11
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 2: coaching should be coached, the way football should be played.

12
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 2: My partner, my friend, the one, the only, Bucky Brooks.

13
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 2: Good morning, Bucky. How are you.

14
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: Andy? Hell's everything?

15
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 2: Everything is wonderful. You know I got a confession to

16
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: make to you right here, right now, in front of

17
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 2: the nation. Are you ready? I wanted to make this okay,

18
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: I wanted to make this a Caitlin Clark free show.

19
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: I can't. I can't do it, all right, not after

20
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: seeing the shade that's thrown at her, the hate, the dissing,

21
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 2: the intentional fouls. Honestly, I don't get it. I really

22
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 2: don't get it. The Las Vegas Aces said just the

23
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: other day on social media they would have sold out

24
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: the arena without her. Really really, maybe I doubt it.

25
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 2: I really do. These women in the WNBA might be

26
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 2: the most petty, backstabbing, haiti hating athletes I've seen in

27
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 2: sports today. It's got to stop. Caitlyn Clark has made

28
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: life better for you and your league. But maybe you

29
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: are too stupid to see that. Do you agree with me,

30
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks?

31
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: I mean, like she certainly made it better in terms

32
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 3: of I would say Kaitlyn Clark, Andrew Reese and the

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 3: class they came in, they certainly made it better. But

34
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 3: Kaitlyn Clark is the headliner just because she was the

35
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 3: most popular college basketball player in in the league. She

36
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: brought a lot of notoriety and a fan base with

37
00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: her to Indiana and the WNBA. But I'll I'll just

38
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 3: say this, when it comes to it, I think we

39
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 3: on the outside have made more of it than probably

40
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 3: needs to be made, and I think in turn that

41
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 3: has escalated some of the things that have happened. I

42
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 3: think people are just tired. I would say probably the

43
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 3: players are just kind of tired of Kaitlyn Clark, like

44
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 3: just probably Caitlyn Clark fatigue, and they were already going

45
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: to go at her because she was the hot shot

46
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: college player that was coming in Diana to ROSSI probably

47
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 3: set the table when she said it's gonna be real tough,

48
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a transition for and then it just

49
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: continues to escalate just because the more that we on

50
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 3: the outside talk about her, the more on the inside

51
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 3: they want to prove a point that is gonna be

52
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 3: hard for her to transition to the WNBA.

53
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: No know thatubt about that. And I will say this.

54
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: You know, you make sense. You make a lot of

55
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: sense with you saying but I will say this, the

56
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: WNBA was really gaining popularity well before Kaitlyn Clark came

57
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 2: into the league. We both know that. But you've got

58
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 2: to be a complete moral and if you think she's

59
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: not gonna take this league and she has not taken

60
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: this league to another level, And I'll say this, the

61
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: television viewership, the television revenue is skyrocketing right now with

62
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: Clayton Clark in the league. Because I'll tell you why, nobody,

63
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 2: nobody on God's Green Earth is tuning in to watch

64
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: Chnity Carter that I tell you right now. She made

65
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: a name for herself yesterday by shoving and pushing and

66
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: knocking Caitlin Cluck down. So nobody's turning on the TV

67
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 2: to watch Kennity Carter. Believe me, they're turning it out

68
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: to watch her. And you're right, there's a little fatigue

69
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: and maybe we've gone overboard, not we, but the media

70
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 2: in general. But there's a reason. There's a reason because

71
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: she was an outstanding college player. Want to see what

72
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: she's gonna do with the next level then, and these

73
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: arenas right now are being sold out. They want to

74
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 2: see her. It's a great thing. And this envy, this jealousy,

75
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: I haven't seen that in other sports. Maybe you have

76
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: you played the game at the highest level you in

77
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 2: the NFL. Have you seen jealousy and envy when players

78
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 2: come in with big, big reps with a Heisman Trophy

79
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: into the NFL that I want to knock this guy around.

80
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: That is a jealousy there.

81
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and it's always that. It's always a

82
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 3: very competitive deal. Like I mean, you talked about her

83
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 3: being an outstanding college player, but guess what everybody else

84
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 3: in the w BNBA was very outstanding and competitive and

85
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 3: a high level collegiate player. She comes in, there's going

86
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 3: to be a little look a personal competitive deal that

87
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 3: anybody is going to have with her. The physicality and

88
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 3: all that other stuff like that happens. I mean, it's

89
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 3: no different than what Caleb Williams is going to face

90
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 3: when he steps into the league. My thing is, how

91
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 3: does everybody, how does everybody expect for her to be

92
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 3: treated in the game. It's a competitive game where people

93
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 3: are trying to win, Like they're not going to put

94
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 3: rose pedals on the floor and like let her just

95
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 3: kind of waltz to the basket and do all these

96
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 3: other things. I don't know what people really expected in

97
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 3: a competitive sport, how they thought her competitors were going

98
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 3: to treat her.

99
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 2: No, you're right, and I'll say this and I never

100
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 2: played the game, but the hazing for a rookie, get it,

101
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: heard screens, I get it, trash talk and I get it.

102
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 2: That's all part of sports, no matter what the sport

103
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 2: may be. But the cheap shots, they're no calls. Now

104
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 2: the w NBA they looking at the officiating and say meanings,

105
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 2: that's tough enough. The no calls as the press conference shade,

106
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 2: it's embarrassing. Really, this league right now, as we speak,

107
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 2: has never been as popular as it is right now,

108
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 2: and I think part of that credit has to go

109
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 2: to our It's been growing, there's no doubt about that.

110
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 2: But you know, they don't even talk about it. I mean,

111
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 2: there's no credit, there's no thank you.

112
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 3: I don't understand, so so so what thank you?

113
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 4: Like?

114
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 3: So like so even the way that we're talking about

115
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 3: the league itself in terms of her, like everyone should

116
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 3: bow down and thank her and treat her like a

117
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 3: queen and oh, we should be internally grateful for her

118
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: as coming. So you got to you gotta understand these

119
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 3: are highly competitive people, alpha dogs, a level competitors. No

120
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 3: one in like, no one like that is going to

121
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 3: give her her flowers on a nightly basis. And I

122
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 3: think what we're doing on our side, the media side,

123
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 3: is we're expecting every night for there to be a

124
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 3: level of gratitude that they show her. It's not gonna happen.

125
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 3: It's not gonna happen in a competitive league where they're

126
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 3: competing against her. I think they have said the right

127
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: things about her coming into the league. They talked about

128
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 3: her being great, they talked about all of those things.

129
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 3: But at some point when the ball goes up, hey,

130
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: look it's personal, it becomes a very physical affair, it

131
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 3: becomes a thing. And also know this, the way that

132
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 3: she is responded to the physicality welcomes more physicality, the

133
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 3: way that she's laid on the ground, the way and

134
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that she hasn't handled the right way,

135
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 3: but it clearly she's not averaging forty points a game.

136
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: She's not doing the things and the pros that she

137
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 3: did in college. So obviously, until she's able to withstand

138
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: and whether the storm when it comes to the physicality

139
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 3: and tactics, she's going to continue to get it. And

140
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 3: the best thing that she can do is to be quiet,

141
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 3: because if she opens up her mouth and she talks

142
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 3: about how unfair it is or feeling like she's targeted

143
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 3: or being bullied, it only puts a bigger target on

144
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 3: her back to wear out. It's no different than the

145
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 3: way the Detroit Pistons used to treat Michael Jordan when

146
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 3: they had the Jordan Rules, and they beat him up,

147
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 3: and they beat him up until he finally had an

148
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 3: answer to the challenge. The only thing that she can

149
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 3: do is she has to answer it. Having all the

150
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 3: media people cry for her and do all that other stuff,

151
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 3: it only intensifies what she's going to face. This is

152
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 3: her battle. She has to of what it and I

153
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: think we are making a bigger deal out of it,

154
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 3: And because we keep talking about it, it only continues

155
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 3: to escalate because I can tell you now there's not

156
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 3: an NBA veteran WNBA veteran that is going to back off.

157
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: Because the media is like, oh, you guys are going

158
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 3: too hard on Caitlin Clark. That's never going to happen.

159
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: Well said, I hear what you're saying, but you know what,

160
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 2: I think what tipped the scale that made this, you know,

161
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 2: from bad to worse, It was when they gave her

162
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 2: that sneaker and the ASIA didn't get it from the

163
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 2: aces and she was the MVP. She's been in the league,

164
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: she's been a heck of a plan, she's proved herself

165
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 2: for the league. She didn't get it, and then all

166
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 2: of a sudden it became not because you're a great

167
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 2: player in college, not because you're coming in there heralded.

168
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 2: It came because of black white issue, that that that

169
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 2: her too, that that was a problem and the asia.

170
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, she she she got a sneaker net had

171
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: been in the works. But there's always an occurrent of that,

172
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 3: like there was gonna be an undercurrent of the racial

173
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 3: dynamic intention from the time that she became like a

174
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: household name and star, going all the way back to

175
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 3: two years ago when she was in the Final four

176
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 3: and it was Caitlin Clark and she knocked off South

177
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 3: Carolina and in those things, like it was always going

178
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: to be an issue. It was always going to be

179
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 3: a theme because at the time South Carolina coached by

180
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 3: a black woman and Don Staley a team that featured

181
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 3: a predominantly black starting lineup and lineup. It became kind

182
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 3: of pitted as good versus evil. And then even going

183
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 3: to her and some of the other stuff, like it's

184
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 3: not necessarily on the court, I would say, it's us

185
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 3: on the outside. The portrayal and how we have taken

186
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 3: her and made it like she was the sole star

187
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: in college and put her on a pestl above others.

188
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 3: We always do that with great players, but it was

189
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 3: extra so the perception, the media portrayal, the media attention,

190
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 3: and all of those things have created this tension that

191
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 3: has continued to escalate. And so, whether it is fair

192
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 3: or not, that is always going to be a thing

193
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 3: that exists because on our side, it's not necessarily that

194
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 3: we made it good versus evil, but we certainly have

195
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 3: kind of created this dynamic just by the amount of

196
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 3: attention and notoriety that she gets compared to some of

197
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 3: the other competitors who have accomplished similar things and what

198
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 3: they've gotten, not only now, but what they've received in

199
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 3: the past.

200
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 2: You're right, You're one hundred percent correct, You're one thousand

201
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 2: percent correct. But you know what also hurts the fact

202
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 2: that she's on a bad team, a real big team,

203
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 2: and it even makes it even worse than that, the

204
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 2: fact that she has a League All star Kelsey is

205
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: on her team, a teammate, and that has to be

206
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: a problem because that girl is the big time scorer,

207
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden she's coming in. You don't

208
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 2: even hear about Kelsey anymore. And the Indiana Fever. I

209
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 2: would have to say that before the end of this season,

210
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 2: the Fever coach will be fired because of what's happening

211
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: right now. She'll take the brunt of it. No, this

212
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 2: is gonna happen to Kaitlyn Clark for sure, but this

213
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: team right now is where they're two and eight. I mean,

214
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 2: she'll be fired. She won't last the season. There's no

215
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 2: way she'll last a season.

216
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 3: Well maybe I just don't know, Like if I don't

217
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 3: know if everyone thought that, like Kaitlyn Clark was going

218
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 3: to loss into the league and the Indiana fever was

219
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 3: going to be great or whatever. They just got a

220
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 3: leader Boston the year before, who was a very accomplished

221
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 3: collegia player, national player, leer player, a dominant player for

222
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 3: South Carolina. That's her teammate. I mean, I don't know

223
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 3: if they thought that they were going to take over,

224
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 3: but me being a longtime women's basketball fan, being someone

225
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: who has paid close attention to the WNBA, she was

226
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 3: going to struggle. She was a number one overall pick.

227
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 3: She went to the worst team in the league. The

228
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: team has good players, but there are a lot of

229
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 3: good players in this league. It's a very competitive league.

230
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: You only have one hundred and forty four players. All

231
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 3: of them are A level players. It's hard for first

232
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 3: round picks to stay around. It was going to be

233
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 3: hard for her to come and I guess put the

234
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 3: fairy tale or storybook turnaround in place that I guess

235
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 3: some of us wanted. Yeah, they may fire the coach,

236
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 3: but it's not going to change until Caitlyn Clark's game changes,

237
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 3: until she becomes a star in this league, and not

238
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 3: a star because of note and popularity, because a legitimate

239
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 3: star by being able to put the ball in the

240
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 3: backet basket and being a high level teammate that does

241
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 3: more than just score. She's going to have to take

242
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 3: her game up the superstar status to be able to

243
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 3: help this team turn around.

244
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,839
Speaker 2: And what you said makes tremendousness because you talked about

245
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: with the Detroit Pistons, the bad Boys of Detroit, where

246
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 2: they did to Michael Jordan. You know, it happens. We've

247
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 2: seen that, and I'm telling you what's going to happen eventually.

248
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 2: And maybe I'm way off based on this. When Wayne

249
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 2: Gretzky was playing hockey, what did he do? What did

250
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 2: they protect them? They had these guys, they called them goons. Remember,

251
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: Wayne Gretzky had these goons way back in the day,

252
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 2: Back in the day, and looking at history right now,

253
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 2: when the Boston Celtics were really dominating, when they went

254
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 2: like nine out of eleven championships. They had a guy

255
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 2: on the bench by the name of Jim Loskatov. They

256
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 2: called them Jungle Jim Lostkatov. He came in off the

257
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: bench and he was like the goon. He really was.

258
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: When there was pushing and shoving whatever it was, he

259
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 2: came in there and like threw a couple of wackos

260
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 2: and punches whatever it may be, and he straightened things out.

261
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 2: So what she needs, what Caitlin Clark needs right now

262
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: is a quote goon to kind of protect her on

263
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: the court. That happens, right, That's what they do in sports.

264
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I mean she's gonna need some of her

265
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 3: girls to take on their role of being the enforcer.

266
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 2: You know, you said, it's so much better than I.

267
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 2: I call them goons and you call them enforces. You're right,

268
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: but Gretzky, No, I.

269
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 3: Mean, but no, But that's what it's called hockey. So

270
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 3: I understood exactly what you were talking about. That's part

271
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 3: of what she's going to need to do. Someone is

272
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 3: going to make it, have to make it personal to

273
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 3: kind of be her bodyguard and protect her on the court.

274
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 3: It has always been like that. It's no different than

275
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 3: Draymond stepping in to make sure that you're not going

276
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 3: to beat up Steph Curry. It has always existed the

277
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 3: problem that you have right now. The Indy NA Fever

278
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 3: simply aren't good enough to be able to do some

279
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 3: of those things. And even though they got to win

280
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 3: against the Chicago Sky, giving them this second win of

281
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 3: the season, they just don't have enough. And as the

282
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 3: team gets better, and as they continue to move forward

283
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 3: with Kaylen Clark as kind of like the star or

284
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 3: the fixed centerpiece of the team, they'll have some of that.

285
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 3: But right now, she's going through what Kayln Williams would

286
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: go through in the NFL and what some of these

287
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 3: other notable rookies would go through is the transition. Yeah,

288
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 3: and acclamation to the league. But yeah, it's always personal

289
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 3: when you have young people coming into the league, and

290
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 3: a young person like her coming in with so much

291
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 3: fame and notoriety, she absolutely has a target on her back.

292
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 3: She's going to continue to get that.

293
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 2: And I'll say this, when Kennity caught a shoved her

294
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 2: and she felt to the floor, first of all, she

295
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 2: got to beef up a little bit, turned sideways. You

296
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: can't even see her. She must weigh eighty seven bounds

297
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: tripping wet. But what I didn't like is the fact

298
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 2: that when she hit the deck, Angel Reaes came up

299
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 2: the bench and clap. That was uncalled for. I don't

300
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: understand why angel Rees did that. I really don't. I mean,

301
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 2: I understand that there's a rivalry between the two of them,

302
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 2: there really is, going back to college days, but come on, really,

303
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: it was a bad look, Angela really was to stand

304
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 2: up and clap after your teammate knocked her on the floor.

305
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: That just did It didn't sit well with me.

306
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 3: I mean, I can't say that it's the classiest thing

307
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 3: that I've ever seen, but we've all we've also seen

308
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 3: this from angel Reach before. Like she's okay in that

309
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 3: role of being kind of like the bad girl, being

310
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 3: the villain, the joker, if you will, Like that's kind

311
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 3: of the role that she plays in this I mean,

312
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 3: you know in this movie arc that's that's kind of

313
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 3: how she gets down and that's what she's done. Like,

314
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 3: I can't say that I personally enjoyed it or liked it,

315
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 3: but that's also kind of par for the course when

316
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 3: it comes to her and how she how she gets

317
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: down and what she does.

318
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: Wow so much for me making this Caitlin Clark free show.

319
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 2: But you know, I think that had to be discussed

320
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 2: and we'll keep on doing that. Bring me throughout the day,

Speaker 4: think you have to apologize for talking about this at all.

356
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 4: I don't see this as a black white thing at all.

357
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 4: I see this as name, image and likeness. These girls

358
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 4: are coming in coming in hot they are already getting paid.

359
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 4: The Angel Reese is showing up at the medgala. You know,

360
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 4: they're already millionaires. They are unapologetically authentically themselves. The it's

361
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 4: a it's a culture thing. It's it's Brianna Stewart and

362
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 4: Tarazi and Kansas Parker. They've been making money and being

363
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 4: ignored for a long time. They're they're comfortable with that.

364
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 4: They're they don't they don't want. You know, you'll get

365
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 4: a little bump for the Olympics or something like that,

366
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 4: but they're they're making money. They're if you're a star,

367
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 4: you're doing okay. If you're a run of the mill person,

368
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 4: you might not be doing well. But these older girls

369
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 4: have been making money off of corporate off of the

370
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 4: corporate interests, and they want to keep making money. They

371
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 4: don't want these girls upset in the apple cart like

372
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 4: Drey you know, like Draymond Green. Most of these guys

373
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,719
Speaker 4: in the NBA are millionaires. So they don't care anymore.

374
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 4: They just they just want to get paid and they're

375
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 4: not going to say anything. But these girls are are

376
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 4: exponentially growing the league and making more money. And the

377
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 4: other girl say, well, I'm this is a risk. To me,

378
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 4: this is a risk my money. My money may go

379
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 4: down if I'm not as colorful as Angel or Kayler Clark. Yeah,

380
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 4: she pops. Angel Reese is the Bayou Barbie. So what

381
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 4: the dirty debut time? You know, it's like the w W.

382
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 4: People sell out a reader. The ratings are through the

383
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 4: roof people love, people love. I mean I love to

384
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 4: watch it. I mean, listen, if you got two nicknames.

385
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,479
Speaker 2: But you wouldn't watch it? If would you watch if

386
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 2: Kayla wasn't playing that she bought that that interest to

387
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 2: you and everybody else, Yes, you watch it? Well, would

388

Speaker 2: you watch it to the point?

389
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 4: If that's exactly the point? At Saturday at eleven o'clock,

390
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 4: would I be watching Women's VET with Kayla Clark versus

391
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 4: Angel Reese? I wouldn't be watching except because I want

392
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 4: to see. I want to see what happened. I want

393
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 4: to see how the story is. Caitlin could go four

394
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 4: and forty and I'd still watch because those It's like

395
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 4: Magic Johnson and Larry Bird in college. People want to

396
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 4: see how that story ends. People want to see, well,

397
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 4: what's gonna what's gonna happen about this? You know the

398
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 4: people I don't. And there's a bunch of other girls

399
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 4: in this class. They're very that that have have a big,

400
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 4: big media media attention, So get used to it. I mean,

401
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 4: this is just this is just the beginning.

402
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 2: I don't I agree.

403
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 4: I agree. He's going to stop anytime soon.

404
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 2: All right, Steven, go back, yeah, go back and watch

405
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: there you go. Hey Buck, we didn't talk about this,

406
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 2: and I think it's one of the biggest stories that

407
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 2: happened this past week in Major League Baseball. The implemented

408
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 2: the newly integrated statistics from the Negro leads and now

409
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 2: the new all time batting leaders Josh Gibson three seventy

410
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 2: two over time Cobbs three sixty seven. I got a question, though,

411
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 2: like why are they doing it now? Is it just

412
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 2: an ego boost for the commissioner rob Manford to help

413
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 2: his legacy. Now all of a sudden becomes like the

414
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: new Abraham Lincoln, the Great and mass and the Emancipator.

