How are you? 48 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 5: Oh? 49 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, Oh, there we go. 50 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 7: That is an intro right there. 51 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: I love it. 52 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 6: You know, you would think we were going back to 53 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 6: the national championship after that intro let alone of five 54 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 6: and seventh season where we were, I will let you know, 55 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 6: we are well regarded as the Harvard of the South. 56 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 6: We were at the top of the ATR ranking, so 57 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 6: we were at the front of the line for the 58 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 6: five and seven teams to make a bowl game. But 59 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 6: you know, we probably decided we needed to focus on 60 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 6: academics and skip that bowl game. So that's the way 61 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 6: it's been going down in Tallahassee recently. But it's great 62 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 6: to be all man, how are we doing well? 63 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 2: It's great to talk to you, Danny. 64 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 5: And obviously we're dealing with what we always deal with, 65 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 5: which is chaos. And if it's not college football, it's 66 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 5: it's not chaotic and vice versa. But what what do 67 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 5: you find the most flamboyantly ridiculous of the last few 68 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 5: days because there's so many people that have a chuckle 69 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 5: at but there's also a lot of money involved and 70 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 5: people that have worked very hard to get to wherever 71 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 5: they think they deserve to be. 72 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts, Danny. 73 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 6: Probably the thing that was both like, oh my goodness, 74 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 6: we're actually gonna get something happening was when Alabama popped 75 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 6: up at nine, which was exactly where they were the 76 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 6: week before, and I was like, oh my gosh, they 77 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 6: didn't even penalize Alabama at all, didn't even drop them 78 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 6: to ten, which they could have still been in by 79 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 6: the way, they didn't even penalize them at all. So 80 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 6: the minute they had Alabama in, you're like, oh, Miami 81 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 6: or a Notre Dame, which one's gonna get screwed? And 82 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 6: then you're like, all right, who is it going to 83 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 6: be it? And of course we find out it's Miami 84 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 6: that gets screwed. That to me was the most egregious thing. 85 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 7: Like I I was pounding the. 86 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 6: Table for Miami over Notre Dame because I thought that 87 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 6: that was the game that took place in the field. 88 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 7: Like I was a firm believer in. 89 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 6: That, but as soon as we saw that take place, 90 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 6: I was like, well, no name now as a team 91 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 6: that should be ticked off and irritated. I think they 92 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 6: got screwed. And Bama the team that got this free 93 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 6: pass to the College Football playoff, so that was probably 94 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 6: I mean those three obviously, that's where a lot of 95 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 6: the bait was around. We could get into the group 96 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 6: of five teams occupying two spots if you want. I 97 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 6: don't love that, and I've been on that for about 98 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 6: a month now. It's not two group of teams, a 99 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 6: group of five teams to meet it, so agree to 100 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 6: it's one guaranteed every single year. Like last year, I 101 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 6: had no problem with Boise State being in the College 102 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 6: Football Playoffs. They went toe to toe with Oregon, they 103 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 6: lost by three points. They had a generational running back 104 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 6: in Ashton gent Like to me, they had earned the 105 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 6: spot in the College Football Playoffs, so I didn't have 106 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 6: a problem with that, and they were ranked inside the. 107 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 7: Top twelve this year. 108 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 6: You could see this happening when USF who was a favorite, 109 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 6: they got. 110 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 7: Housed by Miami. 111 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 6: Earlier this season, Twulane was the next thing, and it 112 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 6: was like, oh, it's two lane here. They got housed 113 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 6: by Ole Miss forty five to ten. And as I'm 114 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 6: watching all these teams go down, I'm like, oh my gosh, 115 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 6: we have to have one of these, let alone two. 116 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 6: I just think there's got to be a requirement that 117 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 6: they should have to play multiple Power four teams, or 118 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 6: they have to be ranked in the top fifteen somewhere 119 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 6: where there's just where you don't just hand them spots 120 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 6: when some years they might just not be deserving, which 121 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 6: I think is. 122 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 8: This year Danny Notre Dame being left out and then saying, 123 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 8: you know what, forget it. We don't want to play 124 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 8: in a ball game. We don't care what ballgame we 125 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 8: get invited to. What do you make of their decision 126 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 8: to say we're taking our ball and