1 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: I saved the best for last, the most important thing 2 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: to me. 3 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 2: You know. 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: When I was at IU in the fall of nineteen fifty, 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: I met my wife. 6 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 3: Nancy, the woman that many people would say saved the 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 3: Indiana Pacers franchise. 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 4: The first lady of the Pacers, the Great Nancy Letard. 9 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 5: They said, we're running out of money. We don't have 10 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 5: enough money to pay the salaries of the players. For 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 5: some reason, I said, we just need some kind of 12 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 5: exciting activity for the fans, like a telephone. 13 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 6: As of twelve twenty five, we've got an hour and 14 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 6: fifty minutes to go, Bob, We're in. 15 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 5: Eighty twenty eight. 16 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 7: If the Pacers don't survive, do we get the Colts 17 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 7: in nineteen eighty four? Does the amateur sports initiative really 18 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 7: take hold as it did in the early eighties. I 19 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 7: think that was really a major major component to Indianapolis 20 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 7: being able to build itself. Not only is a great town, 21 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 7: but a great sports town. 22 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 8: They helped resurrect the team from almost going into some 23 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 8: sort of financial default. 24 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 5: There were like eight or ten owners of the places 25 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 5: that time. They felt they needed a general manager. Pretty soon. 26 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 5: I just said, there are so many people that are 27 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 5: qualified to be a general manager. And I said that 28 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 5: I do feel the teams that seemed to really have 29 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 5: it all together have somebody that have had some involvement 30 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 5: in the sport. And it was been silent, and I thought, 31 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 5: oh my god, what if I said, And one of 32 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 5: the owners said, well, then if you know all that, 33 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 5: why don't you do it? And Bob, you know what 34 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 5: he said. He looked at me and he said she 35 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 5: can do it. And they said, okay, that's it. 36 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 9: You took over and she did everything inside, all the paper, 37 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 9: everything had to come through. Nanci. 38 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: Have Nancy watched the US Open and how these golfers 39 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: walk out and tell her to pick a favor. 40 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 10: That's easy. 41 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 5: You just go and watch all the golfers and when 42 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 5: you can see the guy with the cutest light, you come. 43 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 10: My biggest accomplish ship was not that telephone. 44 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 2: You know that. 45 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 10: I started the pace Lates in the basement of my house. 46 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 9: One night. 47 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 5: We're down there, my little two year old, who is Tommy? 48 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 5: I thought this a blondhead look around the corner of 49 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 5: the dairy commy. 50 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 11: Watching the gold What would have meant to him to 51 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 11: see a championship? 52 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 12: I look up in the stands at the games, and 53 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 12: I think, oh my gosh, Bob, you brother us Indianapolis. 54 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 10: It's hard. It's been such a wonderful wood. 55 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 11: The first lady of Indianapolis sports. And we've all learned 56 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 11: a lot more about Nancy Leonard if you didn't know 57 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 11: already over the last twenty four hours as we honor 58 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 11: the life, the legacy, the memory of Nancy Leonard, who's 59 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 11: gone to be with Slick passing away yesterday at the 60 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 11: age of ninety three. Great job on that, Mark, Tyke 61 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 11: that I know you worked really hard on that all 62 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 11: day long, and I thought it painted a vivid picture 63 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 11: of who Nancy was and what she meant to not 64 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 11: just the Pacers, but to this city in general. And 65 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 11: it is absolutely a life worth celebrating, remembering, honoring for 66 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 11: anyone who's just even a French sports fan, and even 67 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 11: if you're not a sports fan, a lot of the 68 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 11: ripple effects of what she did made this city what 69 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 11: it is. Good morning, Kevin Bowen, Good morning, James Boyd. Mark, 70 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 11: congratulations on a fantastic tribute to Nancy. There. We unfortunately 71 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 11: broke the news. We didn't break the news, but we 72 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 11: learned of the news very late in the show yesterday, 73 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 11: really on the way out, didn't have much time to 74 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 11: talk about Nancy. We'll do that for a few minutes 75 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 11: this morning before we start to address some of the 76 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 11: other things that are in front of us and on 77 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 11: our plate. Kevin, I want to start with you. You're 78 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 11: an Indianapolis native, if you grew up here, You've been 79 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 11: to Market Square Arena in the old days, You've been 80 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 11: to all the things as they've evolved over the years. 81 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 11: When I say the name Nancy Leonard, what do you think? 82 00:03:58,720 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah? 83 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 3: You know, I've always said to myself, without Peyton Manning, 84 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 3: I don't have this job. Honestly, I probably should start 85 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: with Nancy Leonard. I think she's one of those people 86 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: that you go to first, because honestly, maybe without her, 87 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 3: maybe there's no Peyton Manning frankly in this market either. 88 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 3: And I also thought yesterday about Monday Show. You know 89 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 3: remember how we started Monday Show such a jovial nature 90 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 3: to sitting here saying, hey, we need five hours to 91 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 3: discuss all these Indiana sports stories. Do all those Indiana 92 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 3: sports stories exist in twenty twenty five without her presence? 93 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 3: And again, first, Lady, like you said of the Indiana Pacers, 94 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 3: and you know everything she did from a telethon standpoint, 95 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 3: I think for the most part, our audience understands that background. 96 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 3: The more I was reading up on her, I didn't 97 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 3: realize how big of a pillar she was and getting 98 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: the three point line to become a thing in the ABA. 99 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 3: And I mean think about the three point line from 100 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 3: an entertainment value standpoint, like that's just like a that's 101 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 3: a big deal to a lot of people. And yet 102 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 3: when you say an NBA franchise, they gets pushed down 103 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 3: the rung a little bit in what you share. So Mark, 104 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 3: tremendous your best work right there. And I thought Jake 105 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 3: and John both did a wonderful job yesterday and paying 106 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 3: tribute to Nancy. And I'm glad we get the opportunity 107 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 3: to do it today. 108 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 13: Yeah. 109 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 11: And if you have the chance to go back on 110 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 11: the line and listen to either of those two shows, 111 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 11: they were reacting in real time. Obviously we had just 112 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 11: learned about at the very end of our show. But 113 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 11: I know on Jake's show alone, Kevin Pritchard called in 114 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 11: all on his own. We talked to Mark Boyle, there 115 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 11: were several key people from the entire lifespan of Nancy 116 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 11: and Slick and that team and growing up with it. 117 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 11: I would highly encourage you to go back and listen 118 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 11: to some of that. James Boyd, I know you've this 119 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 11: is an adopted city for you. You've been here and 120 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 11: one of the things I like about you, one of 121 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 11: the reasons that I wanted to bring you in to 122 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 11: the fan is you have jumped into the deep end 123 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 11: of Indianapolis sports head first high school games, local college games, 124 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 11: the universities, the NBA, the NFL, and you've kind of 125 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 11: landed with the athletic covering the cults. But I love 126 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 11: the fact that you were out and about and you're everywhere. 127 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 11: When you hear the name Nancy Leonard is somebody who 128 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 11: adopted this city over the last several years and is 129 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 11: gone all in here. What do you know? What do 130 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 11: you think about it? 131 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 14: I think for me personally, it probably became a bigger 132 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 14: deal to me when the Pacers made the finals this 133 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 14: most previous time, because during that run I had so 134 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 14: many people telling me about how things used to be 135 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,559 Speaker 14: and how they aren't supposed to be here. 136 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 15: And you hear that cliche line a lot. 137 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 14: Like, oh nobody believed in us, we're not supposed to 138 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 14: be here, this is untarted territory, but it kind of 139 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 14: is because they literally are not supposed to be here 140 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 14: without the telethon. And so going back through the history 141 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 14: of the franchise, learning about Nancy and Slick and the 142 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 14: two legends that they are, and the cool part about 143 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 14: it is whenever I would bring up Slick because that's 144 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 14: who I learned about first, everyone was like, wait a second, James, 145 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 14: you know you're still new here. You're not hoo's your 146 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 14: eyes just yet, because you got to go Nancy too. 147 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 15: And this isn't like. 148 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 14: A a he's one rung above her type of thing. Like, no, 149 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 14: they're a pair together. So that's what I've learned along 150 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 14: the way. And I go back to a story I 151 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 14: wrote right before they played Game seven, and in the story, 152 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 14: I mentioned all of the things that Nancy did to 153 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 14: save this franchise, And the one line that sticks out 154 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 14: to me that I used in the story that really 155 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 14: kind of resonates today was their journey from their dire 156 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 14: past powers their defiant present. So all this, you know, 157 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 14: it's us against the world mentality that the Pacers embraced 158 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 14: during that finals run. That's what they kind of had 159 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 14: to have to even have an existence. It's like, Hey, 160 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 14: we're gonna do for us because nobody else will. So 161 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 14: we're going to ask our city and our fans to 162 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 14: believe in us, when if they did not, this franchise 163 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 14: would have been elsewhere. So much respect to Nancy Leonard. 164 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 14: I had a chance to ask Rick Carlisle about her 165 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 14: aunt Slick during the finals. He'd nothing to great things 166 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 14: to say about them during that run, and so I'm 167 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 14: glad you got a chance to see them get back 168 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 14: to the finals play such a big stage. And again 169 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 14: you saw Tyr's Halliburton react to the news yesterday and 170 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 14: Miles Turner after they made it to the finals going 171 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 14: over to hug Her. So obviously a lot of respect 172 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 14: from past and present players. 173 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 11: First time around on the morning show for Mark and 174 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 11: I together, Slick Leonard was an indomitable part of what 175 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 11: we did. He not only joined us on the weekly, 176 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 11: but oftentimes just because we needed to talk to Slick 177 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 11: about something, and it was always the same thing. Mark, 178 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 11: it was, Hey, let's get Slick on and you'd make 179 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 11: a phone call and only one person would answer that 180 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 11: phone and deal with how everything needed to be done. 181 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 16: I can still just hear the inflection. This is the Leonards, 182 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 16: This is Nancy. How you doing, Mark, I'm like doing well, 183 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 16: slick there.

I'm like, that's 185 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 16: fine too, go ahead, and she'd chime in every once 186 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 16: in a while and everything, and every time we're slick 187 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 16: would be try to answer a question about who the 188 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 16: pacers were playing in an opponent or something like that, 189 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 16: and he'd blank on a player's name or something like that. 190 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 16: Need to hear a whisper. 191 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 15: Jeremy Lamb. 192 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 16: Jeremy Lamb really good and like you can just tell 193 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 16: that influence. And it was just great to see and 194 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 16: two great humans there. So sad that they're both no 195 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 16: longer with us, but glad that they're back together. 196 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 11: And I'll tell you what, just a a married guy 197 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 11: when you look at the relationship and Kevin, you could 198 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 11: chime in on this that just the day in, day out, 199 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 11: year in, year out, decade in decade out togetherness and 200 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 11: oneness of slicking Nancy, if you were married at all 201 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 11: and you saw that it was inspiring Kevin, there's no 202 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 11: other way to put it. 203 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 3: It just was, Yeah, certainly, I think that's really well said. 204 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 3: I want to make sure we shared this. I got 205 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 3: a DMS day from listener Jeffrey Goes. Needs to be 206 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 3: a statue of Nancy and Slick arm in arm waving 207 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: to all attendees who come into the Fieldhouse lobby. That 208 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 3: specific image them welcome, welcoming us into the lobby makes total, 209 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 3: total sense. 210 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 15: I hadn't thought about that. 211 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 3: That's cool, So Jeffrey, thank you for that. I think 212 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 3: that is an awesome, awesome idea. I know Tyree se 213 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 3: mentioned yesterday in his tweet, you know up in the rafters. 214 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: Obviously Slick is up there Nancy as well, but that 215 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 3: to me would be an awesome, awesome image. I think 216 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 3: one of the cooler aspects of gamebridgeield House is that lobby. 217 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 3: I think it's such a welcoming environment. Obviously you saw 218 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 3: it play out on that infamous Saturday night in Game 219 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 3: six of the Finals with Miles Turner embracing Nancy Leonard 220 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 3: behind that bench, and you know, Tyree shared that video yesterday. 221 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 3: TJ McConnell like that, to me, I think would be 222 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 3: a really really cool image. So you know, maybe the 223 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 3: powers to be over there off of Pennsylvania and Delaware. 224 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 3: Hopefully that can come to fruition. 225 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 11: Yeah, we've we've got a lot of work to do today. Obviously, 226 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 11: we've got a big weekend of football coming up, and 227 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 11: we'll talk a little bit more about everything else that's 228 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 11: happening in our area. All day long, we'll do some 229 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 11: of the regular Thursday things that we do, but for 230 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 11: a brief moment, we will talk to Eddie White, who 231 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 11: will be here just for a few minutes at the 232 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 11: top of the hour eight o'clock. Because Eddie's a guy 233 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 11: that saw a lot of this develop over the years 234 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 11: and was kind of behind the scenes and seeing how 235 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 11: it all worked out. I want to get his thoughts 236 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 11: on that. He is a tremendous link between pacers present, 237 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 11: pacers passed in a lot of ways, and so I'm 238 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 11: looking forward to that. As I mentioned, we got a 239 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 11: lot of football to talk about as well. The Cults 240 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 11: were back at work yesterday. We'll get you caught up 241 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 11: on all those things in a minute. But this show 242 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 11: is dedicated to, as I said, the life, the legacy, 243 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 11: the memory, the celebration of Nancy Leonard, and of course 244 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 11: Slick and they are together again, and I can only 245 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 11: imagine we'll be forevermore. As we'll continue The Fan Morning 246 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 11: Show next ninety three five and one oh seven five, The. 247 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 13: Morning Checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh seven five. 248 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 11: The Fan Good Morning. Week four in the National Football 249 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 11: League kicks off tonight. It'll be the Seahawks set the 250 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 11: Cardinals in NFC West matchup. A few of us will 251 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 11: be paying attention to that, as we always do for 252 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 11: the National Football League, but all eyes here on Sunday 253 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 11: afternoon out West when the Los Angeles Rams, another member 254 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 11: of the NFC West, will be hosting the Indianapolis Colts. 255 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 11: Kevin Bowen injury updates after practice yesterday. What do we have? 256 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of them, and I don't like 257 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 3: carrying a change in the body parts for Kenny Moore. 258 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: The second in terms of where that injury is, Shane 259 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 3: Steikin said more in the Achilles area versus cath He 260 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 3: was at practice with a boot on that left leg. 261 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 3: So again, I don't think goes without saying I have 262 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 3: no medical education, but that doesn't sound good to me. Granted, 263 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 3: the cults are still not talking about injured reserve for 264 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: him or anything like that, but nonetheless his availability for 265 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 3: this week looks very much up in the air. Alec 266 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: Pearson concussion protocol. Matt Gonzalva is starting right guard miss 267 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 3: practice with a tow injury to force Buckner out with 268 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: the back. Granted, Buckner is misstime due to that back 269 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 3: injury before in the last years and still played. So 270 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 3: definitely notable names, and we'll see how the week progresses here, 271 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: but it looks like the Colts could be down a 272 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 3: couple of key guys here in week four. 273 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 11: Yeah, a lot of those names are big names. James 274 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 11: Boyd as we take a look at all of that, 275 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 11: good news again for the Colts, they just keep rolling. 276 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 11: Jonathan Taylor back to back AFC Offensive Player of the Week. 277 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 11: JT's on a roll absolutely. 278 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 14: Just to round out the last couple of absences from yesterday, 279 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 14: Xavin Howard miss yesterday due to rest. 280 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 15: The cornerback that are in cornerback. 281 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 14: We did see Mike Hilton, by the way, newly signed 282 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 14: practicing yesterday, and then Rigo Bertha Sanchez, the punter for 283 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 14: the Colts, was not there do a personal matter, so 284 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 14: hope everything's good with his family. But getting back to 285 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 14: jt Yes, back to back AFC Offensive Player of the 286 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 14: Week honors, and I believe this is a fifth time 287 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 14: he's received the honor in his career. And I would argue, 288 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 14: you know, looking to the numbers, have a story coming 289 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 14: out later today, but actually tomorrow at the Athletic where 290 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 14: you will really get to see some of the numbers 291 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 14: that I would argue suggest that Jay he is better 292 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 14: through these first three weeks I think he's ever been 293 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 14: in his career. And this is a guy who was 294 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 14: First team All Pro, as you know, Jeff a few 295 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 14: years ago. 296 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 11: I thought it was just the. 297 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: Craziest stat I've seen. The Colts sent this out yesterday 298 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 3: of pawn Jonathan Taylor winning back to back AFC Offensive 299 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 3: Player of the Weeks. He is the first player in 300 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 3: franchise history, not Manning, not James, not Marvin, not Reggie, 301 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: not Dallas, not Andrew Luck, not t Y Hilton. He 302 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 3: is the first player in franchise history to win back 303 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: to back Offensive Player of the Weeks. And I get 304 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 3: there's some other stuff that goes into that, obviously around 305 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 3: the league and around the conference, but damn, that is 306 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 3: quite quite impressive. 307 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 14: I think the league should be a shame because there's 308 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 14: no way that Peyton Manning won a league record five MVPs. 309 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 16: He was never the back to back player of the 310 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 16: week when I saw that, that's crazy. 311 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 11: It was probably every other week him in Brady h 312 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 11: I guess so right, But now that's an amazing stat. 313 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 11: I saw that yesterday and I found myself again two 314 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 11: or three times yesterday James watching that forty six yard 315 00:14:58,280 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 11: touchdown run again yesterday. 316 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean we should play the clip and actually 317 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 14: I'll get Mark to pull it. Josh Downs reacted to 318 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 14: that play on his podcast with his brother Caleb Downs. 319 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 14: He plays at Ohio State, star player, going to be 320 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 14: a top five pick whenever he comes out of the draft. 321 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 14: I believe he's alas well next year. But yeah, it 322 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 14: was quite special to see, and I love to see 323 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 14: the players' reactions to that because that kind of lets 324 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 14: you know how crazy it is when you have those 325 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 14: guys reacting like us when they're on the same field 326 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 14: as John Taylor. 327 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 11: No question about it. We'll be talking about it all 328 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 11: morning long and getting me ready to go for the 329 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 11: Colts and Rams Sunday afternoon here on ninety three five 330 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 11: and one on seven to five the fan.

