1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Today, it's just the company. There is no query. Now. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 2: I did not realize that Jake was such a Chicago 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 2: White Sox fan. I don't think he is, but he 4 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 2: seemingly has this tradition where he goes to a White 5 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 2: Sox Day game every year. In frankly, that is my 6 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 2: kind of tradition, you know, because it's kind of like 7 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 2: when Kevin Bowen and I and by the way, my 8 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 2: name is Greg Reikstra, Hello, how are you? And you 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 2: can hear there his activity in the background. I'll tell 10 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 2: you where we are. It's not far from where I live, frankly, 11 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 2: and it's a place that I know well, and I'll 12 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 2: get there in a second. But kids, one story at 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 2: a time, even if the voices in my head are 14 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 2: having a full blown conversation as we speak. You know, 15 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: anybody can go to see the two first place teams play. 16 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 2: I'm a much bigger fan of watching the last place 17 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: team play because, you know why, you get all kind 18 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 2: of room to spread out nice. 19 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: And comfortable viewing whatever you are doing. 20 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: So Jake, who literally lives within walking distance of the 21 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: Indiana State Fairgrounds where we are right now, instead of 22 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: being here at the grand stand with standard bread racing 23 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 2: taking place literally as we speak, he is head to 24 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: the south side. 25 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: To watch the Chicago White Sox. 26 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,919 Speaker 2: A little day baseball, I said, tell Colson Montgomery, I said, hello, 27 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 2: So you are stuck with me as your substitute teacher 28 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 2: between now and three o'clock. And there is something that 29 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: is something of a running joker, a little inside baseball 30 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 2: here when you have a fill in host, that is 31 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: it used to talking in fifteen and twenty minute story 32 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: arcs and sometimes by themselves on a regular basis the 33 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,119 Speaker 2: way that they used to be. What do you do 34 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: you load up the show with guests, which is exactly 35 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: what I am doing today now. Part of it is 36 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: because of the reason we are here, and I'll use 37 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: more baseball terminology, it is a doubleheader where I am 38 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: broadcasting from literally almost within reaching distance of touching out 39 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 2: and grabbing a horse here along the main straightaway would 40 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 2: be that we're here to tell you more about the 41 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 2: racing that takes place, not just at Hoosier Park, or 42 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: or not just I'm gonna call it by the old 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 2: name of Indiana Downs, so that's not been the name 44 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: of it for some time, but kind of the two 45 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 2: more permanent racing facilities here in Central Indiana. There frankly 46 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 2: is a third Ellis Park, but there's like some weird 47 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: line around Kentucky that's drawn down there, so I'm not 48 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: really sure what state that is in, but it's close 49 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: to Evansville. It's like just right down US forty one 50 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: from it. But no, there's like racing that takes place 51 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: all across the state, like a county fairs and events 52 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: like that. It was the case when I grew up 53 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: in Harrison County and having the fair down in Cordon. Well, 54 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: we're gonna take you about some of the things that 55 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: have led up to get to this point because literally 56 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: there is a full day of racing here. So you 57 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 2: hear the amount of races we bring to you, whether 58 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: it's from Ander Center, from down in Shelbyville, on your 59 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 2: regular basis here on the radio station. There literally happened 60 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 2: in front of us, not right now, but believe me, 61 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: you'll know when they're taking place because the guy announcing 62 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: them is like fifteen rows back of me, and the 63 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: horses are frankly closer. 64 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: So we'll tell you about that. 65 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: Tony Rnzho's the executive director of Nanna Standard Bread Association 66 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: will join us coming up a little bit later on 67 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: this hour. A couple of other guests will join us 68 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: throughout the course of the show, so I will be 69 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: kind of weaving that conversation in throughout the three hours 70 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 2: that I am with you. And then John is here 71 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 2: from three until six. And the good news is, you 72 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: know where I'm at in the permanent grandstand. We're currently 73 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: covered from a sun perspective. It is a mixture of 74 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: sun and clouds, and I can tell you it's not cool, 75 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: but it is just a little bit cooler today than 76 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: it has been for the last few days, and thank 77 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: goodness for that. By the time John gets here at three, 78 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 2: the sun will have shifted. And I'm pretty sure that 79 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: John will be a walking billboard for his weight loss. 80 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 2: And he will do his show from three until six. 81 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: Harry Carey in the bleacher style. Now he may have 82 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: a little less old style in him while he's doing 83 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: the show, but you may see John topless from three 84 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 2: until six o'clock and you can celebrate or commiserate that, 85 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: whichever way you want to go with it. The non 86 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 2: horse racing guests that we will have on the show 87 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: today is as follows, Coming up to the next segment 88 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 2: of the show. You know, once we get to late 89 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 2: July early August, and from that point in time forward, 90 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 2: you know, the Colts conversations tends to literally blot out 91 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 2: the sun. Once training camp starts, it's Colts, Colts, Colts, Colts. 92 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 2: And obviously, given what I do for the Indianapolis Colts 93 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: as preseason television, as postgame show hosts on the radio network, 94 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: I'm more than fine with that. But you know what, 95 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 2: if I wanted to talk Colts, frankly, I can just 96 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 2: talk Colts. We can talk Colts. The phone number is 97 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 2: open for you three one seven, three nine, ten seventy. 98 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 2: You could always tweet to me at Greg reichsdraw if 99 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: you'd like to interact in that fashion. And again, if 100 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 2: you know me, the bat phone is readily accessible to 101 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: text me and we'll figure out. We'll talk about it 102 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: on the radio and I'll get talking about the Colts 103 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: coming up in a matter of moments. But I thought, 104 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: from a guest standpoint, why don't we do something a 105 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: little bit different on the program today, And so next 106 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 2: segment of the show, we'll talk a little college football. 107 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 2: Now we will be doing so with the guy whose 108 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: name and voice you should recognize A because he's been 109 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 2: in the college sports sphere for the last twenty five 110 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 2: or so years. And B he's also quasi local, he's region, 111 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 2: he's Purdue. For the last fourteen years. Jerry Palm has 112 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: been a part of CBS Sports and especially as their 113 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 2: bubble analyst, their bracket analysts, their bracketologist, whatever you want 114 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 2: to describe it. As you would hear more of Jerry 115 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 2: talking college hoops, you would talk college football. I have 116 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: been in this seat long enough and done this long 117 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 2: enough where I remember Jerry from his website before he 118 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 2: then went to CBS, which was collegebcs dot com and 119 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: College RPI dot com. Well, now that Jerry is no 120 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 2: longer with CBS Sports, he is kind of back in 121 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: that space. So Jerry will join us talk a little 122 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: college football. Coming up during the twelve thirty segment of 123 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 2: the show. I think an Tony Rensrom the Standard Bread 124 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: Association will join us at twelve forty five during the 125 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 2: one o'clock hour of the program. 126 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: In fact, at one. 127 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: Thirty, a man whose voice, frankly, I'm not sure needs 128 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: any more introduction this time of year here because you 129 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 2: hear him a ninety three to five and one seven 130 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: to five of the fan on a well every other 131 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: every third night kind of basis. That would be John 132 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: Nowell in the radio voice of the Indiana Fever and 133 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: the Fever. Let's face it, we need to kind of 134 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: grade them on a curve right now. I mean, they 135 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 2: had just seemingly figured out here's how you play with that, 136 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark. Then you lose two point guards on the 137 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: same night for the remainder of the season. The fact 138 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 2: that you have had multiple players have to come in 139 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 2: and get significant minutes while basically playing on a seven 140 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: day deal or a hardship medical deal, it's frankly stunning. 141 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: The fever above five hundred at this point and in 142 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: a playoff position. So John Noman will join us coming 143 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: up at one thirty. Another guest from the Indiana Standard 144 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: Bard Association and the activities here at the Track will 145 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: join us in the one o'clock hour as well, So 146 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: it will be the case in the two o'clock hour. 147 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: And I know this is a story that Jake touched 148 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: on for his Feel Good Friday last week, and it's 149 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: a story I'm connected to as well. 150 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: This is the time of year. 151 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: Well, if you just kind of randomly turn on your television, 152 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: you'll see Little League Baseball players or Little League Softball players. 153 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: For example, if you were flipping. 154 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: Around and saw ABC on some afternoon, you saw kids 155 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 2: from southern Indiana playing in the Little League Softball World 156 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: Series Championships. Kids from Floyd'sknobs, literally the town east of 157 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: where I grew up, the town that I lived in 158 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 2: when I was born, Floyd's Knobs, Indiana, home of the 159 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: Floyd Central Highlanders. Well, they finished as the runners up 160 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 2: in that competition. But there's other teams that are competing 161 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 2: in various competitions of youth baseball. And another one from 162 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 2: right here in our own backyard also finished as the 163 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 2: runners up. And that is the kids from the Indie 164 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: RBI program. And what RBI stands for is reviving baseball 165 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: in the inner cities. This is a program that Major 166 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: League Baseball has run for many years. The Indianapolis RBI 167 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 2: chapter is the largest operating group outside of a Major 168 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: League Baseball market in the country. I was fortunate enough 169 00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 2: many years ago to be on the board that is 170 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: no longer the case. Believe it or not, I do 171 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: eventually say no to some things clearly, not filling in 172 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: gigs on one oh seven to five to fan or 173 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: like no to meals. But occasionally I will say no 174 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 2: to hey, I've spent my time on the board. I 175 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 2: think I have to be done here. But Bob Haney 176 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: has run that program at least at a kind of 177 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 2: a senior level and has coached their U eighteen team. 178 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 2: Bob is also the baseball coach at Tech High School. 179 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 2: Those kids from Indianapolis finished as the runners up in 180 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 2: the RBI World Series. It was the first time in 181 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 2: years they had qualified for the World Series because they 182 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 2: compete with teams from I think Detroit, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Chicago, 183 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 2: Kansas City, and Saint Louis. I think that's kind of 184 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 2: the group in which the end the RBI kids play. 185 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 2: It was their best finish in forever, and so Bob 186 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: will join us during the two o'clock hour of the show. 187 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: There may be one or two others that I would 188 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 2: call the unscheduled somewhat celebrity pop in that take place 189 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 2: during the course of the program. So there may be 190 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 2: other guests as well. Believe me, there is time for you. 191 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 2: Three one, seven, two, three, nine, ten, seventy at Greg 192 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: Reichstraw on Twitter is how you can interact with me. 193 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 2: I do want to welcome Eddie Garrison. Normally there is 194 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: direct line of sight between conversations between host and Eddie. 195 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: That is not the case today. 196 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 2: But thankfully Eddie knows my speech patterns frankly all too well. 197 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: At this point, GARRISONIO, good afternoon. How are you, sir? 198 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 3: I'm doing well. How are you, sir? 199 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: I'm good. How is I know the end result of it? 200 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 2: I know that back and forth of it, and we'll 201 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 2: talk more about it at about one point thirty. 202 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: How was the Fever game last night? 203 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 3: Disappointing? 204 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 4: I said this last night when I was doing the 205 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 4: postgame shows, like these are games that the Fever just 206 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 4: simply cannot lose. Like you're getting down to the final 207 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 4: month of the season, You've got a dozen or so 208 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 4: games remaining on your schedule, and you've got to play 209 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 4: Minnesota three times in those final twelve games, and those 210 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 4: are games that you're probably not going to win, just 211 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 4: because they're the best team of the W Right now, 212 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 4: in that first game on the twenty second between the 213 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 4: two teams could ideally be the timeframe when Kaitlyn Clark 214 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: comes back. So there's going to be an adjustment period. 215 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 4: So you have to take advantage of teams like Dallas 216 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 4: when they're on their schedule when the standings are so 217 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 4: tight right now in the WNBA. And not to mention, 218 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 4: they were with Auto Rico Ogunbowally their second best player 219 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 4: last night and Page Becker goes six for twenty. And 220 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 4: if you're going into the game and you say, hey, 221 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 4: you don't have your second best scorer and your best 222 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 4: player for the opposing team struggles with efficiency of making shots, 223 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 4: how do you feel like, oh, well, they're certainly going 224 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 4: to win. 225 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 3: And last night just was not the case. 226 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 4: They just did not come out prepared there, came out 227 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 4: flat and the first quarter, got it back on track 228 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 4: in the second and then kind of had a repeat 229 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 4: of the first quarter to start the third quarter as well. 230 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 4: So that a good night last night for the Indiana Fever. 231 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: The point guard of the Indiana Fever right now is 232 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: who Right now? 233 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 4: It's Kelsey Mitchell in terms of the starters. And then 234 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 4: they brought in Odyssely Sam's on a hardship deal and 235 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 4: she was coming off the bench last night, played fourteen 236 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 4: minutes and kind of struggled just because there's not there 237 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 4: was year old practice time pretty much for her with 238 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 4: the group, so she was kind of confused out there. 239 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 4: There are a couple of turnovers because of it, and 240 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 4: I don't know when Kaitlyn comes back, but right now 241 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 4: it's Kelsey Mitchell and Odyssey Simms. 242 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: So again, you just helped me made my point. 243 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: Aren't we judging everything from an Indiana Fever perspective? 244 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: Can you tell there's a race going on behind me 245 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: right now? Not at all? Aren't we right? Aren't we 246 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: judging everything on a curve? 247 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 2: In other words, like if I look back at the 248 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 2: end of the twenty twenty five seas whatever it may be. 249 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 2: And again, for those that don't follow it, Fever are 250 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 2: two and a half games up of a playoff spot 251 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: with eleven games left to go. And I'm sure Eddie's 252 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 2: got the exact math on this, but more or less, 253 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark has played basically one third of the game 254 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 2: so far this year. 255 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: Am I in that proper neighborhood? From a Numborne standpoint 256 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: is she's. 257 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 3: Played thirteen games and they've played twenty without her. 258 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 2: There you go, so a little bit just slightly above that, 259 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 2: but you get the general idea and so what you 260 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: have said about well, they brought in this point, the 261 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: point garding on a hardship contract, she basically have a 262 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 2: chance to practice with the team, and she is playing 263 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 2: with the team significant minutes. In other words, I don't 264 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 2: think there is much that we can judge this group 265 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 2: on in terms of, you know, what carries over to 266 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, because it's just been kind of one 267 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 2: of those years that you get what you get from 268 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 2: an injury standpoint. 269 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: Fair to say, it is fair to say. 270 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 4: And also when you look at the team right now, 271 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 4: there's not a whole lot of players that are currently 272 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 4: under contract for next year, like Sophie Cunningham, Kelsey Mitchell, 273 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 4: they're on one year deals. The only players that you 274 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 4: for sure have back right now are Caitlyn Clark and 275 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 4: Eliah Boston. Those are the only two players that are 276 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 4: pretty much signed for the remainder of this season and 277 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 4: into next year. Just because of the new CBA that's coming, 278 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 4: a lot of players signed one year deals and so 279 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 4: it's going to be a totally new roster probably next 280 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 4: season for the Fever, I would anticipate Sophie Cunningham coming back, 281 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 4: just because of how much she has outwardly spoken about 282 00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 4: playing for the Indiana Fever and playing with Kitlyn Clark 283 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 4: and Stephanie White. 284 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: So it could be a totally different roster next year. 285 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 4: So that's kind of why I value these games still, 286 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 4: even though you may view it as a curve without Caitlyn. 287 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 4: I think with the fact that they've played more games 288 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 4: without Kitlyn than they have with her, I think that 289 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 4: a bit of weighted into it too. 290 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: All Right, anything official, and I won't even say official, 291 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 2: anything that is educated inside information from a And again, 292 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: you're not official with the team, but you're you're listing 293 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: to every game, you're connected to people, you know people 294 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 2: almost almost I think out of like some sense of. 295 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: Hope and run. 296 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 2: Well, she missed two weeks this time, three weeks this time, 297 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 2: so she'll miss this many weeks this time. Any sort 298 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 2: of inside intel has to win. In theory, we might 299 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 2: see her back on the court again. 300 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 4: They've been incredibly vague about it, but with what I 301 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 4: can piece together from how they've been treating it, and 302 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 4: they're starting to ramp up or conditioning a little bit 303 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 4: off the court, I'm I'm identifying that Friday, August twenty 304 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 4: second game, so a week from Friday as the game 305 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 4: that she's going to return, because Stephanie White said on 306 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 4: this program, I think it was last week or if 307 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 4: not two weeks ago that that needed to see practices 308 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 4: and beating multiple from Clark with the team, and just 309 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 4: based off of the schedule at the time when the 310 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 4: calendar turned to August, there was a two and a 311 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 4: half week stretch where they were playing, you know, every 312 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 4: other day, and there were a couple of stretches where 313 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 4: they had two days between games, but they play a 314 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 4: Sunday against Connecticut on the road, and then they're off 315 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 4: until that Friday, the twenty second. So I would envision 316 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 4: that four day break or whatever you want to call 317 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 4: it right there is when they're going to get Kaitlyn 318 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 4: back on the floor to string together some practices and 319 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 4: hopefully get her back on the floor in terms of 320 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 4: game action on Friday the twenty second. 321 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 2: Final thing I'll bring up in John Nolan and I 322 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 2: will have a similar conversation about an hour and a 323 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: half or so from now. The thing that to me, 324 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: I'm not sure want to say a pleasant surprise that 325 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 2: sounds like a backhanded compliment. That's not what I'm insinuating. 326 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: The thing that through the injury issues which Caitlyn Clark 327 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: had not been through at Iowa or obviously in her 328 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: first year in the WNBA, there has not been this 329 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 2: dramatic drop off in terms of butts and seashore interest 330 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: in the team. 331 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: Has there? 332 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 3: No, not, really not at all. 333 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 4: And yeah, large part because there's still a lot of 334 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 4: talented players on the Indian A Fever, and there's a 335 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 4: lot of talented players across the WNBA, and that all 336 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 4: those fans that did purchase tickets prior to the season 337 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 4: when they were trying to get those tickets to see 338 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 4: Kittler Clark are still showing up because it is the 339 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 4: Indiana Fever. 340 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 2: You chime in whenever you feel appropriate, sir, Thank you 341 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 2: very much.

