1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:01,920
Speaker 1: Cincinnati sports station.

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 2: Nobody covers the Bengals like ESPN fifteen thirty. We've got

3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 2: good guests from the Combine this week now, not as

4
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 2: good as if we would have broadcast from the Combine,

5
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: which was my goal for next year.

6
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: We will see.

7
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: Oh, we've had good guests on from the Combine. By

8
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 2: the way, I just saw this headline. And when I

9
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: say I just saw the headline, I acknowledge I have

10
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 2: not yet had time to click on the link to

11
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: read the piece. But the Bengals have met with Dante Corleone,

12
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 2: the Godfather, who last year was really interesting. We all

13
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,279
Speaker 2: loved Dante Corleone last year. You know, two years ago

14
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: he was coming off the blood clot which completely destroyed

15
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 2: his off season and impacted, by his own admission, his

16
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 2: conditioning and his preparedness for the twenty twenty four season.

17
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: This past year, he had a quote normal offseason. It

18
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: was weird how they used him. It was weird how

19
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: he was often not one hundred percent. And when he's

20
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: healthy and available, that defense was entirely different than when

21
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 2: he wasn't on the field. He just wasn't on the

22
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: field as much as I think he would have liked

23
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: and as much as as a as a UC fan

24
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: I would have liked, and I would imagine most Bearcad

25
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: fans would agree. So his what happens with him at

26
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 2: the next level? UM rooting like hell for that dude.

27
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 2: But what happens with him at the next level I

28
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 2: think is going to be interesting to pay attention to.

29
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: The Bengals have at least met with him. We're gonna

30
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: chat with Cyclones legend justin Vive coming up in just

31
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,639
Speaker 2: about fifteen minutes. Reds are playing this afternoon high scoring

32
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: game against the Padres nine to five during Goodyear. Today,

33
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: top of the sixth inning, San Diego is batting, Cincinnati

34
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 2: scored six times. In the bottom of the fifth inning,

35
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,199
Speaker 2: Ellie Dela Cruz has doubled and tripled. Chase Burns pitch

36
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: today went two and a third, struggled with his control,

37
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: a bit, walked to, had a wild pitch, gave up

38
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 2: a couple of hits, also struck out five. Tarn wants

39
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: to do this, and so we'll do this and then

40
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 2: we'll move on. But I believe we have we will

41
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: have fulfilled our obligation to mention this. So Bruno Mars

Speaker 3: romantic radio, would me, Bruno Mars.

76
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: I think what is best for us to promote this

77
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 2: tonight is maybe Taran, you could tell me how you

78
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 2: feel about this that for the next fifty three minutes,

79
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: I will do the rest of the show talking the

80
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: same way you just heard Bruno Mars talk.

81
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: No, please don't and two things about you don't want

82
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: to do that. I don't have to beautiful people.

83
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: What about us ugly people like myself and then myself

84
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 4: a little radio stations.

85
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: Come on now?

86
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're on like you're gonna be on

87
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 2: like a thousand radio stations on and the biggest like

88
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 2: audio company in the world. Like you would think somebody

89
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: at the mothership would have caught that. But like, what

90
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: if I spend the rest of the hour talking about

91
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 2: Brendans Sores being getting sued by the University of Cincinnati

92
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 2: and he's gonna have to fuck over a million dollars

93
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 2: but he doesn't want to be sued. And so this

94
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: adds a dimension to that game on in October when

95
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 2: they come here, it's homecoming. Like I kind of feel

96
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: like I'm I'm doing Bruno Mars and Dusty Rhodes, like

97
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 2: I I don't know that I I don't know that

98
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 2: I could could pull that off. That's why Bruno Mars

99
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 2: is who he is, and that's why I am who

100
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: I am.

101
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 1: Like, I don't I don't know that I I don't.

