Uh, and I've known 43 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: since he was a young kid. 44 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 4: Uh. 45 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: He had been in an OH for thirty nine slump. 46 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: This is the longest slump for a non pitcher in Dodgers' 47 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: history in one hundred and fourteen years. Wow, one hundred 48 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: and fourteen years goes back to Brooklyn. This goes like 49 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: when they were the trolley Dodgers. I mean, they weren't 50 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: even the Dodgers, like, you know whatever. They were the 51 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: bride's grooms. They were wearing knickerbockers and they were and 52 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: they were they were saying things like, hey, check out 53 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: this fine dame. She's a real peach. So today, somehow 54 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts continue to put him in the line. And 55 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: even though his batting average was at one eight eight. 56 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes your best decision is a bad decision. But guess 57 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: what he got a base ith Yeah, come on, tray, 58 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: So he ended his oh for thirty nine slump. And 59 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: unfortunately Dodgers. By the way, I get in the car, 60 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, eight o'clock in the morning and 61 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: they're already playing Oh yeah, yeah, I mean, this is 62 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: an early game on the road against the Ray. By 63 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,839 Speaker 1: the way, that game's in the fourth inning and it's 64 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 1: ten to seven. So apparently no one gave the pitchers 65 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: a wake up call in that game. 66 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 2: So it's batting practice down. 67 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: In Tampa, all right, Well, Richie, we got a lot 68 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: of ground to cover, but we got to get to 69 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: last night. So I don't know if you were watching 70 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: the game live. I was watching the game live. I 71 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: was sort of I sort of had in the background 72 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: because the Celtics were leading this game for odd and 73 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: it really did appear that they were all on their 74 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: way to Game seven. 75 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler could not make anything. 76 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: I mean he you know, Jimmy does a lot of 77 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: things for that Heat team. Obviously, you know, he had 78 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: the assists of the rebounds, but he at one point he 79 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: was two for sixteen shooting. Yep. It got so bad 80 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: that in the fourth quarter you could see he just 81 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: he had no confidence, like he's not going to shoot. 82 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: Fortunately for him, some of his teammates started making some 83 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: shots down the stretch, and then Jimmy Butler stepped up 84 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: hit a three, and the next thing you know, he 85 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: makes three free throws with three seconds left to give 86 00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: him the lead. And he do everything. I'm out fully 87 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: engaged in this game. I'm watching the inbound They prevent 88 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: Jason Tatum for having any chance to get the ball. 89 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: They throw the ball into Marcus Smart, who, by the way, 90 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: it had a good offensive game, he gets a turnaround 91 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: shot that was in and out and then out of nowhere, 92 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: Derek White comes in and tips it in and the 93 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: light goes off, and my in live time, I'm like, 94 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: that's late. 95 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: That was way out. It definitely by the way. 96 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 3: It didn't look It didn't look good at first either, 97 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 3: but somehow it goes in. 98 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: What a heads up play by Derek Well. 99 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: Here's what's amazing about this play because again in real time, 100 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: it looked like he tipped in way after the light 101 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: went on, right. Yeah. Then they show the replay and 102 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: this is what blows me away about a split second 103 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: decision that's literally life or death in terms of their 104 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: existence in the playoffs. White actually the one that threw 105 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: the inbound pass and he goes to the basket and 106 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: as Eric Spolser, the Heat coach, said, you understand that 107 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: the only way they can win that game is that 108 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: the ball bounce is exactly. 109 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: Where it was. 110 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: But your instinct, as Derek White is coming up to 111 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,559 Speaker 1: get the rebound, would be to grab the ball, hold 112 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: it and then you know, laid in. He didn't have 113 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: time for that. He sort of did like a a 114 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: two hand set like in volleyball. Yeah, so he started 115 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: like this. Yeah, he never tips touched it exactly long 116 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: enough so that he could get enough on it to 117 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: get it to the backboard and d and at the 118 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: same time avoid the shot clock violation, which or I 119 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: should say the clock, which I mean. It was mind blowing. 120 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: I mean, but this is how would you have the mindset, 121 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: because again, if you see the ball, your instinct would 122 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: be to grab it and then try to you know, 123 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: put it in. He just sort of did the the 124 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: two hand volleyball set to knock it in. This is 125 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: this is situational basketball. These are obviously professional players. They 126 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: should be only thinking about, like, all right, what are 127 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 1: the situations I need to practice in case? You know, 128 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: so everybody does the standard one where you're dribbling in 129 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: your driveway and you're counting down the clock out loud. 130 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: I did that when I was gilled everything sure, five four, 131 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: three two, and Ord Burger hits the shot game seven 132 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: over finals. 133 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 3: It's like everybody's practiced that one. But situational basketball in 134 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 3: this situation, an inbound, an opportunity for a tip back 135 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 3: put back to win an elimination game, Like this is 136 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 3: why you practice those things I remember when I was 137 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 3: playing for the Patriots, we would practice some of the 138 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 3: most rudimentary and boring special teams moments, or we would 139 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 3: practice some of the things that almost never come up, 140 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 3: but we would take Like Belichick, he would rep these 141 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 3: things with the same urgency, with the same like like 142 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 3: dire need to have this accomplished and have it be perfect. 143 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 3: And if it isn't, or if people are talking, or 144 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 3: if people are distracted, he would refocused the group by 145 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 3: blowing the whistle, yelling at people, whatever he took to 146 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 3: make sure people are locked in for those situational plays 147 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 3: that are either routine or completely aberrant from the normal 148 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 3: path of gameplay. That's what this is. It's situational basketball. 149 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 3: It's best and Derek White had the tools, he had 150 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 3: his mind on the clock, he understood the situation, and 151 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: that's the reason why they survived to Game seven. 152 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: Unbelievable. I loved Eric Spolstra postgame because what's he gonna say. 153 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 2: We did what we set out to do. 154 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: We wanted to prevent Jason Tatum from getting the shot, yep, 155 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: and they did that effectively and again, so hot. If 156 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: it bounces anywhere anywhere else on the way anywhere, and 157 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: it's right left wherever anywhere other than where atlanted. Boston's 158 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: been eliminating the heater onto the NBA Finals. Now, I 159 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: was listening to the guys after where it's speaking of 160 00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Ernie and the Jen and Charles and Shack, and i'st 161 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: the Charles who apparently bet on Boston or bet against Boston. 162 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: By the way, the line on that game was two 163 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: and a half. The Celtics are favored in that game, 164 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: and because they only won by one, they didn't cover. 165 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: But anyway, Charles said what I was thinking immediately. 166 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: So all the pressure was. 167 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: On Miami in this game, like it was on them 168 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: to wrap up this series at home. This is the 169 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty first team, this being the Celtics 170 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: that has gotten down three to oh it's only the 171 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: fourth time that's been a Game seven, but this is 172 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: the first time that anyone's had that Game seven on 173 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: their home court. The other three teams that came down 174 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: from three to zero had Game seven on the road, 175 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: and they all launched. By the way, makes sense because 176 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 1: while we're watching this series, you kind of lose track 177 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 1: of who's who's the higher seed, right, and you kind 178 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 1: of lose track of the fact that the heat they 179 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 1: kind of snuck into this whole situation on the first 180 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: think about this riche if the Celtics do prevail, and 181 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: by the way, the Celtics, you know, just sorry to 182 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: interrupt you, but the Celtics, on the other side of 183 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: that coin, were one of the best, if not the best, 184 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: regular season team this year. I said before the playoffs, 185 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: they were the best team when you think about too 186 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: all NBA players, Derek White was all defense, Marcus Mark 187 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: was the reigning defensive Player of the Year, Brockdon was 188 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: six Man of the Year. But if Boston does prevail, 189 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: you have a finals between the one seed in the 190 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: West and the two seed in the East, who most 191 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: people thought was a better team than the one seed 192 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: Milwaukee anyway, So with all the noise and craziness of 193 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: the playoffs, essentially you would end up with the two 194 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: best teams out of their respective conferences. 195 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 3: What a winding road it took us to get here, though, 196 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 3: And I'll give credit where credit's due. For years now, 197 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 3: I've said I don't really like the playing I don't 198 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 3: really I don't like the idea that ten teams in 199 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 3: each conference more than two thirds of your league has 200 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: access to the playoffs. It just doesn't make sense to me. 201 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 3: It almost hurts my ears to think of that. But 202 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 3: look at what's happened, Like, we've gotten this opportunity to 203 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 3: see this Eastern Conference Final as a result of the plane. 204 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 3: If it weren't for that, we wouldn't be here right now. 205 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 3: So there there's an argument now that needs to be made. 206 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 3: You know, it has my attention. I'm I'm liking it 207 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 3: obviously a lot more as a result of these outcomes. 208 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: All right, So what should we expect in a Game seven? 209 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: We'll carry that a little bit later on the show. 210 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: Coming up, we're gonna get into some MLB and the 211 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: NHL playoffs.

Is that possible? 242 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 7: I mean I said of a text, I just said, 243 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 7: how's it going over there, Old chap so wow. 244 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: Pit Upgerio and all that? All right? Tea time, my 245 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: only time in London was exactly fifty years ago, nineteen 246 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: seventy three. I was fifteen years old. 247 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: My only time in London was when the Patriots played 248 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: the Buccaneers. 249 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 2: Do you have time to actually see any of the city. 250 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 3: We got on a double decker, I did the bus 251 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 3: tour and took pictures of Big Ben Selfie's Buckingham Palace. 252 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 3: I went over there and yelled at the guards. I 253 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 3: did all the time. 254 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: Did you go on the tube? I did it. 255 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 3: I never got on the tube, no, no, But I 256 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: will say this, because they don't play American football in London. 257 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 3: We practiced at on a cricket pitch. Yeah, so we 258 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 3: were in that big circular stadium. It was bizarre. But 259 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 3: you know, well you may not know this. The guest 260 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 3: that we have on right now, we know him for baseball, 261 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: we know him for hockey, but apparently cricket is also 262 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 3: an in this curriculum. 263 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: We're talking about our Fox Sports Radio MLB insider John 264 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: Paul Morosi is Johnny us right now, and JP, I 265 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: would imagine, with all your love of baseball that cricket 266 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: somehow's crossed pass to you at some point. 267 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 8: Well, good afternoon, good morning to those of you on 268 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 8: the West Coast, I have actually never witnessed a cricket 269 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 8: game before cricket match before there was, of course the 270 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 8: MLB Series in Australia, which took place at the famed 271 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 8: Sydney Cricket Ground, so we have seen baseball played at 272 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 8: a cricket ground. I am a noted supporter of soccer 273 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 8: though as well or as they would call it in 274 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 8: England football. I was actually at Stamford Bridge for a 275 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 8: Chelsea match just last month. Loved it, great experience. I 276 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 8: am in Germany a supporter of Marussia Dortmund, so yesterday's 277 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 8: conclusion in the Bundesliga was rather heartbreaking for me because 278 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 8: I've got some family in the vest Fallen area there 279 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 8: in the western part of Germany. So to my fellow 280 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 8: Schwaslin Gelvin supporters, it was a tough day. But we 281 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 8: will We will be back next. 282 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: Season, all right. So JP Rich and I obviously opened 283 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: today talking about that incredible finish to the Heat Celtics 284 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: game force in a Game seven, as the Celtics try 285 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: to become the first team in NBA history to overcome 286 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: a three to zero deficit and win a series. It's 287 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: happened four times in the NHL. I was eyewitnessed to 288 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: one of these back in twenty fourteen with the La Kings. 289 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: In fact, I was covering game four of their opening 290 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: round series against the Sharks. A long story short, we 291 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: had a breakdown. On another live appearance, I was asked 292 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: to stretch a little bit with my report. The Kings 293 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: had won the game, and pretty much the story was well, 294 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: at least they didn't get eliminated on their home ice, 295 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: so we'll go back to San Jose. And they kept saying, stretch, stretch, 296 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: and I said, I'll tell you what if somehow some 297 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: then go back and win Game five in San Jose, 298 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 1: not only will they win this series, they'll win the 299 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: Stanley Cup. Wow. 300 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 2: So I said this out of jest at best. 301 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: But as they continue their run all the way to 302 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: the sale than keV Ree played our Steve Hartman was 303 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: the only one that predicted this. 304 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: I'm like, no, I didn't really predict this, but I'll 305 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: take it. 306 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: But we got a possibility of this with obviously the 307 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: Stars going on the road and winning in Vegas. So 308 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: what are the Stars chances of foreseeing a Game seven 309 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: down three to zero in this Western Conference Final? 310 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 8: Well, I like their chances because as much as to 311 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 8: your point, you look at the full sweep of the 312 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 8: series from from Game one onward and say it'd be 313 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 8: a rally from three to zero down, But now is 314 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 8: this a rally from three to two down? And I 315 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 8: look at the way the Stars are playing. It's been 316 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 8: a competitive series in the very beginning. It wasn't as 317 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 8: though they were getting blown out early on in the series, 318 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 8: and now you're seeing the mix of familiar names like 319 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 8: Joe Pavelski being a hero for them sertly in Game 320 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 8: four and then Tyed Landria first two goal game of 321 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 8: his NHL career comes in Game five of the Western 322 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 8: Conference Finals. So I love it. It's great for the 323 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 8: sport that we're still talking about this series. Obviously there 324 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 8: was a chance that would have been two sweeps to 325 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 8: the conference final, which is never fun. And just as 326 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 8: a fan a neutral observer, I think it's great this 327 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 8: series goes to a sixth game, and because the series 328 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 8: deserves it. It's a very very competitive series, two teams 329 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 8: that I think are very evenly matched. Vegas might have 330 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 8: a little bit more sheer talent, and yet Hayes kidding 331 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 8: is an elite defender for Dallas. Hints is a really 332 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 8: outstanding forward as well. Pavelski is a hert and soul guy. 333 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 8: I think he's a Hall of Famer for me. And 334 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 8: now you're seeing I think this next group come in 335 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 8: with the Stars. And they also get Jamie ben back 336 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 8: for Game six after the two games suspension. So a 337 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 8: lot to like with the way the Stars are playing. 338 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 8: They're now on whole ice. I think a very good 339 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 8: chance we see a seventh game in this series. 340 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: Hey, JP. 341 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 3: Turning our attention to the Major League Baseball season here, 342 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: we are now many games in most teams played just 343 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 3: about fifty games or so, maybe more than that actually, 344 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 3: now that I'm thinking about it, when when you're thinking 345 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 3: about the young players, you know, everybody's familiar with, you know, 346 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 3: an Aaron Judge at this point, or a Manny Machado, 347 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 3: guys who have been around the game for a while, 348 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 3: nearing or over thirty years of age, but rookies or 349 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 3: second year players who are starting to pop. What are 350 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 3: some of the names of the young guys starting to 351 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 3: make their names known in this league? Now that we 352 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 3: have a little bit larger of a sample size here 353 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty three. 354 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 8: Sure, it's a great it's a great question. Well, one 355 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 8: name I'm going to go with that maybe is not 356 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 8: getting the attention he deserves. Aravo Perdomo of the Arizona Diamondbacks, 357 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 8: a team that I think is playing better and better. 358 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 8: You look at his numbers, he has an ops up 359 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 8: above nine hundred. He is a switch hitting shortstop, which 360 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 8: is a very very rare player profile to begin with, 361 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 8: and is one of the big energy drivers of the 362 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 8: Arizona Diamondbacks. So to all the fans out there who 363 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 8: are looking for that under the radar guy to pick 364 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 8: for their fantasy team or someone who maybe that they 365 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,479 Speaker 8: want to become a fan of Coronto, Perdobo is I 366 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 8: think one of the bright young stars of the game 367 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 8: and rich. He also has one of the very best 368 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 8: nicknames in professional baseball. I must ask you this question, now, 369 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 8: do you do you watch Ted Lasso? 370 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 2: No, I haven't watched it yet. 371 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 8: So you're the one guy, the mad guy in the whole, 372 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 8: in all of North America who's not yet watched the 373 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 8: show at any rate. At any rate, you're that guy. 374 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 8: So Horono Perdomo has one of the great nicknames in baseball. 375 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 8: Which is Sam Sam because he has the same positivity, geniality, 376 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 8: He's the He's the heart and soul of the team. 377 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 8: In the way Thatsbisanya as the hard and soul of 378 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 8: AFC Richmond and Ted Lasso. So if you have not 379 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 8: yet watched the Diamondbacks this year, watch Feraldo Perdomo. And 380 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 8: if you have not yet watched Ted Lasso, It's okay. 381 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 8: We can still be friends. I'm willing to grant you 382 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 8: this grace as a great friend, and I would suggest 383 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 8: you watch that. It is, of course, the second best 384 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 8: reason to subscribe to Apple TV, after of course, Friday 385 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,719 Speaker 8: Night Baseball, which is there every weekend. Talk about that. 386 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: There you go, there's a feel good story in baseball today. 387 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: This is near and dear to me personally, JP. I've 388 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: known Trace Thompson since he was thirteen years old. Wow. 389 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: His father and I were working together, obviously in radio 390 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: for many years. But the very first year we worked together, 391 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: were in Detroit for the NBA Finals, and he flew 392 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: out his two youngest sons, Trace who was thirteen, Clay 393 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 1: was fourteen. The idea, We're going to take the boys 394 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: to a Tigers game. Michael bailed on his own sons. 395 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,959 Speaker 1: He asked me to take him to the game, and 396 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: so I've known Trace forever. He had a brief run 397 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 1: with the Padres a year ago, then got picked up 398 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 1: by the Dodgers, had a nice run, and then started 399 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: this season with literally the greatest opening game for any 400 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 1: player in the Major League history, three home runs and 401 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: eight RBIs. 402 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 2: Since then, it's been a nightmare. 403 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: He was on an OH for thirty ninth streak, longest 404 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: for a non pitcher in Dodgers' history in one hundred 405 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: and fourteen years, closing in on that infamous OH for 406 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: fifty four run of Chris Davis or the Orioles. And 407 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: today in Tampa he's three for three with a home run. 408 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 8: What is that say? 409 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, what does it say about Dave Roberts 410 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: as a manager, Because he says he likes his work ethic, 411 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: he likes a lot of things. But bottom line is, 412 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: you got to do something. Not only was he over 413 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: thirty nine, he was striking out more than half the time, 414 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: but what does that say about I don't know, maybe 415 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: just the nature of the game that allows someone like that, 416 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: you know, who's well into his you know, maybe just 417 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: it's over for him and getting that opportunity and finally 418 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: today breaking out of it. 419 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 8: I think a special day for the Thompson family. Obviously, 420 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 8: it's the early morning game. And by the way, Steve, 421 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 8: just for those that aren't aren't aware of the full 422 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 8: score line. At the moment, it's ten ten midway through, 423 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 8: midway through, I guess to use Rich's terminology, midway through 424 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 8: the third quarter right now, a ten ten score. 425 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: Well, by the way, Josh Fleming is still pitching for 426 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 1: the he started this game. He's giving up twelve hits, 427 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: ten runs, and he's still in the game. 428 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 8: Yeah, there's a whole lot. We could probably do the 429 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 8: entire show about this game alone, a ten tenth game between, 430 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 8: by the way, two teams that we could expect to 431 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 8: meet in the World Series this year, depending on how 432 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 8: things play out. Of course, they just played in the 433 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 8: World Series three years ago. But to your point, Dave Roberts, 434 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 8: to me is one of the great managers in baseball 435 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 8: and one of the great people in baseball. I'll tell 436 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 8: you a quick story. We were in We were in 437 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 8: Saint Louis two weeks ago, and we had a game 438 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 8: in Saint Louis. Dodgers Cardinals. We had a pre scheduled 439 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 8: interview with Dave Roberts for me after the third inning, 440 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 8: and and that was right after Julio Rias had given 441 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 8: up four home runs in that inning. And so we've 442 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 8: got this previously scheduled interview. And I said to myself, 443 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,479 Speaker 8: you know, it's you don't want to put a manager 444 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 8: in a tough spot as pitcher's just given up for homers. 445 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 8: What do we do? And I got to my place 446 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 8: and Dave took a moment to speak to the coaching 447 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 8: staff and he came right up the steps, was standing 448 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 8: right next to me. I said, he still want to go? 449 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 8: He said, yeah, I'm all set, and then he gave 450 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 8: me a great answer about what he thought was going 451 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 8: on with Rias. That is class personified. It's about how 452 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 8: you act when adversity hits. And when you know if 453 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 8: he had, if he had gracefully bowed out, no one 454 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 8: would have known about It wouldn't have been a big deal. 455 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 8: I would have totally understood. But he still did of 456 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 8: the interview, and that's in those moments, character is revealed. 457 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 8: And you want to know why Trace Thompson and Mookie 458 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 8: Betts and Freddie Freeman and Trey Turner in the past 459 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 8: who found the Dodgers. All these superstars love playing for 460 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 8: Dave Roberts, wyklink Kershaw respects in the way he does. 461 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 8: That's just one glimpse into the measure of the man. 462 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: JP. 463 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 3: Always awesome chatting with you, especially on a Sunday.

This baseball game got intense. Chris Taylor 540 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 9: has homer twice in this game to tie the game 541 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 9: for the Dodgers, who are playing against the best team 542 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 9: in baseball, the Rays. They're about to start the top 543 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 9: of the seventh inning tied at ten apiece in Tampa Bay. 544 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 10: I'm surprised. 545 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 9: I feel like as a Dodger fan, bo, don't you 546 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 9: think this must be hard for the Dodgers to play 547 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 9: this early. I feel like they're not used to this. 548 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 9: I'm not used to this. I can't buy of the 549 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 9: Dodgers are. 550 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: Playing seriously, I had no idea. 551 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I left my house before the fourth inning. 552 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: I left about eight thirty this morning, and then I 553 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: turn on the Dodger station, which is where our show 554 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: is normally carried. I and there was a home run 555 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: by Max Munsey, and I thought it was a highlight 556 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: from a previous game, because there's no way the game 557 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: is on this early. And I realized this is live. 558 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: It was already the second inning. Right by the way, 559 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: the way they're going, this game is going to go forever. Yeah, 560 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 1: this is this is very cruel in Los Angeles. 561 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 3: If you took the over on the run total, I'm 562 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 3: guessing your hit already right right right right, he runs 563 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 3: scored so far. 564 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 9: Yes, the ND five hundred is also happening right now, 565 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 9: and the lead keep switching back and forth, back and forth. 566 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 9: Right now, it's Colton hurt up. I'm gonna guess is 567 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 9: how he says it. But will Power was just in 568 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 9: the lead after sixty nine laps of two hundred. 569 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 10: So the Indy five hundred under way. Obviously the big game. 570 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 9: Which you guys were talking about last night, Game six 571 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 9: heat Celtics. I'm so annoyed by it. But this is 572 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 9: what Jimmy Butler had to say. Because Jimmy Butler was 573 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 9: five of twenty one. 574 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 10: He was not great. 575 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 4: Like I told the guys on the bench, I told 576 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 4: the guys in the locker room that if I play better, 577 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 4: we're not even in his position, honestly speaking, and I 578 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 4: will be better. And that's what makes me smile because 579 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 4: those guys follow my lead. So when I'm playing better, 580 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 4: I think we're playing better as a whole. 581 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 10: And I think he can do it. Guys, Yimmy is Yumi. 582 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 10: He is him back to you, all. 583 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: Right, all right, gosh when she does that very personal. 584 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: I am getting a lot of people.