They did their job, they 333 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 11: went to Vegas, they got a split. It's now a 334 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 11: best of three series and the Fever have home court advantage. 335 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 11: Can they get back to what they did in Game 336 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 11: one as opposed to the just disjointed nature of Game two? 337 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 14: Yeah, first and foremost, I just hope that the officiating 338 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 14: man there is something called early. I'm not saying I 339 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 14: wanted to be a slow game because of a ton 340 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 14: of fouls, but come on, man, we can't be watching 341 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 14: rugby like we did I thought in game two. But 342 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 14: then getting back to actual scheme stuff, I think a 343 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 14: lot of it comes down to who else can make 344 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 14: shots beyond Kelsey Mitchell. But also she can't have an 345 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 14: off game. I mean, that's just quite how true it is. 346 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 14: It's obvious she has to be on her a game, 347 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 14: but the surrounding cast. Can others step up as well? 348 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 14: And then defensively, can you make life hard on Asia Wilson? 349 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 14: And then, as Kevin pointed out earlier this week, the others. 350 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 14: Even if Asia Wilson goes off, she gets thirty whatever, 351 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 14: How can you contain the others around her? Because I 352 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 14: believe they had three or four other players and double figures, 353 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 14: which usually does not bode well for the fever internationally. 354 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 11: We're ready to get underway fairly soon here with the 355 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 11: next twenty four hours for the Ryder Cup, which will 356 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 11: be up at Bethpage Black. A lot of controversy about 357 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 11: Keigan Bradley being named the team captain for Team Usay, 358 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 11: what do you think, Kevin? You're the golf guy. What 359 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 11: are you thinking about this weekend? Is the Cup coming 360 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 11: back to the United States here? Damn right? 361 00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 4: It is. 362 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: I cannot wait one of my favorite sporting events of 363 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 3: the year, and it is the one time each year 364 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 3: that I will spend seventy two hours rooting for Bryson 365 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 3: to shamba. 366 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 11: He can't play golf, he can? 367 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 3: Do you want a Bryson versus Rory singles match to 368 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 3: decide it on Sunday? 369 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 11: That would be good TV about Scotty. 370 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 3: Versus John Rahm. By the way, Mark, did you happen 371 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 3: to catch missus ram at the opening ceremony? 372 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: I did? 373 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 2: Oh? 374 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 11: I did? 375 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 3: Can see where that lived? 376 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 13: Money? 377 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 11: And when do we get underway?

I love the Waste Management that's great. 387 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 3: That's basically a front where they in bye a. 388 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 11: Golf tournament down there. 389 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 3: Nothing like the Ryder Cup. 390 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 16: That is the one golf tournament where like Ashley will 391 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 16: actually watch it with me because she loves the sixteenth hole. 392 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 3: It does look like a rocket. 393 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 11: You should take her on vacation to Phoenix sometime. 394 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 16: We've been there many times. 395 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 11: We love that area.

Well, the Cubs did their 405 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 11: job last night, Mark, I will say that they beat 406 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 11: up on the New York Mets by a score of 407 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 11: ten to three, but neither the Reds or the Diamondbacks 408 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 11: could take advantage of it. The Reds did rally in 409 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 11: the ninth, trailing two to one. Tyler Stevenson hit a 410 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 11: home run to tie it, and then they gave up 411 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 11: a couple of runs in the eleventh. And in the 412 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 11: bottom of the eleventh, Kevin, they have the bases loaded 413 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 11: and Melvie Marte came up and grounded out double play, 414 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 11: end of the game for two of the Reds lose. 415 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 11: But well, where are you gonna go? Well, they are 416 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 11: still just one game behind the Mets, and remember if 417 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 11: they if they end up tied with the Mets, they 418 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 11: have the tiebreaker. 419 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 16: Kevin, you want to chime in there, Your Reds. 420 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 15: Already dead impersonation by just not talking. 421 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 16: You're starting to feel it a little bit. 422 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 11: The other day, no comment from Kevin Bowen this morning. 423 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 3: That was a one of the more excruciating loss of 424 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 3: gals scenes. First off, you get Paul Skins, Paul skianed 425 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 3: verb through the first six innings and then they're like, 426 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 3: you know what, eighty five pitches, we gotta save them. Glorious. 427 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 3: You get a freaking inside the park home run. I 428 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 3: mean how many inside the park home runs of all 429 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 3: ballparks in that ballpark? And then you get your heart 430 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 3: absolutely ripped out there. You get all the teas of 431 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 3: the Stevenson home run, great American ballpark erupts, all of this, 432 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 3: and then the extra inning loss with the bases loaded 433 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 3: there in the eleventh. The Reds are dead. 434 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 16: This is why I saw a couple of my friends 435 00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 16: who are die hard Reds fans on Twitter and there 436 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 16: this is what the Reds are the Reds these days. 437 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 3: This is one thousand why the Reds are the rest. 438 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 11: And the thing is is Martez the guy who hit 439 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 11: the inside the park home run, He's the one that 440 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 11: grounded out then in the game. 441 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 3: I'd rather have Jeff Record batting than Matt mclin not 442 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 3: these days. 443 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 11: Also, uh, the Dodgers did beat the Diamondbacks by a 444 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 11: score of five before one other baseball note, not only 445 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 11: the Mariners beat the Rockies nine to two to clinch 446 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 11: the American League West.

You imagine what that 520 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 3: watch party is gonna look like Tomorrow night up there, 521 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: Slick and Nancy and Jim Morris and. 522 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 11: Hell I might be as much fun as the game. 523 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: They can bring Jim Mersey over to, you know, watch 524 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 3: things tomorrow night seven thirty. 525 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 526 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 16: I did see the Coles fin out of statement as well, 527 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 16: which that was a very classy game. 528 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 3: Branch Field House there and shout out to Miles Turner. 529 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 3: He had a multiple tweet acknowledgement of Nancy Leonard in 530 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 3: her life and again that embraced after Game six, probably 531 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 3: one of the cooler moments honestly of that playoff run. 532 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 3: So really nice from the former Pacer last night. 533 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 11: And even newcomers. I think it was good for them 534 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 11: to really get into the history of the Pacers and 535 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 11: what was going on as far as Nancy and Slick 536 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 11: is concerned. Maybe you'd heard about them, but didn't really 537 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 11: know what was going on. Main stand Up wrote a 538 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 11: nice text this morning said, it's hard to grasp the 539 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 11: fact that the Pacers ever needed to be saved, because 540 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 11: I'm fortunate enough to see the success they are today. Well, 541 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 11: I don't know what the years leading up to the 542 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 11: telethon looked like. I'm extremely grateful for Nancy and Slick 543 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 11: Leonard's work. I've only been here about twenty months. The 544 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 11: PACER's playoff run was some of the best nights of 545 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 11: my life. I've been looking for a sports community like 546 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 11: this my entire life. I hope be there when Nancy 547 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 11: gets her banner and the Rafters God rest her soul, 548 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 11: a true Hoosier icon through and through. I thought that 549 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 11: was really cool. 550 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 15: Wow, Yeah, it was very classy. 551 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, like that good stuff. So we will be remembering 552 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 11: Nancy throughout the show and forever here at ninety three 553 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 11: five and one oh seven five the Fan. In the meantime, 554 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 11: I was reading the both of you guys's work from 555 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 11: yesterday this morning over coffee as I like to do. 556 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 11: The Dog and I just hang out and we talk 557 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 11: about what you guys have written, and we'll start with 558 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 11: you Kevin I thought you had some of the very 559 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 11: end of your notes, Colin, where since the fumble in 560 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 11: Denver last year, it's almost hard to wrap your head 561 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 11: around how good Jonathan Taylor has been. 562 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I want to say, it's like eight hundred 563 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 3: and fifty eight yards and six games. That is easily 564 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 3: the most in the NFL through that stretch, and I 565 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: believe it's the second most of Taylor's career. I mean, 566 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 3: if you look at it, I want to say, every 567 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 3: game but one has been over one hundred and he 568 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 3: has a two hundred yard game, actually a two hundyard 569 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 3: game the first game after dropping the ball on the 570 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 3: goal line. So I don't want to maybe build too 571 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 3: much into like the oh my gosh, he's been a 572 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 3: changed man since he dropped the ball in the goal line, 573 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 3: But it is quite impressive the six game stretch that 574 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 3: he's on and James, I think a huge storyline to me, 575 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 3: The two biggest storylines for Sunday One, can you disrupt 576 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 3: the elite time eatee of Matthew Stafford? Does your pass 577 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 3: us show up? I guess to put it simply? And 578 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 3: then two, how effective can Jonathan Taylor be across four quarters, 579 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 3: because again in the second halves of this season, he's 580 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 3: been otherworldly and the Rams just did an out standing 581 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 3: job against Saquon Barkley. Barkley at his lowest year of 582 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 3: any game he has been in an Eagles uniform. So 583 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 3: that I think is a really really big storyline for Sunday. 584 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 14: Absolutely, and just diving deeper into the numbers, I think 585 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 14: one of the things that will stand out to me Kevin, 586 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 14: beyond how many yards JT rushes four potentially is just 587 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 14: how to utilize them, because, as I'm laying out in 588 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 14: this piece that I'm looking at right now for the 589 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 14: athletic what's different about JT this year and what we've 590 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,479 Speaker 14: seen in the past, even during like I said, his 591 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 14: first team All Pro season in twenty twenty one, when 592 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 14: he won the league scoring I mean the I scoring 593 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 14: title of rushing title. I'm sorry to get my basketball 594 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 14: and football mixed up here, but they can't take him 595 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 14: off the field. And they didn't say this explicitly in 596 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 14: years past, but the Colts felt like he was a 597 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,439 Speaker 14: liability because they did not play him a lot on 598 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 14: third downs. There were times where we saw him get 599 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 14: taken out and key moments in the fourth quarter where 600 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 14: you're wondering where is your best player? It's because they 601 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 14: didn't trust him to block or to receive and key 602 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 14: moments of the game. And I think that that has 603 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 14: shifted a ton already to the first three games of 604 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 14: this year. 605 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 15: Now, bigger test is coming, I think against the Rams. 606 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 14: But let's say, if he only has forty rushing yards, 607 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 14: who's to say he can't have an impact in the 608 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 14: passing game, whether it's receiving or blocking James. 609 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 3: For the most part, I guess I'm pretty numb to 610 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 3: a lot of the new cycle that happens kind of 611 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 3: in our coverage. Yeah, of the Colts, I will say 612 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 3: yesterday during the press conference, a shiver down the spine 613 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 3: of Kevin Bowen, and not due to a horrific posture 614 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 3: that I've had here when I heard of the a 615 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 3: word from Shane Stiking, that was some shiver action the 616 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 3: calf injury for Kenny Moore the second he's now labeling 617 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 3: it more in the achilles injury. Again, nothing torn, but 618 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 3: damn man, I don't know. When I hear calf turned 619 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 3: to achilles James. 620 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 14: Your mia immediately goes to Tyreus Halliburn. Everyone around here 621 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 14: does at least now. Granted, Tyrouse is playing in his 622 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 14: equivalent of a super Bowl in Game seven of NBA Finals, 623 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 14: so you have more time for kennymore to heal. But 624 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 14: I would not rush this at all, And honestly, I'm 625 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 14: a little surprised that they continue to say that I 626 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 14: are right now, isn't a possibility. 627 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 15: I wonder if that shifts in Just sit him for 628 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,479 Speaker 15: a month, twenty four hours. 629 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 3: I mean, he's playing corner like the quickest, twitchiest position 630 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 3: out there. Well, any sudden movement at corner and I'm like, man, 631 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,719 Speaker 3: you get exposed in a hurry there, I don't hear. 632 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 3: Here's the thing too, Ken, You're gonna ignore Kenny's age. No, 633 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 3: he's twenty older, thirty actually just turned thirty, right, So yeah, boy, 634 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's PTSD, But damn when he 635 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 3: said that yesterday, Oh I got one of those. 636 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 11: Pretty sure the Colts have been paying attention to They're 637 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 11: all sports fans over there, they know what's going on, 638 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 11: and so I'm sure in the back of their mind 639 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 11: they treated as the player an individual, certainly, but they 640 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 11: all saw what we saw too. 641 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 3: This past well, they forgot about it. James made sure 642 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 3: to bring it up. 643 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 10: Man. 644 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 15: Absolutely, yeah. 645 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 14: I didn't know how to phrase the question, but I 646 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 14: was thinking to myself, like, hey, at least around here, man, 647 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 14: we hear calf and achilles. It does not bring back 648 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 14: any good memories. It brings back some of the worst 649 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 14: memories people have had, probably as Pacers fans. And then 650 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 14: it wasn't just the conversation around Tyrese and I wish 651 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 14: I would have had I known, I would have researched 652 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 14: this better to find more NFL examples. But the calf 653 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 14: to achilles tier pipeline, at least in the NBA is 654 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 14: very clear. I mean, Lillard dealt with the same thing, 655 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 14: Kevin Durant dealt with the same thing, and they ended 656 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 14: up rupturing thear achilles. 657 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 15: So it is a bit scary, I. 658 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 16: Think for sure. 659 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 14: And to your point about you know, Kenny plays one 660 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 14: of the more twitchy positions in football. 661 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 16: Let's just be honest here. You can't do anything without 662 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 16: your achilles. 663 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 15: You can't walk. 664 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 14: So whatever position he plays, whatever he's trying to do, 665 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 14: if he's trying to like literally drive, you know, granted 666 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 14: this is his left achilles, but if it was just right, 667 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 14: he couldn't able to do that. So yeah, I'm very 668 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 14: curious to see what the injury report looks like tomorrow 669 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,239 Speaker 14: and if they air on the side of caution and 670 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 14: just say, hey, let's sit you. 671 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 15: No, I'm not saying to be out. 672 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 14: I mean if they announce tomorrow like, hey, this guy's 673 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 14: going on IR for four weeks, four week, which I 674 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 14: think will be a smart decision. 675 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 676 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 3: Again, sometimes the teams do that late in the week, 677 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 3: like Friday or Saturday, they will put a player on 678 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 3: injured reserve to open up a fifty three men roster spot. 679 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 3: And as you guys said, that's a minimum of a 680 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 3: four game absence. Well, they also to note on just 681 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 3: Kenny Moore's availability because again, we don't expect him to 682 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 3: play on Sunday. Mentioned this a little bit earlier in 683 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 3: the week. But when he has missed time, he's missed 684 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 3: I think it's eight games of the last three years, 685 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 3: Colts have given up thirty three points per game in 686 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 3: his absence. That to me is a massive number for 687 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 3: an individual player. Thirty three points per game. I mean, 688 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 3: I guess I could do the reverse of it. What 689 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 3: are the Colts giving up with him in the lineup. 690 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,719 Speaker 3: I would guess that is at least a seven to 691 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 3: ten point difference with or without him. And again, Sunday 692 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 3: is probably the best or if not one of the 693 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 3: best passing offenses you will see all season long. We knew, 694 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 3: we know Puka Nikoua can live out of the slot 695 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 3: and be so dynamic and productive there, so that cannymore 696 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 3: the second loss just massive here in Week four. 697 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think Nikoua is actually leading the league in 698 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 11: yards per game. I think like three hundred and thirty 699 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 11: three at this point in time. And I'm worried for 700 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 11: a lot of different reasons, not just that offense against 701 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 11: what could be a banged up secondary for the Colts, 702 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 11: or is a banged up secondary. You talk about Nikula, 703 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 11: you talk about Adams. We've talked about the running game, 704 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 11: which is underrated with Kyron Williams there and a Super 705 00:31:55,600 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 11: Bowl winning head coach and an offensive mastermind. But guys, defensively, 706 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 11: do you know the Rams are one of I think 707 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 11: three teams in the NFL that have not given up 708 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 11: a rushing touchdown yet this year. 709 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Rams about some nice moments defensively this year. Again, 710 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 3: it's not maybe the Aaron Donald von Miller. You know, 711 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 3: Jalen Ramsey group that it was a few years ago, 712 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 3: but they've really done some nice things on that side 713 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 3: of the ball. And again the availability of Valik Piers 714 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 3: he did miss yesterday in concussion protocol. You know, I 715 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 3: probably should just live in the moment here about what 716 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 3: Sunday could mean for Alec Pierce and you know, Adie 717 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 3: Mitchell possibly having an expanded role. But this might be 718 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 3: a massive game for the future of those two in 719 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 3: a Colts uniform. You know, Alex Peers has not missed 720 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 3: a lot of time in his NFL career. Honestly, I 721 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 3: think maybe the concussions are the only time he's missed. 722 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe there's been one other injury. But 723 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 3: what I'm getting at is, let's say Piers doesn't miss 724 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 3: a lot of time this season, there won't be many 725 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 3: opportunities necessarily for Adie Mitchell to then take those snaps 726 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 3: and try to do something with them. If Adie Mitchell 727 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 3: goes out and has a really good game on Sunday, 728 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 3: then at the end of the year, as the Colts 729 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 3: start to weigh money and think to themselves, Okay, Quenton 730 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 3: Nelson extension Okay, Alec Pierce contract here? Oh yeah, how 731 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 3: much money were we going to pay Danel? Like if 732 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 3: all of that is at play here, an ad Mitchell 733 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: emerging and letting Alec Pierce walk is going to be 734 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 3: a debate that they will have to have. So again, 735 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 3: I probably just live in the present of Sunday's football game, 736 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 3: but I do think there could be some longer term 737 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 3: ramifications off of hey, we have to pass the tourch 738 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 3: somewhere and we might be paying a quarterback money that 739 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 3: maybe we didn't see here in twenty twenty six. So 740 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 3: that's another little storyline to Sunday. 741 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 11: Your piece in the Athletic this morning, James focused a 742 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 11: lot and you mentioned it yesterday kind of teased it 743 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,239 Speaker 11: a little bit that Daniel Jones you can't get him 744 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 11: off his iPad if he's not practicing, and if he's 745 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 11: not talking about things, you can't get him out of 746 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 11: the film room in whatever modern day versions. 747 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 17: Road. 748 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,719 Speaker 11: I'll tell you what a maximone is going to say. 749 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 14: If Maxi Bone is breaking down game film, let me 750 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 14: buy some stock early, you know. But yeah, it was 751 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 14: a fun piece that went out there yesterday morning, and honestly, 752 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 14: Jeff The biggest thing, at least from a writer perspective, 753 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 14: is finding those little nuggets. Obviously that kind of reveal 754 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,720 Speaker 14: how obsessive he is, you know, being late for team dinner. 755 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 14: And you know, we had JT on our airwaves on 756 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 14: Monday saying hey, stop me in the breakfast line, saying hey, 757 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 14: make sure you can remember this play. But beyond that, 758 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 14: all the comments on the story, which I was kind 759 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 14: of surprised to see, are from Giants fans. 760 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,959 Speaker 15: Saying, you know, what the heck? 761 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 14: Basically, you know, yesterday they officially announced their benching Russell 762 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 14: Wilson in favor of Jackson Dart and this fan base 763 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 14: feels like, wait, for the longest time, you told us 764 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 14: it was Daniel Jones and his fault, and now he's 765 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 14: left this franchise. And for the second straight year, we 766 00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 14: have a player that was a star here or we 767 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 14: wanted them to be a star here. Second Barkley was 768 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 14: a flatof star in New York, whereas Daniel Jones had 769 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,959 Speaker 14: like one good year but still back to back years. 770 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 14: Those guys leave and they're having career years, So why 771 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 14: is that the case? And so I think that is 772 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,760 Speaker 14: something that you know, Daniel Jones will probably never speak 773 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 14: on but to have this amount of success early on 774 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 14: now he has to sustain it, obviously, But that has 775 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 14: to feel good somewhere inside of him, knowing that, you know, 776 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 14: from what I've heard from you know, talking to people 777 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 14: who cover the Giants. During the first six years of 778 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,800 Speaker 14: his tenure with that team, the big escape goal there 779 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 14: was always Daniel Jones, and now that scapegoat can't be 780 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 14: used anymore. 781 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 3: I thought one of the best tweets I've seen here 782 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,800 Speaker 3: as we get deeper into the year of twenty twenty 783 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 3: five came on Sunday during the Colts game, and it 784 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 3: was Daniel Jones on the Giants colon, He's going to 785 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 3: get Brian dave Ball fired. Daniel Jones and the Colts colon, 786 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,760 Speaker 3: He's going to get Brian dave Ball fired. 787 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 11: Everybody has a mission in life, Kevin. 788 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 3: I'm like, that is excellent, excellent work. Whoever I should 789 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 3: give credit to, I should give credit to. But yes, 790 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 3: I would say Giants fans are a bit confused and 791 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 3: a bit pissed off by the whole operation. Jackson Dart time. 792 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 3: Did I see that yesterday? Yeah? 793 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 14: Yeah, And they're facing the Chargers this week, I believe, 794 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 14: and the Chargers are one of the better teams in 795 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 14: the NFL right now when it comes to pass defense, 796 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 14: and so I would expect him to struggle, and I 797 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 14: think that that's actually going to go very poorly for them. 798 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 16: I think they might maybe maybe should have I know 799 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 16: they didn't want to watch Russell Wilson anymore. They probably 800 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 16: should have waited till next week when they're playing the Saints. 801 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 14: I thought about that too, But man, we talk about 802 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 14: getting thrown to the fire, and that market is they're 803 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 14: not going to be light on you if you go 804 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 14: out there in stink. So yeah, I read a story 805 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 14: yesterday where they were saying when Brian Dable drafted Jackson 806 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 14: Darty told him, hey, I'm banking on you, and I 807 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 14: would imagine he probably said the same thing Daniel Jones 808 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 14: years ago and it just hasn't worked out. 809 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 16: So good luck with that. I want to marry my 810 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,359 Speaker 16: future to Jackson Dark. 811 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,760 Speaker 3: The Cardinals Seahawks tonight Thursday Night Football. Could you guys 812 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 3: name three Seahawks? 813 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 2: Uh? 814 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 11: First ball start with Sam Darnold? 815 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 3: Uh? 816 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 15: Is it Smith? And Jigba? 817 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 16: Yep, that's the wid wide receiver.