415
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't get it. And what happens to

416
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 2: Jackie Robinson. He doesn't count anymore. I don't understand why

417
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,880
Speaker 2: they're doing it now. And I will say this. I'll

418
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 2: leave you with this. The Negro League legends, the legends

419
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: that played in the Negro League. They deserve this, they

420
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 2: really do, but they're taken all these stats by Major

421
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 2: League Baseball. I think they kind of missed the point.

422
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 2: They missed the whole point of the fact that the

423
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 2: Negro leagues existed because these players weren't allowed to play

424
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball. That's why there was a Negro League.

425
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 2: And I don't think that people in Major League Baseball

426
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 2: even knew that or understand that agreed. I just I

427
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 2: don't understand why they're doing it now that I don't

428
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 2: get it.

429
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I mean I don't. I don't know why

430
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 3: it's the thing now. In terms of like those stats

431
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 3: or whatever. Those stats have always existed, Josh Gibson has

432
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,360
Speaker 3: always been celebrated as one of the top baseball players

433
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 3: Negro leagues or in Major League Baseball, and those things like.

434
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 3: There has been a concerted f for to make sure

435
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 3: that those efforts were recognized. They just did it on

436
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 3: a grander scale. Now. I don't know. I mean, I

437
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 3: can't tell you as to why the timing of it,

438
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 3: but I mean they acknowledged them, and I appreciate the acknowledgement.

439
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 3: I don't know what it means though, Like in turn,

440
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 3: it's really going to receive it because for so long

441
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 3: we've talked about Taikob and others being recognized as as

442
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 3: the best, and so when you mix in some of

443
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 3: those other stats, I still don't know if the mainstream

444
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 3: media will celebrate and talk to those guys like they

445
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 3: are the unquestioned number one or leader in the clubhouse

446
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 3: when it comes to some of these stats.

447
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 2: Well, I got a message for the commissioner, Rob Manford.

448
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,160
Speaker 2: While you're at it. Why you're changing records and everything

449
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 2: like that, why not take in the Japanese records as well?

450
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 2: Of course a number of Japanese players playing in Major

451
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 2: League Baseball. You remember, they'll throw their stats in their

452
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 2: next I mean, really and truly, is how what you're

453
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 2: gonna do? I don't understand that. I mean it just

454
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 2: it's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. And these

455
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 2: guys that played in the negro leagues, don't you understand, Manford?

456
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 2: Why they played? Why there was a Negro league because

457
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 2: they couldn't get into Major League Baseball. That's why. Yeah,

458
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,719
Speaker 2: I think it's great that the stats are incorporated, but

459
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 2: it should have been done years ago. I'm glad it's

460
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 2: done now. But again, what do I say, what happens

461
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 2: to Jackie Robinson isn't count anymore? I mean, come on,

462
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it doesn't make an I mean, what

463
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 2: about a Larry Doby, the first African American to play

464
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 2: in the American leagues. I guess this whole thing, you know, again,

465
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball is looking for some sort of a

466
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: hook to get people to watch, to be interested in

467
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 2: it because they're so shadowed by the National Football League.

468
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,719
Speaker 2: And it's said it really is because the World Series

469
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 2: comes out when when their season starts, and everybody's watching

470
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 2: National Football League games. So they got to do something.

471
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 2: But you know, every time they do something, they step

472
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 2: on their own foot. And I think they stepped on

473
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 2: their foot again, and this time it's unbelievable. It really isn't.

474
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 2: That's what I take it.

475
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 3: They they stepped on their own foot because dag now

476
00:23:54,320 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 3: is Josh Gibson's contributions or the timing like time time? Okay, yeah,

477
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 3: I mean I don't. I don't know why there was

478
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 3: a push to make it apparent now. It should have

479
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 3: been rectified years ago. But right, I mean I don't know.

480
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 2: Like I saw the press release. Major League Baseball put

481
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 2: out a press release about this. You know what it said,

482
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 2: quote negro league stats may be viewed separately and or jointly.

483
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 2: What the hell is that you're either including them or

484
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 2: you're not including them separately or jointly. I mean, come on, really,

485
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 2: it's a dumbest thing.

486
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 3: I mean that, Yeah, that, I mean that appears to

487
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 3: kind of I would say weaking, weaken the effect of it,

488
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 3: because if you want it to be inclusive, then what

489
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 3: you wouldn't do is put those stipulations on it. You

490
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 3: would make it, uh non optional that A you have

491
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 3: to include these things and this has to be a

492
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 3: part of what we're doing, and that other stuff. So

493
00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 3: I don't know.

494
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 2: I'm with you. Look, I'm with you one thousand percent.

495
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 2: And it's funny because even though that announcement came out

496
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 2: earlier last week, I didn't see a lot a lot

497
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 2: of press on it, I mean a little, not much

498
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 2: conversation on you. It came out one day to everybody

499
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 2: talked about it for a day and that was the

500
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 2: end of it. There was no controversy, There was no

501
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 2: controversy on it. Really, I mean, they just say, well, okay,

502
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 2: that's it and go. And maybe because people don't even

503
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 2: know who Josh Gibson or how great Josh Skipson was.

504
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 2: I don't I don't understand it, but that that's on baseball,

505
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 2: shame on them, really, all right, He's Bucket Brooks. I'm

514
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 8: Florida on Saturday night, winning it to one to claim

515
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 8: this best of seven Eastern Conference final in a six games,

516
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 8: So that means it's down a fifth year in a

517
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 8: row in which a team from Florida will be represented

518
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 8: in the Stanley Cup Final. The Panthers advance and they

519

520
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 8: That series continues later tonight eight o'clock Eastern time. The

521
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 8: puck drops Stars and Oilers with Edmonton leading this best

522
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 8: of seven series three games to two, so Connor McDavid

523
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 8: potentially one game away from playing in his first career

524
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 8: Stanley Cup Final in Major League Baseball. The Dodgers get

525
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 8: a great performance from Yoshinobu Yamamoto. He went six innings,

526
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 8: struck out seven, gave up one earned run as LA

527
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,760

529
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 8: home run of the season in the victory. It was

530
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 8: a three hour start to the Cubs in Reds game,

531
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 8: but eventually Chicago out last Cincinnati seven to five. The

532
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,440

533
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,960

534
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 8: had to leave the game after being hit by a

535
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 8: line drive on his hand. It was a bruise that

536
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 8: caused him to have to leave, and the Philly is

537
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 8: certainly hoping that he's not out too long. He's had

538
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 8: an outstanding start so far to this season, currently carrying

539
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 8: a record of nine to one. Over In Paris French Open,

556
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 8: innings affair, as the Aggies do win it four to two.

Speaker 2: that starts this Thursday. And they said brook they said

565
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 2: it wouldn't work. Luca and Kyrie and they carried them

566
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 2: mats to the finals. And I got to ask how

567
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: they do it because in Game five, Luca scored twenty

568
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 2: of his thirty six points in the first half, topping

569
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Timberwolves won twenty four one to oh three. Luka,

570
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 2: Doncis is playing better than any one on God's Green

571
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 2: Earth right now. I like to know, how does he

572
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 2: do with this guy's averaging twenty eight point eight points

573
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 2: a game, nine points, six rebounds, eight point eight assists

574
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 2: in seventeen games in the twenty twenty four playoffs. How

575
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 2: do you stop this guy? Why can't he be defended?

576
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 2: I watched Minnesota the other night. They were like falling

577
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 2: on their face. They weren't picking him up, they weren't

578
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: double teaming the guy, I mean, the guy who was

579
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: shooting from the top of the key. How do you

580
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 2: stop the guy? Can the Celtics stop him?

581
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 3: Uh No, Look, this is gonna be a great series.

582
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a great series just because of the

583
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 3: talent that is being matched up. Having an opportunity to

584
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 3: see Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown go against Kyrie Irvin

585
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 3: and Luka. Doncis who's gonna be fundamental Holiday will probably

586
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 3: draw the assignment. He's one of the best defenders in

587
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 3: the league, high IQ defenders, super athletic, long. He's gonna

588
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 3: challenge Luker. But the reason why Luca is so hard

589
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 3: to defend is he has great size, and so a

590
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,479
Speaker 3: lot of people don't realize how big he is and

591
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 3: how strong he is. When you look at the body,

592
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 3: you don't see a muscle of up player, but you

593
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 3: see when you watch his game, you see him move

594
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 3: people around. He gets to his spots. He can play

595
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 3: with pace and timing. He's skilled. He can put the

596
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 3: ball on the floor and go around you, but also

597
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 3: has the range to shoot from anywhere in the gym,

598
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 3: and he has like an old bag of tricks that

599
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 3: allows him to get his shot off around the basket.

600
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 3: You couple that with what Kyrie brings and offers probably

601
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 3: the best handle that we've seen in the NBA. A

602
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 3: guy who is an outstanding shot maker, who has really

603
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 3: kind of found his piece which has allowed his game

604
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 3: to go to another level, whether he's sharing the load

605
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 3: or taking over as the number one when Luca kind

606
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 3: of falls back and allows him to go. This Dallas

607
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 3: team is fantastic to watch. And as much as I

608
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 3: talk about Dallas, you can say the same thing about

609
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 3: the Celtics. The Celtics have been the best team in

610
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 3: the NBA all year. Jason Tatum is a tough shot maker.

611
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 3: Jalen Brown should I would say it's probably underappreciated for

612
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 3: what he brings. This is a great matchup. I'm looking

613
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 3: forward to it. I think it's going to be one

614
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 3: of the most competitive final series that we've seen and sometime,

615
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 3: and I'm just anxious to see them kick it off

616
00:30:59,480 --> 00:30:59,959
Speaker 3: and tip it off.

617
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 2: I'm with you, I tell it right down. I tell

618
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 2: you what I think this Jason Tatum, and I love

619
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 2: watching him play, but for some reason, like he just

620
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 2: falters in playoff opportunities and all I hear is like

621
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 2: he's the best player in the team and he's not.

622
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: Jalen Brown is the Celtics. Jalen Brown is the best

623
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 2: player on the Boston Celtics. And if Porzingis could come

624
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 2: back from his injury, and they say he may very

625
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 2: well come back, that would be a big boost for

626
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 2: him to kind of help out with Luca because they

627
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 2: need some big men underneath Al Harford. Perhaps, you know

628
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 2: he's he's getting old. I don't know if he could go.

629
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 2: He can't go forty eight. Al Harford can't go forty eight.

630
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 2: And Al Harford's one of those guys who go out

631
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 2: there and take a three. So I'm not so sure

632
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 2: he's gonna mix it mix it up underneath with Luca.

633
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 2: But you got to get someone out there to kind

634
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 2: of stop this guy because he'll kill you outside and

635
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 2: he'll kill you inside. That's what he's doing. And I'm

636
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 2: really shocked the way, and you hit it on there

637
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 2: that Kyrie Irving has found this piece. He really has,

638
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 2: because when Dallas traded for him, I mean, people thought

639
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 2: like they're out of their minds, what are they doing?

640
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 2: This guy is something more than a cancer on a team.

641
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 2: He's a troublemaker. He can't win. He is fitting perfectly

642
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 2: with Luca. It's it's amazing how they how they operate.

643
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful thing to watch them play on the court.

644
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 2: Both unselfish ballplayers.

645
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, really unselfish. And I would say the thing that

646
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 3: is always kind of gravitated, it has always kind of

647
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 3: stood out about Carrie is just how much players adore

648
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 3: him and respect his game and what he brings to

649
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 3: the table. When you talk to players about him, he's

650
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 3: revered for his ability to put the ball in the

651
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 3: basket of variety ways in his handle, his ability to

652
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 3: get to any spot on the floor whenever he wants

653
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 3: to look. It's unrivaled. The thing that we have now

654
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 3: is we have a natural antagonist because when he goes

655
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 3: back to Boston, given how it ended, given how he acted,

656
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 3: how he was divisive amongst the fan base, it's going

657
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 3: to be personal. But we love nothing more than to

658
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 3: watch these hero storybook arcs where we love you, then

659
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 3: we hate you, then we love you again. He has

660
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 3: an opportunity to change that narrative by the way that

661
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 3: he plays, and look, man, I think sometimes with great

662
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 3: players they relish those opportunities. So it'd be interesting to

663
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 3: see how he handles the opportunity that is there before him.

664
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 2: You know what sells and sports. I mean back in

665
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 2: the day, I think you got two teams and they say, well,

666
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 2: the Yankees are playing the White Sox, and let's go

667
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 2: watch the game. It doesn't work that way anymore. It's

668
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 2: now like player versus player. You need the bully, you

669
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 2: need the guy, you need the enemy, and you need

670
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 2: the guy who wears the black hat. And Kyrie Urvay's

671
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 2: gonna wear the black hat in this series. That's what

672
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 2: it's all about, you know, to some extent. Lebron James

673
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 2: has done that for years. You know, people come to

674
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 2: see him either because he's a great player when see

675
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 2: him because they want to boo him. That's what they do.

676
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 2: I think you pit one against the other. If you

677
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 2: watch the promos on TV for the NFL on Sunday,

678
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: it's not the Chicago Bears against the New York Giants,

679
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 2: it's quarterback A against quarterback B. You know, that's basically

680
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 2: what is It's Patrick Mahomes against Joe Burrow. When Kansas

681
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 2: City plays Cincinnati, it's not the Bengals against the Chiefs.

682
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 2: That's how they sell it, and I think that's how

683
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 2: fans kind of eat it up, good against bad, bad

684
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 2: against good, evil, evil and good. And that's what's going

685
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 2: to be in this series. You have everything you need,

686
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 2: two great teams, two large markets, a story team in

687
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 2: Boston that has been so close that can almost tasted,

688
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 2: but they faulted at the end. They can't, they can't

689
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 2: close it out. And a team like Dallas that came

690
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 2: from nowhere. And you got two large markets. So the

691
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 2: TV ratings will be tremendous this year in the NBA playoffs.

692
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, it should be tremendous. I mean, you talked about

693
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 3: two large markets. I'll just say just a skill level.

694
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 3: You have recognizable names, you have superstars that are involved.

695
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 3: It is a look. I think it's a team a

696
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,959
Speaker 3: TV's dream matchup to have this kind of star power

697
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 3: in that kind of game, to have a national brand

698
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 3: and historical brand in the Boston Celtics versus an up

699
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 3: incoming team. I can't even call them up in coming,

700
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 3: but I could say like a team that normally is

701
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 3: not given their due, the Dallas Mavericks on a major stage.

702
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,919
Speaker 3: I mean, and no one thought they've been in the finals. Yeah,

703
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 3: no one thought that he would be there and all

704
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 3: the other stuff, because remember it's not only Kyrie, but

705
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 3: remember how people talk poorly about Jason Kidd and the

706
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 3: things that he could or couldn't do as a coach. Well,

707
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 3: this is an opportunity for him to also rewrite that

708
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 3: narrative after some disappointing moments in Milwaukee.

709
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 2: Oh, you're right, You're exactly right. You know, sometimes people

710
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 2: need that second chance, you know, and he got it.

711
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 2: They got great players and they seem to like him,

712
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 2: you know. I think that's the bottom line. And you know,

713
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 2: I think that goes a long long way. When you

714
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: like the coach, do you play a little harder for

715
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 2: that coach? You've been there, done that in the NFL.

716
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 2: If you like the guy, do you play harder or well,

717
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 2: there's nothing to do with the way you play.

718
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 3: Oh no, I mean, I think likability is a huge

719
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 3: part of everything. You definitely go harder for the guys

720
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 3: that you like and respect. I would say in this instance,

721
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 3: for Carrie and for the Mavericks, there's a relatability because

722
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 3: of Jason Kidd. Jason Kidd is a Hall of Fame player.

723
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,439
Speaker 3: Jason Kidd is a top seventy five player. Jason Kidd

724
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 3: did a lot of things that these guys watched as

725
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 3: they were growing up. His ability to help them reach

726
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,320
Speaker 3: another level is simply due to the respect and the

727
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 3: trust that he has earned from them. And sometimes it's

728
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 3: hard for players to give that trust away openly, but

729
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 3: he has somehow found a way to connect with them

730
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 3: where they trust him. And because they trust him, they

731
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 3: play hard for him, They take hard coaching, they respond

732
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 3: to his instruction and tactics, and it's a beautiful thing

733
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 3: to see because when it's unlocked, you see them have

734
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 3: the kind of performances that they have. And it's not

735
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 3: just those guys. We didn't talk about PJ. Washington and

736
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 3: Derek Lively and some of the other guys making contributions,

737
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 3: but the two stars have certainly bought in. And it's

738
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 3: easier when your star is by into the culture because

739
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 3: everyone else falls in love. There you go.

740
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks and Andy Firman. We are Fox Sports

741
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 2: Sunday on Fox Sports Riding. And by the way, you

742
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 2: want to answers, well, he's got him, asked, Bucky is next?

743
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,720
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

744
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 2: All right, ass, Bucky coming right up. He's Bucky Brooks

745
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 2: and Andy Furman and we're live from the ti Raq

746
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 2: dot Com studio. This is Fox Sports Sunday. And away

747
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 2: we go, Here we go. Ask Bucky number one, John

748
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 2: Calla Powry, the new basketball coach at the University of

749
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 2: Akins are admitted at the SEC meetings just the other

750
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 2: day that is going to take a new formula to

751
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 2: win in the NTAA term. And he said that he

752
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 2: learned his lesson. He said, you can't do this now

753
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 2: with seven freshmen. I kind of ask you, why did

754
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 2: it take him so damn long to figure this out?

755
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,319
Speaker 3: Look, man, just because the talent is intoxiclicading. He did

756
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 3: a great job of accumulating great young talent at Kentucky,

757
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 3: but he took enough whoopings to know that in the

758
00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 3: tournament is about experience and age. He's gonna make change

759
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 3: when he gets to Arkansas.

760
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. He better okay. Green Bay Packers

761
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 2: wide receiver Christian Watson. He missed eleven games during his

762
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 2: first two years. He missed eight games last year because

763
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 2: of a pulled hamstring on his right leg. Now, he

764
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 2: and his teammate Eric Stokers went to the University of

765
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 2: Wisconsin's school of Medicine and Public Health for eight hours

766
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 2: of hamstring testing. They may have found the cure that

767
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,800
Speaker 2: one hamstring was stronger than the other. Has he found

768
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 2: the magic? And I almost forgot to tell you this.

769
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 2: That study was part of a four million dollar grant

770
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 2: funded by the NFL. Can you find the magic to

771
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 2: cure the hamstring pull?

772
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean I think so. I mean I think

773
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,879
Speaker 3: that you can point out the imbalances and the things

774
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 3: that potentially you may be doing to put yourself at

775
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 3: risk of pulling a hamstring and all of that. So like,

776
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 3: if the league has put a bunch of money in

777
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 3: it to research it, you certainly gonna get the best

778
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,359
Speaker 3: advice when it comes to maintaining your health and being

779
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 3: able available for your team.

780
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 2: How many hammys have you pulled in your career?

781
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 3: A few times. I've done it a few times. And

782
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 3: sometimes it can be due to look man, just being

783
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 3: too lean in terms of your body fat being low,

784
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 3: not being hydrated enough. There are bunch of different things

785
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 3: that could be at the root. But it's good that

786
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 3: they've caught it and they'll try and make changes to

787
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,959
Speaker 3: make sure we avoid some of these soft tissue injuries.

788
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 2: That would be great. It really would. Okay, if there

789
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,240
Speaker 2: is such a thing as a face of a league

790
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 2: or face of a sport, name them Bucky Brooks and baseball, football,

791
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 2: and basketball? Who might be the faces of those sports

792
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 2: or leagues? Still a baseball.

793
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 3: Look, I think baseball is tough. I don't know who

794
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,959
Speaker 3: would be regarded as baseball. You can talk about Aaron Jones,

795
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 3: but I don't know if he has enough popularity. You

796
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 3: have like young guys like Tatis Junior and Rafaelo who

797
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: could be that. Like, I don't know who the faces

798
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 3: in baseball and basketball. It's random. People are trying to

799
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,359
Speaker 3: make aunt Anthinny Edwards that, but I think the face

800
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 3: would have to be Luca or Joker potentially being the

801
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 3: face to that. And then football, I mean what Pat Mahomes,

802
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:04,439
Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes.

803
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 2: Maybe Travis you think, I don't know, you know, you

804
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 2: hit something on it. With the baseball situation, it's tough.

805
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe that's the problem with Major League Baseball

806
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,720
Speaker 2: right now. You can't o'chawnie. Maybe, but God doesn't speak English.

807
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, what do you do? Baseball

808
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,959
Speaker 2: needs one. They need one badly. They're really doing Aaron judge.