So a lot of our listeners 591 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: are well aware that I am a life time Lakers fan, 592 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: and they're saying, wow, I mean Hartman's hurting right now, 593 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: Dejected that the Celtics. The hated Celtics are still alive 594 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. By the way, if the Celtics were 595 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: to win tomorrow Game seven, I blame one person, and 596 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: one person alone. Who's that Irvin Magic Johnson? What did 597 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: he do well? After Game three, he put out that 598 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: tweet that says, I've been associated with this league for 599 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: forty four years, and I never thought that I would 600 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: see a franchise like the Celtics, winners of seventeen NBA 601 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: champion ships quit on a court. Oh boy, So he 602 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: calls out the Celtics and put out the all time 603 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: four letter word in sports, quit And obviously they've rattled 604 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: up three straight wins since he said they quit. 605 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 2: And my guess is this because you. 606 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: Know in baseball it's only happened once where teams down 607 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: three to zero and comes back to win a series. 608 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: That was the Red Sox back in two thousand and four, 609 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: down three to zero to the Yankees. They come back, 610 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: win four in a row and then sweep the World Series. 611 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: So after, by the way, their first World Series win 612 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: in eighty six years, and that would be my fear, 613 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: as someone that is not a big fan of the Celtics, 614 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: is if they win tomorrow, they're gonna steamroll through the 615 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: Nuggets and claim what would be because they're tied right 616 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: now with the Lakers seventeen championships apiece to win number eighteen. 617 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: Thank you, Irvin Magic Johnson for came the bear. 618 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 3: I I also have an update on a bitter rivalry 619 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 3: related to the NBA postseason here at Fox Sports Radio. 620 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 3: So I said something that may have triggered something h 621 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 3: weeks ago.

He had to take a little breath. 695 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 11: When I got here, I saw there was sushi on 696 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 11: the counter, and I was like, well, that's that's weird 697 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 11: because certainly nobody's having sushi for breakfast. 698 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 8: You were. 699 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 1: And guess what if you don't know Rich as well 700 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: as you think you do, you're gonna learn a lot more. 701 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: Buckle up, buddy, it's gonna get real weird, real fast. 702 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna get ready for a game seven 703 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: tomorrow on the Eastern Conference Finals. Where's the pressure in 704 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: this game? It's a game seven? Right, well, very much 705 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 1: on one side. We'll tell you about it. This it's 706 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin and Rich Hornberger Fox Sports Sunday. 707 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: We are live from the Tyraq dot Com studios. So 708 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: Game seven will be tomorrow between the Celtics and the Heat, 709 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: And I mean you talk about pressure on the Celtics, 710 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 1: now imagine you overcoming a three to zero deficit and 711 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: losing on your home court. I mean, that would almost 712 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 1: be more devastating than having been swept out of the series, 713 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: if you think about it. 714 00:35:59,080 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 2: I don't know it was. 715 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: It was weird at the end of this game yesterday 716 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 1: because the Celtics seem only we're in control. Like you're 717 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: watching these two teams, especially when Jimmy Butler is having 718 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:12,240 Speaker 1: an off shooting night and you're trying to even figure 719 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: out how is it that the Heat got up three 720 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: to zero in this series? It's clear the Celtics have 721 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: just a better team. Celtics win yesterday with their worst 722 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: three point shooting performance of the year, seven to thirty five. 723 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: They were twenty percent worse than any game they had 724 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: all year. So all kinds of were quirky things in 725 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: this series. So I'm going into this final game. Obviously 726 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: no one is betting on the Heat, but I wouldn't 727 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: bet against the Heat in this game because I don't 728 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:49,360 Speaker 1: know how well this Celtic team handles pressure, as talented 729 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: as they are, with everyone expecting them. 730 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 2: To win on their home court. 731 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: Well, I got a weird feeling about this game tomorrow, get. 732 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 3: It, and I understand it. But they just faced elimination 733 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: three times straight. One of those games, most recently Game five, 734 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 3: played on their home court, and they won that. 735 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,839 Speaker 1: Look the Celtics to me, by the way, they're now 736 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: five to zero elimination games. Can remember they had to 737 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: win the last two games against the Sixers, one on 738 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 1: the row, one at home to win that series. 739 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 3: And again, it benefits them to be such a high 740 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 3: seed here because you get to finish out the series, 741 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 3: should it I've gotten which it has to a Game 742 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 3: seven at home. It's it's an unbelievable story if they 743 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 3: can complete it. And I said this actually about the 744 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 3: city of Boston on my local radio show this week 745 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 3: when I was playing for the Patriots and the Bruins 746 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 3: are going and the Red Sox are going, and you 747 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 3: know this, the years I played there was from nine 748 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 3: through two thousand and eleven. That Super Bowl run we 749 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 3: went on. It's crazy. That city when they're supporting an underdog, 750 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 3: is amazing. And for some reason, somehow Bill Belichick convinced 751 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 3: our team and the city that the Patriots were underdogs 752 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 3: at all times. 753 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: It just we weren't. I mean, we were one. 754 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 3: Of the best cultures in place. We had some of 755 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 3: the best players in place. It didn't matter. 756 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: There was this belief that there was a chip on 757 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: our shoulder. 758 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 3: It was us against the world the whole time. The 759 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 3: Boston Red Sox had that going in the early two thousands. 760 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 3: The Boston Celtics back then with Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, How. 761 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 1: Are they an underdog? At no point has anyone ever 762 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 1: thought of the Celtics as an underdog. But there's a 763 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: weird thing that happens in that city. They buy, they 764 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: buy else believe that. No, no, I'm telling you, it's 765 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: only there. It's only there. The fan base buys it, 766 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: the players buy it. And don't get me wrong, the 767 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: Celtics getting down three to zero in this series helps 768 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: feed that storyline. But there's something about that city where 769 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: it's like it's us against the world and have that 770 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,240 Speaker 1: level of I mean, I don't know, if you watched 771 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: Game five at the Garden, Oh yeah, that was outrageous. 772 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: The commentators couldn't even speak. It is going to be 773 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: definitely loud for the heat on in Boston. Coming up, 774 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: the Heat go in. This is gonna say possible environment 775 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 1: from Miami. Okay, again, you could say, well, the Heat 776 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: have everything to lose to go down in history as 777 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: the first team to blow a three to zero serious 778 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: lead eight seed. They were an eight seed that lost 779 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,919 Speaker 1: a playing game. Nobody on the planet thought they could 780 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: get to Game seven of the Eastern Conference Finals in Boston. 781 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: I don't think they have any pressure on them at all. 782 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: All the pressure is on the Celtics. If the Celtics 783 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: lose this game on their home court after coming back 784 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 1: from three to zero, that's devastating. Oh, I get it. Look, 785 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: and this is a team again in the regular season 786 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 1: who won nearly crucified percent of their games. They won 787 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 1: sixty nine was it seventy? No, they won sixty nine 788 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: games this regular season, Like, this is a Greatltics team. 789 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 2: They didn't win sixty nine. 790 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, fifty nine, Yeah, sixty nine would have been all. Oh, well, 791 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: well seventy three is the record? Yeah, yeah, I guess 792 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 1: I'm including postseason. I don't know how many. Well, well 793 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: it was fifty something. Either way, this is this is great. 794 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: This is the best basketball team in the league. If 795 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: it's going by their personnel. There's enough. 796 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 2: What am I smelling right now? 797 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 12: Oh? 798 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 1: I know what yell? You're a Celtic hater Hartman. Okay, 799 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: I am, but I don't know under more pressure, Spolster. 800 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: It was very glib after that devastating loss lastre and 801 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: oh and you give away the series that you could 802 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,879 Speaker 1: lose jobs over that? All right, losing jobs? How about 803 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 1: in the NFL? We got NFL news coming up on 804 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday, Yes, rolling along and another big Sunday 805 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: of sports.

You know, it's unfortunate that 824 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 3: that's what it is, but the more talented team normally wins, 825 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 3: whether it be in baseball or in basketball, and so 826 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 3: that's the reason why I haven't been a fan of 827 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 3: series overall. However, I will say this. You know, when 828 00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 3: you do have this type of series where it's gone 829 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 3: down one side, or it's been even the whole way, 830 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 3: giving up leads in the series, whatever it could be, 831 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 3: when you reach a game seven and you have two 832 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 3: teams that seem to have developed a bitter hatred for 833 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 3: each other down the stretch. I mean of respect, but truly, 834 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 3: like I think, either way you slice it, both teams 835 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 3: are tired of seeing each other. 836 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:23,280 Speaker 1: I can't wait. 837 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 3: You're absolutely right, there's no better words in sport than 838 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 3: game seven. But you can get there in a you know, 839 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,359 Speaker 3: quick fest, in a hurry if you just play one game, 840 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,479 Speaker 3: because then your fall games. 841 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, Game one and done, which is why we do 842 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 1: love that nca basketball tournament. I want to get to 843 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: some NFL news and biggest story obviously this week was 844 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals decision to release de Andrea Hopkins, but 845 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: that was only half the story. The fact was is 846 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: that they could have done it after June first and 847 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: split up the salary cap hit over a couple of years. 848 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: By releasing and before June first, they're taking a full 849 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: twenty two million dollar hit this season. So the question is, 850 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 1: why would the Arizona Cardinals do this for any reason 851 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: other than tanky the go I mean, we don't like 852 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,360 Speaker 1: to use that for what letter word tank right? We 853 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 1: know it goes on. But because of the uncertainty of 854 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's injury situation, it appears that Cardinals have made 855 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: a calculated decision that they are gonna throw away the 856 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three season in hopes of riches down the road. 857 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: Now giving the Cardinals credit for anything, the franchise that 858 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 1: has not won an NFL championship since Erry Truman was 859 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:45,760 Speaker 1: president nineteen forty seven, to be exact, it seems beyond 860 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: scope that they would make a wise move, but I mean, 861 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 1: this seems so blatant. I'm amazed that the league hasn't 862 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 1: sort of jumped in and said, what's going on. 863 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 3: And what are you doing here exactly? Because this isn't 864 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 3: even one those situations where you can kind of justify 865 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 3: what they've done. And I'm so glad that your focus 866 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 3: is on the Cardinals because, don't get me wrong, I 867 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 3: understand the interest and is what does DeAndre Hopkins do next? 868 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 3: What teams are interested, who's contacting him? And I'm sure 869 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 3: those source reports will be coming out very shortly here 870 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,080 Speaker 3: as to who he's been in contact with. However, I 871 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 3: think the story is all about the Cardinals, and this 872 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 3: is the tweet I put out yesterday. I know the 873 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 3: question is where's Hopkins going, But the question should be 874 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 3: which QB are the Cardinals drafting next year? Because to me, 875 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 3: what this signifies is they've given up on Kyler Murray. 876 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 3: They have completely one hundred percent have said to themselves internally, 877 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 3: it's over. We've gotten the best we possibly could out 878 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 3: of him. It was a mistake signing him. K is gone, 879 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,919 Speaker 3: Kingsbury's gone. Steve Kim is now a broadcaster on Fox 880 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 3: Sports Radio. Okay, so that's where the Cardinals are at. 881 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,799 Speaker 3: Is the next head to roll is Kyler Murray's And look, 882 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 3: I mean, the guy's recovering from a major knee injury 883 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 3: we saw at the end of last season, and I 884 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 3: wish him the best in terms of his health. And 885 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 3: he's already won, He's got the huge contract. But this 886 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 3: player has lost control of the narrative. It used to 887 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 3: be Kyler is one of the youngest, brightest stars in 888 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 3: the NFL, and it has transferred into this guy doesn't 889 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 3: love the game. This guy doesn't study enough, this guy 890 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 3: can't hack it in clutch time. This guy will lose 891 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 3: games for you down the stretch of a season. Him 892 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 3: and Kingsbury, the combination yielded nothing, netted nothing. So it's 893 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 3: time to move on. And that's exactly what this signifies. Now, 894 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 3: don't get me wrong. I mean, maybe somebody else or 895 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 3: if there was more stability in the front office, maybe 896 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 3: there would be a little bit more of a unity 897 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 3: here with Kyler. 898 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 1: Get it done. 899 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 3: I think they're pulling the plug on this whole thing. 900 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 3: They're blowing the whole thing up. So yeah, the more 901 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 3: fascinating side of this storyline is the Arizona Cardinals have 902 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 3: gone into complete tank mode. 903 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: It appears, by the way, something I've not read about. 904 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 1: But I was just thinking about this with Kyler Murray. 905 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 1: Let's not forget this guy was a top ten pick 906 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 1: in the baseball draft. Oh yeah, top ten. So if 907 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: you have a knee injury like this, which would obviously 908 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 1: limit the kind of skill set that made him such 909 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 1: a great quarterback, can't do the running in scrambling that 910 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 1: was part of his game, why not just hang it up. 911 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you've already made hundreds of millions. I mean, 912 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 1: how much money is this guy made already in the NFL. 913 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: I mean, you're set financially, But if you want to 914 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 1: continue your athletic career, how about taking a year off, 915 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: getting healthy and maybe getting. 916 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 2: Back into baseball. 917 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: I mean, we saw Michael Jordan try it, but Michael 918 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,839 Speaker 1: Jordan didn't have the baseball skill set that Kyler Murray had. Yeah, 919 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 1: I don't, because one thing about baseball. You got a 920 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 1: long life in baseball, much longer than you do playing 921 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 1: in the National Football League. He's still a young guy. 922 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: I would imagine he hasn't forgotten how to play the game. 923 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 3: You would be walking away from a substantial amount of money, 924 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 3: because remember, this guy just signed that contract. 925 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,760 Speaker 2: How much how much did he get up front? 926 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 8: And that? 927 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 3: Well, but that's the tricky thing about it. The signing 928 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 3: bonus was something like thirty million dollars. Right, However, if 929 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 3: you walk away from a contract, you'll owe some of 930 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:18,400 Speaker 3: that signing bonus back based on the percentage, based on 931 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 3: percentages and the amount of time you've already played. 932 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 2: All right, well, clarify for me. 933 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: All right, Let's say he gets healthy and the Cardinals 934 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 1: due to him what they did to d Hop they 935 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: cut him, just cut him. 936 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:33,320 Speaker 3: Well, he's he's guaranteed all the money that he's guaranteed, Okay, right, yeah, yeah. 937 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,760 Speaker 1: Now if there are certain roster bonuses and guarantee fully 938 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: guaranteed contract. No no, no, no no. 939 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 3: But he has a signing bonus, he'll keep that obviously, 940 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 3: keep whatever money he's earned on the contract already, which 941 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 3: is tens of millions of dollars. He won't walk away 942 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:52,879 Speaker 3: a poor man. But yeah, what you're saying is possibility. 943 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 1: I mean twenties, I mean, come on, but he could. 944 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:59,840 Speaker 3: Look, could he walk away from the game, Yeah, he could? 945 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 3: Will he most likely not? The problem though, and you 946 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 3: pointed it out was from the jump there was a 947 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,400 Speaker 3: plan B. It felt like from the jump there wasn't 948 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 3: an urgency that you see with other quarterbacks where this 949 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 3: is it, this is their lifeblood. Think about to a 950 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 3: tongue va Low there is no baseball, right. You know 951 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 3: that's a guy who, through two concussions, continued playing. It 952 00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:29,800 Speaker 3: was a severe situation, potentially life threatening. Potentially for Tua. 953 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 3: He still wants to play. 954 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,440 Speaker 1: Think about this. The team that drafted him was Oakland. 955 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:38,839 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, an Oakland team that is expected to. 956 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 2: Move to Vegas, Vegas. 957 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,760 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. I mean, and remember this, The only reason 958 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: he got a chance to play that year at Oklahoma 959 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 1: is that he basically begged the a's Look, I put 960 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 1: a couple of years as a backup two different schools, remember, 961 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,399 Speaker 1: and I'd like to play one year of football. Remember 962 00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: we were talking about this at the time, saying, well, 963 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 1: this is sort of cool. Maybe a little bit of 964 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:01,879 Speaker 1: a risk because obviously he's playing quarterback and he could 965 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: get hurt, but that's sort of cool of them to 966 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 1: allow him to at least get in one year of 967 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: college football as a starter, hands up winning in the Heisman, 968 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 1: to be in the number one pick in the draft. Yeah, 969 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. I look at to me, the 970 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 1: NFL needs to step in and do a full like 971 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,280 Speaker 1: what's going on here? I mean, this can't you can't 972 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 1: be this blatant in tanking a season now. 973 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 2: Again. 974 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 1: A year ago, I thought Seattle might be tanking when 975 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: they made the trade with Russell Wilson to Denver. And 976 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: I was completely wrong because they remember they were trying 977 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: to sell us on Drew Lock. Oh You're like, oh, yeah, sure, 978 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,399 Speaker 1: Drew Lock. They're going to be the number one pick 979 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 1: in the draft. They're going to get themselves Bryce Young 980 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 1: or c. J. Stroud. Instead, Gino Smith shows up and 981 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: has an insame year and they made the playoffs. 982 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 3: Well they wrote them off? You didn't right back? You 983 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,839 Speaker 3: remember that line after the win over the Broncos. I look, 984 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 3: the reality of the NFL is this happens to every team. 985 00:49:58,960 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: At some point. 986 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 3: You go through this trough of losing and you scrape 987 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 3: bottom and then you soar because there's no other there's 988 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 3: no other league, professional sports league in this country that 989 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 3: gives you the opportunity to draft a player or players 990 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 3: and within a year or two, all of a sudden 991 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 3: completely changed the fortunes of your friends with the Bengals, 992 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 3: perfect example. Look at the Jacksonville Jaguars. 993 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 1: How about the Colts when they drafted Andrew Luck after 994 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 1: having the worst reckon in the league the year that 995 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning was out, they bring in Luck immediately back 996 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,680 Speaker 1: in the playoff. Look at the Kansas City Chiefs Andy Reid. 997 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean they were good, well, no, the Kan's City Chiefs. 998 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 3: They scraped bottom with a three win or four win 999 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 3: season before Reid took over as head coach. And then 1000 00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 3: they traded in for Alex Smith from San Francisco, and 1001 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 3: people are like, well Alex and also ran in San Francisco. 1002 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 3: They win eleven games the next season. So it can 1003 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 3: happen overnight. It can be either be the draft, or 1004 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,440 Speaker 3: it could be a coaching change, a culture fix. It 1005 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 3: could be a lot of different things. And you can 1006 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:01,880 Speaker 3: have a season of season change that puts you in 1007 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,280 Speaker 3: the postseason, puts you in the dance, puts you on 1008 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 3: the chessboard where before you weren't even on the playing field. 1009 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 3: So look, the Cardinals may actually end up doing what's 1010 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 3: best for their franchise by divorcing themselves of a huge 1011 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 3: anchor contract, paying the dead cap by surviving the year 1012 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 3: with Kyler Murray trying to get the most out of it. 1013 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 3: And my guess would be, unless it's a phenomenal bounce 1014 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 3: back from this injury, probably trade Kyler if they can. 1015 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,800 Speaker 1: All right, later on, we're gonna run down the teams 1016 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 1: most likely to put their hat in the ring as 1017 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 1: far as de hop is concerned. But on the other side, 1018 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna get into what potentially is the biggest comeback 1019 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 1: story in sports this year. This is Fox Sports Sunday, 1020 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 1: Steve Hartman and er Rich Schornberger. Here we are once again, 1021 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: it is Fox Sports Sunday, and we are live from 1022 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 1: the tai iraq dot com studios. All right, we have 1023 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:03,320 Speaker 1: the very very interesting development with a team in the 1024 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:10,280 Speaker 1: National Football League, the Las Vegas Raiders, as of right 1025 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: now do not have a viable quarterback. So I remember 1026 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: they signed Jimmy Garoppolo. Yeah, and right after he signed 1027 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 1: he had to have foot surgery. 1028 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:27,240 Speaker 2: Yeah Yeah. 1029 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:35,480 Speaker 1: And apparently because of that foot surgery, the contract he 1030 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 1: signed with the Raiders eliminated his entire eleven point two 1031 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 1: five million dollars signing bonus. There are now reports that 1032 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: he may never play for the Raiders, like he will 1033 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: never actually play for the Raiders, Jimmy Garoppolo, which is 1034 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: a problem because without him, these are the quarterbacks they 1035 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:10,239 Speaker 1: have on the roster. Chase Garber's Aiden O'Connell, and yes, 1036 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: your former Patriots roommate Brian Hoyer. Yeah yeah, So it 1037 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: sounds like it's Brian Hoyre's team right now. So right 1038 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,080 Speaker 1: of those names, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hoyer's the guy, dude. 1039 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,400 Speaker 1: So in the midst of all this, you've been hearing 1040 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: the story that Tom Brady is seeking to get a 1041 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 1: slice of the Raiders' ownership, which, by the way, is 1042 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,719 Speaker 1: quite a coup for Mark Davis to get, you know, 1043 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,719 Speaker 1: Tom Brady to be part of your team. Mark is 1044 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,319 Speaker 1: doing everything possible to hang on to the Raiders, which 1045 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:48,920 Speaker 1: is very precarious, to say the least, because the Davis 1046 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 1: family actually owns less than fifty percent of the Raiders. 1047 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 1: But if you can get Tom Brady in the full, 1048 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:57,840 Speaker 1: it might help, right yep. So any time that you 1049 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 1: have someone buying any share of an NFL team, it 1050 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: has to be approved by the other owners because technically 1051 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 1: you would be an owner even if you're a minority owner. 1052 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 1: You're still an owner ownership team. Yeah, you got to 1053 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 1: be welcomed into the fraternity. So now the report is, 1054 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:20,359 Speaker 1: wait a second, what if Tom Brady decides to come 1055 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 1: out of retirement and play for the team that he 1056 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 1: actually owns. 1057 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:24,880 Speaker 2: It's not that easy. 1058 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,919 Speaker 1: In fact, the report is is that the owners may 1059 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 1: ask Tom Brady to give them written confirmation that he 1060 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,919 Speaker 1: is no longer playing football before the green light any 1061 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 1: approval of his ownership, whatever percentage it might be of 1062 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:45,440 Speaker 1: the Raiders. So you know, Tom Brady is his former teammate. 1063 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you've you've had his hands in very private parts, 1064 00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,880 Speaker 1: so you know that there's a personal level. As a center, 1065 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: he moisturizes he does very good. But my question is 1066 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,719 Speaker 1: this flips his fingernails. Do you believe? Because again Tom 1067 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: Brady has cleared himself of any commitment to his broadcast career, 1068 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,320 Speaker 1: at least for this season. Yeah, he said the earliest 1069 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 1: it would be his twenty twenty four. So now that 1070 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 1: it's obvious that the Raiders have a opening for quarterback 1071 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,480 Speaker 1: and it just so happens as long time offensive coordinator 1072 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 1: as the head coach, could you see tom Brady maybe 1073 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:27,399 Speaker 1: postpone his commitment to ownership of the Raiders for an 1074 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:31,960 Speaker 1: opportunity to resume his NFL career in the city of 1075 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. It makes sense to me, but I want 1076 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 1: to hear it from you. Can you see this as 1077 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:42,320 Speaker 1: possibly happening where Tom Brady does return to the NFL 1078 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 1: in a Raiders uniform in twenty twenty three. 1079 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 3: Well, you know, we were just talking about exceptions, right. 