Same outcome when we had DJ at quarterback. 841 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 11: Take a look, it ain't the quarterback. When asked what 842 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 11: he thought the problem was, Neighbors said, don't know everybody 843 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,439 Speaker 11: no better than me, bud he uh. 844 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,360 Speaker 14: I remember that because he was smacking on his gum 845 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 14: so loud in the interview Kevin and I could just 846 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,279 Speaker 14: feel with every smack of the gum how irritated he was. 847 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 16: Would State of the Giants last year, that was something special. 848 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 3: And then Drew Locke came in and said the day. 849 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 14: Oh lord, Coles fans, how much has changed in a year, 850 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 14: because that was nuts. 851 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 11: Kevin has offered us Achilles talk and. 852 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 3: That today I don't want to talk Achilles shange Sike 853 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,439 Speaker 3: and the most, the most transparent he's ever been about 854 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 3: a player's injury. James Boyd was yesterday with Kenny Moore 855 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 3: the second I mean that also absolutely. I really told 856 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 3: us it was a different body part, and it was 857 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 3: the body part you don't want to hear at all. 858 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 3: And for those that were watching the game. Amanda Ballyona's 859 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 3: sideline reporter for CBS, she did describe it pretty vividly 860 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 3: of like Kenny is, you know, I think kind of 861 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 3: like she was saying, you know, rubbing the back of 862 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 3: that left leg in that Achilles area, looked over at 863 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 3: his family kind of went thumbs down again in a boot. 864 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 3: He was at practice yesterday. So we will await and 865 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 3: see any status update. But changstekend once again yesterday I 866 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 3: said that injured reserve is not currently being discussed. 867 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, and again I don't want to blabor it, but 868 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 11: it just feels like they're going to be leaning on 869 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 11: that offense a lot this week because they may they 870 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 11: may have to win a shootout this week. And one 871 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 11: of the things, the other thing that I really liked 872 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 11: about your notes call him too, you pointing out just 873 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 11: how much better Jonathan Taylor has been in the second 874 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 11: half for all these great games that he's had. He 875 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 11: gets the work done in the second half. 876 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's five yards per carry more in the second 877 00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 3: half than the first half, which is just beyond eye popping. 878 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 3: And I think that's what kind of makes the run 879 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 3: game debate difficult. Somebody reached out to me yesterday is like, 880 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 3: I think the Colts should throw more. Well, I can 881 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 3: hear you out. The question with Taylor, though, is are 882 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 3: you setting up the big run in the second half 883 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 3: via the body blows in the first half? And I 884 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 3: think that's one of the tougher debates for a play 885 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 3: caller in the NFL. Are you doing the hey, we 886 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 3: need to commit in the first half to x amount 887 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,399 Speaker 3: of carries because we think in the third or fourth 888 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 3: quarter that Carrie could turn into the big play. Is 889 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,840 Speaker 3: the Denver defender that with don Jonathan Taylor in the 890 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 3: backfield in Week two? Is that because you wore them 891 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 3: down in the first half and now all of a 892 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 3: sudden that plays possible. How many mistackles did Tennessee have 893 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 3: on Taylor's forty six yard touchdown run? A few four 894 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 3: five this time of four? Does that happen in the 895 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 3: first quarter or are you setting that up because at 896 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 3: that point of the game, Taylor had really done nothing 897 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,800 Speaker 3: of note carries forty some yards, so that's. 898 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 14: Also again, they don't have to come off the field either, 899 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 14: which is why I feel like since he's not a 900 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 14: liability in a pass blocking and pass catching anymore, at 901 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 14: least early on. 902 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 3: Some all sample size, he did have one job on Sunday. 903 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 14: Yeah, but again I'll take that in addition to also 904 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 14: having the forty three yard reception he had and Week 905 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 14: two or whatever. But Kevin, I think to piggyback off 906 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 14: your point, the ability to stay out there no matter 907 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 14: what allows you to break a team's will or break 908 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 14: them down later, and that's what we're seeing from JT. 909 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 11: I also think when you look at that wide array 910 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 11: of receivers that the Colts now have, from Pittman to 911 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 11: I know he's hurt right now, but Alec Pierce too 912 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 11: downs and then you got Tyler Warren there. You better 913 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 11: pay attention to twenty eight back there coming out of 914 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 11: the backfield too, because if he gets the ball in space, 915 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 11: it's over. 916 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 15: It's a different type of dum Man. 917 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 3: This from John, I'm really trying to soak it all in. 918 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 3: That said, is Daniel Jones going to be like Ryan 919 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 3: Tannehill to the Titans? The Titans had a good season 920 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 3: or two and then fell off. John adds this, I 921 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 3: think I need to be told I'm crazy and just 922 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:03,919 Speaker 3: enjoy it. Enjoyed for now or about the big picture later. 923 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 11: Here's the one thing I will say, and I've always 924 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 11: thought this about Ryan Tannehill. Remember he was a wide 925 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 11: receiver in college. Coach guys, he was. He's not a 926 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 11: guy that was the quarterback his entire life. But he 927 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 11: had such a great skill set in a way about 928 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 11: him that in college he started to learn to play quarterback. 929 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,839 Speaker 11: And I just wonder, at this level, if there isn't 930 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 11: a part of you. And we look at Anthony Richardson, 931 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 11: you need to have been playing quarterback almost from the 932 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 11: time you were ten twelve years old. Understanding defenses, understanding 933 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 11: what you're doing, building that timing, building that look, building 934 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 11: all those things. And I know Tannehill had some success 935 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 11: as a quarterback, but I always thought maybe that was 936 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 11: something that maybe at this level held him back from 937 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 11: being elite. 938 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 3: Elite were of the Titans the one seed one year 939 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 3: with Tannehill. 940 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 15: Yeah, honestly, that's why that. 941 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 3: Coach I think it was very ye and then we 942 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 3: all see how that's Henry Jonathan Taylor, right, Yeah, maybe 943 00:42:58,560 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 3: it is a little bit more. 944 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 11: Like all right, coming up in a moment, we'll talk 945 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 11: a little bit more about Nancy Leonard, her life and 946 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 11: also the fever coming up with a big playoff game 947 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 11: tomorrow night at the field House. It comes away with 948 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 11: Eddie White next ninety three five and want to seven 949 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 11: five the. 950 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: Fan I saved the best for last. The most important 951 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 1: thing to me, you know, when I was at IU 952 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: in the fall of nineteen fifty, I met my wife, Nancy, the. 953 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 3: Woman that many people would say saved the Indiana Pacers franchise. 954 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 4: The first lady of the Pacers, the great Nancy Leonard. 955 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 5: They said, we're running out of money. We don't have 956 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 5: enough money to pay the salaries of the players. For 957 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 5: some reason, I said, we just need some kind of 958 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 5: exciting activity for the fans, like a telephone. 959 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 6: As of twelve twenty five, we've got an hour and 960 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 6: fifty minutes to. 961 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 3: Go, Bob, We're in eighty twenty eight. 962 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 7: If the Paces don't survive, do we get the Colts 963 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 7: in nineteen eighty four? Does the amateur sports initiative really 964 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 7: take hold as it did in the early eighties. I 965 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 7: think that was really a major major component to Indianapolis 966 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,240 Speaker 7: being able to build itself. Not only is a great town, 967 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 7: but a great sports town. 968 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 8: They helped resurrect the team from almost going into some 969 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 8: sort of financial default. 970 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 5: There were like eight or ten owners of the Paces 971 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 5: that time. They felt they needed a general manager. Pretty soon, 972 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 5: I just said, there are so many people that are 973 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 5: qualified to be a general manager. And I said that 974 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 5: I do feel the teams that seemed to really have 975 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 5: it all together have somebody that have had some involvement 976 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 5: in the sport. And it was bed silence, and I thought, 977 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 5: oh my god, what if, I said, And one of 978 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:48,359 Speaker 5: the owners said, well, then if you know all that, 979 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 5: why don't you do it?

She 1146 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,879 Speaker 4: that's why the Pacements are the longest running dance team 1147 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,720 Speaker 4: in the NBA because she invented it in the ABA days. 1148 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 4: Was a remarkable lady, I mean, and to live that 1149 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 4: long and to have that grain of life both you know, 1150 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 4: personally and professionally. God bless her. She's the greatest Eddie. 1151 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 14: Throughout this most recent Pacers Finals run, I think I 1152 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:32,560 Speaker 14: saw you probably every day, it felt like for like 1153 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 14: two months. But when you see the players, the current players, 1154 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 14: those who you know were born way after the you 1155 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,319 Speaker 14: know telethon and way after Nancy was like this every 1156 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 14: day figure for the franchise. When you see those guys 1157 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 14: show the respect towards her. With Miles Turner after reaching 1158 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,800 Speaker 14: the finals again going over to hug her Tyres Halliburton 1159 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 14: yesterday sharing some of his moments with her after going 1160 00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 14: to the finals. What does that mean to this franchise 1161 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 14: that to have, you know, that sort of love for 1162 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 14: the matriarch. 1163 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 4: Well, you three guys are over there covering that team. 1164 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 4: I've seen you guys, especially you James. You're in there, 1165 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 4: you're at the practices, you're covering. 1166 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 2: You're talking to people. 1167 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,960 Speaker 4: You know. You know the answer that question, and it's 1168 00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 4: a great question. It's a great answer. It's that culture 1169 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 4: that has been built inside and not only just inside 1170 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,359 Speaker 4: the building and Kevin Pritchard, those people get a lot 1171 00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 4: of credit for that, but also the way these guys 1172 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 4: grew up in their respect for whether it's their dad, 1173 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 4: their mom, whoever, whoever brought them up into the world. 1174 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 4: I think they get it. And you and I both know. Hell, 1175 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 4: you know what it was. You know I didn't get 1176 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 4: it to late life. You know, I was an idiot. 1177 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, someon us get it early. Someone's 1178 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 4: get it late, so must never get it. I think 1179 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 4: these guys get it. And and when you see you 1180 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,440 Speaker 4: said it, I mean you saw it when when Miles 1181 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 4: did that, you know, and ty rees And it's not 1182 00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,360 Speaker 4: just the guys who've been here, Reggie Miller been for 1183 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 4: a long time. And no, it's like they seem they're 1184 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 4: here almost immediately and they're struck by you know. There 1185 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 4: they talk and they're like, hey man, you know that 1186 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 4: that lady and and she just it doesn't matter. I mean, 1187 00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,720 Speaker 4: you talk to anybody and whether when you when you leave, 1188 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 4: like Michael Grady's now the enemy, right, he's with Minnesota. 1189 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 4: He comes back, she can't wait to see him and 1190 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 4: hug him. Oh, Michael, Bob loved you. And you know, 1191 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 4: I mean it's like it doesn't matter you are. You 1192 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:29,920 Speaker 4: may no longer be with the Pacers, but in her eyes, 1193 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 4: you're you're a Pacer for life and and there's something 1194 00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 4: special about that. But that was that was a great 1195 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,239 Speaker 4: pickup on you. You're right, You're absolutely right, because you 1196 00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:40,719 Speaker 4: don't listen. You you cover a lot of other things. 1197 00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,760 Speaker 4: You've been around the league. Uh, that's not the norm 1198 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:48,280 Speaker 4: in in the world of sports that kids that young 1199 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 4: get that respect that quick. It doesn't happen everywhere we 1200 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,520 Speaker 4: should be That's another thing we should cherish living here, Eddie. 1201 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 3: I wanted to relay this from a listener. I thought 1202 00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 3: it was an excellent, ex exly idea, and you've got 1203 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 3: more clout over the I mean, hell, you might as 1204 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 3: well be assignment with how much clout you've got this 1205 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 3: from listener. Jeffrey needs to be a statue of Nancy 1206 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 3: and Slick. But what I love the most about this 1207 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:18,279 Speaker 3: is this specific description of said statue. Jeffrey says, arm 1208 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:21,719 Speaker 3: in arm, waving to all attendees who come into the 1209 00:56:21,760 --> 00:56:26,880 Speaker 3: Fieldhouse lobby. I love, love, love that idea. Can you 1210 00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 3: make that happen? 1211 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 4: Well, I know there's been talk about statues and stuff 1212 00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 4: for Reggie Miller and other people, and I don't know 1213 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 4: where that goes. But again, it's talked about all the time, 1214 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 4: and I'm sure they'll come up again. I have always 1215 00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 4: maintained when I run for mayor. I know Jake wants 1216 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,080 Speaker 4: to run for mayor, and he has his initiatives. Mine 1217 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 4: is going to be what is now Georgia Street should 1218 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 4: be called the you know, the the Avenue of Champions, 1219 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:02,480 Speaker 4: and we would have plaque and in some cases statues 1220 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 4: of all the great sports entities that we've ever had 1221 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,880 Speaker 4: in the state of Indiana. Think about that. Because we 1222 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 4: have the National Firefighters, we have national conventions, we have 1223 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 4: worldwide events. Why wouldn't we have a cavalcade, an avenue, 1224 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:20,680 Speaker 4: a channel whatever of whether there's a Rockney plaque or 1225 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 4: there's a thing about Notre names Heiser Trophy winners, there 1226 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 4: a Bob Knight thing, or the greatness of Purdue women's 1227 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 4: basketball and whatever high school basketball tribute to Mylin, the Pacers, 1228 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 4: the Colts, Peyton with auto racing, the bicyclists, all that 1229 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 4: stuff all is along Georgia Street with plaques and statues, 1230 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:43,000 Speaker 4: and it's like, that's what you have to go see 1231 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 4: when you go to Indianapolis, and you'll know more of 1232 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 4: their sports history. And then we just keep adding to 1233 00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 4: it and us. That's my idea and I think we 1234 00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 4: should do that as I run for mayor. 1235 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 3: Can you imagine a mayor debate between Eddie White and 1236 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:02,440 Speaker 3: Jake Quarel. My good lord, you got the telephone you. 1237 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 11: Have to block about six hours there Lord, and you would. 1238 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 4: It would be a filipbuster, and you wouldn't need a moderator. 1239 00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:15,480 Speaker 3: Yes, He'll know you would, and the moderator would get 1240 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 3: in two words. 1241 00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 11: Good good luck to the reporter. Tried to still a 1242 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:22,360 Speaker 11: few soundbites down to the recount.

I mean, how spect has this year 1247 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 4: been NBA Finals, WNB All Star Game and potentially w 1248 00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 4: NBA Finals. It's fantastic. Colt's doing so well. Notre Dame 1249 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 4: finally won a game, Kevin, thank god. Defense stinks. But hey, 1250 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 4: maybe if Bengals lose another game and get al golden. 1251 00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 11: Back on that note, Eddie, have a great day, buddy, 1252 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:56,120 Speaker 11: I'll see you soon. 1253 00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:58,920 Speaker 4: You pay should go Fever go irish. 1254 00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:01,960 Speaker 11: You know he's going down that long list of things 1255 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:03,960 Speaker 11: that have happened in the city just this year, and 1256 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:08,080 Speaker 11: we didn't even get to the annual NCAA tournament games 1257 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 11: that get played here. But what about the Olympic Trials, 1258 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,919 Speaker 11: which I still think was just an electric event. Over 1259 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 11: at the field at the Lucas Oil. Yeah.