809
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 2: I don't think he's that kind of guy. Great player,

810
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 2: but I don't think he's the face of the league.

811
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,280
Speaker 2: I don't know, kind of crazy.

812
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean yeah, it's one that he don't have.

813
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 3: I don't know who the stars are, particularly in baseball.

814
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 2: We move on, We move on. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm

816
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,200

817
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 2: that and so much more where right here? Fox Sports

Speaker 2: Our number two on this three hour extravaganza.

831
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 3: to talk about more things that are happening in the

832
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:31,919
Speaker 3: sports world.

833
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 2: Yes, and we do that very nicely. Yes we do.

834
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 2: You know, we have a good pro and con situation here,

835
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 2: and I wanted to run this by you before we

836
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 2: get into your bread and butter, which is football. The

837
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:48,720
Speaker 2: unrivaled a new women's pro league begins playing January. Alex

838
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 2: Morgan and Carmelo Anthony their investors in this league. It's

839
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 2: a three on three league, co founder by Brianna Stewart

840
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 2: and then the FISA Collier six teams five players each,

841
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,680

842
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 2: highest average salary of women's pro sports. Good for them.

843
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,840
Speaker 2: I got to ask, though, is the public ready? I

844
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 2: know they want to jump on the success or, at

845
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 2: least the popularity thus far of the WNBA. Is the

846
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 2: WNBA that's successful to make this kind of a move.

847
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 2: The men's three on three, at least in my mind,

848
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 2: has been somewhat of a failure. I mean, it was

849
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,439
Speaker 2: been on CBS Sports, I think on TV. I've watched

850
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 2: it every now and again. I just it doesn't do

851
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 2: much to me. Three on three minds me going to

852
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 2: the park and playing basketball. I can't see a three

853
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 2: on three league. Your take on that this announcement is

854
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 2: going to be in January a three on three league?

855
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 2: In fact, it's a good time, I guess because the

856
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 2: NFL basically is just about over, although they're crescendoing to

857
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 2: the super Bowl at that point in time. But other

858
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 2: than that, I just I don't see a three on

859
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 2: three women's league really making it.

860
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 3: Look. I think three or three has always been kind

861
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:57,280
Speaker 3: of a niche sport. It's kind of popular in pockets.

862
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 3: I think what was it is the Gus Macker imitation

863
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 3: that's always the big right, the big three on three

864
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 3: thing that is up in the Pacific Northwest. I think

865
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 3: it maybe in Montana may be spoken yeah like so

866
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 3: so like yeah, like so you have that kind of popularity.

867
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 3: You do have the popularity of the Big Three. The

868
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 3: Big Three did bounce around a few different networks. It

869
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 3: started out on Fox, then it moved to CBS. They

870
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 3: now have a unique and special deal with x or

871
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 3: Twitter where they're gonna do some things and look, ice

872
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 3: Cube is try to get a foothold on that. The

873
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 3: women's three on three will be interesting because I think

874
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 3: three on three is an Olympic sport. Uh, there may

875
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 3: be some momentum that they can build off of it

876
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 3: this summer to kind of continue to fuel that. But

877
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,800
Speaker 3: it'd be interesting to see women have more outlets in

878
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 3: the US. You know, you think about Britney Grind and

879
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 3: the issues that you ran into overseas well. A lot

880
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 3: of that is because women had to go overseas to

881
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 3: really get paid. If you have some opportunities domestically now

882
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 3: you can keep some of your stars stateside as opposed

883
00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 3: to them having to go to Europe and other countries

884
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:00,399
Speaker 3: to play.

885
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 2: You know, they talk about it's gonna be the highest

886
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 2: salary for a women's league. I did. I don't do

887
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 2: a lot of research, but I did this because I

888
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 2: was curious, because I'm interested in money. Most people are

889
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 2: interested in money. The National Women's Soccer League their minimum

890
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 2: salary is thirty five thousand, all right, NBA it's about

891
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:20,280
Speaker 2: seventy five thousand, and then National Women's Soccer League average

892
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 2: annual salary is about sixty five thousand. So you know,

893
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 2: they got to push it up if they want to

894
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 2: be the highest. And there's only and I guess they

895
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 2: could do that Becau's only gonna be six guys on

896
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 2: a team, six women on a team. So we'll see

897
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,839
Speaker 2: what happens there. I'll probably watch it out of curiosity,

898
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 2: but you know, I hope they make it. I mean,

899
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 2: you know, to me, the more leagues out there, the

900
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 2: more jobs. That's basically what it's all about. So let

901
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 2: people work. You want to play basketball, you've give them

902
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 2: the opportunity to play. I hope it does work. And

903
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 2: it seems to me like the women's hockey, the women's soccer,

904
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 2: they're all they're all making some movement right now. They're

905
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 2: doing well, and I think the salaries will eventually go up.

906
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 2: As far as more people attending games, better TV contracts

907
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 2: and things like that. As long as there's a lot

908
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 2: of outlets, and there's a lot of TV outlets out there,

909
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 2: including paid for outlets, I think there'll be more sports.

910
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 2: I mean, you're gonna see I think probably pickleball a league,

911
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 2: a pickleball league down the road. Don't you think that's

912
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 2: gonna happen down the road?

913
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 3: I mean, some of that has already been playing. We've

914
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:21,320
Speaker 3: seen celebs and high end players player I remember watching

915
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 3: last year Stephan Graff and Andrea Augusty got together and

916
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 3: played in some pickleball matches, and that I think what

917
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 3: is different about this three on three league for women.

918
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 3: There are enough household names to maybe sustain. If you

919
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 3: think about the league having only six players on the

920
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 3: team and who knows how many teams they'll have, there's

921
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 3: enough notable names that you can comprise the league with

922
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 3: people very familiar faces. And if you get that kind

923
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 3: of support from some of the top players within the

924
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 3: WNBA to continue to play, that's a way to kind

925
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 3: of drive it. And this is a perfect time to

926
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 3: capitalize on it. The league has never been hotter in

927
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 3: terms of the WNBA, and if Breonna Stewart is able

928
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 3: to convince Caitlin Clark to play, certainly brings more eyeballs

929
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 3: to that league, and that is a way for it

930
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 3: to be very successful.

931
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 2: Exactly right. Okay, now we're going to get to Bucket

932
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 2: Brooks's bread and butter, which is football. Because you're the

933
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 2: best at it, you really are. And I tell you

934
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 2: right now, and I don't mean to embarrass you by

935
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,359
Speaker 2: saying this, but I think basically you're wasting your time

936
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 2: with that column on Friday, which I love NFL dot

937
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,879
Speaker 2: com and look at writers and scroll down to bucket Brooks.

938
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,919
Speaker 2: You should write a book. You should write a book

939
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 2: on football. I mean, have you ever thought about doing that?

940
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 2: Because the knowledge that you have on the game of

941
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 2: football itself, because you have every aspect covered, You played,

942
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,840
Speaker 2: you coach, you write about it, you talk about it.

943
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 2: Has there been a thought process of you ever writing

944
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:44,839
Speaker 2: a book.

945
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:47,879
Speaker 3: I mean, it's kind of like one of the things

946
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 3: on the bucket list. But look, that's hard work, man.

947
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 3: It is the other thinking, all the thoughts writing it.

948
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 3: That's a lot of work. We'll see some point in

949
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 3: the life we'll get to it. Not right now, though.

950
00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 2: What you should do is take all those columns from

951
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 2: NFL and put them in a book. Maybe that's the

952
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 2: way to go. But do you know this pass Friday.

953
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:08,320
Speaker 2: He's in there every Friday, and you have about quarterback battles. Okay,

954
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 2: and he asked the question. I guess you answered it,

955
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 2: But I want to know what you meant by it?

956
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 2: Is every job up for grabs in the National Football League.

957
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 2: You know, when they draft a player. I mean, it's

958
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:19,960
Speaker 2: your job up for grabs. I mean, we talk about that,

959
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 2: but you talk about specifically quarterbacks. Are the jobs up

960
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 2: for grabs when you go to a training.

961
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 3: Camp, not everyone, you know. I think if you talk

962
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 3: about a fifty three man roster, how many spots are

963
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 3: locked in by the time we start training camp. I

964
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 3: would say maybe probably about forty are already penciled in.

965
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,400
Speaker 3: There may be about thirteen spots that are kind of loose.

966
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 3: A lot of times those are backup spots and things

967
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 3: where you're like, either this guy's gonna be a starter

968
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 3: or he's gonna be out, but you have a handful

969
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 3: of battles, but a lot of the battles are already decided.

970
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 3: Every camp is not like that. Some people actually run

971
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,800
Speaker 3: a very competitive environment and competitive training camp, But for

972
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 3: the most part, some of this stuff has already known

973
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 3: before we even get to the facility to kick off

974
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 3: training camp.

975
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 2: Have you seen a newcomer steal a veteran's job in

976
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:14,399
Speaker 2: training camp?

977
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 3: It happens if a young player is playing really well

978
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 3: and they're able to sustain it, not only in practice

979
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 3: but in preseason games. Yeah, you can see a young

980
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 3: gus steal the job. A lot of it depends on

981
00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 3: the confidence and the coaching staff when it comes to

982
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 3: playing a young player. But you absolutely can see a

983
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:34,800
Speaker 3: young guys swiper job.

984
00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 2: All right, probably, and you mentioned this, the two most

985
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 2: compelling I guess battles of all coming up with this

986
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 2: football season right now will be quarterbacking and number one

987
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,359
Speaker 2: would be the Pittsburgh Steelers Russell Wilson justin fields. Let's

988
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:50,280
Speaker 2: talk about that for a second, because those two guys.

989
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 2: In Wilson, he wants to come back and show everybody

990
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:57,720
Speaker 2: that he hasn't lost what he had, all right, And really,

991
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,839
Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh they have a new offensive coordinator. How much

992
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 2: will that help Russell Wilson's I guess opportunity to not

993
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 2: only start, but to come back and do what he

994
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:09,640
Speaker 2: does best.

995
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 3: Well, it will help him a lot because Arthur Smith,

996
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:18,240
Speaker 3: former Falcons head coach and former Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator,

997
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: takes over play calling duties in Pittsburgh. He is a

998
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 3: guy who has a reputation for helping quarterbacks play better.

999
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 3: A lot of that is due to running the football

1000
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 3: being very effective on the ground. He's done that wherever

1001
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 3: he's gone, but also like putting the quarterback in a

1002
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 3: situation to thrive. When Ryan Tannehill was his quarterback, at

1003
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 3: Tennessee when an NFL Comeback Player of the Year award,

1004
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 3: had two of the best seasons of his career, passer

1005
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 3: ratings well over one hundred in each of those years,

1006
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 3: played outstanding football for the Titans. Well, Russell Wilson has

1007
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 3: an opportunity to do the same. And I know it's

1008
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 3: fun to dump on Russell Wilson right now, but Russell

1009
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 3: Wilson was on a Hall of Fame path and track.

1010
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 3: He has been a guy who' nine time Pro bowler,

1011
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 3: who look, seven seasons he's been over one hundred. When

1012
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,239
Speaker 3: it comes to the passer rating, is about finding a

1013
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:10,239
Speaker 3: way to allow Russell Wilson to be more efficient and

1014
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 3: effective from the pocket. Part of that can be enhanced

1015
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 3: by having a dominant running game in front of him.

1016
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 3: If they can run the football effectively and allow Russell

1017
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 3: to push the ball down the field, we can see

1018
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:24,319
Speaker 3: prime Russell reappear. Because no matter what people say, he's

1019
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,799
Speaker 3: still one of the more clutch quarterbacks that we've seen.

1020
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:31,360
Speaker 3: What thirty nine game winning drives in his career, second

1021
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 3: most among active quarterbacks. He's still good.

1022
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 2: That's an amazing stat And I tell people all the

1023
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:38,800
Speaker 2: time when we talk about what you write on Friday.

1024
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 2: If you love football and you love the NFL, you're

1025
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 2: missing it by not googling NFL dot com and looking

1026
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 2: for Bucket Brooks con when I read this said thirty

1027
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 2: nine game winning drive second most among active quarterbacks, trailing

1028
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 2: only Matthew Stafford. I had no idea that Russell Wilson

1029
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,320
Speaker 2: was there. But he's gonna have his hands tied because

1030
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 2: he's going against a former first round pick in Justin Field.

1031
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 2: I mean, they didn't get Justin Fields because he's good looking.

1032
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 2: I mean they wanted to play. And I don't know

1033
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 2: if he's going to be he's going to be Russell

1034
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 2: Wilson out for the starting job. But it's a possibility

1035
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 2: he could. I mean can he.

1036
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 3: I mean it's a possibility. I mean if he plays

1037
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,280
Speaker 3: out of his mind going into camp right now, Russell

1038
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:20,800
Speaker 3: Wilson has slotted in as the number one. He slotted

1039
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 3: in to be the starting quarterback. But it's an open competition.

1040
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 3: If Justin Fields gets out there and plays well, flashes

1041
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 3: some of the potential and promise that we've seen at

1042
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:35,000
Speaker 3: times in Chicago, there's absolutely a path for him to

1043
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,279
Speaker 3: get the job. Russell will have to help him by

1044
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 3: not playing well. But this is an opportunity for Justin

1045
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:45,720
Speaker 3: Fields to distance himself away from whatever happened in Chicago

1046
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 3: where he wasn't able to kind of solidisfy himself as

1047
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 3: a franchise quarterback. Join a new franchise and organization that

1048
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,360
Speaker 3: will probably put him in a better situation to flourish

1049
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:59,800
Speaker 3: in terms of running game defense, allowing him to be

1050
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,959
Speaker 3: a duel with threat playmaker that he's become since entering

1051
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 3: the league. That's a good chance for him, but he's

1052
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 3: still facing a veteran who has a lot of pelts

1053
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 3: on the wall, winning experience, winning pedigree. That's gonna be

1054
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 3: hard to top off. Russell will have to leave the

1055
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 3: door cracked, and then Justin Fields will have to kind

1056
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 3: of kick it down when he gets his opportunity.

1057
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,719
Speaker 2: Okay, here's my question. If I'm Russell Wilson, or maybe

1058
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 2: if I'm Russell Wilson's I mean Justin Field's agent, I mean,

1059
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,360
Speaker 2: will he get the chance. I mean, he's gonna be

1060
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,759
Speaker 2: going against what three preseason games, and when he does

1061
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 2: get into those games, he'll be playing against the beef teams.

1062
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:35,239
Speaker 2: So even if he does well, they're gonna say, well,

1063
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,399
Speaker 2: he didn't do it against starters, and he's gonna play

1064
00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 2: with guys that probably a lot of them won't make

1065
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 2: the roster. I don't know if he'll be giving a

1066
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 2: fair shot. Not that he won't know that they don't

1067
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:45,359
Speaker 2: want to give him a fair shot, but I don't

1068
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 2: think he'll be able to have the time to get

1069
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 2: a fair shot. Right. If Russell Wilson's pencil then is

1070
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:54,359
Speaker 2: the number one guy, I mean, justin fields. All he's

1071
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:55,920
Speaker 2: gonna do. He's got to show off his talents in

1072
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,560
Speaker 2: practice and when he gets into a ballgame against the

1073
00:52:58,680 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 2: also runs.

1074
00:52:59,440 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 4: Right.

1075
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 2: I gotta be good, be tough.

1076
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 3: Uh, it's going to be tough, but it can be done.

1077
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 3: What I would tell him, I would tell him, you

1078
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 3: made most of every opportunity. If you only get ten reps,

1079
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 3: make sure that the best ten reps that we can see. Uh,

1080
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 3: you can't worry about what Russell is doing. You got

1081
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:19,080
Speaker 3: to dig in and kind of lock in on yourself

1082
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 3: and really focus on being a great player in your

1083
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 3: own right and playing the way that you need to

1084
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,839
Speaker 3: play given the skills that you have. And so if

1085
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 3: that means that you need to run more, use your

1086
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 3: legs more. Do that, but don't try to answer the

1087
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:37,200
Speaker 3: outside questions, the narratives about his passing and pocket passing

1088
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 3: efficiency and all of that. Just go play and play well.

1089
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,399
Speaker 3: If he does that, he'll get an opportunity. The game

1090
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 3: always gives people opportunities to show what they can do.

1091
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,800
Speaker 3: He just has to be ready when the opportunity arises.

1092
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:50,319
Speaker 1: Right.

1093
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 2: The only way he'll play big time if is Russell

1094
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 2: Wilson gets hurt. Correct, I mean that's that's the way.

1095
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: It's going to be.

1096
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, if it has a situation where somehow Justin Fields

1097
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,200
Speaker 3: is able to get on the field and start a

1098
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 3: game or two early, maybe due to injury or something

1099
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 3: like that. Don't knock on hoping that doesn't happen. But yeah,

1100
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,719
Speaker 3: if there's an injury that creates an opportunity for him,

1101
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 3: that's when he can swipe the job. But even in

1102
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 3: that situation, he has to handle it the right way.

1103
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 3: He can't go into that situation worrying about, oh, this

1104
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:23,239
Speaker 3: is my chance to steal the job. He has to

1105
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:24,919
Speaker 3: focus on what can I do to him to steal

1106
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:26,880
Speaker 3: his Win games? I win games. I'm gonna have more

1107
00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:28,240
Speaker 3: opportunities to be on the field.

1108
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,560
Speaker 2: All right, you're talking about two compelling battles. That was

1109
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 2: battle number one the second one, really and truly, if

1110
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 2: I'm the head coach, I scratched my head and say,

1111
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 2: what am I gonna do here? So Las Vegas Raiders,

1112
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell. Now, look, Gardner Minshew has

1113
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 2: been a journeyman, a backup guy. But he did well

1114
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,439
Speaker 2: in Indiana last year for the Indianapolis Colts when needed

1115
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 2: when he called them when Richardson got hurt. But is

1116
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,960
Speaker 2: he a number one quarterback? I guess he may have

1117
00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,319
Speaker 2: to be a number one quarterback, but is he going

1118
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 2: to be their quarterback for the future. I can't see

1119
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,440
Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew leading the Las Vegas Raiders.

1120
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,600
Speaker 3: Look, man, that's that's a million dollar question. They're paying

1121
00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 3: him fifteen million dollars guaranteed over two years to be

1122
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 3: that quarterback. That's I would say when you look at

1123
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,919
Speaker 3: that number, that number is high end backup money, which

1124
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,040
Speaker 3: is what he's been for most of his career. What

1125
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 3: Governer Minshew will have to do is prove that he

1126
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 3: can be more consistent and be more than just a flasher,

1127
00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:25,080
Speaker 3: meaning he can put up moments but then the longer

1128
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 3: that he plays, the more defenses figure him out and

1129
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 3: the production declines. The Indianapolis coach did a really good

1130
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 3: job of working around Garnmentshew, working around his deficiencies and

1131
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:39,879
Speaker 3: limitations as a passer and playmaker. In Vegas. We'll see

1132
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,239
Speaker 3: if Luke Getsy is creative enough to be able to

1133
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:44,920
Speaker 3: do the same, because if he's not creative enough to

1134
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 3: allow Garner Minshew to help Governmentshew unlock some of the

1135
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 3: talent of this offense. Yeah, we're looking at a situation

1136
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,480
Speaker 3: where ad and o'conno could end up being the guy.

1137
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 2: Now, the funny thing is, and you know this better

1138
00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:00,120
Speaker 2: than anybody, that in sports, you get a label, a

1139
00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 2: label to your name, and I take Gardner Minshew's going

1140
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,239
Speaker 2: to be labeled as a sub, maybe a super sub,

1141
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 2: but a sub, and it's very difficult to move from

1142
00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,279
Speaker 2: that sub label to become the starter. That's why I

1143
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 2: got to believe Aidan O'Connell's going to be the guy.

1144
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 2: Although you did mention that Gardan Mintchell's getting some big bucks,

1145
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 2: but this guy, Aidan O'Connell took the Raiders to a

1146
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,719
Speaker 2: five and five record as a rookie, which is not bad,

1147
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 2: and he did it under a coach who wasn't a

1148
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,520
Speaker 2: head coach. He's like an interim coach. So I think

1149
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,279
Speaker 2: he did a pretty good job. So if I'm a

1150
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,919
Speaker 2: betting man, I'd say probably Aidan O'Connell gets to start

1151
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:30,560
Speaker 2: on the center on opening.

1152
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:36,239
Speaker 3: Day, Yeah, I would think so. I think he look

1153
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:40,880
Speaker 3: he's earned a special spot in Antonio Pierce's heart. Antonio

1154
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,800
Speaker 3: Pierce talks about aid and O'Connell. He never is dismissive

1155
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 3: of his chances of being able to start and win games.