And 346 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 2: we are right on the front straight away and there'll 347 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 2: be live horse racing action taking place throughout the course 348 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: of the show. Three, one, seven, two, three, nine, ten 349 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 2: seventy is the telephone number. From a cult's perspective, we're 350 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 2: kind of in just a brief blow. Nine days in 351 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 2: between Game one and Game two of preseason football, the 352 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 2: rare back to back days off from a practice standpoint, 353 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 2: yesterday was a true day off. Those guys went at 354 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 2: it hard and that was kind of by design from 355 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: Shadenstrom Saint Steichen, and obviously the weather conditions played into 356 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 2: that too. I can tell you from being out there 357 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 2: three days running it was an absolute swamp that they 358 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 2: practiced in at four o'clock Saturday, Sunday and Monday of 359 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 2: this week. And so today is a day full of 360 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 2: meetings for the players. They're back at Westfield for a 361 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 2: couple of more days. One day of joint practice tomorrow 362 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 2: against the Packers from three until five. 363 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: That will be a mad house. That will be a 364 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: full outs. That is a sold outthouse. 365 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 2: So if you do not have tickets for that practice 366 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 2: session tomorrow, I'm not sure you can scalp practice tickets 367 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: if that's allowed legal or frowned upon. Really don't know, 368 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 2: but you know I have a ticket. Find somebody that does. 369 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: If you really want to go and watch the Colts 370 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: and Packers practice tomorrow. In case this hasn't gotten you, 371 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 2: because so much of my focus as a broadcaster, I 372 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 2: think that carries over to fans focus. You know, in 373 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: the preseason you're focused about your team. And yes, the 374 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 2: Colt starters are supposed to play. I'm sure there will 375 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 2: be a couple of exceptions, but the Colt starters are 376 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: scheduled to play for a quarter on Saturday, but it 377 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: will not truly be one versus one in terms of 378 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 2: Packers offense versus Colts defense. McKay's case you hadn't heard, 379 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: Jordan Love is out for the rest of the preseason. 380 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 2: Jordan had a procedure on his non throwing thumb. His 381 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 2: left thumb yesterday got hurt playing in Game number one. 382 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: Again. 383 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 2: They think he's back for the regular season opener, but 384 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 2: you will not see Jordan Love playing on Saturday when 385 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 2: the Packers are here for a one o'clock kickoff. That doesn't, 386 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 2: frankly change I think how the Cults need to approach 387 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 2: this game in terms of getting guys reps. But it 388 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 2: does maybe change what you would say this Colts defense. 389 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say how you judge him but I'm sure 390 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 2: there are some of you screaming at your radio dial 391 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 2: right now saying, wait a minute. The Packers with the 392 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 2: other guys, the backup quarterback with maliek Willis kind of 393 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 2: torched the Colts last year week number two. And you 394 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 2: would be right about that. Even if the Colts knew 395 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 2: what was coming, they seemed like they could not be 396 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 2: able to stop it. But just a note to consider 397 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,360 Speaker 2: as far as as the game coming up on Saturday, 398 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,479 Speaker 2: if you look, if you're asking or curious or whatever. 399 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: Kind of my overarching thoughts on Colts training camp so far, 400 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 2: here would be two or three observations that I would 401 00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 2: share with you. One there is it's not been great 402 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 2: separation at the quarterback position in terms of one guy 403 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 2: looking better than the other, and I do think that 404 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 2: tips the hand towards Anthony Richardson. I do think that 405 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: that battle will continue all the way through the Cincinnati game. 406 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: Now. 407 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what Shane's playing plans are for the 408 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 2: guy's next Saturday. He hasn't kind of revealed that just yet. 409 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: But I do think that the competition will continue behind 410 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 2: closed doors, because remember the last practice that has not 411 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 2: just opened to you as the public, but to us 412 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 2: that covered the team is tomorrow afternoon. 413 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: That's it. 414 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 2: Everything else goes back to fifty sixth Street as of 415 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 2: next week and is behind closed doors. We'll see guys 416 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 2: like Stratch go through individual drills and we'll be asked 417 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: to leave, and that's it. In other words, I don't 418 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 2: expect they started to be named next week. I think 419 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 2: it's still a very much a legitimate competition. But if 420 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 2: it's going to be a tie, I've always felt that 421 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 2: was going to go to the incumbent, which would be 422 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson. And I've probably switched my mind like twice 423 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 2: on that over the course of not just the last 424 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,959 Speaker 2: two or three weeks, but the off season workouts, then 425 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: from the start of training camp, and even though Jones 426 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 2: gets the start and Richardson gets the next quarter and 427 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 2: a half, whatever, if you ask me, in my heart 428 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 2: ofheart too, I think the starting quarterback is on September 429 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 2: the seventh for this football team. My answer today, which 430 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 2: is always have to change, my answer would be Anthony 431 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 2: Richardson is going to be the starting quarterback of the 432 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts on September the seventh. Talk about that, feel 433 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 2: free at Greg Regstraw on Twitter probably is the best 434 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 2: way to interact with me over the course of the 435 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: next couple of segments of the show. The other thing 436 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 2: that I will say is this, and I forget whom 437 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: I was probably filling in for John at some point 438 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 2: in time in July. And this is like a month 439 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: ago before I left for a whole different country for 440 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 2: a week, which was glorious, by the way, when I 441 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 2: basically said, you know what, folks, I really have two questions, 442 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 2: and a month later I have the same two questions. 443 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 2: Are you gonna be a playoff team? Who's your starting quarterback? 444 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 2: And because of that, there is largely a lack of 445 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 2: questions at other position battles. In other words, I think 446 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: I know the three running backs the Colts are going 447 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 2: to keep on their roster. I think I know the 448 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 2: six wide receivers the Colts are going to keep on 449 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: their roster. I think I got an idea as to 450 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,719 Speaker 2: the four tight ends the Colts are going to keep 451 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 2: on their roster. 452 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: There's not much in the way of position battles going on. 453 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 2: You have the obvious one at quarterback, and then you 454 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 2: kind of have one going on at cornerback. Because of injuries, 455 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 2: because Justin Wally had won the job and now he's 456 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 2: gone for the season. 457 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: And if Kenny Moore is your slot. 458 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 2: Guy and he's dealing with a knee injury, you know 459 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 2: you're gonna put Mooney Ward in a glass clay case 460 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: at this point to make sure he's all right. Nick 461 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 2: Cross a little bit, you know, dinged up. We don't 462 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: know what the carryover is going to be on that front. 463 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 2: You know, there's a guy that was not really gonna 464 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 2: be part of the conversation that suddenly is getting reps 465 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 2: of the one. His name is Jonathan Edwards. It's an 466 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 2: undrafted free AGENTF two. I think he had twenty four 467 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,479 Speaker 2: tackles last year. That's the guy wearing thirty five that's 468 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 2: getting reps of the ones. So that is kind of 469 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 2: a position battle almost because of injury. Other than that, 470 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 2: I know the starting defensive tackles. I know defensive end 471 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 2: is going to be a rotation. I know Zaire Franklin 472 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 2: is back at practice full Boar appears to be good 473 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 2: to go. You know, in the offseason, we get kind 474 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 2: of penciled in Jaden or Jalen Carlis as the other 475 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 2: linebacker and he's been hurt, and it looks like it's 476 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 2: you know, Joe Bachi who had the interception on Thursday night, 477 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 2: and while he was a special teamer for lou An 478 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 2: Arumo in Cincinnati, knows the defense, knows the system, and 479 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: right now I think the other starting linebacker opposite Zaire 480 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 2: Franklin is a battle between he and the local product 481 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 2: in Cam mcgron. I would probably lean more towards Joe 482 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 2: at this point in time. Even the kicking battle, it's 483 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: not much of a battle. It's going to be Spencer 484 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 2: Schrader's job. It certainly seems that way going forward. So 485 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 2: it's unique in that we have the biggest and most 486 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 2: ultimate question about this football team who the quarterback is 487 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 2: going to be, and that tends to again supersede everything 488 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 2: in everybody. But in terms of other battles, I'm not 489 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 2: sure how much of one there is going to be. 490 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 2: The other thing that I will give you from my 491 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 2: time of observing Colts practice over the last two three weeks. 492 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 2: At this point, especially if the injuries, especially if the 493 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 2: injuries at cornerback can be resolved defensively, I think we 494 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 2: might be all right because either one of these two 495 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 2: things is happening because the defensive line is getting pressure 496 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 2: in the backfield a good amount of time. Either there's 497 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 2: finally enough depth at the defensive end position to go 498 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 2: with Stuart and Buckner here, I think are as go 499 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 2: to a defensive tackle pairing as you have in the 500 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 2: league and those guys are getting to the quarterback on 501 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 2: a regular basis. Or there's a little more problem with 502 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 2: the Colts offensive line in terms of pass rush, and frankly, 503 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 2: we learn more about that in scenarios like last week 504 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 2: against Baltimore on Tuesday, where the Colts did well, and 505 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 2: now let's see what happens tomorrow in that open practice 506 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 2: against the Packers. If the Colts defensive line gets pressure 507 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 2: in that setting the way they have been doing on 508 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: a semi regular basis at camp, you know, it's kind 509 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 2: of like the groundskeeper seen in Major League. I mean, 510 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 2: the Colts defensive line isn't too you know, maybe they're okay. 511 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 2: So those are some of the things that have been 512 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 2: weighing on my mind.

Right now, it's just football, 577 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 5: which I launched yesterday because obviously the football season starts 578 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 5: next week, so there's a little less urgency for basketball. 579 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 5: But I'm working on that too and hope to have 580 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 5: that up in a couple of weeks and we'll be 581 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 5: able to do both football and basketball. And like you said, 582 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 5: it's it's kind of the way it used to be 583 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 5: for me. 584 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: It's how I got. 585 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 5: Started started, you know, on my own back in Gosh, 586 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 5: nineteen ninety four, when it was just basketball and and 587 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 5: the only people doing it was me and Joel and 588 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 5: already in fact, we started at the same time I 589 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 5: found out about each of ours. I think he started 590 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 5: at ESPN in ninety four. In my first bracket was 591 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 5: also ninety four. So but yeah, it's it's a lot 592 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 5: different now, a lot of different landscape now. But I'm 593 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 5: looking forward to being able to do things that you know, 594 00:29:55,840 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 5: I wasn't always able to do with you know, editors 595 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 5: telling me what I shouldn't should not do. 596 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 2: Well, let's face it, there's there's a couple of pressing 597 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 2: things from basketball stay I want to get to and 598 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,719 Speaker 2: then we'll talk about the more kind of current relevant 599 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 2: stuff in terms of the upcoming football season. And first 600 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 2: of all, just a person, because I've known you for 601 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 2: twenty five years and so it was so cool for 602 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 2: me to see a buddy of mine on one of 603 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 2: the most prominent television shows that sports fans think of. 604 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 2: And that being obviously all of the lead up to 605 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: the debuting of the brackets in March, What was it 606 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: like for being a guy that started his own blog 607 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: and research to being a regular on March Madness coverage 608 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: on CBS. That had to be so stinking cool for 609 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: as long as that got to be a part of 610 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 2: your career. 611 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, at the beginning, it was surreal, you know, I 612 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 5: just it's something I when I started doing this, I 613 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 5: thought the number of people who would be interested would 614 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 5: fit comfortably. 615 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: In immediate day. 616 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 5: So you know, it was a little more than that. 617 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 5: In fact, it was a lot more than that, you know, 618 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 5: being part of the Selection week shows in particular, and 619 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 5: when they started doing them, the pre selection show in 620 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 5: February was always really the highlights of the year. Being 621 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 5: out in New York with the CBS Sports people and 622 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 5: you know that that was always the highlight of the year. 623 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 5: And the February show I would get to, you know, 624 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 5: meet with some of the committee people and so I 625 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 5: would get to pick their brains about stuff. So that's 626 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 5: that's something that I'll miss, but it's you know, it 627 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 5: was a surreal experience for me to be part of 628 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 5: the network that is the home of college basketball for 629 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 5: for that long. 630 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 2: I remember I got to do a broadcast on CBS 631 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 2: Sports Network about nine years ago, and I got a 632 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 2: CBS Sports Network Polo and I got to I got 633 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 2: to I didn't keep the mic flag, but took a 634 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 2: picture of the mic flag, and I'm like, hey, at 635 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: some point there gonna give me a blazer. 636 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 5: Uh. 637 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: And you got to work with the guys at the Blazers, 638 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: which again is beyond. 639 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 5: I didn't get a blazer, but but I had to 640 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 5: work with the guys. 641 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: But you were in close vicinity to them, which which 642 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 1: is better than that I was able to do. I say, 643 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: working for with those people. 644 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 5: Yes, you know guys like Clark Kellogg and you know 645 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 5: Jay Wright in recent years, and and you know Greg 646 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 5: gumble Uh those uh really a lot of very smart 647 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 5: analysts type people on both the CBS and the Sports Network. 648 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 2: No doubt about that. And God rest Greg gumblesoul. Now 649 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 2: with that, uh, we're not expanding this year. It gets 650 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 2: talked about all the time as a guy that literally 651 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 2: does this for a living. Your thoughts about us stay 652 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 2: in patt at sixty eight for at least one more year. 653 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 5: Well, I say that that minimizes minimizes the damage for 654 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 5: another year. I insteadfastly in favor of going back to 655 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 5: sixty four. That was the perfect number. But yeah, I'd 656 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 5: feel better about it if they were, you know, expanding 657 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 5: the tournament for like Dayton, you know, uh uh, Loyal 658 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 5: of Chicago, you know, teams like that. I just picked 659 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 5: a couple of eight ten teams, but you know, teams 660 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 5: like that, then I then I would feel better about it. 661 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 5: But I don't believe that for a minute. I think 662 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 5: we're gonna get you know, big big conference teams that 663 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 5: are so two games above goal five hundred in their 664 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 5: league and you know, just barely above five hundred overall. 665 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 5: And those are the kinds of teams that we're probably 666 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 5: gonna see those spots. And the thing is that nobody 667 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 5: really into these games. I mean, I don't know what 668 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 5: the TV ratings say. I don't say that much attention 669 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,719 Speaker 5: to it for the first four. But you know, if 670 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 5: you're filling out a bracket, you're you're waiting for those 671 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 5: games to end. So you know what your bracket looks 672 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 5: like that you have to fill out. 673 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 2: Again, Jerry Palm Palm brackets. Just simply search that you'll 674 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 2: be able to find Jerry's great work. So let's kind 675 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 2: of shift to what starts all of you know, eight 676 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 2: days from now, and obviously starts in the biggest of 677 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 2: ways A week from the Saturday that is college football. Obviously, 678 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 2: now it is a race to twelve in terms of 679 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 2: making the postseason. Kind of what all will you be 680 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,760 Speaker 2: chronicling and looking for in the early weeks of the season. 681 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, there are some big games, including right off 682 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 5: the bat, Texas number one in the preseason polls, number 683 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 5: seven seed in my bowl projections for the college football playoffs. 684 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 5: But part of the reason for that is they're opening 685 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 5: the season at Ohio State. Later in the season they 686 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 5: have to go to Georgia, and it's nice to be 687 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 5: the pre season number one. You know, people think you're 688 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 5: the best team in the country. They might very well be, 689 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 5: and you could still lose at Ohio State and lose 690 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 5: the Georgia and finish ten and two. 691 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: That's probably good enough to get you. 692 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 5: In the playoff, you know, if that's what they do, 693 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 5: and obviously better than that would be impressive. But those 694 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 5: are really tough games. They're already an underdog at Ohio 695 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 5: State and the Georgia games in November, so it's a 696 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 5: little premature for a line on that, but it's yeah. 697 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be. 698 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 5: There's some really good non conference games, you know, every year, 699 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:24,280 Speaker 5: there are. And it's funny because the Indiana coach Signetti, 700 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 5: who's kind of ripping the SEC for how they schedule, 701 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 5: and there are certainly some weird things about how they schedule, 702 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 5: but the better teams in that league usually have one 703 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 5: pretty good non conference game and he's pretty much committed 704 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 5: to not ever having won, so which is you know, 705 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 5: last year, I think it hurt them, but you can't 706 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 5: really blame them for a bad non conference schedule when 707 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 5: you're you're rebuilding a program and they had a tremendous 708 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 5: turnaround probably never been equals turnaround last year, and now 709 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 5: they'll get a few more tough games in the in 710 00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 5: the conference this year, so. 711 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: We'll see how they do. 712 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:06,280 Speaker 5: But yeah, it's there are some really good non conference 713 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 5: games this year, and yeah, Texas is playing one of 714 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 5: those right away in Week one. 715 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 2: We've never had number one versus two out of the 716 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 2: shoot and that is exactly what we have this year. Again, 717 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 2: Palm brackets and Jerry and I will have this conversation 718 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 2: during the college football season with the college basketball season 719 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 2: when you hear me, good chance we'll have Jerry on 720 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 2: the show on a semi regular basis. Luck with the 721 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 2: new venture. My friend will cross pass soon. All right, 722 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 2: thank you, you got it. Jerry Palm joining us on 723 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,399 Speaker 2: the insert your business name here.

