 3: playing more minutes a night than he was last year. 2677 02:00:02,280 --> 02:00:04,560 Speaker 3: So all these things are a factor for sure. But 2678 02:00:05,120 --> 02:00:07,040 Speaker 3: the number one thing is we know, as we will 2679 02:00:07,040 --> 02:00:09,600 Speaker 3: have him on our airwaves dropped the season, why Carlisle 2680 02:00:09,680 --> 02:00:11,840 Speaker 3: will not make any excuses for this ball club at all, 2681 02:00:11,920 --> 02:00:14,600 Speaker 3: and so they know what's a stake. And unlike when 2682 02:00:14,640 --> 02:00:16,360 Speaker 3: ty Rees went down at the end of the season 2683 02:00:16,480 --> 02:00:18,600 Speaker 3: and during the finals and in Game seven, you're just 2684 02:00:18,640 --> 02:00:21,000 Speaker 3: trying to figure out how to win one game without him. 2685 02:00:21,360 --> 02:00:23,600 Speaker 3: This time around, you're going into a year having to 2686 02:00:23,680 --> 02:00:26,360 Speaker 3: prepare for his absence, and so you have more of 2687 02:00:26,400 --> 02:00:28,440 Speaker 3: a game plane. 2688 02:00:27,680 --> 02:00:29,520 Speaker 1: And you just hope getting back to what you're saying 2689 02:00:29,520 --> 02:00:33,040 Speaker 1: about Mather, and you can't help but think that those 2690 02:00:33,160 --> 02:00:38,120 Speaker 1: big moments he had in big playoff games start to 2691 02:00:38,200 --> 02:00:40,400 Speaker 1: lay the foundation that, yeah, I can be this guy. 2692 02:00:40,520 --> 02:00:42,840 Speaker 1: I can do this all the time. I've performed in 2693 02:00:42,880 --> 02:00:45,800 Speaker 1: big moments and big games at big times. Now I 2694 02:00:45,840 --> 02:00:47,440 Speaker 1: need to do it eighty two nights a year. 2695 02:00:48,000 --> 02:00:49,920 Speaker 4: I think the Mathering conversation is one of the more 2696 02:00:49,920 --> 02:00:55,080 Speaker 4: fascinating ones that honestly, we've had in this market in 2697 02:00:55,240 --> 02:00:58,160 Speaker 4: a little bit of time. It's like every time you 2698 02:00:58,240 --> 02:01:01,520 Speaker 4: hear the Pacers talk about and every time you hear 2699 02:01:01,600 --> 02:01:06,480 Speaker 4: matherin get asked questions. It so much revolves around, hey, 2700 02:01:06,520 --> 02:01:11,480 Speaker 4: can you fit us? Can you adjust to us? And 2701 02:01:12,280 --> 02:01:15,040 Speaker 4: I understand it, but I also sit in here like, 2702 02:01:15,960 --> 02:01:17,760 Speaker 4: then this dude have two twenty point games in the 2703 02:01:17,840 --> 02:01:20,920 Speaker 4: NBA Finals off the bench, I mean. 2704 02:01:20,920 --> 02:01:22,120 Speaker 1: Like that's impressive. 2705 02:01:22,360 --> 02:01:23,760 Speaker 3: Is that stuff just grow on trees? 2706 02:01:24,240 --> 02:01:24,320 Speaker 2: Like? 2707 02:01:24,520 --> 02:01:26,720 Speaker 3: No, he was the third leading scorer on a team. 2708 02:01:26,560 --> 02:01:29,000 Speaker 4: That got to the NBA Finals at the age of 2709 02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:35,040 Speaker 4: what twenty twenty two. I get that you want to 2710 02:01:35,320 --> 02:01:39,800 Speaker 4: continue to see growth in him, But as he is, 2711 02:01:40,640 --> 02:01:44,839 Speaker 4: it's a pretty darn good player and a pretty unique 2712 