1
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: Line from Ball Heartland and the Crossroads of America.

2
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: It's Tony Katz today. When an NFL.

3
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 1: Team is considering the idea of moving from one place

4
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: to another, it's national news. It just is because as

5
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: much as we might decry what it costs to build

6
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: a stadium and why are the people on the hook

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: and the tax increase here in the hospitality tax there

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: pro teams define cities and the truth is, cities love it.

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: The people who live in the cities love it. It's

10
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: that part is not really any level of debate. Tony Katz.

11
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: Tony Kats say, good to be here, good to be

12
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,599
Speaker 1: with you. And there's a couple of things going on

13
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL regarding this exact thing. You've got the

14
00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: Paul Allen estate that is looking to sell the Seattle Seahawks,

15
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: which is kind of crazy. They just won a Super Bowl.

16
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: Paul Allen passed away in twenty eighteen, and so now they're.

17
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: Going down this road.

18
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: Lord only knows what this team is now worth now

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: that they've got a Super Bowl, another Super Bowl championship

20
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: under their belt. And then the story that's been consuming

21
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: the Midwest is the idea of the Chicago Bears moving

22
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: to a place called Hammond, Indiana, which took a.

23
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 2: Huge step forward today.

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,839
Speaker 1: Massive they've been trying to create a better deal with Illinois,

25
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: try to move to Arlington Heights. Illinois has basically said, yeah,

26
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: we'll get to when we get to it. And the

27
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: Bears said, all.

28
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 2: Right, we'll call your bluff.

29
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: Hey, Indiana, what do you think in Indiana to their credit,

30
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: said what, we think a lot of things.

31
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 2: Here we go and they didn't give up the farm.

32
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: And these cities have been putting out their own plans

33
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: fighting for it, and today the Chicago Bears put out

34
00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: a statement saying that after the State of Indiana pasta

35
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: a piece of legislation center Field twenty seven, the Bear said, quote,

36
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: we are committed to finishing the remaining site specific necessary

37
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: due diligence to support our vision to build a world

38
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: class stadium near the Wolf Lake area in Hammond, Indiana.

39
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 2: This is not a fatal company, it's.

40
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: Not a done deal, but holy cow, that's a step forward.

41
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 2: JMV joins me right now.

42
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: He is the voice of sports in Indiana ninety three

43
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: five one oh seven five the Fan, one of the

44
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: top twenty afternoon sports hosts in America. This is nutty.

45
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: If you live in Indiana, it's a nutty year. Possibly,

46
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: if you live in Chicago, you're a you're a fan,

47
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: right You're you're a Bears fan. Do you care where

48
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: this team actually plays?

49
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 3: I would think that most, especially those up in the

50
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,080
Speaker 3: northern suburbs, were a lot of that money lie I

51
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 3: probably would have an issue with it because they like

52
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 3: going to games and it's going to make the process

53
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 3: of getting there a little bit more. And those that

54
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: think that we are here in the state of Indiana

55
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 3: hillbilly state, regardless of where we're located in this state,

56
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 3: and you don't want to be a part of that,

57
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: and you're Illinois and you're above it all, there are

58
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 3: going to be some of those fans that are going

59
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: to feel that way, I'm assuming, but this just seems

60
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 3: like a badminton match between the state of Illinois and

61
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: the Bears right now, where the Bears are getting this

62
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 3: deal from Indiana. And it's funny. I thought about this, Tony,

63
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 3: and this would be a great question for you because

64
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 3: you're so deeply rooted in politics and very smart and

65
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: savvy about this. I know, going back with the Colts,

66
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 3: you just simply don't want to be running the state

67
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 3: or part of running the state and losing an NFL team,

68
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: especially then and absolutely magnified now. And I'm assuming that

69
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 3: if you're in the state of Indiana, you're looking at it.

70
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 3: If you're Mike Moron, you don't want to lose this opportunity,

71
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 3: even if it is up and much close to Chicago.

72
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: And if you're Illinois, you want to be you know,

73
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 3: the the the leaders of that state right now and

74
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 3: lose the Bears to a different state. And I just

75
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 3: think that's what the NFL means to the political ramifications

76
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 3: of both Indiana and Illinois and really throughout the United States.

77
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 3: Just how mammoth that is right now where you know,

78
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: you go to these lengths to get it, even if

79
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: it's not you know, down here with us, and you

80
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 3: already have one in the Colts, but you also don't

81
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 3: want to lose that opportunity. If you're Indiana, you did

82
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: in the past of the Colts, you don't right now.

83
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: I'm assuming with the Bears, and you know, now Illinois

84
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 3: is count of the Illinois is kind of on the

85
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 3: path in this case to maybe lose it. So I

86
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 3: just don't think you ever want to be a part

87
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 3: of that leadership in your state to lose something. So

88
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 3: Mammoth as an NFL franchise.

