Now now I 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:50.320 gotta go to Miami and stuff it is. That's what 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:52.320 it is now. But that that was Hey, that's what 0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:53.800 it was back in the day, and that was a 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:55.840 good time. So just try to bring a little magic 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:59.920 and Billy too for the Packers as were on a 0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.560 playoff Friday, and you brought your one of your greatest out. 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.320 I see number fifty AJ Hawk right, m J Hawk 0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:06.120 is out of the building. 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.600 And now I will be honest with you, there was 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.200 there were some thoughts that number ninety was going to 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.240 enter the building here today, be completely honest with you, 0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:17.760 I have no clue where it was. I dug ironical 0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:20.079 all the way through it, and it really did feel 0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:22.680 like it was the very fitting for a BJ Rodger. 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.600 That is just a little am I a at the moment. 0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:29.320 However, the man that nobody gave enough credit to in 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:29.840 the middle of. 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.000 Those defenses, Oh my gosh, he was amazing. 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:33.799 It just took a bunch of arrows and made a 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:35.280 bunch of plays and made a bunch of tackles. And 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.079 you mentioned kway Walker. He might have to do a 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:39.120 little bit of aj hawk work this week. It might 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.400 not be the flashiest, it might not be the sexiest. 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:43.919 It might not be the one that jumps off the page, 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:47.160 but gets the job done every single time. It gets 0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.280 people to the ground. Aj Hawk into the building. Yeah, 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:51.760 need to get the good juju with some tacklers in there. 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:51.960 Now. 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:55.120 It is ironic that you couldn't find the BJ Rodgie jerseys. 0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:57.320 Ironic as BJ's. 0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:59.040 Been mia for a while and hopefully doing well, just 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:01.120 fell up the phase of the in terms of public eye, 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:04.760 which is fine, but that is hey, that is ironic. Now, 0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:08.160 it's funny when you think about bj Well, what I 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:12.120 remember about bj Rodgi initially is that when the Packers 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.440 are switching to Dom Capers and the three four, and 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:16.080 that was like new for us. We had not been 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.640 a three four defense for a long time. I don't 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.600 think I ever remembered it in my lifetime. The idea 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:25.680 was you need a big, strong, but athletic nose tackle 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:27.760 that can do a lot of things. And they're like, 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:29.160 there's one coming out in the draft. We got the 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.200 number nine pick, this guy, bj Rodgy. It was the 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:35.960 only time that I think everybody assumed like, this is 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:37.880 the right draft pick at the right time, he will 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:39.840 be available and they're gonna pick him, and Ted actually 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.920 picked him like it was it was not a surprise. 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.440 Like there wasn't a surprise pick almost every time. It 0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:47.600 was always you know, the Packers are taking somebody you 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:50.600 don't expect. They're taking Aaron Rodgers, they're taking Justin Harrold, 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:52.360 They're taking you know, and pick your guy. 0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:53.920 Even an aj Hawk. I think a lot of people 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:54.800 thought it was Vernon David. 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:55.400 That's a good one. 0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:57.640 Yeah, even though he was in that in that mix, right, 0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:00.880 everyone's like, boy, BJ Rodgy just makes a lot. That's 0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:03.640 probably a different tape or something. No, he took BJ 0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:06.560 ANDBJ worked out great, obviously. So that's the thing about 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:09.280 BJA you think about right away. But Billiot's playoff time, 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.280 and it's exciting to get the playoffs started with the 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:13.280 college football playoffs. 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:14.360 I kind of like how we're doing this. 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:16.760 I kind of like how we're doing this college semi 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.960 college semi NFL playoffs, Like it's a nice little wildcard weekend. 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:24.120 Well, and I gotta be honest when somebody immediately as 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:26.920 all the dates get laid out last year in March 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:30.000 or April or whatever it ended up being, they post 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:34.359 the little screenshot of what the schedule would be, like, 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:38.920 they always do it on different weeks, for middle of October, 0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:44.000 waiting in May, lustily for football. They're like, hey, anybody 0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:48.480 that has a wedding here in October, screw that guy, right, 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:50.520 look at the games that you're going to be missing. 