1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: Big win for Indiana in poly Pavilion over UCLA over 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: the weekend. It is tomorrow night against the Trojans of 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: USC That game ten o'clock Local time, seven o'clock, of 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: course on the West coast, and can be heard on 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: our sister station ninety three WIBC joining us now on 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: the Java House, Peel and Port guest line. He is 7 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: the voice of the Indiana Hoosiers. Don Fisher joining us 8 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 1: and Don, I'm not going to lie to you. I 9 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: thought that game was about to go into a third 10 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: overtime because I was at the Pacer game and was 11 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: looking at my phone and following it that way on 12 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: the game cast, and it got a little hiccuped, and 13 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: I said, oh, it's going to be a triple overtime. 14 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: And someone close to me said Don Fisher is going 15 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: to lose his voice, and I said, I doubt it, man, 16 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: He's had plenty of two steps over the last couple 17 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: of weeks. 18 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 2: But let's begin with this. 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: You know, you could look at the end of the 20 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: regulation and be disappointed in Indiana's lack of ability to close. 21 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: But I'd rather be the optimist and say that it 22 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: took a lot of fortitude and strength, especially when Ucla 23 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: ramped up their defense to find a way to win 24 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: that game. That to me was the kind of game 25 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: that you can look towards and say, maybe that's springboards 26 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: a little bit towards something here. 27 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 2: What did you see from your perspective. 28 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 3: Well, the one thing that I saw was, and I 29 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 3: think this is what's crucial to this basketball team right now, 30 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: is a toughness factor. I just think that these guys, 31 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: First of all, they had three guys that fill out 32 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 3: of the ballgame and weren't even available at the end, 33 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 3: and they came up with other people. The other guys 34 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 3: who got in the ballgame stepped up, I thought really 35 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 3: played well in that context. Trent Sistley, of course, made 36 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: a critical free throw at the end, and the correct 37 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 3: call was made on the ball that went out of bounds. 38 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 3: They said it was going to be Indiana's ball, and 39 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 3: everybody went nuts in the building without question, And I 40 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 3: understand why they did, because it did look initially like 41 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: it was touched by an Indiana player, but when he 42 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 3: went back and looked at it, the ball changed. When 43 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 3: somebody from Ucla, I don't even know who the player was, 44 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 3: but he flicked it with his finger and that ball 45 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 3: started turning a different way, and that's why they made 46 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 3: the judgment that they did. But it was Indiana's ball, 47 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 3: gave Indiana chance to make the free throw in that, 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: of course, the opportunity to win the ball game. So 49 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 3: I just saw a toughness factor, Jake that we hadn't 50 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 3: really seen in that four game losing streak that they had. 51 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 3: And now all of a sudden, here they've won three 52 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: in a row. They beat Purdue obviously, which was huge. Obviously, 53 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 3: the win over Rutgers kind of got them started a 54 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 3: little bit, got some confidence back on the road, and 55 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: then they beat Purdue at home, and now they've beating 56 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 3: UCLA on the road and hopefully they can do the 57 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: same against USC tomorrow night. 58 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: And you know, one of the guys don Don Fisher 59 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: my guest here the voice of the Hoosiers, Nick Dorn. Obviously, 60 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: he has played very well, and you know, he's a 61 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: guy that's been there and has hit some shots over 62 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: the course of the year. But the last three games, 63 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: notably the last two, you know, he's become this really 64 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 1: big complimentary piece along with Lamar Wilkerson. And then you 65 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: get read Bailey, and you know Tucker Devrees doing some 66 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: things as well. But let's go back to Nick Dorn. Suddenly, 67 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: this emergence as a secondary score, a number two guy 68 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 1: if you will, for Indiana, scoring the basketball and being 69 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: reliable offensively for them. Is that a matter of Darren 70 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: de Rees finding something in a scheme to get him 71 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: involved or is it just kind of a hot hand 72 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: confidence thing and let's ride it. 73 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: Well. 74 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 3: They have said all along going into the season that 75 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 3: Nick Dorn would end up being one of the key 76 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: players on this team shooting the basketball. The difference was 77 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: that he was hurt and he did not. He didn't 78 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: start playing until I think it was in December, mid 79 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: December that he finally got some playing time and started 80 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 3: coming out and getting an opportunity. And of course it 81 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 3: started slowly, but I think the first shot he ever 82 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: took for India, he made a three pointer. So he 83 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: knew that he had the tools. The question was could 84 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 3: he get back into basketball shape and those kinds of 85 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 3: things and start playing the kind of ball that they 86 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 3: anticipated that he would bring to the table when they 87 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 3: got him in the transfer portal. And he has done that, 88 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 3: and he's done it in spades at this point, because 89 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 3: he has really comme on starting to play some of 90 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 3: the best basketball on his team right now. And he's 91 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 3: got a couple of things. He still needs to work 92 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 3: on his defense a little bit. He needs to become 93 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: more of a rebound factor at six seven, and he's 94 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 3: got that physical body. But he's also starting to go 95 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: to the basket more too, and because people are starting 96 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 3: to play on him very tough as far as the 97 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 3: three point shot and getting somebody to just kind of 98 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 3: faceguard him, so to speak. And so he's starting to 99 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 3: drive the basketball on top of that. He's a skilled player, 100 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 3: he's got the tools, and he's really going to help 101 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 3: this team throughout the rest of the season. 102 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: Don It's it's still to me, and I'm sure it 103 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: is for you too, you know, and this will probably 104 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: be the case for another ten years. But while I 105 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: think it's cool, it is still surreal to think that 106 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: there's a conference. You know, I remember when the conference 107 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: two step road trip used to be Northwestern Wisconsin. Right, 108 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 1: you're going on that road trip and that was the 109 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: big one. So here you are on the West coast. 110 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: I'm assuming obviously Indiana has stayed out in the La 111 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: Area after the UCLA game into usc And that's what 112 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: we're talking to you. What sort of things does the 113 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: team do, I mean, just in terms of how they 114 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: manage the time management of being out on the West 115 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: coast and the acclamation and the free time and the 116 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: practice schedule and everything else. Can you kind of let 117 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: us know how things work out in that regard. 