102
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 2: Know that I could channel the same energy if I go, hey, man,

103
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 2: the combine is happening. Oh baby, the combine is happening

104
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 2: right now in Indianapolis. Ruben Bain's got those small arms, baby,

105
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: But man, I tell you what. You watch them on

106
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 2: tape and the guy can get after the quarterback like

107
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: I am, I am, I am, I'm willing to do

108
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,239
Speaker 2: this in an effort to promote Bruno Mars in romantic radio.

109
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: Trying an ad workout here. Please keep going.

110
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 2: You're doing an ad workout in the studio. That's what's

111
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,119
Speaker 2: going on right now. Okay, all right, I mean, look,

112
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 2: it's it's it's hard to keep up. Like what you

113
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 2: just heard there from Bruno Mar was like a thirty

114
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 2: second promo and you know, we've been asked to promote

115
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 2: this and let's be on. You know, we don't do

116
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 2: a lot of Bruno Mars. We don't do a lot,

117
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: we don't do a lot of music on this show.

118
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 2: It's an AM sports talk radio show. But perhaps in

119
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: an effort to uh to talk about Bruno Mars, we

120
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 2: talk like Bruno Mars as we put forth the the

121
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 2: sports talk radio. Now when we interview Justin Vive of

122
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: the Cyclones, who is a point away from being the

123
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: Cyclones all time leader in point score, this guy's a legend.

124
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: He's played in a billion games for the Cyclones and

125
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: they're wearing their Skyline three way jerseys on Saturday. Do

126
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 2: you think Justin Vive will be weirded out if when

127
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: he joins the show and we put the phone call

128
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 2: on the air, I say to him, Justin, Vive, you,

129
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 2: beautiful hockey player, You're about to score that big goal

130
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: and be the all time leading points is it points

131
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 2: scorer in hockey because you get a point for getting

132
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 2: an assist? Justin, Vive, Baby, You've been with the Cyclones

133
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 2: for years, and I'll tell you what. The Cyclones have

134
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 2: a kind of an up and down season again. I

135
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 2: I sort of feel like I'm I'm morphing into a

136
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 2: bad version of Dusty.

137
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 1: Rhodes that I don't guest, I don't know.

138
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: Don't do that with guests. Just do it when I'm

139
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 2: like talking. What about when we take calls, I'm sure,

140
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 2: I'm sure? Now can we get the people on hold

141
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 2: to talk the same way that Bruno Mars just was like,

142
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: I know Mike is on hold, and uh because he

143
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,679
Speaker 2: calls every day and I'm sure we'll we'll have time

144
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: for him. One might argue we should talk to him

145
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: right now, but when we put Mike on the air,

146
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: do you think Mike will react? Well?

147
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: If I put him on a.

148
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 2: Go Mike, Mike, you beautiful sports talking radio collar. It

149
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 2: is awesome to hear from you. What do you want

150
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 2: to say about your Dodgors.

151
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know.

152
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 2: I think we've overdone this bit quite frankly, I don't

153
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: know that another fifty minutes of it is sustainable. But

154
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 2: make sure you check out Bruno O Mar's Romantic Radio

155
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,840

00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,080

00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 2: my free time. You know, there's Twitter is fun, but

159
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 2: I'm a bit I have a burner TikTok account and

160
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 2: I don't use my real name. I'm just tiktoking all

161
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: over the place. And I'll be watching Bruno Tonight Romantic

162
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 2: Radio at nine pm. And if you if you can't

163
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 2: find it on TikTok, then I'm sure on your favorite

164
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 2: romantic radio iHeartRadio station that was not a part of

165
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,719
Speaker 2: the show that we planned before three o'clock, that's the

166
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 2: winner out there. Yeah, I tell you someone, I'm gonna

167
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 2: be having it win a mark. We could pull out

168
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 2: the stuff that was actually good, and you know what

169
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 2: you gotta do to one of Marconi is you have

170
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 2: to nominate yourself.

171
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: Uh, I don't know if we're gonna.

172
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 5: Be doing that.