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:55.359 When they posted that quick date breakdown of college football 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:59.720 Semi Final, college football college football semi Final Super Wildcard 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:03.680 Week and starting on Saturday, within three more days of football. 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.400 First thought, my mind, great weekend to be in the desert, 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.320 that is weekend to be in last night. Gosh, I 0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:13.320 mean if you had the Thursday to Monday trip going on, 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:14.680 I mean that's a long trip. 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:16.279 It's a lot of expensive dinners. 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:20.760 However, you can win it back for five daysday free Friday, Saturday, 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:21.720 Sunday Monday. 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:23.039 You have five days to wager. 0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:27.520 Also thought two great five days being the Potawatami Sports but. 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:29.160 Amazing you can wager right there. 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:32.719 But what you just said is it's going to set 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.440 the standard and these games better live up in the NFL, 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:39.480 because that one last night was instant classic written all 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:41.600 over it. At one point they broke down on the 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:45.120 score bug. When I believe it was seventeen thirteen or 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:49.920 seventeen sixteen that Miami had the football for over thirty 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:53.320 two minutes. Yeah, they did, paired to eight for Old 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:56.520 Miss and the two quarterbacks duke it out and it 0:05:56.760 --> 0:05:58.080 actually wasn't Trindidad A. 0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:00.799 Chambliss who ends up running in for the game winning score. 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.200 Amazing, you know, and Carson made the big play that 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:05.000 was back and forth all the way to the end, 0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:06.840 a heavyweight battle. 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:07.240 You know. 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:08.560 I want to see all miss win. But it was 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.920 a great game and Miami definitely deserved it. And congrats 0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:13.960 to Miami Hurricanes and their fans. I know this is 0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.159 a very exciting rebirth kind of for them back to 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:19.080 the National Championship. But Billy, watching that game last night, 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:22.160 I was thinking about that the time of possession. There 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:24.240 was a lot of comparisons. I thought to what could 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:28.080 happen with the Packers and Bears on Saturday, And I 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:31.320 was thinking, I was remarking to myself how much Miami 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.960 was kind of controlling the line of scrimmage, controlling clock, 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:36.520 controlling the flow of the game. But they were having 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.080 trouble finishing drives. At one point, they were moving it 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:40.880 through the twenties, and that's one thing La Floor talked 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:44.279 about moving it between the twenties. So ball it just 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:46.800 is a great lesson, like ball control is important. It 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:48.680 sets the tone. I think it helped Miami a lot 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:51.279 last night. Being able to tire all the defense is 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:53.240 a big thing, but you gotta finish drives. You gotta 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:54.960 put points on the board as well when you get 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:57.159 inside the twenty. And for a while Miami kept making 0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:59.400 mistakes and things like that. But through the second and 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:01.359 third quarters. It felt like a bulk of that game 0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.120 just controlling the a gap like up the middle that 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:07.400 kept running and kept being able to move the completely 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:10.880 dominated the line of scrimmage, but couldn't a lot of times, 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:14.120 couldn't finish drives until at fourth quarter. So good lessons 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:16.800 as we had into Saturday that both are important obviously well, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:20.640 and something that was plaguing Miami all night was something 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.480 that I think Packers fans have become somewhat accustomed to seeing, 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:28.160 and frustratedly so was not even just the red zone 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.320 inefficiency arm And it felt like once they got to 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:34.160 about the thirty yard line, you just had to know 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:35.920 there was going to be a false start. 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.560 Yeah, there was going to be a procedural penalty. 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:40.800 They were going to have a hold and immediately put 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.320 themselves right back behind the chains. And to be able 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.920 to continue to just pound your head against the wall 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.600 and not be able to come up with one or 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:53.800 two or three or four or five. They were like 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:56.760 five dropped I iNTS for Miami. They played an entire 0:07:56.800 --> 0:08:00.000 Green Bay Packers experience last night, going up against old men, 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:03.080 and I thought about a bunch of different things while 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:06.960 the game was ending, and you're seeing a couple of 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.920 different parts of it, Old Miss. Maybe that's where the 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:14.480 head coach, who is always the head coach in the 0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:17.400 final three minutes of a Nip and Tutt game. Maybe 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:22.840 that's where Elaine Kiffin loss was a part of the struggle, Right, 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.760 Pete Golding's defense is kind of getting run through at 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:26.800 the end of the drive. 