Next. 725 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 2: We are live at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. In fact, 726 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 2: we're at the grand stands so close the horses can 727 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 2: hear me as they come down the main straight away. 728 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 2: You're listing on ninety three to five and one seven 729 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: to five of the fair. We are live at the 730 00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 2: Indiana State Fairness funny. Jerry Palm was just with this tuck. 731 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: But I've only been in the State Fair a couple 732 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 2: of times. Again, he grew up in I grew up 733 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 2: and has spent the last thirty years in Merrillville, and 734 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 2: I kind of had a similar experience growing up as 735 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,760 Speaker 2: a kid. Like my grandfather, who was like the last 736 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 2: of my generation in southern Indiana to actually farm for 737 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 2: a living. He was up here at the Indiana State 738 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 2: Fair on a regular basis. If we went to the 739 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 2: State Fair where I grew up, you crossed the river 740 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 2: and you went to Louisville, just because that was thirty 741 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 2: minutes away. In Indianapolis was two hours away. So now 742 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,439 Speaker 2: for the last twenty years, I've lived less than twenty 743 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 2: blocks from the Indiana State Fair, or I have called 744 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 2: basketball games in the Court Tebec Coliseum for the better 745 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 2: part of the last ten years. And because I'm local, 746 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 2: when I'm usually sitting where I'm at now, or at 747 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 2: least i'm driving through the Christmas lights at least a 748 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: couple of times that take place here at the Indiana 749 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 2: State Fair. But today at the fair Ground Racetrack, it 750 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 2: is standardbred racing literally all the time. And of course 751 00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: they've been a great partner of ours and the fan 752 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 2: and Tony, who is the executive director of the Indiana 753 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 2: Standard Bread Association, joins us. Now, first of all, you've 754 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 2: been hanging out with us for like an hour, so 755 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 2: thank you for doing that, and thanks for having us today. 756 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 6: Absolutely, Greg, great to see you, great to meet you, 757 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 6: meet with you. I think today's the first day we've 758 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,800 Speaker 6: got a chance to work together. But I've been watching 759 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,280 Speaker 6: you from afar. I watched a lot of high school sports. 760 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 2: Well, you and I we learned we have pretty similar 761 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 2: backgrounds in terms of being round the Louisville area and 762 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 2: kind of growing up around the horse racing industry, but 763 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 2: not necessarily in the horse racing industry. Obviously you are 764 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 2: so give us the cliff note speech when I say, 765 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 2: the Indiana Standard Bred Association, what all does that entail? 766 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 6: Has rich history, especially in the state of Indiana. Harness 767 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 6: racing has been going on in this state since the 768 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 6: mid eighteen hundreds. It's been going on at this fair 769 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 6: grounds since its inception, which I believes like eighteen ninety two. 770 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: Wow. 771 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 6: The track was actually one of the first things built 772 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 6: here was the center, and then they began to build 773 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 6: everything around it. It goes all the way back to 774 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 6: the day and Patch and you guys were with us 775 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 6: last Friday night at the Hoosier Park when we had 776 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 6: the Dan Patch Stakes. Dan Patch was a horse from Indiana, Oxford, 777 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 6: Indiana that was a world known But bringing us back 778 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 6: to today today is the culmination of a lot of 779 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 6: hard work, a lot of risk that people take. These 780 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 6: horses were born two three years ago and they were 781 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 6: purchased at a cell that Jamie McCumber is going to 782 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 6: come up later in your program talk about that cell. 783 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 6: But and then they get trained for those two three 784 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 6: years and then they go out to these county fairs, 785 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 6: which we've got nine county fairs. Indiana racing touches all 786 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 6: ninety two counties, and physically we race in nine of 787 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 6: the counties and then they try to get to today, 788 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 6: and today's the Governor's Cup, and you've got to qualify 789 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 6: to be in these consolation races that we're watching right now, 790 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 6: and then later today at five o'clock, we kick off 791 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 6: the Governor Cup Championship, and that's kind the super Bowl 792 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,439 Speaker 6: for these horses. So we see what all that hard work, 793 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 6: that time, that money, that blood, sweat and tears that 794 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 6: these owners' trainers have put into this, and see where 795 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 6: it comes from. 796 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 2: How and again, when you grow up in southern Indiana, Louisville, 797 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,240 Speaker 2: as you and I both did, horse racing, it's Churchill Downs. 798 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 2: Well that's thoroughbred racing, and obviously there's a pretty rich 799 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 2: thoroughbred history. And obviously you know I rattled off the 800 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,399 Speaker 2: different places you can go watch racing in the state 801 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: of Indiana at the beginning of the show. How is 802 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 2: this industry, the standard bread different than the thoroughbread industry. 803 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 6: This is a lot more family oriented. So when you 804 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,839 Speaker 6: see these horsemen out here, I was talking with John 805 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 6: off the air a moment ago. The person Jeff Deaver 806 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 6: won to race two races ago. Well, his parents raced, 807 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 6: his grandfather raced, his grand great grandfather raced. His daughter 808 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 6: is now starting to get into the program at the 809 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,840 Speaker 6: young age of twelve years old, and so it becomes 810 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 6: generational thing where it's part of the family and it's 811 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 6: not a question of are you going to get into it, 812 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 6: You're sucked into it and it's fantastic. And you spoke 813 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 6: about Churchill Downs Louisville. There was also a standard bridge 814 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 6: down there. Louisville Downs at one time was a very big, 815 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 6: big program down there in the Midwest for standardbred racing. 816 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 2: And part of this and I've heard the other hosts 817 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 2: and features over the last week's talk about this, and 818 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,720 Speaker 2: it's part of you got to drop it in casual 819 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 2: conversation again, it season to think about Hoosier Park or 820 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 2: if you go down Evansville Ellis Park, whatever the case 821 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 2: may be. But there are racing that takes place at 822 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,319 Speaker 2: nine of the facilities. Most of them are are are 823 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 2: county fairgrounds. So I guess just more thoughts on that, 824 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 2: except I grew up with it in the Cordon area 825 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 2: which is where this is in the southern part of 826 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 2: the state. I don't think the average Indiana resident knows 827 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 2: that there's standardbred racing that takes place in places other 828 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 2: than you. 829 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 6: Absolutely, you're you're talking about Elkhart, we go to, we 830 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 6: go to Connorsville, we go to Frankfurt, Converse, ken Kent, Lynn, Kendallville, 831 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 6: Harrison County, down in your neck of the woods. Shelbyville 832 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 6: has a very beautiful track anger and stand down there 833 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 6: that horse racing built. I mean, that's what the money 834 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 6: that went into that facility came from horse racing. And 835 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 6: it's one of those things again, it's down home racing 836 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 6: when you go to these county fairs versus going to 837 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 6: a paramutual track like Who's your Park? This is very 838 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 6: down home fille and you can go back into the 839 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 6: barns and you can actually watch physically, get up close 840 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 6: and personal. Now, who's your Park, it's a little more regulated, sir, 841 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 6: and you're not going to be able to get that 842 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 6: close and personal. But here, especially today, this is a 843 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,280 Speaker 6: celebration day for all of county fair racing. 844 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 2: The people that race at these county fairs and at 845 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 2: a place like this do they get to race much 846 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 2: outside of the state of Indiana, or is almost everything 847 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 2: done here? 848 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 6: Say, I'd say probably ninety percent are racing here in 849 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:09,760 Speaker 6: the Hoosier State. Now, several own horses that are sired 850 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 6: in other states and they'll go race those in other states. 851 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 6: There's some big programs out here. You'll see some people 852 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 6: might have. There's one gentleman, Ron Burke.

We are 885 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 2: hanging out at the Indiana State Fairgrounds, and specifically we 886 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 2: are at the track at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. J 887 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 2: Obviously in the month of May we talked about things 888 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 2: like the uh, you know, who's your one hundred back 889 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 2: of the day and going dirt track racing here during the. 890 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: State Fairgrounds are nearing the State Fair. 891 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 2: We're talking about horse racing and particularly standardbred or trotter 892 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 2: racing that takes place here at thirty eighth Street, and 893 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 2: in a full day of activity taking place. Well, it's 894 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 2: been going on most of the morning and here in 895 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 2: the afternoon. I think there's one more race left to go, 896 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 2: I believe for today in terms of this morning session, 897 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 2: and then the evening session kicks in in five, which 898 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 2: is why JMV will be here from three until six 899 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 2: as well. And I have not rotated chairs yet. We'll 900 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 2: figure that out to work on that as the show 901 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 2: goes along. Greg rag Straw Filligan for Jake Query, who 902 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 2: gets a well deserved day off because yesterday Jake. 903 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:35,399 Speaker 1: Had like a triple header. 904 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 2: You know, he filmed Query and Schultz the ISIC Sports 905 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 2: Network yesterday morning, did his radio show from noon until three. 906 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 2: Then he and Derek were working at the Dairy Bar 907 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 2: literally just down the main drag here at the at 908 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 2: the State Fairground. So he did three things. He needed 909 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 2: a break today. So Jake is on the South side 910 00:45:55,239 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 2: of Chicago enjoying some Chicago White Sox Day baseball, and you. 911 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 1: Know, that needs to be an option for me too. 912 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 2: At some point in time, go have name your own 913 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 2: section day, Just ask for the entire left field bleachers. 914 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 2: Can somebody else is going to sit there with you 915 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 2: and just kick back and relax and knowing that I 916 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 2: got to call some of Colson Montgomery's games as a 917 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 2: high school basketball player and as a high school baseball player. 918 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 2: I have loved seeing what he has done for the 919 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 2: White Sox. They're not competitive yet, but they're well. They 920 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 2: could have been worse than last year. Frankly, nine home 921 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 2: runs I think in his first thirty one games, and 922 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 2: which is she's played thirty one, so you have that 923 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 2: kind of these odd and quirky stats. Only Twiler players 924 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 2: have done something like that over the years, et cetera. 925 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 2: One of the guys, first of all, his name was Zeke, 926 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 2: which makes that cool, like back in the thirties, And 927 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 2: the other guy was Jose Abreyer. 928 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: That's done that. That's it in the history of the 929 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,360 Speaker 1: Chicago White Sox, which I'm. 930 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 2: Pretty sure about one hundred and twenty five hundred and 931 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 2: thirty years that he's in the top three in terms 932 00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 2: of home runs hitting. Like his first month as a 933 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 2: major leaguer and really good for him, and especially given 934 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 2: the fact that he was struggling early this year. You know, 935 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 2: he had kind of seemingly hit a wall at Triple A. 936 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 2: He got sent back to extended spring training for a 937 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 2: Cup for a couple of weeks, left Charlotte and then 938 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 2: came back and clearly whatever they worked on out of 939 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 2: Arizona clicked, because now he is legitimately tearing the cover 940 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 2: off of the baseball and he is all of four 941 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 2: years removed from being a Southridge Raider. 942 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,760 Speaker 1: So good for him, good for Colson. 943 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 2: And you know, Jake does the Chicago trip every year, 944 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 2: so that he was gonna do with that whether Colson 945 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 2: Montgomery were there or not. But obviously now he's got 946 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 2: something in Somebody from a local standpoint to go check 947 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 2: out another guest from the In fact, let me check 948 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 2: that John Nolan at one. Another guest from the Standard 949 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 2: Bread Association will join us at one forty five in 950 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,400 Speaker 2: the two o'clock hour of the show. Bob Haney of 951 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 2: the Indie RBI program. They were the runners up in 952 00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 2: the RBI World Series last weekend down in Florida. He'll 953 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 2: be joining us. Another guest in terms of all the 954 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 2: activity taking place here at the Indiana State Fairgrounds from 955 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 2: a horse racing perspective. 956 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:21,400 Speaker 1: Will be joining us and. 957 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 2: An unscheduled now scheduled somewhat celebrity pop in for members 958 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 2: of the Indy eleven, one of whom is from England. 959 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 2: And so let me kind of stop down and tell 960 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 2: you about this. We got two players joining us, and 961 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 2: I'll go look up the second in a moment, but 962 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 2: the first one is the Indie eleven's backup goalkeeper in 963 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 2: Reese Charles Cup And much like a backup quarterback, maybe 964 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 2: you're a backup catcher. Those are the ones that have 965 00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 2: kind of more time to think about things and have 966 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 2: like unique perspectives on the world. And the one thing 967 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,400 Speaker 2: that you get in the sport of soccer would be 968 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 2: like guys that are to some degree international tourists. Like 969 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 2: in case you didn't know, the Indie eleven can have 970 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 2: seven international players on their roster. Now frankly they have more, 971 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: but if you have a green card you do not 972 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:16,479 Speaker 2: count as an international player. You could have seven guys 973 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 2: that are on work permits or visas. I know soccer 974 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 2: visas and work permits not so much so something along 975 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,759 Speaker 2: those lines that could be on the team. And so 976 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,360 Speaker 2: Reese is a guy that has played in England for 977 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 2: the last decade, and there are a lot of guys 978 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 2: that want to come over here and experience playing in 979 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,279 Speaker 2: the States for a year or two, and some guys 980 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 2: get here and stay for the rest of their lives 981 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,640 Speaker 2: to kind of like the head coach. And Sean McCauley 982 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 2: came over to play, went back to England to coach 983 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 2: and now has been coaching in the States for some time. 984 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 2: But we have jokingly kind of called the series of 985 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 2: things that Reese goes in does for the Indy eleven. 986 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,920 Speaker 2: Reese does America like I am picturing a logo from 987 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 2: like Beavis and butt Head to America, like from nineteen 988 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:01,320 Speaker 2: eighty seven, something similar as far as as Reese is concerned. 989 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 2: So anyway, today Reese is doing the State Fair for 990 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,759 Speaker 2: the first time and seeing guys from other countries and 991 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,840 Speaker 2: the late Great and knowing this as Jake's show and 992 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,320 Speaker 2: John would bring up the same reference, Robin Miller do 993 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 2: the same thing. Try to bring as many Indie car 994 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,879 Speaker 2: guys from different backgrounds to experience the State Fair. 995 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 1: Indie leven are doing that. 996 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 2: So Reese will stop by and hang out with us 997 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 2: coming up at some point in time during the two 998 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 2: o'clock hour, the show. 999 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: Phone lines are open three one seven, nine, ten seventy. 1000 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 2: This is probably your best chance to be on the 1001 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:38,359 Speaker 2: program if there's something that you want to say, if 1002 00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 2: I have not driven you off from listening to the 1003 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,799 Speaker 2: show and you want to interact with me. Three one seven, 1004 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 2: two nine ten seven. I also tell friends, simply hit 1005 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 2: the batphone if you're listening, as my buddy Brant has done, 1006 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 2: and he asked, I think a very relevant question here. 1007 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 2: Nicoles have a better shot making the playoffs with Richardson 1008 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:07,319 Speaker 2: or Jones. Does it matter who's at the quarterback spot? Oh, 1009 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 2: it always matters at the quarterback spot. But that is 1010 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 2: very much a legitimate question. The easy answer has been 1011 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 2: the ceiling for this football team is significantly higher with 1012 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson, that if he hits and hits for big 1013 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 2: plays and doesn't give the football away, that this offenses 1014 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 2: can be so much more explosive. That this team's best 1015 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:45,880 Speaker 2: bet to be successful is with Anthony Richardson, but that 1016 00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 2: the floor is significantly higher with Daniel Jones and with 1017 00:51:55,680 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 2: a weapon like Jonathan Taylor, knowing that the widers your 1018 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,840 Speaker 2: position is seemingly settled. 