We kind of just have to fight 1270 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 14: for it. 1271 00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:43,240 Speaker 11: And so but yeah, I say this all the time 1272 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 11: as somebody who's lived at different parts of this country 1273 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 11: and worked at networks and coming this is day in, 1274 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 11: day out and doesn't always mean a championship, But this 1275 00:59:54,600 --> 01:00:00,160 Speaker 11: is the greatest sports city in America. Final fours, championship games, 1276 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 11: championship games, NCAA tournament games, when there's not a Final 1277 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 11: four Olympic swim trials.

Colts try to remain undefeated. 1307 01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 11: I know the Rams came up just short against the 1308 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:31,000 Speaker 11: Philadelphia Eagles, but Kevin Bow and the Rams are no joke. 1309 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 11: They're as good as any team in the NFL. This 1310 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 11: will be a great test. 1311 01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't wait. It's gonna be an awesome, awesome test. 1312 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 3: Colts about three and a half point underdog, and they 1313 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,919 Speaker 3: have you know, really a certainly weeks one and three, 1314 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 3: and you know, got that one in Week two, a 1315 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:46,160 Speaker 3: little bit of help. They have been dominant in those 1316 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 3: games against Miami and Tennessee. And now it's a great 1317 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:53,439 Speaker 3: different challenge against a quarterback that James Boyd. I didn't 1318 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,640 Speaker 3: think James Steichen was heighting his Matthew Stafford praise at all. 1319 01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 3: Yesterday he was gushing about Stafford, the toughness of Matthew Stafford, 1320 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:05,280 Speaker 3: and I think it's just an awesome barometer waiting for 1321 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 3: the Colts here coming up at Sunday. 1322 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,480 Speaker 14: Absolutely, I would concur with Shane Steike and I think 1323 01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 14: Matthew Stafford is one of the best quarterbacks ever I'm 1324 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 14: not sure if he's a Hall of Famer because the 1325 01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:19,040 Speaker 14: individual accolades, I mean, the county stats aren't there. 1326 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 15: You know how the Hall of Fame is. 1327 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,439 Speaker 3: Though he's a Hall of Famer, I agree with you. 1328 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 14: But you know how the hall of Fame is with 1329 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 14: the nflint the NBA, where he just let everybody in 1330 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:30,000 Speaker 14: the basketball Hall of Fame, but neither he nor they are. 1331 01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 14: He is still to this day, I think a rgably 1332 01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 14: top five quarterback in the game and someone who will 1333 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:37,960 Speaker 14: certainly give the Colts fits. If they aren't able to 1334 01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 14: get pressure on him. 1335 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 11: Well they're gonna struggle maybe in the secondary as well. 1336 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:43,440 Speaker 11: Not only does which is why you got to get 1337 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 11: pressure on the Rams have guys like Puka Nakua and 1338 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:50,480 Speaker 11: Devonte Adams and Matthew Stafford slinging it, but injury concerns 1339 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,440 Speaker 11: starting to mount up in that secondary. 1340 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 15: Now, Yeah, absolutely. 1341 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 14: I mean we've had a chance to talk to Mike 1342 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:59,840 Speaker 14: Hilton yesterday newly acquired, newly signed.

He filed a 1376 01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,240 Speaker 11: lawsuit in early August challenging the NC Double a's five 1377 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 11: year eligibility rule, arguing his three years at Navarro Junior 1378 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 11: College in Texas should not count against his eligibility. According 1379 01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 11: to the court document filed, Judge Dale Tillery ruled that 1380 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:43,040 Speaker 11: the NC doublea's eligibility rule violated the Texas Anti Trust Acts. 1381 01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 11: So good news for the Loosiers there. 1382 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,880 Speaker 14: And bad news for me because I feel like, after 1383 01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:49,840 Speaker 14: you obliterate my line out of the way you did, 1384 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 14: you can sit on for the rest of the year. 1385 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,880 Speaker 14: You don't have to keep playing.

But that would take a pick in 1402 01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:41,240 Speaker 3: the in the trenches. Can Indiana do that again? Because 1403 01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 3: if they are legit in the trenches, then I think 1404 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 3: we talk about this Indiana team in a different, different, 1405 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 3: different light as one of the legit top five ish 1406 01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:51,240 Speaker 3: teams in college football. 1407 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:55,000 Speaker 11: And not to Dame plays on the road at SEC Arkansas. 1408 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 11: That's a noon kick, Kevin.

They tied it up in the 1424 01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:35,480 Speaker 11: ninth on a Tyler Stevenson home run that followed it 1425 01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:39,040 Speaker 11: earlier inside the park home run by Nolvie Marte, and 1426 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:42,040 Speaker 11: then in the the twelfth, in or the eleventh inning, 1427 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:44,960 Speaker 11: with the bases loaded, Marte came up again and grounded 1428 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 11: out to end the game, and the Pirates win it 1429 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 11: by a score of four to three, and they remained 1430 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:52,840 Speaker 11: one game behind the Mets, who were defeated by the 1431 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:55,040 Speaker 11: Cubs ten to three.

Matter fact, my mom would 1463 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 14: just be disgusted if I ever had that nickname, But Mama, 1464 01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 14: I would say, how I was a bawler fever. 1465 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:22,400 Speaker 11: Play tomorrow night at home at the field House. It's 1466 01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:25,639 Speaker 11: Game three of their semi final best of five series 1467 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 11: with the Las Vegas Aces. They got the split in 1468 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:31,680 Speaker 11: Las Vegas earlier this week. They'll try to protect now 1469 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 11: their home court advantage that they've stolen away. 1470 01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 2: JB. 1471 01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:37,680 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean this is a huge game tomorrow. I 1472 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:41,360 Speaker 14: mean it's a very obvious statement. But beyond that, I think, 1473 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:44,320 Speaker 14: did you get a little more rest by having a 1474 01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 14: couple days off? You're backing you home arena, will your 1475 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:49,120 Speaker 14: role players play a little bit better? And can you 1476 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 14: get their role players? Which I mean the Aces have 1477 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 14: a bunch of Hall of Hammers on their side, but 1478 01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:55,920 Speaker 14: can you get the others to kind of drop a level. 1479 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 14: Even if Asia Wilson gets hers, I think we're all 1480 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:01,839 Speaker 14: in agreeance here. Hey, if she's score is thirty, that's fine. 1481 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,160 Speaker 14: Letting the lista sen your hot points. You have to 1482 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 14: make sure Juel Lloyd sees a few different bodies there. 1483 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:08,639 Speaker 14: Doesn't have a good homecoming to the state of Indiana 1484 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:10,600 Speaker 14: the former Notre Dame stars. So things like that I 1485 01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:12,240 Speaker 14: think are huge. And even like I got a player 1486 01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:14,800 Speaker 14: like Dana Evans, good player, but you can't have her. 1487 01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:16,639 Speaker 14: Let let her have heerforms like she did in game two. 1488 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,919 Speaker 3: Do your role players travel on the road in playoffs? 1489 01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:22,360 Speaker 3: I think that's always a huge, huge storyline. Yeah, and 1490 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:26,320 Speaker 3: for the Pacers Odyssey Sims yesterday I called her landa Stevenson. 1491 01:09:26,840 --> 01:09:29,479 Speaker 3: Sorry for the fever. You need good Lance, you need 1492 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:32,680 Speaker 3: good Odyssey Sims coming up here tomorrow night. But yea, 1493 01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:34,760 Speaker 3: it should be hell of an environment.

They don't have two bad games in 1500 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:50,880 Speaker 14: a row, so I'll expect her to be on her 1501 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:52,800 Speaker 14: p's and q's very very much. 1502 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:53,719 Speaker 16: So Tomorrow night. 1503 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,840 Speaker 11: We'll get the latest one injuries and the insight with 1504 01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,599 Speaker 11: Scott Agnes is the Fever play Tomorrow night seven thirty 1505 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 11: tip airtime with that Garrison and the fan pregame show 1506 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,800 Speaker 11: at seven point fifteen.

I mean, she was so kind, 1534 01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:25,599 Speaker 17: so witty, so loyal and in just an omnipresent person 1535 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:29,599 Speaker 17: around Gamebridge Fieldhouse. That's why I was so notable last season, 1536 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,679 Speaker 17: why she was away and not there for so often. 1537 01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:35,360 Speaker 17: But I'm just so thrilled that she was able to 1538 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 17: be there and enjoy that playoff run all the way 1539 01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 17: back to the NBA Finals. She was able to take 1540 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:44,479 Speaker 17: part in that in that game six against the Knicks, 1541 01:11:44,479 --> 01:11:47,439 Speaker 17: and just to see the Pacers poor love into her 1542 01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:51,640 Speaker 17: after the win and the celebrate and the hugs and 1543 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 17: just all that different stuff. 1544 01:11:53,439 --> 01:11:55,720 Speaker 2: But this is a giant. 1545 01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:58,679 Speaker 17: Of the lost, obviously for the Pacers in this city. 1546 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:03,720 Speaker 14: Scott, you were there firsthand, like many of us were, 1547 01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:07,479 Speaker 14: when we saw Miles Turner after the Pacers punch tickets 1548 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:09,960 Speaker 14: to the finals go over to hug Nancy Leonard who 1549 01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:13,519 Speaker 14: saw several players do that throughout that run and kind 1550 01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:17,040 Speaker 14: of give her that opportunity and that shine. And so 1551 01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 14: when you see the current players and also past players 1552 01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:23,200 Speaker 14: and everyone sort of look at her as the matriarch, 1553 01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:26,280 Speaker 14: what do you think that says about what she meant 1554 01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:30,280 Speaker 14: to this franchise, beyond what her legacy meant alongside Slick Leonard, 1555 01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 14: but just as her standalone icon that she is. 1556 01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:37,200 Speaker 17: Yeah, And there's so many different elements to it, right. 1557 01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:40,599 Speaker 17: It's from one standpoint, it's the hut or excuse, it's 1558 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,120 Speaker 17: the wife of Flick, but then it's also being the 1559 01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:46,800 Speaker 17: assistant GM and then it's really also just being the connector. 1560 01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 17: I mean, she's hosting dinner parties for so many different people. 1561 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:54,400 Speaker 17: She got so many Pacers set up. She was a 1562 01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:57,400 Speaker 17: real estate agent. She used to get many Pacers set 1563 01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:01,240 Speaker 17: up with their house and to just be I'm comfortable, 1564 01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:04,080 Speaker 17: like we saw. Even Myles Turner tweets say, you know 1565 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:06,559 Speaker 17: the when I got here to Indianapolis, she was one 1566 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,840 Speaker 17: of the first people that kind of made this feel 1567 01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 17: like a home to me. And I just can't say 1568 01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 17: how many times. She was just someone that you love 1569 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:19,320 Speaker 17: to be around, that made you smile, that always made 1570 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:23,800 Speaker 17: you feel welcome. And with this Pacers organization in particular, 1571 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 17: I mean especially years ago, they I mean the stats crew, 1572 01:13:30,160 --> 01:13:33,080 Speaker 17: ball boys, all those different people would hang out, whether 1573 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,559 Speaker 17: at the Leonard's house or at the player's house. It 1574 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:38,639 Speaker 17: was just a whole different world back then, and how 1575 01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:43,360 Speaker 17: connected all these individuals were, and it all revolved around 1576 01:13:43,960 --> 01:13:44,839 Speaker 17: Nancy and Slick. 1577 01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 3: It's gotta be quite the watch party tomorrow upstairs, if 1578 01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:51,719 Speaker 3: you will, I'm sure for Nancy and Slick and many 1579 01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 3: others there. Jim Morris watching the Fever play a big time, 1580 01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:58,960 Speaker 3: big time game, Game three of the Western e I 1581 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 3: shouldn't say the Western of the w NBA Semi Finals 1582 01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:05,200 Speaker 3: game just best of five. So this one carries a 1583 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:07,800 Speaker 3: ton of way you were out there in Vegas for 1584 01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:11,599 Speaker 3: Games one and two. If I removed Asia Wilson Scott 1585 01:14:12,040 --> 01:14:15,599 Speaker 3: and if I removed Kelsey Mitchell from the storylines, well, 1586 01:14:15,640 --> 01:14:17,960 Speaker 3: what do you think is the biggest one for tomorrow night. 1587 01:14:20,400 --> 01:14:23,120 Speaker 17: I think it's got to be the physicality just overall 1588 01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:26,000 Speaker 17: of both this series and the way in which this 1589 01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:27,160 Speaker 17: league is officiated. 1590 01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 2: I thought it was notable, Gabe. 1591 01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:31,600 Speaker 17: After the game you have Stephanie who White come in 1592 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:33,960 Speaker 17: there and said, hey, they were calling everything. We couldn't 1593 01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:38,439 Speaker 17: find any rhythm or flow because it's just whistle after whistle. 1594 01:14:39,040 --> 01:14:41,800 Speaker 17: And then immediately after that you have Becky Hammond come 1595 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:44,720 Speaker 17: in and go, you know, what are we. 1596 01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:47,080 Speaker 2: Doing with this physicality? 1597 01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:51,280 Speaker 17: I mean wide receivers aren't allowed this much contact after 1598 01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:54,320 Speaker 17: that five yards, like, what are we doing here? And 1599 01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:58,320 Speaker 17: so just too to me, it's a physicality, it's the fouls, 1600 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:00,280 Speaker 17: it's the way in which the game is official. It's 1601 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 17: something that the whole league needs to get cleaned up now, 1602 01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 17: with these two teams in particular, I'd probably go down 1603 01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 17: to Lexi. 1604 01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:10,280 Speaker 2: Hall and her availability and how how. 1605 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 17: How impactful she's able to be, Like I thought it 1606 01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 17: was remarkable how she was able to knock down those 1607 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:21,559 Speaker 17: five threes given how she was feeling, because you could 1608 01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:23,640 Speaker 17: see a shoot around and I even asked her. I 1609 01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:26,599 Speaker 17: was like, Hey, how's the body doing right now? And 1610 01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:29,960 Speaker 17: she smiled, trying not to give away too much, but 1611 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:32,640 Speaker 17: was basically like, yeah, we're going through it, but everybody's 1612 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:36,400 Speaker 17: going through it, and uh, we'll see. And so I 1613 01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:39,720 Speaker 17: think oftentimes when players are going through an injury like that, 1614 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:44,720 Speaker 17: sometimes maybe maybe like a shot is better because they're 1615 01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 17: not thinking about that part of it. 1616 01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:48,280 Speaker 4: They're not overthinking. 1617 01:15:47,760 --> 01:15:50,640 Speaker 17: Or or whatever. And that led to her having a 1618 01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:52,800 Speaker 17: good shooting night from outside. 1619 01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:55,240 Speaker 11: What's this game look like if it goes well for 1620 01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:57,840 Speaker 11: the fever, Like, what's the flow? The flow, the pace? 1621 01:15:57,920 --> 01:15:58,639 Speaker 11: What what happens? 1622 01:15:58,720 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1623 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:04,080 Speaker 17: Yeah, I think early on it's them probably having the 1624 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,920 Speaker 17: lead after the first quarter like they did in the 1625 01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:10,479 Speaker 17: first what four games in the postseason. It's it's dictating pace. 1626 01:16:10,520 --> 01:16:13,320 Speaker 17: The fact that they didn't have any fast break points 1627 01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:16,240 Speaker 17: at halftime in just four for the game. Jeff, that's unacceptable. 1628 01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 17: That's not gonna win them games, just because of how 1629 01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:21,479 Speaker 17: much they and just like the paces are predicated on 1630 01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:23,760 Speaker 17: getting stops, on getting out and on the run. And 1631 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 17: getting the defense struggling there. I think it's having a 1632 01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 17: couple other players in double figures, whether you know, outside 1633 01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:38,000 Speaker 17: of the obvious ones. I think that's important. And then 1634 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,240 Speaker 17: the other thing is I didn't mind Ajia Wilson having 1635 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,840 Speaker 17: twenty five points. To me, it was the others. It 1636 01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:47,679 Speaker 17: was having the Aces have two bench players in double 1637 01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 17: figures for example, that was concerning. And then I think 1638 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:53,640 Speaker 17: the other point here is it's got to be at 1639 01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 17: least twenty five points. Probably for Kelsey Mitchell. She doesn't 1640 01:16:56,600 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 17: have to go for forty, but she has to hold 1641 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 17: you up on the high in there with twenty five 1642 01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:02,599 Speaker 17: to thirty points to have a chance. 1643 01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:04,479 Speaker 14: Well, I'll tell you what, Scott, she didn't have to 1644 01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:06,240 Speaker 14: go for forty, but I wouldn't mind seeing it. I 1645 01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:10,320 Speaker 14: believe that would be a Fever postseason record. Last one 1646 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,599 Speaker 14: from me, not a very serious question. But what are 1647 01:17:12,600 --> 01:17:15,360 Speaker 14: we thinking for tomorrow? You're going suit and tie again? 1648 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:17,040 Speaker 14: You know, I just want to make sure that that 1649 01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:18,639 Speaker 14: when when I walk by, do you know, I. 1650 01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:20,080 Speaker 11: Make sure you love Yeah? 1651 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:20,960 Speaker 15: Yeah, I just want to make. 1652 01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:22,519 Speaker 14: Sure when you know, when I walk by, I keep 1653 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:24,679 Speaker 14: up my distance from him to make sure people don't 1654 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 14: think that I'm like his security or something, because you know, Scott, 1655 01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:29,479 Speaker 14: you were very dapper last week, so we were you 1656 01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:30,280 Speaker 14: going suit and tie in? 1657 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:32,280 Speaker 11: Probably? 1658 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:35,600 Speaker 15: Yeah, all right, what a professional?