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:27.600 You mentioned it. 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:29.400 The ball control in the time that they were on 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.880 the field played a significant factor into it. But I 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:35.520 do wonder for a guy that is not a head coach, 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.280 hadn't been a head coach now into the most two 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:41.280 important games that he has coached as a coordinator before, 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.640 he's sitting here now making all the decisions and trying 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:48.560 to play all the strategic push all the right buttons 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:52.679 from a game flowing game management style. That was probably 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:56.680 where it weighed on Old Miss the most, the loss 0:08:56.720 --> 0:09:01.640 of Kiffin. Even if Kiffen's good, not great in a 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:04.319 lot of those game management situations, he's at least doing 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:06.000 it and been doing it for a long time. The 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:10.520 other one was man Carson Beck beginning of the year, 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:16.600 What a what a case study for transfer portal Nil 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:23.720 and I mean just incredible fortune of right place, right time. 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:27.880 Carson Beck, going into twenty twenty four's college football season, 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:30.679 is thought to be right in the running for the 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:31.600 number one overall pick. 0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:34.360 Yeah, he's been talked about for a couple playing with Georgia, 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.240 he's a backup twice. They win the national title both times. 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.839 But they're like, hell, wait till you see this cat play, 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:41.840 Wait till you see this guy that might look like 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:45.560 Sid the Sloth, who we have six foot six, gonna 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:47.440 sling the ball all over the yard. It's gonna be awesome. 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:50.559 And he's got full arms, hat, full arm sleeve, dangerous deal, 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:56.800 legitimacy and comes out and is good, not great. They're 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.679 winning games because they're Georgia. Their team's great. And then 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:01.320 he gets hurt in the SEC title game. 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:05.640 Everybody loves this gunner Stockton, who doesn't look as good 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:08.800 as Carson. But the way it almost sounded like is 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:10.800 all the guys on the team are like, yeah, we 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:12.040 kind of like him better. 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.839 We gotta like him better. We were not big fans 0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:16.360 of this dude. 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:17.920 He might be a little bit full of himself with 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:20.560 all this cash that he's getting as the Georgia backup. 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.280 Quarterback winning national titles. Interesting, Yeah, we don't. 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:25.440 Necessarily know that we we vibe with him, but we 0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:28.959 rock with Gunner Stockton. And at the end of the 0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:33.720 year Georgia gets bounced out of the playoffs. I don't 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.680 know it for sure, but it seemed like one of 0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:38.560 those deals of hey, we really appreciate your service here, 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:45.680 but you know, we're good here the cowhard Benson Lebron, Yeah, 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:48.840 Ben yeah, Ben Simmons, we're good here, we got we 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:49.920 got someone, We're good here. 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:50.760 You can go somewhere else. 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.320 And he's like, well, I guess, like this is when 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:54.880 this is when I guess I gotta go to the NFL. 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:56.320 Right, this is when I gotta go to the NFL 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.000 gets the prognostications in like a fifth or a sixth 0:10:59.080 --> 0:10:59.840 round pick, which. 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:01.160 Was kind of while because he was up there for 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.240 a while, right, I mean that was the other thing, 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:05.160 you know, it was like and then it's like I 0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:07.400 remember thinking too it like, okay, Miami is am I 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:09.800 getting mixed up with cam Ward like all these like 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.240 you know what if him Ward just goes to Miami 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.600 earns himself a number one overall pick, so he's that 0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:17.680 guy Backstayton one of the Cavender twins at the time. 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:20.400 It's right he was, and I felt like she's like, well, 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.520 why don't you come to Miami. They're like, yeah, well 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:24.640 could give you like four million bucks if that sounds good. 0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:27.360 It's like, wait, okay, this sounds good. All right, all right, 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:29.959 I'm in Somewhere along the line. I think Carson Beck 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:33.480 got a Lamborghini stolen in the year twenty twenty five. 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:37.120 He had himself a hell of a year, and now 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.480 he's got himself a chance to cap it all off 0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:44.240 with a national championship and him running into the corner 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:47.640 of the end zone where there was not a single soul. 