1080 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,919 Speaker 3: The reason why we talk about exceptions is because they 1081 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 3: are exceptional. The reason why they stick out is because 1082 00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:01,879 Speaker 3: they are outliers. The Deshaun Watson in contract. Nobody else 1083 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 3: is getting a fully guaranteed contract. Nobody wants to do that. 1084 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 3: Nobody wants to try to get those horses back into 1085 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,799 Speaker 3: the barn once they run out. The Browns did it. 1086 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 3: The rest of the league was pissed. The Browns are 1087 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 3: in some ways being punished for it because you look 1088 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 3: at the primetime scheduling, it's not taking into account how 1089 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,799 Speaker 3: good the Browns could potentially be. The rest of the 1090 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:27,880 Speaker 3: owners are thumbing their nose at them a little bit 1091 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,399 Speaker 3: because they're like, screw you. You al must screwed us, 1092 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,279 Speaker 3: Like that's not what we do around here. This is 1093 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 3: a very exceptional case, if you have Tom Brady, if 1094 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 3: you have an opportunity to get the greatest player of 1095 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 3: all time back on a football field for kind of 1096 00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 3: like one last dance. And not only is it going 1097 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 3: to be in a market that's very important for you 1098 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 3: to have success in because they just built that allegiant 1099 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 3: stadium out there and the Raiders. They've created some buzz, 1100 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,919 Speaker 3: but overall it hasn't been that positive. It hasn't been 1101 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 3: that great. Just making that coaching switch with Josh McDaniels 1102 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 3: after the Gruden failure and the Mayock failure, This isn't 1103 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,440 Speaker 3: going much better with Ziegler and McDaniels. So if you 1104 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 3: could somehow get Tom Brady back on the field for 1105 00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 3: one last dance, mind you, where's the super Bowl being 1106 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 3: played in twenty twenty three following the twenty or the 1107 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four following the twenty twenty three season in 1108 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 3: Las Vegas. I don't know how that work. When the 1109 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 3: Super Bowl was in Tampa his first year, twenty twenty 1110 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:33,480 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay gets Tom Brady twenty twenty one Super Bowl 1111 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 3: February seventh. 1112 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Bucks beat the Chiefs the class with a 1113 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, getting Stafford and his first year Super Bowl 1114 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: on their home field. So I'm just saying it makes 1115 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 1: the stars are starting to align, Steve. 1116 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 2: As far as. 1117 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: Tom Brady getting ownership in an NFL team, doesn't matter 1118 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 1: if it's this year or next year. His money's not 1119 00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 1: going anywhere. He's got plenty of money, Okay, So it 1120 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 1: makes all the sense in the world. Plus he has 1121 00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 1: his guy there as his coach. Yeah. And by the way, 1122 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:11,600 Speaker 1: you almot have the situation with Devontae Adams. Josh McDaniels 1123 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 1: came out this week says, well, he's earned the right 1124 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: to voice his complaints now. He came there originally because 1125 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 1: we all assume he wanted to be reunited with his 1126 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 1: former President State teammate Derek Carr is no longer there. 1127 00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 1: But if Tom Brady shows up, I'm I'm guessing DeVonta 1128 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 1: Adams would be sort. 1129 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 2: Of cool with that. He might be willing to stick around, 1130 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:31,080 Speaker 2: you know. 1131 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 1: I Look, I mean when you talk about reviving a 1132 00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 1: guy's career, I don't know when Randy Moss went to 1133 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 1: New England. 1134 00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 3: What was the problem with the Raiders last year? What 1135 00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 3: was the problem with the Raiders last year? I'll tell 1136 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 3: you what was the problem. They weren't clutch, They gave 1137 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,920 Speaker 3: away too many leads. They weren't good in the second half. 1138 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 3: What is Tom Brady if he's nothing else, He's clutch. 1139 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 3: He's good in the second half of games. He's worked 1140 00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 3: with Josh McDaniels before. Brian Horror, who you mentioned to 1141 00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:00,480 Speaker 3: start this segment, has been his back up for the 1142 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 3: majority of his career. He's got players all over that 1143 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 3: football field that he's familiar with from his playing days 1144 00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 3: in New England, plus a general manager who was on 1145 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 3: staff while he was in New England. To me, this 1146 00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:15,960 Speaker 3: makes perfect sense. You want to do a Swan song. 1147 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 3: You want to do the official goodbye, not some South Beach, 1148 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:24,280 Speaker 3: Miami Instagram video for forty seconds while you tearfully say 1149 00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 3: goodbye to the sport that you reigned over for twenty 1150 00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 3: one years. That's how we say goodbye to Tom Brady. 1151 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 1: Something he pre recorded. We don't know how full long 1152 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 1: before that is. I ain't buying it. Yeah, I'm not 1153 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: buying an eye. That's not the goodbye that he we 1154 00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:42,320 Speaker 1: deserve better, Tom, Well, hold on, let's let's take a 1155 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:46,080 Speaker 1: breath for a second. In this respect, what exactly is 1156 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 1: he signing on with. If he were to take over 1157 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,520 Speaker 1: as the quarterback of the Las Vegas Raiders. Well, here's 1158 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 1: what I can mean. This division. He pretty tough division 1159 00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:58,800 Speaker 1: right now, he will probably sign for an ultimately very 1160 00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:03,080 Speaker 1: low salary, and everybody make him as the third best 1161 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 1: quarterback in that division. Oh Tom Brady, No, no, no, no, no, 1162 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:08,320 Speaker 1: he's ahead of Patrick Mahomes. 1163 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:11,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's the He's the second best, better than Justin Herbert, 1164 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 3: better than Justin Herbert. 1165 01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:15,280 Speaker 1: Wow. Better. And I'll tell you why, because Tom Brady 1166 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 1: can still make seedy better than Russell Wilson, at least 1167 01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson that we signed last Look. 1168 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 3: Tom tom Brady can still make all the throws. I 1169 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 3: don't see any problem with more. 1170 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 1: Passes and completed more passes than any other play in 1171 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 1: the league. 1172 01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:32,880 Speaker 3: No issues there. Patrick Mahomes has star stuff sprinkled on him. 1173 01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 3: He's the best quarterback in the league right now that 1174 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:37,840 Speaker 3: you know, over Aaron Rodgers, over Tom Brady, over Herbert, 1175 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 3: over Allen, over all of them. But but Tom Brady 1176 01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 3: has something that. Look, Justin Herbert gave back a tremendous 1177 01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 3: lead in the second half of that playoff game against 1178 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:52,560 Speaker 3: the Jacksonville Jaguars last year. If Tom Brady was the 1179 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 3: quarterback of the Chargers, does that happen last season? My 1180 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:58,880 Speaker 3: answer is no, absolutely not. There's no chance he needs 1181 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:02,280 Speaker 3: to learn to win in the post. Tom Brady doesn't 1182 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 3: need to learn anything what the players around him. If 1183 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:08,880 Speaker 3: he should become a minority owner of the Raiders and 1184 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 3: then somehow finagles his way onto the football field as 1185 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 3: a starting quarterback as the Las Vegas Raiders, they're going 1186 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 3: to go as far as their mental acuity takes them, 1187 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 3: their ability to catch up to the game speed that 1188 01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 3: this guy has been performing at for a long time. 1189 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 3: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were able to pull it off 1190 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 3: in a single season. They won the Super Bowl on 1191 01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 3: their home turf that year. I could see it happening 1192 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 3: again in Las Vegas for the Raiders. If Tom Brady 1193 01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:36,959 Speaker 3: finds a way back to the field. 1194 01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,920 Speaker 1: All right, Well, if Brady has any concerns about the 1195 01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,480 Speaker 1: team he's joining, I could sweeten the pot a little bit. 1196 01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 1: I'll tell you about that. But first let's find out 1197 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:49,600 Speaker 1: what's trending right now.

You need a 1318 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:55,240 Speaker 3: Ronda Rowsi, You need a Connor McGregor. You need somebody 1319 01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:58,720 Speaker 3: who cuts through not just the sport to be a 1320 01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:01,520 Speaker 3: great champion, but also the zeitgeist. You need to have 1321 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 3: them make noise outside of just the sport they play in. 1322 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 3: And that's what that's what the UFC was able to 1323 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 3: capitalize on in a pugilistic sport. Racing hasn't had to 1324 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:14,920 Speaker 3: cut through star like that since maybe Danica Patrick. 1325 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, she was huge for NASCAR. She was actually big 1326 01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 1: for IndyCar before she moved to NASCAR. She didn't win anything, 1327 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:26,120 Speaker 1: but it didn't matter. She had star power. But this 1328 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,200 Speaker 1: is unbelievable that on a day that and at a 1329 01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 1: time when the Indy five hundred is actually happening, there 1330 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 1: is no coverage nothing. It's like it's not even happening. 1331 01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, I understand times change 1332 01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:43,320 Speaker 1: and interest change, but wow, for once. 1333 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 2: Very proud of it. 1334 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:46,880 Speaker 1: I've always said this about I've never actually been to 1335 01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:49,680 Speaker 1: the race, yeah, but I have been to the Indie Speedway, 1336 01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:54,720 Speaker 1: oh so, and their museum. You know, sports museums are 1337 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: what they are, right, halls of fame and everything else. 1338 01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:00,080 Speaker 1: Theirs is one of the best I've ever been in 1339 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 1: in somehow. The first any five hundred race was like 1340 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 1: nineteen oh nine something like that or nineteen eleven, and 1341 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 1: they had the foresight because they took film of it. 1342 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,920 Speaker 1: They even kept the car, yeah, like the first winning car. 1343 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 1: They I don't know why they would keep it but 1344 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 1: so it's a really great museum. Yeah, sort of the 1345 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 1: history of auto racing and over the last hundred years, 1346 01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:26,519 Speaker 1: but the race itself is just completely gone. 1347 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 3: I was never I didn't get to go to the museum, 1348 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:33,720 Speaker 3: but we so when I was with the Patriots in 1349 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:36,599 Speaker 3: twenty eleven that regular season, we go to the Super 1350 01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:39,439 Speaker 3: Bowl and it was in Indianapolis against the New York Giants. 1351 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:41,840 Speaker 3: And one of the events that they threw for us 1352 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,880 Speaker 3: was at the Motor Speedway, the Brickyard. You got to 1353 01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 3: go out there and kiss the bricks. It was kind 1354 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:49,160 Speaker 3: of cool, like we took pictures and then they had 1355 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 3: the new Chevrolet Camaro set up on the track and 1356 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:56,960 Speaker 3: they would take you around the track and you know 1357 01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 3: it's left hand turns. You're sitting in the passenger seat. 1358 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:02,200 Speaker 3: The wouldn't let us drive the cars, trust me, I asked, Yeah. 1359 01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:05,360 Speaker 3: The most the impactful moment of the whole visit there. 1360 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:07,559 Speaker 3: It wasn't the food, it wasn't the event. It wasn't 1361 01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:10,040 Speaker 3: even being on the track. When you are going around 1362 01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 3: a banked turn on a motor speedway like oh yeah, 1363 01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:16,519 Speaker 3: because they're going at such high speeds that these need 1364 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:19,120 Speaker 3: to be pitched at Damn near a forty five degree angle. 1365 01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:23,679 Speaker 3: I almost tumbled into the driver's lap from the passenger 1366 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,040 Speaker 3: seat out. Yeah, I didn't buckle my seatbelt. I completely 1367 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:27,440 Speaker 3: forgot because I was talking. 1368 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,760 Speaker 1: About the banking at Daytona when I went to that 1369 01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,439 Speaker 1: speedway is like a wall. Yeah yeah, yeah, I mean 1370 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:35,519 Speaker 1: it's a steep. I mean you can't climb it. Would 1371 01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:37,200 Speaker 1: you not be able to walk up? So we go. 1372 01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:40,719 Speaker 1: We hit this turn at probably won ten and I'm 1373 01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 1: literally holding on to the you know what bar like 1374 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 1: pulling myself back into my seat. I nearly sat on 1375 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:50,559 Speaker 1: the gear shift. I was like, dude, you didn't warn me. 1376 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 1: He was like, buckle your seat Yeah exactly. You didn't 1377 01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 1: have your seatbelt then? Yeah, yeah, well so I've been made. Wow. 1378 01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,479 Speaker 2: Yeah that's risky. 1379 01:10:01,920 --> 01:10:04,080 Speaker 1: So anyway, any five hundred is going on, we'll have 1380 01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:06,240 Speaker 1: a winner eventually of that race. 1381 01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:06,599 Speaker 2: All right. 1382 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:09,680 Speaker 1: So we were talking about Tom Brady and the I 1383 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 1: don't know makes sense return to a Raiders team that 1384 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:15,120 Speaker 1: doesn't have a quarterback right now with Jimmy Garoppolo having 1385 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:20,719 Speaker 1: that foot surgery. But what kind of team is he joining? 1386 01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 1: Was DeVante Adams Is voiced some discontent about the situation 1387 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. But let me ask you this. Let's 1388 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:32,759 Speaker 1: say in a division. In that division, and in addition 1389 01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:38,040 Speaker 1: to a DeVante Adams, you add the hop So we've 1390 01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:40,559 Speaker 1: been talking about some of these teams that are throwing 1391 01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:42,680 Speaker 1: their hat in the ring with DeAndre Hopkins. And by 1392 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:44,760 Speaker 1: the way, they're all big teams in the AFC. So 1393 01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:47,599 Speaker 1: you've heard about the Bills, You've heard about the Chiefs. 1394 01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 1: You've heard about the Ravens who suddenly say they're going 1395 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,160 Speaker 1: to throw the ball all over the place. That's what 1396 01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:57,200 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson says with their new offensive coordinator and the Jets. 1397 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 1: What about the Raiders. I mean, if you have DeAndre Hopkins, 1398 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:05,640 Speaker 1: who at age thirty, is not the receiver he was. 1399 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,280 Speaker 2: But I don't know. With Tom Brady throwing the ball. 1400 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 1: I guess he's going to be better than he was 1401 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 1: last year with Kyler Murray and whoever else they had 1402 01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 1: thrown the ball to him in Arizona. And you have 1403 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:21,759 Speaker 1: Devontae Adams. Say, if I'm Tom Brady, that sounds pretty 1404 01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:22,160 Speaker 1: good to me. 1405 01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 3: Let's just take a look at cap space. You know, 1406 01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:28,000 Speaker 3: when you think about which teams have enough room to 1407 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:29,919 Speaker 3: sign a d hop. 1408 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: Who's making twenty million this year. Yeah, and don't get 1409 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,479 Speaker 1: me any can rework a deal. I was gonna say, 1410 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:40,680 Speaker 1: if it's worth, if the juice is worth the squeeze, 1411 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 1: you sign and you restructure so that you can put 1412 01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:46,680 Speaker 1: off some of that cap hit and you take some 1413 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 1: money up front. And who knows, I mean maybe that's 1414 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:53,880 Speaker 1: part of the advanced mathematics here. You know, maybe if 1415 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:57,840 Speaker 1: Tom Brady becomes an owner, he takes an extremely low 1416 01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 1: salary like he has his entire career. Considering he's one 1417 01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:05,559 Speaker 1: of the greatest, if not the greatest, football player in 1418 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:09,280 Speaker 1: the league. You you have an opportunity to sign whoever 1419 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:12,160 Speaker 1: you want, and and and the Tom Brady effect is 1420 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 1: real because how many players over the course of his 1421 01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:17,240 Speaker 1: career have been willing to take a discount to play 1422 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:17,519 Speaker 1: with him. 1423 01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you this. 1424 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:21,759 Speaker 1: When he left New England, would you say their wide 1425 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,559 Speaker 1: receiver cor was of the level of DeVante Adams and 1426 01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:28,479 Speaker 1: d Hop No, I mean I would had I would 1427 01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 1: argue it was something less than that. Way less right. 1428 01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:33,320 Speaker 1: They still went to the postseason that year, by the way, 1429 01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean, outside of the final play he had as 1430 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 1: a Patriot was against the Titans in Foxborough where he 1431 01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:44,120 Speaker 1: threw the pick six on his final pass. Yep, yeah, 1432 01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:45,000 Speaker 1: so yeah. 1433 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:48,880 Speaker 3: I mean, look, he's going to again, we're jumping to 1434 01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:49,840 Speaker 3: so many conclusions. 1435 01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 2: I love that. 1436 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,960 Speaker 3: But if Tom Brady, what makes sense, ends up becoming 1437 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:57,280 Speaker 3: the Raiders starting quarterback this upcoming year, and you have 1438 01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:02,560 Speaker 3: an opportunity, if whether real or perceived, just an opportunity 1439 01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,879 Speaker 3: to sign a talent like DeAndre Hopkins, who went healthy 1440 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:09,720 Speaker 3: or available and not suspended due to PEDS is inarguably 1441 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,519 Speaker 3: one of the greatest receivers in the NFL. 1442 01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 1: With a Devonte Adams, with the Domonte Adams by the way, 1443 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:16,599 Speaker 1: which who's in a huge year. 1444 01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:19,440 Speaker 2: And by the way, you also had the league's leading rusher. 1445 01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 3: Exactly with Josh Jacobs, who's on a franchise tag, who, 1446 01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 3: by the way, is going to be thrilled to play 1447 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 3: on a franchise tag. With Tom Brady, the pieces fall 1448 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 3: into place pretty easily. 1449 01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:32,320 Speaker 1: And then when you think about Las Vegas hosting this 1450 01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:37,040 Speaker 1: upcoming Super Bowl, it almost feels like, geez, what do they. 1451 01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:40,639 Speaker 3: Say in the NBA man, The NBA writers, they're busy again. 1452 01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:46,200 Speaker 3: The NFL writers, they got busier. All right, I'm going 1453 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 3: to throw a little damper on this story though. 1454 01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:54,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tom Brady with the Raiders, there is one major hurdle, 1455 01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,760 Speaker 1: one major hurdle that you may not have thought about. 1456 01:13:59,000 --> 01:13:59,760 Speaker 2: I'll tell you about it. 1457 01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:05,400 Speaker 1: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Hartman, Rich Armburger, Fox 1458 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:10,439 Speaker 1: Sports Sunday Live from the Tyraq dot Com studios. All right, 1459 01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:12,880 Speaker 1: so we've been playing a little fantasy land here today 1460 01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 1: talking about the how it makes sense Tom Brady, who 1461 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:23,360 Speaker 1: is publicly seeking a part ownership of the Raiders, should 1462 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:25,600 Speaker 1: maybe postpone that for a year to actually be the 1463 01:14:25,680 --> 01:14:28,719 Speaker 1: quarterback of the team, now that it appears to Jimmy 1464 01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 1: Garoppolo after having foot surgery may not even be available 1465 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:35,960 Speaker 1: to the Raiders this year. Okay, So we've laid out 1466 01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:38,280 Speaker 1: a lot of different scenarios, all of which may, by 1467 01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:41,320 Speaker 1: the way, makes sense to me and I would imagine 1468 01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:44,799 Speaker 1: for you as well, Rich, But there's one major problem. 1469 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:52,280 Speaker 1: Go ahead, the tuck game. Yeah, yeah, Now, Tom Brady 1470 01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:54,920 Speaker 1: did that little thing with Charles Whitson, you know, when 1471 01:14:55,080 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 1: you know Woodson made the hit on Brady that resulted 1472 01:14:57,400 --> 01:15:01,240 Speaker 1: in the fumble that the Raiders were cut and then 1473 01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:04,920 Speaker 1: Tom Brady even conceded because that was his very first 1474 01:15:04,960 --> 01:15:05,759 Speaker 1: playoff game. 1475 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:06,960 Speaker 2: They were at home. 1476 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:11,800 Speaker 1: If they lose that game, If they lose that game 1477 01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:14,080 Speaker 1: instead of going on to win that first Super Bowl, 1478 01:15:14,520 --> 01:15:16,840 Speaker 1: Drew Bledsoe would have been the starting quarterback of the 1479 01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:20,720 Speaker 1: Patriots the following season. Tom Brady said that if it 1480 01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:24,240 Speaker 1: wasn't for that play going the Patriots' way and then 1481 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:28,200 Speaker 1: Vinettieri making that incredible field goal in the snow he goes, 1482 01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:29,840 Speaker 1: they would have brought Bletsoe back. 1483 01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:32,760 Speaker 2: He was the starting quarterback. I was a backup fill in. 1484 01:15:34,640 --> 01:15:37,840 Speaker 1: But if he wants to even be a part owner 1485 01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:40,400 Speaker 1: of the Raiders, he's going to have to come clean. 1486 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 1: You have no idea. I know Raider Nation. Whether it's 1487 01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:49,800 Speaker 1: the Immaculate Reception or the Top Play, they are the 1488 01:15:49,800 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 1: most infamous plays in Raider lore. They will not welcome 1489 01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:59,960 Speaker 1: Tom Brady unless he publicly admits it was a fun 1490 01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:05,799 Speaker 1: stop I fumbled. By the way, Jels is even saying 1491 01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:11,479 Speaker 1: that they're gonna be so thrilled to have Tom Brady back. No, no, oh, yeah, 1492 01:16:11,560 --> 01:16:15,320 Speaker 1: will welcome you back if you finally come clean. Here's 1493 01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:17,560 Speaker 1: the biggest problem that indeed it was a fumble to 1494 01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:22,880 Speaker 1: say to say, honestly, what I do look at as 1495 01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:27,040 Speaker 1: the biggest roadblock here is that offensive line. If they're 1496 01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:30,519 Speaker 1: not dead last, they're among the top three to the bottom. 1497 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:33,760 Speaker 1: They all knows how to get rid of the ball. Yeah, 1498 01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 1: I get it, but still one of the one of 1499 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:38,440 Speaker 1: the problems with the season last year for the Buccaneers 1500 01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:42,080 Speaker 1: was the fact that Tom Brady didn't have time that 1501 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 1: he was in self preservation mode on a lot of 1502 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 1: those plays where the rush was getting to him, he 1503 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:50,679 Speaker 1: would throw the ball away, he would take a sack. 1504 01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:53,960 Speaker 3: And then also there were a lot of drops downfield. 1505 01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:56,160 Speaker 3: There were a lot of potential home run shots that 1506 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 3: he threw up to Mike Evans or some of these 1507 01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:01,800 Speaker 3: other receivers that were just flat out led to a 1508 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 3: lot of poor performances by the Buccaneers. But this is 1509 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:10,720 Speaker 3: a completely different animal. You're going against some really astoundingly 1510 01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:14,040 Speaker 3: good pass rushers in the AFC West. I mean, it 1511 01:17:14,120 --> 01:17:17,120 Speaker 3: is clogged up there. You're gonna be harassed all season long, 1512 01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 3: and then throw on top of it. Inarguably one of 1513 01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:24,000 Speaker 3: the worst offensive lines leaving last season heading into this season, 1514 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:27,720 Speaker 3: that would be priority Numero uno. If I were Tom 1515 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,840 Speaker 3: Brady and I was even considering, after getting approval to 1516 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:32,880 Speaker 3: be a minority owner, to return to the field for 1517 01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:35,880 Speaker 3: the Raiders. Is what do we do about this offensive line. 1518 01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 1: I want to hear the words it was a fumble. 1519 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:44,400 Speaker 1: I want to hear the words as a Raider, you 1520 01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:47,559 Speaker 1: want to be one of us, you better come clean 1521 01:17:48,439 --> 01:17:51,120 Speaker 1: that the Raiders are robbed that day. That your career 1522 01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:55,600 Speaker 1: should never even have happened. It would have been like 1523 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 1: Frank o'harris joining the Raiders during his career. Like, no, 1524 01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:03,120 Speaker 1: not unless you admit that that was an illegal play. 1525 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:05,639 Speaker 1: I know the Raider mentality. You have no idea. 1526 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 2: They're bitter. 1527 01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:09,720 Speaker 1: Instead of celebrating the good times with the Raiders, they're 1528 01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 1: still bitter about the two over in his grave. If 1529 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:15,040 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Tom Brady was a Raiders quarterback 1530 01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:17,639 Speaker 1: and he still hadn't admitted that it was actually a fumble, 1531 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:21,439 Speaker 1: I mean it to me. You know Al personally, you 1532 01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:23,680 Speaker 1: worked for him, You were in that office, you were 1533 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:28,760 Speaker 1: called in, Hey humming, get over here. You know you 1534 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 1: know somebody you talk about a story about Al Davis 1535 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:35,160 Speaker 1: and a prime opponent. So Chuck Knowle was the coach 1536 01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 1: of the Pittsburgh Steelers during the seventies when they won 1537 01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:40,920 Speaker 1: their four Super Bowls. Chuck Noll and Al Davis were 1538 01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:46,599 Speaker 1: both assistant coaches, original assistant coaches with the Chargers under 1539 01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:48,840 Speaker 1: head coach sid Gilman, so they knew each other very 1540 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,960 Speaker 1: very well. The Steelers had taken Terry Bradshaw with the 1541 01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:54,759 Speaker 1: number one overall pick in nineteen seventy and his career 1542 01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:58,840 Speaker 1: wasn't going very well, right, And Al Davis because he 1543 01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 1: loved the big arm Terry Bradshaw, I had told Chuck no, 1544 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:05,800 Speaker 1: when they were gonna go, like Joe Gillim is their quarterback, 1545 01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 1: he calls him like, and this is the owner of 1546 01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 1: the Raiders with you know, with the Steelers, saying what 1547 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:15,120 Speaker 1: are you doing? You've got your quarterback? Stay with Bradshaw. Yeah, 1548 01:19:15,160 --> 01:19:17,320 Speaker 1: And then Bradshaw kept beating him and he goes, I mean, 1549 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 1: he worked against him. He was ready to give up. 1550 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:23,400 Speaker 1: He couldn't take it anymore with this Terry Bradshaw, dumbest 1551 01:19:23,479 --> 01:19:27,840 Speaker 1: quarterback he ever coached. He's like, he sucks terrible. And 1552 01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:29,040 Speaker 1: Al was like, are you kidding me? 1553 01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:29,639 Speaker 2: With that arm? 1554 01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 10: I killed? 1555 01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:31,559 Speaker 1: They have a quarterback that with that arm? 1556 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:34,280 Speaker 3: Look, I mean, if there's one thing that you got 1557 01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:37,760 Speaker 3: to respect about Al Davis and the Raiders. Is he 1558 01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:40,360 Speaker 3: when when he put his foot down on something like 1559 01:19:40,479 --> 01:19:43,120 Speaker 3: drafting a kicker in the first round, whatever it may be, 1560 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:46,880 Speaker 3: they went for it. That's kind of the that's kind 1561 01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:49,000 Speaker 3: of the place they're in right now. I mean, if 1562 01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:52,439 Speaker 3: you have an opportunity, because we know there's not going 1563 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:55,439 Speaker 3: to be very many opportunities outside this season to convince 1564 01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:58,160 Speaker 3: Tom Brady of anything come back and play football. He's 1565 01:19:58,160 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 3: going to be off to his retirement life, whether it's 1566 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:01,720 Speaker 3: in the media, which it appears, it's going to be 1567 01:20:01,760 --> 01:20:05,559 Speaker 3: here producing movies, which he's already done, whatever ventures next 1568 01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 3: for him. It's that spirit of, hey, we just gotta 1569 01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:11,639 Speaker 3: do whatever it takes to be good right now. And 1570 01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:14,720 Speaker 3: this is what it is tom Brady. If he ends 1571 01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:17,559 Speaker 3: up coming back and playing for the Raiders. I don't 1572 01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:20,280 Speaker 3: care about their offensive line, I don't care about the 1573 01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:24,280 Speaker 3: issues they have defensively. That team becomes a potential Super 1574 01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:27,280 Speaker 3: Bowl winner this upcoming season because they have literally the 1575 01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:30,799 Speaker 3: greatest player who's ever played the game gracing their presence 1576 01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:32,200 Speaker 3: on the field with them every Sunday. 1577 01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 1: You want to put on the silver and black.