1156
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:52,120
Speaker 3: To me, that speaks volumes about how much he trusts

1157
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 3: Aidan O'Connell. And in a competition where it ultimately comes

1158
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 3: down to who does the head coach trust the most,

1159
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:05,040
Speaker 3: ain't o'clin O'Connor has the O'Connell has the inside track.

1160
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 3: This is one where I think Garna Minshew is gonna

1161
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:09,799
Speaker 3: have to play out of his mind to win the job.

1162
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,279
Speaker 3: Right now. I think O'Connell is pencil then to be

1163
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:12,720
Speaker 3: the starter.

1164
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,880
Speaker 2: There you go, all right, So those are the two

1165
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 2: battles that everybody's gonna be watching, because would you see

1166
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 2: that maybe those are the two biggest battles that media

1167
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 2: is gonna be concentrated on this year and up in

1168
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 2: the preseason.

1169
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 3: I think so. I mean I think they're I think

1170
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,440
Speaker 3: they're really gonna be focused on that. I mean, we're

1171
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 3: gonna talk at Nis him about the young quarterbacks and

1172
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:39,040
Speaker 3: the competitive environment that you will see people that talk

1173
00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:40,920
Speaker 3: about Drake Maye. But really everyone wants to know, is

1174
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 3: bow Nick's going to be the starter in Denver? Has

1175
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 3: bow Knicks done enough to put himself in a position

1176
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 3: to win the starting job? If he does that, he's

1177
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,920
Speaker 3: the starter. He's Sean Payton's handpick guy. Then it becomes

1178
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:56,040
Speaker 3: a different thing. Will he be Sean Payton's next Drew

1179
00:57:56,080 --> 00:58:00,600
Speaker 3: Brees or will he kind of fall somewhere in between

1180
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,960
Speaker 3: being a solid starter or a guy that is just

1181
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:05,760
Speaker 3: going to be a high end number two for most

1182
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 3: of his Innavil career.

1183
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:09,800
Speaker 2: You know, today's the second of June. You know, I'd

1184
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 2: say about five six weeks from now it gets rocking

1185
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,320
Speaker 2: and rolling camps open up. So believe it or not,

1186
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 2: we're here. I mean, we're on the doorstep of the

1187
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 2: National Football League season already, are we?

1188
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 4: Oh?

1189
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's here, and you know it's different

1190
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 3: when they talk about the proposals and how the calendar

1191
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,720
Speaker 3: we flip. Yeah, once you get to June, you talk

1192
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:33,160
Speaker 3: about seven weeks until NFL training camps open up. You

1193
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 3: have a few weeks like really this week and next

1194
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 3: week of OTA's and then the players disappeared for the summer,

1195
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 3: and before you know it, we'll be right back. And

1196
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 3: once they get a training camp, it is a sprint

1197
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:47,000
Speaker 3: to what amounts as a marathon because the football season

1198
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 3: runs all the way through February. But yes, I mean

1199
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 3: it's right there, you can smell it.

1200
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,880
Speaker 2: Quick question about OTA's. Once the players split OTA's, are

1201
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 2: they given like a workout schedule by their position coach

1202
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:58,720
Speaker 2: or they're on their own? How does that work?

1203
00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 3: Okay, So when you are done for the summer, the

1204
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 3: strength coach will give everyone a workout plan. He would

1205
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 3: tell you follow these workouts. If you do these workouts

1206
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,959
Speaker 3: religiously into a t you'll come back in great shape.

1207
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 3: You won't have any issues passing the conditioning test or

1208
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 3: getting ready for training camp. You're on your own, so

1209
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 3: you have to ser a field or a place to

1210
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,440
Speaker 3: work out. If you're working with a private trainer, a

1211
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 3: personal trainer, you have to pay for that out of

1212
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 3: your own pocket. You assume all the risks when it

1213
00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 3: comes to that. If you're working out away from the facility,

1214
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,600
Speaker 3: if you get injured, you take all of that on,

1215
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 3: whereas if you worked out, stayed in your town, worked

1216
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 3: out of the facility. In those things, the team assumes

1217
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 3: the risk when it comes to liability if you get hurt.

1218
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,240
Speaker 3: You also have the ability to work with the strength

1219
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:50,560
Speaker 3: and conditioning coach who can give you the workouts to

1220
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 3: ensure that you're going to be ready to play. When

1221
00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 3: you go off on your own and you deal with

1222
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 3: a personal trainer, we don't know if that philosophy that

1223
00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:01,880
Speaker 3: he hasn up with the philosophy that we have within

1224
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:07,160
Speaker 3: the team, and sometimes those confleet can conflicting philosophies and

1225
01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 3: mythologies can end up creating damage to you when you

1226
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:14,760
Speaker 3: come back because of the escalation to quick ramp up

1227
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,520
Speaker 3: to camp. Some of these soft tissue injuries that you

1228
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 3: see are these different things being at play. That's why

1229
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 3: I think you're having a conversation about the nflpa's proposal

1230
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,800
Speaker 3: to change OTAs as we know it, maybe to give

1231
01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 3: the team a little more control over preparing the player

1232
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:35,000
Speaker 3: instead of right now the way that's currently constructed.

1233
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,080
Speaker 2: Interesting, always interesting with Bucky Brooks talks. There you go.

1234
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 2: You want to get Buckey Brooks, get him on Twitter

1253
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 2: after we get up the year and the big news

1254
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 2: right now, I think in the National Football League, this

1255
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:40,080
Speaker 2: kid wrestler Gable Stevenson, he won an Olympic gold medal

1256
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 2: of the Tokyo Summer Olympics. He's going to the NFL.

1257
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:44,919
Speaker 2: He signed with the Buffalo Bills. He's expected to play

1258
01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:48,800
Speaker 2: on the defensive line six one two seventy five. Expected

1259
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 2: to play there, something he hasn't done before during his

1260
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 2: athletic career. In fact, the first time Stevenson never put

1261
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:57,400
Speaker 2: on a pair of cleats was at a recent workout

1262
01:01:57,480 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 2: for the Buffalo Bills. And he wants to be now

1263
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:03,000
Speaker 2: like Es besides Bob Hayes, the only athlete ever to

1264
01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:07,040
Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl ring and an Olympic gold medal. Interesting.

1265
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 2: I guess when you heard this news you had to

1266
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:12,360
Speaker 2: like scratch your head. Why and can he make the move?

1267
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,080
Speaker 2: Kind of guy who is a wrestler in college and

1268
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 2: an outstanding gold medalist at the Olympics make it in

1269
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 2: the National Football League in a position he's never played,

1270
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 2: sporting has never played and the size six point two

1271
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 2: seventy five defensive line is that big enough?

1272
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 3: I will say that he faces long odds to be

1273
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 3: able to make it. Best case scenario, he flashes enough

1274
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 3: to earn a practice squad spot that gives him a

1275
01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 3: year to learn to position so he can compete for

1276
01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 3: a real roster spot the following year. I won't dismiss

1277
01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:51,280
Speaker 3: it because he obviously is a gold medal caliber wrestler.

1278
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 3: There's some crossover between wrestling and football when it comes

1279
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:59,280
Speaker 3: to leverage and contact balance in those things before a

1280
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 3: player who is never played man, this is a tough task.

1281
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 3: It's a really, really tough task for him, and the

1282
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,680
Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills will need to be invested in him making

1283
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:13,720
Speaker 3: it now. This is not uncommon for crossover stars to

1284
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 3: make their way. A couple of years ago, they had

1285
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 3: a rugby player, an accomplished rugby player, try out, try

1286
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 3: and make the team. Didn't eventually make the team, but

1287
01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:25,520
Speaker 3: had an opportunity to. This will be that you hope

1288
01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 3: that he flashes enough. That's intriguing, but it's really hard

1289
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:31,439
Speaker 3: to teach someone at the highest level how to play

1290
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 3: the game unless they have a little experience in high

1291
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 3: school or those things. Not saying that he can't make it,

1292
01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:39,840
Speaker 3: but it's just the odds are really really against him.

1293
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:41,200
Speaker 3: In terms of eventually making it.

1294
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 2: You know, every coach and every sport thinks that they

1295
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:45,960
Speaker 2: have they're going to invent the wheel in a different

1296
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,520
Speaker 2: sort of way. That's great. That's what makes them creative

1297
01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:50,560
Speaker 2: and good and separates them from the rest of the pack.

1298
01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 2: So you wonder know why maybe this guy Stevenson signed

1299
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 2: with the Buffalo Bills. Their coach Sean McDermott. This guy

1300
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:58,720
Speaker 2: was a championship high school wrestling. He has a background

1301
01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:00,840
Speaker 2: in wrestling, and he wants this kid to play the

1302
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:02,800
Speaker 2: defensive line, and he thinks he has the potential to

1303
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:05,040
Speaker 2: make it, so he becomes a genius of In fact,

1304
01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:06,919
Speaker 2: this kid makes it, and they'll take all the credit

1305
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 2: for it because he knows wrestling and he was a wrestler.

1306
01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 2: But you know, we'll see what happens. It'll be an

1307
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,680
Speaker 2: interesting story, and I think right now again, it'll be

1308
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,400
Speaker 2: one of those stories that people follow rather closely when

1309
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 2: the camps open up.

1310
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be one. But I will say this, Jordan Mayalta,

1311
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:28,040
Speaker 3: the big time tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles, was a

1312
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:30,520
Speaker 3: guy who's a rugby player and when they drafted him,

1313
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:31,920
Speaker 3: it took him. He had never really played He was

1314
01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:36,320
Speaker 3: a rugby player exclusively. He finds a way to make

1315
01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:39,640
Speaker 3: the transition. It took him a year and some change

1316
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 3: to kind of get it down, but here he is.

1317
01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 3: He has just do a major deal, a blockbuster deal

1318
01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:47,440
Speaker 3: to stay with the Eagles for a long time. So

1319
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,040
Speaker 3: it can happen a lot of times. It depends on

1320
01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:53,000
Speaker 3: who's the teacher in the room. Who's the guy that

1321
01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:55,560
Speaker 3: is going to show this guy how to play, who's

1322
01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:57,360
Speaker 3: the d line coach? How long are they going to

1323
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:00,280
Speaker 3: invest in him. Did Sean McDermott the head which have

1324
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:04,080
Speaker 3: a vested interest in seeing this guy succeed or was

1325
01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:08,040
Speaker 3: this a free office up front, office driven move where

1326
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:11,240
Speaker 3: the scouting staff kind of drove this drove the team

1327
01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:13,120
Speaker 3: to sign them. It'd be interesting a lot of things

1328
01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 3: to play, but they get hurt when you when you

1329
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:17,800
Speaker 3: have a long roster and you haven't expanded practice squad.

1330
01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:20,120
Speaker 3: You can take some chances like this. He can be

1331
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 3: a guy that if he shows enough, he earns a

1332
01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 3: practice squad spot and then you just kind of see

1333
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:25,680
Speaker 3: how he continues to develop over time.

1334
01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:30,640
Speaker 2: You know, HBO has the Chicago Bears on their season

1335
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,840
Speaker 2: show with the Inside Football deal. You know, they should

1336
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,320
Speaker 2: have got the Bills. Yeah, they should have the Buffalo

1337
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 2: Bills with this right, it would be great. I'd love

1338
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:40,280
Speaker 2: to see this kid what he does and how he

1339
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 2: makes it. If it does make that would be the

1340
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,080
Speaker 2: story right there. I guess it's too late because they've

1341
01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 2: already picked the Bears. So we'll see. And the Bears

1342
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:47,800
Speaker 2: isn't a bad story, you know.

1343
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 3: With k the Bears is a better story. It's a

1344
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:54,960
Speaker 3: better story. The quarterbacks annoying them, Yeah, everyone ignoring them

1345
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 3: as a Super Bowl contender because of Caleb and all

1346
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:01,320
Speaker 3: the weapons that they brought in and Allen Roma Doonza.

1347
01:06:01,720 --> 01:06:04,040
Speaker 3: The defense played really well the last half of the season.

1348
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:06,400
Speaker 3: There's a lot of positive busts. It's a brand name.

1349
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 3: Remember they are a blue blood franchise. People have always

1350
01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:12,160
Speaker 3: wanted the Bears to be back. The league is better

1351
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 3: when the Bears are relevant. Well, this gives us an

1352
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 3: opportunity to have a preview of that. And if the

1353
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:20,320
Speaker 3: league could and the TV executives could give it they want.

1354
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 3: They would love to see the Bears turn out to

1355
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,000
Speaker 3: be what the Detroit Lions have been. Where they shot

1356
01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:28,800
Speaker 3: the behind the scenes footage of the Lions one year

1357
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:31,440
Speaker 3: in training camp, and then two years later they're one

1358
01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 3: of the hottest teams in football. For the Bears, if

1359
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 3: they could enjoy a similar plight, the league would love

1360
01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:39,480
Speaker 3: that because it would give us a little behind the

1361
01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:42,240
Speaker 3: curtain access to the team that we is gonna talk

1362
01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:43,880
Speaker 3: about a lot because they're one of the better teams

1363
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:44,360
Speaker 3: in the league.

1364

Speaker 8: the Cardinals six to one, but did lose Ranger Suarez.

1404
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 8: He got hit in his hand by a line drive,

1405
01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:03,919
Speaker 8: so he had to leave the game, and the Phillies

1406
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:06,200
Speaker 8: hoping that Rangers is not gonna be out too long

1407
01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:08,640
Speaker 8: because he's been out standing so far this season. A

1408
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:12,400
Speaker 8: nine to one record to begin play, and then WNBA

1409
01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 8: on Saturday. It was only one game, but it was

1410
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:17,599
Speaker 8: one of the most anticipated matchups of the early part

1411
01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:20,320
Speaker 8: of the season, as the Indiana Fever beat the Chicago

1412
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:24,080
Speaker 8: Sky seventy one seventy Caitlin Clark eleven points, a rebound,

1413
01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:27,240
Speaker 8: six assists, Angel Reese two for nine shooting in the basketball,

1414
01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 8: but did bring down thirteen boards. U weave a Champions

1415
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 8: League Soccer Real Madrid wins it against Dortmund two nil

1416
01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 8: Women's College World Series. Top seeded Texas beats Florida ten

1417
01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 8: to nothing and second seat at Oklahoma over Ucla won

1418
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:45,560
Speaker 8: nothing and CAA baseball tournament. The big upset Arizona eliminated

1419
01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 8: by Dallas Baptist who wins that one seven to nothing.

1420
01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,720
Speaker 8: Third seed A Texas in and beats Texas and extra

1421
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:54,919
Speaker 8: innings four to two. Back to you guys, thanks kevseeing

1422
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 8: and now all right playing stay away. That's right around

1423
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:57,320
Speaker 8: the corner.

1424
01:09:57,400 --> 01:09:59,720
Speaker 2: He's Buckie Brooks. I'm Andy Ferman. And by the way,

1425
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,360
Speaker 2: by the betting coming up in about several minutes from now.

1426
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 2: You know, I heard that the sports cast Buck that

1427
01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:08,040
Speaker 2: the Cubs in the Reds can imagine winning three and

1428
01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:10,800
Speaker 2: a half hours for a baseball game to start. That's disgusting,

1429
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:14,640
Speaker 2: that's disc I mean, really and truly. And the commissioner

1430
01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 2: wants to speed up the game, and I get it.

1431
01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:19,960
Speaker 2: I mean people want things like right now. You want

1432
01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 2: you know, instant coffee, you want your classes done in

1433
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:24,559
Speaker 2: an hour, you want everything right now, right this second.

1434
01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 2: And you're gonna sit three and a half hours at

1435
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:29,200
Speaker 2: Wrigley Field in the rain to watch a baseball game. Really, really,

1436
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:31,800
Speaker 2: you gotta have your head examined. Call a freaking game.

1437
01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:34,080
Speaker 2: I don't get it. I mean, I'd like to see

1438
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:36,360
Speaker 2: how many people hung around to stay and watch that

1439
01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:39,960
Speaker 2: ball game. It's a meaningless game. Would you have stayed

1440
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:42,200
Speaker 2: three and a half hours to wait for the first pitch?

1441
01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,240
Speaker 2: I'm not, I'm not. I mean, I guess the concession

1442
01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:47,599
Speaker 2: is loved. It came on selling beer during the time.

1443
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:48,040
Speaker 2: I guess.

1444
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah, no, I wouldn't. I wouldn't wait

1445
01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 3: that long. There's not a game that I would I

1446
01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:57,680
Speaker 3: would that a regular season game that I would stay

1447
01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:00,960
Speaker 3: around like I would have to move on. Yeah, that's crazy.

1448
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:04,479
Speaker 2: It's crazy. Really, it's craazy. Look, let's talk about this

1449
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:08,120
Speaker 2: verses saying playing stay away over here. Talk about the

1450
01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:11,439
Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens. They're practicing right now most of this spring

1451
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:15,200
Speaker 2: without the NFL's reigning MVP. Their quarterback Lamar Jackson, has

1452
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 2: been absent for four of the teams first five voluntary

1453
01:11:19,479 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 2: organized team activities. Okay, is that a big deal because

1454
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 2: it's voluntary, you don't have to go. I mean, and

1455
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 2: you mentioned early on today that OTA is maybe on

1456
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:31,240
Speaker 2: the way out, you know, and certainly makes a lot

1457
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:32,720
Speaker 2: of sense if they do get rid of them. So

1458
01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,320
Speaker 2: it's voluntary, there's no big deal. I know people are

1459
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,240
Speaker 2: holding out. You could stay away for two reasons. Number one,

1460
01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:41,120
Speaker 2: you don't want to go, but number two, like the

1461
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:44,400
Speaker 2: T Higgins in Cincinnati, he's just holding out. Now, if

1462
01:11:44,479 --> 01:11:47,160
Speaker 2: you hold out, what does that do for team morale?

1463
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,120
Speaker 2: I mean the other team guys that the teammates are saying, hey,

1464
01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:52,080
Speaker 2: come on, we need you, you know, come on play.

1465
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:54,640
Speaker 2: I mean, are you looked at as a pariah or

1466
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:58,040
Speaker 2: they respect you because hey, look, you're standing in your ground.

1467
01:11:58,280 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 2: You want more money, you want a better contract.

1468
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,040
Speaker 3: Okay, so two different things at play. So T Higgins. First,

1469
01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 3: T Higgins is, what's the restrict prison. He hasn't signed

1470
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 3: his tender, so he doesn't have to come in. There's

1471
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,320
Speaker 3: no such thing as a holdout in his case. He

1472
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:18,760
Speaker 3: just hasn't been picked up. So until he signs his deal,

1473
01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:21,599
Speaker 3: it's not considered a holdout. It's just that the team

1474
01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:23,439
Speaker 3: would just take it as in terms of the players,

1475
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 3: and he's just handling business. He's just doing his own thing,

1476
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:29,720
Speaker 3: So that's not as big of a deal. Because he

1477
01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:34,320
Speaker 3: was franchise tagged and because he hasn't signed it. He's

1478
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:36,760
Speaker 3: under knowing the obligation to be at any of these

1479
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:42,200
Speaker 3: workouts or whatever. With Lamar Jackson. Look, it's voluntary, but

1480
01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:45,719
Speaker 3: I will tell you the starting quarterback, the franchise quarterback,

1481
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:49,760
Speaker 3: is expected to be there. Like in most situations, the

1482
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:52,000
Speaker 3: quarterback is there. He's the leader of the team. He

1483
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:54,519
Speaker 3: kind of makes it happen, and you want him there.

1484
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:56,560
Speaker 3: You want Lamar Jackson there to make sure that he

1485
01:12:56,680 --> 01:12:58,679
Speaker 3: not only knows the ins and outs of the offense,

1486
01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 3: but he's developing the industry with the players around him,

1487
01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:05,840
Speaker 3: not only the offensive line in terms of getting their protection,

1488
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:09,640
Speaker 3: calls and stuff right, but the rhythm with the receivers

1489
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:13,640
Speaker 3: on the perimeter. To me, even though it's voluntary, I

1490
01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:16,479
Speaker 3: would bet you internally from a coaching standpoint, you're a

1491
01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:19,280
Speaker 3: little disappointed that he's not there. You like to think

1492
01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 3: that your best player is going to be the leader

1493
01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:24,920
Speaker 3: in the clubhouse and he is going to be there

1494
01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:27,960
Speaker 3: to show everyone how to get it done. It's not

1495
01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:30,920
Speaker 3: a major concern. It's just a little more disappointing that. Look,

1496
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:33,080
Speaker 3: he's a franchise quarterback. You paid him a bunch of money.