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:49.920 Oh, everybody just just departed. The whole half of the 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:51.520 field was empty. I think believe. 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:54.560 Screaming Carson Beck is one of the best visuals if 0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.920 you're a Miami Hurricanes fan that you will ever have. 0:11:57.080 --> 0:11:58.720 Gotta be a good feeling to know you're running in 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.199 for the winning touchdown and you're about to make it. 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:01.840 No one's there. 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:03.680 Like the moment that it kind of comes open, the 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.080 moment you realize I'm gonna actually score this thing got 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:08.600 to be pretty amazing. Yeah, that's a that's a good one. 0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:10.559 I was he thinking about handing Cavendar when he ran 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:12.760 in because they broke up. That was the Cavendar twin 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:14.480 that broke yes and she said he had like too 0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:16.200 big of an ego or something. There was a TikTok 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:18.240 where she's like, no, no, no, he doesn't have friends. 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.920 Isn't that friends? Remember that? Literally grind leave him alone. 0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:24.800 She's like no, She's like, no, I don't. I didn't 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:26.480 break up with him because he was cheating. I didn't 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:28.800 breakup him because I don't like it was like it 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.600 was ruthless stuff that was being said about Carson back 0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:33.559 on the last year, and I'm remembering now a lot 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:35.640 of that was. You know, it sounds funny and it shouldn't, 0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:37.120 but that was taking a hit to like his whole 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.480 image and for some people like the football image, like 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:41.520 is this guy a good team you know, the whole 0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:43.560 bull Callahan stuff from draft day, like is he a 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:44.160 good teammate? 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:46.000 Anybody comes to this guy's bay, came to. 0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:50.240 His birthday party, obviously, so Carson Beck's I don't want 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:51.920 to say villain arc but he definitely had a little 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:53.440 bit of a redemption story here as the hit him 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:56.600 to the National Championship game. You know, so remarkable one 0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:59.360 remarkable one, and and he played well last night, and 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:01.640 it was one of those your right, Billy, I thought 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:03.720 they had more chances. I thought they let a lot 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.800 of more chances go to kind of take some more 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:08.320 you know, distance between them and all Miss in that game. 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:10.200 Ole Miss probably caught up plenty of breaks to stay 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:12.319 in the game that had their own touchdown drive where 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:14.320 it looked like they might win the game, and Carson 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:16.920 Beck comes back and makes the big play and has. 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:17.640 A really nice drive. 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.800 So it was it was definitely a heavyweight to fair 0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:22.000 going down the stretch in the fourth quarter. I think 0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:24.400 you're right about Lane Kiffin's impact what he could have 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:26.960 done from a game management standpoint, But honestly, Ole Miss 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:28.760 could have still won that game, and it was just 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:31.120 one of those that somebody was gonna lose. Both played well, 0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:35.880 and you know, two kicks off the post pretty rare 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.560 to have happened. One goes in, one doesn't, how about that? 0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:41.000 But that kid, here's another one, Billy. By the way 0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:44.440 they can kick from midfield, it seems like here's another one. 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:45.640 Here's another one that's in a coming. 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.480 Looks like it was good from sixty field goal range 0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:50.480 is going to be your own forty now pretty soon 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.559 in the NFL, do we have to start shrinking the. 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:55.560 Goal posts a little bit in your own distance? I'm 0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:57.480 just asking do the old Arena League. You remember the 0:13:57.440 --> 0:14:01.120 Arena League goal posts? They were tiny, tiny. I remember 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:02.920 thinking to myself, put the huge net on the side. 0:14:03.000 --> 0:14:04.560 That would be huge, which I didn't like because I'm 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:06.120 at the Mustangs game and I want to catch ball. 0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:09.240 Oh yeah, you're pause. Yeah, you're sitting there thinking you're 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:12.160 getting one. You're like, okay, I am in perfect territory. 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:13.559 And they're like, this is the Arena League. We need 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:16.240 to save money. We need to watch those expenses. 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:17.920 If you catch one. In the NFL, now they're swapping out. 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.080 They swapped the K ball out for regular football, so 0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:22.400 but they do give you a football. Jason Willey and 0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:25.680 I watched it happen. We're both laughing. Last Bears Packers 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:27.760 game we were at together. Oh there in the press 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:29.640 facts going Jason, have you ever seen that? He goes, 0:14:29.680 --> 0:14:32.200 Not really, no, because I've always kind of wondered me too. 