You got a nice hoodie by the way, that 1666 01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:48,599 Speaker 17: looks sharp. 1667 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,160 Speaker 15: Thank you, sir, see that? Yeah, I know, I know 1668 01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:51,719 Speaker 15: my role. 1669 01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 11: Hey real quickly before we let you go to I 1670 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:56,559 Speaker 11: know there was a couple of Pacer related moves this 1671 01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 11: week as far as the Pacer signing, But what do 1672 01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:01,759 Speaker 11: you think of Thomas Bryant taking off for the Cavaliers. 1673 01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:04,479 Speaker 17: Yeah, I think that was a situation where he's just 1674 01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 17: looking for an option non guaranteed contract, and this time 1675 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 17: of the year, if you're signing, it's you're just looking 1676 01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:14,240 Speaker 17: to try to show what you can do throughout a 1677 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:19,559 Speaker 17: training camp and then into the regular season and see. 1678 01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:20,360 Speaker 2: If you can hang on there. 1679 01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:23,800 Speaker 17: So I think it was a good match and a 1680 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:26,240 Speaker 17: good fine for the Pacers last year. But then they 1681 01:18:26,320 --> 01:18:29,040 Speaker 17: moved on and he needed to find a new opportunity 1682 01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:32,040 Speaker 17: and now he's right there with maybe the favorites in 1683 01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:32,479 Speaker 17: the East. 1684 01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 2: It's wide open though. 1685 01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:35,200 Speaker 11: All right, buddy, we'll let you go.

Have you familiar 1704 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 11: with James Boyd with one of your compatriots at the 1705 01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:31,519 Speaker 11: Athletic I know there's a million writers. Are Larry Holder? 1706 01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:32,200 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1707 01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:33,080 Speaker 15: I know Larry Holder? 1708 01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:34,880 Speaker 14: He said, I'm Patriots. I feel like I'm like I'm 1709 01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:36,920 Speaker 14: going the army or something. But yes, I have a 1710 01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:38,280 Speaker 14: friend that named Larry Holder. 1711 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,840 Speaker 11: He wrote a piece about sports trading cards centered around 1712 01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:46,679 Speaker 11: Daniel Jones this week, and he says, according to market Movers, 1713 01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:50,519 Speaker 11: which tracks online card sales data, the price for Jones 1714 01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:54,800 Speaker 11: card has trampoline up three and fifty one percent from 1715 01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:57,759 Speaker 11: this time a year ago compared to other Prism Silver 1716 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:01,639 Speaker 11: Quarterback rookie cards. It's not a crazy expensive card by 1717 01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 11: any means, with the sale of one hundred and eighty 1718 01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 11: five dollars acrering Monday. Still it displays just how far 1719 01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:08,800 Speaker 11: off the hobby map Jones had fallen, as the card 1720 01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:11,960 Speaker 11: was selling for only forty one dollars a year a 1721 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:15,719 Speaker 11: year ago, as he was toiling with the New York Giants. 1722 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 11: And then he says, there's Jones twenty nineteen, Don Russ's 1723 01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:23,519 Speaker 11: Optic Downtown his PSA ten rookie insert card. It sold 1724 01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:25,800 Speaker 11: for as low as three hundred and fifty dollars in March. 1725 01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:29,439 Speaker 11: As of Monday, it sold for one thousand, three hundred 1726 01:20:29,479 --> 01:20:34,320 Speaker 11: and twenty five dollars. He's making that the market never lies, James. 1727 01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:36,519 Speaker 15: Everybody is in on Indiana Jones. 1728 01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:40,000 Speaker 16: I guess, oh, there's a lot of trading card jargon. 1729 01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:43,280 Speaker 3: There. 1730 01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:44,559 Speaker 11: I believe that there are a lot of people out 1731 01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:46,240 Speaker 11: there listening right now. They're not in their head. 1732 01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:48,519 Speaker 16: Do I have a good hol address graphic chars Aard, 1733 01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:49,360 Speaker 16: that's I need to know. 1734 01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 11: I need to fine valuable. That's big in my household. 1735 01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 11: The Charzard cards. Man, it's a. 1736 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 16: Series one, first edition. 1737 01:20:56,400 --> 01:20:56,760 Speaker 3: Let me know. 1738 01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:59,160 Speaker 11: The point of the story is the market never lies, 1739 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:01,280 Speaker 11: and Daniel Jones is becoming popular. 1740 01:21:02,960 --> 01:21:06,639 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think when you're good and you win, I guess, yeah, 1741 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 3: people want your trading card. I guess it's the moral 1742 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:11,720 Speaker 3: to that story. And you know, there's a lot of 1743 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:14,439 Speaker 3: things that obviously stand out. I thought Shane kind of 1744 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 3: deadpanned a little bit James yesterday, and you know, I asked, Okay, 1745 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:22,920 Speaker 3: what's been the most impressive thing like there's so many 1746 01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:27,520 Speaker 3: impressive numbers. To Daniel Jones, what's been the most impressive? 1747 01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 3: And I thought Shane had a rare moment where he's 1748 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:35,000 Speaker 3: like he acknowledged how impressive he's been by just saying, yeah, 1749 01:21:35,040 --> 01:21:37,600 Speaker 3: there are a lot of good numbers right now, and 1750 01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 3: in a Shane Stike in way, that was him flexing 1751 01:21:42,840 --> 01:21:46,240 Speaker 3: and like that was him wanting to acknowledge what he 1752 01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:49,559 Speaker 3: and his quarterback have done here. And again, there are 1753 01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:51,599 Speaker 3: so many things you can point to. To me, it's 1754 01:21:52,479 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 3: the end stride, accuracy, the willingness to continue to take 1755 01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 3: shots down the field and hit on those, and then 1756 01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:00,679 Speaker 3: the no negatives, as we talk talked a lot about 1757 01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:02,920 Speaker 3: on Monday Show. I know that probably is the single 1758 01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:05,320 Speaker 3: thing that stands out, and it's probably just the old 1759 01:22:05,360 --> 01:22:07,240 Speaker 3: s word, and I know Shane said it a million 1760 01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,000 Speaker 3: times in the offseason and we probably overlooked it too much, 1761 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 3: But it's the old consistency and that's exactly what Daniel 1762 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 3: Jones has been. He has been consistent. I saw the 1763 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,360 Speaker 3: NFL put at a stat He's the only quarterback through 1764 01:22:19,360 --> 01:22:21,120 Speaker 3: three weeks with at least two hundred and twenty five 1765 01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:24,200 Speaker 3: passing yards at least one touchdown at least zero picks 1766 01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:27,479 Speaker 3: in each of those three games. So that's what you want. 1767 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:31,000 Speaker 3: You don't want volatility, and within games he's had that, 1768 01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:34,559 Speaker 3: and it's been a remarkable, remarkable start to the season 1769 01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 3: for him. 1770 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 11: Question is is it sustainable? That's what we're all waiting 1771 01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:41,639 Speaker 11: to see. It's three games of a seventeen game season. 1772 01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 11: We're excited, we're happy, we're having fun. They getting a 1773 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:48,080 Speaker 11: real test on Sunday afternoon, James, in so many different ways. 1774 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,479 Speaker 14: Oh yes, I'm looking forward to this, you know, for 1775 01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:52,760 Speaker 14: other reasons beyond the game. I mean, La is not 1776 01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:53,240 Speaker 14: a bad. 1777 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 11: Place to be. He's the capital of Jugaber. 1778 01:22:55,160 --> 01:22:55,680 Speaker 3: There you go. 1779 01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,479 Speaker 14: But yeah, I certainly think this is where you can 1780 01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:01,120 Speaker 14: go out there and take your respect. And I say 1781 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,960 Speaker 14: take because no one's going to give that to you, 1782 01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:05,840 Speaker 14: especially in this market. 1783 01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:08,040 Speaker 15: With this team. You haven't been to the playoffs since 1784 01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:08,559 Speaker 15: twenty twenty. 1785 01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:10,599 Speaker 14: You have won a playoff games twenty eighteen, so there's 1786 01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:14,080 Speaker 14: no reason for as you always lud to Jeff, national 1787 01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:16,400 Speaker 14: media or people outside of this city to believe in 1788 01:23:16,439 --> 01:23:19,080 Speaker 14: your team. And so this is an opportunity for you 1789 01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:20,599 Speaker 14: to kind of get into that little bit of a 1790 01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:23,439 Speaker 14: you know, foxhole and again we're not going off to 1791 01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:26,960 Speaker 14: war here, but hey, you got your guys with you, 1792 01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:28,800 Speaker 14: rally around each other and have a chance to do 1793 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:30,599 Speaker 14: something special out west and go to four and oh 1794 01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:32,559 Speaker 14: and again this is a team. I think the Rams 1795 01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 14: are very good and tactically they're usually very good at 1796 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,519 Speaker 14: taking away what you do best. We saw that last 1797 01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:41,920 Speaker 14: week with the Eagles where they again held Sakwon Barkley 1798 01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:44,080 Speaker 14: to two point six yards per carry I want to say, 1799 01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:46,600 Speaker 14: under fifty yards on the ground overall, and that was 1800 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,400 Speaker 14: after he had went off last year in that playoff 1801 01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:52,760 Speaker 14: game against them. So they don't usually lose or you know, 1802 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:54,840 Speaker 14: have the same type of approach twice. They're going to 1803 01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 14: make things hard on you and it should be a 1804 01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:57,519 Speaker 14: good game. 1805 01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:00,759 Speaker 11: You guys talked to quarterbacks and co which is today 1806 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:02,519 Speaker 11: is for the other teams, is to how that goes? 1807 01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:06,960 Speaker 3: No longer, Yeah you don't. I haven't done that for 1808 01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:10,760 Speaker 3: a few years now. No more, uh, visiting player or 1809 01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:11,840 Speaker 3: head coach conference call. 1810 01:24:12,080 --> 01:24:13,920 Speaker 11: So they used to be the best thing. Every Thursday. 1811 01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:15,599 Speaker 11: You get like ten minutes with the coach in five 1812 01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:16,519 Speaker 11: minutes with the quarterback. 1813 01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:18,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I feel like they stop that 1814 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:22,679 Speaker 3: probably right around COVID. Honestly. One thing I think also 1815 01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:26,080 Speaker 3: to keep in mind too about Sunday. And you know, 1816 01:24:26,280 --> 01:24:29,200 Speaker 3: we had this discussion a lot last year, you know, 1817 01:24:29,240 --> 01:24:33,679 Speaker 3: beating legit quarterbacks, and you know, I, I know Tua's 1818 01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 3: not look good at all this season, but like I 1819 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:39,479 Speaker 3: still consider week one, you beating a quality court and 1820 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,639 Speaker 3: you making a quality quarterback in two a look god awful. 1821 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:45,400 Speaker 3: I think maybe that's what really stands out to be 1822 01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:48,920 Speaker 3: about Week one. There's no debating Matthew Stafford as a quarterback, 1823 01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:52,200 Speaker 3: and it's your longest road trip of the year. It's 1824 01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:54,720 Speaker 3: a quality opponent on both sides of the ball, and 1825 01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:56,800 Speaker 3: it's a guy that I think should be a Hall 1826 01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:59,519 Speaker 3: of Famer, no questions asked. I mean that is a 1827 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:03,040 Speaker 3: that's challenge, that's a big challenge, and it's part of 1828 01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:07,080 Speaker 3: the barmeter of like, man, can you imagine checking that box? 1829 01:25:07,160 --> 01:25:10,200 Speaker 3: I mean, the Colts have been thorough certainly weeks one 1830 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:13,639 Speaker 3: and three, but now you face this sort of challenge. 1831 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:16,880 Speaker 3: I think it's just a great, great test. And you know, 1832 01:25:16,920 --> 01:25:20,080 Speaker 3: I thought Shane Psychem, you know, in a way, kind 1833 01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:24,559 Speaker 3: of acknowledged it yesterday and have really embraced that. So 1834 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 3: I think that aspect of Sunday is exciting too. Because 1835 01:25:28,439 --> 01:25:30,559 Speaker 3: the Raiders next week, the Cardinals the week after that, 1836 01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:33,360 Speaker 3: it's not gonna have the same juice to it. And yeah, 1837 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:35,559 Speaker 3: sure there are other games on the schedule. We'll see 1838 01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:36,960 Speaker 3: where the Chiefs are in a couple of months, and 1839 01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:39,000 Speaker 3: you got the Chargers here in a few weeks. But 1840 01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:41,559 Speaker 3: this one, to me is kind of a big one. Yes, 1841 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:44,280 Speaker 3: it is September, but still I think it can be 1842 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:46,120 Speaker 3: a big feather in the cap. And if you're ranking 1843 01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:49,160 Speaker 3: regular season wins, which I don't know, maybe that's stupid 1844 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:51,559 Speaker 3: to do, it would be one of the biggest wins 1845 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:54,640 Speaker 3: this franchise has had in years, no doubt about it, 1846 01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:56,600 Speaker 3: in years. If they're able to go out there and 1847 01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 3: get it done. 1848 01:25:57,120 --> 01:25:59,240 Speaker 11: All right, big week coming up for the Colts, also 1849 01:25:59,240 --> 01:26:01,840 Speaker 11: a pretty big weekend for college football around here, all 1850 01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:05,200 Speaker 11: of a sudden national implications for everybody in our state 1851 01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,360 Speaker 11: as they're getting ready to play on Saturday. We'll talk 1852 01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:09,280 Speaker 11: about that next as we continue ninety three five and 1853 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 11: one O seven five mark rating my playlist again the 1854 01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:18,200 Speaker 11: Great Tom Petty good One, Good morning, every one, Happy Thursday. 1855 01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:20,760 Speaker 11: NFL Week four starts tonight. Got a Thursday night game 1856 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:25,160 Speaker 11: coming from the NFC West be Seattle and Arizona. Of course, 1857 01:26:25,200 --> 01:26:28,160 Speaker 11: the NFC West pertinent to us this week is we 1858 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 11: take our shot at and when I say we, the 1859 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:33,559 Speaker 11: Indianapolis Colts says football fans will all be watching that 1860 01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 11: game on a Sunday afternoon four five out in Los Angeles. 1861 01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:38,720 Speaker 11: We've been talking about it all day long. If you 1862 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:41,880 Speaker 11: missed it earlier, please do yourself a favorite goal. Look 1863 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:44,519 Speaker 11: at the great stuff that both James Boyd and Kevin 1864 01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:47,040 Speaker 11: Bowen are putting out KB in your notes called that 1865 01:26:47,080 --> 01:26:49,679 Speaker 11: you did post yesterday, we were talking about Jonathan Taylor, 1866 01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 11: who was back to back AFC Player of the Week. 1867 01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 11: But just some of the jaw dropping numbers he's been 1868 01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:59,240 Speaker 11: putting up since that fumble in Denver last last year. 1869 01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 11: It's just been mind boggling what he's been doing. 1870 01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:06,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, leads to the league in rushing since that game, 1871 01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:09,599 Speaker 3: and I think it's the second best stretch of his career. 1872 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:13,800 Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't want to make probably too much 1873 01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 3: of the fumble and you know, oh that all of 1874 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:19,280 Speaker 3: a sudden inspired him or anything like that, but it 1875 01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:22,040 Speaker 3: is notable just how great he has been in the 1876 01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 3: last six games, And like we talked about earlier in 1877 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 3: the show, it's a huge storyline for Sunday. The Rams 1878 01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:31,360 Speaker 3: were outstanding against Saquon Barkley last week. And it's not 1879 01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:35,760 Speaker 3: a very household name Rams defense, but they were really 1880 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 3: really good last week and especially against Barkley, So big storyline. 1881 01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,479 Speaker 3: I think those are the two that I keep on 1882 01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:46,080 Speaker 3: coming back to. It's all right, what do you do 1883 01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:50,639 Speaker 3: against Matthew Stafford and disrupting that timing with a rush 1884 01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 3: with cover? Obviously you're banged up in the secondary. And 1885 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 3: then conversely, when you have the ball, obviously it's getting 1886 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 3: Taylor going and they are banged up at corner the Rams, 1887 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:01,679 Speaker 3: and so you know, can you use Michael Pittman Junior 1888 01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:05,640 Speaker 3: and Alex Pearce's situation obviously is an ideal? You know, 1889 01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:07,600 Speaker 3: how much can those others step up? Is this an 1890 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,720 Speaker 3: eighty Mitchell coming out party? James Boy? Do we see 1891 01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:13,360 Speaker 3: the first ever eighty Mitchell touchdown on Sunday? Oh? 1892 01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 16: That's a good question. I fink it's a better question 1893 01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:15,960 Speaker 16: for one. 1894 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:19,520 Speaker 11: Jeff Frick fourteen catches, one hundred and eighty yards, three touchdowns. 1895 01:28:21,040 --> 01:28:23,800 Speaker 15: No, right now that you put the jugg of beer down, I. 1896 01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:25,920 Speaker 11: Could see him getting seven or eight targets this weekn't you? 1897 01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:27,200 Speaker 11: If if Phaalk Pierce doesn't play. 1898 01:28:27,120 --> 01:28:28,040 Speaker 15: Yeah, I can definitely see that. 1899 01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 14: I think that that is probably what would happen in 1900 01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:34,559 Speaker 14: a scenario like that. I don't know if it's seven 1901 01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 14: or eight, but he certainly would get multiple targets. 1902 01:28:36,360 --> 01:28:39,240 Speaker 3: He only had one target last year in the game 1903 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:43,000 Speaker 3: Pierce smiss. He played fifty five snaps in that game 1904 01:28:43,080 --> 01:28:46,719 Speaker 3: and had one target. If he plays fifty five snaps 1905 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,680 Speaker 3: on Sunday, he ain't having one. 1906 01:28:49,720 --> 01:28:51,880 Speaker 14: So I was like, uh, I'm pretty sure the quarterback 1907 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:53,320 Speaker 14: has changed since then, right, So that is. 1908 01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:56,320 Speaker 3: Why I would like to ey Mitchell's changed. Let's be honest. 1909 01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:59,000 Speaker 3: It could have been Richardson or Flacco last year and 1910 01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:02,639 Speaker 3: there was no trust with Adi Mitchell. I can't sit 1911 01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:05,400 Speaker 3: here and blame Anthony Richardson for Adie Mitchell's rookie season. 1912 01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:08,000 Speaker 3: I know we want to blame Anthony Richardson for everything 1913 01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:10,960 Speaker 3: right now, but I'm not in that camp. Adian Mitchell 1914 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:14,360 Speaker 3: I think has shown some needed growth here entering year 1915 01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:19,479 Speaker 3: two and so far, you again, statistically you're squinting a 1916 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,040 Speaker 3: little bit here, but I think you have to be pleased. 1917 01:29:22,040 --> 01:29:25,240 Speaker 3: So what an opportunity for him coming up on Sunday? 1918 01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:26,719 Speaker 3: If indeed Alex Pierce can't. 1919 01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:30,400 Speaker 11: Go, I'm still We talk about all these things, and 1920 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:33,680 Speaker 11: we talk about injuries and on both sides of the 1921 01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:36,400 Speaker 11: coin for the Rams and the Colts defensively and things 1922 01:29:36,439 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 11: of that nature. But I'll tell you what, forty nine 1923 01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:43,320 Speaker 11: and a half for the over under the prognosticators, the 1924 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:46,080 Speaker 11: betting line guys, they're expecting a shootout here, James, and 1925 01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:47,200 Speaker 11: I think we might get that. 1926 01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:51,479 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean we would certainly be do I guess 1927 01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:54,960 Speaker 14: or something like that, considering how well both offenses are operating. 1928 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 14: But at the same time, for the Col's purposes, you 1929 01:29:57,920 --> 01:29:59,960 Speaker 14: probably want to get a takeaway in there to make 1930 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:02,240 Speaker 14: sure you're on the right side of the one lost column. 1931 01:30:02,520 --> 01:30:06,519 Speaker 11: All right. That brings us to the Payless Liquors Hotline 1932 01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:08,880 Speaker 11: right now. Our next guest, one of the great American 1933 01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:13,240 Speaker 11: sports writers, Dan Wetzel, joining us on the Payless Liquors Hotline.