89
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: And we should be clear, it is Mammoth, and there

90
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: is I think a hit that takes place. And that's

91
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: why when I look at this possibility of a move,

92
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 1: the NFL is protective.

93
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 4: Man.

94
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,799
Speaker 1: The NFL doesn't want players taking their helmets off because

95
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: it's not about the player, it's about the NFL. And

96
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: so does a move does that do they concern themselves

97
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: with how this affects the brand or do they say, hey,

98
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: this is a great financial opportunity, and new stadiums always

99
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: bring about more opportunity, go for it, and maybe it

100
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: don't encourage even more stadium growth to take place in

101
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: the country.

102
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 3: Well, it's funny too, because most of new stadiums Tony

103
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 3: end up getting a super Bowl. That's part of the criteria.

104
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 3: We saw that here when Lucas Royle Stadium was built

105
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 3: not very long after, Indianapolis got what many people thought

106
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 3: would never happen, a super Bowl here. It's probably one

107
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 3: and done here. But now instead of Indiana, it's going

108
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 3: to have the opportunity to probably at some point in time.

109
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: Assuming this is going to be a close stadium. I

110
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: don't really know what the looks of the stadium is

111
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 3: going to look like at wolf Lake up there, but

112
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's going to be something that's going to

113
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 3: have a retractable roof, so ultimately the area can host

114
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 3: a super Bowl. That is all also something that's going

115
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 3: to come down the road too, because most of these

116
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 3: new stadiums, if not old Tony, of these new stadiums

117
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 3: that are built, are going to come equipped with the

118
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 3: option of hosting a super Bowl, which all would want

119
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 3: at some point, and I'm assuming this would be the

120
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 3: case in with West Indiana too.

121
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 1: Talking to JMV he is the voice of sports in

122
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: Indiana ninety three five one seventy five the fan. Certainly,

123
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 1: I have not heard from any Bears players about this,

124
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: because this is still.

125
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:27,919
Speaker 2: A little bit in the ether.

126
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: Anybody anybody saying anything, anybody popping off anywhere, any cryptic

127
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: Instagram kind of posts about the movie.

128
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: I do wonder, Tony, you and I had thought about

129
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 3: this before. I kind of wonder how carly ERSA. Gordon

130
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 3: and ownership of the Colts feel about this. You'll feel

131
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 3: about you know, the government of the state of Indiana

132
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 3: being so flirtatious, if that's a good word. With this

133
00:06:54,960 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 3: in mind, with a competing NFL team like I do

134
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 3: kind of wonder. I don't know for sure. I can

135
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 3: only guess it probably doesn't make them feel what great.

136
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: But I will say this, Tony, You've had for a

137
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 3: long period of time in Easter rup for New Jersey,

138
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 3: both the Jets and the Giants being a part of that,

139
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 3: and of course they're New York franchises in New Jersey.

140
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: I know this is not all the same here, but

141
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 3: this is not unprecedented territory. It just is. Considering it's

142
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 3: the state of Indiana versus the state of Illinois. I

143
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 3: think we all know this to be true. Those in

144
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 3: the state of Illinois look like and feel like they're

145
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 3: so much further above what we are in the state

146
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 3: of Indiana. I think that's probably why this hits home

147
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 3: and burns a little bit more than anything else, Because

148
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 3: folks in Illinois are saying, Wow, you're going to lose

149
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 3: our NFL franchise, our historic NFL franchise, the Bears to

150
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 3: the state of Indiana. That's probably tough for them to compartmentalize,

151
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: right now Tony, to be quite honest, but there's probably

152
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 3: more ego than I guess anything else. But ultimately, when

153
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: it gets built and if you have a lot more options,

154
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 3: and for some that are Bears fans Tony, it's going

155
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 3: to be a lot easier to get there. It's just

156
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 3: not going to be for the northern suburbs I'm assuming

157
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 3: of Chicago where all the wealth is. But you're going

158
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: to see a growth in northwest Indiana, you know, in

159
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 3: and around him and I'm assuming you're thinking about the

160
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 3: players and those that work in the organization are probably

161
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: going to want to live in and around that area

162
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: and not have to commute, you know, from the northern

163
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 3: suburbs of Chicago. So it's going to meet a lot

164
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 3: for that particular area. And I'm sure that's exactly how

165
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 3: Indiana leadership right now government are looking at it. An

166
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 3: opportunity that is there, even if it doesn't directly involve

167
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 3: us here in central Indiana. You know, that's something that

168
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 3: is probably going to be worthy of discussion for years

169
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 3: to come. As far as you know, Mike Brown and

170
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 3: his legacy and those lawmakers and their legacy are in

171
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 3: the state of Indiana.

172
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 2: Talking to JMV.

173
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: He is the voice of sports in Indiana ninety three

174
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: five one A seven to five and the fan. Let's

175
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: let's move it off of this possible move and let's

176
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: move it into the NBA where we have the All

177
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: Star break has come and gone, and now we have

178
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: a second half of a season to take a look at.