1019 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: And let me give you an example. 1020 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:10,879 Speaker 2: Colts last year's three top receivers, Pierce, Downs, Pittman, Pierce 1021 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 2: a little banged up right now, but those three guys 1022 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 2: all had over eight hundred yards receiving last year. You know, 1023 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 2: the last time the Colts had three receivers go for 1024 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 2: over eight hundred yards was twenty years ago, was two 1025 00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:26,240 Speaker 2: thousand and four. You know, it's funny when you invest 1026 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 2: first and second round picks on a yearly basis, things 1027 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 2: tend to work out at said position. Michael Pittman second 1028 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,919 Speaker 2: round pick, Alec Pierce, second round pick, Josh Down's third 1029 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 2: round pick. Behind them, Ady Mitchell, Who's gonna get more reps? 1030 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,239 Speaker 2: Because my guess is Pierce doesn't play. I think he'll 1031 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 2: play when the season starts, at least. I don't know 1032 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 2: the kind of it his injury, but I don't think 1033 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 2: he's going to play this coming Saturday, because he got 1034 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 2: hurt on Sunday and misspractice on Monday. You were talking 1035 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 2: a lot about a d Mitchell right now. He's your 1036 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,800 Speaker 2: fourth receiver. It's why I tend to talk less about 1037 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 2: him to me this is a big year for Mitchell. 1038 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:07,359 Speaker 2: Just because of what Mitchell does is going to tell 1039 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:11,240 Speaker 2: you how much you'd want to spend on Alec Pierce 1040 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 2: because he is Elves were his next deal going into 1041 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,320 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty six season. 1042 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 1: You could argue. 1043 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:30,320 Speaker 2: That maybe the safe play is Daniel Jones, but I 1044 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 2: think the play that you want, And again I have 1045 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,440 Speaker 2: said the tie goes to the incumbent, the tye ghost 1046 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,720 Speaker 2: to the runner. When I am talking with Kevin Bowen, 1047 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 2: I use a Ryder Cup reference. You know, if it 1048 00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 2: finishes fourteen fourteen, the team that had the cup gets 1049 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,080 Speaker 2: to keep the cup. That's going to be Anthony Richardson. 1050 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,360 Speaker 2: I think Anthony Richardson. I think it's a fair competition. 1051 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 2: But Anthony Richardson is going to be given every chance 1052 00:53:56,760 --> 00:54:00,919 Speaker 2: to win the job. So it's a fair question. 1053 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 1: Brant. 1054 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 2: I left part of your text out because I would 1055 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,359 Speaker 2: disagree with you on one point, but again we'll leave 1056 00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 2: that for you and me. The other question that Brandt 1057 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 2: had to ask me, what are your thoughts of the 1058 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,600 Speaker 2: Pacers getting snubbed out of a Christmas Day matchup? Well, 1059 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 2: you kind of knew that was going to be the 1060 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:22,360 Speaker 2: case without the Tyre with the Tyrees Haliburton injury, right 1061 00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 2: that all of you know, we had the big hubbub 1062 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 2: about the you know, Opening Day games and the Christmas 1063 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 2: Day games, etc. And had that injury not have happened, A, 1064 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 2: maybe we're talking about a world championship being here in Indianapolis. B. Yes, 1065 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:44,719 Speaker 2: the the Pacers are featured on NBA Opening Night. The 1066 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 2: Pacers are featured on Christmas Day. I mean you have 1067 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,960 Speaker 2: to go back like twenty years with the patient to 1068 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 2: be playing on Christmas Day, right, It's been like that 1069 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:55,359 Speaker 2: level or that long. 1070 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 1: So I get it. I understand it. 1071 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,320 Speaker 2: I kind of knew that was coming, you know, the 1072 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 2: Pacers get kind of like when we talked about this 1073 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 2: with Eddie last hour in the show, and we'll talk 1074 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 2: about again with John Nolan in the next segment show. 1075 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 2: When we started talking about the Indian out of Fever again, 1076 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:18,839 Speaker 2: Fever lost last night the Dallas Wings eighty one to eighty, 1077 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 2: a team behind them in the playoffs standings in playoff push. 1078 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,239 Speaker 2: But again, the Fever are so beaten up. You're down 1079 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 2: three point guards at this point. You're playing somebody that 1080 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,800 Speaker 2: had like a day of practice with you and getting 1081 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:35,480 Speaker 2: certificate minutes, you have to grade on a curve right. Well, 1082 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 2: the same things happens for the Indiana Pacers. They are 1083 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 2: not going to be an NBA spotlight team without having 1084 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 2: Tyrese Haliburt, knowing that he is going to miss the 1085 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 2: entire season. 1086 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 1: So it's it's not a slight from the NBA. I 1087 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: get it. It's fair to question. 1088 00:55:57,600 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 2: I think the Pacers are probably in the six to 1089 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 2: seven eight playoff seed discussion, not in the one two 1090 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:08,759 Speaker 2: three playoff discussion, and so because of that, you are 1091 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:12,840 Speaker 2: going to feature the best players and the best teams 1092 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 2: on Christmas Day, and the general thought is the Pacers 1093 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:18,839 Speaker 2: are not going to be of that group this year. 1094 00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 2: So it stinks because they would have been there. But 1095 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 2: this is a case where I completely understand it. Three one, seven, two, 1096 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,759 Speaker 2: three nine, ten seventy is the telephone number. We can 1097 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 2: talk any and all things, Colts if you would like again. 1098 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 2: Colts get back to practice against the Green Bay Packers tomorrow. 1099 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 2: One session session has sold out three to five. It 1100 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 2: is the last day of training camp in Westfield. Flew 1101 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:53,880 Speaker 2: By Quick literally was open for twenty two days and 1102 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 2: there was a six day gap when they were gone 1103 00:56:56,520 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 2: in Baltimore, like I was gone in Baltimore for three 1104 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 2: days last week. But your last chance to see the 1105 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 2: Colts in a non game scenario will be tomorrow. But 1106 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:11,320 Speaker 2: if you don't have tickets, you're not going to be 1107 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 2: getting in because again that was sold out, and I 1108 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 2: would imagine there'll be just a few melting cheeseheads there 1109 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 2: tomorrow as well. Obviously, game Saturday at one o'clock we 1110 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 2: are on CBS four. I think for each of the 1111 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 2: next two I should know this, right. You would think 1112 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 2: I would know what televisionation I'm going to be on 1113 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 2: on Saturday. CBS four is going to be the broadcast 1114 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 2: home And in case you were wondering, Rick Venturrey is 1115 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 2: back with me on the broadcast. First of all, Joe 1116 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 2: Wrights was phenomenal, and the Indianapolis Colts have seemingly figured 1117 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 2: this out. I hope we lead the league and wins 1118 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 2: again at some point in time. I hope we lead 1119 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 2: the league in home playoff games at some point in time. 1120 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 2: Right now, with Indianapolis Colts lead the league in his 1121 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 2: quality analysts, Because most teams would like to have one 1122 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 2: as good as Rick Ventury. 1123 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 1: We have Rick Ventury. 1124 00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,240 Speaker 2: We have Joe Wrights, and we have Charles Arbuckle, and 1125 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 2: I'm fortunate to call all three of those guys friends 1126 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:15,160 Speaker 2: get a chance to work with those guys on a 1127 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 2: regular basis. So Rick and I have the television broadcast 1128 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 2: coming up on Saturday. Joe is back with me for 1129 00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 2: the trip to Cincinnati next Saturday, because Rick is going 1130 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,280 Speaker 2: to focus on doing just home games this year from 1131 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:32,080 Speaker 2: both a television standpoint and both a radio standpoint as well. 1132 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 2: So in case you're curious wondering about that, that's the case. 1133 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 2: So Rick and I, of course Leira Overton and yes, 1134 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 2: Carly Ersa Gordon will be joining us during the third 1135 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 2: quarter of the game. So that, thankfully, that wonderful tradition 1136 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:52,160 Speaker 2: that her father started of coming on board during a 1137 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 2: preseason telecast to answer our questions that is going to 1138 00:58:56,840 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 2: continue with the next generation of the earth A family 1139 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 2: as well. So we were very much looking forward to 1140 00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 2: that during the third quarter of Saturday's game. 1141 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 4: Anything a step stool or something, or make Joe Wright 1142 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 4: down that way we can get some nice headshots there. 1143 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 2: It's the other way around. This week, I tower over Rick, 1144 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 2: I was on a conference call for another broadcast. I 1145 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 2: am on this weekend because like in the soccer parlance, 1146 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:30,520 Speaker 2: I tend to tower over and take up much more 1147 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 2: real estate than my normal analysts do. Like for the 1148 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 2: first eleven years of Indie eleven soccer, you know, I'm 1149 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 2: kind of looking up a little bit to Brad Hotter. 1150 00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 2: It so happens you have a goalkeeper, you know, be 1151 00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 2: the broadcast with you. This year, I got a couple 1152 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 2: of former midfielders that are with me on the Indy 1153 00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 2: eleven broadcasts. It's Brad Ring who wears a childish medium shirt, 1154 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,200 Speaker 2: and Dan Capsalas, and they are about it. They average 1155 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 2: about five six between the two of them, and so 1156 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:58,320 Speaker 2: I look gargantawan next to them. Rick played in the 1157 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 2: Big Ten but didn't play because of his height. I 1158 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:05,919 Speaker 2: tend to tower over him. Joe, who is skinnier as 1159 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 2: a post NFL player then as he was as a 1160 01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 2: Division I college basketball player or an NFL player, Like 1161 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,320 Speaker 2: Joe tower's over me. So that was rare for me 1162 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 2: to kind of have that, you know, looking up sort 1163 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 2: of thing. The seesaw goes in the other direction in 1164 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:25,080 Speaker 2: terms of my broadcast this week, but yes, it was 1165 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 2: talked about me giving me some phone books or something 1166 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 2: like that. And for the Cincinnati game, perhaps we go 1167 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 2: that route. Or I know when Cincinnati our booth is 1168 01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 2: like teeny tiny, they'll be kind of shooting us from above, 1169 01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:39,240 Speaker 2: So maybe we'll both have that look and Joe just 1170 01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 2: speak closer to the camera. Eddie, I have had you, 1171 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 2: if not sitting on the sidelines, you have not chimed 1172 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 2: in in terms of the company part of the program 1173 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,480 Speaker 2: for the last hour. Being a solo host and an 1174 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 2: only child, I tend to dominate all of the airways. 1175 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 2: Anything that I have been leaving you out of in 1176 01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 2: our conversations over the last hour or so. 1177 01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 3: I don't think so. 1178 01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 4: Just the fact that you know, high school foll Paul, 1179 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,240 Speaker 4: it does start this week. I know we've got some 1180 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:04,360 Speaker 4: scrimmagees going and next thing, you know, we're a couple 1181 01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 4: of weeks away from, you know, the start of the 1182 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 4: high school football season. Didn't know if you had any 1183 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 4: thoughts on some of the central Indianapolis high schools on 1184 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,680 Speaker 4: who's going to be good, who could be a sleeper team, 1185 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 4: players to watch for that kind of stuff. 1186 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 1: You know, I think it's gonna be a lot of 1187 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 1: the same. 1188 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 2: To be honest with you, you know, and part of 1189 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 2: the story now not just every couple of years, but 1190 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 2: every year, now that the success factor is is on 1191 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:32,320 Speaker 2: an every two year basis. 1192 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 1: And it's funny. 1193 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 2: The first scup of familiar names that I saw when 1194 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 2: I came into the the parking area for the State 1195 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 2: Fairgrounds earlier today was the IHSAA, you know, front office. 1196 01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 2: I literally spent four hours at the IHSA offices for 1197 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,880 Speaker 2: a different broadcast meeting yesterday, and I'm like, you guys, 1198 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 2: can't I saw and they were at colts practice on 1199 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 2: Saturday nights. I'm like, you guys, can't, but this is 1200 01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 2: normally state championship season. You guys can't get away from me. 1201 01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 2: But here we are, and you're stuck seeing me here 1202 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 2: again today. Now that it's every year and teams will 1203 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 2: be going up and down kind of every year, we'll 1204 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 2: have this conversation every August where you almost feel like 1205 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 2: the need is to let people know, Hey, new Pals 1206 01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:17,360 Speaker 2: in five A, or Decatur Central's in six A, or 1207 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 2: Cathedral is in five A. And so I think it 1208 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 2: will be a lot of the same teams, even though 1209 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 2: some of those teams are in different classifications. And so 1210 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 2: what the thing that I would look forward to. And 1211 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:38,919 Speaker 2: I'm by no means trying to shortchange the upcoming nine 1212 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,480 Speaker 2: week regular season in any way, shape, form, or fashion. 1213 01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,920 Speaker 2: But the fact is the Cathedral and New pald on 1214 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:49,480 Speaker 2: the same sectional, and geographically they should be. You've got 1215 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 2: thirty three teams. I think there's one five A game 1216 01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 2: the opening week. It's not in that sectional. But there's 1217 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:56,960 Speaker 2: thirty three teams that are in five A this year, 1218 01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 2: and probably two of the best of them just happen 1219 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,160 Speaker 2: to be fifteen to twenty minutes spark from each other, 1220 01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:06,640 Speaker 2: and so they are going to be in the same section. 1221 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 2: May not meet in week one, they don't, They're probably 1222 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,560 Speaker 2: going to meet in week two. When Cathedral has been 1223 01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:14,080 Speaker 2: in four A or five A, they have won it. 1224 01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:17,320 Speaker 2: When they have been in six A, they have been competitive, 1225 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:20,720 Speaker 2: but they have normally stopped in the sectional or the 1226 01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 2: regional round. Well, now they're back in five A. And 1227 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 2: I know you really asked that question. I say, hear 1228 01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 2: me talk about Kyle Enwright and the cater Central Hawks. 1229 01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 2: Much like I am a proud lanes with the love 1230 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 2: and look to work them in conversation at every opportunity, 1231 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:37,040 Speaker 2: you do the same with the cater Central. I think 1232 01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:41,120 Speaker 2: Kyle's bunch will be very competitive in their first year 1233 01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:43,480 Speaker 2: in six A. And I will also tell you this, 1234 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:47,360 Speaker 2: I maybe more so than the other sports that I do, 1235 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 2: because what I do from my high school football standpoint 1236 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 2: is so six A dominant because football is the one 1237 01:03:57,680 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 2: show that as of yet I don't do the pairing show, 1238 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 2: and that's not a complaint for me. Bob and Paul 1239 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 2: have done that show since I think the beginning of 1240 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 2: Western civilization. I think the Mayflowers came here in eighty four, 1241 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:12,000 Speaker 2: and then Bob and Paul did the selection show the 1242 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 2: next year, and so I kind of let those guys 1243 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:21,600 Speaker 2: do it. I don't have to be as thirty thousand 1244 01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 2: foot view in football as I am in other sports. 