173
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 2: Twelve after five o'clock ESPN fifteen thirty. Ruben Bain has

174
00:08:54,840 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: historically short arms, and like this is you don't ignore it, right,

175
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: It is a measurable that they chart at the combine

176
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 2: for a reason. Somebody is interested in that data. Somebody,

177
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 2: let's say it's about the Bengals. Somebody in that room,

178
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 2: even though the Bengals don't have as many people in

179
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: the room as other teams, somebody in that room will

180
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 2: be tasked with talking about and maybe making the case

181
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 2: for leaning into his arm size as a reason to

182
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 2: not draft him. By the way, the Bengals aren't picking

183
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: first or third or fifth, and who knows, man, the

184
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 2: dude may be gone by the time the Bengals go

185
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 2: on the clock. Bengals may have a dress pass rush,

186
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 2: but like, you can't help but talk about him in

187
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 2: relation to the Bengals because the Bengals told us to

188
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,679
Speaker 2: Duke Tobin when he said pass rush is king, I

189
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 2: think dramatically sent the offseason conversation toward a very specific direction.

190
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 2: How do they get better at getting after the quarterback

191
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 2: that's gonna happen with internal options. It's impossible to imagine

192
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 2: the Bengals pass rush being better in twenty twenty six

193
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 2: if Miles Murphy doesn't continue his ascension. And one of

194
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 2: the cool stories in the second half of the season

195
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 2: was felt like the light bulb came on with Miles Murphy.

196
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 2: It is really hard to imagine the pass rush getting

197
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 2: dramatically better if Schamar Stewart isn't at least on the

198
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 2: field and hopefully productive. And then it's you know, you

199
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: talk about free agency. They need they need inside pass

200
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 2: rush help. They're gonna be able to They're gonna need

201
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 2: an outside pass rush help. It's hard to imagine the

202
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 2: Bengals pass rush being dramatically better, being king if you will,

203
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 2: if they don't address it in a free agency. But

204
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 2: if you're the team that's replacing Trey Hendrickson and the

205
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 2: team that's needed an upgrade at getting after the quarterback

206
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: for a while now, going back to when they took

207
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 2: Miles Murphy, and this dude's available and nine teams have

208
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 2: passed on him, how do you not at least talk

209
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 2: about drafting Ruben Bain. What's interesting about the Bengals is

210
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: they're the team that has kind of prioritized traits. Now,

211
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 2: it is an oversimplification to say that Shamar Stewart didn't

212
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 2: produce in college because he was disruptive. Like he did,

213
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 2: wreak some havoc, He constantly beat his blocker. He was disruptive.

214
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 2: And disruptions are not insignificant. They can translate to the NFL.

215
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: If you got an edge who's disruptive, good things are

216
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 2: gonna happen, even if he's not finishing plays. But I

217
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 2: do think there's like a baseline number of sacks you

218
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 2: are looking for and or Jamar Shamar Stewart did not

219
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: post that number of sacks either in his last year

220
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 2: at Texas A and M or over the course of

221
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 2: his entire college football career. But the Bengals still took him.

222
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: Why because they loved the measurables. They leaned on the measurables.

223
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 2: They prioritized the measurables. Does that work in the opposite

224
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 2: direction when it comes to a guy like Ruben bain Hey, Look, man,

225
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 2: we see what he does on tape. Twenty and a

226
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: half sacks in his college career and a half last

227
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: season in the National title game. He was I thought

228
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: at times he was the best player on the field.

229
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 2: He was awesome. I don't know if you root for

230
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 2: an NFL team that needs a better pass rush, I

231
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 2: don't know how he'll watch that game against against Indiana

232
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 2: and didn't think about what that dude would look like

233
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 2: in your team's uniform, which for us as the Bengals,

234
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: So is it like the opposite this year where they go, God,

235
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 2: you know what, look at the film.

236
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: Look at what he does.