02:01:44,840 --> 02:01:49,160 Speaker 4: player to how the Pacers are set up. So, boy, 2713 02:01:49,200 --> 02:01:51,320 Speaker 4: the mathering conversation is going nowhere. It's going to be 2714 02:01:51,360 --> 02:01:53,640 Speaker 4: front and center all year long. To James's point, I mean, 2715 02:01:53,640 --> 02:01:56,840 Speaker 4: he's going to be kind of that lead guy. You know, 2716 02:01:56,880 --> 02:01:58,760 Speaker 4: you would think and you know how to end the 2717 02:01:58,760 --> 02:02:01,200 Speaker 4: game situations go, is it in em hard and Siakam 2718 02:02:01,200 --> 02:02:03,480 Speaker 4: in the two man game? Does Matheren get involved in 2719 02:02:03,560 --> 02:02:04,120 Speaker 4: any of that? 2720 02:02:04,960 --> 02:02:06,840 Speaker 3: You know? Nie Smith is still a young player. Is 2721 02:02:06,840 --> 02:02:08,240 Speaker 3: there a scent in his game? 2722 02:02:08,360 --> 02:02:13,400 Speaker 4: But I am bullish on the Pacers being a playoff team. 2723 02:02:13,760 --> 02:02:15,480 Speaker 4: But at the same time, and James hit on this 2724 02:02:15,600 --> 02:02:17,760 Speaker 4: right at the start of the segment, I think there 2725 02:02:17,800 --> 02:02:20,200 Speaker 4: will be many nights where we sit here the next 2726 02:02:20,240 --> 02:02:25,360 Speaker 4: morning and say, damn, Tyrese Halliburton does so so much 2727 02:02:25,520 --> 02:02:27,800 Speaker 4: for this basketball team. And it's not just purely the 2728 02:02:27,840 --> 02:02:30,720 Speaker 4: points and assist numbers. It is the ability to get 2729 02:02:30,800 --> 02:02:34,680 Speaker 4: Nie Smith. Instead of Nie Smith getting six clean looks tonight, 2730 02:02:35,080 --> 02:02:37,920 Speaker 4: does that turn into three clean looks without Halliburton, just 2731 02:02:37,960 --> 02:02:41,040 Speaker 4: like that little example of it. And honestly, you should 2732 02:02:41,080 --> 02:02:43,920 Speaker 4: factor in center too, because I mentioned earlier in the 2733 02:02:43,960 --> 02:02:47,600 Speaker 4: show you hear that Siakam audio, he was very public 2734 02:02:47,640 --> 02:02:49,720 Speaker 4: in a sprays from Miles Turner in the. 2735 02:02:49,600 --> 02:02:50,600 Speaker 3: Fit next to him. 2736 02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:53,920 Speaker 4: Well, Isaiah Jackson, while he has different you know, attributes 2737 02:02:53,920 --> 02:02:56,080 Speaker 4: that he brings the center position, one of them is 2738 02:02:56,080 --> 02:02:58,400 Speaker 4: not stretching the floor. So what does that do to 2739 02:02:58,480 --> 02:03:03,960 Speaker 4: your overall starting lineup, particularly Seacom's ability to work in space? 2740 02:03:04,800 --> 02:03:07,480 Speaker 1: All right, that's the Pacers who are back to work 2741 02:03:07,560 --> 02:03:09,840 Speaker 1: just off Delaware Street and getting ready to go for 2742 02:03:09,920 --> 02:03:12,280 Speaker 1: another NBA season come up in moment. It is going 2743 02:03:12,320 --> 02:03:16,280 Speaker 1: to be an intense, busy, fun night for all of 2744 02:03:16,360 --> 02:03:19,280 Speaker 1: us here in Indianapolis tonight. We'll talk about it next 2745 02:03:19,320 --> 02:03:23,480 Speaker 1: on ninety three five and one seven five the fan Mark. 