going home. 127 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 7: Tam, I don't like it. 128 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 6: Some college football fan, I would have loved to see 129 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 6: Notre Dame play one more time, But I understand it. 130 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 6: I mean, I remember two years ago Florida State was undefeated, 131 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 6: like I think we had like some name did lose 132 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 6: twice like I loved. I don't know if you guys 133 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 6: have seen Clark leavest comments at Vanderbilt. The head coach, 134 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 6: he was that your team ever think about sitting out 135 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 6: a bowl and he said no, He said, well, I 136 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 6: felt like we should have been in. We did lose 137 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 6: two games, and I understand it. Marcus Freeman didn't have 138 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 6: that same tact. And you know, going back to Florida 139 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 6: State when they got left out in twenty twenty five 140 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 6: and they were undefeated, they did not lose, and they 141 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 6: were a conference champion. I was livid, and I know 142 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 6: a lot of I was like, man, should we screw 143 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 6: over the system and say screw you to the Orange 144 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 6: Bowl and sit this thing out? And of course Florida 145 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 6: State went ahead and played in the game, but if 146 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 6: you watched it, it was a tarnage to the brand. 147 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 6: I mean, they got smoked sixty three to three by 148 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 6: Georgia because half the team had opted out. The half 149 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 6: that was left over, you under, there were a bunch 150 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 6: of backups, young players. Georgia was invested in that game. 151 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 6: They wanted to prove to the world that they got 152 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 6: the shop. And you know, like it was, it was 153 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 6: not good. And you could make a case that Florida 154 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 6: State has not recovered since that game. So I understand it. 155 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 6: But I think the greater overall discussion here is what 156 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 6: do we do with the balls in general? Because it 157 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 6: wasn't only Notre Dame. We also had Iowa State and 158 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 6: Kansas State opt out of pretty good Bowl games. I 159 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 6: mentioned Florida State. There were seven teams that said no, 160 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 6: thank you to the Birmingham Bowl, like and I think 161 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 6: it's just we have too many. I'm not joking. There 162 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 6: were seven teams that said no. Finally, app State said 163 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 6: we'll go. You know, we'll take a little vacation there 164 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 6: to lovely Birmingham, Alabama in late December. I'm sure it's 165 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 6: wonderful there that time of year. But I do think 166 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 6: there's a greater when Petros, when you and I were playing, 167 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 6: there were twenty Bowl games. Now there's forty. They're just 168 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 6: too many. I think we need to reevaluate why we 169 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 6: have so many games. And I know why we do. 170 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 6: It's inventory for ESPN. You know who owns a lot 171 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 6: of those extra balls. 172 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: All of them? 173 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 7: But yeah, exactly, they don't. I think the CBS owns one. 174 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 6: Like there's the get. 175 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I play touchdown? Yeah, oh let's go. 176 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 6: You probably have a picture hanging up in the sun 177 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 6: Bowl somewhere. Your jersey's probably. 178 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: Somewhere deep in the lines, somewhere deep in the minds 179 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: of you. 180 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 6: Yes, but I do think we need to evaluate how 181 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 6: necessary it is to have so many or and what 182 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 6: we'll probably see soon because I do we're going to 183 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 6: get expanded playoffs is they're going to incorporate some of 184 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 6: these bowls into the playoff system whenever we get there. 185 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 5: So the whole ball system doesn't go away completely, but 186 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 5: it's going to be altered. 187 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 2: Will buy a bigger playoff? How big does that playoff 188 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: have to be? Danny twenty four? 189 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 6: You know, I don't know. And it's funny because I 190 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 6: was very pro expansion when we were at two, and 191 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 6: when we were at four, and then we went to twelve, 192 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 6: and I was like, Oh, this is kind of this 193 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 6: is a big jump. And then as early as two 194 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 6: months ago, I was like, let's not change it. Let's 195 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 6: keep it at twelve. Let's keep it at twelve. But 196 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 6: here's the thing, You've got to get rid of conference 197 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 6: championship games too. So like, that's a lot of games 198 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 6: that we saw this past weekend that if you start 199 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 6: the playoffs there and as opposed to watching Ohio State 200 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 6: and India play an unbelievable game one versus two with 201 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 6: nothing at stake. I mean, they just flip slopped the 202 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 6: seeds like nothing really mattered. Instead of how can that 203 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 6: be the case? What if we had seen Miami