But my 1628 01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 3: brain doesn't work, so every time I come to La 1629 01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:52,320 Speaker 3: to do this show, I'm like, damn it, I didn't 1630 01:22:52,320 --> 01:22:53,160 Speaker 3: bring the egg plant. 1631 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:53,639 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1632 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:57,120 Speaker 3: Anyways, we figured it out, Monty. Sorry it took so long. 1633 01:22:57,240 --> 01:23:00,639 Speaker 3: All right, your Clipper is my Goodn's what a fight 1634 01:23:00,720 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 3: they put up. 1635 01:23:01,320 --> 01:23:01,840 Speaker 10: What a fight? 1636 01:23:02,360 --> 01:23:04,719 Speaker 1: Uh? And that's the reason why I owed you, yes, 1637 01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:08,440 Speaker 1: that plan, And it's only for the reason to celebrate 1638 01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:11,200 Speaker 1: knowing that the Clippers have already announced they want to 1639 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:14,519 Speaker 1: extend the deals ch of both Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. 1640 01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:14,800 Speaker 1: Why not. 1641 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:17,920 Speaker 2: They delivered so much over the last four year they played. 1642 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 10: Up, they played sixteen in a row. 1643 01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:23,680 Speaker 3: So much, so much basketball since they've been Clippers. So 1644 01:23:23,840 --> 01:23:27,439 Speaker 3: I've just been on the court through it all. How 1645 01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 3: many games together. 1646 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:29,800 Speaker 10: Just so many? 1647 01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:32,080 Speaker 1: I lost track, at least a handful. 1648 01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:34,960 Speaker 2: Twenty six laps to go on the anty five hundred. 1649 01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:38,160 Speaker 1: This is a big deal, guys. Award is leading right now. 1650 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:40,559 Speaker 1: Lock it in. It's always weird to look at the leaders, 1651 01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:43,519 Speaker 1: because you know, some guys have pitted and some guys 1652 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:45,880 Speaker 1: haven't pitted, so you don't really know who's leading till 1653 01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:49,920 Speaker 1: the end. All Right, We've been talking plenty of NFL today, uh, 1654 01:23:50,040 --> 01:23:53,840 Speaker 1: and it really all rolled around DeAndre Hopkins. Somehow we 1655 01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:56,960 Speaker 1: got off on the Tom Brady tangent. But I want 1656 01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:58,599 Speaker 1: to get back to Dee Hawk for a second here, 1657 01:23:58,680 --> 01:24:02,960 Speaker 1: because again, it's a it's an interesting situation that someone 1658 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:07,040 Speaker 1: of his caliber is out there and immediately we're not 1659 01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:10,680 Speaker 1: hearing Usually when you got an aging veteran, he's just 1660 01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:13,040 Speaker 1: looking to hook on with anybody that would be willing 1661 01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:16,880 Speaker 1: to sign him. But we're here in the elite of 1662 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:20,640 Speaker 1: the AFC are lined up. So i'm gonna give you, 1663 01:24:21,040 --> 01:24:22,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave the Raiders out of this, okay, but 1664 01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:25,519 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you four teams that are very much 1665 01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:28,639 Speaker 1: in the mix, and I'm gonna ask you this question. 1666 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:31,040 Speaker 1: Which one of these teams would he have the greatest 1667 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 1: impact on? Okay, So he's joining the team and he 1668 01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:39,040 Speaker 1: would have the most impact for which one of these 1669 01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:46,360 Speaker 1: four teams? Okay, the Chiefs, the Bills, the Ravens, or 1670 01:24:46,400 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 1: the Jets. Which one of those four teams would he 1671 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:52,320 Speaker 1: have the biggest impact on? 1672 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:59,920 Speaker 3: At first Blush, I would say, I would say the Jets, 1673 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:03,040 Speaker 3: because just think about where the Jets were last year 1674 01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:05,280 Speaker 3: compared to where they would be this year with Alan 1675 01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:08,960 Speaker 3: Lazard and DeAndre Hopkins and Aaron Rodgers. I mean, all 1676 01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:12,040 Speaker 3: of a sudden, you have at least at. 1677 01:25:11,920 --> 01:25:14,080 Speaker 1: Least don't forget they have the offensive rookie of the 1678 01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 1: year from last year. 1679 01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:16,160 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Wilson, Yeah. 1680 01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:20,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Wilson. Yeah, gosh, Wilson, an emerging star, 1681 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:24,360 Speaker 3: could be your one. I mean, but DeAndre Hopkins, Alan Lazard, 1682 01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:28,280 Speaker 3: no slatches, obviously Lazard long playing history with the Rogers. 1683 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:31,400 Speaker 3: I mean it's the Jets. He would make the most 1684 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:33,880 Speaker 3: profound impact on the Jets because all of a sudden, 1685 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 3: it gives you another veteran the room who knows how 1686 01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:38,880 Speaker 3: to win, who has had some of the best years 1687 01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:41,839 Speaker 3: we've seen from a receiver over the course of his career. Certainly, 1688 01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:45,559 Speaker 3: can he get back to a fifteen hundred yard per 1689 01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 3: year guy, No, probably not. But my comp I was 1690 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:51,840 Speaker 3: talking about this yesterday on Fox Sports Radio the morning 1691 01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:55,519 Speaker 3: show Fox Sports Saturday. I was saying, I was saying 1692 01:25:56,280 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 3: the comparison for me, is Christian McCaffrey like injuries. I 1693 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:04,960 Speaker 3: know he didn't have a positive PD test, but injuries 1694 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:08,000 Speaker 3: had hampered his production for years. He was supposed to 1695 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:10,840 Speaker 3: be the guy in Carolina, the same way De Hop 1696 01:26:11,160 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 3: was supposed to be the guy in Arizona. It just 1697 01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:16,720 Speaker 3: didn't work out. And as a result, we know the 1698 01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:19,760 Speaker 3: potential there. But he needs somebody to take some of 1699 01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,439 Speaker 3: the load off of his shoulders. You know, he can't 1700 01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:25,679 Speaker 3: carry the yoke alone. Who else is going to bear 1701 01:26:25,720 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 3: the weight the brunt of the offensive output? And in 1702 01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:31,960 Speaker 3: New York he would have help obviously out of the 1703 01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:35,640 Speaker 3: backfield with Bryce Hall, Wilson and Lazard and you have 1704 01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:38,680 Speaker 3: you have a quarterback who's gonna find you. I to me, 1705 01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:42,559 Speaker 3: him going to New York or really to any team 1706 01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:45,240 Speaker 3: that has a combination of offensive stars reminds me a 1707 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,800 Speaker 3: lot of Christian McCaffrey going to the San Francisco forty 1708 01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:50,719 Speaker 3: nine ers. But yeah, without a question, New York Jets 1709 01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:53,639 Speaker 3: would profoundly be impacted by him coming over to them 1710 01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:54,719 Speaker 3: and signing as a free agent. 1711 01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:57,320 Speaker 1: Well, assuming his head is right and his body's right, 1712 01:26:57,360 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 1: he would have an impact on all those teams. But 1713 01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:01,920 Speaker 1: I Yes, Saturday, Bucky Brooks and I were talking about 1714 01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:04,800 Speaker 1: this with Lamar Jackson with all this you know, new 1715 01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:08,240 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator and Lamar Jackson, you know, talking about you know, 1716 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:10,280 Speaker 1: he wants to throw for six thousand yards. But the 1717 01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:12,840 Speaker 1: one thing that we most likely will see from the 1718 01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:15,840 Speaker 1: Ravens is far more passing than we've seen over the 1719 01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:19,439 Speaker 1: last several years of Lamar Jackson. Uh maybe for self 1720 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 1: preservation if nothing else. Plus, they've invested a lot of 1721 01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:24,840 Speaker 1: money in him. And so I asked Bucky, I said, 1722 01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:28,719 Speaker 1: when when we look at Lamar Jackson, uh, throwing the football, 1723 01:27:30,560 --> 01:27:34,639 Speaker 1: where where where does he do best? I mean where 1724 01:27:34,680 --> 01:27:36,800 Speaker 1: where where does he excel in the passing him? 1725 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:37,120 Speaker 2: He goes. 1726 01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:39,519 Speaker 1: Where he excels best is in the middle of the field. 1727 01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:42,320 Speaker 1: Of course, that's where he excels the most when he 1728 01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:46,080 Speaker 1: has to throw out sometimes throwing deep, this is where 1729 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:48,479 Speaker 1: you're not going to get the level of consistency. But 1730 01:27:49,160 --> 01:27:51,720 Speaker 1: when he's throwing in patterns, when he's throwing into the 1731 01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:57,520 Speaker 1: middle of the field, crossing routes, very very accurate routes, slants, 1732 01:27:58,160 --> 01:28:02,800 Speaker 1: which to me is perfect with the DeAndre Hopkins yep. 1733 01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 1: Because de hop at age thirty maybe not have that 1734 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,280 Speaker 1: you know, downfield speed that he once had, but he 1735 01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:11,599 Speaker 1: knows how to navigate the middle of the field. That's 1736 01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:15,559 Speaker 1: where veteran receivers really excel is finding those open areas 1737 01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:16,360 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field. 1738 01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:18,400 Speaker 2: And if your quarterback delivers. 1739 01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,160 Speaker 1: The ball in the right spot, you know, a fifteen 1740 01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:22,800 Speaker 1: yard pass can go for a forty yard game. So 1741 01:28:22,920 --> 01:28:26,240 Speaker 1: that's why I would say if I were the Baltimore Ravens. Now, 1742 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,360 Speaker 1: obviously they got Odell Beckham, they have some talent. Now 1743 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,560 Speaker 1: they brought in others. But again, if you're going to 1744 01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:39,120 Speaker 1: commit to the passing game to a much larger extent, yeah, 1745 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:41,280 Speaker 1: I'm going to kick the tires here on d hop 1746 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:42,519 Speaker 1: to see if he could add something. 1747 01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,280 Speaker 3: Well, this was the wish list, right, Lamar Jackson said, 1748 01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:49,720 Speaker 3: Odell Beckham Junior and DeAndre Hopkins, per sources, are the 1749 01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:55,120 Speaker 3: receivers he spotlighted as both free agents and trades that 1750 01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:57,600 Speaker 3: he wanted the Baltimore Ravens to make to firm up 1751 01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:00,479 Speaker 3: the commitment. Now they've given him the contract, they've given 1752 01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 3: him Odell Beckham Junior and free agency. Can you imagine 1753 01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:06,400 Speaker 3: if they do the clean sweep they get the deal done. 1754 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:10,000 Speaker 3: They get both the receivers, and then they get a refreshed, 1755 01:29:10,200 --> 01:29:14,200 Speaker 3: rejuvenated Lamar Jackson who wants to win for the city. 1756 01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:16,760 Speaker 3: He's not going anywhere, you know. There's no more of 1757 01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 3: this speculation over where does he go after this season? 1758 01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:22,719 Speaker 3: Franchise tag or not, blah blah blah, No, no. 1759 01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 1: No, no, no. 1760 01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:28,960 Speaker 3: This is going to be a completely un would you say, like, 1761 01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 3: he's just gonna be unencumbered mentally for the first time 1762 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:35,599 Speaker 3: in over a year because he's not talking to the 1763 01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 3: reporters every week about the contract updates. He's not negotiating 1764 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:42,120 Speaker 3: his own contract like he was forced to do without 1765 01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:42,639 Speaker 3: an agent. 1766 01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:43,240 Speaker 1: You know. 1767 01:29:43,320 --> 01:29:47,120 Speaker 3: So this is a great opportunity for the Baltimore Ravens 1768 01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:49,479 Speaker 3: to get really good, really fast. Now they already have. 1769 01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:52,439 Speaker 3: In my opinion, adding Obj is a big deal. It's 1770 01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:54,720 Speaker 3: a coup. I think it's gonna work out for them. 1771 01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:57,960 Speaker 3: I think he's probably has some football still left in 1772 01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:00,320 Speaker 3: him and Mark Andrews takes a lot of the attention away. 1773 01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:03,840 Speaker 3: It could work. But you bring in d Hop that's 1774 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:06,680 Speaker 3: a big deal, my man. That is that is a 1775 01:30:06,760 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 3: guy when healthy, is a game changing talent. Another thing 1776 01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:14,040 Speaker 3: that I put out there is Look, DeAndre Hopkins. People 1777 01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:16,320 Speaker 3: are like, well, where does he fit best? He fits 1778 01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:17,479 Speaker 3: everywhere exactly. 1779 01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 1: He's fine. Well, think about the offensive system. I mean 1780 01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:23,880 Speaker 1: a year ago, we were speculating about how the Chiefs 1781 01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:26,880 Speaker 1: would fare without Tyreek Hill, and the idea was is 1782 01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:30,920 Speaker 1: that Kelsey would you know, be doubled up constantly. 1783 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:32,720 Speaker 2: Have you take Tyreek Hill out of the mix. 1784 01:30:32,800 --> 01:30:35,920 Speaker 1: Wow, they're a much more defensible team where we can 1785 01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:38,320 Speaker 1: just focus on, you know, eliminating Kelsey. 1786 01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:39,400 Speaker 2: Well, guess who did not get. 1787 01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:43,120 Speaker 1: Eliminated last year. Travis Kelcey. H And I'm I'm one 1788 01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:47,040 Speaker 1: of those that had my doubts no longer doubts. Patrick 1789 01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:51,880 Speaker 1: Mahomes is the best quarterback in the league. 1790 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:54,479 Speaker 2: The Chiefs are the best team in the league. 1791 01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:58,080 Speaker 1: But you're Andy Reid and like, wait a second, you 1792 01:30:58,080 --> 01:31:03,439 Speaker 1: mean we could add d Hop That would suddenly change 1793 01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:07,160 Speaker 1: the dynamic for teams going against us. They got a 1794 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:09,639 Speaker 1: count for d Hop, which what only makes things easier 1795 01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:12,439 Speaker 1: for Travis Kelcey. I don't know, when it's all said 1796 01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:15,559 Speaker 1: and done, I will not be surprised if the rich 1797 01:31:15,720 --> 01:31:18,080 Speaker 1: just get a little bit richer. Well, I mean, because 1798 01:31:18,120 --> 01:31:18,639 Speaker 1: if it's up. 1799 01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:20,400 Speaker 2: To d Hob which team would you want to join. 1800 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:24,679 Speaker 3: It's again one of those one of those things where 1801 01:31:24,880 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 3: if you're an aging veteran, what's the most important to you? 1802 01:31:28,360 --> 01:31:32,040 Speaker 3: Is it money anymore? No, it's your legacy. It's winning 1803 01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 3: eight championships. He wants to win. He wants to join 1804 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:37,800 Speaker 3: a winner. So when people are saying, hey, you know, 1805 01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:40,439 Speaker 3: the Colts have a lot of cap space, I go, yeah, 1806 01:31:40,479 --> 01:31:44,679 Speaker 3: But he wants to go and start over with Anthony Richardson. No, 1807 01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:47,920 Speaker 3: it's not happening. I mean, unless they're willing to offer 1808 01:31:48,000 --> 01:31:51,720 Speaker 3: him somehow a king's ransom to go play there in Indianapolis. 1809 01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:56,080 Speaker 3: It's not happening. He's going to go join a proven winner, 1810 01:31:56,320 --> 01:32:00,000 Speaker 3: someone who's still on the upward trajectory climb. They're only 1811 01:32:00,120 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 3: reason why I would consider New York with the Jets 1812 01:32:02,240 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 3: is because of Aaron Rodgers. The only reason why he 1813 01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:08,840 Speaker 3: would consider Kansas City or San Francisco, or Buffalo or 1814 01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:12,639 Speaker 3: Baltimore is because of their quarterbacks, because they can find him. 1815 01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:14,639 Speaker 3: He needs a quarterback who could find him. He needs 1816 01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:16,920 Speaker 3: to be a part of the plus side of the 1817 01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,479 Speaker 3: offensive production, and he wants a team that can win 1818 01:32:19,640 --> 01:32:23,679 Speaker 3: right now because he's got one. Maybe two good years 1819 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:26,759 Speaker 3: being on the wrong side of thirty before the wheels 1820 01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:28,640 Speaker 3: start falling off like a lot of receivers. 1821 01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:30,519 Speaker 1: All right, we have more NFL news to get to 1822 01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:32,400 Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the show. We're gonna 1823 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 1: get back to the NBA, where, of course, last night 1824 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:38,000 Speaker 1: was unbelievable. I mean, still one of the most amazing 1825 01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:41,240 Speaker 1: plays I've ever seen in my life. In real time, 1826 01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:43,840 Speaker 1: it looked like it was after the buzzer. Hello, he 1827 01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:48,559 Speaker 1: welcome to the NBA Finals. Slow down? Oh my, Derek 1828 01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:51,880 Speaker 1: White tipped it in. We got a game seven. But 1829 01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:54,559 Speaker 1: what about the team waiting right now? 1830 01:32:55,439 --> 01:32:57,799 Speaker 2: And waiting and waiting. 1831 01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:01,479 Speaker 1: Do you realize that the Nuggets are going to have 1832 01:33:01,520 --> 01:33:05,320 Speaker 1: a ten day layoff to get ready for Game one 1833 01:33:05,320 --> 01:33:06,360 Speaker 1: of the NBA Finals? 1834 01:33:06,439 --> 01:33:07,840 Speaker 2: Lights, how do they handle that? 1835 01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:08,720 Speaker 1: We'll tell you. 1836 01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:10,559 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday. 1837 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 1: Steve Harbin, Rich Horberger, this is Fox Sports Sunday. We 1838 01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:18,160 Speaker 1: are live from the Tyraq dot Com studios. 1839 01:33:18,800 --> 01:33:21,679 Speaker 2: Hey, let's bring back a voice from the past. 1840 01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:25,800 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen had something to say about 1841 01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:28,080 Speaker 1: his former teammate Michael Jordan. 