179
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 2: Who are the contenders.

180
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,599
Speaker 1: Who has the opportunity to be seen once again in

181
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: the playoffs. I'm going to assume we're going to see

182
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: Oklahoma back in those playoffs. Who else are you looking at?

183
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,719
Speaker 3: Well, one of your favorite films, if I believe, is

184
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 3: The Usual Suspects right from the nineteen nineties, and this

185
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 3: is kind of like the Usual Suspects right here. You

186
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 3: look at Okay see for sure, you know Houston is

187
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 3: going to be in the mix out there, Denver and

188
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: Jokich will be in the mix out out west, and

189
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 3: you know you're going to have here New York Knicks

190
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: Boston even without Jason Tatum's having a really good season,

191
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 3: so you know the Celtics are going to be there

192
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 3: as well. And really a rebirth of sorts of a

193
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 3: franchise that went back to back in the late eighties

194
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 3: early nineties, the Detroit Pistons. They're a team that's going

195
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 3: to be right there. And you have the Pacers that

196
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: are going to be waiting, waiting until next year, waiting

197
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 3: until Mother's Day. I I doubt whether they're going to

198
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: be in this draft lottery and whether or not they're

199
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 3: going to be able to select one through four, which

200
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 3: I think is essential to making that trade deadline deal

201
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 3: be the best it absolutely can be. But there's a

202
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 3: little bit of change of pace in the East. But

203
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 3: that mixed team is probably the one you're going to

204
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 3: look at because this should be their year, coming off

205
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 3: back to back disappointments and especially what they would just

206
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 3: a year ago being eliminated by the Pacers in the

207
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference finals. You would have to think that the

208
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 3: Knicks and their fans believe this is their year in

209
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 3: the Eastern Conference, and okay, see, it's just reloading with

210
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 3: what they have once again. It almost feels like at

211
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 3: times a foregone conclusion. Unless Victor Liminama and the San

212
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 3: Antonio Spurs take even more of a major jump with

213
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 3: that unicorn type of talent in San Antonio, that's going

214
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 3: to be worth watching out west too.

215
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 2: Tony so we.

216
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: Look at the you don't see anybody who has an

217
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: opportunity to rise up. You don't see anybody who's been

218
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: playing kind of middling ball. I'm not talking about my

219
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: Indiana Pacers. I'm talking about teams that I actually have

220
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 1: a chance.

221
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, Charlotte would probably be described a little bit. I'm

222
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: not a really believer in Charlotte, Tony, but I think

223
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 3: in terms of you know what you saw, you know

224
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 3: this kind of quick rise and a lot of good

225
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 3: fortune that the Pacers went through the postseason, I think

226
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 3: that Charlotte is one of those teams that you could

227
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 3: probably eyeball a little bit and think that they could

228
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 3: have a little bit once if they set themselves up

229
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 3: in the postseason. I think some of the disappointments and

230
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: we'll see what happens. Cleveland's going to be interesting to watch, Tony,

231
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 3: because you bring in James Harden and you finish, you're

232
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 3: going to raise the bar a little bit after the

233
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: disappointment of.

234
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 2: A year ago.

235
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 3: And really they've had a lot of disappointment this season,

236
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 3: but that just seems like they're trying to piece some

237
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 3: things together right now out of desperation. I think the

238
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 3: way that you look around the Eastern Conference right now,

239
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 3: you have more of Detroit that is set. You feel

240
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 3: good about that. The knicks that are set, you feel

241
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 3: good about that. And even to a degree without Jason Tatum,

242
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 3: you feel good about to sell they But if there's

243
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 3: going to be one team that your eyeball in the

244
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference that maybe we haven't talked about in a

245
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 3: long time since the days of Alonzo Morning and Larry

246
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 3: Johnson would probably be that of the Charlotte Hornets making

247
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 3: a move being a surprise in the Eastern Conference postseason

248
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 3: picture this year.

249
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: JMV the voice of sports in Indiana and around the nation.

250
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: I take the time to be with us. Morris coming up.

251
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Kats today. So the

252
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 1: Board of Peace met today. Tony Katz, Tony Kats today.

253
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: Good to be with you and President Trump speaking to

254
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: the crowd assembled on how they're going to rebuild Gaza

255
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: the other countries.

256
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 4: Because we have a large group of leaders than the

257
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 4: ones that aren't here are watching on zoom.

258
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 5: I hope they enjoy it.

259
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 4: And the press we appreciated very much, so respectful and

260
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 4: that you've been so respectful of what we're doing.

261
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 5: What we're doing is it's.

262
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 2: Very simple peace.

263
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 4: It's called the Border Piece, and it's all about an

264
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 4: easy word to say, but a hard word to produce peace.