That's what they're That's 1943 01:30:37,080 --> 01:30:40,080 Speaker 13: what they're doing in Bloomington. I think everybody, like a 1944 01:30:40,120 --> 01:30:43,719 Speaker 13: lot of people around at least the country, thought Okay, 1945 01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:48,040 Speaker 13: when's the when's the balloom pop? Here? On on the 1946 01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:51,679 Speaker 13: Hoosiers a little return to mean they could still be good, 1947 01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:55,880 Speaker 13: but not just totally waxing Illinois the way they did 1948 01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:58,639 Speaker 13: last week. And I don't know if it's gonna pop. 1949 01:30:58,640 --> 01:30:59,240 Speaker 2: I don't know this. 1950 01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:01,519 Speaker 13: This team looks better than last year to me or 1951 01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 13: did I mean that game Saturday night Wash could not 1952 01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:08,920 Speaker 13: be more impressive. Illinois is a good team. I don't 1953 01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:10,679 Speaker 13: think they were the ninth best team in the country, 1954 01:31:10,720 --> 01:31:14,040 Speaker 13: but they're good. Brett Beelma's got a you know, just 1955 01:31:14,080 --> 01:31:18,080 Speaker 13: a style of play that that you grind out clock 1956 01:31:18,200 --> 01:31:20,599 Speaker 13: and you you know, you run the ball, you control, 1957 01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:22,599 Speaker 13: you have good defense, you don't get you don't give 1958 01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:24,960 Speaker 13: up sixty three points or get beat sixty three to ten. 1959 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:29,519 Speaker 13: So obviously a great, great time for Who's Your Football? 1960 01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:32,320 Speaker 13: Uh and it looked like it in the stands. 1961 01:31:31,920 --> 01:31:36,479 Speaker 14: There, Dan, everything you just said cut me because James 1962 01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:39,559 Speaker 14: board here, I am an Illinois alum in Indiana State, 1963 01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:42,080 Speaker 14: and uh yeah, I'm wearing a a Who's Your shirt 1964 01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:42,439 Speaker 14: right now? 1965 01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:43,719 Speaker 15: Lost the bed. The shirt's kind of stinky. 1966 01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:47,439 Speaker 14: I have to wear it all week because some bad 1967 01:31:47,439 --> 01:31:49,840 Speaker 14: decisions that I made predicting that Illinois would beat the 1968 01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:52,679 Speaker 14: Brakes off IU, which was the complete reverse of what happened. 1969 01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:55,640 Speaker 14: But one a more serious note. When you hear a 1970 01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:59,360 Speaker 14: coach say we broke their will, what does that tell 1971 01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 14: you about where you used to be compared to where 1972 01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:03,080 Speaker 14: they are now? 1973 01:32:04,280 --> 01:32:06,880 Speaker 13: Well, yeah, I don't know if they haven't broke anyone's will. 1974 01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:11,160 Speaker 13: I mean it's I tell people there, I mean it's 1975 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 13: they broke thirty years. They averaged four point one victories 1976 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 13: a year over thirty years. Wow, I haven't really been 1977 01:32:20,840 --> 01:32:23,280 Speaker 13: good since was it sixty seven or something like that, 1978 01:32:23,320 --> 01:32:26,760 Speaker 13: so we're going in on close to sixty years. It 1979 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:29,600 Speaker 13: just didn't happen. Broke anybody's will and then you know, 1980 01:32:29,680 --> 01:32:33,360 Speaker 13: Signette is just awesome. I mean, he he. 1981 01:32:32,800 --> 01:32:35,639 Speaker 2: Didn't get he didn't get a a. 1982 01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:37,439 Speaker 13: I don't even know if you would call getting the 1983 01:32:37,439 --> 01:32:39,360 Speaker 13: Indiana job two years ago a big time job, but 1984 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:42,120 Speaker 13: didn't get a power job until he's sixty two years old. 1985 01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:45,360 Speaker 2: I don't know how. I don't know why what took 1986 01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:45,840 Speaker 2: so long? 1987 01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:48,720 Speaker 13: And uh, he's not waiting around and he doesn't mind 1988 01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:52,519 Speaker 13: telling people about it. I you know, I love the 1989 01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:55,400 Speaker 13: scene at the end of the first half they put 1990 01:32:55,439 --> 01:32:57,320 Speaker 13: thirty five up on Illinois. 1991 01:32:56,840 --> 01:32:58,280 Speaker 2: And this is what do you want out of your offense? 1992 01:32:58,320 --> 01:33:04,280 Speaker 13: And just at more points he'll just stay whatever here 1993 01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:08,800 Speaker 13: to say it broke the will, just total domination. He's 1994 01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:10,760 Speaker 13: a lot of fun. I mean, he's a lot of fun. 1995 01:33:10,840 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 13: He puts it out there. 1996 01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:15,679 Speaker 2: And he's one of a kind, so it's obviously cool. 1997 01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:18,160 Speaker 3: It's a great piece from Dan Wetzel Kurtzignet isn't here 1998 01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:20,639 Speaker 3: to play nice and he may not be close to done. 1999 01:33:20,680 --> 01:33:23,320 Speaker 3: You can find that on ESPN. Dan, I was struck 2000 01:33:23,360 --> 01:33:26,240 Speaker 3: by a couple of lines in your story one and 2001 01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:28,720 Speaker 3: you just kind of hinted at it right there. He 2002 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:31,559 Speaker 3: speaks of his as if he's trying to sell slogan 2003 01:33:31,680 --> 01:33:34,599 Speaker 3: T shirts. I did have to laugh at that one, 2004 01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:37,080 Speaker 3: But I thought the one that really struck with me 2005 01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:39,760 Speaker 3: a little bit more was you mentioning how he was 2006 01:33:39,800 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 3: the best coach for their situation. And I think you've 2007 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:46,080 Speaker 3: kind of gotten to that here in some of your 2008 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:49,200 Speaker 3: answers for the last few minutes, But like, yes, you 2009 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:52,879 Speaker 3: needed a coach that had won. But I think almost 2010 01:33:52,960 --> 01:33:55,160 Speaker 3: in hindsight of course of twenty twenty, I you needed 2011 01:33:55,200 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 3: a dude that's cocky as hell for him to walk 2012 01:33:57,400 --> 01:34:00,680 Speaker 3: in there and tell people in the administration, people in 2013 01:34:00,720 --> 01:34:04,040 Speaker 3: the fan base, people within the university of like, no, no, no, 2014 01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:06,040 Speaker 3: this is how we're going to do it, or you 2015 01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:08,879 Speaker 3: can continue to be the laughing stock of college football. 2016 01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:10,000 Speaker 3: I thought that was a great line. 2017 01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:12,720 Speaker 13: In the end, Well, I think this is a you know, 2018 01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:15,280 Speaker 13: it's a new era of the sport obviously, and you 2019 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:21,520 Speaker 13: see some traditional powers are struggling with that. And Kirk Signetti, 2020 01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:27,280 Speaker 13: you know, was perfect for Indiana. And I think he 2021 01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:31,960 Speaker 13: looked and said about Indiana is not in this era. Oh, 2022 01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:35,000 Speaker 13: this is going to take five years. I need four 2023 01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:37,120 Speaker 13: recruiting class. I mean he's like, no, I'm going to 2024 01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:40,479 Speaker 13: get guys right now. And you know, college football and 2025 01:34:40,520 --> 01:34:44,760 Speaker 13: college basketball, the transfer portal and nil and all that, 2026 01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:47,320 Speaker 13: just you know, everybody hates it and this and that 2027 01:34:47,400 --> 01:34:50,839 Speaker 13: and it's terrible. And these kids in the portal they're quitters, 2028 01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:53,680 Speaker 13: they're disloyal, or they're you know. 2029 01:34:53,760 --> 01:34:54,760 Speaker 2: Whatever it is. 2030 01:34:55,000 --> 01:34:58,479 Speaker 13: And I think when you are a coach who thinks 2031 01:34:58,600 --> 01:35:02,320 Speaker 13: that way, you know it may affect your ability. 2032 01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:03,320 Speaker 2: To get some of the guys. 2033 01:35:03,400 --> 01:35:05,679 Speaker 13: Signetti, I think looks at it a little bit more 2034 01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:08,760 Speaker 13: like I often do, which is that these players are 2035 01:35:08,800 --> 01:35:15,040 Speaker 13: not disloyal. Often cases, there were guys that were overlooked 2036 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:15,439 Speaker 13: when they were. 2037 01:35:15,400 --> 01:35:17,599 Speaker 2: In high school. Maybe they weren't that good when they. 2038 01:35:17,479 --> 01:35:19,200 Speaker 13: Were seventeen, maybe they didn't get to go to the 2039 01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:23,720 Speaker 13: Elite eleven camps or whatever. Maybe they whatever reason, they 2040 01:35:23,960 --> 01:35:28,200 Speaker 13: played multiple sports. They got better and they're fighting their 2041 01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:30,760 Speaker 13: way up. You know they're coming. They're getting from D 2042 01:35:30,800 --> 01:35:32,680 Speaker 13: two to the mac bang. I get a shot to 2043 01:35:32,720 --> 01:35:36,080 Speaker 13: go to the Big ten. I'm going and I'm getting there, 2044 01:35:36,280 --> 01:35:39,640 Speaker 13: and I'm not. You know, I kicked the door in 2045 01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:42,719 Speaker 13: and now that I'm here, I'm ready to win right now. 2046 01:35:42,840 --> 01:35:45,000 Speaker 13: And that's the same way Signetti is you wait that 2047 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,920 Speaker 13: many years. You have this talented of a coach, and 2048 01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:51,040 Speaker 13: you don't get to to even in Indiana until you're 2049 01:35:51,080 --> 01:35:53,960 Speaker 13: sixty two years old. You're not sitting around saying, hey, 2050 01:35:54,640 --> 01:35:56,439 Speaker 13: I got to take a few years to you know, 2051 01:35:56,640 --> 01:35:58,599 Speaker 13: just kind of get used to the temperature. You say 2052 01:35:58,600 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 13: we're going to win right now, go And I think 2053 01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:04,960 Speaker 13: that he's found those kids that are really hungry and 2054 01:36:05,040 --> 01:36:08,120 Speaker 13: really want to play and can play at a very 2055 01:36:08,160 --> 01:36:11,439 Speaker 13: good level. No, you're not going to have Ohio State's roster. 2056 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:12,400 Speaker 13: You're probably never gonna have. 2057 01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:13,400 Speaker 2: Ohio State's roster. 2058 01:36:13,560 --> 01:36:16,120 Speaker 13: But that he didn't sit there and talk about that. 2059 01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:18,360 Speaker 13: He said, yeah, let's go out. We're gonna beat Ohio State. 2060 01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 13: I think that's translating out. He's perfect for Indiana. And 2061 01:36:21,960 --> 01:36:24,760 Speaker 13: if you look at Indiana's got money, they can get 2062 01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:29,160 Speaker 13: boosters to help pay and they can, They've got revenue share, 2063 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:31,200 Speaker 13: and they've got the big ten membership. 2064 01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:31,160 Speaker 2: And all that. 2065 01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:34,920 Speaker 13: Why not Indiana and why not be really good at 2066 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:36,120 Speaker 13: Indiana right away? 2067 01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:38,640 Speaker 2: And I think that he's rallied that up, and I 2068 01:36:38,640 --> 01:36:40,040 Speaker 2: think a lot of people are looking at it. I 2069 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:40,679 Speaker 2: would even. 2070 01:36:40,479 --> 01:36:43,200 Speaker 13: Say, why would I even have to leave here to 2071 01:36:43,280 --> 01:36:45,240 Speaker 13: be great? Like everyone's like. 2072 01:36:45,240 --> 01:36:46,840 Speaker 2: Oh, he'll leave or go to another job. 2073 01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:49,240 Speaker 13: Why, what's in this era of the sport? 2074 01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:50,759 Speaker 2: What's wrong with staying in Indiana? 2075 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:53,120 Speaker 3: Yeah? I was shocking as the statement as that would 2076 01:36:53,120 --> 01:36:55,639 Speaker 3: have sounded a few years ago. I think that is correct. 2077 01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:57,439 Speaker 3: The great Dan Wetsel what is here on the paylist 2078 01:36:57,439 --> 01:37:01,320 Speaker 3: stickers hotline from ESPN And we're in year two of 2079 01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:04,720 Speaker 3: this college football playoff we seemingly discuss and debate the 2080 01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:08,320 Speaker 3: format of it endlessly. Would you make any changes to 2081 01:37:08,400 --> 01:37:10,000 Speaker 3: how this playoff format is? 2082 01:37:10,720 --> 01:37:11,160 Speaker 4: I would not. 2083 01:37:11,520 --> 01:37:14,080 Speaker 2: I like twelve. I think it's a good number. Right now. 2084 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:16,960 Speaker 3: You like the whole game? Do you like the whole 2085 01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:17,840 Speaker 3: run away and all that? 2086 01:37:18,400 --> 01:37:19,599 Speaker 2: Yeah? I like home games. 2087 01:37:19,680 --> 01:37:22,040 Speaker 13: I would actually do a second round of home games. 2088 01:37:22,040 --> 01:37:24,599 Speaker 13: I would give the top four teams were gonna buy 2089 01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:26,800 Speaker 13: get a home game. First thing I would do is 2090 01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:29,120 Speaker 13: not change anything for a couple of years and let's 2091 01:37:29,200 --> 01:37:31,040 Speaker 13: let this cook and let's see right. 2092 01:37:31,479 --> 01:37:32,000 Speaker 2: I mean they. 2093 01:37:31,840 --> 01:37:36,080 Speaker 13: Started talking about how before before they even played last 2094 01:37:36,120 --> 01:37:38,120 Speaker 13: year's twelve team, they were already in talks about how 2095 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:40,479 Speaker 13: they were going to expand it, Like why don't we 2096 01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:43,720 Speaker 13: why don't we see what works what doesn't?

And then I've done a 2148 01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:20,080 Speaker 13: bunch of these books and it's not always the case, 2149 01:40:20,160 --> 01:40:24,439 Speaker 13: Like there's usually something like Steph Curry was was really small, 2150 01:40:24,760 --> 01:40:28,519 Speaker 13: or Serena Williams was like her older sister was better, 2151 01:40:29,200 --> 01:40:32,599 Speaker 13: or you know whatever, there's usually something. They're all great, 2152 01:40:32,800 --> 01:40:35,840 Speaker 13: but they're not.