2746 02:03:23,520 --> 02:03:25,520 Speaker 1: We all need some help. I certainly need some help. 2747 02:03:25,680 --> 02:03:29,240 Speaker 1: I'm looking at our fan show fantasy league, and right 2748 02:03:29,280 --> 02:03:35,440 Speaker 1: now I've got Aaron Jones on injured reserve. I now 2749 02:03:35,480 --> 02:03:38,520 Speaker 1: have Tyreek Hill out for the season, Terry McLaurin is 2750 02:03:38,640 --> 02:03:41,960 Speaker 1: out for a while, Darnell Mooney is questionable I'm gonna 2751 02:03:42,000 --> 02:03:45,280 Speaker 1: have to go find me a wide receiver somewhere, my man. Yeah. 2752 02:03:45,320 --> 02:03:47,680 Speaker 5: So this is going to be a very fascinating week 2753 02:03:47,720 --> 02:03:50,120 Speaker 5: for if you're involved in fantasy football at all, because 2754 02:03:50,160 --> 02:03:53,040 Speaker 5: not only are there some major injuries going on, but 2755 02:03:53,080 --> 02:03:55,880 Speaker 5: we also were in the first bye week of the season, 2756 02:03:55,880 --> 02:03:59,040 Speaker 5: so the Packers, Bears, Steelers, Falcons all on buy. So 2757 02:03:59,480 --> 02:04:02,080 Speaker 5: some big name players not going to be playing this week. 2758 02:04:02,360 --> 02:04:05,160 Speaker 5: Plus you lost Tyreek Hill last night, Malik Neighbors out 2759 02:04:05,160 --> 02:04:08,800 Speaker 5: for the season, some big names already lost on the 2760 02:04:08,800 --> 02:04:11,720 Speaker 5: wide receiver front. As we only enter Week five of 2761 02:04:11,760 --> 02:04:15,560 Speaker 5: the season. I would turn you toward Rashid Shahed from 2762 02:04:15,560 --> 02:04:18,400 Speaker 5: the Saints if he's available. He's still around about forty 2763 02:04:18,400 --> 02:04:20,920 Speaker 5: percent of leagues. Another one to keep an eye on 2764 02:04:21,400 --> 02:04:23,680 Speaker 5: Darius Slayton of the Giants. He's expected to pick up 2765 02:04:23,720 --> 02:04:26,480 Speaker 5: the slack with Neighbors out. He's available in over ninety 2766 02:04:26,520 --> 02:04:28,520 Speaker 5: seven percent of leagues. So a guy who's probably going 2767 02:04:28,560 --> 02:04:31,720 Speaker 5: to see an uptick in his in his looks per 2768 02:04:31,800 --> 02:04:33,840 Speaker 5: game has just gone up with Jackson Dart. So I 2769 02:04:33,880 --> 02:04:36,160 Speaker 5: would look at those two guys to see if they're available. 2770 02:04:36,160 --> 02:04:39,040 Speaker 5: So forty percent for Shaheed, about ninety seven percent for 2771 02:04:40,480 --> 02:04:46,680 Speaker 5: Darius Slayton running back Wise target Texans running back Woody Marx, 2772 02:04:46,720 --> 02:04:48,720 Speaker 5: who's starting to get more run available in about seventy 2773 02:04:48,720 --> 02:04:51,040 Speaker 5: percent of the League's probably gonna be one of the 2774 02:04:51,040 --> 02:04:53,840 Speaker 5: top ads of the week. And also we talked about 2775 02:04:53,880 --> 02:04:55,760 Speaker 5: this guy last week. He's still available in quite a 2776 02:04:55,760 --> 02:04:59,320 Speaker 5: few leagues. Amaro de Mercado of the Cardinals. He's starting 2777 02:04:59,320 --> 02:05:01,840 Speaker 5: to get more run, got a touchdown late, He's starting 2778 02:05:01,880 --> 02:05:04,560 Speaker 5: to get more reps. If you can find