1842 01:33:28,320 --> 01:33:31,280 Speaker 12: Lebron will be the greatest statistical guy to ever play 1843 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:35,520 Speaker 12: the game on basketball, and there's no comparison to him none. 1844 01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:38,320 Speaker 12: So does that make him the greatest player to ever 1845 01:33:38,320 --> 01:33:41,200 Speaker 12: play the game? I leave it out for debatings because 1846 01:33:41,280 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 12: I don't believe that there's a great player, because our 1847 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:46,160 Speaker 12: game is a team game and one player can't do it. 1848 01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:48,720 Speaker 12: Like I've seen Michael Jordan play before I came to 1849 01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:51,559 Speaker 12: play with the Bulls. You guys seen him play. He's 1850 01:33:51,600 --> 01:33:54,280 Speaker 12: a horrible player. He was horrible to play with. He 1851 01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:57,800 Speaker 12: was all one on one, He's shooting bad shots, and 1852 01:33:58,400 --> 01:34:00,600 Speaker 12: all of a sudden, we become I'm a team and 1853 01:34:00,640 --> 01:34:03,400 Speaker 12: we start winning. Everybody forgot who he. 1854 01:34:03,560 --> 01:34:06,760 Speaker 1: Was, all right, So this is no surprise after the 1855 01:34:06,880 --> 01:34:10,600 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan special that we all witnessed during the shutdown, 1856 01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:15,280 Speaker 1: in which Michael Jordan ripped Scottie Pippen at every single turn, 1857 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:19,680 Speaker 1: dismissing him as a passenger on a luxury liner. So 1858 01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 1: the fact that Pippin's getting back at Jordan should come 1859 01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:26,559 Speaker 1: as no surprise. Look, as far as the goat argument 1860 01:34:26,640 --> 01:34:30,320 Speaker 1: is concerned, Rich, you know where I stand. I know 1861 01:34:30,320 --> 01:34:33,760 Speaker 1: where you stand. I've said at time and again, if 1862 01:34:33,800 --> 01:34:38,200 Speaker 1: there's only one way for me to gauge goat, and 1863 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:42,120 Speaker 1: that's your resume. There's a lot of speculation, like Michael 1864 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:45,439 Speaker 1: Jordan retired abruptly in the middle of his career, at 1865 01:34:45,439 --> 01:34:47,680 Speaker 1: the height of his career and miss a year and 1866 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:49,920 Speaker 1: a half and then comes back and is every bit 1867 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:53,320 Speaker 1: as good as he was before he left. But no 1868 01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:56,519 Speaker 1: one has Lebron's resume. He's the all time leading scorer 1869 01:34:56,560 --> 01:34:58,639 Speaker 1: in the history of the NBA. He's in the top 1870 01:34:58,640 --> 01:35:01,439 Speaker 1: of the list as far as assistance concerned. He's led 1871 01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:05,639 Speaker 1: ten teams to the NBA Finals. He's been Finals MVP 1872 01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:11,599 Speaker 1: for three different franchises, and if the MVP voting was legit, 1873 01:35:13,320 --> 01:35:15,000 Speaker 1: he would have won more than the four that he 1874 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:18,160 Speaker 1: already has. Whether you like him personally or don't like 1875 01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 1: him personally, although I know Schweiser, anyone would dislike Lebron James. 1876 01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:25,960 Speaker 1: I mean the fact that he is maybe his political 1877 01:35:26,040 --> 01:35:28,400 Speaker 1: views clear, you know by the way he paid homage 1878 01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:31,840 Speaker 1: to Jim Brown, who was a very outspoken superstar athlete. 1879 01:35:32,240 --> 01:35:34,960 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan chose not to get involved. That's his choice, 1880 01:35:35,760 --> 01:35:37,720 Speaker 1: same thing as Tyer Woods. I'm not blaming them. 1881 01:35:37,800 --> 01:35:38,799 Speaker 2: They made a choice. 1882 01:35:39,400 --> 01:35:42,519 Speaker 1: But when you compare resumes, there is no well about 1883 01:35:42,560 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 1: six for six in the NBA finals. Let me remind 1884 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:47,400 Speaker 1: you the Bulls are favored in all six of those 1885 01:35:47,520 --> 01:35:51,000 Speaker 1: NBA finals. In the ten NBA finals that Lebron participated, 1886 01:35:51,040 --> 01:35:53,840 Speaker 1: his teams favored to win three and he won four. 1887 01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:57,519 Speaker 1: So but I mean, that's those are pretty strong words 1888 01:35:57,520 --> 01:35:59,840 Speaker 1: coming out of the mouth of Scotty Pipple. 1889 01:36:00,120 --> 01:36:04,520 Speaker 3: Look, I mean, to the victor, go the spoils, champions, 1890 01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:05,559 Speaker 3: write history, etc. 1891 01:36:05,800 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 1: Etc. 1892 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:08,479 Speaker 3: We know how this works. I mean, Jordan has had 1893 01:36:08,479 --> 01:36:12,280 Speaker 3: control of this nineties Bowls narrative for the most part 1894 01:36:12,439 --> 01:36:16,000 Speaker 3: because in part a lot of the journalists at the 1895 01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:19,120 Speaker 3: time were in Jordan's pocket because they wanted to be 1896 01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 3: close to him, so they want to wrong him, which 1897 01:36:21,960 --> 01:36:24,799 Speaker 3: I completely understand because guess what, that's how those journalists 1898 01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:28,200 Speaker 3: fed their families writing about Jordan. So those who had 1899 01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:34,559 Speaker 3: the closest access, they got the more favorable stories from Michael, 1900 01:36:34,680 --> 01:36:37,200 Speaker 3: or got the quote from Michael, or got the time 1901 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:41,320 Speaker 3: with Michael. And so Michael, being the greatest player in 1902 01:36:41,360 --> 01:36:44,840 Speaker 3: the league at the time, obviously a savior in some 1903 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:49,320 Speaker 3: sorts of a struggling NBA, created something that very few 1904 01:36:49,320 --> 01:36:52,439 Speaker 3: players could have ever created. Oh, by the way, launched 1905 01:36:52,439 --> 01:36:55,360 Speaker 3: a brand that is inarguably one of the most or 1906 01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:58,839 Speaker 3: the most sports popular sports brand in the world. 1907 01:36:59,200 --> 01:36:59,839 Speaker 1: Air Jordan. 1908 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:05,439 Speaker 3: So there's so much culturally and athletically and from a 1909 01:37:05,960 --> 01:37:10,720 Speaker 3: NBA standpoint that he's been responsible for. But then on 1910 01:37:10,760 --> 01:37:12,880 Speaker 3: top of it, he has complete control the narrative, the 1911 01:37:12,960 --> 01:37:15,280 Speaker 3: documentary that was released during the pandemic, etc. 1912 01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:15,680 Speaker 8: Etc. 1913 01:37:16,400 --> 01:37:21,120 Speaker 3: Scottie Pippen has been painted as this third wheel, this 1914 01:37:22,640 --> 01:37:26,760 Speaker 3: also ran guy who was an integral part of those 1915 01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:32,439 Speaker 3: champions those championships for the Bulls. He was an unbelievable player. 1916 01:37:32,600 --> 01:37:35,160 Speaker 3: Scottie Pippen is a Hall of Famer for good reason, 1917 01:37:35,200 --> 01:37:37,439 Speaker 3: because he deserves to be in the Hall Feame. I 1918 01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 3: don't know if Jordan wins that many titles without Scotty. 1919 01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:44,559 Speaker 1: All right, here here's my argument about ranking athletes in 1920 01:37:44,600 --> 01:37:48,320 Speaker 1: team sports. Now, when you talk about an athlete in 1921 01:37:48,320 --> 01:37:51,720 Speaker 1: a team sport and you talk about individual accolades, you know, 1922 01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:54,599 Speaker 1: Jordan led the league is scoring, that's an individual thing, 1923 01:37:54,680 --> 01:37:56,920 Speaker 1: or he's an MVPR this. Yeah, But when you say 1924 01:37:56,920 --> 01:38:00,400 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan won six championships, you're missing a war there. 1925 01:38:02,439 --> 01:38:05,599 Speaker 1: He was a member of six teams that won championship exactly. 1926 01:38:07,479 --> 01:38:11,280 Speaker 1: He's a member of six teams that won a championship. 1927 01:38:11,560 --> 01:38:15,000 Speaker 1: The Hall of Fame is an individual word. I remember 1928 01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:18,599 Speaker 1: Joe Montana. I was actually at Joe Montana's Pro Football 1929 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:21,080 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame induction ceremony. How he Long was inducted 1930 01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:24,599 Speaker 1: that year, and he put it best I thought when 1931 01:38:24,600 --> 01:38:27,000 Speaker 1: he said, I really have a hard time putting this 1932 01:38:27,080 --> 01:38:32,840 Speaker 1: in perspective because I play in a team sport. I 1933 01:38:32,960 --> 01:38:35,599 Speaker 1: was part of a team that won for Super Bowls. 1934 01:38:36,400 --> 01:38:41,840 Speaker 1: For me to be individually acknowledged without the teammates that 1935 01:38:42,960 --> 01:38:46,479 Speaker 1: I would not have won for super Bowls without seems 1936 01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:51,760 Speaker 1: out of place that you're given an individual honor in 1937 01:38:51,840 --> 01:38:54,879 Speaker 1: a team sport. This is not golf, this is not tennis. 1938 01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:59,320 Speaker 1: These team sports are about team and I think that's 1939 01:38:59,320 --> 01:39:02,000 Speaker 1: what Scotty pip in a stressing look with the Bulls 1940 01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:05,519 Speaker 1: have won six championships of Michael Jordan, probably not, but 1941 01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 1: they never won a championship without Scotty Pippen either. 1942 01:39:08,160 --> 01:39:12,200 Speaker 3: Right, Well, so, and that's that's my point, is like 1943 01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:15,280 Speaker 3: Scotty was an important part of this process, and so 1944 01:39:15,400 --> 01:39:18,120 Speaker 3: for all of what Scotty said, the part that I 1945 01:39:18,120 --> 01:39:22,280 Speaker 3: do believe is that he needed a great team around him. 1946 01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:25,960 Speaker 3: To achieve greatness from a team standpoint. Now, individually, though, 1947 01:39:26,120 --> 01:39:26,960 Speaker 3: was Jordan great? 1948 01:39:27,120 --> 01:39:27,640 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1949 01:39:27,920 --> 01:39:30,840 Speaker 1: Was he a bad basketball player before Scotty got there? 1950 01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:33,320 Speaker 1: That's a harsh word, Matt. How was he bad? He 1951 01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:34,200 Speaker 1: was a great player? 1952 01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:34,320 Speaker 5: No? 1953 01:39:34,520 --> 01:39:35,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a great player. 1954 01:39:36,160 --> 01:39:40,760 Speaker 3: And unfortunately this is where and I like Scotty, but 1955 01:39:40,800 --> 01:39:43,479 Speaker 3: he loses some credibility with the argument because it sounds 1956 01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:44,400 Speaker 3: like an ax to grind. 1957 01:39:44,600 --> 01:39:47,559 Speaker 1: It doesn't totally Can we hear that sound by one 1958 01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:49,880 Speaker 1: more time? John Ramos? I think he called him terrible. 1959 01:39:50,160 --> 01:39:52,960 Speaker 12: Vron would be the greatest statistical guy to ever play 1960 01:39:53,000 --> 01:39:57,240 Speaker 12: the game of basketball, and there's no comparison to him none. 1961 01:39:57,520 --> 01:39:59,840 Speaker 12: So does that make him the greatest player to have 1962 01:39:59,880 --> 01:40:02,480 Speaker 12: a play the game? I lead it out for debatings 1963 01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:04,880 Speaker 12: because I don't believe that there's a great player because 1964 01:40:04,920 --> 01:40:07,519 Speaker 12: our game is a team game and one player can't 1965 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:10,040 Speaker 12: do it. Like I've seen Michael Jordan play before I 1966 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:12,639 Speaker 12: came to play with the Bulls. You guys seen him play. 1967 01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:15,599 Speaker 12: He's a horrible player. He was horrible to play with. 1968 01:40:15,880 --> 01:40:18,799 Speaker 12: He was all one on one. He's shooting bad shots, 1969 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:22,280 Speaker 12: and all of a sudden we become a team and 1970 01:40:22,320 --> 01:40:25,320 Speaker 12: we start winning everybody forgot who he was. 1971 01:40:26,479 --> 01:40:29,040 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I mean again, that's over the top. 1972 01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:34,160 Speaker 1: Horrible is a strong word. Terrible in the same sentence 1973 01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:39,519 Speaker 1: as Michael Jordan. Look again, I believe in a lot 1974 01:40:39,560 --> 01:40:41,639 Speaker 1: of what he said there, because it is a team sport. 1975 01:40:41,760 --> 01:40:46,080 Speaker 1: But but that's it's just a mix mischaracterization and it 1976 01:40:46,200 --> 01:40:50,599 Speaker 1: is a revision of history that just doesn't really resonate 1977 01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:54,040 Speaker 1: at all. Again, do I like him as a as 1978 01:40:54,080 --> 01:40:57,320 Speaker 1: an athlete or as a former athlete. Scottie Pippen, to me, 1979 01:40:57,600 --> 01:41:01,200 Speaker 1: was one of the greatest number twos in basketball history, 1980 01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:04,479 Speaker 1: if not the best. I mean, name a guy who 1981 01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:10,320 Speaker 1: waited so patiently under the warm wing of a great 1982 01:41:10,520 --> 01:41:15,240 Speaker 1: like Jordan for his opportunity to shine. He finally got it, 1983 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:19,519 Speaker 1: and you know, it felt like he kind of needed 1984 01:41:19,520 --> 01:41:22,200 Speaker 1: a Jordan. He needed to be Robin to a Batman, 1985 01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:26,000 Speaker 1: which no shade, He's a champion too. He was a 1986 01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:28,479 Speaker 1: part of those teams also, you know, the same way. 1987 01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:31,519 Speaker 1: You know, the Bulls needed a Steve Kerr, They needed 1988 01:41:31,520 --> 01:41:34,080 Speaker 1: a Luke Longley, they needed a Tony Kuk coach, they 1989 01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:37,240 Speaker 1: needed a Horace Graham. They needed role players too to 1990 01:41:37,320 --> 01:41:40,599 Speaker 1: get those championships. You don't get it done on your 1991 01:41:40,600 --> 01:41:44,679 Speaker 1: own as a team. But individually, was Michael Jordan ever 1992 01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:50,040 Speaker 1: horrible in the NBA? Absolutely, one hundred percent. Not. It's 1993 01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:53,200 Speaker 1: a false statement. It makes no sense to even humor it. Well, 1994 01:41:53,240 --> 01:41:56,000 Speaker 1: if you weren't really part of what happened with Jordan 1995 01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:58,519 Speaker 1: in the nineties, you have to go back to the 1996 01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:02,600 Speaker 1: eighties with Bird and Man, it was still Lakers Celtics. 1997 01:42:04,400 --> 01:42:05,760 Speaker 2: It was still Lakers Celtics. 1998 01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:08,640 Speaker 1: Obviously, the spotlight was on the two best players on 1999 01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:11,200 Speaker 1: the court. Of course, they were surrounded by other guys 2000 01:42:11,200 --> 01:42:14,840 Speaker 1: that are all in the Hall of Fame, but it 2001 01:42:14,880 --> 01:42:18,080 Speaker 1: was still Lakers Celtics in those days. Oh yeah, And 2002 01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:22,840 Speaker 1: that changed. It was no longer the Bulls. It was 2003 01:42:22,840 --> 01:42:26,000 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan, and it changed the whole dynamic. It's something 2004 01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:28,639 Speaker 1: that you know, Kobe Bryant grew up watching, and that's 2005 01:42:28,680 --> 01:42:32,200 Speaker 1: why Kobe had a very similar attitude. You know, I 2006 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:35,240 Speaker 1: used to sit there and remind Kobe again, you win, 2007 01:42:35,880 --> 01:42:38,320 Speaker 1: I've won five championships. No, you were part of five 2008 01:42:38,360 --> 01:42:41,160 Speaker 1: teams that won championships. You won an MVP, let the 2009 01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:43,160 Speaker 1: league at scoring, you did this, you did this, did this, 2010 01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:48,040 Speaker 1: but you did not win five championships five teams you 2011 01:42:48,040 --> 01:42:50,439 Speaker 1: were part of, and yes, you were the best player 2012 01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:53,880 Speaker 1: on those teams or one of the best players won championships. 2013 01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:59,280 Speaker 1: Championships are not an individual honor in team sports. No, 2014 01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 1: they're not. They're not. 2015 01:43:00,760 --> 01:43:04,479 Speaker 3: And as much as we love to say Lebron has 2016 01:43:04,600 --> 01:43:08,080 Speaker 3: won four titles and he's lost six finals, right right, 2017 01:43:08,120 --> 01:43:11,840 Speaker 3: but I'm saying I'm focusing on the titles he won. 2018 01:43:12,320 --> 01:43:15,719 Speaker 3: It's like, yes, that is true. Lebron won those titles 2019 01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:20,200 Speaker 3: with the Cleveland Cavaliers, who had all stars on that roster, 2020 01:43:20,400 --> 01:43:24,439 Speaker 3: Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love with the Miami Heat who 2021 01:43:24,479 --> 01:43:28,160 Speaker 3: had all stars on that roster, Chris Bosh, Dwayne Wade 2022 01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:31,800 Speaker 3: with the Los Angeles Likers during a pandemic in the 2023 01:43:31,800 --> 01:43:34,759 Speaker 3: wide World of Disney down there in Orlando in the bubble, 2024 01:43:35,120 --> 01:43:38,680 Speaker 3: but with Anthony Davis, who is an all Star. You 2025 01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:41,240 Speaker 3: need to have a surrounding cast in order to win. 2026 01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:44,000 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if you're the second best player of 2027 01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:47,040 Speaker 3: all time, the greatest player of all time, or somewhere 2028 01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:49,559 Speaker 3: further down the list. You need to have a team 2029 01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:51,879 Speaker 3: around you to get the job done. So from that standpoint, 2030 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,200 Speaker 3: I completely agree with what Scottie Pippens saying basically every 2031 01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:57,800 Speaker 3: single other word uttered you have to throw away and 2032 01:43:57,840 --> 01:44:00,160 Speaker 3: it just sounds like sour gray. 2033 01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:02,639 Speaker 1: Well and going all the way back to Bill Russell, 2034 01:44:02,640 --> 01:44:03,320 Speaker 1: Wilt Chamberlain. 2035 01:44:03,560 --> 01:44:04,439 Speaker 2: Will Chamberlain was. 2036 01:44:04,360 --> 01:44:07,080 Speaker 1: A better player than Bill Russell. There's no question he 2037 01:44:07,160 --> 01:44:09,559 Speaker 1: was a better player. Even Bill Russell conceded that Will 2038 01:44:09,680 --> 01:44:12,439 Speaker 1: was a much better player. It's that Bill Russell was 2039 01:44:12,479 --> 01:44:15,120 Speaker 1: a team guy and had much better teams and that's 2040 01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:18,439 Speaker 1: why they won championships, and somehow it diminished the legacy 2041 01:44:18,479 --> 01:44:22,320 Speaker 1: of Will Chamberlin. It's ridiculous, yep, Well Chamberlain was a 2042 01:44:22,720 --> 01:44:28,439 Speaker 1: much better player than Bill Russell. It wasn't even close. 2043 01:44:29,120 --> 01:44:31,519 Speaker 1: But Bill Russell won eleven rings, part of great teams 2044 01:44:31,520 --> 01:44:33,960 Speaker 1: and he was a key component for them. All right, 2045 01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:38,040 Speaker 1: let's find out what is trending right now? Mind Sea Bellagio, 2046 01:44:38,160 --> 01:44:40,519 Speaker 1: So are you feeling a little bit better? A little 2047 01:44:40,800 --> 01:44:42,639 Speaker 1: egg plant high going on? 2048 01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:43,719 Speaker 10: So so good? 2049 01:44:43,920 --> 01:44:46,680 Speaker 9: And watching this Indy five hundred makes me never want 2050 01:44:46,680 --> 01:44:49,800 Speaker 9: to drive again. So it's under caution. There was a 2051 01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:50,880 Speaker 9: nasty wreck. 2052 01:44:51,240 --> 01:44:54,280 Speaker 2: I saw that guy was uncompletely. 2053 01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:55,720 Speaker 10: Upside down, But it wasn't even really his fault. He 2054 01:44:55,760 --> 01:44:57,240 Speaker 10: was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. 2055 01:44:57,360 --> 01:45:02,120 Speaker 1: I had a in camera car correct car camera, Yes, 2056 01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:03,400 Speaker 1: and he was just sort of relaxed. 2057 01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:04,280 Speaker 10: He yeah. 2058 01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:07,679 Speaker 9: I was very impressed at how relaxed he looked. 2059 01:45:07,800 --> 01:45:10,160 Speaker 10: It was Felix Rosenquis. He was a driver. 2060 01:45:10,280 --> 01:45:12,599 Speaker 9: He hit the wall and as he tried to gain control, 2061 01:45:12,840 --> 01:45:15,559 Speaker 9: he kind of hit him a little bit. And that's 2062 01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:19,040 Speaker 9: Kyle Kirkwood who was upside down. His tire went flying 2063 01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:21,559 Speaker 9: into the stands. I don't know if it hit someone, 2064 01:45:21,800 --> 01:45:24,120 Speaker 9: but it went flying into the stands. He ended up 2065 01:45:24,200 --> 01:45:27,680 Speaker 9: upside down in the car. They're still under caution or 2066 01:45:27,840 --> 01:45:30,720 Speaker 9: officially got going. It officially got going, Yes, now they're 2067 01:45:30,720 --> 01:45:31,240 Speaker 9: back in it. 2068 01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:31,559 Speaker 1: Now. 2069 01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:34,680 Speaker 3: You are an update anchor and have been doing this 2070 01:45:34,760 --> 01:45:36,600 Speaker 3: for a very long time, so I expect you to 2071 01:45:36,600 --> 01:45:38,280 Speaker 3: be an expert on all things Indy Car. 2072 01:45:39,560 --> 01:45:40,519 Speaker 1: I am absolutely not. 2073 01:45:41,320 --> 01:45:42,400 Speaker 10: We're lucky I got that out. 2074 01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:45,679 Speaker 1: When a tire, When a tire bounces from the track 2075 01:45:45,880 --> 01:45:49,920 Speaker 1: into the stands, do the fans get to keep the 2076 01:45:49,960 --> 01:45:50,920 Speaker 1: tire like a foul ball? 2077 01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:52,639 Speaker 10: That is a really good question. 2078 01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:55,680 Speaker 9: I think this went so far beyond the fans, and 2079 01:45:55,720 --> 01:45:56,880 Speaker 9: I don't think anyone got it. 2080 01:45:56,920 --> 01:45:59,439 Speaker 10: That's how far I looked like it was flying. But 2081 01:45:59,760 --> 01:46:01,400 Speaker 10: I that would be a good. 2082 01:46:01,120 --> 01:46:03,519 Speaker 1: Put that again. I mean when Bonds hit one into the. 2083 01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:04,559 Speaker 10: Bay, you gotta run out. 2084 01:46:04,600 --> 01:46:06,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, like if you're out a kayaker, if you were 2085 01:46:06,720 --> 01:46:09,160 Speaker 1: a good swimmer, you got to keep that baseball right. 2086 01:46:09,200 --> 01:46:10,400 Speaker 1: So was it first to touch it? 2087 01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 9: Yes, that's what I'm gonna say. I'm making up rowls, 2088 01:46:12,400 --> 01:46:13,400 Speaker 9: but that's what I'm gonna say. 2089 01:46:13,520 --> 01:46:15,200 Speaker 10: Ryan Hunter rays in the lead. 2090 01:46:15,280 --> 01:46:18,599 Speaker 9: It's officially underway twelve laps to go in the Indy 2091 01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:23,320 Speaker 9: five hundred the Yankees. They scored eight no seven runs 2092 01:46:23,360 --> 01:46:25,800 Speaker 9: in the third inning.

They're 2109 01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:03,840 Speaker 9: about to start the fifth inning, Nationals taking down the 2110 01:47:03,880 --> 01:47:06,320 Speaker 9: Royals to zero top of the sixth.