1497
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:35,040
Speaker 3: You kind of expect him to take the league on

1498
01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:35,800
Speaker 3: some of these things.

1499
01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:38,640
Speaker 2: You've been around the block, you played the game, you

1500
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 2: were in the National Football League. You know what reason

1501
01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:46,080
Speaker 2: would Lamar Jackson have to not show up? Why wouldn't

1502
01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,120
Speaker 2: he want to show up even if it came and

1503
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:49,880
Speaker 2: didn't play, just to be there.

1504
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:53,800
Speaker 3: It depends. I mean, like sometimes guys have personal things

1505
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:55,680
Speaker 3: going on, Like we're not privy to what's going on

1506
01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:58,240
Speaker 3: in his family life background. Maybe he's taking care of

1507
01:13:58,360 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 3: some business as it relates to that. You just don't know.

1508
01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:05,080
Speaker 3: But I would say in a perfect world, if you

1509
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:08,400
Speaker 3: don't have anything going on like that, then you would

1510
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:11,320
Speaker 3: like him to be there. You know, and you understand it.

1511
01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:13,040
Speaker 3: If you have some family stuff that he has to

1512
01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:15,439
Speaker 3: take care if he has to take care of some business, cool,

1513
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:19,080
Speaker 3: But in a perfect world, you want your starting quarterback

1514
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,360
Speaker 3: to be there because as he goes, the rest of

1515
01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:26,880
Speaker 3: the team goes, and it's critical that he and the

1516
01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,800
Speaker 3: offense are on the same page. You want this team

1517
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 3: to hit the ground running. There's enough time to do

1518
01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:35,679
Speaker 3: it in training camp and ultimately dese practice won't quote

1519
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:37,960
Speaker 3: unquote matter, but you would like to see him there.

1520
01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 2: And it's funny what you just said is almost a

1521
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:44,120
Speaker 2: mirror image of what the Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. Really,

1522
01:14:44,160 --> 01:14:46,280
Speaker 2: he said, quote, it's this time of the year, it's

1523
01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:49,160
Speaker 2: voluntary time. It's really not something that we can comment on.

1524
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:51,600
Speaker 2: We can't and that's just the time of year that

1525
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 2: it is. So I can't speak for anybody that's just

1526
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:56,280
Speaker 2: not here. So he said the right things. I'm sure

1527
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:57,720
Speaker 2: in the heart of hearts he'd love to have seen

1528
01:14:57,720 --> 01:14:59,400
Speaker 2: it in there, but there's nothing he could do about it.

1529
01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,320
Speaker 2: So the OTAs, as you mentioned early on and you

1530
01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:04,920
Speaker 2: wrote about it Friday, they could be on the way

1531
01:15:04,960 --> 01:15:06,800
Speaker 2: out and we'll get to that later on. But I

1532
01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:08,400
Speaker 2: think it's a good deal that they get him out

1533
01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:10,880
Speaker 2: of there. Really, if no one's going to show up,

1534
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,040
Speaker 2: why have them, I mean, really, there's.

1535
01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:16,880
Speaker 3: No need for him right, No, that it is the

1536
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:18,560
Speaker 3: need to it, there's a benefit to him. I just

1537
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:22,200
Speaker 3: think you can just read, you can change the calendar

1538
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:24,040
Speaker 3: to make it more beneficial and we can continue to

1539
01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:24,920
Speaker 3: talk about that later on.

1540

1564
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 7: excuse me. We're starting today with bowls, which actually not

1565
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:36,280
Speaker 7: to be confused with bowling. This is actually called bowls.

1566
01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 7: It's also called lawn bowling. It's played on grass.

1567
01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:41,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have no lawn bowling.

1568
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:45,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's big in the UK, I think. So we

1569
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:49,000
Speaker 7: have Craig Newton at minus one eighteen, who's facing off

1570
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:52,400
Speaker 7: against Matt Wires, who's also minus one eighteen. Bucky, who

1571
01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:55,240
Speaker 7: you got, Oh, let's go with Craig Newton.

1572
01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:56,680
Speaker 3: You caught his name first. I'm gonna go with him.

1573
01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:58,960
Speaker 3: Sounds like you have some inside scoop. So I'm gona trust.

1574
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:01,719
Speaker 3: I'm gonna lean on your instant because you Craig.

1575
01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:02,240
Speaker 1: New all right.

1576
01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,679
Speaker 7: I don't know. I don't know if that's a winning strategy, Bucky.

1577
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,640
Speaker 2: But but Wayne Newton? What about Wayne Newton? We get

1578
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:08,360
Speaker 2: Wayne Noon in there.

1579
01:17:08,400 --> 01:17:11,639
Speaker 7: Maybe that's just no, no, no, it's it's Wires versus Newton.

1580
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,200
Speaker 7: But uh, how does he spell his name w y

1581
01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 7: e r s. It's actually w h y e r S.

1582
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:18,880
Speaker 2: I'll take him because he's unique.

1583
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:19,760
Speaker 1: I like the spell.

1584
01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 2: I'll take Wires.

1585
01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:23,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, kind of similar to our guy Kevin wired Over

1586
01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:24,360
Speaker 7: in the Update studio.

1587
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:26,280

1588
01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:29,360
Speaker 2: change back to Newton really because I don't think Kevin

1589
01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:33,240
Speaker 2: Wire is much of an athlete. All right, Next, I'm

1602
01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,839

Speaker 2: Are you here?

Speaker 7: Next German basketball, we have the Bundesliga semi finals. Now, uh,

1611
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:35,840
Speaker 7: Wurzburg versus Bayern Munich. Now this is not to be

1612
01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:39,519
Speaker 7: confused with the football club. This is basketball. Remember, so

1613
01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:43,360
Speaker 7: plus three twenty for Wurzburg and UH minus four thirty

1614
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:45,120
Speaker 7: four for Bayern Munich. Bucky.

1615
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:49,000
Speaker 3: Uh, that's easy. I mean, if they're there, their football

1616
01:18:49,040 --> 01:18:50,840
Speaker 3: team is good, then the basketball team also has to

1617
01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:52,479
Speaker 3: be good. So let's go with Bayern Munich.

1618
01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 2: It's a power. When I was working for the Ford

1619
01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:59,559
Speaker 2: Little Delle Striker soccer team, we had a soccer player

1620
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,760
Speaker 2: who played for Byron Muna, Gerd Mueller. They called him

1621
01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,840
Speaker 2: the Bomber. He was tremendous. But I'm not taking him

1622
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:08,519
Speaker 2: because I don't want to bite him. I want Worsburg.

1623
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 2: Despite that, Despite despite Gerd Mueller the Bomber, I'm going

1624
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:13,840
Speaker 2: Worsburg all right.

1625
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,439
Speaker 7: All right, Another German basketball matchup. This is the other

1626
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:20,040
Speaker 7: semi finals. So the other conference, we have Chemnitz versus

1627
01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:23,000
Speaker 7: ALBA Berlin. And you will start with you on this one.

1628
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:25,640
Speaker 2: Albert Berlin, because they got two names. If you got

1629
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:29,120
Speaker 2: two names, you're big, you're better, is good. You got

1630
01:19:29,160 --> 01:19:32,040
Speaker 2: to Albert Berlin is bigger than one. Yeah, two is

1631
01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:32,599
Speaker 2: better than one.

1632
01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:33,880
Speaker 7: You're right, Bucky?

1633
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:38,720
Speaker 3: Uh, just easy, shimnitz shimnitz. I just I just like it.

1634
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:40,000
Speaker 3: I just like when you have a whole bunch of

1635
01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:41,000
Speaker 3: consonants in your name.

1636
01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:44,479
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna go with this, easy call, all right.

1637
01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:48,400
Speaker 7: And lastly, we have field hockey. The Yeah, the Nation's

1638
01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:51,439
Speaker 7: Cup group stage is being held in Poland, so we

1639
01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:54,559
Speaker 7: have France at minus one sixty four versus Malaysia at

1640
01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:57,120
Speaker 7: plus two sixty Bucky, we will start with you.

1641
01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:00,960
Speaker 3: Oh, let's go with France. I took French in sixth

1642
01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:02,840
Speaker 3: grade because it was a romance language, So I'm gonna

1643
01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:03,400
Speaker 3: go with it again.

1644
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:07,080
Speaker 2: You're a romantic. We we know that Bucky Brooks is

1645
01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:11,479
Speaker 2: a romantic, really a lover, all right. And I guess

1646
01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:15,200
Speaker 2: I'm not a Malaysia and I gotta go with Malaysia.

1647
01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:17,479
Speaker 2: I don't know why. I just I don't see the

1648
01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:20,000
Speaker 2: Frenchman playing field hockey for some reason. I just can't

1649
01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:22,600
Speaker 2: because they're eating cheese and wine. You don't do that

1650
01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:25,599
Speaker 2: playing field hockey. And I'm saying this. Maybe I'm getting

1651
01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:27,439
Speaker 2: too deep into these situations, aren't they?

1652

1679
01:21:45,240 --> 01:21:47,280
Speaker 2: don't know how he does it. I mean, I hear

1680
01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 2: the top of the owl, bottom of the hour, sports updates,

1681
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,640
Speaker 2: and these names in tennis. I don't know if he

1682
01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:55,120
Speaker 2: puts them out phonetically. I could, I wouldn't read him.

1683
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:56,760
Speaker 2: I would just say, if you want to find out,

1684
01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:58,960
Speaker 2: go to our website. I would never read those names.

1685
01:21:59,080 --> 01:22:01,799
Speaker 2: I couldn't pronounce them. It's crazy, it really is. Now

1686
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:03,360
Speaker 2: you do it, Kenvy, you do a hell of a job.

1687
01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:05,600
Speaker 2: I just can't do it. And I do want to

1688
01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,920
Speaker 2: say something, and I haven't done this in a real

1689
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:11,240
Speaker 2: long time. I want to wish a good friend. He's

1690
01:22:11,280 --> 01:22:14,439
Speaker 2: the leading he has more high school wins in college

1691
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:18,439
Speaker 2: and basketball high school coaching basketball than anybody in northern Kentucky.

1692
01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:21,320
Speaker 2: He's been under the weather ladies in the hospital for

1693
01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 2: a while. Ken Shields. Kenny Shields coach basketball at Northern

1694
01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:28,280
Speaker 2: Kentucky University. He listens every Sunday. He's a great friend

1695
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:30,639
Speaker 2: and I know he's listening now and get better. Kenny,

1696
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:34,160
Speaker 2: He's the main man. Kenny Shields. He coached NKU, took

1697
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:36,479
Speaker 2: the NKU Norse when they were Division two to the

1698
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:39,880
Speaker 2: National Tournament Division two two years in a row, and

1699
01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:43,040
Speaker 2: coached high school basketball for years in Northern Kentucky. Has

1700
01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:45,200
Speaker 2: more wins something like eight nine hundred wins or whatever

1701
01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,880
Speaker 2: it may be, more than anybody else in college in

1702
01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:51,040
Speaker 2: high school basketball. So good for him. Now now to

1703
01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:54,600
Speaker 2: the task at hand, which basically is football. And we

1704
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,439
Speaker 2: were talking about you. Basically you wrote about this Friday

1705
01:22:58,280 --> 01:23:01,760
Speaker 2: NFL dot com Bucket Brooks Scholl down the writers OTAs

1706
01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:03,600
Speaker 2: on the way out and you say it's going to

1707
01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:06,280
Speaker 2: make a lot of sense. Tell us basically, what OTAs

1708
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:09,000
Speaker 2: are for the uninformed and why would they make a

1709
01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:10,400
Speaker 2: lot of sense to get rid of them?

1710
01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:17,040
Speaker 3: Well, OTA's are They call them organized team activities. Basically,

1711
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 3: OTAs are a practice. Ltas are a practice without pads.

1712
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:24,880
Speaker 3: When you go to an OTA, if you're watching, you'll

1713
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:27,680
Speaker 3: see a team go through individual drills, you see them

1714
01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:30,880
Speaker 3: go through group drills, special teams practice will be a

1715
01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:33,439
Speaker 3: part of it, and then they'll finish with your seven

1716
01:23:33,520 --> 01:23:36,840
Speaker 3: on seven, which is take the offensive and defensive lineman out.

1717
01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:39,040
Speaker 3: You just got a perimeter. They're throwing the ball all

1718
01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:41,800
Speaker 3: over the yard. Defense is playing coverage running to the ball,

1719
01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:44,719
Speaker 3: and then you have eleven on eleven drills, which looks

1720
01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:48,000
Speaker 3: like football. You have the offense and defense going against

1721
01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:51,080
Speaker 3: plays they don't have on pads. But uh, it's one

1722
01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:52,600
Speaker 3: of those things where you're a were just trying to

1723
01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:58,120
Speaker 3: get some work. The league wants to take eliminate OTAs

1724
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:02,360
Speaker 3: and change the offseason count because as it's presently constructed,

1725
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:06,800
Speaker 3: you go to off season workouts starting mid April. Well,

1726
01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:09,719
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl ends now near the end of February,

1727
01:24:09,840 --> 01:24:12,479
Speaker 3: so there's about a six week off period before you

1728
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:16,599
Speaker 3: go to off season program. And then the program goes

1729
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:20,120
Speaker 3: in three phases. You have Phase one, where you only

1730
01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:22,599
Speaker 3: can have meetings, so the guys are lifting, they can

1731
01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:24,960
Speaker 3: only have meetings that last for a few weeks. Then

1732
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:26,800
Speaker 3: you have Phase two, where they can go on the

1733
01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:29,960
Speaker 3: field and they can do individual drills on the grass

1734
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 3: at the facility, but you can't do any team things.

1735
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:35,880
Speaker 3: And then Phase three, which is when we have OTAs,

1736
01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:39,840
Speaker 3: that's when you can't have individual and team drills. It

1737
01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:43,679
Speaker 3: can be in a competitive environment no pads on limited contact,

1738
01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:46,360
Speaker 3: but it's as close as you can get to practicing

1739
01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:49,439
Speaker 3: like you would in training camp without some of the

1740
01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:52,320
Speaker 3: rigors of it. And what the league in the NFLPA

1741
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:54,880
Speaker 3: would like to do is change the calendar. So instead

1742
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:57,800
Speaker 3: of starting in mid April, they want to kick it

1743
01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:01,360
Speaker 3: back to sometime in June or June July and allow

1744
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:04,160
Speaker 3: the team to gradually ramp up the training camp. So

1745
01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:06,960
Speaker 3: once the guys come in in June or July, they

1746
01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 3: stay pretty much with the team and everything is about

1747
01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:13,880
Speaker 3: building it up and to training camp kicks off at

1748
01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:15,639
Speaker 3: the end of July. So two things.

1749
01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:18,360
Speaker 2: Training camp will start earlier in the summer rather than

1750
01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:20,639
Speaker 2: like a late July it was start made right after

1751
01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:23,400
Speaker 2: the fourth of July probably, And would this have to

1752
01:25:23,439 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 2: be approved by the PA Players Association, Well.

1753
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:29,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, the PA is the one that is actually pitching it.

1754
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:32,519
Speaker 3: They're proposing it, so yes, because it's part of the

1755
01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:37,880
Speaker 3: collective bargaining agreement. Yes, the players and the management council

1756
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:41,639
Speaker 3: the owners would have to approve it. The pros would

1757
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:44,320
Speaker 3: be this would probably be the start of setting the

1758
01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:46,479
Speaker 3: framework in place for the team to go to an

1759
01:25:46,640 --> 01:25:51,280
Speaker 3: eighteen game schedule with two preseason games two by weeks,

1760
01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:55,080
Speaker 3: and it would all be a part of that. When

1761
01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:58,839
Speaker 3: it originally hit Twitter, there are a lot of pushback

1762
01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:01,880
Speaker 3: from players who didn't lie in those things. There were

1763
01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:03,960
Speaker 3: some scouts that didn't like it because they said it

1764
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:06,599
Speaker 3: interrupted what normally would be the vacation time. You don't

1765
01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,400
Speaker 3: get the break that you normally get before the summer.

1766
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:13,040
Speaker 3: But to me, I think it's more sensible because the

1767
01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:17,000
Speaker 3: six week layoff between the end of OTA's Now and

1768
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:20,880
Speaker 3: the beginning of training camp, you have guys going independently

1769
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:23,320
Speaker 3: on their own. When you come back and you report

1770
01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:25,479
Speaker 3: the first day of physicals, you didn't have a day

1771
01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:27,439
Speaker 3: of meetings, and then the third day you're at it,

1772
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:30,679
Speaker 3: you're practicing. And the one thing that I know about coaches,

1773
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,080
Speaker 3: they want one hundred miles an hour from the jump.

1774
01:26:33,400 --> 01:26:36,080
Speaker 3: So after a six week layoff, you jump right back

1775
01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:39,519
Speaker 3: into training camp and you expected to go right away

1776
01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:43,200
Speaker 3: at what we call NFL intensity. The reason why we

1777
01:26:43,280 --> 01:26:45,920
Speaker 3: see these injuries might be due to the lack of

1778
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:51,839
Speaker 3: acclimation between a not doing anything to now doing everything

1779
01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:54,760
Speaker 3: full speed. Now you would eliminate that because you would

1780
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:56,960
Speaker 3: have the guys and you could gradually escalate it. To me,

1781
01:26:57,080 --> 01:26:59,720
Speaker 3: it makes more sense than the stop and starts that

1782
01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:01,799
Speaker 3: you consistently see in the current system.

1783
01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:04,120
Speaker 2: Kind Of like spring training in baseball, you come in

1784
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:05,760
Speaker 2: there and work yourself into shape a little bit.

1785
01:27:06,560 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 3: That is exactly what it would be like. It would

1786
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:12,000
Speaker 3: be like spring training in baseball, where they're there, they

1787
01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 3: kind of come around. It's loosey goosey. Then you kind

1788
01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:17,360
Speaker 3: of get into it, you play, play some games, and

1789
01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:19,800
Speaker 3: then you hit the regular season running like that.

1790
01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:21,559
Speaker 2: You know, how come they don't do well? I guess

1791
01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:24,240
Speaker 2: they do it in college, right well, spring spring workouts

1792
01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:27,200
Speaker 2: in college and then kind of like did down into

1793
01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:30,280
Speaker 2: what August? They don't do anything really till August and

1794
01:27:30,360 --> 01:27:33,240
Speaker 2: they go right into it. There's no preseason games in

1795
01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:34,200
Speaker 2: college football.

1796
01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:38,120
Speaker 3: I guess no, there's no preseason. No, they're no preseason games.

1797
01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:40,720
Speaker 3: But you know what the difference is in college the

1798
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,920
Speaker 3: players are always around. There is never a time in

1799
01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:47,559
Speaker 3: college where the players are going for six weeks. They

1800
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:50,200
Speaker 3: may not be practicing football, but they're always with the

1801
01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:53,880
Speaker 3: strength and conditioning coach they're always lifting, they're always working

1802
01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:57,120
Speaker 3: on speed and agility to development all of those things.

1803
01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,960
Speaker 3: But there's never a six week period where you're like, hey, guys,

1804
01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:02,160
Speaker 3: let's get out the building. We won't see you come

1805
01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:04,240
Speaker 3: back and we're right back at it. That never happens.

1806
01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:07,320
Speaker 3: So the NFL is the only time where you have

1807
01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:11,840
Speaker 3: these long, extended breaks. And then even in thinking about basketball,

1808
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:16,200
Speaker 3: basketball will have a three week or three month period

1809
01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:20,000
Speaker 3: where they're off, but the guys start playing right away

1810
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,759
Speaker 3: and you have summer League. Now that might not include

1811
01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:25,240
Speaker 3: the Vets, but then there's a break, and then you

1812
01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:28,280
Speaker 3: have the run up to training camp. This is kind

1813
01:28:28,320 --> 01:28:30,400
Speaker 3: of how it goes interesting.

1814
01:28:30,120 --> 01:28:31,880
Speaker 2: We speaking of college, I got to put this is

1815
01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:35,960
Speaker 2: on the side. You're North Carolina Tarhells beat my school

1816
01:28:36,040 --> 01:28:37,920
Speaker 2: from Brooklyn, not that I went I didn't go there,

1817
01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:40,840
Speaker 2: but I lived in Brooklyn. Long Island University basically is

1818
01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:43,360
Speaker 2: based in Brooklyn, have a campus on Long Island, but

1819
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:45,360
Speaker 2: they also have one in Brooklyn, and they beat them

1820
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:48,280
Speaker 2: in baseball and the super Regionals just the I think

1821
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:49,559
Speaker 2: it was Friday night they played so.