him around 2779 02:05:04,560 --> 02:05:06,280 Speaker 5: there and you're looking for some running back help, that 2780 02:05:06,480 --> 02:05:09,000 Speaker 5: is a way to go. Also, defensively, Packers rounded by 2781 02:05:09,320 --> 02:05:11,320 Speaker 5: now that they've been very, very great in that shootout 2782 02:05:11,320 --> 02:05:14,800 Speaker 5: against the Cowboys, but the Browns are available. The Brown's defense, 2783 02:05:15,080 --> 02:05:17,120 Speaker 5: the Browns offense not so good. The Browns defense is 2784 02:05:17,160 --> 02:05:19,280 Speaker 5: pretty good. Try to target them if you're looking for 2785 02:05:19,320 --> 02:05:22,000 Speaker 5: a defensive replacement, but the Packers defense are one of 2786 02:05:22,000 --> 02:05:23,240 Speaker 5: the other defenses on By. 2787 02:05:23,360 --> 02:05:25,960 Speaker 1: This week, it's been a tough one. I know. We 2788 02:05:26,040 --> 02:05:28,840 Speaker 1: got the games coming up tonight, Dual TV night with 2789 02:05:28,880 --> 02:05:31,360 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Aces and Indiana Fever going at nine 2790 02:05:31,360 --> 02:05:34,080 Speaker 1: point thirty, and of course at nine o'clock, the Red's 2791 02:05:34,120 --> 02:05:36,640 Speaker 1: taking on the Dodgers and before that, Cubs playing this 2792 02:05:36,720 --> 02:05:40,280 Speaker 1: afternoon at three o'clock. So what is your viewing habit 2793 02:05:40,920 --> 02:05:42,640 Speaker 1: du joure today, Kevin bow. 2794 02:05:42,600 --> 02:05:44,160 Speaker 4: Well, you got to pump the coffee in and then 2795 02:05:44,400 --> 02:05:46,480 Speaker 4: we will hear from the Colts coordinators a little bit 2796 02:05:46,520 --> 02:05:49,600 Speaker 4: after noon today, So Loui Ana Roumo, it'll be interesting 2797 02:05:49,640 --> 02:05:53,000 Speaker 4: to hear his thoughts on where things are at. Obviously 2798 02:05:53,080 --> 02:05:55,040 Speaker 4: a lot of storylines on his side of the ball, 2799 02:05:55,200 --> 02:05:57,920 Speaker 4: and where's he at with Xavian Howard, things like that 2800 02:05:58,400 --> 02:06:01,000 Speaker 4: coming up a little bit after noon today before the 2801 02:06:01,000 --> 02:06:03,160 Speaker 4: Colts get back to work on Wednesday. 2802 02:06:03,280 --> 02:06:06,480 Speaker 3: What you're a TV viewing look like tonight, James Boyd Fever, 2803 02:06:07,320 --> 02:06:09,160 Speaker 3: that's the main thing, trying to see if they will 2804 02:06:09,560 --> 02:06:11,800 Speaker 3: go to the finals like the Pacers did, which I 2805 02:06:11,840 --> 02:06:15,360 Speaker 3: think there probably a very rare occurrence for two teams 2806 02:06:15,440 --> 02:06:18,120 Speaker 3: from the same city WNBA and NBA. It's advanced to 2807 02:06:18,120 --> 02:06:20,120 Speaker 3: the finals in the same calendar year. You could ever happen. 