237
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: He sacking the quarterback, he's making plays against the run,

238
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: he's disruptive. Hell, he had a pick last year. Yeah,

239
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 2: but you know what, short arms. I don't know that

240
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: any of us have the answer. We may have what

241
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 2: we would want the answer to be, which for me,

242
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 2: it's just watch the tape.

243
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: Dude.

244
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 2: Dude can play. He had short arms in college, played

245
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 2: at a really high level. And if it's not Ruben

246
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 2: Bain and you still need an edge rusher in the draft, cool,

247
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 2: then who you're gonna get When do you get to

248
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 2: get him? That's also a part of this. But what

249
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 2: makes the Bengals really interesting is is they're the team

250
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 2: that in the first round last year raised eyebrows, taking

251
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,359
Speaker 2: a guy who wasn't that productive because they loved the measurable.

252
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 2: The opposite is a dude on tape is doing everything

253
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 2: you could ever ask, but there's this one measurable to

254
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: not like. Does that compel them to not take them?

255
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 2: And if they don't, and if he ends up being

256
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: as good as a lot of people think he can

257
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: be a what will they have done in lieu of

258
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 2: taking Ruben Bain two? How bad are they gonna look

259
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 2: if he ends up being as good at the next

260
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,599
Speaker 2: level as he was in Miami despite having short arms.

261
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 2: For me and I think for a lot of us,

262
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 2: it's just put the tape on dudes making football plays.

263
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: He'll figure it out. None of us are dismissing what

264
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 2: short arms can mean for an edge guy. None of

265
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 2: us are dismissing the metric itself.

266
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: And by the way, it's.

267
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 2: Only one, like, there's other things you're gonna look at.

268
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 2: But well, the Bengals do what they did with Shamar

269
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 2: Stewart last year, but in a bizarro world, Shamar Stewart

270
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: didn't put as much on tape as many would like.

271
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 2: Bengals were cool with have taken him because boy, the

272
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 2: tape measure stuff looked really good. The tape measure thing.

273
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 2: It's one thing with Ruben Bain doesn't look nearly as good.

274
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 2: If he's there, big if will they not take him

275
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 2: despite what he put on film. Eighteen minutes after five

299
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 2: aren't the Cyclones for a night. Instead, they're three Ways.

300
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 2: They're wearing Skyline inspired Cincinnati three Ways jersey and Justin

301
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: Vive is with us. I'm told he is the Cyclones

Speaker 2: resident Skyline expert, which makes sense given the and he

303
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 2: went to school in the area. Kind enough to join us.

304
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,200

305
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: time points record for the Cincinnati Cyclones, so if he

306
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 2: gets a point this weekend, he'll be the franchises all

307
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 2: time leader. You may see history if you go to

308
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 2: the game on a Saturday night. Justin, It's awesome to

309
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:16,080

Speaker 5: I'm just excited for hopefully the big turnout here on

312
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 5: Saturday and just the all around kind of cool event,

313
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 5: cool jerseys.

314
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 2: When players join the Cyclones, what do you tell him

315
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 2: about going to Skyline.

316
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 5: I think the first thing I always say is you

317
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 5: just got to go in with an open mind. I mean,

318
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 5: there's guys from all over the country, all over the world,

319
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 5: and when some people here at chili and you know,

320
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 5: spaghetti and cheese, it kind of sends them the wrong message.

321
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 5: But I just you gotta go in, you gotta sit down,

322
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 5: order a bunch of options and kind of just give

323
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 5: it a go. And I would say, you know, a

324
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 5: good percentage of the time the guys come back the

325
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 5: next day in the locker room and are actually pleasantly surprised.

326
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is what real leadership in the locker room

327
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 2: is all about. You know, the guy who's been here

328
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 2: for a while, who knows where to go get making

329
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 2: sure the guy's good to skyline and have a great experience.

330
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: More than anything you do on the ice, this is pivotal.

