But I do want to quickly start briefly. 13 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 2: So remember how I signed up for that basketball league 14 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 2: where fifty K was at stake. So we made the playoffs, 15 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 2: and in an unbelievable turn of events, our leading scorer, 16 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: the guy who led the league in threes, he was 17 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 2: flying back from Florida on Sunday and his flight got canceled, 18 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: so he had to miss the game and we're just 19 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: hurting for offense and we lose. But I will say this, 20 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: we played against a guy who was one of like 21 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: McDonald's All American Superstar. 22 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: This guy named Billy Preston. 23 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: He was ticketed to go to Kansas, and then he 24 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 2: got there and there was back in the pre nil 25 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 2: there was all this investigation into whether or not he 26 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 2: was eligible, and wouldn't you know it, they just he 27 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: just said, screw this, I'm not wasting my time.

See he 131 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 4: was a little bit more athletic than people give him credit, 132 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,239 Speaker 4: for and his two touchdown PASSES i thought were great. 133 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 4: Throws the one rolling over to his left in the 134 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 4: back of the end. Zone that was a great throw 135 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 4: for any. Quarterback the second touchdown over the, middle climbs 136 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 4: the pocket over the linebackers. 137 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 3: In between the. Safeties great. 138 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 4: Throw that's what you want to see from AN nfl. 139 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 4: Quarterback if you don't Like Shaduary, sanders you saw him 140 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 4: evade the pocket much earlier than he should have several. 141 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 4: Times that was the not coming on him coming out 142 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 4: of college was that he does not what's the word they. 143 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 4: Use he doesn't process as quickly as they would like 144 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 4: because he wants to see it open before he throws 145 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 4: most of the. Time and that's why he took so many. 146 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 4: Sacks that's, why you, know that's why the offensive line 147 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 4: wasn't as bad as people say it. Was it was 148 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 4: a lot of, him you, know just not seeing it 149 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 4: before he pulled the. Trigger and that happened a little 150 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 4: bit On friday. Night you, know he took a couple of. 151 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 4: Sacks there was a fourth and one play where the 152 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 4: number one option wasn't. There he immediately floats backwards and 153 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 4: it's a turnover on, Downs so he didn't even bother 154 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 4: to look at this second or third, guy AND i 155 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 4: know it's suposed to be a quick, play but that's 156 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: part of the development of a. Quarterback what's interesting about 157 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 4: that whole, situation, though, is according To The Athletic Zach, 158 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 4: jackson even after what many are calling a very successful 159 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 4: debut For Shot, GEORGIAN i THINK i think it was 160 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 4: myself fourteen to twenty. Three you mentioned one thirty, eight two, 161 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 4: touchdowns no.

PICKETT 315 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 4: i believe both practiced last week before the game the, Game, 316 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 4: yeah and so obviously they're not that. Hurt they just 317 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 4: didn't want to risk it in an unnecessary preseason. Action 318 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 4: so based on their, observations it would indicate that these two, 319 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 4: guys in addition To Joe, flacco are all still ahead 320 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 4: Of Shador.

Left, like if there's 493 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 4: anything to be said About, okay, see it's that they, 494 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 4: are without, question one of the best run franchise in THE, 495 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 4: nba and they just so happened they couldn't get over the. 496 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 4: Hump and that's the case for eighty five percent of the. 497 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 4: League so you know what's to Stop jdubb OR sj 498 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 4: putting out a tweet like hey we got one of 499 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 4: these you can never bring. 500 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 3: Home don't worry, About, like. 501 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 4: You know what's to stop? That and then that's the 502 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 4: harmless trash. Stock it is what it. Is my biggest takeaway, 503 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 4: though is this whole Slate and this might be kind 504 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 4: of a minutia, taker BUT i was very surprised AND 505 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 4: i think it's kind of indicative of where the league, 506 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 4: is and this is not really a great. Sign none 507 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 4: of these matchups are cross. Conference if you, Notice Opening 508 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 4: night is All Western conference. Teams Christmas day. Calvs nicks 509 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 4: Both East coast teams to open to open it, up 510 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 4: everybody else is A Western conference. 511 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 3: Team eighteen for The. West that's, Fine. 512 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 4: AND i know that we The west is going to 513 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 4: be a monster this, year AND i think it's gonna 514 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 4: be the same as last, year where the gap between 515 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 4: like two and ten might be four, games, Right, like 516 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 4: it's gonna be that. Compact it's gonna be if your 517 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 4: guy sprains an angle at the wrong, time it could 518 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 4: be the difference between home court and the Playing but 519 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 4: it's just it's really disappointing as a sports fan BECAUSE 520 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 4: i feel like what Made christmas games especially special was 521 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 4: the finals rematch or bad blood between The lakers and The, 522 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 4: celtics or you, know we got those Great Stephan LEBRON 523 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 4: i think for like five straight. Years you, know that 524 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,160 Speaker 4: kind of stuff is what brings in the casual. Fan 525 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 4: it's not always seeing the Same Steph lebron, matchup which 526 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 4: you know we're gonna, watch of, course because they're two biggest. 527 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 4: Stars but that's part of the problem THE nba has 528 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 4: is they've been leaning On Steph lebron kd for about 529 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 4: fifteen years, now and they haven't done a great job 530 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 4: at all of creating the new, rivalry creating the new star. 531 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 4: Player AND i think that that's SOMETHING i wish they 532 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 4: would have been more cognitant of when they put this schedule. 533 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 2: Out. 534 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, no that's a fair. Point but here's my. Thing you're. 535 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 2: You're acting like THE nba can create stars like by 536 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 2: putting them ON. Tv and my only pushback on that 537 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 2: IS i JUST i don't think it's that. EASY i 538 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 2: think the star has to have certain, qualities Like Steph 539 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 2: curry career. Underdog lebron went to the dark, side And 540 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 2: i'm taking my.