2808 02:06:20,800 --> 02:06:23,920 Speaker 3: I'm sure it has happened before, but I would imagine 2809 02:06:23,960 --> 02:06:25,200 Speaker 3: again it's probably pretty rare. 2810 02:06:26,200 --> 02:06:29,160 Speaker 1: Well again, nine thirty, if you're you know, some people 2811 02:06:29,200 --> 02:06:31,840 Speaker 1: will be at work or driving around or whatever. If 2812 02:06:31,880 --> 02:06:34,080 Speaker 1: you can't get to a TV screen. You can listen 2813 02:06:34,080 --> 02:06:36,720 Speaker 1: to the Fever at nine thirty with the tip time 2814 02:06:36,760 --> 02:06:39,320 Speaker 1: in the nine to fifteen pregame show with Eddie Garrison 2815 02:06:39,360 --> 02:06:41,760 Speaker 1: here on ninety three five and one oh seven five. 2816 02:06:42,240 --> 02:06:45,960 Speaker 1: I did finish up Ozark last night, Mark thoughts. I'm 2817 02:06:45,960 --> 02:06:49,080 Speaker 1: still processing the whole thing. I suppose they probably ended 2818 02:06:49,120 --> 02:06:52,240 Speaker 1: at about the way it needed to be ended. I 2819 02:06:52,240 --> 02:06:53,920 Speaker 1: don't know if I should say any spoilers or I mean, 2820 02:06:53,960 --> 02:06:56,000 Speaker 1: the show has been over for what three four years? 2821 02:06:56,040 --> 02:06:58,280 Speaker 1: I was very late to the party. I knew it 2822 02:06:58,320 --> 02:06:59,720 Speaker 1: was going to happen, like I just knew it was 2823 02:06:59,720 --> 02:07:01,840 Speaker 1: going to happened, But man, I didn't want to see 2824 02:07:01,920 --> 02:07:04,120 Speaker 1: Ruth go. She'd finally turned it all around and gotten 2825 02:07:04,160 --> 02:07:04,840 Speaker 1: herself together. 2826 02:07:05,040 --> 02:07:07,680 Speaker 3: Mm hmmm, mm hmm. Well you just let's let's a 2827 02:07:07,680 --> 02:07:10,400 Speaker 3: spoiler there. So no, I just said, you. 2828 02:07:10,320 --> 02:07:12,120 Speaker 7: Know, there's that. 2829 02:07:12,560 --> 02:07:14,640 Speaker 1: But the show's been over for how long now, I 2830 02:07:14,680 --> 02:07:15,000 Speaker 1: don't know. 2831 02:07:15,080 --> 02:07:16,840 Speaker 3: I can't remember twenty two. 2832 02:07:16,920 --> 02:07:18,080 Speaker 1: I think it ended there. 2833 02:07:18,080 --> 02:07:20,760 Speaker 3: You go, Yeah, we didn't spoil it for you. We 2834 02:07:20,800 --> 02:07:22,160 Speaker 3: waited so you got to watch it. 2835 02:07:22,920 --> 02:07:23,760 Speaker 1: Were you gonna watch it? 2836 02:07:23,840 --> 02:07:26,200 Speaker 3: James, I've seen it, okay, So I didn't spoil it. 2837 02:07:26,240 --> 02:07:28,880 Speaker 1: There you go. What did you think of the ending 2838 02:07:28,920 --> 02:07:30,440 Speaker 1: with that saying too much? 2839 02:07:30,640 --> 02:07:32,960 Speaker 3: I mean it's been so long. I I would have 2840 02:07:33,000 --> 02:07:34,520 Speaker 3: to take your word for it. I haven't watched it 2841 02:07:34,640 --> 02:07:35,520 Speaker 3: in some years now. 2842 02:07:35,720 --> 02:07:38,120 Speaker 1: I've noticed that too when you binge watch things. If 2843 02:07:38,160 --> 02:07:40,400 Speaker 1: you guys noticed that, like a year later after the 2844 02:07:40,400 --> 02:07:42,200 Speaker 1: binge watch, you forget a lot of it. Maybe you 2845 02:07:42,440 --> 02:07:43,720 Speaker 1: took too much in too fast. 2846 02:07:43,840 --> 02:07:45,440 Speaker 5: That's the problem with these TV shows that take like 2847 02:07:45,480 --> 02:07:47,440 Speaker 5: a year or two in between shows, and like like 2848 02:07:47,480 --> 02:07:50,360 Speaker 5: Stranger Things, I'm like, I don't remember what the hell happened. Like, no, 2849 02:07:50,400 --> 02:07:51,040 Speaker 5: I don't remember. 