331
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 5: I would say so myself. I mean I got kind

332
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 5: of turned onto it early on here and ever since

333
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 5: I've been a massive supporter. And you know, I'm just

334
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,479
Speaker 5: pumped out. We're partnering with him again for another jersey.

335
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: No, it's cool. The jerseys are are terrific.

336
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: You Earlier this year we had Juan when you played

337
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 2: in your five hundredth game as a member of the

338
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Cyclones, you are a point away from becoming the

339
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 2: franchise's all time leader in points.

340
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 1: What will that record mean to you?

341
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 5: Kind of along though the same line as last time

342
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 5: we chatted, I actually didn't really know where I fell,

343
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 5: like in the order of things, just because it's a

344
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 5: bit confusing with all the different kind of leagues in

345
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 5: the different franchises, moving to different cities and stuff like that.

346
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 5: But Rudy actually kind of told me last week that

347
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 5: I was two back, and I was able to get

348
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 5: a point this past weekend, so now it's one back.

349
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 5: But no, I mean another kind of awesome milestone to

350
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 5: look back on and kind of, you know, reflect on

351
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 5: an awesome career here in Cincy and the place that

352
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 5: I've spent the majority of my time, and you know

353
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 5: place obviously that will probably be home for the remainder

354
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 5: of my career for sure, and probably well on into

355
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 5: my kid's future.

356
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: You joined me, as I mentioned when you became you know,

357
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 2: you played in your five hundredth game, and there was

358
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 2: a very brief work stoppage in the EHL and I've

359
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 2: been thinking a lot about the schedule. So I want

360
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 2: you to kind of take me into inside this weekend.

361
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 2: So you guys play a game match, you play a

362
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 2: game on Friday at Fort Wayne. You're then going to

363
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 2: come back and play the Cincinnati three on Saturday. Then

364
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 2: you'll have a day game at three o'clock game, but

365
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 2: a day game against Kalamazoo on Sunday. What are these

366
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 2: weekends like when you're playing three games in two cities

367
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 2: in less than forty eight hours.

368
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 5: The easy answer probably just a blur, you know, and

369
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 5: I mean with the game last night too. When you

370
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 5: play on a Wednesday, it really adds a wrinkle to

371
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 5: the week because usually you can kind of rest up

372
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 5: and gear up, kind of like a full week to prepare.

373
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 5: When you play Wednesday, it's kind of it's just it's

374
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,640
Speaker 5: a lot of balance. You know, guys played last night,

375
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 5: and then today's more of like an optional recovery day.

376
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 5: And then you know you're in four Wayne Friday, get

377
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 5: back late two three a m. Saturday, turn around, play

378
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 5: Saturday night, and then the Sunday one that is usually

379
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 5: the one where you know the word the blur comes

380
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 5: into it. You know, you're kind of sleep deprived, you're sore,

381
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 5: you know, obviously tired, and but at the same time,

382
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 5: it's you know, those are the games at the end

383
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 5: of the year that you know, if you miss the

384
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 5: playoffs by two, four, six points, whatever it is, you

385
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 5: know you kind of look back to those those kind

386
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 5: of sleepy Sunday games where you're like, oh, man, I

387
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 5: really you know, I wish we brought it a little

388
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 5: more on that Sunday. We could have stolen one here

389
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 5: or there. And you know, it's the difference at the

390
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 5: end of the year.

391
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 2: Is for the young guys who are just getting their

392
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 2: first taste of of pro hockey, Is this the time

393
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 2: of year that can be most difficult where you guys

394
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 2: have been at it for months and yet that light

395
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 2: at the end of the tunnel is still way in

396
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 2: the distance. Is this is this the hardest time of

397
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 2: year to make the adjustment for those young guys just

398
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 2: getting used to pro hockey in the schedule.