play 204 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 6: Fando Built and Notre Dame play you know, Utah and 205 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 6: they're playing for their playoff lives, you know, and what 206 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 6: if we saw as opposed to Old Miss sitting at 207 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 6: home waiting around, you know and having a buye to 208 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 6: play Tulane, what if we saw them play this past weekend. Like, 209 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 6: I think that's a solution to get rid of conference 210 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 6: championship games go bigger, and I think, you know, whether 211 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 6: a twenty four. 212 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 7: Fields really big? 213 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 6: You know, I'd probably prefer to start at sixteen, you know, 214 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 6: maybe even you know, some number eighteen twenty something like that. 215 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 6: Twenty four fields like a huge jump. But I do 216 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 6: think it needs to be addressed because conference championship weekend 217 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 6: again TV inventory, it's huge for all networks, but they're 218 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 6: really becoming irrelevant because there's nothing really at stake for everybody. 219 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 6: Like some teams there is, some teams there isn't. It's 220 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 6: just hard and awkward where it lies in the calendar. 221 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 6: I think that would be better off if we could 222 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 6: figure out how to start the playoffs that weekend than 223 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 6: in an expanded playoffs. That makes more because you'll need 224 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 6: those games to weed out some of the content, you know, 225 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 6: pretenders from the contenders. 226 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 7: I think that makes the most sense. 227 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 8: Danny, looking at this twelve team field now in this 228 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 8: college football playoffs, Indiana, what they did on Saturday night 229 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 8: certainly the the number one team. They're undefeated, the only 230 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 8: team left that doesn't have a loss on their record. 231 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 8: Are they the best team in this twelve field playoffs 232 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 8: moving forward? 233 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 6: They were Saturday night, you know, Like, so I had 234 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 6: to power rank the teams, and there's a reason that, 235 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 6: you know, Ohio State, I believe is still the favorite. 236 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 6: I think they're regardless of losing that game. 237 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 7: Yeah. 238 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 6: It's funny because I was in Indianapolis and I had 239 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 6: picked Indiana before the game. I was like, man, and 240 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 6: then I was walking around and I was watching Ohio 241 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 6: State warm up. 242 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 7: And I wanted to change my pick. 243 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 6: I was like, these guys, I mean they win to 244 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 6: get off the bus prize like you're doing. Like they 245 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 6: looked unbelievable and Indiana deserves so much credit for doing that. 246 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 6: But if you do see a rematch in the championship game, 247 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 6: which again is probably unlikely, I think one of them 248 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 6: gets knocked off, and probably Indiana. But like, if you 249 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 6: had a rematch in the game, I would have to 250 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 6: think that Ohio State would make some adjustments, that they 251 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 6: would clean up things on their offensive line, they would 252 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 6: call things a little bit differently, and that they would 253 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 6: do a better job getting after Rand. 254 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 7: Note for Nanda Mendoza. 255 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 6: Now, I don't I don't even like having this conversation 256 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 6: because it feels like we take away from Indiana. But 257 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 6: that's just a reality of sports, you know, and Indiana 258 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 6: would have to prove it again. 259 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 7: And I do think there. 260 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 6: Was something to it meant more to Indiana to win 261 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 6: their first Big Ten championship, like they just felt, and 262 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,719 Speaker 6: I think Ohio State in the back of their minds, they're. 263 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 7: Like, Oh, we don't have to win this game. We can. 264 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 7: This is just a way. This could be just a 265 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 7: speed bump like it was last year. 266 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 6: And I don't know if that's subconscious or not. I mean, 267 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 6: still look like they were trying really hard in the field, 268 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 6: don't get it wrong, but I do wonder if it 269 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 6: just meant more to Indiana and they were there. I 270 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 6: think Ohio State is still the most talented team in 271 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 6: college football. But I do think this thing is wide open. 272 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 6: I think there's five or six teams out of the 273 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 6: twelve that could win the national championship. 274 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 5: Danny Kanal the one and only a real hero to everybody, 275 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 5: not just in Tallahassee. Maybe Ohio State can make an 276 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 5: adjustment to their hearts. We'll see how it all. We'll 277 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 5: see how it all shakes out. Do you like Fernie 278 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 5: Mendoza for the Heisman? Maybe a little too polished in 279 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 5: the interviews, Danny, I don't know. 280 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 6: I know, are you reminded? I don't know if he 281 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 6: reminds you anybody. He's got a little Andrew Luck, a 282 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 6: little Kirk Cousins, you know, kind of that goofy nerdy, 283 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 6: like too perfect and you know, saying the right things 284 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 6: at the right time. But I do think it is genuine. 