1245 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:27,760 Speaker 2: So like when I get that generic question from a 1246 01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 2: lot of people, Hey, who's going to be Who's good 1247 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 2: in football this year? And they expect like a six 1248 01:04:31,880 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 2: class answer, And in football, my answer tends to be 1249 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 2: much more of a six to A perspective because that 1250 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 2: is what I see. There's usually a week first week 1251 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 2: of the section, well, I will see like the top 1252 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 2: four a matchup or the top three a matchup. Last 1253 01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:48,360 Speaker 2: year that was Dan Wilmer buff and four A. This 1254 01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:50,960 Speaker 2: year it might be a five A matchup because we 1255 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 2: have an extra team that's going to cause an extra 1256 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 2: week of the postseason that level. But in football, I 1257 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 2: really see about a six or seven team rotation. It's Carmel, 1258 01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:05,840 Speaker 2: it's Warren Central, it's Ben Davis, it's Lawrence North, it's 1259 01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 2: Lawrence Central, a little bit of North Central, just the 1260 01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 2: way that it works. Like HSC and Brownsburg both kind 1261 01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:16,400 Speaker 2: of appear. And I'll see Westfield like in week number two. 1262 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 2: But I can give you a chapter and verse on 1263 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,520 Speaker 2: those teams. The wide angle lens from me tends to 1264 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 2: be six A, and I'll go, hey, I've got a 1265 01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 2: study five A. As the season goes along, knowing i'll 1266 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 2: see the five Bay State championship game as well, again 1267 01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:32,920 Speaker 2: one by your Decatur Central Hawks a season ago. My 1268 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 2: thought would be in this sounds like a cop out, 1269 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:36,160 Speaker 2: but I'll try to explain and make sure you know 1270 01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:38,440 Speaker 2: it's not kind of you feel. I want to see 1271 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:40,040 Speaker 2: a lot of the same teams I saw last year. 1272 01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 2: In other words, Lawrence North was easily the best team 1273 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 2: in the Mickay season ago, and even though they had 1274 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:49,440 Speaker 2: a lot of kids graduate. They bring back their top 1275 01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,080 Speaker 2: running back in Zaymore, they bring back their top wide receiver, 1276 01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:55,400 Speaker 2: one of their top receivers in Mons and Sales, and 1277 01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:59,400 Speaker 2: they have enough playmakers back defensively, I expect Pat Mallory's 1278 01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:00,840 Speaker 2: team to be really good, and they are the team 1279 01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 2: that I see next week. My opening game on my 1280 01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 2: NDTV twenty three is the battle for Lawrence Township. Is 1281 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,480 Speaker 2: Lawrence Central Lawrence Nor second consecutive year, it is back 1282 01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 2: to being the opening week of the season. That's my 1283 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:14,920 Speaker 2: first game that I'll have next Friday night on wnd Y. 1284 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,320 Speaker 2: But the teams that ended up making their way to 1285 01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:22,640 Speaker 2: the regional slash semi state round in six A, I 1286 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 2: think they're the teams we're talking about again. The defending 1287 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 2: champs in Brownsburg played a two quarterback system and did 1288 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,160 Speaker 2: so as effectively as I have ever seen a high 1289 01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 2: school team do it. Even if you knew one guy 1290 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 2: was the quote throwing quarterback, one guy was quote running quarterback, 1291 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:38,439 Speaker 2: didn't lie you to stop it any better. Between fry 1292 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 2: and Stevens, well, Frye is back. Stevens has graduated, and 1293 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 2: again they've got a lot of their skill position kids back. 1294 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 2: They much like Lawrence so graduated some key pieces on defense, 1295 01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:52,240 Speaker 2: but I expect them. You bring a quarterback back with 1296 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:55,240 Speaker 2: that lot experience, they're going to be good. Center Grove 1297 01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:57,400 Speaker 2: switch at their quarterback. Center Grove is going to be 1298 01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 2: good every year. As long as Eric More is there, 1299 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:03,280 Speaker 2: Center Grove is going to be good every year. Those 1300 01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 2: two teams in Browns Berger Center Grove played in the 1301 01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 2: semi State around last year, with Brownsburg getting the victory 1302 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 2: down at CG. Crown Point has established themselves Staalastur passing 1303 01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:15,480 Speaker 2: Penn as the best six to eight team out of Indianapolis. 1304 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 2: They're not out of Indianapol. They're not that many of them. 1305 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,080 Speaker 2: They're gonna come out and play Pike or they're going 1306 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:22,959 Speaker 2: to play Pike in week number two. That's a step 1307 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:25,800 Speaker 2: in the right direction for them from a scheduling standpoint. 1308 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:30,320 Speaker 2: But frankly, even though some of the last names are different, 1309 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:34,880 Speaker 2: I think the teams that will be competing late in 1310 01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 2: the season in six. 1311 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 1: A are largely the same. 1312 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 2: And I expect Eddie's Decater Central Hawks to be very 1313 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:43,960 Speaker 2: competitive in their first year because they got several Division 1314 01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 2: IE level kids that are coming back on that team. 1315 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 2: They may be successful up in six A to hang 1316 01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 2: around in six A and as that school grows, that 1317 01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 2: could be heading that direction anyway. The other team that 1318 01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:58,200 Speaker 2: I would say I think is a bit of a 1319 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:01,440 Speaker 2: swing team this year, and just the quirk in the schedule, 1320 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 2: I don't see them until week five would be Warren. 1321 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,080 Speaker 2: Warren last year were like Monsters of the Midway. Good defensively, 1322 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 2: but offensively they were not good and eventually that was 1323 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 2: their undoing as the season went along. 1324 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:18,920 Speaker 1: New head coach and JT. 1325 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 2: Whitker Mike Kerzner has stepped away from being a head 1326 01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:26,240 Speaker 2: coach now as helping his son in Hamilton Heights. They 1327 01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:27,960 Speaker 2: lost a lot of starters, but man, the couple of 1328 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 2: kids they bring back on defense. I mean, Jeremy Finch 1329 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:34,439 Speaker 2: may be the best recruited player in terms of the 1330 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:39,080 Speaker 2: state of Indiana. Caleb Elkins is not that far behind him. Offensively, 1331 01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 2: what can they do? They may be the team that 1332 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 2: is best set up for growth from week one until 1333 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:51,040 Speaker 2: Game ten, the first game of the postseason. So there 1334 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 2: you go, some quick thoughts on high school football, and yes, 1335 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:56,160 Speaker 2: I get him to the teeth of that. As of 1336 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:58,479 Speaker 2: next week. We'll take this quick time out of a 1337 01:08:58,479 --> 01:09:02,879 Speaker 2: little Indiana Fever conversation and the racing activity has gone quiet. 1338 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:05,799 Speaker 2: It sounds like something I would say at sixteenth in Georgetown. 1339 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:09,080 Speaker 2: Now I'm like at thirty eighth and Benford or Fall Creek. 1340 01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:11,720 Speaker 2: We're at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. It is a big 1341 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:14,640 Speaker 2: day for the trotters, for the standard bred horses. The 1342 01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 2: next racing session starts at five o'clock. You were listening 1343 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 2: on ninety three to five and one oh seven to 1344 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:20,879 Speaker 2: five of the fan. 1345 01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 8: The Fever will inbound it near their bench with a 1346 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:30,360 Speaker 8: one point seven on the clock. Assistant coach Austin Kelly, 1347 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:33,519 Speaker 8: who acts as an offensive coordinator, calls out of play. 1348 01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:38,600 Speaker 8: Sophie's the inbounder toshed between the rings. Sophie has it, 1349 01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:41,680 Speaker 8: scans Kelsey comes to get it from the corner near 1350 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 8: the bench, heaves no good and the game is over. 1351 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:48,960 Speaker 8: Final score Dallas eighty one, Indiana eighty. 1352 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 2: You know, the Indiana Fever had this great tagline which 1353 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 2: is absolutely spot on and is talking just a bit 1354 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:57,240 Speaker 2: of trash saying every game as a home game. It 1355 01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,160 Speaker 2: was unique as I was driving around last night to 1356 01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 2: hear some cheers when the Wings would score because of 1357 01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:07,800 Speaker 2: the page Beckers fans that were in attendance at last 1358 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 2: night's game. The voice that you just heard is the 1359 01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:12,760 Speaker 2: voice you're about to hear again. In his first year 1360 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 2: as the radio voice of the Indiana Fever, John Nolan. 1361 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 2: Of course, every game is heard on the Urban one 1362 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,160 Speaker 2: family of stations, if not ninety three to five and 1363 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:24,559 Speaker 2: one oh seven five, the ninety three WIBC Afternoon. 1364 01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:27,080 Speaker 1: My friend, how you doing? Hey Rik? 1365 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:29,240 Speaker 9: All right, thanks for having me. I would be doing 1366 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 9: better if that shot for Kelsey went in, or if 1367 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:35,360 Speaker 9: they dig themselves into a seventeen point hole in the 1368 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:39,280 Speaker 9: fourth quarter, but nevertheless, Sun Shining a chance to get 1369 01:10:39,320 --> 01:10:40,400 Speaker 9: back to it on Friday night. 1370 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:46,000 Speaker 2: Well, it's eleven players that are on an average WNBA roster, correct. 1371 01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:49,400 Speaker 1: I took twelve is. 1372 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:51,760 Speaker 9: The max you can have, and so I'm not sure 1373 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:54,519 Speaker 9: out of the thirteen teams the breakdown of how many 1374 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:57,240 Speaker 9: have twelve versus eleven? Because yeah, now to get into 1375 01:10:57,280 --> 01:10:59,680 Speaker 9: the wis the Fever were only carrying eleven? So much 1376 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:02,639 Speaker 9: of this than dude a salary cap reason? So yeah, 1377 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,200 Speaker 9: eleven or twelve though one most. 1378 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 2: Raptors, so you've had like sixteen or seventeen because of 1379 01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 2: injury hardship, contracts and things of that nature. I mentioned 1380 01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:13,320 Speaker 2: tho was Deddy Garrison off the top of the show 1381 01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:20,320 Speaker 2: because of the injuries at one specific position. Yes, it's 1382 01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:22,720 Speaker 2: a disappointing loss of Dallas last night. I get that 1383 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 2: they're a sub five hundred team and won't be a 1384 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:28,680 Speaker 2: playoff team, but you kind of take everything with a 1385 01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:31,960 Speaker 2: grain of salt right now for this basketball team, right yeah. 1386 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:35,880 Speaker 9: Absolutely, And frankly, what the team did with the feverit 1387 01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 9: did on Saturday night and not only defeating Chicago but 1388 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:42,960 Speaker 9: blowing them out the arena, I mean, that was really 1389 01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:46,320 Speaker 9: amazing in itself and probably set up in a false 1390 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 9: expectation for going forward. So I think, you know a 1391 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 9: few left overs thoughts that I have one. I mean, 1392 01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:55,400 Speaker 9: because last night, the big part of the reason they 1393 01:11:55,439 --> 01:11:58,000 Speaker 9: lost the game is they wind up having more turnovers 1394 01:11:58,040 --> 01:12:00,519 Speaker 9: than at six and that's just, you know, not really 1395 01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:03,760 Speaker 9: gonna cut it. It's frankly incredible that they had a 1396 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:08,080 Speaker 9: shot at the last second to potentially still win the game. Nevertheless, 1397 01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:12,600 Speaker 9: Chicago is an ideal matchup because Chicago could force the 1398 01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:15,679 Speaker 9: fewest turnovers in the league. They just don't have guards 1399 01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:19,599 Speaker 9: that are ball hawking. Type of pressuring players. Now, Dallas 1400 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,240 Speaker 9: they're only middle of the pack in terms of forcing turnovers. 1401 01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:25,680 Speaker 9: But one feeling from last night was that and this 1402 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,640 Speaker 9: is not news, right, this is a continuing issue in 1403 01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:32,679 Speaker 9: the WNBA, and Stephanie White once again was vocal about 1404 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:35,840 Speaker 9: it afterwards. Officiating left something to be desired, and it 1405 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 9: felt like there were a lot of times where you know, 1406 01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 9: there was a mugging going on out there and it 1407 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:44,799 Speaker 9: went on called and so pressure and you know, excess 1408 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:47,719 Speaker 9: pressure really contributed to some of the ball control issues 1409 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:50,800 Speaker 9: that the Fever had last night. Also, one thing that 1410 01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:54,240 Speaker 9: the Steaver were able to unveil back on uttering against 1411 01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:57,320 Speaker 9: Chicago was a zone defense that they had installed literally 1412 01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:00,599 Speaker 9: just before the game a few hours four its hip 1413 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:03,720 Speaker 9: as they were trying to get by with only nine 1414 01:13:03,720 --> 01:13:06,519 Speaker 9: available players and players being out of position. Well, you know, 1415 01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 9: Dallas had what forty eight hours and then study that 1416 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:14,160 Speaker 9: tape and have a game plan for attacking the zone. 1417 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:17,439 Speaker 9: And so the zone was not as successful last night. 1418 01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:20,840 Speaker 9: And then they did sign Odyssey Simms as a veteran 1419 01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 9: point guard and she made her debut last night. And 1420 01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 9: I think for the big picture or the upcoming picture, 1421 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,679 Speaker 9: you know, the team will be better for having someone 1422 01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:32,760 Speaker 9: with her experience as a point guard. But nevertheless, last 1423 01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:37,080 Speaker 9: night pretty tough situation being thrust into action with only 1424 01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 9: one practice under her belt. So yeah, not to completely 1425 01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:43,280 Speaker 9: alibi it, but it is, as you have touched on, 1426 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:46,360 Speaker 9: there understandable that they you know, weren't able to win 1427 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:48,599 Speaker 9: this game given the adversity of they're facing. 1428 01:13:49,360 --> 01:13:53,240 Speaker 2: There are always things that you know as the team broadcast, 1429 01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:57,000 Speaker 2: when you travel with the team, that even journalist average 1430 01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,080 Speaker 2: fans don't know. I'm not trying to put you at 1431 01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:00,920 Speaker 2: risk of losing your because I like you. I want 1432 01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:03,639 Speaker 2: to see it, you know, be successful with the Indiana fever. 1433 01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:07,960 Speaker 2: But from from a maybe more educated guest than most standpoint, 1434 01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:12,080 Speaker 2: any sort of inkling feeling best educated guests in terms 1435 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:15,320 Speaker 2: of a Caitlyn Clark return for this basketball team. 1436 01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 9: See, we're inside information. I thought you were going to 1437 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:20,880 Speaker 9: ask about what snacks we get on the plane, because. 1438 01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 1: Well that's the all fair conversation that's very important to 1439 01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:23,519 Speaker 1: me too. 1440 01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:28,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry, story down though, I don't have 1441 01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 9: any you know, added say. I think again, going back 1442 01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 9: to what Holly Rowe had reported on an ESPN ABC broadcast, 1443 01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 9: at the end of July that you know, the second 1444 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 9: half of August would be a potential you know time 1445 01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:47,519 Speaker 9: for Kitlin to be able to come back again. Going 1446 01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 9: off of what Stephanie White has said, it's going to 1447 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:54,439 Speaker 9: be essential that Caitlin gets practiced SiZ I believe it's 1448 01:14:54,479 --> 01:14:57,479 Speaker 9: been said in a plural form practice SI under her 1449 01:14:57,560 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 9: belt before she would return to the game action. As 1450 01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:03,880 Speaker 9: of as of today, she had not returned to be 1451 01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 9: a full participate in practices. So when the team has 1452 01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:10,360 Speaker 9: been practicing, she's been going through individual workouts and then 1453 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:12,760 Speaker 9: you know, the latest sort of sign of progress is 1454 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 9: that she has been getting up and down the court 1455 01:15:14,560 --> 01:15:17,679 Speaker 9: full court, but that is not with the full team. 1456 01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 9: So we really are going to have to wait until 1457 01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:22,479 Speaker 9: we hear that she is a full participated team practice. 1458 01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:27,759 Speaker 9: Before then you can really start to have a radar 1459 01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 9: or bulls eye on what date she could be coming back, 1460 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,679 Speaker 9: Just as an update for anyone, schedule wise home Friday 1461 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:38,040 Speaker 9: night seven thirty against Washington on the road, Sunday at Connecticut, 1462 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 9: and then a rarity as far as the schedule goes, 1463 01:15:41,240 --> 01:15:44,799 Speaker 9: four days off next week Monday through Thursday, So Friday, 1464 01:15:44,880 --> 01:15:46,760 Speaker 9: the twenty second home against Minnesota. 1465 01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:47,600 Speaker 7: And I'm not. 1466 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 9: Saying that's when I think she will come back, but 1467 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,840 Speaker 9: that would seem to be probably the first realistic date. 1468 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:56,599 Speaker 2: Here ahead again, John Nolan Radio Voice of the Indiana Fever, 1469 01:15:56,720 --> 01:15:59,799 Speaker 2: our guests Greg rakestraw in for Jay Query the insert 1470 01:15:59,840 --> 01:16:02,000 Speaker 2: your name here guest line on ninety three to five 1471 01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:04,559 Speaker 2: and one seven to five of the fan. All right, 1472 01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:08,720 Speaker 2: So with that, if slash win, then we think it's 1473 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:11,519 Speaker 2: win and not if for Caitlin at some point in 1474 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:15,439 Speaker 2: time the remainder of this season, you simply plug her 1475 01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:20,280 Speaker 2: into this lineup. Is this still a team been on 1476 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:23,280 Speaker 2: a given night or three times in five nights or 1477 01:16:23,280 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 2: four times and seven nights, can still beat anybody else 1478 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:27,520 Speaker 2: in the WNBA? 1479 01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:29,160 Speaker 1: Any question about that in your mind? 1480 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:34,280 Speaker 9: Well, I might have a question about Minnesota because of 1481 01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:36,600 Speaker 9: the credit of the Minnesota links. They've been in a 1482 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:40,320 Speaker 9: class on their own, because otherwise one name that's sort 1483 01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:43,880 Speaker 9: of been aligne used throughout the season with the Fever 1484 01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 9: has been some frustration over a lack of consistency. Well, 1485 01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 9: truth is, that's applied to basically everyone in the league, 1486 01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 9: almost with the exception of Minnesota. That said, Minnesota has 1487 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:57,640 Speaker 9: had a couple of head scratching games themselves, one of 1488 01:16:57,680 --> 01:16:59,680 Speaker 9: which they would probably say was one day came up 1489 01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 9: with team point lead against the Fever and the Commissioners 1490 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,680 Speaker 9: Cup Championship game at home. But then on the other 1491 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 9: side you could say, well, yeah, the Fever proved that 1492 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,479 Speaker 9: they could win there in Minnesota and in a game 1493 01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:13,240 Speaker 9: with some higher stakes. So I do think that with 1494 01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:17,439 Speaker 9: a healthy Caitlin Clark, the ceiling for this team is 1495 01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:21,639 Speaker 9: to contend for a championship. That said, right now, currently 1496 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 9: in sixth in the standing, So that's where you know, 1497 01:17:24,280 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 9: that's where a loss like last night does hurt you, 1498 01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:30,080 Speaker 9: because they went from being in front of Las Vegas 1499 01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:33,200 Speaker 9: the falling behind Las Vegas. It would be nice with 1500 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:35,439 Speaker 9: eight teams making the playoffs, it would be nice to 1501 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:37,919 Speaker 9: be in a top four spot app home court advantage 1502 01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 9: because of how outstanding the environment is at gamebridge Fieldhouse. 1503 01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:45,840 Speaker 9: So you know now that the work is cut out 1504 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,599 Speaker 9: for them to try to be in that top tier. 1505 01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:51,680 Speaker 2: Finding forward, let you go and I realize that you 1506 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:54,519 Speaker 2: have spent literally as much time outside of Indianapolis as 1507 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 2: you have in Indianapolis since getting here, because you travel 1508 01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 2: everywhere with the team.