118 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 3: Well, I think, I mean, they definitely try to find 119 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 3: things for the team to do. 120 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 5: Yesterday they went to. 121 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 3: A movie, and today they're going to have practice, to 122 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 3: have a full practice today. Obviously, yesterday was a day 123 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 3: after the ballgame, which you know, they needed rest, they 124 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 3: needed to stay out their feet. They looked at film, 125 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: but they don't go overboard with it. Darren Debriez is 126 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 3: very much in the same camp as Kurt Signetti in 127 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 3: regard to less as more. In other words, we're going 128 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: to go out there and when we do practice, when 129 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: we do these things, we're going to do it one 130 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 3: hundred percent and we're going to go as hard as 131 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: we possibly can. But after a ballgame like that, you 132 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 3: had a trip, a double overtime performance by this Indiana 133 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 3: ball club. They were wore out and they did have 134 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 3: guys who played a ton of minutes in that ballgame. 135 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 5: They needed some rest. 136 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: So they're off their feet as much as they can 137 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 3: get them off their feet in that context. Today they'll 138 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: have a full practice. They're going out for a state 139 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 3: dinner this evening, I think, is what is on the 140 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 3: schedule at some point. But the team breakfast isn't even 141 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: until ten o'clock this morning, which is another twenty five 142 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 3: minutes or close to twenty five minutes away, So they 143 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 3: want these guys to get a lot of rest at 144 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 3: this point. Then they'll have a really good practice later 145 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 3: this afternoon, and then they'll they'll go and have dinner 146 00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: this evening. So and there is definitely there's free time, 147 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 3: and I'm sure some of these guys that are taking 148 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 3: classes and those kinds of things are dealing with that 149 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 3: on this trip as well. But again, I think when 150 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 3: you're on a West coast what road trip like this, 151 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: and you've got five days that you're spending out here, 152 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 3: it gets a little boring to save a lease for 153 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 3: some of these guys. That's why I played golf yesterday. 154 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: Nice there's got to be some good golf out there, right. 155 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: I played with an iu alum that graduated in the 156 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 3: ninety two and he got us on Brentwood Country Club, 157 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 3: which was really really cool. 158 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: It's good to say, Don, But here's the thing. I 159 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: have a feeling that you would have found a way 160 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: to play golf if you were at the Great Alaskan Shootout, right, 161 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: is that right? 162 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 4: Well? 163 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: Trust me, if I could find a golf course in Alaska, 164 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 3: that's right, I would definitely play it, There's no doubt. 165 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 2: Hey, the you know, trips like this I've always done. 166 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: And we've talked about this before, Don, in terms of 167 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: just team cohesiveness. And the reason I bring it up 168 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: is because, like the football team, for example, this is 169 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: a roster and maybe this is true in today's college athletics, 170 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: but it's a roster that, upon their first game, was 171 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: still learning one another and you know, they were put 172 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: together kind of last minute, this roster. At what point 173 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: in the season, Maybe it's not even now, maybe it 174 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: was prior to now, But at what point did you 175 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: feel like you could really start to see it gelling together, 176 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: where guys understood the tendencies of everybody on the floor 177 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: with one another. 178 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 3: Well, this is going to start, This is going to 179 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 3: sound kind of crazy to you. 180 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 4: Jake. 181 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 3: But when I went to Puerto Rico with the team 182 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 3: this summer, I just wanted to go. I wanted to 183 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 3: get to know the coach, the coaching staff, the players, 184 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 3: be around them, you know, to get a feel for them, 185 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 3: see what kind of players they were, what kind of 186 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 3: people they were. And as soon as I watched them 187 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 3: play basketball, to coach debriz Was, I was immediately I 188 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 3: was sure that this was going to be a good 189 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 3: basketball team. And they played so hard down there and 190 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: beat a really good Serbian team, and they beat him twice, 191 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 3: and they were behind in both ball games pretty significantly, 192 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 3: came back to win one going away, and the second 193 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 3: one they found a way to win it at the end. 194 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: I really didn't think i'd seen that. I don't want 195 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 3: to say that they didn't play like that early, because 196 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 3: they did play well at times early in the season, 197 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 3: but I hadn't seen the fight level that I saw 198 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 3: in these last three ball games. And all of a sudden, 199 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 3: they're playing like they did in Puerto Rico. And I 200 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 3: mentioned that to the coach, and I don't know that 201 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 3: he agreed with me necessarily, because they obviously when they 202 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 3: went down there, they didn't they hadn't practiced but about 203 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 3: a month and had ten practices leading up to you 204 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 3: know that trip, and so they I don't think they 205 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 3: even had a lot of formality in what they were 206 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: trying to do on the court most of the time. 207 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 3: But they still played hard and they played together, and 208 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 3: so that team chemistry that they built down there, I 209 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 3: saw it early in the season this year as far 210 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 3: as this basketball season is concerned, but I didn't see 211 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 3: it in that four game losing skid and all of 212 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 3: a sudden it's back. And if they can continue this, 213 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 3: I think they're going to have a really good rest 214 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 3: of the year and they're going to compete and they're 215 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 3: going to knock somebody off. To another team like Purdue 216 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: or someone like that, they're going to beat them because 217 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 3: they just play that hard. 218 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 4: And that well together. 219 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: By the way, I'm looking here, don the Brentwood Country 220 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: Club in Los Angeles two hundred thousand dollars initiation fee 221 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: and thirty thousand dollars annual fee. Now in addition to that, 222 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: there is a Brentwood Country Club in Brentwood, New York, 223 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: which you can play for forty one dollars around So 224 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: I'll be in the New York version. How's that? 225 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 3: Well, trust me and I'll tell people play Brentwood. I'm 226 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 3: not a golf knob in any way, shape or form. 227 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 3: I've played some of the grungiest golf courses you've ever 228 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 3: seen in your life. It doesn't matter to me what 229 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 3: the golf course presents. 