285 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 6: I think he's genuinely like naive and hasn't been the 286 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 6: center of the college football world for very long. He 287 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 6: hasn't been corrupted, you know, by the money and the 288 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 6: influence and the fame, so I kind of appreciate that. 289 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 6: And it was funny because I was watching the odds 290 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 6: Diego Diego Papa had a chance to steal the heisman. 291 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 6: It was there for the taking. In the second quarter 292 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 6: of the Big Ten Championship game when it was kind 293 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 6: of a defensive affair, Diego Pavia was leading the heisman 294 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 6: race by the odds makers, and then as soon as 295 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 6: Fernando Mendoza threw his first touchdown pass, that's when he 296 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 6: went to like it was like Diego Pavia. It was 297 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 6: minus one five in the first quarter, and then the 298 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 6: second quarter it was like back to both were plus 299 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 6: money to where now and at the end of the game, 300 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 6: Fernando Mendoza was a heavy heavy favorite. I do think 301 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 6: he won the Heisman award on Saturday night, and I 302 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 6: do think he's he deserves the award. Diego Pavi has 303 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 6: been awesome. I would have him probably coming in second, 304 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 6: but I think Fernando Mendoza has been spectacular this here 305 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 6: for the Hoosiers. 306 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 5: I saw somebody tweet out that Diego Pavia is what 307 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 5: Axe Body Spray would be as a person. 308 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 6: That is really good, that is really well done. I mean, 309 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 6: it is such a perfect I'm trying to think of 310 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 6: some other line, but that there's not much nothing better 311 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 6: than describes them line. 312 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 5: Thanks bet online for the Heisman and everything else football 313 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 5: playoff lines.

Come no, it's a beautiful Tacoma. 347 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 8: So we love Toyota and our friends at so Cal Toyota. 348 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 8: So that's next Thursday, December eighteen. 349 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,359 Speaker 2: All right, let's get to it. We call this the top. 350 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: Story of the top story of it. 351 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 5: Change can be painful because college football is experiencing the 352 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 5: reality of change right after two seasons of the College 353 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 5: Football Playoff. The only guarantee is that there is more 354 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 5: pain ahead, and we don't have time to get into 355 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 5: everything today. We also have Danny Cannell on. But here 356 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 5: we are in no particular order. The twelve teams are 357 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 5: probably the correct twelve teams. Notre Dame is right to 358 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 5: be pissed, but they lost to Miami. Here are the 359 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 5: challenges that will or should be changing the college football committee. 360 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 5: As I've been saying since day one last season, having 361 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 5: a college football committee full of administrators athletic directors specifically 362 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 5: is a mistake. There are two options. Have one administrator 363 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 5: administrate and oversee a committee of fifteen football people. Or 364 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 5: b have a computer pick the teams with a software 365 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 5: program every year. 366 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, but then what goes into the software to decide 367 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 8: with the computer? 368 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 5: Speacata Okay, Mark d Antonio, Mike Riley, Chris Alt. They're 369 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 5: perfect examples on the current committee. Former Pro Bowl tight 370 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 5: end and old Miss legend Wesley Walls, sportswriter Ivan Mazell. 371 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 2: They're also on the committee. 372 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 5: But administrators are politicians and they pride themselves on influence. 373 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 5: And the politicians are the ones who had Notre Dame 374 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 5: clearly ahead to Miami the last four weeks and then 375 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 5: flip the script and flip those teams a week after 376 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 5: neither played a game. That's a political move, it's not 377 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 5: a football move. At them there earlier, Why didn't you 378 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 5: have them there later? It's a good argument by Notre Dame, 379 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 5: what do we do wrong? Well, nothing, you What you 380 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 5: did is you're the number one Brandon College football and 381 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 5: they used your name. The selection process needs a deaf, 382 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 5: dumb and blind approach. None of us needs an athletic 383 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 5: director rewatching games the night before the bracket is released 384 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 5: and then throw it in our faces justification to how 385 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 5: hard they're working. And just use the computers. Write a 386 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 5: program that uses a head to head metric, a margin 387 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 5: of victory metric, this data up to thirty one points, 388 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 5: a game control metric that's a thing, and a quality 389 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 5: of the last three games metric. 