1822
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:52,280
Speaker 3: Oh the Diamond Hills. That's when they had to walk

1823
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:55,360
Speaker 3: off Grand Slam to walk off Grand Slam to beat

1824
01:28:55,400 --> 01:28:58,360
Speaker 3: it because you guys were up on the right, they

1825
01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:00,439
Speaker 3: came down on the way to rally, found a way

1826
01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:01,120
Speaker 3: to rally and kind of.

1827
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:04,040
Speaker 2: Get the shocks of lu There you go, all right,

1828
01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:07,000
Speaker 2: I'll tell this football story. He was kind of scratched

1829
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:08,839
Speaker 2: my head when I read about it. This is Harrison

1830
01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:11,240
Speaker 2: Butker thing. It won't go away. I think the talk

1831
01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:13,560
Speaker 2: has honest a little bit, and it's great to me

1832
01:29:13,680 --> 01:29:16,600
Speaker 2: at least that Patrick Mahomes, a quarterback, his teammate on

1833
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,000
Speaker 2: the Chiefs and his coach Andy Reid supported him. He

1834
01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:21,080
Speaker 2: really did. And they may not have agreed with what

1835
01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:23,240
Speaker 2: he said in his statements, but they just support him.

1836
01:29:23,320 --> 01:29:24,880
Speaker 2: I think that's what a coach should do. And you

1837
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,600
Speaker 2: got to love that. When Butler was interviewed again, he

1838
01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:30,240
Speaker 2: doubled down when asked about it again recently. You know,

1839
01:29:30,360 --> 01:29:32,760
Speaker 2: I respect him for that. Look, that's his belief. Who

1840
01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:36,439
Speaker 2: was a Christian school, Catholic Roman Catholic school. He's Roman Catholic,

1841
01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:38,600
Speaker 2: that's his religion. And they asked him to speak and

1842
01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:40,880
Speaker 2: they got what they wanted to boom. I thought about

1843
01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:42,360
Speaker 2: it for a bit, and I thought about the coaching

1844
01:29:42,439 --> 01:29:46,160
Speaker 2: profession How does a coach handle off the field situations?

1845
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:49,599
Speaker 2: I think every coach is learned in extras and o's.

1846
01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 2: They know exces and o's. I mean, you put all

1847
01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:54,360
Speaker 2: these coaches in a room in football, I mean they'll

1848
01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:56,400
Speaker 2: all come out with a similar score, maybe once a

1849
01:29:56,439 --> 01:29:57,920
Speaker 2: little higher than the other. But they all know they're

1850
01:29:57,960 --> 01:30:00,160
Speaker 2: exs and o's, or they wouldn't be the coach. What

1851
01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:02,960
Speaker 2: separates a coach a good coach or a great coach

1852
01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:07,200
Speaker 2: is how do you handle the media off the field problems?

1853
01:30:07,560 --> 01:30:10,439
Speaker 2: They diffused them? Do you ignore? How is that done?

1854
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:12,639
Speaker 2: And did Andy Reid do the right thing? I think

1855
01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:14,880
Speaker 2: he did. I think that's how you win players over.

1856
01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:15,400
Speaker 2: I really do.

1857
01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:16,920
Speaker 4: So.

1858
01:30:17,800 --> 01:30:23,080
Speaker 3: What I want everyone to understand, whatever the divisiveness, that

1859
01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:28,840
Speaker 3: when issues come up, and people having different opinions, people

1860
01:30:28,960 --> 01:30:34,160
Speaker 3: having different political affiliations, people having just different beliefs in

1861
01:30:34,240 --> 01:30:37,639
Speaker 3: the locker room, all of that stuff is welcome and encouraged.

1862
01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:38,040
Speaker 7: Right.

1863
01:30:38,479 --> 01:30:42,400
Speaker 3: The beauty of the locker room at the NFL level

1864
01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,360
Speaker 3: and whatever sport or whatever is like, people take you

1865
01:30:45,479 --> 01:30:47,000
Speaker 3: as you are, and they accept you as you are.

1866
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:50,080
Speaker 3: They respect your opinion even though they may disagree with

1867
01:30:50,200 --> 01:30:53,719
Speaker 3: your opinion, and so even though the comments that Harrison

1868
01:30:53,760 --> 01:30:58,800
Speaker 3: Bucker made were controversial and they drew a lightning rout

1869
01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:03,599
Speaker 3: of criticism to him, the team will support him as

1870
01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:07,040
Speaker 3: a teammate even though they may not agree with his viewpoint,

1871
01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:09,320
Speaker 3: because everyone in the locker room doesn't have the same

1872
01:31:09,880 --> 01:31:13,439
Speaker 3: opinion on anything. And that's what you saw. You saw

1873
01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:17,040
Speaker 3: Travis Kelce, you saw Patrick Mahomes say. They didn't necessarily

1874
01:31:17,320 --> 01:31:19,920
Speaker 3: agree with what he said, but they respect him as

1875
01:31:19,960 --> 01:31:23,720
Speaker 3: a teammate, so they'll support him as a teammate. And ultimately,

1876
01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:27,960
Speaker 3: when you talk about free speech in those things, in essence,

1877
01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:32,360
Speaker 3: that is what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to

1878
01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:35,720
Speaker 3: be free to have your opinion, to say what you

1879
01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:38,880
Speaker 3: want to say, and people should respect that that right

1880
01:31:39,439 --> 01:31:42,600
Speaker 3: even though you disagree with it. It shouldn't be a cancelation.

1881
01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:45,640
Speaker 3: It should be okay, you believe that, I believe this,

1882
01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 3: Maybe we agree to disagree. That's where the locker room

1883
01:31:51,120 --> 01:31:54,120
Speaker 3: should be more like the fabric of the country, where

1884
01:31:54,160 --> 01:31:57,800
Speaker 3: you are able to have disagreements and disputes without it

1885
01:31:57,960 --> 01:32:02,679
Speaker 3: being a thing that becomes personal and divisive amongst the team.

1886
01:32:03,640 --> 01:32:05,400
Speaker 2: You know, I've always said I think that we could

1887
01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:08,080
Speaker 2: agree to disagree, but we don't have to be disagreeable.

1888
01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:10,479
Speaker 2: That's the key right there. And now you hit it

1889
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:12,639
Speaker 2: right on the head at the nation right now, there

1890
01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:14,800
Speaker 2: are relatives, there are family members that don't talk to

1891
01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:17,880
Speaker 2: one another because of political situations. I mean, it's it's crazy,

1892
01:32:18,120 --> 01:32:19,519
Speaker 2: but that's the way we are right now in our

1893
01:32:19,600 --> 01:32:21,720
Speaker 2: nation and are not going down that road. But I

1894
01:32:21,760 --> 01:32:24,160
Speaker 2: will say this, one thing that's been ignored by the

1895
01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:27,400
Speaker 2: national media is this story. The Harrison Bucker thing really

1896
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:31,160
Speaker 2: and truly was like wildfire. It's unbelievable. But there's another

1897
01:32:31,240 --> 01:32:34,160
Speaker 2: story with another kicker in the National Football League that

1898
01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:37,479
Speaker 2: really and truly has gone really under the radar. Two

1899
01:32:37,560 --> 01:32:41,400
Speaker 2: women have accused NFL kicker Brandon McManus of sexually assaulting

1900
01:32:41,439 --> 01:32:43,200
Speaker 2: them while he was on a team flight to London

1901
01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:47,080
Speaker 2: last September for your Jacksonville Did you know him for

1902
01:32:47,160 --> 01:32:49,000
Speaker 2: your Jacksonville jet? Did you go to that trip? Did

1903
01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:50,000
Speaker 2: you go to London with them?

1904
01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:52,760
Speaker 3: I did. I didn't go on to Charter though I

1905
01:32:53,200 --> 01:32:53,919
Speaker 3: flew independently.

1906
01:32:54,439 --> 01:32:58,320
Speaker 2: Look lucky for you. Lucky for you? Really the Jacksonville

1907
01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:00,760
Speaker 2: Jaguars is According to a lawsuit, The women were identified

1908
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:03,559
Speaker 2: as Jane Doe one Jane Doe two in the lawsuit,

1909
01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:07,040
Speaker 2: they worked as flight attendants on the Jaguars team charted

1910
01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:09,439
Speaker 2: flight this is back on September the twenty eighth. Both

1911
01:33:09,479 --> 01:33:12,160
Speaker 2: women claim that during meal service on the flight, McManus

1912
01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:15,400
Speaker 2: he used the term grinded against them. He also tried

1913
01:33:15,439 --> 01:33:18,120
Speaker 2: to kiss Jane Doe one earlier during the flight of

1914
01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:21,000
Speaker 2: coin to the lawsuit, and McManus now has signed a

1915
01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:24,040
Speaker 2: contract recently to join the Washington Commanders. He denies the

1916
01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:27,759
Speaker 2: allegations presented in the lawsuit, and attorney for McManus disputes

1917
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:30,519
Speaker 2: the women's accounts. It's amazing to me. Its amazing to

1918
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:34,439
Speaker 2: me that really and truly this is a is a story, really,

1919
01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:38,120
Speaker 2: but it doesn't in my mind, maybe fit the narrative

1920
01:33:38,400 --> 01:33:41,600
Speaker 2: of our country right now, where people agreed to disagree

1921
01:33:41,680 --> 01:33:44,360
Speaker 2: on various topics, where this is almost i hate to

1922
01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:49,439
Speaker 2: say it, stories like this with abuse and attacking women.

1923
01:33:49,479 --> 01:33:52,519
Speaker 2: It's almost kind of like commonplace in the world of sports.

1924
01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,639
Speaker 2: But it doesn't fit the narrative where what Butner's does.

1925
01:33:56,479 --> 01:33:57,960
Speaker 2: Do you hear where I'm coming from on that?

1926
01:33:58,040 --> 01:34:01,759
Speaker 3: Do you agree? Uh, you're saying that it hasn't received

1927
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:06,000
Speaker 3: as much attention as to Harrison Buckner stuff. Well, I

1928
01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:08,599
Speaker 3: think I think there are two different things at play.

1929
01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:15,599
Speaker 3: One Harrison Buckner's commencement address because of the language, because

1930
01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:17,960
Speaker 3: of the way that it clicked and it went, everyone

1931
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:21,680
Speaker 3: had an opportunity to see that. Unfortunately, this situation with

1932
01:34:21,840 --> 01:34:26,480
Speaker 3: Brandon McManus, because it's a he said, she said situation

1933
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:29,720
Speaker 3: that everyone was in privy to because you just hear

1934
01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:31,920
Speaker 3: the allegations. It wasn't like we all were on the

1935
01:34:31,960 --> 01:34:36,000
Speaker 3: plane or saw Brandon McManus conducting himself in a certain way,

1936
01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:38,760
Speaker 3: So we we don't do that where we actually had

1937
01:34:38,760 --> 01:34:42,040
Speaker 3: a chance to see Harrison give his speech. We heard

1938
01:34:42,160 --> 01:34:45,080
Speaker 3: his words and all of the intent. That's going to.

1939
01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:47,120
Speaker 2: Disagree for a second, I'll tell you why. I say

1940
01:34:47,160 --> 01:34:49,479
Speaker 2: that maybe on way off Basie on this, but you say,

1941
01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:52,000
Speaker 2: no one said this was on a plane. It's like

1942
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:53,760
Speaker 2: there weren't any witnesses it was on a plane. Where

1943
01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:56,519
Speaker 2: were the teammates, where were the coaches? Someone on this plane?

1944
01:34:56,560 --> 01:34:57,120
Speaker 2: How to see this?

1945
01:34:57,280 --> 01:35:00,559
Speaker 3: I mean, I know one said just yeah, but they

1946
01:35:00,680 --> 01:35:02,680
Speaker 3: just filed. They just filed the suit and it's a

1947
01:35:02,720 --> 01:35:05,160
Speaker 3: civil suit, not a criminal suit. So if it was

1948
01:35:05,240 --> 01:35:07,840
Speaker 3: a criminal thing. It would have been filed like more

1949
01:35:07,920 --> 01:35:10,360
Speaker 3: immediately and then there would have been action. But because

1950
01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:15,320
Speaker 3: it's civil and it's one seeking damages or in a

1951
01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:18,080
Speaker 3: reward for the damages on the emotional stress and harm

1952
01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:20,560
Speaker 3: that was caused to the women based on that, like

1953
01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:23,400
Speaker 3: no one knew. Doug Peterson just said that he was

1954
01:35:23,640 --> 01:35:27,519
Speaker 3: just aware, just made aware of the allegations because none

1955
01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:29,920
Speaker 3: of this came to light and toil the women filed

1956
01:35:30,000 --> 01:35:32,640
Speaker 3: the suit and so that's why. So it's not like

1957
01:35:33,320 --> 01:35:36,120
Speaker 3: we as the American public, were on the plane where

1958
01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:39,519
Speaker 3: Brandon mcnimannus, the team and the teammates were on the plane,

1959
01:35:39,560 --> 01:35:42,000
Speaker 3: and they certainly would do a thing where they do

1960
01:35:42,160 --> 01:35:44,200
Speaker 3: discovery and they talk to the witnesses and the people

1961
01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:46,320
Speaker 3: that were on the plane in those things. But it's

1962
01:35:46,439 --> 01:35:50,360
Speaker 3: different than what Harrison Buckman was doing because we saw it.

1963
01:35:50,880 --> 01:35:53,759
Speaker 3: We saw it, and so there's an immediate reaction. Whenever

1964
01:35:53,800 --> 01:35:57,240
Speaker 3: we see anything, we have an opinion, whether people ask

1965
01:35:57,320 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 3: us for our opinion or not, we have an opinion

1966
01:35:59,439 --> 01:36:01,760
Speaker 3: on a situation and things that we've seen we didn't

1967
01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:04,880
Speaker 3: see the Brandon McManus thin. That's why we don't really

1968
01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:05,800
Speaker 3: have a strong opinion on it.

1969
01:36:06,040 --> 01:36:08,519
Speaker 2: This is crazy. Really, you make a world of sense

1970
01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:12,120
Speaker 2: when you say that the nation the world saw Harrison Bucker,

1971
01:36:12,320 --> 01:36:14,200
Speaker 2: and everybody's got to have an opinion, yay or ay.

1972
01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:16,560
Speaker 2: We like him, we hate him, you know, and some

1973
01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:18,479
Speaker 2: people told him to go at himself and things like

1974
01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:21,080
Speaker 2: that and it was disgusting. But everybody saw that, So

1975
01:36:21,160 --> 01:36:24,840
Speaker 2: I had an opinion, you know, on this situation. Yeah,

1976
01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:28,160
Speaker 2: teammates may have seen him, you're on a close quarters

1977
01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:30,599
Speaker 2: you're on a plane, but the nation didn't see him.

1978
01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:33,840
Speaker 2: So this is a team situation with coaches, and maybe

1979
01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:36,559
Speaker 2: there were some teammates that saw him, but they'd sooner

1980
01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:40,639
Speaker 2: not say anything than get involved. Now, if if there's

1981
01:36:40,680 --> 01:36:43,160
Speaker 2: a tape on that plane and I went viral and

1982
01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:45,840
Speaker 2: people saw it, then then there may have been some

1983
01:36:46,000 --> 01:36:48,280
Speaker 2: hollow baloo on this stuff. Maybe then.

1984
01:36:50,280 --> 01:36:53,840
Speaker 3: Maybe, I mean, like right now is so fresh that

1985
01:36:53,960 --> 01:36:56,519
Speaker 3: no one knows because it didn't come to light until

1986
01:36:56,600 --> 01:36:59,400
Speaker 3: last week and so people are just now being made

1987
01:36:59,439 --> 01:37:03,360
Speaker 3: aware of it. It is the same attorney that represented

1988
01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:09,360
Speaker 3: the victims and the Deshaun Watson, Tony Buzby. Yeah, and

1989
01:37:09,479 --> 01:37:14,200
Speaker 3: so he is created sometion of dust up. He brought

1990
01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:17,599
Speaker 3: that up and you know, like in anything, particularly when

1991
01:37:17,600 --> 01:37:22,040
Speaker 3: it comes to the judicial system, whether it's criminal or civil,

1992
01:37:22,400 --> 01:37:24,360
Speaker 3: you kind of have to wait until all the information

1993
01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:28,360
Speaker 3: is presented before we can make a judgment. That's how

1994
01:37:28,680 --> 01:37:36,519
Speaker 3: that operates. Whereas with Harrison Buckner's situation, you're just trying

1995
01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:40,920
Speaker 3: to you can make an opinion immediately just because it's

1996
01:37:40,920 --> 01:37:44,559
Speaker 3: an opinion. He said what he says, you didn't either

1997
01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:46,360
Speaker 3: like what he says or you don't like it, and

1998
01:37:46,439 --> 01:37:49,920
Speaker 3: then people inject themselves into the conversation. I mean, that's

1999
01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:51,519
Speaker 3: just kind of the way it goes. That's that's where

2000
01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:54,479
Speaker 3: we are right now when it comes to social media

2001
01:37:54,560 --> 01:37:55,160
Speaker 3: and those things.

2002
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:57,080
Speaker 2: I hate to put you on the spot, but I

2003
01:37:57,160 --> 01:37:59,400
Speaker 2: know that you were involved with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Have

2004
01:37:59,560 --> 01:38:01,880
Speaker 2: you heard any of this stuff prior that is coming out?

2005
01:38:02,080 --> 01:38:03,320
Speaker 2: You know anything about this?

2006
01:38:04,960 --> 01:38:07,719
Speaker 3: No, I mean no one knows, Like just like Doug Peterson,

2007
01:38:07,800 --> 01:38:10,280
Speaker 3: I don't fly on the charter with the team. And then,

2008
01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:14,799
Speaker 3: just like Doug Peterson said, because this lawsuit was just filed,

2009
01:38:15,320 --> 01:38:19,800
Speaker 3: no one knew, like unless complaints with levied, it goes

2010
01:38:19,880 --> 01:38:21,840
Speaker 3: up to HR and those things like it would still

2011
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:25,640
Speaker 3: even be protected and confidential, Like no one would know

2012
01:38:26,160 --> 01:38:30,000
Speaker 3: right away. And so unless the behavior was egregious where

2013
01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:34,840
Speaker 3: everyone saw it, and everyone saw the incidents that were alleged,

2014
01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:37,720
Speaker 3: I think it's hard for anyone to say that they

2015
01:38:37,880 --> 01:38:39,519
Speaker 3: know about the Brandon McMahon situation.

2016
01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:41,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the women say they have and they will

2017
01:38:41,400 --> 01:38:44,639
Speaker 2: continue to have psychological and emotional distress as a result

2018
01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:47,320
Speaker 2: of the bus alleged actions. They are seeking more than

2019
01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:52,120
Speaker 2: a million dollars in damages against McManus and the Jaguars,

2020
01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:56,760
Speaker 2: and they have demanded a jury trial. Interesting to be continued,

2021
01:38:56,840 --> 01:38:58,960
Speaker 2: all right, he's Bucky Brooks, I mean de Firman. Get

2022
01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:01,920
Speaker 2: him at Bucket Brooks or at Andy Furman. Eversaw love

2023
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:04,040
Speaker 2: to hear from you at eight seven seven ninety nine

2024
01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:07,080

2025
01:39:07,160 --> 01:39:09,800
Speaker 2: six sixty three sixty nine the blame game at the

2026
01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:13,519
Speaker 2: end of this hour, and he was a lightning rod.