265
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 4: But we're going to produce it. And we've been doing

266
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 4: a really good job. And some of these leaders that

267
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 4: are with us have helped me very much during just

268
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 4: this first year. We have a first year like probably

269
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 4: no other ever in our country because we settled eight

270
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 4: wars and I think a night to come. It's turned

271
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 4: out to be a tougher one. I thought that was

272
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 4: going to be the easiest one, but with war, you'd

273
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 4: never know what's easy and what's not so easy. But

274
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 4: we've had a great relationship and I've become friendly with

275
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 4: so many of the people, and I appreciate you being here.

276
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 4: These are great people, These are great leaders, and the

277
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 4: people that are watching by closed circuit and open circuit.

278
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 5: In many cases they're so proud of it they want

279
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 5: it to be open.

280
00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 4: But they become incredible friends of mine. And you know,

281
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 4: we built our country in my first term, and now

282
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,959
Speaker 4: we're at a point that the United States has never

283
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 4: seen before. We broke fifty thousand on the Dow. They

284
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 4: said that would take four years. We broke seven thousand

285
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 4: on the S and P. They said you couldn't do

286
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,359
Speaker 4: that within four years, it would be impossible.

287
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 5: And when I came in, they were all saying.

288
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 4: If you could get to anywhere close to forty forty

289
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 4: five thousand.

290
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 5: It would be amazing achievement over four years.

291
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 4: Well, we hit fifty thousand in the first year, and

292
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 4: we hit seven thousand, which was actually tougher to do.

293
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 4: According to the Wall Street geniuses, we hit seven thousand

294
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 4: in the first year. They said it could take four

295
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 4: or five years. They'd be very happy. It would have

296
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 4: been a great job. We did it in one. But

297
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 4: we're doing We're doing a great job. Border piece is

298
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 4: one of the most important and consequential things I think

299
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 4: that I'll be involved in. We've been involved in a lot,

300
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 4: and I've been involved in a lot with the people

301
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 4: up here. We work together on ending wars with their country.

302
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 4: Some of the wars were thirty two years long, thirty two,

303
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 4: thirty four and a thirty seven.

304
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 5: That's a long time and we ended it in about

305
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 5: two days each one of those.

306
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: But we have some.

307
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 4: Other work to do and we're getting it done. Gaza

308
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 4: is very complex. It's been amazing, but we have some

309
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 4: other work to do, and we're getting it done.

310
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: Gaza.

311
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: Is that wasn't you The audio just repeated. It's a

312
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: worthy reminder at this moment that here's Trump with these people.

313
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: They put in five billion dollars, they're going to do more.

314
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: What is the UN done? How is it that the

315
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: UN was not able to do anything but Trump did.

316
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: This is something else that I think needs to be

317
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: discussed by the Republican Party while this is happening.

318
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 2: Iran was named.

319
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: Vice chair of the UN body promoting Democracy in Women's Rights.

320
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 2: This is a real thing that happened. Rano was elected

321
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 2: as Vice Chair of the United Nations Commission for Social Development.

322
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: The UN has no value to us whatsoever, none less

323
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: than none. We're kidding ourselves. We should stop giving them money.

324
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: But if we can control how things happen in Gaza,

325
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: keep the terrorists out, and allow these people to thrive

326
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: and create something of beauty where there's trade and peace

327
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: in the region, aren't we all better off. I don't

328
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: know if it's gonna work. I know that everything the

329
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: UN did didn't work, except, of course, if you think

330
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: that the UN supporting terrorists as UNRA and other organizations

331
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: supported HAMAS, but that if you consider that working within Yes,

332
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: the UN's a success, but rational people, normal people.

333
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 2: Like us, think it's a failure. It's a failure, and

334
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 2: that's one of the things Trump has really shown.

335
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 5: Very complex. It's been amazing.

336
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 4: I want to thank Steve and Jared for an amazing job.

337
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 4: Marco's over there watching. Everybody's fantastic and JD what a

338
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 4: job they are all doing this a team. I think

339
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 4: it's the best team ever assembled, and you see that

340
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 4: by the results. So today is a tremendous honor to

341
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 4: welcome you all to the United States Institute of Peace

342
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 4: for the inaugural meeting of the Board of Peace.

343
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 5: Very important.

344
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 4: I believe it's the most consequential board, certainly in terms

345
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 4: of power and in terms of prestige. There's never been

346
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 4: anything close. Because these are the greatest world leaders. Almost

347
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 4: everybody's accepted and the ones that haven't will be.

348
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 5: Some are playing a little cute.

349
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 4: It doesn't work. You can't play cute with me. But

350
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 4: they're playing a little bit. But they're all. They're all

351
00:17:54,359 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 4: joining everybody, most of them very immediately. A few that

352
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 4: we really don't want because they're trouble take care of them.

353
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 4: But this is the most prestigious board ever put together.