390 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 2: That would solve the problem. 391 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,479 Speaker 5: That or just get the administed, get the politicians out 392 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 5: of it, get the brille cream guys out of it. 393 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 5: That's what ads are. They're politicians. The Conference championship games 394 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 5: are on life support. The only way the conference championship 395 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 5: games survive is if they're all elimination games. There has 396 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 5: to be something at stake. Two related things can be 397 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 5: true at the same time. Alabama deserved to be in 398 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 5: the bracket, and Alabama got a task kick Saturday by Georgia. 399 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 5: Rebrand the conference champion games as conference elimination games. All 400 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 5: the leagues can do it. Alabama or Oklahoma should have 401 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 5: been playing against Vanderbilt to be the SEC's fourth team 402 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 5: in the bracket. Michigan and USC could have played to 403 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 5: be the Big Tens number four as well. 404 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 2: I like that. 405 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 5: Win or go home, and you got to expland the 406 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 5: playoff now to sixteen or twenty four teams just chase 407 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 5: the money, Get Fox involved, guarantee the top four teams 408 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 5: and the power four leagues. 409 00:20:58,840 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 2: Let the leagues have. 410 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 5: Their nation games between the fourth and fifth place finishers. 411 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 5: And I just reference the PAC twelve in Mountain West 412 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 5: and Sun Belt and American can have their own playoff 413 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 5: and championship. We would be basically be taking teams one 414 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 5: through sixty five for the college Football Playoff and then 415 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 5: team sixty six through one. 416 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 2: Point thirty for the Division two championship. 417 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 5: James Madison and two Lane probably don't have a chance 418 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 5: to win two games, let alone four games in the 419 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 5: College Football Playoff. 420 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 3: They're gonna get smashed in their first round game. 421 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 5: All right, well we'll see, but yes, that's that's what 422 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 5: the metrics tell us. 423 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 2: Right. 424 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,719 Speaker 5: The bowl game system as we know it is on 425 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 5: life support. Notre Dame got all the attention for declining 426 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 5: a bull bid, and sure it's sour grapes. But Kansas 427 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 5: State and Iowa State, two pretty big programs. 428 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 3: How don't get this one? 429 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 2: Decline bull bits too? 430 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 5: Why Brady Quinn referred to these as exhibitions on Sunday, 431 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 5: and he's right, unless your school makes the playoff. What's 432 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 5: the value of playing on the AutoZone Liberty Bowler, the 433 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 5: BEFO Brady Bowl. 434 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 8: It's the lead up though, it's a chance to practice more. 435 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 8: It's the chance to be around the team more, and 436 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 8: you play one more. Some teams, that works right for 437 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 8: some teams they need that. For other teams, they're looking 438 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 8: to get rid of a bunch of people and turn 439 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 8: the page. Some teams want to be together and are 440 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 8: trying to retain players others are trying to flip them out. 441 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 8: It really is circumstantial, and it's hard to make people 442 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 8: circumstance match to where they're a good matchup against each other. 443 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 8: You got your own players already entering the portal that 444 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 8: you need to retain or let go, and then you're 445 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 8: also trying to coach the other guys up with the 446 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 8: Pinstripe Bowl, Tony, the Tiger Sun Bowl. 447 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it. 448 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 5: It's an awkward time of year, but some some teams 449 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 5: want it and some teams don't. More and more schools 450 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 5: and coaches might rather prepare for the portal window in 451 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 5: January and then hold a spirit at spring ball with 452 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 5: a full team and not worry about the spring portal that. 453 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 5: I mean, everybody's just making it up as they go along. 