2027
01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:19,080
Speaker 2: Now he's gone, that's next. What took so long? Well,

2028
01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:21,320
Speaker 2: that's right around the corner. He is Bucky Brooks up,

Speaker 2: Andy Furman, and we are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox

2038
01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:48,519
Speaker 2: after we get up the air and his good news,

2039
01:39:48,960 --> 01:39:51,799
Speaker 2: his good news on a kicker. We had two Kicker stories,

2040
01:39:52,080 --> 01:39:56,320
Speaker 2: the Harrison Bucker one controversy. We had the one McManus

2041
01:39:56,400 --> 01:39:59,840
Speaker 2: and Jacksonville now Washington kind of a lawsuit coming up

2042
01:40:00,280 --> 01:40:02,920
Speaker 2: on that flight to London last year, but listen to

2043
01:40:03,000 --> 01:40:05,320
Speaker 2: this one is a pretty neat one. After missing a

2044
01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:08,360
Speaker 2: less second kit against the Chiefs last year, Buffalo Bill

2045
01:40:08,479 --> 01:40:13,040
Speaker 2: kicker Tyler Bass, he deleted his social media account. I

2046
01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:15,880
Speaker 2: guess he was getting killed on that now. Since then,

2047
01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:18,640
Speaker 2: get this. Fans from the two teams as well as

2048
01:40:18,680 --> 01:40:22,360
Speaker 2: other NFL teams, they donated more than four hundred thousand

2049
01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:25,759
Speaker 2: dollars to his charity, Ten Lives Club. As a result,

2050
01:40:26,200 --> 01:40:29,280
Speaker 2: the nonprofit will now build the Tyler Bass Adoption Center

2051
01:40:29,680 --> 01:40:31,519
Speaker 2: in his honor. And I think that's beautiful. It really

2052
01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:34,080
Speaker 2: is so a bad thing turned out to a good thing.

2053
01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:36,040
Speaker 2: He missed a kid, but now he's got a new

2054
01:40:36,080 --> 01:40:38,960
Speaker 2: adoption center in his honor, and the kick goes away

2055
01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:41,080
Speaker 2: and they'll have a chance, hopefully in the future to

2056
01:40:41,160 --> 01:40:42,599
Speaker 2: make up for that. Good news.

2057
01:40:43,400 --> 01:40:45,400
Speaker 3: Good guy, that is good news. That's great news. And

2058
01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:48,760
Speaker 3: that's the thing that's wonderful about the football community, like

2059
01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:51,960
Speaker 3: how they support one another and those things. And so yeah,

2060
01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:54,920
Speaker 3: something that was good ultimately becomes something that something that

2061
01:40:55,040 --> 01:40:58,160
Speaker 3: was bad ultimately becomes good for Tyler Bass and his family, you.

2062
01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:01,160
Speaker 2: Know what, his something that was bad that became good again,

2063
01:41:01,600 --> 01:41:04,000
Speaker 2: because I say, what took so long? On the night

2064
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:07,840
Speaker 2: that Angel Hernandez announced his retirement for baseball, a former

2065
01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:10,920
Speaker 2: Big league pitcher, Cci Sabathia went on an X and

2066
01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:13,000
Speaker 2: he gave him a farewell. He says, that's all folks.

2067
01:41:13,439 --> 01:41:15,400
Speaker 2: And Hernandez, as you know, he's been in the league

2068
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:19,280
Speaker 2: for thirty three years, was Major League Baseball's most notorious umpire,

2069
01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:23,160
Speaker 2: really a big time topic. His comments were always out there,

2070
01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:26,479
Speaker 2: a real big time topic and really, by no means

2071
01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:29,320
Speaker 2: one of the Major league's best umpires. As a matter

2072
01:41:29,360 --> 01:41:32,800
Speaker 2: of fact. Data from public umpire score cards also indicated

2073
01:41:33,320 --> 01:41:38,280
Speaker 2: Hernandez's reputation became outsize. He generally ranked get this Buck

2074
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:41,559
Speaker 2: in the sixties or the seventies out of eighty five

2075
01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:45,280
Speaker 2: to ninety umpires, according to Dylan Yepp, the founder of

2076
01:41:45,439 --> 01:41:48,760
Speaker 2: Umpire Auditor, How in the heck has he lasted thirty

2077
01:41:48,800 --> 01:41:51,479
Speaker 2: three years? I guess the only reason I could think

2078
01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:55,680
Speaker 2: of is the fact that he came pretty complicated back

2079
01:41:55,720 --> 01:41:58,840
Speaker 2: in twenty seventeen when he filed that laws to against

2080
01:41:58,840 --> 01:42:02,200
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball. He claim in racial discrimination, preventing it

2081
01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:05,080
Speaker 2: from becoming a full time crew chief and getting coveted

2082
01:42:05,160 --> 01:42:07,920
Speaker 2: postseason assignments. That did it for him. I guess the

2083
01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:11,720
Speaker 2: lawsuit was twice dismissed in federal court, even as the

2084
01:42:11,760 --> 01:42:14,920
Speaker 2: subject became a rare window into relations between Major League

2085
01:42:14,920 --> 01:42:17,240
Speaker 2: Baseball and its umpires. I guess that did it, and

2086
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,760
Speaker 2: then he became a full time guy. He lasted thirty

2087
01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,360
Speaker 2: three years. Now he's gone. Boy, he was pretty bad.

2088
01:42:23,720 --> 01:42:25,439
Speaker 2: He was pretty bad. I don't know how he lasted

2089
01:42:25,479 --> 01:42:27,920
Speaker 2: that long. And you know, down the road, I guess

2090
01:42:28,000 --> 01:42:30,519
Speaker 2: in a year or two from now, they'll be replacing

2091
01:42:30,600 --> 01:42:33,799
Speaker 2: all the umpires with automated umpires. Amazing.

2092
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:40,000
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I'm not a fan of the automated

2093
01:42:40,240 --> 01:42:43,120
Speaker 3: umpire thing, understand and I understand we as a public

2094
01:42:43,200 --> 01:42:46,960
Speaker 3: demand that we want perfection from the people that are

2095
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:50,519
Speaker 3: deciding and ultimately officiating the games. But some of those things,

2096
01:42:50,600 --> 01:42:52,400
Speaker 3: human error is a part of it, and you're not

2097
01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:55,120
Speaker 3: going to have perfect people. I think the most important

2098
01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:57,960
Speaker 3: thing you want full time umps and referees, guys that

2099
01:42:58,000 --> 01:42:59,920
Speaker 3: can devote their time and attention to the crew.

2100
01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:03,439
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up, because yes, human eraror

2101
01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:05,640
Speaker 2: is part of the deal. And when I watch an

2102
01:43:05,760 --> 01:43:08,000
Speaker 2: NBA game and there's two and a half minutes left

2103
01:43:08,040 --> 01:43:10,080
Speaker 2: on the clock, I know for a fact it's going

2104
01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:12,439
Speaker 2: to last fifteen minutes. And when they go to the

2105
01:43:12,560 --> 01:43:15,200
Speaker 2: video and they review it, you want to get it right.

2106
01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:17,320
Speaker 2: I get it, but you know what, I think that

2107
01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:19,639
Speaker 2: stops the momentum. It stops the flow of the game,

2108
01:43:19,920 --> 01:43:22,000
Speaker 2: and I just assume they get it wrong. And they

2109
01:43:22,040 --> 01:43:24,320
Speaker 2: still sometimes get it wrong, you know they really do.

2110
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:27,080
Speaker 2: But I'd rather than just play the game, forget about

2111
01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:29,160
Speaker 2: the video. Just play the game, make the call, let

2112
01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:31,400
Speaker 2: the officials make the call. And that's basically the way

2113
01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:32,920
Speaker 2: it's got to be agreed.

2114
01:43:34,960 --> 01:43:36,640
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I mean that that's the way that I

2115
01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:39,400
Speaker 3: would I would say, like, just just play through good, bad,

2116
01:43:39,479 --> 01:43:40,880
Speaker 3: and indifferent. Just play through the calls.

2117
01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:44,880
Speaker 2: I mean they've had some notorious calls that were bad.

2118
01:43:44,920 --> 01:43:48,000
Speaker 2: Remember with the Saints several years ago in that playoff game.

2119
01:43:48,200 --> 01:43:50,240
Speaker 2: I mean it was a bad call and that time out.

2120
01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:53,200
Speaker 2: Just play the game. Human error is part of the deal,

2121
01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:56,000
Speaker 2: and it happens. I mean, no one doesn't intentionally, but

2122
01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:58,120
Speaker 2: that's the way it is. And when they have these

2123
01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:01,000
Speaker 2: college basketball games or NBA game, I'm telling you, the

2124
01:44:01,200 --> 01:44:03,040
Speaker 2: last two and a half three minutes on the clock

2125
01:44:03,080 --> 01:44:05,439
Speaker 2: could go for fifteen to twenty minutes. And I don't

2126
01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:07,320
Speaker 2: think fans want to handle it. I don't think coaches

2127
01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:09,840
Speaker 2: want it. And again, if a team is on a roll,

2128
01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:12,320
Speaker 2: I think it takes away from the momentum. I think

2129
01:44:12,400 --> 01:44:14,920
Speaker 2: that's part of the game. Momentum is a big factor,

2130
01:44:15,240 --> 01:44:16,720
Speaker 2: especially in the game of basketball.

2131
01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:20,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a big factor, and you don't want to

2132
01:44:20,600 --> 01:44:26,080
Speaker 3: crush momentum when you have things going. Look, it's that

2133
01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:27,920
Speaker 3: fine line. You want to get it right, but you

2134
01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:30,080
Speaker 3: want there to be a flow to the game. You

2135
01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:33,040
Speaker 3: don't want the constant stops and starts where the officiate

2136
01:44:33,439 --> 01:44:36,439
Speaker 3: officials are more the star than the players. I want

2137
01:44:36,439 --> 01:44:38,439
Speaker 3: the players to decide the game, and so I don't

2138
01:44:38,479 --> 01:44:41,599
Speaker 3: want guys to swallow their whistle, but let the players

2139
01:44:41,760 --> 01:44:43,920
Speaker 3: ultimately be in charge and who wins and who loses.

2140
01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:46,439
Speaker 2: And you talk about swallowing in the whistle, they certainly

2141
01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:48,320
Speaker 2: have not swallowed the whistle in the NBA and the

2142
01:44:48,360 --> 01:44:51,080
Speaker 2: playoffs because they're letting them play and the players getting

2143
01:44:51,160 --> 01:44:54,000
Speaker 2: real physical, real physical. I don't know if that's good

2144
01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:57,040
Speaker 2: or bad. It could could relate to injuries. But again,

2145
01:44:57,120 --> 01:44:59,719
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm watching the playoffs. It's like a different ballgame.

2146
01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:02,200
Speaker 2: These guys are playing at a different level. In the

2147
01:45:02,240 --> 01:45:04,680
Speaker 2: playoffs is you know, win or go home. But the

2148
01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:08,240
Speaker 2: officials of maybe they've been told that they've been dictated

2149
01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:10,720
Speaker 2: by the league office, you know, let him play, and

2150
01:45:10,840 --> 01:45:12,960
Speaker 2: they certainly are letting them play. But they're getting banged

2151
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:13,599
Speaker 2: up pretty good.

2152
01:45:16,120 --> 01:45:19,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. But for me, I think the playoffs should be

2153
01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:22,120
Speaker 3: about that. The playoffs should be about Hey, let's limit

2154
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:24,840
Speaker 3: the calls, let's play, Let's let them play. You have

2155
01:45:24,920 --> 01:45:27,160
Speaker 3: to earn your buckets, don't bail people out, don't put

2156
01:45:27,200 --> 01:45:29,639
Speaker 3: teams at the line, and allow them have a parade

2157
01:45:30,720 --> 01:45:33,200
Speaker 3: to free throws. Let's make people earn what they're getting.

2158
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:33,400
Speaker 2: Now.

2159
01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:38,040
Speaker 3: It can't be excessive, it can't be egregious. But I

2160
01:45:38,080 --> 01:45:41,400
Speaker 3: would rather settled between the players as opposed to the

2161
01:45:41,439 --> 01:45:43,639
Speaker 3: officials stepping in and kind of maybe doing too much.

2162
01:45:44,280 --> 01:45:47,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, the officials should be seen and not heard.

2163
01:45:47,560 --> 01:45:50,360
Speaker 2: And now the officials have taken the line like guys

2164
01:45:50,439 --> 01:45:53,519
Speaker 2: like Angel Hernandez. I mean, he's like a personality. He

2165
01:45:53,680 --> 01:45:55,880
Speaker 2: was a bad official. I think. Well ruin his career

2166
01:45:55,960 --> 01:45:58,240
Speaker 2: more than anything else is when they started putting that

2167
01:45:58,360 --> 01:46:00,960
Speaker 2: strike box on TV, and you could see when he

2168
01:46:01,040 --> 01:46:02,960
Speaker 2: was calling balls and strikes at the ball game. You

2169
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:04,600
Speaker 2: could see how big he was. I remember there was

2170
01:46:04,640 --> 01:46:07,160
Speaker 2: one game and they wrote about this. He called a

2171
01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:10,040
Speaker 2: pitcher strike and it bounced to the plate and he

2172
01:46:10,160 --> 01:46:12,559
Speaker 2: called it a strike. I mean, this guy was terrible.

2173
01:46:13,720 --> 01:46:15,880
Speaker 2: It's amazing how he lasted thirty three is amazing. How

2174
01:46:15,920 --> 01:46:18,400
Speaker 2: he even got to the major leagues. But he's gone

2175
01:46:18,479 --> 01:46:20,800
Speaker 2: now and gone and forgotten and let him go. But

2176
01:46:21,320 --> 01:46:23,120
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not so certain it's better to have

2177
01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:27,600
Speaker 2: the AI umpires down the road. I think there was

2178
01:46:27,640 --> 01:46:30,400
Speaker 2: something to be said about the fans really enjoying managers

2179
01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:32,360
Speaker 2: coming out of the dugout and kicking dirt on home

2180
01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:35,120
Speaker 2: plate and arguing with the calls. I think that was

2181
01:46:35,200 --> 01:46:37,320
Speaker 2: part of the game. Maybe it's gone, that's a long

2182
01:46:37,479 --> 01:46:39,920
Speaker 2: lost art, but I think fans like that. You know,

2183
01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:42,960
Speaker 2: guys coming out there and just jowing it out with

2184
01:46:43,360 --> 01:46:45,760
Speaker 2: the umpire. You don't see that anymore. David Bell does

2185
01:46:45,800 --> 01:46:47,840
Speaker 2: that a little bit with the Cincinnati Reds. He's got

2186
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:49,720
Speaker 2: a short fuse, but other than that, you don't see

2187
01:46:49,760 --> 01:46:51,960
Speaker 2: many managers doing that in baseball.

2188
01:46:54,080 --> 01:46:55,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, not as much as we used to. Like we

2189
01:46:56,000 --> 01:46:58,439
Speaker 3: see Earl Weaver and it was crazy. Guys come out

2190
01:46:58,439 --> 01:47:02,720
Speaker 3: there and do it time. Obviously, Yeah, they would do it,

2191
01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:06,439
Speaker 3: kick dust up on the umpire shoes see that as much.

2192
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:12,439
Speaker 3: We recently saw Aaron Boone go bananas because of it

2193
01:47:12,640 --> 01:47:15,200
Speaker 3: was an interference call or something that happened at at

2194
01:47:15,240 --> 01:47:18,400
Speaker 3: second base and he just blew a gasket. But yeah,

2195
01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:21,080
Speaker 3: it's rare that you see those guys do it. It

2196
01:47:21,320 --> 01:47:23,639
Speaker 3: was a big part of the game, though. You would

2197
01:47:23,720 --> 01:47:27,800
Speaker 3: see those moments and and and that's kind of the kid.

2198
01:47:27,880 --> 01:47:32,559
Speaker 3: You remember those things, and it did appear that baseball

2199
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:34,920
Speaker 3: was front and center. Baseball was everything, so we saw

2200
01:47:34,960 --> 01:47:36,760
Speaker 3: a chance. We had a chance to see that stuff more.

2201
01:47:37,120 --> 01:47:40,880
Speaker 3: Now baseball has faded. It's no longer the number one sport,

2202
01:47:41,280 --> 01:47:43,080
Speaker 3: and we don't see it as much as we used to.

2203
01:47:43,600 --> 01:47:46,880
Speaker 2: Gotta be entertaining, you know, baseball is so involved with statistics,

2204
01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:49,840
Speaker 2: with you know this that, and people don't care. People

2205
01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:52,160
Speaker 2: don't even know what they are Forget about the statistics.

2206
01:47:52,360 --> 01:47:54,120
Speaker 2: Entertain us. That's what we need to do. I remember

2207
01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:57,160
Speaker 2: when Loup Panelo was managing the Cincinnati Reds. He was arguing,

2208
01:47:57,200 --> 01:47:58,760
Speaker 2: we call one time he picked up a base and

2209
01:47:58,840 --> 01:48:01,040
Speaker 2: pitched it up into right field. He just picked the

2210
01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:03,799
Speaker 2: base up and threw it away. People love that. It's entertainment.

2211
01:48:03,880 --> 01:48:06,720
Speaker 2: That's what sports is. It's entertainment. It's not numbers. You

2212
01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:08,680
Speaker 2: want to be a number guy, you know, get it

2213
01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:11,639
Speaker 2: to finance. You know, baseball should not be all numbers.

2214
01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:15,280
Speaker 2: You know, launch distance in this and that and who

2215
01:48:15,560 --> 01:48:17,559
Speaker 2: the home runs? A home run if it gets over

2216
01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:19,400
Speaker 2: the fence, it's a home run. I don't care how

2217
01:48:19,479 --> 01:48:21,439
Speaker 2: far it is. I don't care to launch angle. I

2218
01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:24,240
Speaker 2: don't care about that stuff. But baseball wants to do it.

2219
01:48:24,360 --> 01:48:26,240
Speaker 2: Let him do it all right. He's Bucket Brooks on

2220
01:48:26,320 --> 01:48:29,120
Speaker 2: Iny Firm and we are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox

2221
01:48:29,200 --> 01:48:32,160
Speaker 2: Sports Radio, and it's a tough way to make one

2222
01:48:32,240 --> 01:48:35,240
Speaker 2: hundred g's. That's coming up next live from the tiraq

2223
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:38,160
Speaker 2: dot com studios. But first, here's our guy, Kevin Why

2224
01:48:38,280 --> 01:48:41,639
Speaker 2: with all your sports. Yeah, French Open tennis action going

2225
01:48:41,720 --> 01:48:44,400
Speaker 2: on right now. Carlos Alcarez is in the middle of

2226
01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:47,320
Speaker 2: his match. He got going about thirty or so minutes

2227
01:48:47,360 --> 01:48:50,720
Speaker 2: ago as when he started, So they're now I think

2228
01:48:50,800 --> 01:48:52,920
Speaker 2: in the actually they're still in the first set. It's

2229
01:48:53,000 --> 01:48:56,360
Speaker 2: tied at two games apiece. Carlos Alcarez, he's up playing

2230
01:48:56,400 --> 01:49:00,920
Speaker 2: Canadian and bear with me here, Felix augaire Alias. I'm

2231
01:49:00,960 --> 01:49:02,479
Speaker 2: trying to say his name as great as I can,

2232

2255
01:50:23,240 --> 01:50:27,560
Speaker 8: McDavid potentially one game away from his first appearance in

2256
01:50:27,840 --> 01:50:32,120

2262
01:50:49,400 --> 01:50:52,720
Speaker 8: three hours because of rain before the Cubs eventually do

2263
01:50:52,840 --> 01:50:55,439
Speaker 8: win it. The Phillies beat the Cardinals six to one,

2264
01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:57,840
Speaker 8: but Rangers Suarez had to leave the game after he

Speaker 8: was hit by a line drive, had a bruised hand

2266
01:50:59,800 --> 01:51:02,439
Speaker 8: because of it, and the Phillies hoping that he's not

2267
01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:05,519
Speaker 8: out too long because he's having an outstanding season nine

2268
01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:08,479
Speaker 8: to one so far. In the WNBA. There's only one

2276
01:51:33,160 --> 01:51:36,600
Speaker 8: they did. Texas beats Florida ten nothing, Oklahoma over UCLA

2277
01:51:36,760 --> 01:51:40,880
Speaker 8: won nothing. And in the NCAA Baseball Tournament the regional round,

2278
01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:44,240
Speaker 8: the huge upsot of the day Dallas Baptist not only

2279
01:51:44,280 --> 01:51:47,080
Speaker 8: beating Arizona seven nothing, but they knocked the Wildcats out

2280
01:51:47,120 --> 01:51:50,080
Speaker 8: of the tournament all together. Third seed at Texas, A

2281
01:51:50,200 --> 01:51:53,240
Speaker 8: and M beats their heated rival Texas and extra innings

2284
01:51:57,120 --> 01:51:59,760
Speaker 2: We'll see you next week. Okay, now here's a deal.