354
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 4: You know, I've seen some great corporate boards. I've seen

355
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 4: some great boards, period. It's peanuts compared to this sport

356
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 4: because we have virtually everyone is the head of a

357
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,959
Speaker 4: country other than Johnny, but he's the head of soccer.

358
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 4: So that's not so bad, right, Johnny?

359
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,959
Speaker 5: I like you. You haveb the best, I think.

360
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 4: And by the way, your World Cup has set every

361
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 4: single ticket record in the history of soccer, in the history,

362
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 4: nobody's ever seen anything like it. The sales are virtually complete.

363
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 4: Nobody's ever seen anything. So congratulations, you made a good decision.

364
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: He's talking about World Cup coming to the United States.

365
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: He doesn't change for anything, he doesn't. But these are

366
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: the kinds of things that they need to aggressively talk

367
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 1: about as valuable and why you should keep voting for

368
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: Republicans because this is the kind of stuff that you get.

369
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 1: You get opportunities for peace. If you vote for Democrats,

370
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: you get opportunities for fraud. They won't even vote for

371
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: voter ID, they won't even vote to help reduce or

372
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 1: eliminate the possibility of fraud. This is what comes from

373
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 1: this border piece.

374
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 5: I don't know.

375
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 2: You can't answer that question.

376
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: I hope good things, but is there any question that

377
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: this is better than anything the UN could do?

378
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 2: Yes, And what it should make us say is maybe

379
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 2: our time.

380
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: With the UN is done, because it should be done.

381
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today.

382
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: So I would have put the odds at small but

383
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: possible that the Chicago Bears could move to Indiana because

384
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 1: Illinois is given them a heck of a time. They

385
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: want to put a stadium in Arlington Heights, Illinois Like,

386
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: we'll get back to you, and there's Indiana.

387
00:19:59,359 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 2: Not too far.

388
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: I mean, take a look at a map, it's not

389
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: too far, Tony Katz. Tony Katz today, good to be

390
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,640
Speaker 1: with you, and a much better tax base. And when

391
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 1: the conversation came up to their credit, it's it's not

392
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: often you can give your state government credit. They were focused.

393
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: They were like, Okay, let's see what we can create here.

394
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 2: And the city's involved.

395
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 1: A city called Gary, a city called Hammond, another city

396
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: called Portage.

397
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 2: They said, all right, we've got some serious ideas here.

398
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 2: It says if they.

399
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: Had some things already in a drawer and then dusted

400
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: it off in massage and said, if this opportunity ever came,

401
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: we'd be here. Because if they thought of this on

402
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: the quick, they really did a beautiful job. And now

403
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears putting out a statement that they are

404
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: indeed committed to looking at the areas in Indiana.

405
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 2: To me, this is not a done deal.

406
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: This is not a fair complete but rather it is

407
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: a statement that says we are committed to finishing the

408
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 1: remaining site specific necessary due diligence to support our vision

409
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: to build a world class stadium near the Wolf Lake

410
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: area in Hammond, Indiana. This is possible. Kevin Bowen joins

411
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: me right now. He is the host of the Fan

412
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: Morning Show on ninety three to five one a seven

413
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 1: to five of the Fan out of Indianapolis. He is

414
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: also an expert on the Indianapolis Cults, where he does

415
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: writing from training camp all the way through the season.

416
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 2: And that's a big part of this story because.

417
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: Indiana already has a team and now here's the possibility

418
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 1: of a second team coming.

419
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 2: Let's not pay attention to the politics, Kevin.

420
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: Let's not get into what it's going to take to

421
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 1: build a stadium and the money and the tax credits

422
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: and all the rest. The real story here is what

423
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: is the what is the general thought process in the

424
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: NFL about the Bears possibly moving from Chicago, Sweet Home, Chicago,

425
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: to Hammond to Northwest Indiana.

426
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, morning, Tony. Always good to hear your voice. Yeah,

427
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 6: it is stunning, just the aspect of it. Is one

428
00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 6: of the historic NFL teams.

429
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 3: This is not, oh, the.

430
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 6: Jacksonville Jaguars might move to London, you know, one of

431
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 6: these newer teams. You know, the history of the Bears

432
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 6: obviously is beyond documented. So I think that is the

433
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 6: stunning aspect to it. You know, you point out geographically,

434
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 6: it's honestly not the craziest thought though. I mean to

435
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 6: a lot of Bears fans it might be a closer

436
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 6: drive to the stadium at Hammond than it would have

437
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 6: been to the stadium in Arlington Heights. I should point

438
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 6: out too, it's not the most foreign thing in the

439
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 6: world to have NFL teams with a different state in

440
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 6: their name versus where they play the games. The Jets

441
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,160
Speaker 6: and the Giants would be the biggest example of that.

442
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 6: Those are New York teams by name, and they play

443
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 6: in New Jersey. I want to say the Washington football team.