454 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 5: That's kind of what's happening now. I believe the supply 455 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 5: and demand theory will probably eat up a lot of 456 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 5: Bowl games as we know them. 457 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 8: It's unfortunate because there was a great article today, I 458 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 8: think Pete Thamil had it one of the guys on 459 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 8: the Athletic about how much money these bulls are really 460 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 8: losing even when they get teams like Nebraska who just 461 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 8: eat up the tickets if it's the Holiday Bowl or 462 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 8: the Alima Bowl. 463 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 2: They don't care. 464 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 8: They travel because they love their teams. These bulls are 465 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 8: still losing millions every year. 466 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 2: Then why do they do it? 467 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 5: ESPN inventory Notre Dame probably needs to join a conference, 468 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 5: but why if somebody has a TV deal for them, 469 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 5: why would they? Maybe this is the tipping point. We 470 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 5: all have to swallow our pride at some point. Maybe 471 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 5: it's time for Notre Dame to get on board. The 472 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 5: Irish do want everything their own way. They're fighting the 473 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 5: battle with USC. They want in the playoff as an independent, 474 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 5: and they want the ACC to bow down to them. 475 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 5: Bow down when you come of my town. To that point, 476 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 5: earlier today on am FI seventy, the Notre Dame ad 477 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 5: Pete Bavaqua ripped the ACC left to right end up 478 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 5: and down permanently, and Notre Dame didn't give the College 479 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 5: Football Playoff a big boost. Last season, The Irish played 480 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 5: four games, making it all the way to the championship game, 481 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 5: and that help. They have their own NBC TV deal, 482 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 5: it's been in place since ninety one, but they would 483 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 5: have played in the ACC title game over the weekend 484 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 5: for the right to be in the playoff. They are 485 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 5: the biggest brand in college sports. Maybe they should just 486 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 5: make amends with the ACC and get on board after 487 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,719 Speaker 5: this has happened. But they don't want to get in 488 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 5: bed with ESPN. They want the biggest piece of the 489 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 5: pie and they want to be independent as well. 490 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 8: Bavaqua said, permanently damage has been done. Yeah, with them 491 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 8: in the ACC. 492 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 5: Well, that sounds like your girlfriend in high school, right, 493 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 5: Like I can't trust you and they were talking to 494 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 5: you again. 495 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 2: Okay, we'll see we talked to you after third period? 496 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 2: What you like? Yeah? And what the hell is going 497 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: to happen in the first round? 498 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 5: I think it's pretty stupid that Old Miss and Tulane 499 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 5: are playing a first round matchup. 500 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,479 Speaker 2: It's a rematch of a September game. How'd that go? 501 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 5: Forty five to ten beat down by the Revs? Another 502 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 5: first round to Alabama. Oklahoma's a rematch from November fifteenth. 503 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 5: That was a good game, though Sooners won twenty three 504 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 5: to twenty one. 505 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 3: Yep, I was on that game. 506 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 5: Half the first round games or rematches? Can we put 507 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 5: that in the computer too? No first round rematches as 508 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 5: a metric. 509 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 3: Who I liked it. I think that could be worked in. 510 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 3: I'm not a computer major, but I think that you're not. 511 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 5: There is more pain ahead and it's gonna take time. 512 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 5: But in a nutshell dump the committee use computers. Expand 513 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 5: the playoff sixteen or twenty four. Change the conference championship 514 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 5: games to conference elimination games if you still need the 515 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 5: cash crap. 516 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: And no first round rematches. 517 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 8: You know what I don't like is no stairway. Danny 518 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 8: Knell said it earlier. We'll just use the ball games 519 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 8: as the opening rounds. I like this at home. You 520 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 8: know at Audsin next week it's Oregon playing host of 521 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 8: James Madison. You get a little home field advantage. I'd 522 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 8: like that for the bigger and bigger the playoff could make. 523 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 8: You can have it all right. You could be like 524 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 8: Notre Dame. You could be independent and being a conference 525 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 8: and have your own TV deal. I don't want to 526 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 8: use the Tony the Tiger Bowl though, as the opening 527 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,959 Speaker 8: round game, just because we want to use the bowls. 528 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 5: I could do the deal with Barzini and keep my casino. 529 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 5: I want to take the Holiday Bowl to Saudi Arabia. 530 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 5: I'd like that idea. Yeah, I don't know why the 531 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 5: acc said north of North Carolina State. You're going to 532 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 5: Saudi Arabia.

