Uh, 401 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 4: this is Brad Doolittle. We often reference Brad on some 402 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 4: of the stuff we do here on SINCY three to sixty. 403 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 4: But he kind of dove into twenty twenty six your 404 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 4: major League baseball team entering in to the winter months, 405 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 4: what the team did, and where the projections are. I 406 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 4: found this interesting, Austin, because this is a little bit 407 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 4: different than how they view the win totals. This is 408 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 4: their win average that they put together. They have the 409 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 4: Bengal or the Reds nineteenth on this list at a 410 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 4: win average of eighty. They also have twenty six point 411 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 4: nine percent chance to get into the playoffs. What's interesting 412 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 4: about this number twenty on their list is the Pittsburgh 413 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 4: Pirates and they have their win average at seventy nine 414 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 4: point nine percent, literally zero point one behind the Cincinnati Reds. 415 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 4: This is what they ask about the Reds. Why the 416 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 4: heck didn't the Reds get a new right fielder? But 417 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting to see that win total 418 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 4: based on the ones we use from DraftKings and different 419 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 4: stuff like that, because they view the Reds as essentially 420 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 4: a twenty seven percent chance to make the playoff team 421 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 4: and an eighty win team. But they had the Pittsburgh 422 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 4: Pirates a lot closer than a lot of other outlets, 423 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 4: essentially right on the Cincinnati Reds and right behind the 424 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 4: Reds for what it's worth, Brewers eighty three point three, 425 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 4: and they had the Chicago Cubs number seven at eighty 426 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 4: eight point two. So kind of where things stand right 427 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: now against what Brad Doolittle thinks leading in from an 428 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 4: NL central point of view. But I do think again, 429 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 4: that was interesting to me because we've talked a little 430 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 4: more about the Pirates and some of the work they've 431 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 4: done to get themselves ready for the upcoming season. Coop 432 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 4: is waiting on hold, what's up? 433 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 2: Coop? 434 00:22:59,119 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 19: Hey? 435 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 2: You know how you doing? 436 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 15: Tonny Good. 437 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 2: Of pimp doing?

Let's take a break, let's come back. 499 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 15: I uh. 500 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 2: There's a piece of audio. 501 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 4: Of Richard Patino and his radio show last night where 502 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 4: he laid out and I think very upfront, very honestly, 503 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 4: the pillars to success if if they're going to have 504 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 4: that ad xavior with him as the head coach. I 505 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 4: want to play that audio and we'll react to that 506 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 4: before we get to Mowagger coming up next on ESPN 507 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 4: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station. 508 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: From the Court to the Cage, the Diamond to the Dome. 509 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: He brings the heat Moegar today at three pm on 510 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 1: ESPN fifteen thirty. 511 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 5: This is. 512 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: Welcome back since he three to sixty. 513 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 4: You are listening on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station. 514 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 2: More rolling along our number three. 515 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 4: We've got a few minutes here and we'll get to 516 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 4: Moeger for quick hits, and he'll let you know what's 517 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 4: on the Moeger Show coming up this afternoon before we 518 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 4: get to any of that. Last night, Austin Richard Patino 519 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 4: went to his radio show and was kind of asked 520 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 4: about the future and where Xavier needs to get to 521 00:26:55,080 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 4: and described the four pillars of building the Xavier basketball 522 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 4: program to a successful level. And what I respect the 523 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 4: most about this is one his honesty and two year one, 524 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 4: not even through his first season, he's putting some pressure 525 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 4: on Xavier on what they need to do to make 526 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 4: sure that they are a competitive year in and year out. 527 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 4: Take a listen to a little over two minutes to 528 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 4: what Richard Patino had to say last night. 529 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 26: There's really four parts of this thing. Number one and 530 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 26: the most important part is what's your budget? That's the 531 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 26: number one most important thing. How invested are you in winning? 532 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 26: And we've got a long way to go there. But 533 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 26: I mean this is not a coach complaining. We have 534 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 26: a long way to go to get to the level 535 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 26: of Saint John's Yukon. You know that you watch the 536 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 26: game Friday night, Yukon, Saint John's in the guarden. 