399
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 5: One hundred percent, I say every year, like the dog

400
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 5: days between kind of mid February to mid March are also,

401
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 5: I say, is kind of when seasons are you know,

402
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 5: a lot of times one or loss. Uh, you know,

403
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 5: you're sometimes you're a few points in kind of with

404
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 5: teams chasing you, or you're a few points out team,

405
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 5: like you're trying to chase teams. So it's kind of

406
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 5: that really kind of moving in the standing time. But

407
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 5: also a lot of these guys played college hockey, so

408
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 5: they're you know, they only played thirty five forty games max,

409
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 5: and we just kind of hit that mark a few

410
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 5: weeks ago, so they're not really been used to playing

411
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 5: this many games. So that's definitely the biggest adjustment too.

412
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: How much Olympic hockey did you get to watch?

413
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 5: Quite a bit? Actually? I watched basically all the knockout

414
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 5: round and then I was able to watch the majority

415
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 5: of the US and Canada's all their round robin games.

416
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,640
Speaker 2: Are you able to watch those games purely for enjoyment

417
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 2: as a fan or you like, are you putting yourself

418
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 2: on the ice? Are you watching it like a coach?

419
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 5: Like?

420
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: How do you consume those games?

421
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 5: I would say a little bit of kind of comparing, contrasting,

422
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 5: kind of studying, taking some notes or whatever, But for

423
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 5: the most part, a lot is for enjoyment. You know,

424
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 5: it's such a kind of rare thing nowadays with them

425
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 5: not going to a few Olympics and stuff. It's just

426
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 5: kind of the ability to sit back and see best

427
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 5: on best is just so cool and just so fun

428
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 5: for obviously people that have grown up loving hockey, like

429
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 5: most Canadians, so it's just really cool thing just to

430
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 5: be able to sit there and watch. I guess I'm

431
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 5: a little unique. So I'm a dual citizen, so I'm

432
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 5: kind of neutral when it came to the gold medal game.

433
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 2: But yeah, so you had no rooting interest on Sunday morning, Ah.

434
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 5: Honest, Like so many people ask me, I'm now officially,

435
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 5: I think spent exactly half my life in both country,

436
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 5: so right, I mean, And so that's kind of a

437
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 5: toss up. I guess technically, since I played for Team

438
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 5: USA in the Junior World Championships and stuff like that,

439
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 5: I lean towards the US when it comes internationally, but

440
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 5: not by much.

441
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 2: What can an event like that because I don't care

442
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 2: which country you were rooting for. Obviously here we were

443
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 2: rooting for the United States. It was just an awesome

444
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,959
Speaker 2: sporting event, right, it was great hockey. Folks who typically

445
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 2: don't watch a lot of hockey were like completely invested.

446
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: What can a game like that?

447
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 2: What can an event like that won by the United States,

448
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,479
Speaker 2: What can that mean for hockey in this country?

449
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 5: Oh, I mean it's massive, Like just I would say,

450
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 5: with the women doing what they did through the tournament

451
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 5: and just dismantling basically every team they played, and then

452
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 5: the men's come up and you know, some tougher, hard

453
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 5: plought games, but at the end of the day they

454
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,919
Speaker 5: also bring a gold back. It's like I feel like

455
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 5: anytime I picked my phone up or turn on the

456
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 5: TV for the last week, it's something about the gold

457
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 5: medal hockey teams and just the US is so massive

458
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 5: and so many kids watching all that stuff that I mean,

459
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 5: it kind of that's how Canada got as big as

460
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 5: they are with hockey. Is you know, growing up, it

461
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 5: was just every four years, Canada's gonna win gold. They're

462
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 5: gonna have a good shot at it. Whatever it is.

463
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 5: It's just that's how you kind of grow up. And

464
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 5: you know, hopefully a lot of kids were watching those

465
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 5: games and you know, stick with it, and you know,

466
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,040

546
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 2: voice hurts when I do that. This Reds Padres game

547
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 2: is like never gonna end. During the bottom of the

548
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 2: seventh inning, by the I'm sure the players are delighted.