They said, hey, 572 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 9: they're making you sound like Satan. I said, what, we. 573 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: Didn't do it. 574 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 9: I was like, okay, I remember hearing it live. 575 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 2: It scared the crap out of me. 576 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 9: I had no idea. Kate's never let me know my 577 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 9: cell phone connection. 578 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: So everybody's moving on to the next thing. It was 579 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: a crazy time was World Series. 580 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 8: You're going, guys, like twenty seconds and then it fixed 581 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 8: itself because the phone system here is whack. 582 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 5: All right, So, what's the latest about the Winter Meetings? 583 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 5: Is there anything to report, Dave? I wish there was, 584 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 5: or there wasn't, or I don't know what do I. 585 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 9: Care not as far as the Dodgers go. But here's 586 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 9: the two biggest things that came out of the Winter 587 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 9: Meetings today. Pete Alonso, who lives in Tampa, Florida, which 588 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 9: is a seven hour drive from Orlando, drove to Orlando 589 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 9: today to meet with both the Baltimore Orioles and the 590 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 9: Boston Red Sox, presumably the Mets as well. But I 591 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 9: had mentioned a week or I reported a week after 592 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 9: the World Series was over that I was told by 593 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 9: my sources in Boston that their sites were set on 594 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 9: bringing back Alex Bregman and also signing Pete Alonzo. So 595 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 9: I've known that for quite some time. It feels like 596 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 9: the rest of the baseball world started to catch on. 597 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 9: But they've had kind of a void at first base 598 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 9: for a long time and they need some power from 599 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 9: that position, and Pete Alonzo certainly would drive with the 600 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 9: Green Monsters. So Pete Alonso, I don't believe it is 601 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 9: going back to the Mets. 602 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 3: Trek Scouble is the name being talked about. 603 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 8: Obviously, it's rumors right now, David with the Tigers trying 604 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 8: to lock him up to a long term deal. Can 605 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 8: they afford him, Probably not. Will they trade him before 606 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 8: this season, going into his final year of his rookie contract, 607 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 8: we'll find out. 608 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 3: What are you hearing about the big left hander. 609 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't believe he's going to be traded either. 610 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 9: The Dodgers and other teams have been knocking down the 611 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 9: schoobl door for the last two years, and the Tigers 612 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 9: wisely have not traded him because they've been in the 613 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 9: postseason the last two years. They're trying to win again 614 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 9: this year in a very winnable ale Central So I 615 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 9: believe they're just gathering information on what is being offered 616 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 9: for school Gool right now, and if for some reason 617 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 9: they they fall out of contention or don't believe they 618 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 9: have a chance to win, then there will be more 619 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 9: of a realistic possibility of him being traded at the deadline. 620 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 9: But they would get a big haul from the Dodgers, 621 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 9: from the Mets, from almost any other team. But there 622 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 9: are arguments on both sides whether or not they should 623 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 9: do it or not. But he's a generational talent. If 624 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 9: you're if this whole argument about the have and have nots, 625 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 9: and you're the Tigers that went to the postseason the 626 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 9: last two years, won the Al Central a year ago, 627 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 9: how can you justify to your fan base you're trading 628 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 9: the best pitcher in baseball? And I disagree with that 629 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 9: premised him. I do believe they can afford it. It's 630 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 9: whether or not they want to spend it. 631 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 8: Were this free agency window, you'd mentioned pen Alonzo, the 632 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 8: others that are out there as free agents, and even 633 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 8: looking ahead to next year, how much do you think 634 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 8: the undecisiveness of the CBA after this season could play 635 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 8: in to how much teams are willing to spend. If 636 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 8: the CBA changes and things look drastically different with a 637 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 8: salary cap or no salary capper, a missed season, our 638 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 8: team's going to be a little shy right now in 639 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 8: throwing out big money because of the looming maybe workstar page. 640 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 9: I was told that it's not affecting business at all. 641 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 9: The only reason why you haven't seen a lot of 642 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 9: movement yet is the biggest free agent position player has 643 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 9: not set the market, and that's Kyle Schwarber, not Kyle Tucker. 644 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 9: Kyle Tucker has his market and it may be dwindling, 645 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 9: but Kyle Schwarber is a guy that many teams that 646 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 9: are contenders, like the Phillies, the Cubs, the Red Sox, 647 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 9: among others, are trying to sign. If they can't sign Schwarber, 648 00:32:55,080 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 9: they are going to pivot to other players on the market, 649 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 9: whether it's trade or free agency. From what I was told, 650 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 9: if the Phillies don't sign Kyle Schwarber, they could pivot 651 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 9: to Kyle Tucker or Cody Bellinger. I was told that 652 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 9: during the NLBS, so the Schwarber piece really will start 653 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 9: to make the rest of the market move. But I've 654 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 9: been told there's been nothing that is looming as far 655 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 9: as the CBA expiring, that would preclude teams from giving 656 