Jessica, how are you today? 1575 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:14,960 Speaker 1: I am fine? How are you good? 1576 01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:18,519 Speaker 2: And I am learning more about the intricacies of not 1577 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:21,799 Speaker 2: just racing at the two tracks that we are familiar 1578 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:25,280 Speaker 2: with in Central Indiana and Anderson and in Shelbyville, but 1579 01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:29,599 Speaker 2: about the nine different standard red horse racing facilities often 1580 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:32,640 Speaker 2: at county fairgrounds across state, which is frankly part of 1581 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 2: the reason why you have us out here on a 1582 01:21:34,280 --> 01:21:34,760 Speaker 2: daylight time. 1583 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:37,479 Speaker 10: Yeah, correct, Yes, So we have a series of races. 1584 01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 11: Our county fair program is kind of I like to 1585 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:43,080 Speaker 11: equate it to the minor leagues when you think about baseball. 1586 01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:46,000 Speaker 11: So these are horses that are two and three year 1587 01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:48,680 Speaker 11: olds and they're just not quite good enough yet to 1588 01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:51,479 Speaker 11: go to the perimutual track. So this gives them an 1589 01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:55,040 Speaker 11: opportunity to learn and grow, and they race at a 1590 01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:59,400 Speaker 11: series of races at the local county fairs across the state, 1591 01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,080 Speaker 11: and they get points and they're going to come back 1592 01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:05,080 Speaker 11: here this evening. So the top eight earners in eight 1593 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,520 Speaker 11: each category, you're going to come back for their championship 1594 01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:08,200 Speaker 11: races tonight. 1595 01:22:08,439 --> 01:22:10,960 Speaker 2: My guess is that you don't do this for the money, 1596 01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:13,360 Speaker 2: but having more money to do this with is nice. 1597 01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 2: What sort of money is in this for these horsemen, 1598 01:22:16,479 --> 01:22:18,080 Speaker 2: these families they're running a circuit like. 1599 01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 11: This, So the county fairs, they're going to race for 1600 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:24,360 Speaker 11: a thirty eight hundred dollars a race at the county Fairs, 1601 01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:26,439 Speaker 11: and then if you make it to the championship, it's 1602 01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:27,040 Speaker 11: a twenty. 1603 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:28,840 Speaker 10: Five thousand dollars perse. So they're going to get a 1604 01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:30,479 Speaker 10: little bit of payback. 1605 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 11: So your first place finisher is going to take home 1606 01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:36,200 Speaker 11: fifty percent of that, your second place finisher takes home 1607 01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 11: twelve percent, well, twenty five percent, third place takes home 1608 01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:43,759 Speaker 11: twelve percent, fourth place eight and fifth place five percent. 1609 01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 11: So it gives them a little bit of feedback to 1610 01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 11: keep them in business, yep, you know, and gives them 1611 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:53,240 Speaker 11: that opportunity not to you know, these horses are just 1612 01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:57,240 Speaker 11: like human athletes, and so you know, not everybody peaks 1613 01:22:57,520 --> 01:22:58,360 Speaker 11: at ten years old. 1614 01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:02,400 Speaker 10: Now everyone peaks at sixteen years old, So two and 1615 01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:02,960 Speaker 10: three year olds. 1616 01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,680 Speaker 11: It gives an opportunity to grow and to train and 1617 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,400 Speaker 11: to see if they're a viable raceource for the industry. 1618 01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:10,280 Speaker 2: And then again part of this is to try to 1619 01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:14,080 Speaker 2: develop more talent and give those a chance to run 1620 01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 2: in this breed. In terms of Anderson on a regular basis, 1621 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:18,839 Speaker 2: are obviously other facilities across the Midwest. 1622 01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:23,360 Speaker 11: Huh, yes, yes, Anderson is our standardbred racing facility here 1623 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:23,879 Speaker 11: in Indiana. 1624 01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:24,800 Speaker 10: It's pyramutual. 1625 01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:30,040 Speaker 11: There are other tracks across the United States, so people, 1626 01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:32,400 Speaker 11: you know, some people will go to those other tracks, 1627 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:36,719 Speaker 11: especially when Anderson's not racing. So, but you know, horse 1628 01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 11: racing has a rich heritage here in Indiana dating back 1629 01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:41,599 Speaker 11: to the you know, mid eighteen hundreds. 1630 01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:43,960 Speaker 2: So some of the county fairs and the biggest event 1631 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:46,599 Speaker 2: was the dan Patch event which literally just Friday night, yes, 1632 01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:49,320 Speaker 2: which was seen on FS one for example, to kind 1633 01:23:49,320 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 2: of get people a point of reference. And Griff and 1634 01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:54,880 Speaker 2: I were talking about this off the year earlier. Well, 1635 01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 2: thoroughbred racing is you know, attached to the Triple Crown, 1636 01:23:57,800 --> 01:23:59,720 Speaker 2: attached to Derby is kind of the more known. And 1637 01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,639 Speaker 2: again that in this state is in Shelbyville, or again 1638 01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:05,120 Speaker 2: go down to Allis Park down in the Evansville area. 1639 01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:07,400 Speaker 2: This is thought to be one of the best standard 1640 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 2: bred racing states in the country. 1641 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:10,960 Speaker 1: Correct, So we have we. 1642 01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:14,240 Speaker 11: Create breed development programs in the state, so incentive programs 1643 01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:18,120 Speaker 11: for peop to encourage people to breed horses in Indiana 1644 01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:21,320 Speaker 11: because horse racing is good for Indiana. So it's our 1645 01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:24,639 Speaker 11: last economic studies showed that horse racing is a two 1646 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:27,840 Speaker 11: billion dollar industry in Indiana. So as people are breeding 1647 01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:31,519 Speaker 11: horses here, they're buying green space, they're using veterinary services, 1648 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:34,160 Speaker 11: they're buying trucks and trailers in pay, and they contribute 1649 01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:37,680 Speaker 11: to Indiana's economy. So actually the Damn Patch Friday Night 1650 01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 11: was won by a offspring of our Indiana Breed Development program. 1651 01:24:43,800 --> 01:24:47,000 Speaker 11: So there was three Indiana horses in that race, and 1652 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:50,160 Speaker 11: so Bonus was the horse that won it.

You are the ultimate 1675 01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:55,320 Speaker 2: example of that. 1676 01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:58,920 Speaker 1: Your dad trained a horse that was in action earlier 1677 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:01,080 Speaker 1: today at his howled. 1678 01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:03,519 Speaker 11: He as birthday is today. He's eighty six years old, 1679 01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:08,439 Speaker 11: so he I grew up in this industry. My first 1680 01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:13,200 Speaker 11: job out of college was an intern with the Office 1681 01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:16,439 Speaker 11: of Commissioner of Agriculture, and they were implementing a drug 1682 01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:18,120 Speaker 11: testing program for the county fairs. 1683 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:20,679 Speaker 10: So you kind of say drug testing for the fairs. 1684 01:26:21,520 --> 01:26:22,680 Speaker 10: These forses are held to a. 1685 01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:27,160 Speaker 11: High standard, so much like Olympic athletes and professional athletes, 1686 01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:29,920 Speaker 11: they get tested. We want to make sure everything's done 1687 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:32,719 Speaker 11: on a level playing field. So that's where I started 1688 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:36,400 Speaker 11: is going out and helping with the drug testing program 1689 01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:39,519 Speaker 11: for the county fair program, and then I just never left. 1690 01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,960 Speaker 11: So I moved from the rate from the Office of 1691 01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:45,439 Speaker 11: Commissioner of Agriculture over to the Racing Commission and I 1692 01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:48,160 Speaker 11: have been there for since nineteen ninety nine. 1693 01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:50,280 Speaker 2: All right, so you get to go to various county 1694 01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 2: fairs or at least racetracks a route county fairs.

So before 1811 01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:31,920 Speaker 2: you go play at a regional event or a World 1812 01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:35,800 Speaker 2: Series event, what sort of games competition are you guys 1813 01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,680 Speaker 2: playing from the end of the high school season for 1814 01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:41,960 Speaker 2: most Memorial Day weekend until you get to those regional 1815 01:32:42,040 --> 01:32:43,240 Speaker 2: rounds and say the middle of July. 1816 01:32:44,800 --> 01:32:47,600 Speaker 12: Twelve teams this past year in our sum program and 1817 01:32:47,680 --> 01:32:50,559 Speaker 12: we just play against each other. About halfway through the season, 1818 01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:54,040 Speaker 12: we have a tryout, we pick our team, we have 1819 01:32:54,160 --> 01:32:56,920 Speaker 12: a few practices, a few scrimmage games, and that's about it. 1820 01:32:57,880 --> 01:32:59,840 Speaker 12: So we're kind of a little bit at a disadvantage. 1821 01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:02,640 Speaker 12: But it panned out this year. 1822 01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:06,600 Speaker 2: Obviously, I know that I'll get to kind of a 1823 01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:09,439 Speaker 2: bigger picture question. But I also know that maybe the 1824 01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:13,479 Speaker 2: most apples to apples comparison are most like it would 1825 01:33:13,479 --> 01:33:14,760 Speaker 2: be any side of the fact that I got to 1826 01:33:14,800 --> 01:33:16,400 Speaker 2: do with the Legion World Series for four years, So 1827 01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:18,439 Speaker 2: I kind of know that I know that it is 1828 01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:22,280 Speaker 2: more than baseball. It's baseball is the centerpiece, but it's 1829 01:33:22,360 --> 01:33:26,160 Speaker 2: life lessons, respect for country, et cetera. And I know 1830 01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:29,400 Speaker 2: in your program it's more than just baseball. So what 1831 01:33:29,720 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 2: else do you do for these young men and women 1832 01:33:32,160 --> 01:33:34,800 Speaker 2: for your softball players too, that is more than just 1833 01:33:34,880 --> 01:33:37,479 Speaker 2: baseball or softa. Well, there's sort of life skills, life lessons. 1834 01:33:37,800 --> 01:33:39,040 Speaker 2: Are you guys trying to teach here? 1835 01:33:40,120 --> 01:33:42,320 Speaker 12: Well, the main thing we're trying to do is introduce 1836 01:33:42,360 --> 01:33:45,719 Speaker 12: into the game that we don't really worry about making 1837 01:33:46,880 --> 01:33:50,240 Speaker 12: major league ball players. We worry about making major league citizens. 1838 01:33:50,240 --> 01:33:53,479 Speaker 12: That's kind of our motto and the Major leagues Baseball's motto, 1839 01:33:53,640 --> 01:33:57,759 Speaker 12: And we really focus right there just to get involved 1840 01:33:57,840 --> 01:34:01,320 Speaker 12: enough to make a difference in these kids, in these parents' lives. 1841 01:34:02,240 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 2: All right, So Regional round has been the usual stopping point. 1842 01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:09,600 Speaker 2: That was not the case this year.

So I'm gonna ask you give 1883 01:36:18,160 --> 01:36:20,479 Speaker 2: me a couple of three guys I might be hearing 1884 01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:24,000 Speaker 2: about as a college baseball player or beyond from this 1885 01:36:24,160 --> 01:36:24,719 Speaker 2: current team. 1886 01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:27,760 Speaker 12: I'd really like to talk about them all. But the 1887 01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:29,920 Speaker 12: one thing that really sticks out to me was our 1888 01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:40,160 Speaker 12: outfield of the league Diego and Mikey the right plers, 1889 01:36:40,200 --> 01:36:43,800 Speaker 12: centerfield and leftield. Not the best high school group of 1890 01:36:44,040 --> 01:36:48,240 Speaker 12: outfielders I've ever seen assembled. They were just quick, They 1891 01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:52,040 Speaker 12: could hit, they could throw. Our center fielder had four 1892 01:36:52,120 --> 01:36:56,120 Speaker 12: putouts at the plate. Amazing catcher. The catch in the 1893 01:36:56,320 --> 01:36:59,879 Speaker 12: World Series game by a right fielder, it was amazing, 1894 01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:02,160 Speaker 12: two outs. He don't catch that, he comes flying in 1895 01:37:02,520 --> 01:37:05,800 Speaker 12: complete dive forward, comes up with it, catches it. It 1896 01:37:05,960 --> 01:37:06,879 Speaker 12: was just pretty amazing. 1897 01:37:08,320 --> 01:37:09,360 Speaker 1: Again, wonderful to hear. 1898 01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:14,200 Speaker 2: Hopefully people are hearing this and thinking, all right, this 1899 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:18,360 Speaker 2: sounds like a wonderful program bringing more baseball to more places. 1900 01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:21,439 Speaker 2: And I know having been on the board in previous years, 1901 01:37:21,880 --> 01:37:24,679 Speaker 2: the whole idea is to try to fill in the gaps. 1902 01:37:24,720 --> 01:37:27,439 Speaker 2: From me, there aren't active little leagues these days as 1903 01:37:27,479 --> 01:37:30,439 Speaker 2: many as there used to be.

If someone wants 1908 01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:46,840 Speaker 2: to bring Indie RBI to their area or wants to 1909 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:51,840 Speaker 2: be involved in terms of donating time or money or both, Bob, 1910 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:53,320 Speaker 2: what's the best way to get involved. 1911 01:37:54,160 --> 01:37:56,960 Speaker 12: I get a hold of our director of Operations, our 1912 01:37:57,040 --> 01:38:00,640 Speaker 12: executive director of Michanics.