You know, he was talking about Kaitlyn 2165 01:41:05,520 --> 01:41:08,240 Speaker 11: Clark there, and I saw this thing on social media. 2166 01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:10,400 Speaker 11: I don't know, two three weeks ago. They were trying 2167 01:41:10,400 --> 01:41:11,720 Speaker 11: to teach her the fever in the locker room. We're 2168 01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:13,200 Speaker 11: trying to teach her how to juggle, and she was 2169 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:15,920 Speaker 11: struggling with that and you could just see the frustration 2170 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:18,679 Speaker 11: nosing out of her that she didn't it didn't come 2171 01:41:18,720 --> 01:41:19,759 Speaker 11: easily and naturally. 2172 01:41:20,720 --> 01:41:23,519 Speaker 14: Yeah, not to go two down too far downs rabbit hole, 2173 01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:25,200 Speaker 14: because I could talk about this for hours, But I 2174 01:41:25,240 --> 01:41:28,160 Speaker 14: think her psyche is more like Kobe than it is 2175 01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:29,519 Speaker 14: like other stars. 2176 01:41:29,600 --> 01:41:30,720 Speaker 16: I don't think that Kaitlyn. 2177 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:36,400 Speaker 14: Clark is always the nicest competitor or even nicest teammate. 2178 01:41:36,400 --> 01:41:39,000 Speaker 14: Our teammates love her. I don't misconstrued or anything, but the 2179 01:41:39,080 --> 01:41:43,680 Speaker 14: competitive fire. It reminds me of I saw Kobe, and 2180 01:41:43,720 --> 01:41:46,920 Speaker 14: I would say the older generation probably says it's mjesque 2181 01:41:46,920 --> 01:41:48,760 Speaker 14: as well. Dan ty Rozzi has a little bit of 2182 01:41:48,800 --> 01:41:52,000 Speaker 14: that when she was playing just mean, and I mean 2183 01:41:52,040 --> 01:41:56,120 Speaker 14: that in a very cognitive yeah, just cutthroat, and I 2184 01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:57,479 Speaker 14: missed that about seeing her play. 2185 01:41:57,800 --> 01:42:00,719 Speaker 15: But you have seen the rest. 2186 01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:02,800 Speaker 14: Of that team embody kind of that you know, us 2187 01:42:02,840 --> 01:42:05,280 Speaker 14: against everybody mentality, and it's been. 2188 01:42:05,120 --> 01:42:07,880 Speaker 16: Cool to see because I don't think they. 2189 01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:10,160 Speaker 14: Might have thought they were here at this point, but 2190 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:12,320 Speaker 14: they keep finding a way to just play one more day, 2191 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:13,160 Speaker 14: which is really cool. 2192 01:42:13,240 --> 01:42:15,479 Speaker 3: I want to go back to Dan Wetzel and appreciate 2193 01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:17,400 Speaker 3: him joining us because I thought his piece on Signetti 2194 01:42:17,560 --> 01:42:19,439 Speaker 3: was really good and. 2195 01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:23,000 Speaker 15: Not this again I'm joking. I brought up I agree. 2196 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:25,679 Speaker 3: I brought up that that statement that he had within 2197 01:42:25,720 --> 01:42:28,840 Speaker 3: the piece of you know how important of that type 2198 01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:31,760 Speaker 3: of coach he was for that type of situation. 2199 01:42:32,920 --> 01:42:33,160 Speaker 4: Mark. 2200 01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 3: I remember last year at training camp, remember when we 2201 01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:36,800 Speaker 3: had Signetti on and I asked him if he'd ever 2202 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:37,559 Speaker 3: watched Hitch. 2203 01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:38,320 Speaker 2: Yes. 2204 01:42:38,479 --> 01:42:41,880 Speaker 3: Remember that didn't really land no, but my reference was, 2205 01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:47,760 Speaker 3: you are Will Smith needed right now to rehab this image. 2206 01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:50,960 Speaker 3: I still stand by that analogy of It's kind of 2207 01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:53,439 Speaker 3: what Wetzel was saying there of like no, no, no, 2208 01:42:53,560 --> 01:42:59,920 Speaker 3: you need the good looking, smooth operator right now. And James, 2209 01:42:59,920 --> 01:43:01,840 Speaker 3: you guys have to feel like all the Signetti articles 2210 01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:04,200 Speaker 3: are coming out this week. One of your writers over 2211 01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:07,680 Speaker 3: on the Athletic wrote something similar on Signetti and what 2212 01:43:07,720 --> 01:43:09,920 Speaker 3: he meant to the Indiana program. And I thought this 2213 01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:12,760 Speaker 3: quote from Signetti really stood out. Signetti said this, when 2214 01:43:12,800 --> 01:43:15,400 Speaker 3: I got here, I just detected a doom and gloom, 2215 01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:18,400 Speaker 3: despair type. I'm talking day one. I just come from 2216 01:43:18,439 --> 01:43:21,080 Speaker 3: a place that won five straight championships. I'm used to winning, 2217 01:43:21,200 --> 01:43:23,280 Speaker 3: and I wasn't going to lower my standards. Then I 2218 01:43:23,320 --> 01:43:26,120 Speaker 3: did a couple of national interviews and I could feel 2219 01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:28,519 Speaker 3: the same type of attitude towards Indiana. I had to 2220 01:43:28,600 --> 01:43:31,719 Speaker 3: raise the expectation level and standard around here and find 2221 01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:33,600 Speaker 3: out if the fan base was dead or just on 2222 01:43:33,720 --> 01:43:36,800 Speaker 3: life support. They need woken up. And if you guys 2223 01:43:36,840 --> 01:43:38,960 Speaker 3: remember the day after he's hired, he takes the mic 2224 01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:40,960 Speaker 3: at the basketball game and he says Produce sucks, and 2225 01:43:40,960 --> 01:43:43,040 Speaker 3: he says Ohio State sucks, and he says Michigan sucks. 2226 01:43:43,640 --> 01:43:46,920 Speaker 3: There was real intent behind that, like he was not 2227 01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:50,439 Speaker 3: Again KURTZIGNETI I think has told the story. It's not 2228 01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:53,400 Speaker 3: like when he interviewed with Scott Dolson. He said, Hey, 2229 01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:56,160 Speaker 3: when I grabbed the mic for your first the first appearance, 2230 01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:59,759 Speaker 3: I'm going to say all that crazy stuff he observed 2231 01:43:59,800 --> 01:44:01,760 Speaker 3: the twenty four hours in the job, and he was like, 2232 01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:05,800 Speaker 3: holy bleep, this is a morgue, this is awful. This 2233 01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:09,400 Speaker 3: is Big ten football, and we're acting like, you know, 2234 01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:12,519 Speaker 3: we can't go beat Owen Valley in a game. And 2235 01:44:12,640 --> 01:44:16,400 Speaker 3: so to me, when Wetzel writes that he's the right 2236 01:44:16,479 --> 01:44:20,599 Speaker 3: coach for the right situation, Indiana needed Will Smith and Hitch. 2237 01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:26,360 Speaker 3: They needed someone that was gonna be a total Hey, guys, 2238 01:44:26,439 --> 01:44:29,599 Speaker 3: I'm gonna be cocky as hell, and I'm gonna people 2239 01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:31,840 Speaker 3: are gonna answer to me in this athletic department because 2240 01:44:31,840 --> 01:44:35,040 Speaker 3: football means that much. And obviously the rest is history 2241 01:44:35,040 --> 01:44:36,120 Speaker 3: and how it's worked out so far. 2242 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:38,559 Speaker 11: I win Google me. That's the best line. 2243 01:44:38,600 --> 01:44:40,559 Speaker 14: Yeah, I need a Will Smith from the Hitch Saturday 2244 01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:41,920 Speaker 14: night last week.

James, you and I 2280 01:46:18,800 --> 01:46:20,960 Speaker 11: were talking about it during the break. The over under 2281 01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:22,920 Speaker 11: forty nine and a half in that game, which means 2282 01:46:22,920 --> 01:46:25,480 Speaker 11: that the experts expect a shootouts. 2283 01:46:25,800 --> 01:46:30,280 Speaker 14: Yeah, it should be a pretty I guess, high scoring game. 2284 01:46:30,320 --> 01:46:32,800 Speaker 14: But at the same time, I think, like most games 2285 01:46:32,800 --> 01:46:35,480 Speaker 14: will come down to how many teams can make mistakes 2286 01:46:35,600 --> 01:46:37,760 Speaker 14: or stay away from mistakes, And I think for the 2287 01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:39,639 Speaker 14: Colts purposes, you want to try to get a takeaway 2288 01:46:39,680 --> 01:46:42,320 Speaker 14: on this team. If you give Matthew Stafford a bunch 2289 01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:45,479 Speaker 14: of chances with no turnovers, he will usually make you pay. 2290 01:46:46,120 --> 01:46:47,920 Speaker 11: By the way, the Rams are three and a half 2291 01:46:48,000 --> 01:46:51,360 Speaker 11: point favorite. Says we sit here today, Kevin Bowen. We 2292 01:46:51,520 --> 01:46:53,920 Speaker 11: keep an eye on the injury. We list all day 2293 01:46:53,960 --> 01:46:56,280 Speaker 11: today and tomorrow and Friday and Saturday. 2294 01:46:56,760 --> 01:46:59,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. So Kenny Moore the second to not practice, and 2295 01:46:59,160 --> 01:47:02,479 Speaker 3: know we've talked about throughout the show, but reclassification from 2296 01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:06,200 Speaker 3: Shane Styken of that injury calf now becomes achilles. He 2297 01:47:06,360 --> 01:47:08,000 Speaker 3: was sitting down. I don't know if I ever saw 2298 01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:10,560 Speaker 3: him stand. James during practice yesterday he was kind of 2299 01:47:10,560 --> 01:47:14,680 Speaker 3: sitting on that gatorade. The jugger gatorade what he was 2300 01:47:14,680 --> 01:47:17,640 Speaker 3: sitting on with the left boot on that. 2301 01:47:19,120 --> 01:47:22,880 Speaker 11: Joy Erickson's just getting bigger and bigger. Mark Dyon on. 2302 01:47:22,920 --> 01:47:26,839 Speaker 3: That injured leg and then out Pierre snuffing of practice 2303 01:47:26,840 --> 01:47:30,599 Speaker 3: for him with concussion protocol. DeForest Buckner with the back again. 2304 01:47:30,680 --> 01:47:33,040 Speaker 3: Buckner is probably one of the few cults that could 2305 01:47:33,040 --> 01:47:35,080 Speaker 3: go a full week without practicing. We've seen him do 2306 01:47:35,160 --> 01:47:37,519 Speaker 3: that and play like a third down role, but it 2307 01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:40,120 Speaker 3: is unusual James for him to sit out Wednesday practice, 2308 01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:42,519 Speaker 3: So I think that is just something to note. And 2309 01:47:42,600 --> 01:47:44,800 Speaker 3: three hundred pound dudes that are thirty years old that 2310 01:47:44,880 --> 01:47:47,640 Speaker 3: have back injuries, I feel like you should note it. 2311 01:47:47,720 --> 01:47:49,759 Speaker 3: Even though Buckner like is a freak. 2312 01:47:49,880 --> 01:47:52,040 Speaker 14: I was gonna say my nickname for him is God's Favorite. 2313 01:47:52,040 --> 01:47:53,960 Speaker 14: So that applies to everyone but Buckner. 2314 01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:56,280 Speaker 3: It's so well said. So those are some of the 2315 01:47:56,320 --> 01:47:58,800 Speaker 3: injuries to watch. Matt Gonzolvez, the starting right guard, had 2316 01:47:58,800 --> 01:48:02,040 Speaker 3: a boot on his right foot, a toe injury for him, 2317 01:48:02,200 --> 01:48:04,920 Speaker 3: So again some things to note. And with Kenny and 2318 01:48:04,960 --> 01:48:08,000 Speaker 3: with Alec Pearce, their situations look a little bit more 2319 01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:09,200 Speaker 3: dire for week four. 2320 01:48:09,280 --> 01:48:12,000 Speaker 11: All right, and checking in on the Indiana fever. They 2321 01:48:12,040 --> 01:48:14,760 Speaker 11: will be at the field House tomorrow night, game three 2322 01:48:14,920 --> 01:48:17,240 Speaker 11: of their semi final best of five series against the 2323 01:48:17,320 --> 01:48:20,679 Speaker 11: Las Vegas Aces. Did their job mission complete. They got 2324 01:48:20,680 --> 01:48:23,200 Speaker 11: a split out in Las Vegas. They now have home 2325 01:48:23,240 --> 01:48:26,559 Speaker 11: court advantage. We'll see if they can protect that tomorrow night. 2326 01:48:26,840 --> 01:48:28,800 Speaker 11: And I know there was some back issues for a 2327 01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:31,400 Speaker 11: Lexi Hole. She played through it all those kinds of things. 2328 01:48:31,560 --> 01:48:33,679 Speaker 11: Did we ever hear anything more about how she traveled 2329 01:48:33,720 --> 01:48:35,960 Speaker 11: back with that and if it got stiff or not? Really? 2330 01:48:36,240 --> 01:48:39,800 Speaker 14: But I mean at this point again, I'll treat Lexi Haul, 2331 01:48:39,880 --> 01:48:42,559 Speaker 14: I'll treat to Forest Buckner. She'll be out there tomorrow night. 2332 01:48:42,640 --> 01:48:43,479 Speaker 14: No worries about that? 2333 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:46,360 Speaker 11: All right again seven thirty Tip times seven to fifteen 2334 01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:48,679 Speaker 11: the airtime and our fan pregame show with Eddie Garrison. 2335 01:48:48,960 --> 01:48:51,720 Speaker 11: We'll get you tipped off here on the radio.

It's a public 2385 01:50:43,880 --> 01:50:46,240 Speaker 11: off course, but people who get on literally have to 2386 01:50:46,280 --> 01:50:47,760 Speaker 11: spend the night in the parking lot. 2387 01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:50,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is low So again, it should be an 2388 01:50:50,200 --> 01:50:52,680 Speaker 3: awesome atmosphere. The New York crowd will be rowdy, and 2389 01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:54,920 Speaker 3: I think you could have maybe an interaction or two 2390 01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:58,360 Speaker 3: that leads to some maybe some interesting things here when 2391 01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:01,599 Speaker 3: it comes to the New York crowd and the European golfers. 2392 01:51:01,680 --> 01:51:04,760 Speaker 11: All right, your betting market explained next on ninety three, 2393 01:51:04,840 --> 01:51:08,880 Speaker 11: five and one seven.