444
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 6: I guess technically you know, old Redskins, current Commanders. I

445
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:54,360
Speaker 6: believe Landover is where that stadium is. Again, it's right Maryland,

446
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 6: so it's not the most foreign concept, but still considering

447
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 6: it as the Bears, I think that aspect is a

448
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 6: bit jarring.

449
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do think it is different.

450
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 1: You know, the Giants and the Jets playing in Rutherford

451
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: in the Meadowlands. That that standard, right, We have had

452
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: this for for decades. The idea of Landover, Maryland, Well,

453
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: you're not gonna have a stadium inside d C proper.

454
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 2: The Wizards play there, the Caps hockey.

455
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 1: Play there, but it's not It isn't anything that kind

456
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: of boggles the mind.

457
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 2: The area is still considered the DC area.

458
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: But Chicago has a serious name, footprint, identity, thought process, swagger,

459
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: and this this changes. I wonder if it changes a

460
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: lot of that. But you bring up that maybe.

461
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: They're they're closer.

462
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: You're talking about people in the southern part of Chicago

463
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 1: and further into Illinois that might come over. Does the

464
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 1: NFL look at these kinds of moves as positives.

465
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 2: Or are they very wary of teams doing.

466
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 6: This well, I think, first off, I don't think it's

467
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,199
Speaker 6: maybe the shock as a general move would be. You know,

468
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 6: their team headquarters are in Lake Forest, So from a

469
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 6: three hundred and sixty five day out of the year,

470
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 6: grind players will be in Illinois. I mean you're only

471
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 6: literally in Indiana for whatever your eight home games, your

472
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 6: nine home games, and even the night before a game.

473
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 6: I'd be willing to guess you know, they probably are

474
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 6: in a hotel that would be on their side of

475
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 6: the state, and then would obviously bust over police escort

476
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 6: wise on game day. I am curious too, I'd have

477
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 6: to look at a map Tony because you know how

478
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 6: many NFL teams would this be possible for, you know

479
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 6: how many teams are located so close to the border Alla, Jets, Giants, Allah,

480
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 6: the Bears that this is even possible. Like take you know,

481
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 6: Indianapolis for example, and the Colts. I mean you got

482
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 6: to drive at least ninety minutes one way, you know, east, southeast,

483
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 6: west wherever to get out of the state, so that

484
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 6: obviously would be difficult. You know, a lot of teams

485
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 6: kind of fall a little bit more into that boat there,

486
00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 6: So I don't think this would be kind of an

487
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 6: uproar from the the NFL of like, oh my gosh,

488
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 6: now we have two teams in Indiana. We can't we

489
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 6: can't have that anymore. We got to do something to

490
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 6: move one of those teams. I don't necessarily see that

491
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 6: being the case here. And the NFL again, is just

492
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 6: much different from MLB one hundred and sixty two games

493
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 6: eighty one home games. Is the NBA eighty two games

494
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 6: forty one home games? You know again, we're talking eight

495
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 6: or nine Sundays, And the Bears don't use Soldier Field

496
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 6: currently as their practice site. Some NFL teams do use

497
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 6: their stadium as a practice site or as headquarters. The

498
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,880
Speaker 6: Bears are not one of them. So, you know again,

499
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 6: as far as shockwaves across the NFL, could we see

500
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 6: other teams do this, I don't necessarily seeing that happening

501
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 6: too too many times.

502
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, the two teams that come to mind.

503
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 1: Talking to Kevin Bowen in ninety three, five one, seven

504
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: to five of the Fan out of Indianapolis talking about

505
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: the possibility of the Bears moving to Indiana, as Indiana

506
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 1: has just passed legislation to make this a step closer

507
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 1: than the Bears have said, we're serious about an area

508
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: called Hammond, Indiana. It would be the Cincinnati Bengals that

509
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: can move to Kentucky or Indiana, and would be the

510
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns. I could just hop over to Pennsylvania if

511
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 1: they chose. The Steelers could hop over like those are

512
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: the teams on the border Philadelphia.

513
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 2: The Eagles could decide to go into Delaware. But none

514
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 2: of those things I think are ever going to happen.

515
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: But you know, with the NFL so guarding itself, everything

516
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: is about the shield and nothing to.

517
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 2: Hurt it.

518
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: This has to have some level of their blessing. They

519
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: have to see some level of financial opportunity here. And

520
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: certainly we can discuss it from just the taxes that

521
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 1: even if they're just playing the games here, that the

522
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: taxes in Indiana are lower than Illinois and that's a

523
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: great savings to the team.

524
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 2: And I would argue to the players. But does the

525
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 2: NFL concern itself with any level.

526
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: Of what I would call I don't want to insult

527
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: to anybody, and certainly not my own state prestige loss

528
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: not being in Chicago proper.

529
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a great question, TONI and Honestly, the question

530
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 6: I've asked a lot of Bears fans like do you care?