And yes, the Rays 2114 01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:17,040 Speaker 9: they won another one. They beat the Dodgers eleven to ten. 2115 01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:21,040 Speaker 9: The Dodgers went through six pitchers in this game after 2116 01:47:21,080 --> 01:47:23,160 Speaker 9: the starter, Gavin Stone, gave up seven runs in the 2117 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:26,920 Speaker 9: first two innings. The Rays had one home run Isaac Baredez, 2118 01:47:26,960 --> 01:47:30,639 Speaker 9: while the Dodgers had five home runs, and it didn't matter. 2119 01:47:30,920 --> 01:47:32,360 Speaker 10: They still lost eleven to ten. 2120 01:47:33,439 --> 01:47:37,639 Speaker 1: But Trace Thompson brokes thirty nine streak going three for three, 2121 01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:39,760 Speaker 1: will a walk today, Yes to any hit a home 2122 01:47:40,040 --> 01:47:43,840 Speaker 1: longus hitless streaks and sweat so in one hundred and 2123 01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:46,480 Speaker 1: fourteen years in Dodger's sister come lord. 2124 01:47:46,320 --> 01:47:48,479 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, that's that's not something you want to be 2125 01:47:48,560 --> 01:47:48,920 Speaker 10: known for all. 2126 01:47:49,120 --> 01:47:51,320 Speaker 1: Chris Davis of the Orioles set the all time record. 2127 01:47:51,360 --> 01:47:53,760 Speaker 1: Oh for fifty four.

It can be 2152 01:48:59,640 --> 01:49:02,519 Speaker 1: twists and turn to a lot of different ways. That's 2153 01:49:02,560 --> 01:49:05,280 Speaker 1: exactly what happened when he sort of was asked, you 2154 01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:07,240 Speaker 1: know what about next year, and he goes, well, I'm 2155 01:49:07,240 --> 01:49:09,360 Speaker 1: not sure about what kind of team we're going to have, 2156 01:49:09,960 --> 01:49:11,840 Speaker 1: and then he then he says, well, I got to 2157 01:49:11,880 --> 01:49:14,760 Speaker 1: think about my future in the game. And then you know, 2158 01:49:14,840 --> 01:49:17,160 Speaker 1: he even is sent once so far as to say, yeah, 2159 01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:19,559 Speaker 1: I might think about retirement. All right, there's a reason 2160 01:49:19,600 --> 01:49:21,880 Speaker 1: for this. One of them is he won't retire, not 2161 01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:24,800 Speaker 1: when you have literally one hundred million dollars waiting for 2162 01:49:24,840 --> 01:49:28,000 Speaker 1: you over the next two years, guaranteed by the way, 2163 01:49:28,080 --> 01:49:30,679 Speaker 1: for sure, a guaranteed deal and then a player option. 2164 01:49:31,320 --> 01:49:32,479 Speaker 2: So he's not going to do that. 2165 01:49:32,560 --> 01:49:34,680 Speaker 1: But I guess he did send the message out and 2166 01:49:34,720 --> 01:49:37,000 Speaker 1: made it clear that the only thing he keeps this 2167 01:49:37,040 --> 01:49:41,080 Speaker 1: guy playing is the opportunity to win more championships. And 2168 01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:43,400 Speaker 1: I think what he was trying to say was this, Yes, 2169 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:47,120 Speaker 1: we made improvements. Obviously, we improved this roster to take 2170 01:49:47,200 --> 01:49:49,639 Speaker 1: us from on the outside looking in to even get 2171 01:49:49,680 --> 01:49:52,759 Speaker 1: in the playoffs all the way to the Western Conference Finals. 2172 01:49:52,800 --> 01:49:55,840 Speaker 1: But we're still not good enough. So when he says 2173 01:49:56,040 --> 01:49:59,519 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that you know, he basically 2174 01:49:59,560 --> 01:50:02,439 Speaker 1: indicated I want to look at what we have on 2175 01:50:02,479 --> 01:50:06,519 Speaker 1: this roster before I have any commitment moving forward. So 2176 01:50:07,240 --> 01:50:10,160 Speaker 1: the big question is this, we know that Austin Reeves 2177 01:50:11,120 --> 01:50:15,759 Speaker 1: emerges a viable piece in the puzzle for the Lakers. Yeah, 2178 01:50:15,800 --> 01:50:17,760 Speaker 1: but is somebody going to offer him a Jordan Poole 2179 01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:18,720 Speaker 1: contract out there? 2180 01:50:19,080 --> 01:50:20,439 Speaker 2: Because they can match the offer? 2181 01:50:20,479 --> 01:50:23,280 Speaker 1: But if somebody offers him twenty million a year, are 2182 01:50:23,280 --> 01:50:26,760 Speaker 1: they are they gonna match that for Austin Reeves? How 2183 01:50:26,840 --> 01:50:29,080 Speaker 1: much money you gonna pay for Hatchamura? And then there, 2184 01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:32,639 Speaker 1: of course, is the situation with Kyrie Irving, who would, 2185 01:50:32,680 --> 01:50:36,800 Speaker 1: by the way, have to accept tremendous pay cut in 2186 01:50:36,920 --> 01:50:39,080 Speaker 1: order to fit in with the Lakers, which I don't 2187 01:50:39,080 --> 01:50:40,920 Speaker 1: think is going to happen. So what do you make 2188 01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:45,559 Speaker 1: of what we're gonna see next season from Lebron James? Well, 2189 01:50:45,920 --> 01:50:51,719 Speaker 1: first and foremost, what an unbelievably brilliant line to finish 2190 01:50:51,800 --> 01:50:56,920 Speaker 1: up that press conference? What stuns me is how well 2191 01:50:56,960 --> 01:50:59,880 Speaker 1: he's been able to keep the spotlight on him regardless 2192 01:50:59,880 --> 01:51:02,360 Speaker 1: of what's happening in his career. Because, let's face it, 2193 01:51:02,920 --> 01:51:08,040 Speaker 1: this was an underwhelming Lakers year. Lebron, James, and Anthony Davis, 2194 01:51:08,320 --> 01:51:11,640 Speaker 1: they barely saw the court together. They finally got on 2195 01:51:11,720 --> 01:51:14,120 Speaker 1: a good run after the trade deadline. A lot of 2196 01:51:14,120 --> 01:51:16,000 Speaker 1: those role players, like you mentioned. 2197 01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:20,360 Speaker 3: Achimora Reeves stepped up, and Reeves especially has become an 2198 01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:24,240 Speaker 3: outstanding starting player in the NBA. I mean, that's kind 2199 01:51:24,240 --> 01:51:27,320 Speaker 3: of out of nowhere, But I digress to just talk. 2200 01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:31,320 Speaker 3: I mean, the question asked to Lebron wasn't even regarding 2201 01:51:31,360 --> 01:51:33,800 Speaker 3: his future in the NBA. He knew it was the 2202 01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:36,320 Speaker 3: last question. You want to talk about taking control of 2203 01:51:36,320 --> 01:51:39,120 Speaker 3: the narrative. We were just talking Pip and Jordan. Lebron 2204 01:51:39,360 --> 01:51:43,280 Speaker 3: never relinquished his control of the narrative. He was asked 2205 01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:47,800 Speaker 3: something about the season or about the Nuggets, like he 2206 01:51:47,920 --> 01:51:51,880 Speaker 3: waxed poetic a little bit about the content of the question. 2207 01:51:51,880 --> 01:51:54,320 Speaker 1: What sort of the idea is this a stepping stone 2208 01:51:54,320 --> 01:51:55,519 Speaker 1: to something better next season? 2209 01:51:55,520 --> 01:51:57,880 Speaker 3: And he starts talking about himself and his future and 2210 01:51:58,240 --> 01:52:00,120 Speaker 3: he's got a lot to think about in terms of 2211 01:52:00,120 --> 01:52:01,160 Speaker 3: his basketball career. 2212 01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:05,160 Speaker 1: It's like nobody asked you about your individual future. Nobody did. 2213 01:52:05,720 --> 01:52:08,040 Speaker 1: But he wanted to take it there. He wanted to 2214 01:52:08,080 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 1: make sure, especially since the Nuggets have zero budget. I'm sorry, Jokic, 2215 01:52:12,080 --> 01:52:15,640 Speaker 1: you are wonderful and uh, the best player in the 2216 01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:21,080 Speaker 1: league at this point, especially this postseason. But the Denver 2217 01:52:21,160 --> 01:52:23,799 Speaker 1: Nuggets are a snoozefest. That team. 2218 01:52:23,920 --> 01:52:26,479 Speaker 3: I mean, it's big fundamentals. It's like, get the big 2219 01:52:26,520 --> 01:52:28,320 Speaker 3: man the ball and the painter at the top of 2220 01:52:28,400 --> 01:52:30,519 Speaker 3: the key, and he's going to find the open man. Now, 2221 01:52:30,640 --> 01:52:32,519 Speaker 3: don't get me wrong. For the city of Denver, I'm 2222 01:52:32,520 --> 01:52:35,439 Speaker 3: sure they're on fire right now. This franchise has never 2223 01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:39,320 Speaker 3: had a finals run in their forty seven years of existence. Excitement, excitement, 2224 01:52:39,520 --> 01:52:41,919 Speaker 3: But for the rest of us, are we really enthused 2225 01:52:41,960 --> 01:52:42,759 Speaker 3: about Jokic? 2226 01:52:43,080 --> 01:52:45,000 Speaker 1: Well, against you, I want to get to Denver, but 2227 01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,120 Speaker 1: I wanted to keep it on Len at first second 2228 01:52:47,120 --> 01:52:49,160 Speaker 1: here because but that's like one other copy. That's what 2229 01:52:49,280 --> 01:52:52,880 Speaker 1: he did. He kept it about Lebron, which was brilliant. 2230 01:52:53,080 --> 01:52:56,360 Speaker 1: He understood the room. Nobody wants to talk Denver. Everybody 2231 01:52:56,360 --> 01:52:58,840 Speaker 1: wanted to talk Lakers, so he let everybody do it 2232 01:52:58,880 --> 01:53:02,839 Speaker 1: for three days following getting bounced from the Western Conference Finals, 2233 01:53:02,800 --> 01:53:04,639 Speaker 1: and we're going to continue to talk about it because 2234 01:53:04,640 --> 01:53:06,360 Speaker 1: one of the comments he made that I think a 2235 01:53:06,400 --> 01:53:08,599 Speaker 1: lot of people passed over that to me was the 2236 01:53:08,680 --> 01:53:13,120 Speaker 1: real eyebrow razor was when he said, yeah, I still 2237 01:53:13,200 --> 01:53:15,240 Speaker 1: I still am one of the best ninety to ninety 2238 01:53:15,240 --> 01:53:18,080 Speaker 1: five percent in the league. And I'm like, you've been 2239 01:53:18,120 --> 01:53:20,719 Speaker 1: better than one hundred percent of the league for most 2240 01:53:20,760 --> 01:53:25,360 Speaker 1: of your career, one hundred percent better than one hundred 2241 01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:27,200 Speaker 1: percent of the players in the league. With all due 2242 01:53:27,240 --> 01:53:30,200 Speaker 1: respect that Kevin Durant and Steph Curry, Lebron has never 2243 01:53:30,439 --> 01:53:34,360 Speaker 1: been anything other than the best player in the NBA 2244 01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:37,559 Speaker 1: at any point of his career, at least after maybe 2245 01:53:37,600 --> 01:53:39,679 Speaker 1: his first two or three years in the league. Yeah, 2246 01:53:40,160 --> 01:53:41,920 Speaker 1: So for him to come out and say I'm still 2247 01:53:41,920 --> 01:53:44,439 Speaker 1: better than ninety to ninety five percent of the league, 2248 01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:47,200 Speaker 1: is that okay by him? I mean, in other words, 2249 01:53:47,400 --> 01:53:50,280 Speaker 1: some people can I you know, accept the fact that, 2250 01:53:50,320 --> 01:53:52,360 Speaker 1: all right, I'm getting older, I can't do what I 2251 01:53:52,439 --> 01:53:52,880 Speaker 1: used to do. 2252 01:53:53,479 --> 01:53:55,479 Speaker 2: You know, I'm sort of on the down side. I 2253 01:53:55,520 --> 01:53:56,200 Speaker 2: can live with that. 2254 01:53:56,520 --> 01:54:01,000 Speaker 1: Others can't if they can't be still the dominant player 2255 01:54:01,040 --> 01:54:04,759 Speaker 1: when you've been that guy, and that's rarefied here. 2256 01:54:04,880 --> 01:54:06,679 Speaker 2: Very few have ever been that guy. 2257 01:54:07,400 --> 01:54:09,960 Speaker 1: By the way, Will Chamberlain he retired at the top 2258 01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:12,479 Speaker 1: of his game, Yeah he I mean Will could have 2259 01:54:12,520 --> 01:54:16,880 Speaker 1: played Believe me, Will could have played another ten years easy. 2260 01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:19,760 Speaker 3: Well, and we've seen it in other sports. Barry Sanders 2261 01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:24,160 Speaker 3: walked away early from the NFL aw. Jim Brown, Jim Brown, 2262 01:54:24,280 --> 01:54:27,360 Speaker 3: I mean, there's Sandy Kofax top of his career. It's 2263 01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:30,559 Speaker 3: just it's one of those things where if you are 2264 01:54:30,600 --> 01:54:33,880 Speaker 3: an aging star, at some point you need to you 2265 01:54:33,960 --> 01:54:36,640 Speaker 3: need to become okay with the fact that somebody's gonna 2266 01:54:36,640 --> 01:54:38,880 Speaker 3: come along better than you. They potentially could be on 2267 01:54:38,920 --> 01:54:41,880 Speaker 3: your team. Look, Anthony Davis, depending on the night, is 2268 01:54:41,920 --> 01:54:44,840 Speaker 3: a much better player than Lebron James at this point 2269 01:54:44,840 --> 01:54:45,560 Speaker 3: in their careers. 2270 01:54:46,120 --> 01:54:46,840 Speaker 1: It's it. 2271 01:54:47,040 --> 01:54:52,200 Speaker 3: But in order to relinquish that title as being the 2272 01:54:52,240 --> 01:54:56,400 Speaker 3: best or the greatest right now and trade it in 2273 01:54:56,480 --> 01:54:59,440 Speaker 3: for more championships, if you could eat that humble pie, 2274 01:55:00,120 --> 01:55:03,600 Speaker 3: well you're gonna be regarded as that as even better 2275 01:55:03,640 --> 01:55:05,600 Speaker 3: than maybe a word down the stretch of your career. 2276 01:55:05,800 --> 01:55:09,320 Speaker 3: It's something that you know, and I know, I'm I 2277 01:55:09,320 --> 01:55:12,200 Speaker 3: don't I don't feel right speaking ill of the dead, 2278 01:55:12,240 --> 01:55:15,920 Speaker 3: but that Kobe Bryant couldn't relinquish no. I mean he 2279 01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:19,040 Speaker 3: during the end of his career with the Lakers, he 2280 01:55:19,120 --> 01:55:21,680 Speaker 3: was holding on tight to something that no longer existed. 2281 01:55:22,080 --> 01:55:24,960 Speaker 1: The last game, by the way, that sixty point game 2282 01:55:25,040 --> 01:55:28,120 Speaker 1: is last game as a Laker, capped off a seventeen 2283 01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:30,480 Speaker 1: and sixty five season for that team. I mean, it was. 2284 01:55:30,880 --> 01:55:33,480 Speaker 2: It was dreadful to watch. The Lakers were. 2285 01:55:33,480 --> 01:55:36,640 Speaker 1: Spiraling seventeen and sixty five his last year, and it's 2286 01:55:36,640 --> 01:55:39,000 Speaker 1: because part of the reason was he was taking so 2287 01:55:39,080 --> 01:55:40,840 Speaker 1: much of the salary. The other part of it was 2288 01:55:41,280 --> 01:55:43,440 Speaker 1: who really wanted to play with Kobe at that point? 2289 01:55:43,520 --> 01:55:47,400 Speaker 1: Who wanted to help build around Kobe at that point? 2290 01:55:47,560 --> 01:55:50,960 Speaker 1: Lebron still has it, you know, and it's I think 2291 01:55:51,080 --> 01:55:54,240 Speaker 1: part of it is the humility to understand what he 2292 01:55:54,320 --> 01:55:57,080 Speaker 1: can't do anymore, not what he can do all right. 2293 01:55:57,120 --> 01:55:59,720 Speaker 1: The Denver Nuggets are waiting and waiting and waiting and 2294 01:55:59,760 --> 01:56:01,960 Speaker 1: wait to find out who they're gonna play in the 2295 01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:07,000 Speaker 1: NBA Finals. They'll find out tomorrow, ten days off from 2296 01:56:07,040 --> 01:56:09,520 Speaker 1: their last game to the start of the Finals on Thursday. 2297 01:56:09,560 --> 01:56:11,600 Speaker 1: What does that mean for the team. We'll tell you. 2298 01:56:11,640 --> 01:56:16,160 Speaker 1: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin, rich Orburger, Fox 2299 01:56:16,160 --> 01:56:20,080 Speaker 1: Sports Sunday Live from the tay Iraq dot Com studios. 2300 01:56:22,720 --> 01:56:24,920 Speaker 1: Is he any five hundred over? Or is they're still 2301 01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:27,120 Speaker 1: zooming around the track here? I keep every time I 2302 01:56:27,160 --> 01:56:29,879 Speaker 1: look up, somebody's hitting the wall. Yeah, there's another crash. 2303 01:56:29,960 --> 01:56:31,040 Speaker 2: Another crash. 2304 01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:35,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, it's not unprecedented for this race 2305 01:56:35,160 --> 01:56:38,200 Speaker 1: to in on yellow. In other words, everyone has to 2306 01:56:38,240 --> 01:56:41,120 Speaker 1: hold their position and they just basically crawl across the 2307 01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:42,800 Speaker 1: finish line and that's it. 2308 01:56:42,800 --> 01:56:45,840 Speaker 3: It's two hundred laps. Oh my gosh. Yeah, it was 2309 01:56:45,880 --> 01:56:48,400 Speaker 3: a crash involving two cars. I don't know the names 2310 01:56:48,400 --> 01:56:49,040 Speaker 3: of the drivers. 2311 01:56:49,080 --> 01:56:51,839 Speaker 1: It's never good when one car is on top of another. Yeah, 2312 01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:56,000 Speaker 1: that's a bad sign. Boy. This was actually a second crash. Yeah, 2313 01:56:56,040 --> 01:56:57,880 Speaker 1: this is a different crash than I just saw. 2314 01:56:58,000 --> 01:56:58,080 Speaker 6: No. 2315 01:56:58,200 --> 01:57:01,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a Kirkwood and then you know this 2316 01:57:01,800 --> 01:57:03,640 Speaker 3: is another No. No, I know that he was sliding 2317 01:57:03,680 --> 01:57:05,760 Speaker 3: on his head as wheel went into the stats. But 2318 01:57:05,920 --> 01:57:07,800 Speaker 3: then there was a car that went into the wall. 2319 01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:10,120 Speaker 3: Another car spun out and went into the wall and 2320 01:57:10,160 --> 01:57:12,760 Speaker 3: then crashed into the original car spun out and went 2321 01:57:12,800 --> 01:57:13,360 Speaker 3: into the wall. 2322 01:57:13,840 --> 01:57:16,600 Speaker 2: Okay, so this race is a mess. 2323 01:57:16,640 --> 01:57:20,800 Speaker 1: The track is littered with car parts, So the idea 2324 01:57:20,800 --> 01:57:23,440 Speaker 1: they're going to get any exciting there's six laps to go. 2325 01:57:24,680 --> 01:57:26,480 Speaker 1: My guess they're just gonna call it a day. I 2326 01:57:26,480 --> 01:57:29,040 Speaker 1: don't know how they're we go to restart this thing. 2327 01:57:29,440 --> 01:57:32,600 Speaker 1: So we got that going on. Meanwhile, the Denver Nuggets 2328 01:57:32,640 --> 01:57:35,960 Speaker 1: are sitting and sitting and sitting. You know, potentially, when 2329 01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:39,200 Speaker 1: we were looking back to last Tuesday, Rich when the 2330 01:57:39,280 --> 01:57:42,000 Speaker 1: Heat could have closed out their series and four straight, 2331 01:57:42,480 --> 01:57:44,920 Speaker 1: I was thinking of, like, you realize we could literally 2332 01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:49,680 Speaker 1: have nine days off from the NBA no games. It's 2333 01:57:49,680 --> 01:57:54,080 Speaker 1: a hardcore first game NBA Finals June first, Thursday. Yep, 2334 01:57:54,800 --> 01:57:56,720 Speaker 1: I was thinking I was going to show up this weekend, like, 2335 01:57:56,840 --> 01:57:59,760 Speaker 1: all right, we haven't seen NBA basketball for four days, 2336 01:58:00,000 --> 01:58:01,360 Speaker 1: and we're still not going to see it for another 2337 01:58:01,440 --> 01:58:03,440 Speaker 1: five as does anybody remember the NBA. 2338 01:58:03,640 --> 01:58:06,040 Speaker 3: Well, this is the problem that Major League Baseball and 2339 01:58:06,120 --> 01:58:09,440 Speaker 3: the NBA both have in their postseason. They schedule these 2340 01:58:09,480 --> 01:58:12,680 Speaker 3: things obviously long in advance, and they want to build 2341 01:58:12,760 --> 01:58:18,400 Speaker 3: up some I guess drama or storylines or intrigue or whatever. 2342 01:58:18,680 --> 01:58:21,080 Speaker 1: But you have the possibility of short series in the 2343 01:58:21,080 --> 01:58:23,040 Speaker 1: conference finals or the league finals. 2344 01:58:23,120 --> 01:58:25,040 Speaker 2: All right, I want to get to this nugget situation. 2345 01:58:25,200 --> 01:58:28,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, So the famous story that Michael Thompson shared with 2346 01:58:28,680 --> 01:58:31,720 Speaker 1: me back in nineteen eighty nine. The Lakers are trying 2347 01:58:31,760 --> 01:58:34,480 Speaker 1: to three peat. In fact, pat Riley got the trademark 2348 01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:38,360 Speaker 1: on the three peat line. And they swept not just 2349 01:58:38,480 --> 01:58:40,880 Speaker 1: the conference finals, they swept all three series they had 2350 01:58:40,880 --> 01:58:43,360 Speaker 1: been in. First round was three out of five, four 2351 01:58:43,400 --> 01:58:44,960 Speaker 1: out of seven, four out of seven. They were eleven 2352 01:58:45,000 --> 01:58:48,560 Speaker 1: to zero. Yep. And they had a long layoff between 2353 01:58:48,560 --> 01:58:52,320 Speaker 1: the conference finals and the NBA Finals, And as Michael 2354 01:58:52,400 --> 01:58:55,760 Speaker 1: told me, part of that team, Riley decided to make 2355 01:58:55,760 --> 01:58:57,800 Speaker 1: sure the team was sharp. He was going to restart 2356 01:58:57,840 --> 01:59:02,440 Speaker 1: training camp. It was like training camp all over again. 2357 01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:04,840 Speaker 1: And by the time they got to the finals against 2358 01:59:04,880 --> 01:59:08,720 Speaker 1: the Pistons, guess what, Magic got hurt. Byron got hurt. 2359 01:59:09,000 --> 01:59:11,160 Speaker 1: They were banged up, and they ended up getting swept 2360 01:59:11,200 --> 01:59:15,320 Speaker 1: in the finals. So, from alone the coach of the Nuggets, 2361 01:59:15,800 --> 01:59:20,080 Speaker 1: how do you handle a ten day layoff where the 2362 01:59:20,120 --> 01:59:22,080 Speaker 1: team you're facing is only going to be off for 2363 01:59:22,080 --> 01:59:25,280 Speaker 1: a couple of days because they played it tomorrow, they'll 2364 01:59:25,280 --> 01:59:27,280 Speaker 1: be off a couple of days and play on Thursday. 2365 01:59:27,760 --> 01:59:30,800 Speaker 1: How do you keep your team sharp, take advantage of 2366 01:59:30,840 --> 01:59:34,040 Speaker 1: the rest. What does he have to do? Well? 2367 01:59:34,200 --> 01:59:38,280 Speaker 3: The Denver Nuggets, they weren't slouches after the All Star break, 2368 01:59:39,520 --> 01:59:41,600 Speaker 3: so you know, I'm not saying it's as long as 2369 01:59:41,640 --> 01:59:44,040 Speaker 3: a break, but they were twelve and eleven, so they 2370 01:59:44,080 --> 01:59:47,320 Speaker 3: had a winning record. I mean, I don't know exactly 2371 01:59:47,360 --> 01:59:50,960 Speaker 3: what their record looked like falling or following the break. 2372 01:59:51,000 --> 01:59:53,040 Speaker 1: If they well, they didn't have to play a lot 2373 01:59:53,080 --> 01:59:54,920 Speaker 1: because they knew they had the number one seed. Rep. 2374 01:59:54,920 --> 01:59:58,080 Speaker 3: I'm looking at her right now, let's see. Yeah, after 2375 01:59:58,120 --> 02:00:02,040 Speaker 3: the break, the Nuggets, they were never challenged for that 2376 02:00:02,080 --> 02:00:04,200 Speaker 3: one seed. They did rest guys down the stretch. They 2377 02:00:04,320 --> 02:00:07,680 Speaker 3: they won five out of the next six games following 2378 02:00:07,720 --> 02:00:08,120 Speaker 3: the break. 2379 02:00:08,240 --> 02:00:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. So I'm just saying this is a team that 2380 02:00:10,560 --> 02:00:13,080 Speaker 1: appears to have the ability days off with tea. I know, 2381 02:00:13,360 --> 02:00:16,920 Speaker 1: I know it's different, but I mean, longis it's the 2382 02:00:16,960 --> 02:00:19,040 Speaker 1: best we have to go off? All right? Well, on 2383 02:00:19,080 --> 02:00:20,680 Speaker 1: the other side, I want to get into this because 2384 02:00:20,720 --> 02:00:25,520 Speaker 1: we talk about you know, rest versus stained sharp, staying 2385 02:00:25,600 --> 02:00:28,320 Speaker 1: on top of your a game.