230 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: I just love to play, you know, in all honesty, 231 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: when you get into like you know, the exclusivity. I 232 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: don't know if you've played like Pebble Beach and things 233 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: like that. This is a dumb question as a novice golfer, 234 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: but do courses like that become more challenging or is 235 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: it just kind of the serenity and the aesthetics of 236 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: when you get into those beautiful areas. 237 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 3: Does that make sense? Well, here's the thing. It all 238 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 3: depends on your game whether you're going to play. It 239 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 3: doesn't matter whether you play well or not. It does 240 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 3: because every golfer wants to play well, especially if he 241 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 3: goes to one of these really great golf courses. And 242 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: I've had the honest and good success or blessing to 243 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 3: be able to do that many times over a number 244 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 3: of really good golf courses in our country. But the 245 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 3: fact of the matter is golf to me as a 246 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 3: game that you're competing against yourself and the golf course, 247 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: and mostly against In my case, it's against myself because 248 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 3: I get hot headed and all that kind of stuff 249 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 3: because I'm not doing as well as I think I 250 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 3: should from the golf the pure golf perspective. I just 251 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: like to play, and I just and it doesn't matter 252 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 3: where I play or how I go about it. It's 253 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 3: just a matter of getting a chance the opportunity to 254 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: do so. I fell in love with this game when 255 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 3: I turned forty years old. I was doing you know, 256 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 3: all kinds of charity celebrity type stuff back in the day, 257 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 3: and we did all these tours with coach Mallory and 258 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 3: the football team and we just played scrambleed golf all 259 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 3: the time, and it ruined me for that. 260 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is that mean, because it's the constant pursuit, right, 261 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: It's the constant pursuit. 262 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 263 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. 264 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 3: And so anyway, I'm probably not answering your question what 265 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 3: you'd like me to answer, but I'm just telling you 266 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 3: what I feel about the game of golf. 267 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 4: It's just it's very it's a. 268 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 3: Very competitive thing at the same time and it still 269 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 3: gives you that opportunity to compete, which is at my age, 270 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 3: that's saying suthing. 271 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 4: Well. 272 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: The next opportunity for Indiana to compete will be tomorrow 273 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: night against USC.

Let's get to the pacers themselves. 333 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: I think this group they're starting to find some rhythm 334 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: with one another, because I think it took a while 335 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: to kind of figure out just different sets and different 336 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: lineups that you can go with. But Rick Carlisle seems 337 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: to have found something here. If you agree with that, 338 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: what player or players do you feel have elevated a 339 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: little bit here that allowed them to play well of recent. 340 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 6: Well I mean here of late, you know, in terms 341 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 6: you know guys that who has gotten expended opportunity did 342 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 6: that would not have otherwise that they had their full compliment. 343 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 6: I would say just Aris Walker. He is definitely elevated 344 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 6: in the last month and a half after really struggling 345 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 6: early in the season, probably by all accounts, but he's 346 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 6: put his game to another level. I mean, we're not 347 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 6: necessarily surprised by Pascal or Andrew Nemhart or Aaron Swith 348 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 6: and their productivity, but in terms of real productivity on 349 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 6: both ends of the floor, I would say Jars Walker. 350 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 6: I mean, I guess I go back to Andrew Nemhart 351 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,119 Speaker 6: and I'm not surprised by it, but he certainly demonstrated 352 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 6: his ability to be at his true position at the 353 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 6: point and be able to score it and assist it 354 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 6: and still be a great defender. 355 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: Do you see Jeris Walker And I'm going to get 356 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: back to Nemhart as well in the second here, Eddie, 357 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: but when you think of Jeris Walker and ideally what 358 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: you'd like to see for him long term, do you 359 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: see him as more a perimeter wing type guy or 360 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: as a hybrid that is, a low block guy that 361 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: then if necessary, can come out under the wing. 362 00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 4: I see him primarily on the wing. 363 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 6: I don't necessarily see him playing you know, many post 364 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 6: up opportunities, although he's taken advantage of smaller guy sometimes, 365 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 6: maybe not in the traditional sense of hey, we're gonna 366 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 6: call him step for you to go sit on the 367 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 6: box and run a play, but he's he's he's has 368 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 6: the strength and a big, strong body to take advantage 369 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 6: of smaller guards and in some cases the guys that 370 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 6: are his size. Yeah, I think he can do more 371 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 6: of that, and he'll continue to do more of that, 372 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,959 Speaker 6: but I don't I don't necessarily see him doing damage 373 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 6: on the box. I do see him as a guy 374 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 6: who could guard multiple positions, though he can in today's game, 375 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 6: he can probably guard one through four comfortably. 376 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: Johnny Furfey has obviously gotten a lot more rotation of late. 377 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: Is that out of necessity or is he starting to 378 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: show some things that are intriguing and where he can 379 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: be part of a solid rotation moving forward. 380 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 4: Well, I think. 381 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,120 Speaker 6: Throughout this entire season, I think it's been to some 382 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 6: degree of just trying to find it from Rick Carlisle standpoint, 383 00:17:58,600 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 6: and just. 384 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 4: I use the word experiment. 385 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 6: Cautiously and not in any sort of negative way, but 386 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 6: he's certainly been been trying to experiment with different rotations, 387 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 6: including Johnny Furfey and then obviously that center position. 388 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 4: But now you know, when you know, I. 389 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 6: Go back to the OKC game, when Jaris Walker went 390 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 6: to the lineup. I think Johnny Furkey had been starting 391 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 6: maybe one or two games. 392 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 4: Prior to that. 393 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 6: But you know, he's a guy who where he's really 394 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 6: thrived for me is his rebounding. I think the rest 395 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 6: of his game is still he is still under development, 396 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 6: but his rebounding and the work that he puts into 397 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 6: the game has really set himself apart and ultimately earned 398 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 6: himself more opportunity, more trust with the staff. But in 399 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 6: terms of long term being a rotational player, starting lineup 400 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 6: and all that, I think all that's to be determined. 401 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 6: But I do like what he's done from a rebounding standpoint. 