2285
01:52:00,600 --> 01:52:02,720
Speaker 2: The question of the day is would you And I'm

2286
01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:05,439
Speaker 2: gonna ask Bucky Brooks would he or anybody else for

2287
01:52:05,520 --> 01:52:08,160
Speaker 2: that matter. After I do this for you, we're gonna

2288
01:52:08,160 --> 01:52:10,920
Speaker 2: have the blame game in about ten minutes. But last week,

2289
01:52:11,479 --> 01:52:14,519
Speaker 2: Liz McGuire was sitting on the third baseline of a

2290
01:52:14,560 --> 01:52:17,400
Speaker 2: Blue Jays game talking with a friend when she was

2291
01:52:17,479 --> 01:52:19,040
Speaker 2: hitting the head with a one hundred and ten mile

2292
01:52:19,080 --> 01:52:22,160
Speaker 2: per hourifoul ball off the bat of Bobashett all Right,

2293
01:52:22,640 --> 01:52:25,760
Speaker 2: the ball traveled over the protective netting installed and this

2294
01:52:25,880 --> 01:52:28,280
Speaker 2: is installed at every Major League baseball park, and the

2295
01:52:28,400 --> 01:52:32,040
Speaker 2: medics quickly rushed to McGuire's attention all right, of course, Now,

2296
01:52:32,160 --> 01:52:35,000
Speaker 2: most people would have been worried about the large bump

2297
01:52:35,080 --> 01:52:37,799
Speaker 2: forming on her head, and they rushed straight to the hospital,

2298
01:52:37,840 --> 01:52:40,120
Speaker 2: but she didn't. She said that she'd liked to go

2299
01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:43,080
Speaker 2: back to her seat watch the final linings of the game,

2300
01:52:43,560 --> 01:52:46,800
Speaker 2: which resulted in a four to three Blue Jays lost. Now,

2301
01:52:47,720 --> 01:52:50,680
Speaker 2: to make matters even worse, she didn't even get the

2302
01:52:50,840 --> 01:52:53,840
Speaker 2: ball that hit her, and some other fans scooped it

2303
01:52:53,920 --> 01:52:57,479
Speaker 2: up instead. Now, after the game, McGuire decided to go

2304
01:52:57,600 --> 01:52:59,519
Speaker 2: to the emergency room. It was determined that she had

2305
01:52:59,560 --> 01:53:02,760
Speaker 2: avoided serious damage. She just had a mild concussion and

2306
01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:05,320
Speaker 2: normally the story would probably end here, but it didn't.

2307
01:53:05,720 --> 01:53:09,160
Speaker 2: It didn't. As soon as she got home, she posted

2308
01:53:09,520 --> 01:53:12,720
Speaker 2: two pictures to a few hundred followers, asking the Blue

2309
01:53:12,800 --> 01:53:14,960
Speaker 2: Jays if they could hook her up with the ball

2310
01:53:15,360 --> 01:53:18,080
Speaker 2: since she never got a ball. It was at Blue

2311
01:53:18,120 --> 01:53:21,120
Speaker 2: Jays she goes, hey, I got my face mashed. I

2312
01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:22,760
Speaker 2: got it mashed in by one hundred and ten mile

2313
01:53:22,800 --> 01:53:26,599
Speaker 2: an hour foul ball of Bobachet's bat. I didn't even

2314
01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:28,960
Speaker 2: get the ball, she writes, I even stayed till the

2315
01:53:29,040 --> 01:53:31,320
Speaker 2: end of the game. Anyway you could hook a girl up.

2316
01:53:31,560 --> 01:53:34,519
Speaker 2: This is what she puts on her zeke exicount all right.

2317
01:53:35,040 --> 01:53:38,360
Speaker 2: Her surprise, the tweet went viral. It went to over

2318
01:53:38,520 --> 01:53:42,280
Speaker 2: fifteen million people, including the Blue Jays. The blue Jays

2319
01:53:42,360 --> 01:53:44,320
Speaker 2: got back to her. They offered her tickets to an

2320
01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:50,240
Speaker 2: upcoming game and assigned bobashet Baseball. Then get this tops

2321
01:53:50,600 --> 01:53:54,120
Speaker 2: the card maker. They joined in the and they asked

2322
01:53:54,120 --> 01:53:55,920
Speaker 2: if they could make one hundred and ten trading cards

2323
01:53:55,960 --> 01:53:58,280
Speaker 2: with her picture and send them all to her, And

2324
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:00,760
Speaker 2: Maguire said yeah, no, no, no big deal. She said

2325
01:54:00,800 --> 01:54:03,080
Speaker 2: she'd auction you off a limited number of the cards

2326
01:54:03,120 --> 01:54:05,840
Speaker 2: on eBay and donate the partial proceeds to a local

2327
01:54:06,040 --> 01:54:09,600
Speaker 2: children's hospital. However, she was generally shocked. She saw how

2328
01:54:09,720 --> 01:54:12,360
Speaker 2: much things they were going for. As of this week.

2329
01:54:12,479 --> 01:54:15,760
Speaker 2: Get this, As of this week, only four cards were

2330
01:54:15,800 --> 01:54:19,880
Speaker 2: for sale, the cheapest selling for almost one thousand dollars.

2331
01:54:20,280 --> 01:54:23,599
Speaker 2: So this means if Maguire were to sell all one

2332
01:54:23,720 --> 01:54:25,960
Speaker 2: hundred and ten cards at that price, she can make

2333
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:28,360
Speaker 2: over one hundred grand. Not bad for getting hit in

2334
01:54:28,439 --> 01:54:32,040
Speaker 2: the face. So the question I asked, would you, I'll

2335
01:54:32,080 --> 01:54:34,520
Speaker 2: answer that for me. I would I'd get hit in

2336
01:54:34,600 --> 01:54:36,640
Speaker 2: the face for one hundred grand like this, hitting the

2337
01:54:36,680 --> 01:54:38,560
Speaker 2: face with a ball, I would do it, would you,

2338
01:54:38,680 --> 01:54:39,440
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks?

2339
01:54:40,840 --> 01:54:42,160
Speaker 3: How much damage to my face?

2340
01:54:43,080 --> 01:54:46,680
Speaker 2: Well, she got a big bomb, she gotta knock. She

2341
01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:48,240
Speaker 2: got a knot over on forehead.

2342
01:54:48,920 --> 01:54:51,840
Speaker 3: Ooh yeah, I don't. I don't know. Man, A hundred thousand,

2343
01:54:51,840 --> 01:54:54,800
Speaker 3: I don't know I any more for the stress that

2344
01:54:54,880 --> 01:54:58,840
Speaker 3: comes along with that. Yeah, I'm going to need more

2345
01:54:58,880 --> 01:54:59,800
Speaker 3: than just one hundred grand.

2346
01:55:00,600 --> 01:55:02,560
Speaker 2: It's amazed. Well, look you you probably got hurt more

2347
01:55:02,640 --> 01:55:05,320
Speaker 2: when playing football. I would think, right, she got a

2348
01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:07,920
Speaker 2: mod concussion. People got worse concussions playing football.

2349
01:55:08,640 --> 01:55:11,840
Speaker 3: I would think, yeah, yeah, yeah, I would anticipate that

2350
01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:15,200
Speaker 3: there are the injuries are more severe football than uh

2351
01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:18,320
Speaker 3: the foul ball. But you gotta be aware. Like that's

2352
01:55:18,360 --> 01:55:20,520
Speaker 3: the thing about like going again. You gotta be aware.

2353
01:55:20,520 --> 01:55:22,520
Speaker 3: You gotta have your eyes up. You can't be chatting

2354
01:55:22,600 --> 01:55:24,720
Speaker 3: and so focused on your hot dog and beard that

2355
01:55:24,760 --> 01:55:25,760
Speaker 3: you don't see the ball coming here.

2356
01:55:25,840 --> 01:55:28,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're exactly. I got a baseball games. I see

2357

2361
01:55:37,760 --> 01:55:39,320

2362
01:55:39,360 --> 01:55:40,960
Speaker 2: could hit me in the face for one hundred grand

Speaker 2: of course it's about eleven minutes before the top of

2371
01:56:03,840 --> 01:56:05,560
Speaker 2: the hour. And at the top of the hour, which

2372
01:56:05,560 --> 01:56:08,080
Speaker 2: will be nine am on the East Coast, the Swallow

2373
01:56:08,120 --> 01:56:11,120
Speaker 2: Domb himself, Mike Harmon will join Ryan Hollins. So stay

2374
01:56:11,200 --> 01:56:13,120
Speaker 2: with us right here on Fox Sports Radio. And we

2375
01:56:13,200 --> 01:56:15,720
Speaker 2: want to thank our tremendous staff. Kevin Wirrett, you are

2376
01:56:15,720 --> 01:56:18,240
Speaker 2: a tremendous athlete that was only kidding. Mark Ramsey with

2377
01:56:18,280 --> 01:56:20,720
Speaker 2: all the controls and the Eye Man himself, the Eye

2378
01:56:20,800 --> 01:56:24,240
Speaker 2: Man always available to help us what we need here

2379
01:56:24,600 --> 01:56:27,400
Speaker 2: on our show. Now the blame Game, let's do it.

2380
01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:28,720
Speaker 5: You ruin me.

2381
01:56:28,960 --> 01:56:31,800
Speaker 1: It's all your fault. No, it's your fault.

2382
01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:33,320
Speaker 7: It is all your fault.

2383
01:56:36,840 --> 01:56:38,240
Speaker 1: Maybe it's everyone's fault.

2384
01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:40,120
Speaker 2: Who the liar?

2385
01:56:40,320 --> 01:56:42,320
Speaker 1: That's why there's the blame game theme.

2386
01:56:42,720 --> 01:56:45,840
Speaker 2: Let's stray around who to blame the liar?

2387
01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:47,800
Speaker 7: You're the eye, man, I'm the liar?

2388
01:56:48,200 --> 01:56:48,840
Speaker 2: No, no, you no?

2389
01:56:48,920 --> 01:56:48,960
Speaker 4: No?

2390
01:56:49,200 --> 01:56:52,160
Speaker 7: Okay. Also, I think it's worth mentioning before we jump

2391
01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:54,600
Speaker 7: into this that Kevin Wired actually just left, so he

2392
01:56:54,720 --> 01:56:55,640
Speaker 7: missed your apology.

2393
01:56:57,480 --> 01:56:58,880
Speaker 2: I take it back, I take it back.

2394
01:56:58,880 --> 01:57:00,800
Speaker 7: I was gonna say, just remember to apologize next week,

2395
01:57:00,840 --> 01:57:01,640
Speaker 7: but it's already taking.

2396
01:57:01,480 --> 01:57:02,360
Speaker 2: Ain't and a half.

2397
01:57:02,440 --> 01:57:03,800
Speaker 7: Got it, got it all right?

2398
01:57:03,880 --> 01:57:05,680
Speaker 2: So the one shot that's he gets.

2399
01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:10,320
Speaker 7: Here we go. Shiloh Sanders College, son of head coach

2400
01:57:10,480 --> 01:57:14,000
Speaker 7: Dion Sanders, filed for bankruptcy earlier this week. Who do

2401
01:57:14,120 --> 01:57:14,600
Speaker 7: you blame?

2402
01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:15,080
Speaker 1: Andy?

2403
01:57:15,920 --> 01:57:18,880
Speaker 2: How that hell could you file for bank First of all,

2404
01:57:19,000 --> 01:57:21,400
Speaker 2: wish he getting the money to file for bankruptcy. And

2405
01:57:21,440 --> 01:57:23,680
Speaker 2: when I was in college I couldn't file for bankuercy.

2406
01:57:23,720 --> 01:57:25,040
Speaker 2: You know why I had no money?

2407
01:57:25,240 --> 01:57:25,480
Speaker 1: Really?

2408
01:57:25,760 --> 01:57:28,680
Speaker 2: Well, obviously he's got a ban accountant, someone stealing money

2409
01:57:28,720 --> 01:57:31,160
Speaker 2: from him, or he's spending like a pig. So this

2410
01:57:31,360 --> 01:57:34,120
Speaker 2: problem is his it's all on him. Sean, how do

2411
01:57:34,200 --> 01:57:36,840
Speaker 2: you do that? Ask you that I don't get how

2412
01:57:36,920 --> 01:57:39,960
Speaker 2: you could file for bankruptcy. It's unbelievable, Fucky.

2413
01:57:41,720 --> 01:57:44,640
Speaker 3: You filed for bankruptcy to protect yourself against a lawsuit

2414
01:57:45,080 --> 01:57:48,920
Speaker 3: from a security guard that issuing you in one eleven

2415
01:57:49,000 --> 01:57:52,320
Speaker 3: point nine million dollar judgment. You filed bankruptcy to make

2416
01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:54,440
Speaker 3: sure that you don't have to pay him, even though

2417
01:57:54,480 --> 01:57:56,880
Speaker 3: you were fifteen years old when the allegations in the

2418
01:57:56,920 --> 01:57:59,960
Speaker 3: conviction took place. That's why you file a bank rept

2419
01:58:00,400 --> 01:58:02,760
Speaker 3: so you don't pay someone who waited ten years to

2420
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:05,560
Speaker 3: try and collect money on an incident that happen at school.

2421
01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:06,360
Speaker 7: Makes sense to me.

2422
01:58:06,880 --> 01:58:09,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that guy probably knows that he's got some

2423
01:58:09,240 --> 01:58:11,080
Speaker 2: money and that's why he's suing him now.

2424
01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:14,600
Speaker 7: A video went viral after the Mavericks won the Western

2425
01:58:14,640 --> 01:58:18,360
Speaker 7: Conference Finals a few days ago of Luka Doncic enjoying

2426
01:58:18,440 --> 01:58:21,920
Speaker 7: a postgame recovery beer, only to have it confiscated by

2427
01:58:22,040 --> 01:58:24,200
Speaker 7: a Mavericks executive. Who do you blame, Bucky?

2428
01:58:26,840 --> 01:58:30,360
Speaker 3: Look? Look, I don't blame Michael Finley for taking the

2429
01:58:30,440 --> 01:58:32,400
Speaker 3: beer from Luca. It's a bad look, particularly when you

2430
01:58:32,480 --> 01:58:34,960
Speaker 3: have TV cameras around. Even though that might be a

2431
01:58:35,000 --> 01:58:37,440
Speaker 3: part of basketball culture, you certainly don't want that out

2432
01:58:37,480 --> 01:58:40,600
Speaker 3: there for public consumption. So Michael Finley was trying to

2433
01:58:40,720 --> 01:58:44,040
Speaker 3: do Luca Asali by protecting his image, as opposed to

2434
01:58:44,080 --> 01:58:46,120
Speaker 3: letting them have the drink and for everyone to see it.

2435
01:58:46,320 --> 01:58:49,160
Speaker 2: Andy, that's ridiculous. I tell you what. I remember when

2436
01:58:49,160 --> 01:58:50,400
Speaker 2: I used to go to the Nick games and go

2437
01:58:50,480 --> 01:58:52,680
Speaker 2: after the Nick games into the locker room, Dave de

2438
01:58:52,720 --> 01:58:54,680
Speaker 2: Bush would have a six pack right near his locker.

2439
01:58:54,880 --> 01:58:56,960
Speaker 2: You know, things have changed. I get it. Maybe it's

2440
01:58:57,040 --> 01:58:58,800
Speaker 2: not proper, But you know who I blame on this,

2441
01:58:59,200 --> 01:59:01,640
Speaker 2: the MAVs exact. If you know why, he probably wanted

2442
01:59:01,720 --> 01:59:04,320
Speaker 2: the freaking beer. Let Luca drink the beer. He's gonna

2443
01:59:04,360 --> 01:59:07,960
Speaker 2: drink the beer anyway, so who cares. It's not poison.

2444
01:59:08,120 --> 01:59:10,480
Speaker 2: It's not like injecting poison in your vein. It's a

2445
01:59:10,640 --> 01:59:13,200
Speaker 2: freaking beer. And the Bush would have a six pack

2446
01:59:13,400 --> 01:59:15,560
Speaker 2: after May he rest in peace. You have a six

2447
01:59:15,680 --> 01:59:18,480
Speaker 2: pack after every game, right by his locker after a

2448
01:59:18,560 --> 01:59:18,960
Speaker 2: Nick game.

2449
01:59:19,400 --> 01:59:21,720
Speaker 7: So the executive just took the beer and had it first.

2450
01:59:21,800 --> 01:59:25,240
Speaker 2: He wanted it. He wanted That's why, all.

2451
01:59:25,160 --> 01:59:29,839
Speaker 7: Right, Real Madrid won the Champions League yesterday. The Champions

2452
01:59:29,920 --> 01:59:32,120
Speaker 7: League Final is one of the biggest sporting events of

2453
01:59:32,240 --> 01:59:34,920
Speaker 7: the year globally, but in the US we barely even

2454
01:59:34,960 --> 01:59:39,040
Speaker 7: hear about it. Who do you blame, Bucky, I just

2455
01:59:39,120 --> 01:59:39,640
Speaker 7: blame us for.

2456
01:59:39,720 --> 01:59:42,800
Speaker 3: Not being open minded enough to really embrace soccer. Soccer

2457
01:59:42,880 --> 01:59:45,080
Speaker 3: is the world's most popular sport, but for whatever reason,

2458
01:59:45,200 --> 01:59:47,840
Speaker 3: we haven't done it. Some of that is, I would say,

2459
01:59:47,920 --> 01:59:51,080
Speaker 3: youth coaches and those things not necessarily encouraging and keeping

2460
01:59:51,120 --> 01:59:54,360
Speaker 3: the best athletes in the sport. So, yeah, the youth coaches.

2461
01:59:54,400 --> 01:59:56,400
Speaker 3: They made it where we don't view soccer like the

2462
01:59:56,520 --> 01:59:57,360
Speaker 3: rest of the world.

2463
01:59:57,480 --> 02:00:00,320
Speaker 2: You soccer, Andy, we don't hear about it because we

2464
02:00:00,360 --> 02:00:01,760
Speaker 2: don't want to hear about it. That's why. And you

2465
02:00:01,800 --> 02:00:05,160
Speaker 2: know why, Kevin Wyatt's to blame. I blame Kevin.

2466
02:00:05,200 --> 02:00:05,360
Speaker 5: Why.

2467
02:00:05,520 --> 02:00:08,840
Speaker 2: You know why, Because the announcers and the media people

2468
02:00:09,160 --> 02:00:12,360
Speaker 2: who speak TV and radio can't pronounce the names, and

2469
02:00:12,440 --> 02:00:14,400
Speaker 2: those players in those leagues you're.

2470
02:00:14,240 --> 02:00:15,960
Speaker 7: Not even here anymore. He's just kind of I don't

2471
02:00:16,160 --> 02:00:16,800
Speaker 7: care hell.

2472
02:00:16,720 --> 02:00:19,080
Speaker 2: Here, it's someone will tell him because they can't pronounce

2473
02:00:19,120 --> 02:00:21,200
Speaker 2: the names. So because they can't pronounce the names, what

2474
02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:23,680
Speaker 2: do they do? They ignore it? That's why they don't

2475
02:00:23,720 --> 02:00:26,160
Speaker 2: talk about That's why they'll talk about the National Hockey League.

2476
02:00:26,280 --> 02:00:28,880
Speaker 2: They can't pronounce the names, so rather than not pronounce

2477
02:00:28,920 --> 02:00:31,680
Speaker 2: it but do it poorly, they don't talk about the NHL.

2478
02:00:31,840 --> 02:00:34,240
Speaker 7: All right, one more quick one here, USC and head

2479
02:00:34,280 --> 02:00:36,800
Speaker 7: coach Lincoln Riley have reportedly been trying to get out

2480
02:00:36,840 --> 02:00:39,480
Speaker 7: of their Week one matchup against LSU this coming season

2481
02:00:39,600 --> 02:00:41,360
Speaker 7: for over a year now. Who do you blame?

2482
02:00:41,400 --> 02:00:41,640
Speaker 1: Andy?

2483
02:00:41,960 --> 02:00:44,480
Speaker 2: They're probably not getting enough money, that's why. But Lincoln

2484
02:00:44,560 --> 02:00:46,320
Speaker 2: Roley right now, he needs to get out of it.

2485
02:00:46,480 --> 02:00:48,560
Speaker 2: He's not gonna win, he's not gonna win that game,

2486
02:00:48,680 --> 02:00:50,640
Speaker 2: but he probably wants more money. That's why.

2487
02:00:50,920 --> 02:00:54,800
Speaker 3: All Right, Bucky, you know, I mean, look, this is

2488
02:00:54,840 --> 02:00:58,440
Speaker 3: all USC. They gotta be courageous enough to take on LSU.

2489
02:00:58,520 --> 02:01:01,320
Speaker 3: Can't run from them, all right, than you