And again you heard him rattling off, 1935 01:38:54,880 --> 01:38:57,639 Speaker 2: you know the other teams they were competing with teams 1936 01:38:57,680 --> 01:39:01,559 Speaker 2: that were a part of Major league organizations, and again 1937 01:39:02,320 --> 01:39:06,640 Speaker 2: it just means you have major league funding behind you. 1938 01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:08,599 Speaker 1: You know, there have been games. 1939 01:39:09,120 --> 01:39:11,519 Speaker 2: I know the Chicago games are often played at Curtis 1940 01:39:11,600 --> 01:39:14,760 Speaker 2: Granderson Field, which I work in college athletics, so I 1941 01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:18,240 Speaker 2: know where that is. That's U c's baseball stadium in 1942 01:39:18,400 --> 01:39:22,640 Speaker 2: downtown Chicago that looks at the Chicago Skyline. I know 1943 01:39:22,760 --> 01:39:25,080 Speaker 2: they have played games, I want to say, kind of 1944 01:39:25,160 --> 01:39:27,640 Speaker 2: if you're familiar with the North side of Cincinnati, like 1945 01:39:27,760 --> 01:39:31,519 Speaker 2: the Crosley replica on the north side around two seventy five, 1946 01:39:31,520 --> 01:39:34,280 Speaker 2: I think they have played games at Great American Ballpark. 1947 01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:40,719 Speaker 2: Indy has been the largest chapter outside of a Major 1948 01:39:40,800 --> 01:39:47,120 Speaker 2: League Baseball market, and Mike Lennox, whom Bob referenced, has 1949 01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:50,559 Speaker 2: been a part of this really for thirty years this point. 1950 01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:56,080 Speaker 2: The predecessor to it being Indie RBI was Playball Indiana 1951 01:39:57,160 --> 01:39:59,920 Speaker 2: and then when the RBI program kind of got started, 1952 01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:04,280 Speaker 2: that was folded in and again the Indianapolis Indians have 1953 01:40:04,439 --> 01:40:09,080 Speaker 2: become a big part of this too, and obviously Indianapolis 1954 01:40:09,680 --> 01:40:12,200 Speaker 2: in terms of the Indians. They are minor league in 1955 01:40:12,360 --> 01:40:14,600 Speaker 2: name only in terms of the vision they play in. 1956 01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:17,840 Speaker 2: They are running about as major league of a way 1957 01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:21,360 Speaker 2: as any minor league franchise is. So not surprisingly that 1958 01:40:21,560 --> 01:40:25,439 Speaker 2: the offshoot of this is something of a similar fashion. 1959 01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:27,519 Speaker 1: But like I said earlier, what I. 1960 01:40:27,560 --> 01:40:30,080 Speaker 2: Know I'm going to be filling in the talk show 1961 01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:31,920 Speaker 2: brain never kind of turns off, even though I have 1962 01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:35,639 Speaker 2: not done a daily talk show now for gulp, sixteen years. 1963 01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:38,439 Speaker 1: As soon as I know. 1964 01:40:38,520 --> 01:40:40,120 Speaker 2: I'm I got a couple of weeks known as I'm 1965 01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:42,400 Speaker 2: gonna be doing this show about two or three days out. 1966 01:40:42,400 --> 01:40:44,080 Speaker 2: All right, who don't want to have on his guests? 1967 01:40:44,640 --> 01:40:46,519 Speaker 2: What are the major topics that we're going to talk 1968 01:40:46,640 --> 01:40:49,839 Speaker 2: talking about in this case? All right, we're here on location, 1969 01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:51,760 Speaker 2: what guests are we working in? 1970 01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:52,160 Speaker 5: You know? 1971 01:40:52,240 --> 01:40:56,160 Speaker 2: Because of that, as you hear in the background, you know, 1972 01:40:56,720 --> 01:41:00,439 Speaker 2: you hear the truck, the trucks moving around because they're 1973 01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:02,840 Speaker 2: moving some durty around here to State Fairgrounds because right 1974 01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:05,280 Speaker 2: now the racing is actually down for a little bit. 1975 01:41:05,360 --> 01:41:07,000 Speaker 2: They'll be back up and running here at the State 1976 01:41:07,040 --> 01:41:08,600 Speaker 2: Fair at about five o'clock. And I'm like, you know what, 1977 01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:12,200 Speaker 2: I would love to give a little love to the 1978 01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:14,479 Speaker 2: indie RBI kids for what they did, what they were 1979 01:41:14,479 --> 01:41:16,640 Speaker 2: able to accomplish, and it was great to kind of 1980 01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:19,439 Speaker 2: follow along with Bob's Facebook feed as to how things 1981 01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:21,960 Speaker 2: were going over the course of the last week. Three 1982 01:41:22,000 --> 01:41:24,880 Speaker 2: one seven, two, three nine, ten seventy. That is the 1983 01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:27,840 Speaker 2: telephone number again that you can tweet to me as 1984 01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:31,519 Speaker 2: well at Greg Rakestraw if you want to be a 1985 01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:34,040 Speaker 2: part of the program. We do have a guest coming 1986 01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 2: up at two thirty. I have a couple of guests. 1987 01:41:36,200 --> 01:41:38,280 Speaker 2: They're going to be stopping by at some point in 1988 01:41:38,280 --> 01:41:40,519 Speaker 2: time during a two o'clock hour, and I can tell 1989 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:47,280 Speaker 2: you jmv is in the building. Well, I'm sure he 1990 01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:50,200 Speaker 2: ran into like you know, knowing have people get him 1991 01:41:50,200 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 2: the fairgrounds. So maybe an appearance at like two o'clock 1992 01:41:53,439 --> 01:41:56,240 Speaker 2: and he has ventured away and hopefully he'll. 1993 01:41:56,080 --> 01:41:59,479 Speaker 1: Be back by three o'clock. Because I got like kid, 1994 01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:02,040 Speaker 1: pick up the I gotta get to as soon as 1995 01:42:02,080 --> 01:42:02,880 Speaker 1: the show is over with. 1996 01:42:03,400 --> 01:42:06,160 Speaker 2: We had not anybody had anybody on today from like 1997 01:42:06,280 --> 01:42:10,000 Speaker 2: a Colts Conversation standpoint, because my thought would be is 1998 01:42:10,040 --> 01:42:13,040 Speaker 2: that I could hold up my end of the Colts 1999 01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:17,320 Speaker 2: Conversation and that would be sufficient. Some of the things 2000 01:42:17,360 --> 01:42:19,960 Speaker 2: we have talked about on that standpoint is this obviously 2001 01:42:21,240 --> 01:42:24,519 Speaker 2: no practice yesterday that was a complete day off. Today 2002 01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:28,879 Speaker 2: is a day of meetings, but not of open practice. 2003 01:42:29,280 --> 01:42:31,960 Speaker 2: There is one more open practice that is tomorrow. That 2004 01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:34,640 Speaker 2: is the joint session against the Green Bay Packers. That 2005 01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:38,000 Speaker 2: is from three until five o'clock. That is your last 2006 01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:41,320 Speaker 2: chance to see the Colts at Grand Park. Training camp 2007 01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:44,720 Speaker 2: is officially closed to the public at that point in time. 2008 01:42:45,280 --> 01:42:48,920 Speaker 2: All operations after the game on Saturday moved back to 2009 01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:53,720 Speaker 2: Colts headquarters at West fifty sixth Street. Again, I don't 2010 01:42:53,720 --> 01:42:58,600 Speaker 2: think the quarterback battle is over. With my opinion, the 2011 01:42:58,760 --> 01:43:02,240 Speaker 2: job right now is Anthony Rich's. I do think it 2012 01:43:02,400 --> 01:43:06,280 Speaker 2: is a legitimate competition. I do think that can change. 2013 01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:09,400 Speaker 2: I don't think that there will be a determination as 2014 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:12,800 Speaker 2: to whom he starting quarterback will be until after we 2015 01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:17,760 Speaker 2: get through the Bengals game next Saturday. I don't know 2016 01:43:18,200 --> 01:43:22,720 Speaker 2: if we'll see Anthony and or Daniel Jones in that 2017 01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:26,000 Speaker 2: game next Saturday. Frankly, Shane Siken has not revealed his 2018 01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:28,599 Speaker 2: plans yet. We know that Jones will get the start, 2019 01:43:29,240 --> 01:43:31,439 Speaker 2: will play just a couple of series. We know that 2020 01:43:31,600 --> 01:43:35,160 Speaker 2: Richardson will play in theory a quarter and a half 2021 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:36,120 Speaker 2: against the Packers. 2022 01:43:36,560 --> 01:43:37,600 Speaker 1: What will the Packers do? 2023 01:43:38,560 --> 01:43:41,320 Speaker 2: They typically have been a team that maybe hasn't played 2024 01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:44,800 Speaker 2: their starters as much, but they played Jordan Love and 2025 01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:48,040 Speaker 2: Jordan heard his non throwing thumb. He is out for 2026 01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:50,760 Speaker 2: the remain of the preseason. We will not see him 2027 01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:55,839 Speaker 2: on Saturday. We are scheduled to see the Colts Ones 2028 01:43:56,840 --> 01:43:59,600 Speaker 2: for the first quarter. Now do I think there's some 2029 01:43:59,680 --> 01:44:00,600 Speaker 2: excceps options to that? 2030 01:44:01,600 --> 01:44:01,800 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2031 01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:02,000 Speaker 5: I do. 2032 01:44:02,640 --> 01:44:04,479 Speaker 2: First of all, there are the guys that have been 2033 01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:10,120 Speaker 2: dinged up at practice and that we haven't seen. I 2034 01:44:10,280 --> 01:44:12,120 Speaker 2: was going to say, in no particular order, in the 2035 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:17,519 Speaker 2: order of me simply remembering who it is. Kenny Moore 2036 01:44:17,560 --> 01:44:20,759 Speaker 2: got hurt on Sunday. I doubt we see him. Alec 2037 01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:23,360 Speaker 2: Pierce got hurt on Sunday. I doubt we see him. 2038 01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:26,599 Speaker 2: We haven't seen carlis all Camp. I doubt we see him. 2039 01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:29,879 Speaker 2: Khalil Herbert got hurt late in the game on Thursday. 2040 01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:32,760 Speaker 2: He has not practiced since that time. I doubt we 2041 01:44:32,840 --> 01:44:35,519 Speaker 2: see him. You'd say the same for DJ Montgomery. Dj 2042 01:44:35,600 --> 01:44:38,000 Speaker 2: Montgomery is going to make the practice squad at best. 2043 01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:39,559 Speaker 2: So let me kind of push him with the side, 2044 01:44:39,920 --> 01:44:42,280 Speaker 2: have not seen Nick Cross, have not seen Quity pay 2045 01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:45,000 Speaker 2: in terms of active practice. So there are some several 2046 01:44:45,040 --> 01:44:47,320 Speaker 2: guys that are starters that I don't think you are 2047 01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:51,320 Speaker 2: likely that you are going to see those players. There 2048 01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:55,720 Speaker 2: are some others that could be sad as well, Like 2049 01:44:56,000 --> 01:44:58,240 Speaker 2: I'm not sure need to see a lot of DeForest Buckner. 2050 01:44:59,040 --> 01:44:59,680 Speaker 1: I am. 2051 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:01,280 Speaker 2: I'm not sure that I need to see a lot 2052 01:45:01,320 --> 01:45:03,760 Speaker 2: of Grover Stewart. I don't think I need to see 2053 01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:07,680 Speaker 2: a lot of Jonathan Taylor. To see certain guys, to 2054 01:45:07,840 --> 01:45:11,000 Speaker 2: give Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones both reps with the 2055 01:45:11,080 --> 01:45:15,240 Speaker 2: ones would be nice. Maybe for that reason you see 2056 01:45:15,400 --> 01:45:19,920 Speaker 2: JT for a series. But frankly, he has been at 2057 01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:24,600 Speaker 2: practice every day. You will see him get reps in 2058 01:45:24,760 --> 01:45:28,320 Speaker 2: practice if you're out there against the Packers tomorrow. So 2059 01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:30,840 Speaker 2: there are certain guys that, again I think have earned 2060 01:45:30,920 --> 01:45:34,599 Speaker 2: the veteran status. I'm not sure if we see him. 2061 01:45:36,280 --> 01:45:38,120 Speaker 1: Zaire Franklin has been back at practice, has been a 2062 01:45:38,200 --> 01:45:43,040 Speaker 1: full participant. You know exactly what you have in Zaire. 2063 01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:47,320 Speaker 2: He's been the leading tackler in the National Football League 2064 01:45:47,960 --> 01:45:51,320 Speaker 2: each of the last three years. Maybe he might say, hey, 2065 01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:52,920 Speaker 2: give me a series just so I can kind of 2066 01:45:52,960 --> 01:45:55,360 Speaker 2: have the live fire element of it. There's not a 2067 01:45:55,439 --> 01:45:59,200 Speaker 2: lot you need to see from him, but in theory 2068 01:46:00,240 --> 01:46:03,800 Speaker 2: you will see more of those guys, because really, on 2069 01:46:03,960 --> 01:46:09,040 Speaker 2: Thursday in Baltimore, you saw Gonzalbs, you saw BORDERLINI, you 2070 01:46:09,160 --> 01:46:12,680 Speaker 2: saw Warren, you briefly saw Quity Pay and again the 2071 01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:15,800 Speaker 2: defensive end position is a little bit different. You know, 2072 01:46:16,080 --> 01:46:20,240 Speaker 2: you kind of see a pitching rotation of those guys. 2073 01:46:20,760 --> 01:46:24,040 Speaker 2: And the fact that JT. Twoey Molowaw by the way, 2074 01:46:24,080 --> 01:46:25,160 Speaker 2: I'm getting the pot where I can say that we 2075 01:46:25,360 --> 01:46:26,040 Speaker 2: looking at phonetically. 2076 01:46:26,080 --> 01:46:27,320 Speaker 1: How about that, hey, hey, good for me. 2077 01:46:28,680 --> 01:46:30,439 Speaker 2: The fact that he was playing deep into that game 2078 01:46:31,120 --> 01:46:33,800 Speaker 2: and that he was to me impressive in that game 2079 01:46:34,680 --> 01:46:39,640 Speaker 2: honestly tells me a lot. Like tells me that the 2080 01:46:39,760 --> 01:46:42,160 Speaker 2: Colts have built up some depth in terms of the 2081 01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:45,880 Speaker 2: pass rusher position. And like I said earlier, one thing 2082 01:46:45,960 --> 01:46:49,160 Speaker 2: that has been constant in terms of those practices out 2083 01:46:49,200 --> 01:46:52,479 Speaker 2: at Graham Park. I was not in Baltimore for the practice. 2084 01:46:52,520 --> 01:46:54,400 Speaker 2: I was there for the game. I flew in the 2085 01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:56,880 Speaker 2: next day. I got there literally like a week ago 2086 01:46:56,960 --> 01:47:02,320 Speaker 2: at this point. But by all accounts, Colts did well 2087 01:47:02,360 --> 01:47:06,120 Speaker 2: against the Ravens in the practice session when it was 2088 01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:13,920 Speaker 2: ones versus ones. We'll see if that repeats itself against 2089 01:47:13,960 --> 01:47:19,000 Speaker 2: the Packers tomorrow. But if the Colts can continue to 2090 01:47:19,160 --> 01:47:24,040 Speaker 2: get pressure in the backfield, that changes the scope of everything, 2091 01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:28,840 Speaker 2: of everything that they want to do defensively, and of 2092 01:47:29,040 --> 01:47:33,320 Speaker 2: all of the different aspects elements of this team coming 2093 01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:35,800 Speaker 2: out of camp. Like I said, it's unique in the 2094 01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:39,720 Speaker 2: fact there is the one big, huge, obvious battle at 2095 01:47:39,760 --> 01:47:43,640 Speaker 2: the quarterback position. Other than that, like a lot of 2096 01:47:43,720 --> 01:47:49,080 Speaker 2: the other positional battles are being dictated by injuries. You know, 2097 01:47:49,120 --> 01:47:52,400 Speaker 2: there's a battle of a linebacker spot because the guy 2098 01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:54,200 Speaker 2: that was kind of penciling there in car Lives has 2099 01:47:54,200 --> 01:47:56,840 Speaker 2: been hurt. There's a battle in a cornerback spot because 2100 01:47:56,840 --> 01:47:58,000 Speaker 2: the guy that you're going to give the job to 2101 01:47:58,040 --> 01:48:00,560 Speaker 2: the third round pick tears his ACL a Tuesday in 2102 01:48:00,720 --> 01:48:03,120 Speaker 2: Justin Wally and he will not play a single down 2103 01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:06,840 Speaker 2: for you this season. Other than that, I got a 2104 01:48:06,840 --> 01:48:09,800 Speaker 2: pretty good handle in whom the Colts starters will be. 2105 01:48:10,840 --> 01:48:14,960 Speaker 2: But if there is another overarching theme from watching practice 2106 01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:19,439 Speaker 2: on a day by day basis in Westfield, that theme 2107 01:48:19,520 --> 01:48:24,800 Speaker 2: would be as follows. Either the Colts offensive line has 2108 01:48:24,840 --> 01:48:32,920 Speaker 2: had some struggles, or the Colts defensive line maybe is 2109 01:48:33,000 --> 01:48:36,880 Speaker 2: better than we have seen. And again, I don't know 2110 01:48:36,960 --> 01:48:42,000 Speaker 2: if it's going to be one dominant player. You hope 2111 01:48:42,040 --> 01:48:44,320 Speaker 2: lay out to Latu Pops in year number one or 2112 01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:47,360 Speaker 2: year number two makes that first year to second year jump. 2113 01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:51,840 Speaker 2: You hope the JT Twoey Mololau can have impact as 2114 01:48:51,840 --> 01:48:56,519 Speaker 2: a rookie. You hope that Samson Ebucom can bounce back 2115 01:48:56,560 --> 01:48:57,960 Speaker 2: to his form of twenty three where had one of 2116 01:48:58,000 --> 01:49:00,439 Speaker 2: the best years of his career and then we didn't 2117 01:49:00,439 --> 01:49:01,519 Speaker 2: see him in twenty four, so he got. 2118 01:49:01,560 --> 01:49:03,439 Speaker 1: Hurt like the second day of practice. 