2850 02:07:51,080 --> 02:07:52,920 Speaker 3: I'm done with Stranger Things. I mean outside of the 2851 02:07:52,920 --> 02:07:55,240 Speaker 3: Fevers jerseys, which I mean I do like those. Those 2852 02:07:55,280 --> 02:07:57,760 Speaker 3: are pretty I still rock them. Yeah, those are sweet. 2853 02:07:57,840 --> 02:08:01,640 Speaker 5: But the show itself, I mean, all those kids grown now. Yeah, 2854 02:08:01,680 --> 02:08:04,280 Speaker 5: like in between seasons they grow like three or four years. 2855 02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:07,960 Speaker 5: They're still in elementary school. Like these kids are twenty 2856 02:08:07,960 --> 02:08:11,000 Speaker 5: some years old. They're dropping forty fives. What are we 2857 02:08:11,080 --> 02:08:11,600 Speaker 5: talking about. 2858 02:08:11,640 --> 02:08:13,960 Speaker 1: It'd be like the Grease movie where everybody playing the 2859 02:08:14,000 --> 02:08:17,240 Speaker 1: high school kids is thirty two, right, yeah, yeah, so. 2860 02:08:17,200 --> 02:08:20,200 Speaker 3: I'm looking at it now. Yeah, eleven Millie Bobby Brown, 2861 02:08:20,760 --> 02:08:25,080 Speaker 3: Millie Bonnie Brown is twenty one, so yeah, she's married 2862 02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:26,720 Speaker 3: and I think she's it's been a while to do 2863 02:08:26,920 --> 02:08:28,080 Speaker 3: and she was eleven. 2864 02:08:28,440 --> 02:08:31,280 Speaker 4: Games quick little scan of it twenty one. You had 2865 02:08:31,320 --> 02:08:34,800 Speaker 4: both the Phoenix teams, so Sons and Mercury in the finals. 2866 02:08:34,800 --> 02:08:36,120 Speaker 4: You got to go all the way back to the 2867 02:08:36,280 --> 02:08:40,440 Speaker 4: LA teams in the early two thousands. So hasn't happened 2868 02:08:40,920 --> 02:08:43,760 Speaker 4: too often NBA and a WNBA team from the same 2869 02:08:43,800 --> 02:08:46,560 Speaker 4: city in the finals. Point I was reminded of scrolling 2870 02:08:46,600 --> 02:08:49,400 Speaker 4: through it. Remember the Detroit Shocked. There's so many WNBA 2871 02:08:49,440 --> 02:08:52,400 Speaker 4: teams that don't exist anymore, and they were like a dynasty. Yeah, 2872 02:08:52,520 --> 02:08:53,839 Speaker 4: aren't they getting like re upped. 2873 02:08:53,720 --> 02:08:57,080 Speaker 3: The Houston comments. Remember how good Cynthia Cooper was, Yeah, 2874 02:08:57,120 --> 02:08:59,120 Speaker 3: I think she's one like something crazy like four straight. 2875 02:09:01,600 --> 02:09:04,400 Speaker 1: She was amazing. But Chryl Swoops was on that team 2876 02:09:04,440 --> 02:09:04,760 Speaker 1: as well. 2877 02:09:04,800 --> 02:09:07,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, they loaded loaded the game. That was. 2878 02:09:08,600 --> 02:09:10,800 Speaker 1: That was you know, as great as the talent is now, 2879 02:09:10,840 --> 02:09:12,760 Speaker 1: and it's probably better than it ever has been. Top 2880 02:09:12,800 --> 02:09:15,360 Speaker 1: to bottom, the top level talent in the in the 2881 02:09:15,440 --> 02:09:18,480 Speaker 1: late nineties and early two thousands was really insane. I 2882 02:09:18,520 --> 02:09:21,040 Speaker 1: can look at some of those those teams. But tonight 2883 02:09:21,080 --> 02:09:23,240 Speaker 1: the Fever will try to make their mark game five 2884 02:09:23,280 --> 02:09:25,320 Speaker 1: of the semi final series. If they can get back 2885 02:09:25,680 --> 02:09:27,800 Speaker 1: to a w NBA finals. Remember, they've won, they have 2886 02:09:27,880 --> 02:09:31,200 Speaker 1: won a championship. We'll see if they can do it again. 