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 9: multi year deals out. I think the one thing that 657 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 9: we're seeing right now is that teams like the Pirates 658 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 9: and Marlins, who you know again, are being accused of 659 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 9: the last few years of not reinvesting the revenue sharing 660 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 9: trying to go out and spend on players. Ken Rosenthal 661 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 9: reported they offered Kyle Schwarber a four year, one hundred 662 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 9: plus million dollar deal. I guess they're trying to show, hey, 663 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 9: we're trying to spend money, but nobody's taking it. The 664 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 9: Marlins same thing. So I think those are the two 665 00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 9: examples that are related to the negotiations of the upcoming CBA. 666 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 5: The One and Only David Vasse he's on Spectrum Sports 667 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 5: Net tonight and he has Dodger Talk doubling up, and 668 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,919 Speaker 5: he's got Brian Krantz on Dodger Talk. And you saw 669 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 5: Tommy Edmond on Saturday. What did he tell you about 670 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 5: fixing that ankle? 671 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 7: Yeah? 672 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 9: I went out to One Way Memorabilia's shop in Monterey Park. 673 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 9: That's where Tommy Yedman was signing autographs. There's a hat 674 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 9: right next door, and the line went way past the hat. 675 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 9: People were getting those pastrami sandwiches while they were in line. 676 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 9: Petro's something I know you can appreciate. 677 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 7: I do like the hat. 678 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 9: But tom Yedman came in on a scooter. He was 679 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 9: on a scooter in Monterey Park with the right ankle 680 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 9: in a boot. He told me he's going to have 681 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 9: to be in that boot for the next three weeks 682 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 9: and then from there may start to put some weight 683 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 9: on that right ankle. So I could see him being 684 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 9: a little bit behind other players when spring training starts. 685 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:08,280 Speaker 3: Trade trade done, David. 686 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 8: We all love trade talk and the two names that 687 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 8: are being talked about, and again it's rumors, it's people 688 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 8: out there talking about it. But what are you hearing about? 689 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 8: TiO Oscar Hernandez and Tyler Glass now two names that 690 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 8: keep being brought up as possible trades. 691 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'll put it this way, Tim, Both of those 692 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 9: guys are not untouchable. The Dodgers do have some young 693 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 9: pitching coming up river. Ryan is going to be on 694 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,800 Speaker 9: Dodger Talk tomorrow. From what I've been told, he looked 695 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 9: fantastic since coming back from Tommy John surgery. I'm predicting 696 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 9: him to be this upcoming year's em It Sheehan. For 697 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 9: the Dodgers, I would say ta Oscar and glassnow are 698 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 9: not untouchable. Uh, ta Oscar Hernandez, if the Dodgers are 699 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 9: trying to find a way to get younger and better defensively, 700 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 9: he would be one avenue to do that. As far 701 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 9: as trying to trade him, but I'm not sure you 702 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 9: guys saw what took place in Miami over the weekend, 703 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 9: but there was some sort of celebrity softball game going on, 704 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 9: and ta Oscar Hernandez looks like he's been in the 705 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 9: lab because he looks like he has lost at least 706 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 9: fifteen pounds and is very serious in trying to evolve 707 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 9: with the father times. So Taioskar has a great spirit 708 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 9: about him. He's a great teammate, But the Dodgers are 709 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 9: trying to balance winning and getting younger moving forward. 710 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 2: What's more likely a signing for the Dodgers or a trade. 711 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 9: I feel like a trade, I really do. The Cardinals 712 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 9: are a really good trade match. There's been connections between 713 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 9: the Dodgers and Lars new Bar and Brendan Donovan that 714 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 9: obviously would help their outfield defense if they were able 715 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,240 Speaker 9: to trade for new bar who has a very close 716 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 9: relationship with sho he Otani going back to their time 717 00:36:55,520 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 9: on Team Japan World Baseball Classic. Donovan can play second, 718 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 9: he could play third, he could play left field. And 719 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 9: the Cardinals are somewhat rebooting and need some young pitching, 720 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 9: and the Dodgers have a lot of that. And Heim Bloom, 721 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 9: former GM of the Red Sox, is now in charge 722 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 9: of the Cardinals. And we know Andrew Freeman and Heim 723 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 9: Bloom have a long history, so they can make a 724 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 9: deal together. 725 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 5: All right, Dave, Well, have a great night of television 726 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 5: and rubbing elbows with the rich and famous Brian Cranston 727 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 5: on Dodger Talk with some big hot stove ideas a 728 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 5: great actor and a great guy and a big Dodger fan. 729 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 2: So thank you, De Petro. 730 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 9: I appreciate you appreciating my success.