402 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: That's the voice of Eddie Gill. 403 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 1: He's on the Java House peeling poor guest line Jake 404 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: twenty five the discount code for twenty five percent off 405 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: at Java house dot com. 406 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 2: The feeling poor pods, Eddie. Let's get back to Andrew 407 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 2: m Hard. 408 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: You know you had talked about his ability as a 409 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 1: point guard he his mid range game has always been 410 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: so good. But what areas do you feel he that 411 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: he has polished and or grown his game this year 412 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: versus last. 413 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 6: I think there's you know, just in fairness, we didn't 414 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 6: really get a chance to see, uh if if he 415 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 6: was capable of this. 416 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 4: From a point guard position. 417 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 6: I watched him in college, so I in my mind, 418 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 6: I always knew he was capable of it because he 419 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 6: was he was the true point guard and the guy 420 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 6: who makes plays. But now that he's got more responsibility 421 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 6: and expectation, you know, to make those plays, we're seeing it. 422 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 6: And I think that's the biggest area of growth externally, 423 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 6: is his ability. 424 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 4: To make plays for his teammates. 425 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 6: The last couple of seasons, you know, when when Tyreee 426 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 6: is out or or even when Tyres was there, he 427 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 6: had some big games from scoring it, but Tyree's being 428 00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 6: you know, the primary. 429 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 5: Ball handler, we didn't get a chance to see. 430 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 6: If Nim Martin could do it at this level. But 431 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 6: he's had several games where he's had very the next 432 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 6: double doubles and assist numbers have been high. Beyond that, 433 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 6: just the assist numbers, because guys obviously had to make 434 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 6: shots for assistant to happen. But he's putting guys in 435 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 6: position to where they can be effective and make plays 436 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 6: from a scoring perspective. 437 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: Eddie, you were obviously a point guard, Eddie Gill my guest, 438 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: and I would assume in college, you know, I know 439 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: you played with guys that played in the league in 440 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: college as well. But did you have moments or games 441 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: as the point guard where you had to take on 442 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: a dual role or even slide over into a shooting 443 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: guard or primary scoring situation. 444 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 4: There were a couple of times where that happened. 445 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 6: It was never like a key focus for me in 446 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 6: terms of scoring get you know, averaging whatever. 447 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: Sixteen seventeen points a game. 448 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 6: That kind of thing still still got to be a threat, 449 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 6: but now we're like, hey, we need you to go 450 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 6: get twenty twenty five thirty to night. 451 00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 4: For us to be successful. 452 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 6: There was a few times like one, uh, I want 453 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 6: to say it was a big Skuy tournament my junior year. 454 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 4: Our league scorer Aarseno. 455 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 6: Who went on in the tournament, and that's the tournament 456 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 6: to scorched Carolina in Florida. 457 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 4: But he was out. He got hurt in the very. 458 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 6: First game in the Big Sky Tournament, and my coach 459 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 6: literally came to me and said, hey, do you have 460 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 6: to just do you gonna have to do more scoring 461 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 6: than what you've you've grown up, you've been accustomed to 462 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 6: doing in the last you know, throughout this season. So 463 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 6: I went out there was more aggressive to score. So 464 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 6: there were there were times like that, a few a 465 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 6: handful of times, but mostly it was, you know, my 466 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 6: job to do. 467 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 4: A little bit of everything. 468 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: Is it more difficult for a natural scorer to learn 469 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: to facilitate or for a natural facilitator to get scoring 470 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: opportunity and feel comfortable. 471 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 4: With it absactly? 472 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 6: I would say, I mean, with all things being equals, 473 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 6: I was saying, a guy is is capable of going 474 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 6: to score, right, So if you're not, you're not. 475 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 4: That's just not who you are. 476 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 6: You know, you're a. 477 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 4: Guy who's just the highest this number. 478 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 6: Guy in you're averaging eight nine points. That's just what 479 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 6: it is. It's probably gonna be more difficult, difficult for 480 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 6: that guy. But I would say, all things being being equal, 481 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 6: it's harder for the natural scorer, a guy who can 482 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 6: really score it to go back and now, hey, I 483 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 6: gotta figure out ways to get other guys involved. I 484 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 6: got to be able to read the game. I gotta 485 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 6: know who has a hot hand. I need to know 486 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 6: what's set to call.

It is 544 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: one of those movies. We all have our handful of 545 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: these that you're flipping the channels on a rainy Sunday 546 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: when there's nothing on, and you happen to see that 547 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: it's one of the offerings you end up landing there, right. 548 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,239 Speaker 9: Yeah, And it's like a Few good Men, Yep, if 549 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 9: I can watch the last I don't know, thirty five 550 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 9: minutes of a Few good Men, I've watched Top Gun, 551 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 9: Maverick a bunch because it's on now. Yeah, and that's 552 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 9: pretty you know, I know I'm pretty shallow. But there's 553 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 9: like five or six of those, not the whole thing, well, 554 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 9: like if you can watch a forty year Old Virgin, 555 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 9: and you can, if you can get the waxing. 556 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: Part, yeah, for sure. 557 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 5: But it's great. 558 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 9: And again, since we're down this rabbit hole, the one 559 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 9: with the wedding crashers and Owen Wilson, Oh yeah, when 560 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 9: he's in the bedroom with lynn Lynne Seymour, what Jane 561 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 9: Seymour and she's doing what she's doing and he says 562 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 9: this fields borderline inappropriate. I'm thinking that's one of the 563 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 9: old time great lines in the movies, and you have 564 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 9: to watch the scene to understand why it's inappropriate. 565 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 1: Did you ever watch it, Owen Wilson? Did you ever 566 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: see the TV show on on? 567 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 4: Uh? 568 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: It's on Apple and I don't know when the next 569 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: season comes out. Stick with Owen Wilson. No, it's a 570 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: good show. It's uh. Owen Wilson is the same character 571 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: and everything he plays, but I find him likable personally. 572 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 4: I agree. 573 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: The Fugitive also on my list of must land movies. 