This is unbelievable. 2411 02:01:37,800 --> 02:01:40,320 Speaker 1: This is always the most dangerous part of any kind 2412 02:01:40,320 --> 02:01:42,600 Speaker 1: of races. The start of these races. There was one 2413 02:01:42,680 --> 02:01:46,320 Speaker 1: Indy five hundred where eleven cars a third of the field, 2414 02:01:46,320 --> 02:01:48,040 Speaker 1: thirty three cars in the field wiped out. 2415 02:01:47,880 --> 02:01:49,600 Speaker 2: On the first turn of the Star of the race. 2416 02:01:49,680 --> 02:01:52,840 Speaker 1: Wow. Where just you know, they're all side by side. 2417 02:01:53,000 --> 02:01:55,520 Speaker 1: And I can tell you this from my own race 2418 02:01:55,560 --> 02:01:58,080 Speaker 1: and experience in Long Beach and that celebrity race. The 2419 02:01:58,120 --> 02:01:59,760 Speaker 1: only time you're nervous is at the Star of the 2420 02:01:59,840 --> 02:02:02,920 Speaker 1: race because you're all bunched together. Oh okay, then you've 2421 02:02:02,960 --> 02:02:04,800 Speaker 1: got a game plan like you're you're like, all right, 2422 02:02:04,840 --> 02:02:07,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a jump on this guy. What you're 2423 02:02:07,160 --> 02:02:09,120 Speaker 1: not thinking is everyone seems to have a game plan, 2424 02:02:09,240 --> 02:02:11,800 Speaker 1: like I'm gonna go to that spot to try to 2425 02:02:11,800 --> 02:02:14,960 Speaker 1: get a better move, you know. And it's wild. I mean, 2426 02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:19,280 Speaker 1: when you're think about being on a freeway going eighty 2427 02:02:19,280 --> 02:02:23,120 Speaker 1: miles an hour but actually racing for position, like you 2428 02:02:23,120 --> 02:02:24,880 Speaker 1: feel like you're ready for that. If you've been on 2429 02:02:25,320 --> 02:02:29,000 Speaker 1: LA freeways as I have forever, but in an actual 2430 02:02:29,080 --> 02:02:31,640 Speaker 1: race situation. It is crazy. So I don't know what 2431 02:02:31,680 --> 02:02:33,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna do here at this point. I think they're 2432 02:02:33,720 --> 02:02:35,800 Speaker 1: gonna have to finish this race under yellow. I don't 2433 02:02:35,840 --> 02:02:37,919 Speaker 1: know if they'll be able to even get a restart. 2434 02:02:37,960 --> 02:02:41,160 Speaker 1: But right now, three laps to go in this year's 2435 02:02:41,200 --> 02:02:45,200 Speaker 1: Indy five hundred. We've had baseball going on today, wild 2436 02:02:45,280 --> 02:02:48,080 Speaker 1: game between the Rays and the Dodgers. Raised prevail by 2437 02:02:48,120 --> 02:02:51,320 Speaker 1: a score of eleven to ten. In that game, We've 2438 02:02:51,320 --> 02:02:54,480 Speaker 1: been watching the Yankees and the Podrays. Yankees are leading 2439 02:02:54,520 --> 02:02:57,640 Speaker 1: the Padres ninety six right now, By the way, I 2440 02:02:57,640 --> 02:03:00,360 Speaker 1: haven't asked you. What's the Padres buzz right now in 2441 02:03:00,400 --> 02:03:03,160 Speaker 1: San Diego. Oh, by the way, Fernando obviously a couple 2442 02:03:03,200 --> 02:03:06,560 Speaker 1: home runs at Yankee Stadium toss the bat the other day. 2443 02:03:06,880 --> 02:03:08,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's over ten home runs on the 2444 02:03:08,680 --> 02:03:11,120 Speaker 3: season now. I mean he's been a bright spot in 2445 02:03:11,280 --> 02:03:17,160 Speaker 3: otherwise a relatively poor to quite poor offensive season for 2446 02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:20,520 Speaker 3: the Padres. Look, they are awful with runners in scoring position. 2447 02:03:20,840 --> 02:03:23,800 Speaker 3: They just can't get hits. If I last I checked 2448 02:03:23,840 --> 02:03:25,360 Speaker 3: at the end of last week, they were still in 2449 02:03:25,600 --> 02:03:28,960 Speaker 3: dead last with runners in scoring positions. So the offense 2450 02:03:29,000 --> 02:03:31,680 Speaker 3: has been underwhelming, and this is an offense that's spending 2451 02:03:32,040 --> 02:03:34,640 Speaker 3: a billion dollars. You know, you think about the price 2452 02:03:34,720 --> 02:03:38,400 Speaker 3: tags on Xander Bogart's Machado, Fernando Tatis we just mentioned 2453 02:03:38,400 --> 02:03:41,800 Speaker 3: they re signed cronain Worth and then add Sodo's salary 2454 02:03:41,840 --> 02:03:45,000 Speaker 3: to it. They're spending a huge chunk of change on 2455 02:03:45,120 --> 02:03:49,120 Speaker 3: these players and they're just not producing. They really kind 2456 02:03:49,120 --> 02:03:51,920 Speaker 3: of are up against it record wise in the NL West. 2457 02:03:52,160 --> 02:03:54,960 Speaker 3: You know, the Dodgers doing what the Dodgers do. Seemingly 2458 02:03:55,000 --> 02:03:57,360 Speaker 3: every season, you're trailing. 2459 02:03:57,040 --> 02:03:58,560 Speaker 1: The Arizona Diamondbacks. 2460 02:03:58,760 --> 02:04:02,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're rifting further and further away from the NL 2461 02:04:02,040 --> 02:04:06,680 Speaker 3: West being a reality. The interesting thing though about this season, 2462 02:04:06,760 --> 02:04:10,200 Speaker 3: or most into interesting thing to my mind at least, 2463 02:04:10,600 --> 02:04:14,440 Speaker 3: is Fernando Tatist Junior has become a villain everywhere else 2464 02:04:14,680 --> 02:04:18,640 Speaker 3: other than San Diego cheter. He gets those chants in 2465 02:04:18,760 --> 02:04:22,600 Speaker 3: Yankee Stadium, he gets those chants everywhere, and for the 2466 02:04:22,640 --> 02:04:25,360 Speaker 3: rest of his career you'll hear from the fans, the 2467 02:04:25,360 --> 02:04:29,960 Speaker 3: bleacher creatures out there, cheater steroids. You know, everybody is 2468 02:04:30,040 --> 02:04:34,920 Speaker 3: just hackling him. He appears to be I mean, blissfully 2469 02:04:34,960 --> 02:04:38,840 Speaker 3: ignorant to or I shouldn't even say ignorant, he is 2470 02:04:38,880 --> 02:04:41,920 Speaker 3: actually leaning into it. There's a video of him kind 2471 02:04:41,960 --> 02:04:45,080 Speaker 3: of playing like a symphony conductor in the outfield, like 2472 02:04:45,160 --> 02:04:47,280 Speaker 3: egging on the fans to keep it going, and then 2473 02:04:47,320 --> 02:04:50,040 Speaker 3: he hits home runs. So there's a little bit of 2474 02:04:50,160 --> 02:04:53,480 Speaker 3: a like, I don't care, you know, it's rolling off 2475 02:04:53,480 --> 02:04:53,880 Speaker 3: his back. 2476 02:04:54,000 --> 02:04:56,000 Speaker 1: This is a franchise that's poked the bear a couple 2477 02:04:56,080 --> 02:04:58,520 Speaker 1: two times. They did it to the Dodgers after winning 2478 02:04:58,520 --> 02:05:02,880 Speaker 1: that first game at Peco with the crimeme of Kershaw, 2479 02:05:03,160 --> 02:05:05,200 Speaker 1: Have they lost to the Dodgers? Are they beating the 2480 02:05:05,200 --> 02:05:07,800 Speaker 1: Dodgers since no, No, And then they did that with 2481 02:05:07,920 --> 02:05:10,520 Speaker 1: the bat toss here against the Yankees. You come back 2482 02:05:10,560 --> 02:05:12,640 Speaker 1: and lose, and they're losing again today. 2483 02:05:12,440 --> 02:05:16,080 Speaker 3: He had a towering bat toss. Oh yeah, after that 2484 02:05:16,120 --> 02:05:21,480 Speaker 3: home run he hit. Yeah, look again. Therein lies the issue, 2485 02:05:21,560 --> 02:05:24,960 Speaker 3: right when you are this young and this talented and 2486 02:05:25,040 --> 02:05:28,160 Speaker 3: you make a mistake that will follow you the rest 2487 02:05:28,200 --> 02:05:30,800 Speaker 3: of your career. I mean to the point where JP Morosi, 2488 02:05:30,800 --> 02:05:34,000 Speaker 3: who joins us every Sunday here MLB Insider, Fox Sports Radio, 2489 02:05:34,800 --> 02:05:36,640 Speaker 3: we get an opportunity to talk to him about a 2490 02:05:36,680 --> 02:05:39,880 Speaker 3: wide range of topics. Because when you have a weekly visitor, 2491 02:05:40,480 --> 02:05:42,560 Speaker 3: you go places often you don't think you will. And 2492 02:05:42,600 --> 02:05:44,400 Speaker 3: one of the questions was, hey, you know, from a 2493 02:05:44,480 --> 02:05:48,040 Speaker 3: legacy standpoint, what does this do to Tatis? And he goes, look, 2494 02:05:48,080 --> 02:05:51,839 Speaker 3: I'm a Hall of Fame voter. He will, at least 2495 02:05:52,280 --> 02:05:54,760 Speaker 3: from the standpoint I'm sitting at now the way I've 2496 02:05:54,800 --> 02:05:56,920 Speaker 3: voted in the past, will never have my vote. 2497 02:05:57,000 --> 02:06:01,120 Speaker 1: Never if you've been actually suspended for ped Us, that's 2498 02:06:01,160 --> 02:06:02,920 Speaker 1: where he draws the line. He did vote for Bonds 2499 02:06:02,920 --> 02:06:07,200 Speaker 1: and Clemens because they were never suspended. But as far 2500 02:06:07,240 --> 02:06:09,840 Speaker 1: as an a Rod or a Manny Ramirez or yes, 2501 02:06:09,880 --> 02:06:12,440 Speaker 1: a Fernando Tatist junior, even if he has three thousand 2502 02:06:12,520 --> 02:06:15,520 Speaker 1: hits and five hundred home runs, they'll never. 2503 02:06:15,400 --> 02:06:17,240 Speaker 2: Vote from And I get it. 2504 02:06:17,440 --> 02:06:20,360 Speaker 3: I get it because look, if you if you vote 2505 02:06:20,400 --> 02:06:23,480 Speaker 3: for anything, whether it's political office, Hall of Fames, you 2506 02:06:23,520 --> 02:06:26,600 Speaker 3: know whatever I mean, HOA, presidents, it doesn't matter what 2507 02:06:26,640 --> 02:06:29,640 Speaker 3: you're voting for. You have your criteria, have what you're 2508 02:06:29,680 --> 02:06:35,760 Speaker 3: looking for in whatever the candidate is presenting. And in 2509 02:06:35,800 --> 02:06:38,680 Speaker 3: the case of people who are going to be you know, 2510 02:06:38,760 --> 02:06:42,760 Speaker 3: in charge of his legacy or from the standpoint of fans, 2511 02:06:43,800 --> 02:06:47,280 Speaker 3: you can make certain decisions and do certain things that 2512 02:06:47,320 --> 02:06:50,520 Speaker 3: are forgivable. But there is a line with many fans, 2513 02:06:50,600 --> 02:06:53,560 Speaker 3: and it's around performance enhancing drugs. If you go down 2514 02:06:53,640 --> 02:06:57,200 Speaker 3: that path, you will never be forgiven. Now I say that, 2515 02:06:57,760 --> 02:07:00,360 Speaker 3: and it's probably true for the most part. But if 2516 02:07:00,400 --> 02:07:03,000 Speaker 3: at some point Fernando Tatist Junior end up being a 2517 02:07:03,160 --> 02:07:06,000 Speaker 3: Bronx bomber and played for the Yankees and Pinstripes one 2518 02:07:06,040 --> 02:07:08,760 Speaker 3: day toward the end of his career, or got traded 2519 02:07:08,800 --> 02:07:11,600 Speaker 3: at some point during his time with the Padres, maybe 2520 02:07:11,600 --> 02:07:14,480 Speaker 3: those feelings in New York change. But right now, those 2521 02:07:14,520 --> 02:07:18,480 Speaker 3: fans forever and many of the visiting ballparks you go 2522 02:07:18,600 --> 02:07:22,080 Speaker 3: to will chant steroids or cheater from the stands for 2523 02:07:22,160 --> 02:07:23,280 Speaker 3: the rest of his career. 2524 02:07:23,280 --> 02:07:26,040 Speaker 1: It's just how it goes, all right. This is something 2525 02:07:26,160 --> 02:07:27,880 Speaker 1: on a left field that I just want to bring 2526 02:07:27,960 --> 02:07:30,280 Speaker 1: up for a second here. So I'm watching the Yankees. 2527 02:07:30,320 --> 02:07:33,920 Speaker 1: The Yankees is very complicated with their numbers. Every single 2528 02:07:34,520 --> 02:07:38,120 Speaker 1: single digit number in Yankees' history is retired. Oh yeah, 2529 02:07:38,120 --> 02:07:41,360 Speaker 1: one through nine, they've all been retired. So there's you know, 2530 02:07:41,360 --> 02:07:43,560 Speaker 1: the last one was Jeter who wore number two. That 2531 02:07:43,600 --> 02:07:46,720 Speaker 1: was the last single digit that was available. And then 2532 02:07:46,760 --> 02:07:49,280 Speaker 1: of course Jeter had his number retired, so there will 2533 02:07:49,320 --> 02:07:53,280 Speaker 1: never be another Yankee to ever wear a single digit number. 2534 02:07:53,480 --> 02:07:56,000 Speaker 3: That's a fascinating little piece of trivia. I would have 2535 02:07:56,040 --> 02:07:57,160 Speaker 3: never really dawn on. 2536 02:07:58,000 --> 02:08:00,120 Speaker 1: It gets to me, though, I'm watching the Yankees, and 2537 02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:03,800 Speaker 1: they had pictures in their bullpen. One was wearing ninety seven, 2538 02:08:04,280 --> 02:08:08,000 Speaker 1: one was wearing eighty four. I saw in ninety five. 2539 02:08:08,080 --> 02:08:11,600 Speaker 1: Of course, Aaron Judges ninety nine. He'll have his number 2540 02:08:11,640 --> 02:08:14,120 Speaker 1: retired someday. Which, by the way, that giant of a 2541 02:08:14,160 --> 02:08:16,720 Speaker 1: man wears the ninety nine really well, he fits the 2542 02:08:16,800 --> 02:08:19,880 Speaker 1: ninety nine. But as I sit here and you know that, 2543 02:08:20,000 --> 02:08:22,960 Speaker 1: I am a freakish numbers guy, which is what drew 2544 02:08:23,000 --> 02:08:25,320 Speaker 1: me to sports in the first place. Yes, but I'm 2545 02:08:25,360 --> 02:08:29,320 Speaker 1: not into uniform numbers. I have decided I want to 2546 02:08:29,440 --> 02:08:33,280 Speaker 1: rid all uniform numbers. I don't understand uniform numbers at all. Now, 2547 02:08:33,320 --> 02:08:37,040 Speaker 1: you had your uniform number retired in your high school. Yeah, 2548 02:08:37,040 --> 02:08:39,840 Speaker 1: that's right. Actually, yeah, still hangs in the gym and 2549 02:08:39,880 --> 02:08:41,440 Speaker 1: no one's ever worn that number. Again. 2550 02:08:41,480 --> 02:08:42,320 Speaker 2: What was that number? 2551 02:08:42,440 --> 02:08:43,000 Speaker 1: Seventy eight? 2552 02:08:43,240 --> 02:08:43,960 Speaker 2: Seventy eight. 2553 02:08:44,000 --> 02:08:48,120 Speaker 1: That's a strong, big, big offensive tackle out of two 2554 02:08:48,160 --> 02:08:50,520 Speaker 1: weeks East Metal High School. Yeah, I played defense off. 2555 02:08:50,640 --> 02:08:55,280 Speaker 1: That's a big number. Why just people clamoring for that number. 2556 02:08:55,280 --> 02:08:57,400 Speaker 1: By the way, everybody wants to wear seventy eight and 2557 02:08:57,520 --> 02:09:00,640 Speaker 1: watching pictures the Cardinals have a picture number ninety two. 2558 02:09:01,560 --> 02:09:05,840 Speaker 1: Is that for real? I mean yeah, I mean ninety two. Well, 2559 02:09:05,880 --> 02:09:06,560 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? 2560 02:09:06,680 --> 02:09:09,400 Speaker 3: Like so here here's also you want to talk about 2561 02:09:09,400 --> 02:09:14,080 Speaker 3: having your criteria. I had zero criteria for choosing a number. 2562 02:09:14,120 --> 02:09:17,360 Speaker 3: In fact, most of the time, this is through college 2563 02:09:17,360 --> 02:09:20,360 Speaker 3: and through the NFL, the equipment manager just assign me 2564 02:09:20,400 --> 02:09:22,240 Speaker 3: a number. I would leave it up to the guy 2565 02:09:22,600 --> 02:09:24,680 Speaker 3: who's in charge of washing the towels. I'd be like, 2566 02:09:24,680 --> 02:09:26,880 Speaker 3: whatever you want, buddy. He'd be like, well, we got 2567 02:09:26,880 --> 02:09:28,520 Speaker 3: these numbers. You don't want to choose one, to be like, 2568 02:09:28,520 --> 02:09:30,800 Speaker 3: whatever you think is best. And he'd be like, no, no, no, 2569 02:09:30,920 --> 02:09:32,360 Speaker 3: you got to you know. Some of them were like 2570 02:09:32,440 --> 02:09:34,160 Speaker 3: I don't want to do that, like you know, and 2571 02:09:34,200 --> 02:09:35,680 Speaker 3: so you had to make a choice of. 2572 02:09:35,720 --> 02:09:39,080 Speaker 1: Why didn't you ask ask guys that do care, yeah, 2573 02:09:39,120 --> 02:09:41,880 Speaker 1: and give them their choice and they'll take whatever's left over. 2574 02:09:42,000 --> 02:09:45,160 Speaker 3: Well, you know, but but there are plenty of guys 2575 02:09:45,160 --> 02:09:47,440 Speaker 3: who are already signed. When you get there, whether you're drafted, 2576 02:09:47,560 --> 02:09:49,280 Speaker 3: or you signed as a free agent, and. 2577 02:09:49,320 --> 02:09:51,440 Speaker 1: Well, how many teammates did you have that were absolutely 2578 02:09:51,520 --> 02:09:54,160 Speaker 1: demanding numbers? It happened. 2579 02:09:54,200 --> 02:09:58,000 Speaker 3: I would say probably a little less than a handful 2580 02:09:58,040 --> 02:10:00,760 Speaker 3: of times that a guy was draft didn't really want 2581 02:10:00,840 --> 02:10:04,320 Speaker 3: a number that he wore in college, or a player 2582 02:10:04,440 --> 02:10:06,960 Speaker 3: was signed in free agency wore the same number his 2583 02:10:07,040 --> 02:10:09,760 Speaker 3: whole career. I don't know, like a Chad Ocho Cinco 2584 02:10:09,880 --> 02:10:10,520 Speaker 3: for example. 2585 02:10:10,600 --> 02:10:12,960 Speaker 1: Okay, but I mean we've had guys that have actually 2586 02:10:13,080 --> 02:10:17,280 Speaker 1: paid teammates. Oh yeah, I've watched for their number. I 2587 02:10:17,400 --> 02:10:19,720 Speaker 1: watched it, I didn't get it. And by the way, 2588 02:10:20,120 --> 02:10:23,800 Speaker 1: those aren't small amounts of money we're talking about them. 2589 02:10:23,840 --> 02:10:26,120 Speaker 1: It's marketed by NFL properties and everything else. 2590 02:10:26,160 --> 02:10:29,480 Speaker 3: And I won't name names, but we're talking about tens 2591 02:10:29,520 --> 02:10:32,040 Speaker 3: of thousands of dollars over the course of my career, 2592 02:10:32,120 --> 02:10:35,400 Speaker 3: number in locker rooms across the NFL that I played 2593 02:10:35,440 --> 02:10:40,520 Speaker 3: in were exchanged for jersey numbers.

Then they have 2647 02:12:57,480 --> 02:12:59,440 Speaker 1: a bye week, and then they show up in the 2648 02:12:59,440 --> 02:13:03,440 Speaker 1: wildcard round and they look awful. Yeah, if you're the 2649 02:13:03,560 --> 02:13:05,760 Speaker 1: if you're the Nuggets right now, I don't know, I 2650 02:13:05,840 --> 02:13:08,440 Speaker 1: might be turning up the screws on this team, especially 2651 02:13:08,440 --> 02:13:10,640 Speaker 1: since they still have four more dates.