531
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 6: I mean outside of the mailing address and maybe an

532
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 6: overhead shot from whatever CBS or Fox on a Sunday that,

533
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 6: oh wow, that isn't that's Wolflake not Lake Michigan. You know,

534
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 6: I guess that's different. But you know, outside of that,

535
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 6: I mean, do you care that much? And again, logistically,

536
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 6: for some Bears fans, it'll be a better commute, and

537
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 6: that's frankly, all people care about on game days is

538
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 6: you're getting the Soldier. Field's quite the hassle for a

539
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 6: lot of people. And obviously parking is, you know, a

540
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 6: total cluster. Whereas you would sink with this stadium, you know,

541
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 6: having pin up to Ham in Indiana and lots of

542
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 6: Marsha golf Course and Wolflake Wolflake, I would tend to

543
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 6: think you'd have a lot more area around the stadium

544
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,640
Speaker 6: for some of that. So, you know, maybe it's kind

545
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 6: of more of a pride thing than any But I mean,

546
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 6: it's not like you're you're changing your name. I mean,

547
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 6: you're still going to be called the Chicago Bears. I mean,

548
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 6: like it's not like all of a sudden. Yes, you know,

549
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 6: other NFL teams will joke you're the hamm and Bears

550
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 6: or the Gary Bears or whatever, but uh, you know,

551
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 6: bad aspect of it is not changing. Here. One thing

552
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 6: I was curious, like, you know, are we at a

553
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 6: time in the NFL at all tony with like expansion

554
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 6: or moving teams? You know, London has always been a rumor,

555
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 6: but there's not the sitting now that Vegas and la

556
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 6: have their respective teams, there's not the sitting NFL cities

557
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 6: that I feel like are just knocking on the door,

558
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 6: you know, in the NBA. Right now we have that

559
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 6: with Las Vegas ironically and Seattle as two of those

560
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 6: NBA cities. It doesn't seem like we're they're with the NFL. Honestly,

561
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 6: the next big city seems to be something from an

562
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 6: overseas element, particularly London. So I guess to get back

563
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 6: to the question, to me, it would just be, you know,

564
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 6: Bears fans, do you care that again? The Malian address

565
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 6: and the location is not going to be in downtown

566
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 6: Chicago in the heart of it. I mean, Lake Shore

567
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 6: is such a central location for so many people you

568
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 6: visit Chicago, there's a good chance that you've seen the stadium,

569
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 6: et cetera, et cetera. You obviously are not going to

570
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 6: have that anymore.

571
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 2: Do the Colts care?

572
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: I mean, they came here in nineteen eighty four, they

573
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: made the big move out of Baltimore. This Indianapolis is

574
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: a town that built a stadium without having a team

575
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: and it just happened to work out.

576
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 2: Do the Colts care if the Bears come to Indiana?

577
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 2: Do they think it affects them their fan base and

578
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 2: their money?

579
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 6: I don't think so as much as you would. So

580
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 6: the NFL has these marketing lines drawn geographically. I want

581
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 6: to say, it's kind of a ninety ish mile radius.

582
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 6: It's in your market. So there are sections of the

583
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 6: state of Indiana the Colts technically are not allowed to

584
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 6: market in, like Cincinnati, for example, has a lot of

585
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 6: that southeast squadrant of the state, even over to Louisville.

586
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 6: I think a little bit there, whereas the Colts don't

587
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 6: have that. And you know, you will remember this, Tony,

588
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 6: and certainly I think some people do. The Bears used

589
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 6: to even hold training camp in Rinselia, Indiana, which is

590
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 6: not region region, but it's you know, it's north of

591
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 6: West Lafayette. I mean it is in kind of that

592
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 6: pocket of the state, if you will. And again this

593
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 6: is even further closer to the Illinois border there. I

594
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 6: think up there, if you did a poll, probably nine

595
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 6: out of ten fans are Bears fans anyway, So you know,

596
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 6: this is not like they're coming to a donut county

597
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 6: around Marion County where the Colts are located. You know,

598
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 6: this is not putting the Chicago Bears at Grand Park

599
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 6: in suburban you know, Westfield, Indiana, and they're right there,

600
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 6: you know, in your actual backyard there. Obviously, it's an

601
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 6: NFC team versus an AFC team. You only play them

602
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 6: once every four years. So I just don't think it'll

603
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 6: have as big of an impact again as whatever the

604
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 6: two LA teams sharing a market, or the two New

605
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 6: York teams sharing a market, or you know, even some

606
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 6: of the closer teams that you maybe mentioned earlier. Just geographically,

607
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 6: you know, the Colts are still a good you know,

608
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 6: ninety minutes to two hours away from every NFL team

609
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 6: not named the Bengals and the Bears.

610
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: That is Kevin Bowen from three five one seventy five,

611
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 1: the fan out of Indianapolis, Kevin, I appreciate you taking

612
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: the time more to get to keep it here. This

613
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: is Tony Katz today, so there's even more to Zorroonmom

614
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: Donnie's insanity plan in New York, Tony Katz, Tony Katz today.