574 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: All right, chap, let's get to this. You know a 575 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: lot has been said about of course, and I know 576 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: you've talked with John about it. I had you on 577 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: last week and we talked about the Hall of Fame 578 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: vote and the. 579 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 9: Day you were a day early. I wasn't ready to 580 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 9: do what I did, and then all the crap that 581 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 9: hit social media. I thought, yeah, this is BS, so 582 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 9: I decided to. 583 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, what was that? Well, I guess what was the 584 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: So did you know when I had asked you? 585 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: And I mean, I totally understand and respect it that 586 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: I don't want to come up the wrong way when 587 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 1: I asked you as probably is my job in the interview, 588 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,239 Speaker 1: hey did you vote for Belichick? And then you as 589 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: is also your job, and I think we have a 590 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: mutual understanding there. You know, you're like, hey, I know 591 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 1: you got to ask it, but I'm not going to 592 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: divulge at that time. Did you know then that you 593 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: were probably going to write a column divulging your vote? 594 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 5: No? 595 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 9: No, That's why I say I I I was honest 596 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,239 Speaker 9: with you that obviously I knew how I voted. I 597 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 9: wasn't going to put it out there. But then there 598 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 9: was so much junk out there on social media. Some 599 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 9: of them, some of them was from from fellow fellow 600 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 9: selectors where they said, well, I voted for him. I 601 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 9: voted for him, and then they took some of the 602 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 9: guys took a step further. I voted for him, and 603 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 9: it's embarrassment to the Hall of Fame that he's not in. Well, 604 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 9: then you're sort of calling in to account. You know, 605 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 9: you're dismissing my ability to vote the way I want to. 606 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 9: It's it would be the old but there's two ways 607 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 9: of doing things. My way in the wrong way. Well, 608 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 9: now wait a minute, you know it's that's that's not 609 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 9: the way it works. So no, at the time, I didn't, 610 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 9: but I just did. I just didn't like the way 611 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 9: the the tsunami was going because I was getting swept 612 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 9: up in it. 613 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 5: And I so I thought, what the hell? 614 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 9: And and I hope people who listen and and know 615 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 9: and that's not followed my career. 616 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 5: That's terrible, but. 617 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 9: It's seen the way I've handled things. I don't like 618 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 9: to being part of the story. 619 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 5: I just don't. 620 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 9: There are times you can't, you can't avoid it, but 621 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 9: in this case, I just couldn't. I just it was 622 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 9: was there was too much BS. 623 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 1: Going on for those that didn't see it or did 624 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,239 Speaker 1: not hear just and the brief synopsis the reason that 625 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: you elected not to vote for Bill Belichick in this 626 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: his first year of eligibility. 627 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 9: Well, when you boil it all down, it's Spygate, and 628 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 9: you have to understand that our charge for the Hall 629 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 9: of Fame when you consider people, it's on field, off field. 630 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 9: You can do a lot of stuff, not in a 631 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 9: Campagian ship, but on field matters, and Spygate impacted on 632 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 9: field Bill Belichick was he was fined to half a 633 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 9: million and the team was lost the first round draft pick. Well, 634 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 9: that's on field stuff. And I've always taken the approach 635 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 9: and this gets me into trouble, but I think if 636 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 9: you're a first ballot Hall of. 637 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 5: Famer, well you really need to be. 638 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 9: Kind of a clean a clean guy, a clean resume, 639 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 9: a clean bio. Peyton Manning and I thought anavententary last 640 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 9: year was a perfect example. 641 00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 5: You know what do you guys want? 642 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 4: Uh? 643 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 9: But Bellichi And I'm not dismissing however, many wins, the 644 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 9: second most in league history, and the eight Super Bowl 645 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 9: six with the Patriots, I'm not dismissing that. At all, 646 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 9: but don't just tell me you're a racing spygate at 647 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 9: least acknowledge that that he's got this stain on his resume. 648 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 9: And almost every argument I've heard hardly even brings that up. Uh, 649 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 9: So I do think when a guy has something like that, 650 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 9: and I didn't. I didn't really take the flate gate 651 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 9: into that because that, to me, that's a brady thing 652 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 9: and we'll we'll deal with that in a year or two. 653 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 9: So I just and again, I'll vote for Bill Belichick 654 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 9: next year. 655 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 4: I will. 656 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 5: I didn't vote for Terrell. 657 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 9: Owens his first year of eligibility. Remember, there's some stink 658 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 9: over that not to this level, and he's a top 659 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 9: five receiver of all time, there's no two ways about it. 660 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 9: But he was suspended two or three times his own team, 661 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 9: and I just think that that sort of keeps it 662 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 9: from being that first ballot guy because it does mean something. 663 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: So I'll put it to you this way, Chap, Is 664 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: this a fair statement? Whenever a player is being analyzed 665 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: to go into the Hall of Fame, if for the 666 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: sake of discussion, there is one person who is in 667 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: charge of listing all of the accolades, there is one 668 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: person who is in charge of listing potential demerits, and 669 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: it is your opinion that someone who is a first 670 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: ballot Hall of Famer one of the criteria would be 671 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: the person who is in charge of listing the demerits. 672 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: Has nothing to say. 673 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 9: Well, but it's not like that, because again, if you're presenting. 674 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: There, I know I'm saying hypothetically, I mean that, you 675 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: know what I mean. 676 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, But it comes up, and it comes up with 677 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 9: everybody that well, you know, this guy was suspended for 678 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 9: four games for PDS and this guy was all this, 679 00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 9: So no, I see that that's the slippery slope. I 680 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,959 Speaker 9: get one. I was looking at at our Hall of 681 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 9: Fame book that we get, the media guide that we 682 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 9: put out, and and I don't have the Bye Laws 683 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 9: in front of me, but one of the one of 684 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 9: the front pages mission out of the greatest of the 685 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 9: game preserved its history, promote its values, and then it's 686 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 9: got values commitment and integrity, courage, respect and honesty. Well 687 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 9: you know, Spikeys sort of goes against a couple of those. 