Last year we went on 2415 01:52:05,560 --> 01:52:09,120 Speaker 19: an amazing run this year in terms of picking the game, 2416 01:52:09,240 --> 01:52:11,360 Speaker 19: the big bet, right, the one we kind of hang 2417 01:52:11,360 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 19: our hat on. 2418 01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:14,400 Speaker 11: So far this year, we're two and one. It's a 2419 01:52:14,439 --> 01:52:15,639 Speaker 11: lot better than oh and three. 2420 01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:17,960 Speaker 19: But the first thing I hear when I walk in 2421 01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:21,599 Speaker 19: here is mister Cincinnati Red, mister Notre Dame fighting Irish 2422 01:52:21,680 --> 01:52:24,479 Speaker 19: over here, giving me crap about we're not perfect so 2423 01:52:24,560 --> 01:52:27,120 Speaker 19: far this year. Well, I'm sorry, Kevin. Not all of 2424 01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:29,760 Speaker 19: us could be the Notre Dame football program. Oh wait, 2425 01:52:31,560 --> 01:52:34,120 Speaker 19: my gosh, job team Hammer, Becker. 2426 01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,400 Speaker 3: I told you an incredibly high standard last year. As 2427 01:52:37,439 --> 01:52:40,760 Speaker 3: you just alluded to, you were you were Tiger in 2428 01:52:40,800 --> 01:52:44,040 Speaker 3: two thousand, you were, you were incredible. Uh And this 2429 01:52:44,120 --> 01:52:46,679 Speaker 3: year I feel like with more of our individual props, 2430 01:52:46,880 --> 01:52:50,920 Speaker 3: not our team bets, prop bets, your little Tiger Woods 2431 01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:54,000 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five. And so I view Week four 2432 01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:56,800 Speaker 3: as a time to let's kick in the ass, let's 2433 01:52:56,840 --> 01:52:58,479 Speaker 3: get back on the winning way. 2434 01:52:58,880 --> 01:53:00,960 Speaker 11: I want a little shot here. 2435 01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:03,599 Speaker 3: You got on these Thursday shows last year, Mark how 2436 01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:07,040 Speaker 3: many times did Hammer come in here and grace ourselves 2437 01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:11,439 Speaker 3: with some very nice alcohol. So thank you, thank you 2438 01:53:11,760 --> 01:53:14,519 Speaker 3: for that. I know what you there, purely I'm just 2439 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:17,760 Speaker 3: trying to coach you. It is a motivational tactic. I 2440 01:53:17,800 --> 01:53:19,920 Speaker 3: stand corrected. You are right two and one on the bets. 2441 01:53:19,960 --> 01:53:23,519 Speaker 19: I'm being compared to post Ela Norngren golf slide upside 2442 01:53:23,560 --> 01:53:24,719 Speaker 19: the head, Tiger Woods. 2443 01:53:24,800 --> 01:53:29,160 Speaker 3: Yes, exactly your back windshield. So let's get into it tonight. 2444 01:53:29,280 --> 01:53:31,120 Speaker 3: It is another close line. I feel like we've had 2445 01:53:31,160 --> 01:53:33,400 Speaker 3: a few of these on Thursday Night besides last week 2446 01:53:33,720 --> 01:53:36,439 Speaker 3: Cardinals Seahawks, two teams the Colts will see later in 2447 01:53:36,520 --> 01:53:39,520 Speaker 3: the year. Your thoughts on Thursday night football. 2448 01:53:39,520 --> 01:53:41,679 Speaker 11: Money is totally flipped on this one. Then the line 2449 01:53:41,920 --> 01:53:42,680 Speaker 11: first opened up. 2450 01:53:42,760 --> 01:53:46,600 Speaker 19: Arizona was an early favorite, and then the market hammered 2451 01:53:47,080 --> 01:53:49,200 Speaker 19: the Seahawks to the point where they're now a one 2452 01:53:49,280 --> 01:53:53,439 Speaker 19: and a half point favorite. Normally, you fade the public right. 2453 01:53:53,640 --> 01:53:56,519 Speaker 19: The public is usually wrong. That's why the house has 2454 01:53:56,560 --> 01:54:00,040 Speaker 19: these casinos looking the way they do. And normally the 2455 01:54:00,080 --> 01:54:03,120 Speaker 19: home team has a big advantage on Thursday Night. But 2456 01:54:03,439 --> 01:54:05,439 Speaker 19: we're gonna throw all that crap out the window this 2457 01:54:05,520 --> 01:54:08,519 Speaker 19: week because Man, Seattle, I think, is just a better team. 2458 01:54:08,760 --> 01:54:11,680 Speaker 19: If you're just looking at this objectively, who's got a 2459 01:54:11,680 --> 01:54:16,240 Speaker 19: better defense, Seattle, who's got better receivers? I believe it's 2460 01:54:16,240 --> 01:54:19,559 Speaker 19: Seattle because Marvin Harrison Junior can't figure it out right now, 2461 01:54:20,680 --> 01:54:24,479 Speaker 19: all the intangibles. I'd even go quarterback right now. Darnold 2462 01:54:24,520 --> 01:54:27,639 Speaker 19: greater than Kyler Murray. He's a wild card. Murray is though, 2463 01:54:27,920 --> 01:54:31,679 Speaker 19: kind of is. But the Seahawks, for whatever reason, plays 2464 01:54:31,720 --> 01:54:34,960 Speaker 19: so well on the road going back to last year. 2465 01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:39,000 Speaker 19: They've won seven straight road games. Wow, that's hard to 2466 01:54:39,040 --> 01:54:42,760 Speaker 19: do in the NFL, right, and they've covered the spread 2467 01:54:42,800 --> 01:54:45,480 Speaker 19: in six of their last seven games against the Cardinals. 2468 01:54:45,960 --> 01:54:47,960 Speaker 11: So we're gonna lay the one and a half tonight. 2469 01:54:49,400 --> 01:54:50,320 Speaker 11: I just don't like. 2470 01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:53,680 Speaker 19: I don't feel great about the road team on a Thursday, 2471 01:54:54,120 --> 01:54:57,400 Speaker 19: But the better team on a Thursday also usually wins 2472 01:54:57,440 --> 01:54:59,360 Speaker 19: on that short week. So we're gonna lay one and 2473 01:54:59,360 --> 01:55:03,200 Speaker 19: a half Seattle. The Cardinals have been out gained in 2474 01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:05,840 Speaker 19: every single game they've played so far. I don't know 2475 01:55:05,880 --> 01:55:07,280 Speaker 19: if they can keep pace offensively. 2476 01:55:07,560 --> 01:55:09,560 Speaker 3: That's a lot of good ammo there. Okay with the 2477 01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:13,720 Speaker 3: road Seahawks all right, individually, this is where we need 2478 01:55:13,760 --> 01:55:15,600 Speaker 3: the uptake. This is where I believe in you. 2479 01:55:15,880 --> 01:55:17,040 Speaker 11: I know it's in you. 2480 01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:18,040 Speaker 3: You are incredible. 2481 01:55:18,080 --> 01:55:19,560 Speaker 15: Last year Hammer, how far that. 2482 01:55:21,600 --> 01:55:24,680 Speaker 3: Williams, you were Peyton, you were everybody, I've got Ryder 2483 01:55:24,720 --> 01:55:27,280 Speaker 3: cut pressure on me right now exactly eighteenth. Hold the 2484 01:55:27,320 --> 01:55:29,640 Speaker 3: Ryder cup back. But what do you got for individual 2485 01:55:29,680 --> 01:55:30,280 Speaker 3: stuff tonight? 2486 01:55:30,400 --> 01:55:30,720 Speaker 2: All right? 2487 01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:33,280 Speaker 19: So Kyler Murray, let's talk about the wild card here 2488 01:55:33,840 --> 01:55:37,240 Speaker 19: without James Connor in the mix, where are their rushing 2489 01:55:37,320 --> 01:55:40,640 Speaker 19: yards going to come from? And I'm looking at Kyler Murray. 2490 01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:44,240 Speaker 19: The total for him tonight is around twenty seven and 2491 01:55:44,280 --> 01:55:48,400 Speaker 19: a half over under rushing yards for Kyler Murray the 2492 01:55:48,400 --> 01:55:51,760 Speaker 19: three games this year with James Connor, he's had seven, 2493 01:55:52,240 --> 01:55:56,120 Speaker 19: seven and six attempts. We're gonna ride the lightning and 2494 01:55:56,160 --> 01:55:59,480 Speaker 19: go over tonight over twenty seven and a half. If 2495 01:55:59,560 --> 01:56:02,400 Speaker 19: you feel the Seahawks may have the lead or this 2496 01:56:02,480 --> 01:56:04,960 Speaker 19: is a close game, they're gonna be going forward and 2497 01:56:05,000 --> 01:56:07,960 Speaker 19: fourth down, they're moving the chains. They're gonna have to 2498 01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:11,440 Speaker 19: run the ball eventually. I think a couple broken plays 2499 01:56:11,520 --> 01:56:14,480 Speaker 19: get us free here over twenty seven and a half. 2500 01:56:15,080 --> 01:56:17,800 Speaker 19: And this one, there's a segment on our podcast called 2501 01:56:17,880 --> 01:56:21,560 Speaker 19: Let's Get Nuts. Eighty three and a half is the 2502 01:56:21,760 --> 01:56:26,200 Speaker 19: total yards receiving for Jackson Smith and jigbut tonight, eighty 2503 01:56:26,240 --> 01:56:28,520 Speaker 19: three and a half is a big number. But in 2504 01:56:28,560 --> 01:56:31,960 Speaker 19: the first three games this year one twenty four, one 2505 01:56:32,000 --> 01:56:35,840 Speaker 19: oh three, and ninety six. Even if he's off by 2506 01:56:35,960 --> 01:56:38,880 Speaker 19: thirteen yards compared to the worst game that he's played 2507 01:56:38,880 --> 01:56:42,360 Speaker 19: this year, our toes are still tapping. And plus, when 2508 01:56:42,360 --> 01:56:45,640 Speaker 19: Sam Darnold finds a dude that he likes, go back 2509 01:56:45,640 --> 01:56:48,440 Speaker 19: to his time in Minnesota. Look at the numbers Jefferson 2510 01:56:48,480 --> 01:56:52,960 Speaker 19: put up target wise, we're getting thirteen, ten and six 2511 01:56:53,160 --> 01:56:55,520 Speaker 19: so far in the games for Seattle. So he's looking 2512 01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:58,640 Speaker 19: for him. He's a deep threat. We're gonna get nuts. 2513 01:56:58,640 --> 01:57:02,400 Speaker 19: We're going over eighty three and a half receiving Jackson 2514 01:57:02,480 --> 01:57:03,400 Speaker 19: Smith Enjigma. 2515 01:57:03,480 --> 01:57:04,400 Speaker 3: Tonight, let's go. 2516 01:57:04,600 --> 01:57:06,840 Speaker 14: There's one of the Seattle players I named earlier for 2517 01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:08,360 Speaker 14: your liking, Kevin Bondes. 2518 01:57:08,480 --> 01:57:11,680 Speaker 3: Indeed, okay, I am nodding my head at all of this. 2519 01:57:12,480 --> 01:57:14,640 Speaker 11: I got one for you tonight. You tell me what 2520 01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:18,680 Speaker 11: you think Seahawks. As well as they played defensively, they 2521 01:57:18,680 --> 01:57:22,839 Speaker 11: are last in the league against tight ends. Trey McBride 2522 01:57:22,880 --> 01:57:25,280 Speaker 11: might be right now the best tight end in the 2523 01:57:25,360 --> 01:57:28,600 Speaker 11: National Football League. If you want to go safe, you 2524 01:57:28,600 --> 01:57:32,520 Speaker 11: could go over seventy at plus one twenty six. But 2525 01:57:32,600 --> 01:57:35,080 Speaker 11: if you want to get freaky, if you go over 2526 01:57:35,120 --> 01:57:38,839 Speaker 11: one hundred yards for him tonight. That's four thirty plus 2527 01:57:38,880 --> 01:57:39,560 Speaker 11: four thirty. 2528 01:57:39,760 --> 01:57:41,720 Speaker 19: I don't even think plus money is safe. I'll take 2529 01:57:41,760 --> 01:57:44,960 Speaker 19: plus money all day. Plus money's not safe. Plus money 2530 01:57:45,000 --> 01:57:45,360 Speaker 19: is great. 2531 01:57:45,480 --> 01:57:48,400 Speaker 3: I think I think he's might going over freaking round 2532 01:57:48,480 --> 01:57:49,560 Speaker 3: roundabouts and carmels. 2533 01:57:49,560 --> 01:57:52,320 Speaker 11: My point is, I think he's going over seventy. That's 2534 01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:55,080 Speaker 11: my safe bet, over seventy at one hundred and twenty eight. 2535 01:57:55,160 --> 01:57:57,920 Speaker 11: I like it. He's the you talked about. Marvin Harrison 2536 01:57:57,960 --> 01:58:01,040 Speaker 11: Junior is struggling. There's a real connetion between Murray and 2537 01:58:01,440 --> 01:58:04,000 Speaker 11: McBride and they they're going up against the team that 2538 01:58:04,040 --> 01:58:07,160 Speaker 11: has not done well against tight ends tonight. I'm just saying, 2539 01:58:07,200 --> 01:58:09,839 Speaker 11: I'm thinking hard about that one. Thinking hard. Am I crazy? 2540 01:58:10,080 --> 01:58:12,240 Speaker 3: No, not at all, not at all. 2541 01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:15,520 Speaker 19: Speaking of somebody you guys were talking about earlier, Michael 2542 01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:20,520 Speaker 19: Pittman Junior. Right, if you want plus money anytime touchdown 2543 01:58:21,240 --> 01:58:24,720 Speaker 19: this Sunday, Michael Pittman Junior. I found that at plus 2544 01:58:24,760 --> 01:58:26,080 Speaker 19: two to ten last night. 2545 01:58:26,320 --> 01:58:26,720 Speaker 3: I like that. 2546 01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:30,120 Speaker 11: Hither do I like colts can throw. 2547 01:58:29,880 --> 01:58:34,160 Speaker 3: Injury situation rams corners are banged up. Smaller corners we saw. 2548 01:58:34,240 --> 01:58:38,600 Speaker 3: I mean Pittman's junior such down last week, say anytime physicality, 2549 01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:42,560 Speaker 3: which he's great at. Okay, anything collegiately, colts rams, I 2550 01:58:42,560 --> 01:58:45,520 Speaker 3: know you just said Pittman anything else on the weekend. 2551 01:58:45,560 --> 01:58:47,200 Speaker 3: So it's a great college football weekend. 2552 01:58:47,280 --> 01:58:50,000 Speaker 11: Oh this is the best. I love it. Man. A 2553 01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:53,480 Speaker 11: lot of people are into Bama this weekend. I'm not. 2554 01:58:54,000 --> 01:58:56,480 Speaker 19: I think Georgia between the hedges at less than a 2555 01:58:56,520 --> 01:58:58,760 Speaker 19: field goal is where I'm going to hang my hat. 2556 01:58:59,280 --> 01:59:02,440 Speaker 3: I get really the line less than the two. 2557 01:59:02,400 --> 01:59:06,240 Speaker 11: And a half Forgans to do, I don't take that. Yeah. 2558 01:59:06,280 --> 01:59:09,120 Speaker 19: So I remember last year at one point Georgia was 2559 01:59:09,160 --> 01:59:13,440 Speaker 19: down thirty to seven to Alabama in Tuscaloosa. But by 2560 01:59:13,480 --> 01:59:15,440 Speaker 19: the time they figured it out, Georgia took the lead 2561 01:59:15,560 --> 01:59:17,440 Speaker 19: late in that game. They still lost, but they took 2562 01:59:17,480 --> 01:59:19,120 Speaker 19: the lead with like two and a half minutes to go. 2563 01:59:19,920 --> 01:59:22,600 Speaker 19: They've played since then, but I still feel like it's 2564 01:59:22,680 --> 01:59:25,680 Speaker 19: kind of a revenge spot for Kirby and Georgia. You 2565 01:59:25,680 --> 01:59:27,640 Speaker 19: don't find that too often for one of the great 2566 01:59:27,640 --> 01:59:30,720 Speaker 19: red asses in all of college football, Kirby Smart so 2567 01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:35,520 Speaker 19: home game in Georgia style points matter. I will take 2568 01:59:35,640 --> 01:59:38,200 Speaker 19: Georgia less than a field goal at home every time. 2569 01:59:38,440 --> 01:59:42,400 Speaker 3: I you a touchdown road favorite.

I say this, I'm refusing 2658 02:03:42,680 --> 02:03:45,760 Speaker 14: to lie anymore about it. Every year there's some game 2659 02:03:45,760 --> 02:03:47,760 Speaker 14: that comes up on Thursday schedule and I'm like, oh, 2660 02:03:47,760 --> 02:03:48,440 Speaker 14: that looks terrible. 2661 02:03:48,440 --> 02:03:49,760 Speaker 15: I don't want to watch that. Yuck. 2662 02:03:50,280 --> 02:03:53,880 Speaker 14: And I'm watching it because that is the football in 2663 02:03:53,960 --> 02:03:57,320 Speaker 14: sports addict in me, I suppose.

The NFC West, I believe, 2668 02:04:08,560 --> 02:04:11,160 Speaker 3: record wise, is the best division of football right now. 2669 02:04:11,280 --> 02:04:13,440 Speaker 3: I think if you added up the four teams, then 2670 02:04:13,480 --> 02:04:16,120 Speaker 3: that division, I believe it is the best division so 2671 02:04:16,200 --> 02:04:18,800 Speaker 3: far in football. Colts will see the Cardinals here coming 2672 02:04:18,840 --> 02:04:20,520 Speaker 3: up in a couple of weeks, and they'll see the 2673 02:04:20,520 --> 02:04:24,360 Speaker 3: Seahawks chains tacking very close with Mike McDonald their head coach. 2674 02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:26,920 Speaker 3: They'll see the Seahawks in a December trip.

Now, Mark Dyton, you are probably the 2709 02:05:42,040 --> 02:05:47,080 Speaker 3: closest golf fan of anybody here in the studio. Or 2710 02:05:47,280 --> 02:05:48,200 Speaker 3: will you Ryder Cup? 2711 02:05:48,200 --> 02:05:48,240 Speaker 2: It? 2712 02:05:48,320 --> 02:05:49,280 Speaker 3: Will you? 2713 02:05:49,080 --> 02:05:49,880 Speaker 11: Will you do? 2714 02:05:50,520 --> 02:05:52,320 Speaker 16: I was gonna ask you for any like plays or 2715 02:05:52,320 --> 02:05:54,040 Speaker 16: anything for the Ryder Cup because I was like, I 2716 02:05:54,080 --> 02:05:55,840 Speaker 16: got some odd boosts and anything like that. 2717 02:05:55,880 --> 02:05:56,200 Speaker 3: But I don't. 2718 02:05:56,240 --> 02:05:57,480 Speaker 16: I don't really know, well. 2719 02:05:57,440 --> 02:05:59,720 Speaker 3: Especially looking on plays you can get and against a 2720 02:05:59,720 --> 02:06:03,480 Speaker 3: team competition throughout the week. It's team Friday and Saturday 2721 02:06:03,560 --> 02:06:07,320 Speaker 3: of partners Scottie Scheffler and whatever, Colin Moore Kawa will 2722 02:06:07,320 --> 02:06:10,280 Speaker 3: be a duo or Suxander Schoffley and Patrick Cantley. You 2723 02:06:10,320 --> 02:06:12,720 Speaker 3: can bet on which player on each team Mark will 2724 02:06:12,760 --> 02:06:15,360 Speaker 3: win the most points. So I think that can be enticing. 2725 02:06:15,440 --> 02:06:17,560 Speaker 3: If you don't think it's Scotti Scheffler for the US. 2726 02:06:17,960 --> 02:06:20,880 Speaker 3: You could get a lot of good money on that there. 2727 02:06:20,880 --> 02:06:22,320 Speaker 3: And again it's the one week out of the year 2728 02:06:22,360 --> 02:06:24,520 Speaker 3: where I call Bryson to Shambeau a fan and not 2729 02:06:24,600 --> 02:06:25,160 Speaker 3: a foe. 2730 02:06:26,520 --> 02:06:28,720 Speaker 16: I think that's also so if he does terrible, this 2731 02:06:28,760 --> 02:06:30,880 Speaker 16: is why I don't like him. He's ruining the country. 2732 02:06:30,960 --> 02:06:32,360 Speaker 14: So that's kind of where I'm at right now with 2733 02:06:32,480 --> 02:06:34,520 Speaker 14: Indiana football. It's like, if you don't win a national championship, 2734 02:06:34,520 --> 02:06:35,600 Speaker 14: it's a bust mark. 2735 02:06:35,640 --> 02:06:36,480 Speaker 3: That's such a great point. 2736 02:06:36,560 --> 02:06:39,080 Speaker 11: So if Bryson carries Team USA to a win, does 2737 02:06:39,120 --> 02:06:41,200 Speaker 11: that soften your overall view of it? 2738 02:06:41,560 --> 02:06:44,280 Speaker 3: I love him and I love him, and on Monday's 2739 02:06:44,280 --> 02:06:46,400 Speaker 3: show all praise him, and then when we get to Tuesday, 2740 02:06:46,440 --> 02:06:52,560 Speaker 3: I'm done with him. By the way, better chance i 2741 02:06:52,760 --> 02:06:56,000 Speaker 3: U plays for a national championship or the Colts play 2742 02:06:56,040 --> 02:06:56,800 Speaker 3: for a super Bowl. 2743 02:06:58,320 --> 02:07:01,760 Speaker 14: It's a great question. I would you national championship? You 2744 02:07:01,880 --> 02:07:04,120 Speaker 14: just see, Yeah, what does happened to my team? 2745 02:07:04,200 --> 02:07:04,400 Speaker 10: Lord? 2746 02:07:04,440 --> 02:07:06,840 Speaker 16: Have mercy? And before you answer, the greatest thing ever 2747 02:07:06,880 --> 02:07:07,680 Speaker 16: assembled the. 2748 02:07:07,760 --> 02:07:11,920 Speaker 3: Fact that jeff Rickord just responded to that statement I 2749 02:07:12,000 --> 02:07:14,960 Speaker 3: made with that's a great question. 2750 02:07:16,080 --> 02:07:18,880 Speaker 16: When we're in the freaking twilight though. 2751 02:07:19,080 --> 02:07:21,840 Speaker 3: I just said that out loud, Indiana playing for a 2752 02:07:21,920 --> 02:07:25,040 Speaker 3: college football national championship or the Colts playing for a 2753 02:07:25,120 --> 02:07:26,960 Speaker 3: super Bowl, and neither of you laughed. 2754 02:07:27,080 --> 02:07:29,240 Speaker 11: I'll tell you why. Though nobody laughed. This is what's 2755 02:07:29,280 --> 02:07:32,920 Speaker 11: interesting because it's not just this this little this little 2756 02:07:33,200 --> 02:07:37,280 Speaker 11: table here. We all know that Indiana went to the 2757 02:07:37,320 --> 02:07:40,480 Speaker 11: playoffs last year, and by most accounts, everybody thinks are 2758 02:07:40,480 --> 02:07:42,520 Speaker 11: a better football team this year. So you get a 2759 02:07:42,520 --> 02:07:44,760 Speaker 11: break along the way, you get rolling. You saw the 2760 02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:49,280 Speaker 11: speed and physicality. You think it's not so crazy. I 2761 02:07:49,280 --> 02:07:50,800 Speaker 11: don't know that i'd put money on it yet, but 2762 02:07:50,800 --> 02:07:53,240 Speaker 11: it's not so crazy. I was looking at stuff last night. 2763 02:07:53,560 --> 02:07:57,400 Speaker 11: Computer models right now give the Colts a five percent 2764 02:07:57,520 --> 02:08:01,200 Speaker 11: chance of going to the super Bowl. Think about that. 2765 02:08:01,160 --> 02:08:03,240 Speaker 14: That's five percent more than I had coming into this season. 2766 02:08:03,320 --> 02:08:06,120 Speaker 14: A sure, right, that's insane. 2767 02:08:06,120 --> 02:08:08,720 Speaker 11: Mark, does it sound totally insane from your perspective? Not 2768 02:08:08,720 --> 02:08:09,720 Speaker 11: necessarily insane. 2769 02:08:10,520 --> 02:08:12,920 Speaker 16: I'm going to choose the cults out of spite. 2770 02:08:14,400 --> 02:08:14,920 Speaker 15: Indiana. 2771 02:08:14,960 --> 02:08:17,080 Speaker 16: I'll hope you lose this weekend against Iowa. Now look 2772 02:08:17,120 --> 02:08:17,800 Speaker 16: at the doubling. 2773 02:08:17,880 --> 02:08:20,520 Speaker 3: Wow, come on, you can make some pretty good money. 2774 02:08:20,680 --> 02:08:23,600 Speaker 3: I mean, honestly, for the game that's out there. Indian 2775 02:08:23,640 --> 02:08:26,280 Speaker 3: has a touchdown favorite brother. I will never pick against 2776 02:08:26,280 --> 02:08:28,560 Speaker 3: IU football again.