537 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: How you don't want to be invested And. 538 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 26: I'm not complaining by any means, but like how you 539 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 26: don't see the return on the investment? Like that was 540 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 26: a two hour commercial for Saint John's. They're both high 541 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 26: level pro pro. So the fourth parts are competitive, Nil, 542 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 26: we got work to do there. Second part is high 543 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 26: school recruiting. We're very, very excited about the guys that 544 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 26: we're bringing in. Third part would be retention of the 545 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 26: players in your program, decision making of who you want 546 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 26: to bring back. But again it's going to come down 547 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 26: to money. If they have an agent, it's coming down 548 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 26: to money. Okay, so then you have to decide, you know, 549 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 26: do you when do you pull the plug? When do 550 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 26: you say, all right, that's too much, we're walking away. 551 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 26: And then the fourth part is the transfer portal. So 552 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 26: you know, we're starting to think about you know, you 553 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 26: don't want to distract the players right now, you don't 554 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 26: want them thinking about those things, but about those conversations 555 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 26: and kind of looking over their contracts and okay, do 556 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 26: we think this guy maybe deserves more does he deserve less? 557 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 26: You know, the hard part is like there's no real 558 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 26: market value. Your market value is what somebody's willing to 559 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 26: pay you. 560 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 2: You know, that's really it. 561 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 26: You can't go into a database anymore and say, this 562 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 26: kid's averaging twelve points a game, eight rebounds a game. 563 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 26: That's what he's supposed to be getting. So it's like 564 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 26: there's really no exact science. My only exact sciences. Get 565 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 26: as much money as you possibly can get twild a 566 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 26: roster and uh, you know, I don't know if President 567 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 26: Hannich or Greg really liked that one, but if I was, 568 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 26: I would just give me twenty million. 569 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 2: Then we'll go get it. 570 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 12: But but that's that's the hard part right now. 571 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 26: But yeah, we're starting to certainly think about that because 572 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 26: this thing is going to be done very quickly. 573 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 2: Coaches you as you you mentioned that you had the 574 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 2: meeting today. I'm sure there's meanings must increase under frequency 575 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 2: and month. 576 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 26: As you kind of near ane, Yeah, I mean you 577 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 26: have to understand all the players, not all of them, 578 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 26: but i'd probably say ninety percent of them have agents. 579 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 26: Certainly we don't want to break any tampering rules or anything, 580 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 26: but these people are reaching out and I'm sure our 581 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 26: players on this roster's. 582 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: Agents are reaching out to other teams too. It's just 583 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 2: the reality of it, you know. So you've got to 584 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 2: you've got to be ready to pivot. 585 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 26: You know, you've got to have a database of I mean, 586 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 26: they're all they're all free agents, all of them. So 587 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 26: again it's you got to build the funds to where 588 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 26: you're competing and really trying to do this at a 589 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 26: high level, and then you have to spend your money wisely. 590 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 2: There it is. 591 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 4: I love the fact Austin that a year one coach 592 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 4: is saying, if you want to have success, this is 593 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 4: what it is now right, like we know that, but 594 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 4: he's saying the quiet part out loud, one nil. That's 595 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 4: how you build, and he put it very bluntly. They've 596 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 4: got a long way to go at Xavier if you 597 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 4: want to compete with the top of the Big East 598 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 4: two high school recruits. He likes what they're doing there. 599 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 4: Three the retention piece. What I think is interesting about 600 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 4: this Austin is there so many folks that talk about 601 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 4: retention and say, well, you know, it's such a good fit. 602 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 4: The style of play is a good fit. It makes 603 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 4: sense for that player to come back. And as Richard 604 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 4: Patino said, if these players already have an agent, it 605 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 4: doesn't matter about any of that. All that matters is money. Yep, 606 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 4: he talked about the portal again that comes down to money. 607 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 4: But where I think things have gotten crazy is Richard 608 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 4: Patino talked about the lack of market value. It would 609 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 4: be one thing Austin to say, hey, look, this player 610 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 4: averaged twelve points and seven rebounds a game last year, 611 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 4: and then you go into a database and all the 612 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 4: players that average pretty near that mark, here's what they're 613 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 4: getting paid. You would at least have an idea there 614 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 4: is no market value. It is literally what a team 615 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 4: is willing to pay for someone, and the teams with 616 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 4: more money are going to be able to overpay, and 617 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 4: then that resets the number for everybody else. Again, this 618 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 4: isn't anything new that we're hearing, but I do think 619 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 4: it's refreshing to hear a coach, especially a first year coach, say, listen, 620 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 4: do no matter what we're able to do, if you 621 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 4: want to be competitive, we need to do a lot 622 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 4: better when it comes to raising money for this program. 