688 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 5: Uh, So you know that. 689 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 9: That's why I say, and I'll catch holy hell for this, 690 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 9: and we'll have a zoom meeting in a couple of 691 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 9: weeks to go through this. I'm not I'm not the 692 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 9: only one. I'm convinced. I'm not the only one that 693 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 9: believes this. I'm to this point, I'm the only one 694 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 9: that's mentioned this. 695 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 5: Uh. But if you're okay, if you're okay. 696 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 9: With getting the biggest fine in NFL history for a 697 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 9: coach and losing a first round draft pick, then fine, 698 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 9: they didn't vote for him. I just I chose not to. 699 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 9: And and that's I can't point anything. And I'm not 700 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 9: going to say, well, you know, without Tom Brady, he 701 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 9: was trash. I'm not going to go there because his 702 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 9: body of work is just so overwhelming. But but there's 703 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 9: but there's a butt, you know. But and if you're 704 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 9: okay to not have a butt or to have it there, 705 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 9: and it doesn't matter if he's didn't, fine, but I it. 706 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 5: Did bother me. 707 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 9: Uh. And I did vote for Bob Kraft, which nobody 708 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 9: cares about, you know. And uh And and I get that. 709 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 9: But that's where we get into that, or where I 710 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 9: do a lot of us to do have a problem 711 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 9: with the process where we've got five candidates, three seniors 712 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 9: and a coach and a contributor and he can only 713 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 9: vote for three and they needed you know, one guy 714 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 9: gets in the top vote get he gets in, but 715 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 9: anyone else has to have eighty. And that's where it gets. 716 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 9: That's where you cannot get enough votes because people are 717 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 9: voting here there, and you value a senior over a 718 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 9: coach or an owner. And that's where we need to 719 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 9: address that, which maybe they do, maybe they don't. I 720 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 9: don't know. That's again, that's above my pay grade. I 721 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 9: tried to stay within the framework that we're given, so 722 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 9: and and and into What got me irritated is we're 723 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 9: not supposed to talk about what went on in the room. 724 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 9: It's it's it's for free flow of information and criticism 725 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:36,919 Speaker 9: and all that. And some anonymous selector told ESPN that, well, 726 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 9: there was the flight Gate and Bill Pullion was sort 727 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 9: of the driving force behind. Well, when you have that, 728 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 9: you need to wait one year. 729 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 5: That's wrong. It was Bill. 730 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 9: Pollyan didn't say that, So I guess if you're going 731 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 9: to be a source, at least get your facts straight. 732 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 4: Uh. 733 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 9: And and you know Bill and I have had issues 734 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 9: before we get along and find out. But the character 735 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 9: assassination he took on social media was over the top 736 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 9: and oh, by the way, wrong. 737 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 5: So that's and this isn't a well Indianapolis. 738 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,720 Speaker 9: They don't like the Patriots. I voted for Bob Kraft. 739 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 5: I stood up and. 740 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 9: Presented Adam Van Terry. It's not that, it's I couldn't 741 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 9: get past first ballot spygate. And again, if you if 742 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 9: you disagree, I understand, but I guess at least honor 743 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 9: my right to have that view. And well, I tell 744 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 9: you if you want to be entertained. You know when 745 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 9: I first posted the story for Fox fifty nine, going 746 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 9: going to read the timeline. Those comments are really pretty juicy. 747 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: Chap You also, Mike Chapels my guest. He's on the 748 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: Java house peeling poor guest. 749 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 4: Line. 750 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: You also, after your explanation, either right before or right after, 751 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: you reposted a statement that was released by the NFL 752 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: in regards to the Hall of Fame Class of twenty 753 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: twenty six, And basically what the statement said was that 754 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: with being a Hall of Fame voter comes the expectation 755 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: of adhering to certain things in which every voter is 756 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: aware there could be penalty for that. What do you 757 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: believe was the motivation of the NFL of releasing that statement. 758 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 9: That wasn't the NFL. That was the Hall of Fame. 759 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 9: The Hall of Fame, the Hall of Fame, and they 760 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,880 Speaker 9: are separate. Yeah, whether it was, I would think the 761 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 9: selector being the source and saying what he said or 762 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 9: she said. We've got female selectors as well. Because other 763 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 9: than that, I don't know what there could have been 764 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 9: to go against the bylaws. We have every right in 765 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 9: my mind to include spygate in that. One guy that 766 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 9: I know, the Kansas City guy, voted, he announced that 767 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 9: he did not vote for Belichick. 768 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 5: He voted for the three seniors. 769 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 9: And I understand that we you know, a lot of 770 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 9: people are don't want to see seniors get in and 771 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 9: a lot of us want to see seniors get in. 772 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 9: And but I really think it was the spreading information. 773 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 9: Where again, things that are said in that room, they're 774 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 9: they're confidential for a reason. If you're going to be 775 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 9: critical of this player, that player, you don't want it 776 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 9: to get back to that player that well, this guy 777 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 9: trist you you know you can't and and then it 778 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 9: just it keeps people from being honest. So I really 779 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 9: think that's what it is, because I don't know what 780 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 9: else it would have been in the voting process. You know, 781 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 9: you're not supposed to go with a lobby for people. 782 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 9: You're not supposed to say, you know, you vote for 783 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 9: my guy, I vote for your guy. 784 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:43,240 Speaker 4: Uh. 785 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 9: And you're not supposed to have any of these people 786 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 9: talk about these preconceived biases. Everybody's got biases, you know. 787 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 5: A lot a lot of the talk is, well. 788 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 9: Let's get to the meeting, let's gear to the meeting 789 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 9: the writers, let's get more players, more more current Hall 790 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 9: of famers. You think those guys aren't going to bring 791 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 9: by us into the room, Are you serious? I mean, 792 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 9: of course they are. I would just hope that you're 793 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:11,919 Speaker 9: able to weigh things the proper way and and somebody 794 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 9: will somebody on social media. Well, I just showed you 795 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 9: that people were upset the way Belichick treated the media. 796 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 9: Now this is the media's chance for payback. That's bs. 797 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 9: I've voted for guys who were complete. If that's the case, 798 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 9: Warren Sapp would never be in the Hall of Fame 799 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 9: because he was not nice to work with for the 800 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 9: Tampa Bay media, I'm telling you. So, that's all I 801 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 9: can think of. Is they really really frown on people 802 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 9: talking out outside school, so to speak. And if there's 803 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 9: something else, I don't know. But again, when we have 804 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 9: our meeting in a couple of weeks, just the sort 805 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 9: of air our grievances, and and that that will be 806 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 9: high on the list of topics. 807 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 5: And again the way it works. Again, we voted. 