2119 01:49:04,280 --> 01:49:06,280 Speaker 2: You know, Quitty pay is now up against it being 2120 01:49:06,320 --> 01:49:09,840 Speaker 2: in year number five as a twenty twenty one, you know, 2121 01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:13,040 Speaker 2: first round pick. And I saw this earlier in Camp two, 2122 01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:16,080 Speaker 2: and I'm curious to see if we see this on 2123 01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:20,480 Speaker 2: a semi regular basis. They would have formations and rotations 2124 01:49:20,520 --> 01:49:23,960 Speaker 2: defensively where Neville Gallimore, who was a veterani's played with 2125 01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:26,880 Speaker 2: the Cowboys and Rams would play at defensive tackle spot 2126 01:49:27,280 --> 01:49:32,280 Speaker 2: and DeForest Buckner would bounce outside. Again, you hope you 2127 01:49:32,400 --> 01:49:34,519 Speaker 2: get a flash or a pop from one or two 2128 01:49:34,560 --> 01:49:37,080 Speaker 2: of those guys, But I kind of getting the feeling 2129 01:49:37,120 --> 01:49:39,960 Speaker 2: from a defensive end standpoint, it is going to be 2130 01:49:40,080 --> 01:49:42,200 Speaker 2: in the aggregate for this team, and that's okay. 2131 01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:46,320 Speaker 1: I do think this team has depth in terms of 2132 01:49:46,400 --> 01:49:50,160 Speaker 1: pass rush. But knowing you have a coordinator at Luann 2133 01:49:50,240 --> 01:49:53,479 Speaker 1: Arumo who is going to be far more aggressive than 2134 01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:57,480 Speaker 1: you saw from Gus Bradley than you saw for Matt Eberflus, 2135 01:49:57,960 --> 01:50:01,960 Speaker 1: this will be a team that gets after it, and 2136 01:50:02,120 --> 01:50:05,800 Speaker 1: I think they've got the personnell to get after it 2137 01:50:06,280 --> 01:50:09,599 Speaker 1: as well. We're getting after it at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Again, 2138 01:50:09,920 --> 01:50:14,560 Speaker 1: racing activity is silent until five o'clock, but it's the 2139 01:50:14,640 --> 01:50:16,839 Speaker 1: State Fair. It's never that silent. 2140 01:50:17,080 --> 01:50:19,360 Speaker 2: And believe me, it's more than just the bulldozers that 2141 01:50:19,479 --> 01:50:23,880 Speaker 2: are apparently working on the parking area right in front 2142 01:50:23,920 --> 01:50:26,519 Speaker 2: of the track in front of us. So I know 2143 01:50:26,600 --> 01:50:29,719 Speaker 2: you're kind of hearing a little bit of beeping and banging, 2144 01:50:29,920 --> 01:50:31,360 Speaker 2: so to speak. While we're on the air. 2145 01:50:32,120 --> 01:50:33,000 Speaker 1: Hey, just a. 2146 01:50:33,040 --> 01:50:35,720 Speaker 2: Reminder that we are live at on site today. We're 2147 01:50:35,720 --> 01:50:38,599 Speaker 2: at the State Fairgrounds and after I am done, JMB 2148 01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:41,680 Speaker 2: will be here from three until six. Another couple of 2149 01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:44,200 Speaker 2: guests lined up. We'll keep knocking them down when we 2150 01:50:44,360 --> 01:50:46,800 Speaker 2: come back on ninety three to five and one seven 2151 01:50:46,800 --> 01:50:51,639 Speaker 2: to five to fan. My day at the Indiana State 2152 01:50:51,760 --> 01:50:55,920 Speaker 2: Fair is starting to wind down. Jmb's day at the 2153 01:50:55,960 --> 01:50:58,280 Speaker 2: State Fair is just about to get started. He will 2154 01:50:58,320 --> 01:51:02,160 Speaker 2: be here beginning at three o'clock. He is in the building. 2155 01:51:02,240 --> 01:51:05,439 Speaker 2: He is signing autographs next to the dairy bar. I'm 2156 01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:08,680 Speaker 2: sure as we speak now, the reason we are here. 2157 01:51:08,720 --> 01:51:10,559 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a million things going up to Stay Fair. 2158 01:51:10,600 --> 01:51:12,320 Speaker 2: Like last we did a show here like I was 2159 01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:14,800 Speaker 2: filling in for John's or by the concert stage, like 2160 01:51:14,920 --> 01:51:16,880 Speaker 2: Keanu Reeves is doing a sound check. People were going 2161 01:51:16,960 --> 01:51:21,320 Speaker 2: crazy today. The stars are the Standard Bread horses. There 2162 01:51:21,439 --> 01:51:24,880 Speaker 2: was racing going on earlier in the program. There is 2163 01:51:25,160 --> 01:51:28,920 Speaker 2: another session coming up at five o'clock. And again these 2164 01:51:28,960 --> 01:51:31,040 Speaker 2: are what you call the trotters. These are the Indiana 2165 01:51:31,160 --> 01:51:33,920 Speaker 2: Standard Bred horses. And we've talked a couple of good 2166 01:51:33,960 --> 01:51:37,400 Speaker 2: people in terms of with the Indiana Standard Bread Association. 2167 01:51:37,920 --> 01:51:40,839 Speaker 2: Now we're talking to somebody that is involved with training 2168 01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:43,080 Speaker 2: these horses and a big event coming up at the 2169 01:51:43,120 --> 01:51:45,519 Speaker 2: Fairgrounds coming up this fall as well. That is Jamie 2170 01:51:45,560 --> 01:51:47,840 Speaker 2: macomber that joins us. Now, Hello, Jamie, how are you Hi, 2171 01:51:48,080 --> 01:51:48,439 Speaker 2: I'm good. 2172 01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:48,680 Speaker 13: Thank you. 2173 01:51:48,760 --> 01:51:49,519 Speaker 1: How are you good? 2174 01:51:50,360 --> 01:51:54,760 Speaker 2: Thirty five horses in the macomber family stables at this point, Yes, 2175 01:51:55,240 --> 01:51:56,679 Speaker 2: all right. Tell me how you got in the business. 2176 01:51:56,960 --> 01:51:59,519 Speaker 14: Oh, my parents were in the business. I swore I 2177 01:51:59,560 --> 01:52:01,160 Speaker 14: wasn't going to do it. I went to college, I 2178 01:52:01,240 --> 01:52:04,240 Speaker 14: got a degree. I went to the office for six years. 2179 01:52:04,320 --> 01:52:06,960 Speaker 14: And let me tell you, from being quote born in 2180 01:52:07,040 --> 01:52:10,280 Speaker 14: a barn to going to the office was quite a 2181 01:52:10,400 --> 01:52:14,200 Speaker 14: dramatic change for me. It took one phone call that said, Jamie, 2182 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,400 Speaker 14: come train for me. Okay, where do you want me? 2183 01:52:18,400 --> 01:52:21,000 Speaker 14: And I left the office and went to training horses. 2184 01:52:21,360 --> 01:52:24,240 Speaker 1: What is it like training a standardbred horse versus a 2185 01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:25,280 Speaker 1: Thoroughbred horse? 2186 01:52:25,400 --> 01:52:26,720 Speaker 13: Oh, there's so many differences. 2187 01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:29,519 Speaker 14: I've never trained a thoroughbred horse, but my mother has, 2188 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:32,200 Speaker 14: so I do have a little bit of reference there. 2189 01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:37,479 Speaker 14: The thoroughbreds, the jockey sits on top of them and 2190 01:52:37,720 --> 01:52:41,240 Speaker 14: they run. They are gallopers. So the standard bread you 2191 01:52:41,360 --> 01:52:43,719 Speaker 14: sit in a race bike behind them or a cart 2192 01:52:44,880 --> 01:52:47,760 Speaker 14: as what everybody calls it. You sit in that behind them, 2193 01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:51,719 Speaker 14: and our horses are gated, so you're going thirty plus 2194 01:52:51,840 --> 01:52:54,880 Speaker 14: miles an hour on a gate. Every horse trots, so 2195 01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:57,160 Speaker 14: we're going thirty miles an hour on a trot and 2196 01:52:57,240 --> 01:52:59,639 Speaker 14: then the other gate is a pace. It's a lateral gate, 2197 01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:01,920 Speaker 14: the right side and the left side of the horses 2198 01:53:01,920 --> 01:53:05,000 Speaker 14: going forward and backward at the same time, and so 2199 01:53:05,160 --> 01:53:08,760 Speaker 14: we're going those are faster than trotter's so you go 2200 01:53:08,840 --> 01:53:10,040 Speaker 14: pretty fast with a pacer. 2201 01:53:10,160 --> 01:53:12,439 Speaker 2: I've seen that that I noticed as I was walking 2202 01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:15,560 Speaker 2: in and I've spent more time around thoroughbreds, but I 2203 01:53:15,640 --> 01:53:18,280 Speaker 2: spent time around standard reds as well. And literally one 2204 01:53:18,320 --> 01:53:19,800 Speaker 2: of the first races the day was Havings. I was 2205 01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:22,400 Speaker 2: walking to the grand stand and as I'm walking to 2206 01:53:22,600 --> 01:53:26,040 Speaker 2: get to the grand stand, I noticed, I'm like, man, 2207 01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 2: that that side car obviously the truck that kind of 2208 01:53:29,280 --> 01:53:30,679 Speaker 2: is the starting game, and then it kind of runs 2209 01:53:30,720 --> 01:53:32,280 Speaker 2: behind the horses as the race goes. 2210 01:53:32,080 --> 01:53:34,760 Speaker 1: Along, I guess moving a pretty good clip. These horses 2211 01:53:35,479 --> 01:53:36,680 Speaker 1: are going at a pretty good speed here. 2212 01:53:36,880 --> 01:53:40,479 Speaker 14: Yeah, So for the car when the car leaves them, 2213 01:53:40,520 --> 01:53:42,439 Speaker 14: I'm going to guess the car's going forty to forty 2214 01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:44,240 Speaker 14: five miles an hour to get out of their way, right, 2215 01:53:44,640 --> 01:53:47,400 Speaker 14: So the horses are lined up behind it, the gate 2216 01:53:47,520 --> 01:53:49,439 Speaker 14: is opened up across the track, and that car's got 2217 01:53:49,520 --> 01:53:51,720 Speaker 14: to get out of the way and the horse's mac 2218 01:53:51,800 --> 01:53:55,439 Speaker 14: speed not here at the fairgrounds typically, but you know, 2219 01:53:55,479 --> 01:53:57,839 Speaker 14: when you're at a racetrack like Hoosir Park or whatnot, 2220 01:53:58,240 --> 01:54:02,519 Speaker 14: they're going thirty miles in hour plus, so like up 2221 01:54:02,560 --> 01:54:04,160 Speaker 14: to thirty two thirty three miles an hour. 2222 01:54:04,680 --> 01:54:06,599 Speaker 2: One of the things that we have learned and talked 2223 01:54:06,600 --> 01:54:09,400 Speaker 2: about today when both Tony and Jessica ron with us 2224 01:54:09,439 --> 01:54:14,080 Speaker 2: earlier is the fact that this facility and other kind 2225 01:54:14,120 --> 01:54:18,040 Speaker 2: of county fairgrounds facilities, those are meant to be, you know, 2226 01:54:18,160 --> 01:54:21,280 Speaker 2: places where you can develop horses, to get them to 2227 01:54:21,360 --> 01:54:24,479 Speaker 2: a Hoo'sier Park, to get them to other facilities across 2228 01:54:24,560 --> 01:54:26,720 Speaker 2: the country, to aspire to be at a place like 2229 01:54:26,800 --> 01:54:30,679 Speaker 2: the Hambletonian in New Jersey. And so how much running 2230 01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:32,440 Speaker 2: at Who's Your Park do you do? How much running 2231 01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:34,360 Speaker 2: do you do in county fairgrounds? With the worst is 2232 01:54:34,360 --> 01:54:35,680 Speaker 2: that you guys train, Oh. 2233 01:54:35,600 --> 01:54:39,240 Speaker 14: Good, so we don't race at county fairs. I learned 2234 01:54:39,240 --> 01:54:43,680 Speaker 14: really quick. I'm not a county fair trainer. So they're 2235 01:54:43,720 --> 01:54:46,000 Speaker 14: smaller tracks. The racetrack at Who's Your Park is a 2236 01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:48,800 Speaker 14: seven eight mile track. This is the only fair track 2237 01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:51,640 Speaker 14: in the state of Indiana that's a mile Yeah, it 2238 01:54:51,800 --> 01:54:54,240 Speaker 14: was meant to be a racetrack, you know, to be 2239 01:54:54,720 --> 01:54:57,240 Speaker 14: Who's your Park or whatnot. So it's an advantage for 2240 01:54:57,360 --> 01:54:59,800 Speaker 14: these young horses to come here and race on this 2241 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:01,760 Speaker 14: because you get to go a little bit faster. So 2242 01:55:02,160 --> 01:55:04,560 Speaker 14: all of the fair tracks in the state of Indiana 2243 01:55:04,600 --> 01:55:07,200 Speaker 14: are half mile tracks, so the turns are tighter. 2244 01:55:07,840 --> 01:55:11,080 Speaker 13: You have to train your horse to do that, and 2245 01:55:11,200 --> 01:55:12,920 Speaker 13: I don't I train it. Who's your park. It's a 2246 01:55:12,960 --> 01:55:13,800 Speaker 13: seven eighth mile track. 2247 01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:16,960 Speaker 14: I can't train my horses to go thirty miles an 2248 01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:18,480 Speaker 14: hour around those tight turns. 2249 01:55:18,720 --> 01:55:20,440 Speaker 2: So we have learned Jamie likes a big stage. That 2250 01:55:20,560 --> 01:55:23,160 Speaker 2: will learned, yes, with the course of the conversation. David 2251 01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:26,200 Speaker 2: macomber joining us here, Greg Reraigstroyan for j Query. We're 2252 01:55:26,240 --> 01:55:28,760 Speaker 2: live at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. And again the Governor's 2253 01:55:28,800 --> 01:55:32,200 Speaker 2: Cup races resume at five o'clock today and John will 2254 01:55:32,200 --> 01:55:33,360 Speaker 2: be able to tell you about it. The ninety three 2255 01:55:33,400 --> 01:55:35,440 Speaker 2: five and one oh seven five. The fan part of 2256 01:55:35,520 --> 01:55:38,960 Speaker 2: having you on. So let's talk about a major event 2257 01:55:39,080 --> 01:55:42,080 Speaker 2: in your business, the horse sale that comes up this fall. 2258 01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:42,760 Speaker 1: Tell us about it. 2259 01:55:42,960 --> 01:55:45,480 Speaker 14: Yes, So the horseship is the horse sale is under 2260 01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:49,640 Speaker 14: new ownership this year and we renamed the sale the 2261 01:55:49,840 --> 01:55:53,320 Speaker 14: Midwest Standardbred Horse Sale. And we named it the Midwest 2262 01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:55,880 Speaker 14: because we feel as an industry that. 2263 01:55:55,960 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 13: The money's coming back to the Midwest. 2264 01:55:58,120 --> 01:56:01,080 Speaker 14: So the sale has always been focused on just horses 2265 01:56:01,120 --> 01:56:02,320 Speaker 14: bread in the state of Indiana. 2266 01:56:02,800 --> 01:56:03,920 Speaker 13: This year we opened it up. 2267 01:56:04,040 --> 01:56:08,560 Speaker 14: We allow any sired or bread horse into our horse 2268 01:56:08,640 --> 01:56:11,640 Speaker 14: sale standard Bread, and so we call it the Midwest 2269 01:56:11,640 --> 01:56:14,440 Speaker 14: Standardbred Horse Sale. We have year and it's all yearlings 2270 01:56:15,160 --> 01:56:18,280 Speaker 14: for two days. It's all yearlings, so all babies that 2271 01:56:18,360 --> 01:56:23,440 Speaker 14: are bred within the state, within Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, New. 2272 01:56:23,360 --> 01:56:26,640 Speaker 13: York, New Jersey. We have one Ontario Bread coming from Canada. 2273 01:56:26,760 --> 01:56:30,600 Speaker 2: I think again, it's apples to oranges here, so to speak. 2274 01:56:30,920 --> 01:56:32,960 Speaker 2: But if you tell the average sports fanning a horse sale, 2275 01:56:33,000 --> 01:56:35,520 Speaker 2: maybe they think of Keenland down in Lexington.

There's this wonderful building down to our left 2425 02:02:39,880 --> 02:02:41,760 Speaker 2: as you and I are sitting here, down kind of 2426 02:02:41,800 --> 02:02:44,880 Speaker 2: the main road here of the state fair grounds, and 2427 02:02:45,000 --> 02:02:47,480 Speaker 2: it's called the Swine Barn. That's typically where all the 2428 02:02:47,520 --> 02:02:50,120 Speaker 2: pigs would be. But there are there are show horses, 2429 02:02:50,160 --> 02:02:53,000 Speaker 2: there are show cows, there are sheep. The whole point 2430 02:02:53,040 --> 02:02:56,960 Speaker 2: of the Indiana State Fair is part of the agricultural 2431 02:02:57,080 --> 02:03:00,640 Speaker 2: aspect of okay, Indiana.

The whole 2434 02:03:08,160 --> 02:03:10,520 Speaker 2: point of the state fair is that there are ninety 2435 02:03:10,600 --> 02:03:14,400 Speaker 2: two county fairs, ninety two counties, okay of Indiana. And 2436 02:03:14,520 --> 02:03:17,000 Speaker 2: if you are having like a show horse or a 2437 02:03:17,080 --> 02:03:20,200 Speaker 2: show animal, whatever the case may be.