We've been talking a little bit about 2739 02:17:35,879 --> 02:17:38,440 Speaker 1: what's going on in the NBA, obviously, as we await 2740 02:17:38,520 --> 02:17:41,240 Speaker 1: a winner in this Eastern Conference Finals matchup between the 2741 02:17:41,280 --> 02:17:44,400 Speaker 1: Celtics and the Heat. Game seven will be tomorrow at 2742 02:17:44,520 --> 02:17:48,320 Speaker 1: TD Garden, TD Garden. I would imagine, you know, when 2743 02:17:48,320 --> 02:17:51,440 Speaker 1: the Heat were up three games to none and it 2744 02:17:51,520 --> 02:17:54,440 Speaker 1: looked like we were on a definite path to a 2745 02:17:54,920 --> 02:17:58,600 Speaker 1: Heat Nuggets matchup in the NBA Finals, We're like, Wow, 2746 02:17:58,640 --> 02:18:00,920 Speaker 1: that's that's your worst nightmare. You were looking at a 2747 02:18:00,920 --> 02:18:05,920 Speaker 1: potential Lakers Celtics. And my argument is this, I understand 2748 02:18:05,959 --> 02:18:08,680 Speaker 1: when you build up a series, like if you have 2749 02:18:08,720 --> 02:18:10,800 Speaker 1: a Laker Celtic, you can go back in history and 2750 02:18:10,840 --> 02:18:15,760 Speaker 1: everything else. How relevant, seriously is Bird and Magic in 2751 02:18:15,879 --> 02:18:18,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, considering that was back in the eighties. 2752 02:18:19,120 --> 02:18:23,400 Speaker 1: Rich you were born in nineteen eighty six. Yeah, so 2753 02:18:23,560 --> 02:18:26,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, how relevant You didn't watch Bird 2754 02:18:26,640 --> 02:18:28,280 Speaker 1: and Magic growing up as a kid. 2755 02:18:28,440 --> 02:18:33,000 Speaker 3: No, But social media in many ways has been such 2756 02:18:33,040 --> 02:18:36,160 Speaker 3: a booye for some of these old school stars because 2757 02:18:36,720 --> 02:18:40,120 Speaker 3: what you see on NBA Twitter and NBA Instagram A 2758 02:18:40,160 --> 02:18:44,199 Speaker 3: lot and NBA TikTok. A lot is former pros talking 2759 02:18:44,240 --> 02:18:46,760 Speaker 3: about how dominant Larry Bird was. 2760 02:18:46,800 --> 02:18:48,200 Speaker 2: For example, I understand, I. 2761 02:18:48,120 --> 02:18:50,959 Speaker 1: Mean, like like you'll have, but does that register with you? 2762 02:18:51,160 --> 02:18:53,800 Speaker 1: It does, honestly, because I'll sit there through a three 2763 02:18:53,840 --> 02:18:58,280 Speaker 1: minute clip watching highlights of Larry Bird dominating, interspersed with 2764 02:18:58,360 --> 02:19:01,480 Speaker 1: stories about how he was this leg legendary trash about you. 2765 02:19:01,480 --> 02:19:03,760 Speaker 1: You're doing the Patriots say you could be the next 2766 02:19:03,840 --> 02:19:08,519 Speaker 1: John Hannah. I knew who John Hannah was Alabama guard, right, 2767 02:19:08,360 --> 02:19:11,440 Speaker 1: but the Patriots, one of the most dominant guards in 2768 02:19:11,480 --> 02:19:14,200 Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. Unbelievable players not have been 2769 02:19:14,240 --> 02:19:17,280 Speaker 1: registered with it wouldn't have It wouldn't have mattered that 2770 02:19:17,400 --> 02:19:21,000 Speaker 1: much though. But a guy like Larry Bird, a guy 2771 02:19:21,160 --> 02:19:26,160 Speaker 1: like Magic Johnson, they live forever. Yeah, they're there. I'm there, ageless, 2772 02:19:26,360 --> 02:19:29,280 Speaker 1: you know. And also, by the way, how about the. 2773 02:19:30,160 --> 02:19:33,320 Speaker 3: Damn winning Time document documentary, I should say, you know 2774 02:19:33,879 --> 02:19:36,080 Speaker 3: it's not documentary, Yeah, a biopic. 2775 02:19:36,160 --> 02:19:38,400 Speaker 1: I guess you would call it mini series. Biopic many 2776 02:19:38,640 --> 02:19:40,640 Speaker 1: mini series that you've been a part of. I just 2777 02:19:40,959 --> 02:19:43,680 Speaker 1: did more recording for season two, So there you go. 2778 02:19:43,800 --> 02:19:46,320 Speaker 1: They're gonna have a season two. That show was great. 2779 02:19:46,400 --> 02:19:49,640 Speaker 3: It went into how those Celtics and those those Laker 2780 02:19:49,720 --> 02:19:52,840 Speaker 3: teams were built with the late great Jerry Buss and 2781 02:19:53,840 --> 02:19:54,800 Speaker 3: what's the what's the. 2782 02:19:54,920 --> 02:19:57,879 Speaker 1: What's really about magic sex life more than anything, which 2783 02:19:57,920 --> 02:20:00,640 Speaker 1: is an interesting side story. Look, if that was a 2784 02:20:00,720 --> 02:20:03,560 Speaker 1: legend in and of itself, it's Look, by the way, 2785 02:20:03,560 --> 02:20:05,960 Speaker 1: this is what we call a hard R rating on 2786 02:20:06,000 --> 02:20:09,400 Speaker 1: that show. Yeah, there is no question about that, all right, 2787 02:20:09,480 --> 02:20:12,840 Speaker 1: pull the kids to bed, all right. But the fact is, 2788 02:20:12,959 --> 02:20:16,760 Speaker 1: now that we have the potential of a Celtics Nuggets final, 2789 02:20:17,040 --> 02:20:20,920 Speaker 1: I'll put it this way. Forget the build up. A 2790 02:20:21,000 --> 02:20:24,240 Speaker 1: series is built on itself. I always bring up the 2791 02:20:24,280 --> 02:20:26,480 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety one World Series. You had two teams that 2792 02:20:26,520 --> 02:20:28,840 Speaker 1: had finished the last place the year before, the Twins 2793 02:20:28,840 --> 02:20:31,480 Speaker 1: and the Braves, not big market teams, no fan for 2794 02:20:31,640 --> 02:20:33,720 Speaker 1: leading in and by the end it was the highest 2795 02:20:33,760 --> 02:20:36,080 Speaker 1: rated World Series of all time. Yeah, because they were 2796 02:20:36,120 --> 02:20:39,480 Speaker 1: compelling games. The series built on itself. So even if 2797 02:20:39,520 --> 02:20:42,560 Speaker 1: it is the Heat Nuggets, doesn't matter, the series itself 2798 02:20:42,600 --> 02:20:44,600 Speaker 1: will build on it. But still I'm worried about this 2799 02:20:44,680 --> 02:20:48,520 Speaker 1: Nuggets team and we're sitting in the NFL rich where 2800 02:20:48,640 --> 02:20:51,879 Speaker 1: teams have made choices when they're locked into a play 2801 02:20:51,879 --> 02:20:54,920 Speaker 1: opposition where they rest everybody week seventeen or whatever it 2802 02:20:55,040 --> 02:20:57,640 Speaker 1: might be, maybe even have a bye week after that 2803 02:20:57,720 --> 02:21:00,600 Speaker 1: so we're well rested, and then they come out and 2804 02:21:00,600 --> 02:21:03,880 Speaker 1: they just lay an egg, like they look like they 2805 02:21:03,920 --> 02:21:07,320 Speaker 1: forgot how to play the game. So I understand the 2806 02:21:07,400 --> 02:21:10,920 Speaker 1: idea of getting a little rest, but when it comes 2807 02:21:10,959 --> 02:21:16,240 Speaker 1: to the playoffs, where the intensity level is next level, Yeah, 2808 02:21:16,240 --> 02:21:18,800 Speaker 1: well you really to the idea that you're resting in 2809 02:21:18,840 --> 02:21:21,760 Speaker 1: the postseed. This is what bothers me, where people are like, well, 2810 02:21:21,800 --> 02:21:24,680 Speaker 1: you know, you need to have a little it's the playoffs. 2811 02:21:25,240 --> 02:21:27,320 Speaker 1: There's no rest in playoff games. 2812 02:21:27,360 --> 02:21:31,359 Speaker 3: I will say this though, and I am strongly opposed 2813 02:21:31,400 --> 02:21:35,600 Speaker 3: to this much time being allotted to any playoff team 2814 02:21:35,760 --> 02:21:41,119 Speaker 3: leading into a final because from the just the viewership standpoint, 2815 02:21:41,160 --> 02:21:43,320 Speaker 3: I think it's awful. I just think it's a bad decision. 2816 02:21:43,360 --> 02:21:47,080 Speaker 3: You lose so much buzz between this weekend and Thursday, 2817 02:21:47,160 --> 02:21:49,879 Speaker 3: and this went to a game seven. I mean, imagine 2818 02:21:49,879 --> 02:21:53,360 Speaker 3: if if the the Miami Heat swept the clip we 2819 02:21:53,400 --> 02:21:53,959 Speaker 3: would have at. 2820 02:21:53,879 --> 02:21:57,080 Speaker 1: Celtic, we would have had nine days with no NBA basket. 2821 02:21:57,040 --> 02:21:59,840 Speaker 3: Nine days nearly two weeks of no basketball before the 2822 02:22:00,800 --> 02:22:03,320 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it makes zero sense to me. 2823 02:22:03,400 --> 02:22:05,920 Speaker 3: So putting that aside for a moment, though, from a 2824 02:22:05,959 --> 02:22:09,360 Speaker 3: gamesmanship standpoint, there are certain teams that could really really 2825 02:22:09,400 --> 02:22:12,680 Speaker 3: benefit from a long layoff, especially when we're talking about 2826 02:22:12,720 --> 02:22:13,760 Speaker 3: Lakers three years ago. 2827 02:22:13,920 --> 02:22:16,440 Speaker 2: Because of the whole shutdown, they. 2828 02:22:16,400 --> 02:22:19,600 Speaker 1: Really benefited the pandemic and with ad the whole league 2829 02:22:19,600 --> 02:22:22,720 Speaker 1: went on pause. Everybody was able to get healthy, and 2830 02:22:22,920 --> 02:22:24,840 Speaker 1: they were able to go out there and win the 2831 02:22:24,879 --> 02:22:26,080 Speaker 1: Bubble Championship. 2832 02:22:26,120 --> 02:22:26,760 Speaker 2: It was a sprint. 2833 02:22:27,120 --> 02:22:28,880 Speaker 1: It was a sprint. Yeah. All you had to do 2834 02:22:29,000 --> 02:22:32,240 Speaker 1: is just buckle him for about that's what it was, 2835 02:22:32,560 --> 02:22:35,000 Speaker 1: eight games and then into the post to the postseason. 2836 02:22:35,080 --> 02:22:37,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it was a total of maybe what would 2837 02:22:37,840 --> 02:22:39,680 Speaker 3: that come out to twenty something games that they had 2838 02:22:39,720 --> 02:22:42,320 Speaker 3: to win in order to win a championship. I look 2839 02:22:42,320 --> 02:22:44,959 Speaker 3: at it very similarly for the Nuggets. I mean, it's 2840 02:22:45,000 --> 02:22:47,920 Speaker 3: a long season. They were dominant during the regular season, 2841 02:22:47,959 --> 02:22:49,959 Speaker 3: they were able to put into cost mode a little 2842 02:22:49,959 --> 02:22:52,640 Speaker 3: bit after the All Star break, and they've been dominant 2843 02:22:52,680 --> 02:22:56,119 Speaker 3: in the postseason. It's a great opportunity to get away 2844 02:22:56,160 --> 02:22:58,400 Speaker 3: from it for a for a second, for a moment 2845 02:22:58,760 --> 02:23:02,240 Speaker 3: to to you know, put into neutral to maybe watch 2846 02:23:02,320 --> 02:23:05,320 Speaker 3: some of these Eastern Conference finals and take notes on 2847 02:23:05,360 --> 02:23:08,080 Speaker 3: your future opponent, whether it's going to be the Celtics 2848 02:23:08,120 --> 02:23:11,240 Speaker 3: or the Heat, and you come back fresh. You know, 2849 02:23:11,640 --> 02:23:12,599 Speaker 3: there's something. 2850 02:23:12,320 --> 02:23:14,640 Speaker 1: To be said about the winner that Heat Celtics game 2851 02:23:14,720 --> 02:23:17,120 Speaker 1: tomorrow is going to have an advance. They're totally sharp, 2852 02:23:17,160 --> 02:23:19,320 Speaker 1: they're into their game right now. They'll have a couple 2853 02:23:19,400 --> 02:23:20,920 Speaker 1: of days off them boom ready to go. 2854 02:23:21,200 --> 02:23:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, but if there's any nagging injuries, right, think about 2855 02:23:24,480 --> 02:23:25,959 Speaker 3: how long ten. 2856 02:23:25,800 --> 02:23:29,080 Speaker 1: Days is for the Nuggets. If there's anything that they 2857 02:23:29,320 --> 02:23:31,440 Speaker 1: that's fine, you have one or two players banged up, 2858 02:23:31,440 --> 02:23:33,720 Speaker 1: But what about everybody else that's on their a game? 2859 02:23:33,840 --> 02:23:34,120 Speaker 12: Right? 2860 02:23:34,200 --> 02:23:37,560 Speaker 1: If this you got Murray, you got obviously jokicch I 2861 02:23:37,600 --> 02:23:38,720 Speaker 1: mean this, if. 2862 02:23:38,600 --> 02:23:41,840 Speaker 3: This were a situation where you know, winner takes all 2863 02:23:41,920 --> 02:23:45,400 Speaker 3: game one, yeah, I'm with you, but you get I mean, like, 2864 02:23:45,440 --> 02:23:47,720 Speaker 3: if the Nuggets lose game one, are we just assuming 2865 02:23:47,760 --> 02:23:49,440 Speaker 3: they're going to roll over and lose the series? 2866 02:23:49,520 --> 02:23:49,720 Speaker 5: No? 2867 02:23:50,200 --> 02:23:52,680 Speaker 3: You know it's it's the other thing about the benefit 2868 02:23:52,720 --> 02:23:54,800 Speaker 3: of playing in a series is you could come the 2869 02:23:54,959 --> 02:23:57,039 Speaker 3: Nuggets could roll out there and look like they still 2870 02:23:57,080 --> 02:23:59,280 Speaker 3: have the crust in the corner of their eyes from 2871 02:23:59,320 --> 02:24:02,199 Speaker 3: sleeping the the past ten days or two weeks or whatever. 2872 02:24:02,240 --> 02:24:04,600 Speaker 3: It's been this layoff for them, and they could still 2873 02:24:04,640 --> 02:24:08,360 Speaker 3: win the series handily. And it's because you don't have 2874 02:24:08,400 --> 02:24:10,480 Speaker 3: to win right away in a series when you're playing 2875 02:24:10,520 --> 02:24:13,240 Speaker 3: best of seven. You can give one away and it's 2876 02:24:13,360 --> 02:24:15,480 Speaker 3: very possible they do out the gates. It doesn't mean 2877 02:24:15,520 --> 02:24:17,520 Speaker 3: that they're gonna lose to the Celtics or to the Heat, No, 2878 02:24:18,240 --> 02:24:20,760 Speaker 3: it just means that maybe they they didn't have the 2879 02:24:20,800 --> 02:24:24,720 Speaker 3: momentum or inertia coming out of a later playing conference 2880 02:24:24,760 --> 02:24:26,640 Speaker 3: final like the heater the Celtics did. 2881 02:24:26,640 --> 02:24:29,400 Speaker 1: All right, let's find out what's trending right now, as 2882 02:24:29,879 --> 02:24:32,959 Speaker 1: MONSI checked a few boxes today and you got the 2883 02:24:33,040 --> 02:24:37,160 Speaker 1: egg plant box checked.

Man. 3044 02:31:20,520 --> 02:31:22,240 Speaker 2: They were roaring in the twenties. 3045 02:31:22,600 --> 02:31:24,600 Speaker 1: I'll tell you all right, now that Chancellor came over 3046 02:31:24,680 --> 02:31:26,840 Speaker 1: with the milk jug and some dizzy Dame Kissey right 3047 02:31:26,879 --> 02:31:29,280 Speaker 1: on the chance In nineteen thirty six, Larry Kelly, the 3048 02:31:29,280 --> 02:31:32,640 Speaker 1: Great end of Yale, one of the actual first official 3049 02:31:32,680 --> 02:31:35,880 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy because Jay Berwanger, the first winner, won what 3050 02:31:35,879 --> 02:31:39,160 Speaker 1: they call the Downtown Athletic Club Trophy, and then John Heisman, 3051 02:31:39,200 --> 02:31:41,800 Speaker 1: who was the president, died and they renamed it the 3052 02:31:41,840 --> 02:31:47,080 Speaker 1: Heisman Memorial Trophy. What can I ask you about a 3053 02:31:47,120 --> 02:31:50,720 Speaker 1: guy named John Gruden? Okay, yeah, so did you see 3054 02:31:50,720 --> 02:31:54,320 Speaker 1: this where the Saints brought Gruden in to sort of 3055 02:31:54,360 --> 02:31:57,600 Speaker 1: show them some things. Derek Carvers, who he coached the Raiders, 3056 02:31:58,160 --> 02:32:00,360 Speaker 1: Dennis Allen, now the coach who used to be a 3057 02:32:00,440 --> 02:32:02,960 Speaker 1: Raider head coach. By the way, they brought John Gruden 3058 02:32:03,040 --> 02:32:05,080 Speaker 1: in sort of like as a consultant to sort of 3059 02:32:05,120 --> 02:32:08,360 Speaker 1: help him with an offense that maybe Derek Carr is 3060 02:32:08,400 --> 02:32:11,920 Speaker 1: comfortable with, which makes a lot of sense. However, it 3061 02:32:12,000 --> 02:32:15,600 Speaker 1: is John Gruden who essentially has been blackballed out of 3062 02:32:15,600 --> 02:32:19,879 Speaker 1: the National Football League, no announcing jobs, no coaching jobs. 3063 02:32:20,160 --> 02:32:22,760 Speaker 1: We don't know the exact amount of what his settlement 3064 02:32:22,920 --> 02:32:26,280 Speaker 1: was with the Raiders when they fired him. Should this 3065 02:32:26,320 --> 02:32:30,800 Speaker 1: guy get another opportunity somewhere associated with the league beyond 3066 02:32:30,879 --> 02:32:34,000 Speaker 1: just being a consultant, which apparently the Saints brought him 3067 02:32:34,000 --> 02:32:37,640 Speaker 1: in for for a couple of days. Hmm. 3068 02:32:38,560 --> 02:32:43,560 Speaker 3: From a football standpoint, speaking about like just the strategy 3069 02:32:43,640 --> 02:32:45,800 Speaker 3: of bringing in a guy with the wealth of knowledge 3070 02:32:45,840 --> 02:32:50,039 Speaker 3: and who's just a film rat like John Gruden, I mean, 3071 02:32:50,080 --> 02:32:52,920 Speaker 3: this guy studies more tape just out of habit and 3072 02:32:53,040 --> 02:32:57,200 Speaker 3: hobby than anybody else. I mean, he just loves it. Yeah, 3073 02:32:57,200 --> 02:33:00,680 Speaker 3: it makes sense from an optics stand point. From a 3074 02:33:00,680 --> 02:33:05,160 Speaker 3: public relations standpoint, this better be you know, a limited 3075 02:33:05,200 --> 02:33:07,560 Speaker 3: time thing, because I don't think it's going to play 3076 02:33:07,680 --> 02:33:11,240 Speaker 3: very well, you know, with the fans of the Saints 3077 02:33:11,240 --> 02:33:12,879 Speaker 3: and potentially in your own locker room. 3078 02:33:13,240 --> 02:33:13,440 Speaker 4: You know. 3079 02:33:13,920 --> 02:33:16,640 Speaker 3: Look John Gruden for what it's worth, whether you believe 3080 02:33:16,680 --> 02:33:18,920 Speaker 3: it was kind of a setup, I mean, he should 3081 02:33:18,920 --> 02:33:22,520 Speaker 3: not have been using that language, period. But those emails 3082 02:33:22,560 --> 02:33:27,080 Speaker 3: were released. Nobody else, nobody else's hands got dirty as 3083 02:33:27,080 --> 02:33:28,920 Speaker 3: a result of those emails being released. 3084 02:33:28,959 --> 02:33:30,440 Speaker 1: And by the way, the last time I say, he 3085 02:33:30,440 --> 02:33:34,800 Speaker 1: didn't work for the organization, correct, and he was talking 3086 02:33:34,800 --> 02:33:36,640 Speaker 1: to Bruce Allen, who did work for about. 3087 02:33:36,400 --> 02:33:39,400 Speaker 3: The Washington football team or whatever they're going to call themselves. 3088 02:33:39,440 --> 02:33:41,560 Speaker 3: They may have to change their name from the Commanders again. 3089 02:33:41,840 --> 02:33:44,160 Speaker 3: But you know, the whole point is, yeah, like, I mean, 3090 02:33:44,440 --> 02:33:47,039 Speaker 3: whatever you think about that incident, I mean, there are 3091 02:33:47,200 --> 02:33:49,080 Speaker 3: going to be players in the Saints locker room with 3092 02:33:49,160 --> 02:33:52,600 Speaker 3: strong feelings about what happened there. And so I again, 3093 02:33:52,640 --> 02:33:55,080 Speaker 3: if you want to dabble, you want to find out 3094 02:33:55,120 --> 02:33:57,320 Speaker 3: some things, you want to pay him as a you know, 3095 02:33:57,400 --> 02:33:59,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, a couple of days per deem to 3096 02:33:59,600 --> 02:34:02,920 Speaker 3: be your insultant. Sure, why not, I guess, I mean, 3097 02:34:03,000 --> 02:34:05,320 Speaker 3: but you just don't want to upset the Apple card. 3098 02:34:05,400 --> 02:34:09,360 Speaker 3: It's too early in this recreation. The seats, by the way, 3099 02:34:09,440 --> 02:34:12,520 Speaker 3: our another team that low key can win that division 3100 02:34:12,600 --> 02:34:15,840 Speaker 3: and could be a problum coming out of the NFC 3101 02:34:16,240 --> 02:34:19,320 Speaker 3: in the postseason. If Derek Carr can put together anything 3102 02:34:19,360 --> 02:34:23,200 Speaker 3: resembling a good season, that is a great defense. They 3103 02:34:23,200 --> 02:34:24,039 Speaker 3: were a top five. 3104 02:34:23,920 --> 02:34:26,240 Speaker 1: Well, they need a healthy receiving corps. I mean, I 3105 02:34:26,240 --> 02:34:28,640 Speaker 1: don't know if Michael Thomas has anything left. I mean 3106 02:34:28,640 --> 02:34:31,160 Speaker 1: we've talked about him for the last five years. You 3107 02:34:31,200 --> 02:34:33,320 Speaker 1: know whether or not he's gonna come back.