808 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 9: It's been three and a half weeks ago, and as 809 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 9: we left our zoom, I did not I know. I 810 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 9: knew who made the modern era from the cut from 811 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 9: ten to seven. 812 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 5: I knew that. 813 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 9: I knew who the seven guys were, so I knew 814 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 9: eight guys didn't make it. I just knew that, but 815 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 9: I didn't know who made it from there. I didn't 816 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 9: know who made it from the seniors and the coaches. 817 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 9: And a few a week later, whateverything in the Hall 818 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 9: of Fame contacts these people and said you made it, 819 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 9: you didn't make it. And then they asked those people 820 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 9: to keep it quiet because they want, you know, Thursday 821 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 9: night when it's announced to be a surprise. Well, either 822 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 9: Bill Belichick or someone close to Bill let it out 823 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 9: or got it out there on purpose whatever. I've heard 824 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 9: a few other names, but they really they really try 825 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 9: to keep that private, which is hard to do because 826 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 9: once it is the thing, it's the only thing that 827 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:54,720 Speaker 9: wants you to tell a secret, it's not a secret. 828 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:58,399 Speaker 1: Well, Chab to play Devil's advocate here. Okay, So if 829 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: you are to keep it confidential or private, and if 830 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: you were incredulous over the fact that someone did not 831 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: when it came to Belichick's vote, then why then come 832 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: out and say you didn't vote for him? 833 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 5: I don't know what you mean. 834 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: Well, in other words, could you not have just said, look, 835 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 1: that's confidential. I don't I'm not going to explain, and 836 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 1: and and in hindsight, is that what you technically what 837 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: they would have preferred you to do, or is that 838 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: never discussed that? 839 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 5: I don't know. 840 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 9: That's a that's a good question, and we'll had that 841 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 9: brought up because we're not I don't know that we're 842 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 9: prohibited from doing it unless they want you to wait 843 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,919 Speaker 9: until after the show on Thursday. But we had guys, 844 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 9: four or five guys come out and say, well, I 845 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 9: voted for him, because again, when the Hall of Fame 846 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 9: and the selection, we're catching holy hill over this, how 847 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 9: dare you not vote for him? 848 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 5: Well? 849 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 9: X number of guy said I voted for him, and 850 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 9: then before you know it, it's process elimination. If you 851 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,800 Speaker 9: get X number eight guys who said they voted for him, 852 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 9: then you know these guys did not vote for him. 853 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 9: And I've seen someone from the selectors they posted on 854 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 9: a column that only eleven people did not vote for Belichick. 855 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 9: If that's the case, it only takes eleven to keep 856 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,760 Speaker 9: you out. I find it hard to believe two things. 857 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 9: One that only eleven of us didn't and that this guy, 858 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 9: who I trust and he's really a good guy, that 859 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 9: he knows who the eleven are, because the only way 860 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 9: to do is the Hall of Fame is not going 861 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 9: to tell you, So the only way to pare it 862 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 9: down is to talk to all fifty people and do 863 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 9: an otally on it. So but we'll see, And even 864 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 9: after Thursday, I just don't think officially they're going to 865 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 9: come out and say, well, there were eleven, you know 866 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 9: the old Belichick. Eleven is what somebody put on social media. 867 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 9: But I tell you I would personally, I would like 868 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 9: to know who else in the room did not vote 869 00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 9: for him and and why, just because it's such a 870 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 9: flash point. But I don't have any any expectations that 871 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 9: will happen, and there's no there's no reason that the 872 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:11,879 Speaker 9: Hall of Fame will say with in this instance, we're 873 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 9: going to tell you. They're not going to tell us 874 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 9: who voted for who. So I'm curious at our meeting, 875 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 9: whatever it is, in the next month. But I and 876 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 9: I understand people don't like the system. There's parts of 877 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 9: it I don't like. But until you come up with 878 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 9: a better, better way of doing that what you want 879 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 9: you want to pick up fifty fans fifty players? Uh, 880 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 9: you want AI to do it? And goes strictly on stats. 881 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 5: I don't know. 882 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 9: I don't know what's better. I don't like the baseball 883 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 9: and they've got a morality, cause that's why you know 884 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 9: that the Pete Roses in, the Bonds and Maguires at all, 885 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 9: those right right aren't in and may never get in. 886 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: So, in other words, Robert Kraft's off field indiscretions are 887 00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: not applicable by rule of the voting because it does 888 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: not impact or effect on field performance. 889 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 9: And that's a tricky one too, because I went back 890 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 9: and double checked about that. He was charged and then 891 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 9: the chargers were dismissed. So does that mean nothing happened? Well, 892 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 9: I know something happened, but no, no, what But what 893 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 9: your point is, Yes, that should have nothing to do 894 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 9: with it because it's off the field. 895 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 5: Uh. 896 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 9: And we've got guys in the Hall of Fame. I'm 897 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 9: not going to mention names who've done things that that 898 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 9: maybe uh they they didn't impact on the field, but 899 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 9: they were whether it was alledged And again, Craft was 900 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 9: an alleged he was. He was charged with like two 901 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 9: counts of whatever it was. 902 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 5: He was caught. 903 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 9: He was caught in the sting if I'm not mistaken 904 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 9: on trafficking and wrong place, wrong time at some strip 905 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 9: mall in Jupiter, Florida. 906 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,760 Speaker 5: But he has because what's that strip? 907 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:57,360 Speaker 2: The keyword? 908 00:43:59,400 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 4: I know? 909 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 9: So so but that that that there were no there 910 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 9: were no charges, or that they were dismissed, that might 911 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,320 Speaker 9: be different, but no. Bottom line is that shouldn't matter 912 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:14,720 Speaker 9: because it did not impact It impacted the reputation certainly, 913 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 9: but it didn't have any carryover to the field, whereas 914 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:24,359 Speaker 9: spygate did, and and just and he could argue Tom 915 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 9: Brady did too with the flightgate because he was I 916 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 9: think the team was fined a million dollars and they 917 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 9: lost two draft picks. What was the first round ratick 918 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 9: and he was suspended for four games. So I think 919 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 9: when you're suspended you missed time, then that is on field, 920 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 9: and then then you have to decide what's your level 921 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,760 Speaker 9: of your what's your level of being okay with something? 