2887 02:09:31,440 --> 02:09:32,840 Speaker 1: But they got a lot of work to do yet. 2888 02:09:32,920 --> 02:09:35,400 Speaker 1: Still and again nine thirty is the tip tonight. That'll 2889 02:09:35,440 --> 02:09:37,640 Speaker 1: be on ESPN TV. I believe James. 2890 02:09:38,920 --> 02:09:40,080 Speaker 3: I'll double checked myself. 2891 02:09:40,160 --> 02:09:42,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I believe ESPN two. I think Playoff Baseball is 2892 02:09:42,680 --> 02:09:46,400 Speaker 4: on ESPN and I believe ESPN two, And I think 2893 02:09:46,440 --> 02:09:49,160 Speaker 4: the finals would start on Friday. I want to say, 2894 02:09:49,520 --> 02:09:51,560 Speaker 4: if the Fever would win again next week, they would 2895 02:09:51,560 --> 02:09:53,360 Speaker 4: have the home games in the finals if they were 2896 02:09:53,360 --> 02:09:56,640 Speaker 4: able to get it done tonight, big underdog Vegas is 2897 02:09:56,720 --> 02:09:59,280 Speaker 4: doubting them. We'll see if the Fever can go back 2898 02:09:59,280 --> 02:10:00,720 Speaker 4: to Vegas and do it. They did in Game one, 2899 02:10:00,760 --> 02:10:03,200 Speaker 4: seven and a half point underdog here the Fever tonight. 2900 02:10:03,640 --> 02:10:05,040 Speaker 1: Oh, like I said, got to get off to a 2901 02:10:05,120 --> 02:10:07,200 Speaker 1: quick start. That's the one thing we know about this series. Man. 2902 02:10:07,240 --> 02:10:10,000 Speaker 1: They have not shown the ability to rally from a 2903 02:10:10,040 --> 02:10:13,040 Speaker 1: double digit different They've done it with other teams, but 2904 02:10:13,120 --> 02:10:15,560 Speaker 1: not against Las Vegas. James the other night they got 2905 02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:18,200 Speaker 1: down fifteen, they just never could really get back close. 2906 02:10:18,720 --> 02:10:20,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, you do not want to give them any life 2907 02:10:20,960 --> 02:10:22,640 Speaker 3: early on. You want to make sure you're in the 2908 02:10:22,680 --> 02:10:24,840 Speaker 3: game throughout the game. And as we always say, if 2909 02:10:24,840 --> 02:10:26,160 Speaker 3: you get down to the wire and it's a one 2910 02:10:26,160 --> 02:10:29,080 Speaker 3: two possession game, it's anybody's chance to go onto the finals. 2911 02:10:29,160 --> 02:10:30,960 Speaker 1: It also feels in one game like it could become 2912 02:10:31,000 --> 02:10:32,440 Speaker 1: a three point shooting contest too. 2913 02:10:32,640 --> 02:10:34,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of March Madness field. It's one game 2914 02:10:34,920 --> 02:10:35,720 Speaker 3: for all the marbles. 2915 02:10:35,800 --> 02:10:37,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So that'll be coming up later on 2916 02:10:37,800 --> 02:10:40,280 Speaker 1: that and I appreciate all your contributions today.