615
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 2: Good to be with you. And I know what you're saying, Tony,

616
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 2: it's New York. We don't care. I'm with you.

617
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: I think that if New York fails, that's New York's problem.

618
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: People voted for this, fine by me suffer. Now there

619
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 1: are plenty people who didn't vote for this. I don't

620
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: want them to suffer for this. Nothing I can do.

621
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: If they haven't left, that's their problem. And I've said

622
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: this about Fox Newsmax, I say this about everybody.

623
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 2: How can you stay? Why would you stay?

624
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 1: One hundred and twenty seven billion dollars is the budget

625
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: necessary for eight million people? The Florida budget is one

626
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: hundred and seventeen million, and they've got twenty three and

627
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: a half million people.

628
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: That's the point.

629
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 1: New York's ridiculous, and these progressives and their policies are ridiculous.

630
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: But now, Mam Donnie a communist is lomist? Pace both

631
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,959
Speaker 1: it's kind of fascinating. His plan is to put an

632
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 1: end to things that Mayor Eric Adams put in place,

633
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: including the hiring of five thousand police officers. This was

634
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: supposed to start in twenty twenty six, build through twenty

635
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: twenty seven, and eventually be five thousand additional officers annually.

636
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty eight. They need the officers, and Mam

637
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 2: Donnie just said no to this.

638
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: So one way to look at this is defund the police.

639
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: They don't want police officers. But there's another argument, which

640
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: is if you're not going to replace the police officers

641
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: you have, eventually you'll have no police officers at all.

642
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 2: First, how could anybody remain a cop in New York?

643
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: How could you possibly do it because of the pension.

644
00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: You actually think there's going to be a pension left.

645
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: That's stunning to me. But how could you work for

646
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: this guy?

647
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 2: He doesn't have your back.

648
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: Police get called to a scene where a woman is

649
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 1: trying to calm down. I don't know if it's a boyfriend,

650
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a sibling, I don't.

651
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 2: Know who this guy was. The guy picks up a

652
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 2: knife and is now going at the police.

653
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,959
Speaker 1: Officers who were brought there, called there to help subdue

654
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: the situation or limit the situation.

655
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 2: They keep telling him to drop the knife. They close

656
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 2: the door in between the two of them.

657
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: The guy with the knife opens the door and lungers

658
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: at The cops get shot, and mom Donnie visits the

659
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: guy who held the knife.

660
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 2: I mean, how could you be a cop in New York?

661
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: How could you possibly live with yourself? I don't have

662
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: the answer as for not bringing on five thousand more cops.

663
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: That's defunding the police.

664
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 5: That is what it is.

665
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: And now that we know it that these lefties.

666
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: Still believe it. Okay, best of luck to you. Next week,

667
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: I'm heading out to DC for the State of the Union.

668
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: Am I was invited. I'm going to the State of

669
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: the Union. I'll be in the gallery. I'm looking forward

670
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 1: to it. It's gonna be a very very very good time,

671
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: I hope. And Democrats so you know, they're talking about walkouts, this, that,

672
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: and the other, all sorts of madness.

673
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 2: I will be there. I'll watch it firsthand. You don't

674
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 2: get a phone.

675
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: You can't have your phone in the gallery, right, so

676
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: you won't be able to take pictures or anything.

677
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 2: But you'll see it all on TV. It'll be fine.

678
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 2: Going to d C doesn't bother me at all. Going

679
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 2: to d C does not bother me, does not move

680
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 2: me at all.

681
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 7: It's fine. Going to New York. I'll take a pass.

682
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 7: I will take a very very large pass going to

683
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 7: New York. I don't need it, don't need it, don't

684
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 7: want it. I can't imagine. I grew up in the

685
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,879
Speaker 7: shadow of New York, spent a million hours in New York,

686
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 7: more than some, not as many as others. I can't

687
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 7: imagine feeling safe walking down any street. I used to

688
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 7: walk down the streets holding.

689
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: A cigar, smoking a cigar, just stopping and smoking a

690
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: cigar on a just a public wherever.

691
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 2: It was fine.

692
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:28,240
Speaker 1: I can't imagine it today. This is not a safe place.

693
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: It doesn't want to be a safe place now. I'm

694
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: sure there's plenty of people who are going through their

695
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: everyday lives they've never had a problem. I just don't

696
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,240
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna get that lucky. And what Mom Donnie

697
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 1: is saying is try your luck, let me make it worse.

698
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: Best of luck to you me. I don't have to

699
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,439
Speaker 1: worry because I've got all the security, but you best

700
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: of luck. I don't know how anybody puts up with it.

701
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how anybody at all deals with that.

702
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: I don't know why to do never right? How why

703
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 1: you can't afford to leave. I don't think you can

704
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: afford to stay.