922 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 9: If if you if you say Spygate didn't rise to 923 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 9: the level of keeping Bill Belichick out for one year. 924 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 9: Keep in mind, Doug on it, he's going to get 925 00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 9: in next year. His gold jacket will be just as 926 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 9: bright as everybody else is. Uh, he just won't be 927 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 9: a first ballot guy, Chap. 928 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 1: Do you believe Adam Vinitari and Reggie Wayne will get 929 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 1: in this year? 930 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I'm not gonna go with. 931 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 9: Uh, That's what I won't go with. I I I 932 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 9: know I know something you don't know. I I know, 933 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 9: and I'm not saying I just that's That's That's one 934 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 9: thing that I can't that I can't say because it's 935 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 9: not out and although I know what's gonna happen, I can't. 936 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:37,719 Speaker 9: I'll tell you we did this a couple of years ago. 937 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 9: I can blame twice. And if I blame twice, one's 938 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 9: in and the other is not. That I know but 939 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 9: I can't share. 940 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: In terms of Reggie Wayne, if he were to not 941 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: get in this year, he would have how many chances 942 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: before then he moves into the other column of the 943 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: senior like you have with el C. Greenwood and Roger 944 00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: Craig and Kenny Anderson. 945 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 9: You get twenty years after your twentieth year, you going 946 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 9: to senior prool. So he's been there, he's over for 947 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 9: six going into this year. This is his seventh year. 948 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 9: John Lynch was elected on his ninth time, so there 949 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 9: is you know, Reggie's not in first place on having 950 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 9: to wait. Edrick had to wait six or seven years. 951 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 9: But no, you get twenty years, and that's we've had 952 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 9: people get in the last several years. Well, you know 953 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 9: this is his last year. If he doesn't get in, 954 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 9: he goes into the senior pool. And that's mattered to 955 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 9: some people and it drives me crazy. Well, then why 956 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 9: didn't he get in for the first twenty years, for 957 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 9: the first nineteen years, But then then I vote for 958 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,839 Speaker 9: seniors because if they don't get in, if Roger Craig 959 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,959 Speaker 9: and Kenny Anderson and Elsie Agreement don't get in, they're 960 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 9: probably gone. 961 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:55,240 Speaker 1: So let me clarify this is this a fair statement 962 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: to make? Mike Chappell would know between Adam and Aitaire 963 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 1: and Reggie Wayne whether or not both one or none 964 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 1: of them made it into the final seven, but he 965 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,919 Speaker 1: would not know what the results of that final seven 966 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:16,720 Speaker 1: voting is. Yes, okay, but then. 967 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 4: I also know. 968 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 9: I also know past the seven who did or did 969 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 9: not get in regarding those. 970 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 1: Two gotcha okay? 971 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 5: Makes any sense? Again? 972 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 9: I know once we paired from ten to seven, I 973 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 9: knew who the seven were and if you didn't get 974 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 9: to the seven, you don't have a chance of getting 975 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 9: in this year, right. So, But but then I just 976 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:47,920 Speaker 9: from being around it and people I've talked to, I know, 977 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:51,839 Speaker 9: I know what you ask. I do know that. I 978 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 9: just I just if I share it, I would I 979 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 9: would lose my job. And as much as people want 980 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 9: me to lose that selector's job anyway, I'm not ready 981 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:01,359 Speaker 9: to do that yet. 982 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 1: There's a really good steakhouse in Mansfield that I enjoy. 983 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,359 Speaker 1: Should I make reservations for sometime in the early fall 984 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 1: or late summer. 985 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're not going to go there, you know. 986 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 9: So what it was today Monday, you'll know Thursday night. 987 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 1: And that's the last thing I was gassed is when 988 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 1: do we find out. 989 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 9: It's Thursday night at the honor show, which at another bitch, 990 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 9: this is like a two hour show where you do 991 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 9: the MVP and the Player of the Year and come 992 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 9: back player and oh, by the way, like in the 993 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,879 Speaker 9: second hour they dropped the Hall of Fame in there 994 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 9: for fifteen minutes, which is this is the Hall of 995 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:42,919 Speaker 9: Fame for crying out loud. Don't dump us after somebody's monologue, 996 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,000 Speaker 9: you know, an hour and a half into the end 997 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 9: of the thing. But that's another argument we try to have. 998 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 9: But it's Thursday night. I don't know what's the time 999 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:55,359 Speaker 9: as eight to ten or something locally, so that that's 1000 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,839 Speaker 9: when you'll know whether you should make make the drive 1001 00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 9: over to Campon or just not. 1002 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: Okay. Lastly, chap if, I had a tradition that I 1003 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,319 Speaker 1: like to enjoy a dish or a delicacy that is 1004 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 1: indigenous to the Super Bowl champion city. Every year I 1005 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 1: do this. The day after the Super Bowl. I plan 1006 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 1: for lunch or breakfast or dinner or whatever, I'm going 1007 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,359 Speaker 1: to have something to eat that is aligned with the 1008 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion from the night before. One week from 1009 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 1: today will I be enjoying clam chowder or. 1010 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 5: Coffee coffee, don't you thank? Don't you think? 1011 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: But doesn't it feel like every time we think there's 1012 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,440 Speaker 1: a slamming down to the other one wins. 1013 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:43,759 Speaker 9: Yes, yes, and the other thing is on your your 1014 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 9: your starbuck type of thing. Whenever we used to go 1015 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 9: to Seattle, which is an awful trip because it's so 1016 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 9: far away, we'd stay at SeaTac Airport and there was 1017 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 9: a place called the eleven Coins or nine Coins or 1018 00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:00,800 Speaker 9: something great place to eat. I would eat there, but no, 1019 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:04,319 Speaker 9: I just as much as I like clamshowder. And then 1020 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,400 Speaker 9: Drake May's apparently had some kind of a shoulder shoulder 1021 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 9: shoulder thing. Well, you know, he's a quarterback, so shoulder 1022 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 9: things are a big deal. I thought all year long 1023 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 9: that if the best team wasn't Seattle, it was the Rams, 1024 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 9: and I think we've shown that, and boy Colt should 1025 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 9: have beat him up, gone, Colt should have beat him 1026 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:32,440 Speaker 9: with Philip Rivers. But I just think, Seattle, I realize 1027 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 9: you've got Sam Darnald and he can turn into a 1028 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 9: pumpkin real soon, real quickly. That defense is pretty good, 1029 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 9: So I think this is a Seattle. 1030 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:41,359 Speaker 5: But You're right. 1031 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,959 Speaker 9: Every time you think it's that that that slam dunk, 1032 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,959 Speaker 9: it's not. But if I had to bet your money, 1033 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 9: I'd be betting on Seattle. 1034 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:48,319 Speaker 4: All right. 1035 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 1: Goes without saying, Eddie that if you need to get 1036 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,719 Speaker 1: your coffee on Monday.