623 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 4: And the honesty in that and them the relationships are great, 624 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 4: it's great if players love playing for Richard Patino, that's awesome, 625 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 4: but you're not dealing with the players anymore. You're now 626 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 4: dealing with those players' agents. And guess what, the agents 627 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 4: don't care about whether you like Richard Patino or not, 628 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 4: whether you like West Miller or not, whether you like 629 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 4: Travis Steel or not. All they care about is the money. 630 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 4: And it is the tough part about college basketball right now. 631 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 4: But I do think also the extreme honesty about where 632 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 4: this sport is and what's needed in this sport is 633 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 4: just laid out there by Richard Patino. By the way, 634 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 4: his club, the Xavier Musketeers, I believe are back in 635 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 4: action tomorrow. They are hosting Marquette. That is a three 636 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 4: o'clock start at the Centas Center. So that is the 637 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 4: college basketball latest, and I just thought it interesting to 638 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 4: share what Richard Patino had to say. We'll see what 639 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 4: Mulagar's got to share when he can. We come back 640 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 4: for the Moulagar Show, which comes up next on ESPN 641 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 4: fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports station. 642 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 6: W WCKY Cincinnati, and iHeartRadio station g Garanteed Human ESPN 643 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 6: fifteen thirty. 644 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 2: I heard radio from the Durban Heating Temp Star Weather Center. 645 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 12: Here's your forecast. 646 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 2: This report is sponsored by Discover. 647 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 27: As we moved through the afternoon, temperatures will climb to 648 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 27: the upper forties, right around that fifty degree mark with 649 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 27: mostly sunny skies.

When Bob Castellini was no longer 698 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 28: going to own the Reds, who did people think was 699 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 28: going to own the Reds? Elon Musk Okay, well that 700 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 28: wasn't going to happen.

I think they 707 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 2: were wanting something to come out to say, oh, Phil 708 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: can't own the team. 709 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,879 Speaker 28: Well, what on earth would suggest that that was a possibility. 710 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 28: I mean, do you know that Mike Brown owns the 711 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 28: Bengals because his dad did? And do you know who's 712 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,839 Speaker 28: going to own the team When Mike Brown's owning the team? 713 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 28: It's probably not going to be Clyde from down the street, 714 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 28: you know, like, is where is this like level of. 715 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 2: It's I think there was also there was also a 716 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 2: narrative that off, Phil just does the business side. And 717 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: I don't know exactly where that came from, but it's 718 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 2: true he does handle a lot of that stuff. But 719 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 2: I think there was people that kind of thought, oh, 720 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 2: well Phil's just going to handle the business side, somebody 721 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 2: else will be more involved in being I. 722 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 4: Don't think I realized this was a thing because I, like, 723 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,479 Speaker 4: I saw the news yesterday and then I was driving 724 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 4: in today and I saw Lance, our guy Lance McCallister 725 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 4: tweeted out, remember when the Suarez announcement created all that 726 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 4: momentum for the Reds, And I thought, did I miss 727 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 4: something this morning? Yeah? Did something happened, and a lot 728 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 4: of the replies were about the Castolini announcement. I'm like, well, 729 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 4: that has nothing to do with and it was already announced. 730 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 4: The momentum that was Like, I was taken back a 731 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 4: little bit by the amount of pushback, Like I just 732 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 4: kind of assumed that was always going to be the thing. 733 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 12: When he was named chief executive officer. 734 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 4: What was next? 735 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,839 Speaker 28: What what did we think the next step was going 736 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 28: to be. Now, I'm certainly not here today. This is 737 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 28: the greatest thing in the world. I'm not here today. 738 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 12: It's the worst thing in the world. 739 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 28: I'm just I'm surprised at people's level of surprise and 740 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 28: for some their level of frustration. Did we think that 741 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 28: when Bob Castelini decided, you know what, I'm done, that 742 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 28: like some Rando was going to be able to buy 743 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 28: the club. So I don't want to talk so much 744 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 28: about that, but I do want to talk about something 745 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 28: that's important in the announcement that Phil now owns the team. 746 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 28: We're going to spend some time on that. We got 747 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 28: to stop with this Nick Castiano's thing, man, which, by 748 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 28: the way, good for Nick Krawl for basically saying, nah, 749 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 28: we're good here. 750 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 4: Can't hold it against form just wanting to be her 751 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 4: first of all. Again, I think that should totally be allowed. 752 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 4: I think in the next CBA the players should fight 753 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 4: for that. Look, we'll give you a salary cap, sure, 754 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 4: but here's the deal. 755 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 28: The moment that I'm pulled, if I want to watch 756 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 28: the rest of the game of the dug guy with 757 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,959 Speaker 28: a cold one, I should be oh. 758 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, cigar and a cold one.