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:35.600 I would just I'd be tempted if I caught it. 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.920 Just a boocket. Oh that's security was there. But they're there. 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:41.640 They're gonna catch you as long as I know I'm 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:44.120 gonna get a rock. And I know we're talking on Dolphie. 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:45.560 But what I've aways thought it was interesting is the 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:47.360 custom in these sports. When I was a young kid, 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:48.720 I thought about this right because I was like, I'm 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:50.680 going to catch a ball. Like Brewers games, I'm not 0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:53.640 going to get anything for you. Yeah, exactly right. The 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:55.840 giveaways are Okay, I get my little you know, sent 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:56.520 my lunchbox. 0:14:57.400 --> 0:14:59.680 You catching a baseball. It's like an American past time. 0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:01.640 I was. You can keep that same with the pucket 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:04.160 hockey games. You know, watch for flying pucks, but if 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:05.640 it goes in the stands, you're not throwing it back. 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:08.920 Basketball you never get to keep one. You're always throwing 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:11.000 If a basketball ever went to the crowd, the ref's 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:15.120 like getting that thing back. I was a little kid, 0:15:15.120 --> 0:15:17.320 I'm like, why can't we keep that? Like that's ridiculous. 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:19.560 Other sports get to keep it. Football has always been 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:22.200 a gray area. Went to a game at County Stadium 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.120 in like ninety three, ninety four. It was a preseason game. 0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:27.480 The kick went over the net and someone in our 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:29.200 section caught the ball. Now, it was so far up 0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:31.440 the bleachers in County Stadium at the time, no one 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:32.760 was going up there to collect the ball from her, 0:15:32.800 --> 0:15:33.520 so she got to keep it. 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:34.480 It was like a rare situation. 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.040 I'm like, I remember thinking to myself, this doesn't happen 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:40.960 much in football, so it's pretty interesting. I think we 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:45.680 should we should start letting people keep basketballs. Well, that's 0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:46.080 what we usually. 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:46.920 We should start letting it. 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:50.680 Basketball is the rare one where you would think you 0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:52.600 got spauldings all over that place, all over, but to 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:56.320 see the thing is is they actually don't, and you'd 0:15:56.320 --> 0:16:00.240 be very much surprised. Sad boy, how many wait, we 0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:03.400 should probably have more basketballs, learned. I learned that too 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:06.080 in college basketball is like we have thirty five basketballs, 0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:07.360 and at times you're like where they all go? 0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:10.600 Where do they go? Well, any basketballs? The other thing 0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:11.960 is all we need is just a basketball. 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.480 So many courtside teats now that the people collecting those 0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:17.840 usually are the ones that like, getting a free basketball 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:19.920 is not as exciting to those people. They just paid 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:23.280 ten thousand dollars for these tickets. I don't think they're like, oh, yes, 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:24.320 a free basketball. 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:25.920 I need this. I'm gonna fight for this. Yeah. 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.400 The basketball ops guy and Luddy is saying, we're not 0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:30.160 ever getting away a free basketball. 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:32.640 Not why how much we paid for that? 0:16:32.920 --> 0:16:36.200 For the former football coach high school and Division III 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:38.640 is saying, there's no way in hell we're giving away foot. 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.160 You guys want to keep playing with spauldings. The next 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:42.680 one might be coming out of my pocket. And if 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:44.120 we lose more these we're going to avoid. 0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:46.400 Actually, there was a point where I worked in college football. 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:48.000 I was like, actually, let's get rid of them. These 0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:49.960 football these are awful. 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:52.560 We've been holding out of these maybe a little bit 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:53.000 too long. 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:55.240 Those would be we've gotten our value out of the price, 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.000 and those should be the autographed ones that you then 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:58.680 sell in your shop to your fans. 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:02.880 They'm always thinking for an NXA team, Yeah, not for 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:06.159 you guys, well for nil money? No, no, you never know. 0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:09.160 You got to create them revenue streams. Both teams last 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.159 night I think created a lot of revenue for them, 0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:12.960 so absolutely a lot of money was made. 0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:18.200 Great game, great spot, great location, My fate at stadium, 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:21.520 the turf a little bit better it looked like than 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:24.040 in the Super Bowl a couple of years ago, but 0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:26.000