549
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 2: It's ten to nine, the Reds lead. Here's the good

550
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 2: stuff that happened in this game. Ellie deler Cruz had

551
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 2: a double and a triple and he drove in a

552
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 2: couple of runs. Spencer Steer reached base three times and

553
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: scored twice. Else Noelve Marte drove in three runs. Tyler

554
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 2: Callahan hit a home run. Will Banfield cleared the bases

555
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 2: with a double. Chase Burns went two and a third

556
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 2: and gave up a run, struck out five. Here's the

557
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 2: bad Nick Sando, whose work I'm not all that familiar

558
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 2: with gave up two runs in two thirds of an inning.

559
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 2: He was one of the nasty boys compared to Graham Ashcraft,

560
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 2: who gave up six runs, all earned, in one.

561
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: Third of an inning.

562
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 2: But the Reds do lead the game ten to nine

563
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 2: as they bat in the bottom of the seventh inning.

564
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 2: What else do we have for sports head lines? Got

565
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 2: blue Jackets are back in action tonight in Boston, coming

566
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 2: off the Olympic break. Columbus had won ten out of

567
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 2: eleven before everybody in the NHL had to take a break.

568
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 2: We were talking before about the Steelers poor ranking in

569
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 2: the NFLPA report cards, which they've not publicized but which

570
00:29:55,560 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 2: have leaked. Here are the grades the NFLPA grades the

571
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 2: Bengals have gotten. I got this off the Twitter feed

572
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 2: of Andrew fox Miller, who does a great job with

573
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 2: James Rapine on Cincinnati Bengals talk.

574
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:11,239
Speaker 1: All Right, here we go.

575
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 2: I'll run them down for you, and I'm just I'm

576
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 2: reading them in order that they're listed here. Treatment of

577
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 2: families F minus, home game field D minus, Food and

578
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:32,960

00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 2: are and I'm not going to mention what they are.

580
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: There are two.

581
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 2: National chain restaurants that I will not eat at.

582
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: One that I haven't eaten at in twenty nine years.

583
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,239
Speaker 2: The other I haven't eaten at in maybe like twenty one,

584
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: twenty two, twenty three years. I will not eat at now.

585
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: If I was forced to, I would. I don't know

586
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 2: why I would be forced to. But as bad as

587
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 2: they are, and I'm not going to mention them, don't ask,

588
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 2: I still wouldn't give them F minuses. Like F minuses,

589
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 2: if you eat the food, it's gonna kill you food,

590
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 2: and it's food and dining areas, so maybe it's not

591
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 2: just like the taste of the food. F minus nutritionist

00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 2: I mentioned before he was waiting on hold. It would

606
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: be rather mean of me to than not take his

607
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 2: phone call. Mike, go ahead, you're on ESPN fifteen thirty.

613
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,440

00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 2: of talking about sports on the radio?

00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: I guess what's second to last year with the Reds.

624
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 2: Maybe last Maybe it wasn't his last year might have

625
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 2: been as whatever toward the end of his career with

626
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 2: the Reds when he wasn't healthy and he spent time

627
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 2: in the booth doing mainly TV, but there was one

628
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 2: memorable game where he did radio.

629
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: He was terrific.

630
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 2: And I think with Joey you get humor, although I'm

631
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: sure they're gonna be viewers who don't get his brand

632
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: of humor, but there's going to be humor. I think

633
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 2: few players of Joey's generation are as thoughtful and are

634
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 2: as dedicated to their craft. Like this strikes me. If

635
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: Joey Vado is going to do something, he's really gonna

636
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 2: work at it. You and I both know that there

637
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 2: are there are former players who have gone into the

638
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: booth and you could tell like they.

639
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: Really don't work at it.

640
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 2: You get the sense, I get the sense at least

641
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 2: that that Joey is is really going to work at

642
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 2: his craft. He's gonna work really hard, and he's going

643
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 2: to bring to the table all the things that we

644
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,399
Speaker 2: saw certainly over the second half of his career, his personality,

645
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 2: his willingness to analyze and dissect. He's obviously going to

646
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 2: bring a former player's perspective who played across a long

647
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 2: stretch of time. I'm with you, Mike. I think Joey

648
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 2: Vada doing games is going to be terrific.

649
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 8: Yeah, I can't wait. Do you did? You Have you

650
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 8: heard any inkling to the Alex Pierce going to the Steelers?

651
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 2: Uh?

652
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: I think Alec Peerce is going to have a whole

653
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:42,240
Speaker 1: lot of suitors.

654
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 2: I haven't. I don't know that I've seen. If I've

655
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 2: seen Alec Pierce and the Steelers, it hasn't necessarily stood

656
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 2: out to me. I think Alec Pierce. I mean right now,

657
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:52,840
Speaker 2: one of the things they're wondering in Indianapolis is like,

658
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 2: can they really afford to let him walk? If they do,

659
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 2: they're going to be a lot of teams interested in

660
00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:58,280
Speaker 2: Alec Pierce.

661
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 8: Yeah. I think he's foolish.

662
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 2: So I love that.

663
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 5: Guy, don't you have?

664
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 2: Since he was in school? Yeah, I mean look back

665
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 2: to back years. Has led the league in yards per reception,

666
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 2: which you know, if you watched him at you see, Mike,

667
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 2: you always knew he could go catch the deep ball,

668
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 2: like he was kind of the deep ball specialist. And

669
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 2: then in his last season you saw him run you know,

670
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 2: every route on the tree as they say, like he

671
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 2: just he expanded what he could do. But his deep

672
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:33,359
Speaker 2: threat playmaking ability, which team in the league wouldn't want

673
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 2: that had over twenty one yards per reception last year.

674
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 2: He can run streak routes, He can run a lot

675
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 2: of different types of routes. Alec Pearce is going to

676
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 2: make a lot of money this offseason.

677
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 8: I hope so, because he just seems like such a

678
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 8: good kid for a young man, not a kid. And

679
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 8: how about how about what well Bruno Mars, I'm sorry,

680
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,320
Speaker 8: I I'm just I know the guys a break talent

681
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,879
Speaker 8: and everything. I'm just not down with. I'd rather hear

682
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 8: sly in the family stone myself, But anyway, that's a

683
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 8: different genre. But how about those Florida Gators eight in

684
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 8: a row on the road in Texas?

685
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 2: Way?

686
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 8: This team is dangerous?

687
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: Well awesome, They're awesome.

688
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're they're They're peaking at precisely the right time,

689
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,879
Speaker 2: top thirteen in both offensive and defensive efficiency. That they

690
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 2: haven't lost since one of the more puzzling losses of

691
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 2: the season. They've they've actually got a couple they lost

692
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 2: to Auburn, and I was thinking about them today because

693
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 2: you ceased to last to play TCU. That's a TCU

694
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 2: team that has some head scratching losses. TCU got Florida

695
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 2: at the right time because it was Thanksgiving. But TCU

696
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 2: beat Florida. Since then, they've taken care of business against Alabama,

697
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 2: they have beaten Kentucky, they've beaten Georgia, beat Texas last night.

698
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 2: Running away with the SEC. You know it's Florida is

699
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 2: going to be very, very difficult to beat in the

700
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 2: NCAA tournament. There's there's no question about. Look, the SEC

701
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 2: is down this year relative to what they have been,

702
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 2: but Todd Golden's team is playing extraordinarily well, especially on

703
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 2: the defensive end of the floor.

704
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,479
Speaker 8: Yeah, they are in their guard place, getting a little

705
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 8: better offensively too. Thanks for the time, though, now you've

706
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 8: got to go.

707
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 2: Thanks Mike, anything for you, man, take care of that nosebleed.

708

00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: that or is the show over? We have one?
