Don't be like legendary boxer Rocky 11 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 2: Graziano who once said I had to quit high school 12 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: because of pneumonia, not because I had it, but because 13 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: I couldn't spell it. It's gonna be a little weird 14 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 2: at first. You gotta get used to it. We got 15 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: to do playoff, right, and it's about time. The old 16 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: ap UPI voting to determine a national champion. 17 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,559 Speaker 3: That was a fagazy. Then we tried the BCS. 18 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: Meh, how about the four team Made for TV Invitational? Yeah, 19 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: I don't really think I ever completely like that. 20 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 3: Paging Florida State. 21 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 2: You get the drift, It's going to be a lot 22 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: different this year, and we're here for it. Trust me, 23 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: you're going to be too. Will take you all the 24 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 2: way to the Riode, all the way through the National 25 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 2: Championship game on January twentieth. It feels like a long 26 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 2: way away, and as usual, we'll do future will have 27 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 2: a way of arriving ahead of schedule. Let's not forget. 28 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: It's been a busy season of realignment. Fifteen schools are 29 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: on the move. They're in new conferences. Oklahoma they're now 30 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: in the SEC, and so is Texas. They still call 31 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: it the Big Keen even though there's about forty two teams. 32 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 2: Oregon joins UCLA, USC and the Washington Huskies. How about 33 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve Arnie Spaniards, Arizona Wildcats and of course 34 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: Arizona State, Dion Sanders, the Irrepressible Dion Sanders, and the 35 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: Colorado Buffs, and of course Utah they're all in the 36 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 2: Big Twelve. Meanwhile, this one I haven't got my mind 37 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 2: around yet. Cal and Stanford go to the ACC, so 38 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: it'll be by the Pacific Ocean and they play in 39 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: the Atlantic Ocean Conference. Okay, Siatto my geography and then SMU, 40 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: the SMU Mustangs, the pony Express, they join the ACC. 41 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 2: Not just then, by the way, Army, they go to 42 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 2: the American Athletic Conference and in conference USA welcomes in 43 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 2: Kennesaw State. And if you followed all that, you're better 44 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: man than me. Two of the biggest remaining pieces for 45 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: future realignment also center around Florida State. 46 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: And Notre Dame. 47 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 2: Remember it's been under the radar, but Florida State is 48 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 2: leading a lawsuit against the ACC so they can leave 49 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: that conference before twenty thirty six without having to pay 50 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 2: you know, more than five hundred million in X and fees. 51 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: What's five hundred million among friends? 52 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 3: Come on? 53 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 2: Clemson is also challenging the ACC in court, and just 54 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: for fun, of course, the conferences counter sued both schools. Yeah, 55 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: paging Judge Judy. If FSU and Clemson ended up being 56 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 2: successful in departing, that could actually set up a battle 57 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 2: between the Big ten and the SEC for two more 58 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: profile members. Meanwhile, and I'm not buying this. Notre Dame 59 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 2: and they remain the most lucrative potential catching them all 60 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 2: so long as they continue to stay independent. But they 61 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: recently extended their media rights deal with NBC Sports and 62 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: they hired the network chairman as their new athletic director, 63 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: and that deal runs through twenty twenty nine. That lines 64 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: up with the Big Tens broadcast deals that expired the 65 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 2: same season. Look, people who don't know what they're talking 66 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: about have long said that the Big Ten conference is 67 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: been seen as a logical landing spot for Notre Dame 68 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: if they'd decide to join one. I don't think it's 69 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 2: gonna happen. Halfields of McCoy's Big Ten quarted Notre Dame 70 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: back when Eisenhower as president, Notre Dame gave him the 71 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: middle finger. Then they did it again in ninety three 72 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 2: to ninety four, and Notre Dame gave him the middle 73 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: finger again. Now the Big ten's pissed, the Big forty two, 74 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it. I think it's going 75 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: to happen. That's six years down the road. Let's not 76 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 2: worry about it. But you've got realignment issues, and then 77 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: you've got the twelve team playoff, which I think is 78 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 2: going to be a banger. 79 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: I don't care what anybody says. Now. 80 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 2: Of course, a lot of folks are asking the proverbial question, 81 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 2: will this shift the tenor or the regular season? All 82 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 2: of a sudden you have one or two losses, you're 83 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 2: a national power. Might not mean that. 84 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 3: Much, right, I don't know. 85 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: Some people think or say that the regular season will 86 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 2: lose their intensity due to the expanded playoff. Remember at 87 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: one point one law to just destroy your season. But 88 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 2: I want to see how this plays out, all right. 89 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: I think most people are fairly excited, have an open 90 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 2: mind to see how the expanded playoff will keep more 91 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 2: teams in the postseason conversation. As you get later into 92 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: the season, there's so much more to play for than 93 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: just to bid. You're gonna have a chance to host 94 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 2: a first round game onto your own campus. If you 95 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: finish in the top four, you could even get a 96 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: first round by Those are both at stake. Those are 97 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: things to play for. Plus, the group of five conference 98 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: should be more competitive, should be more dramatic than ever 99 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 2: because the highest ranked conference champion in the Group of 100 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,239 Speaker 2: five will get a guaranteed bid. That'll be a moving 101 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: bar and a constant conversation all season long. So there's 102 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: a lot to unpack here, There's a lot to watch, 103 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 2: and I think it's going to keep you engaged. And 104 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 2: that number five playoff spot is going to actually be 105 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: very coveted. Probably gonna end up with Notre Dame. They 106 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: don't have to they don't have to ruin a conference 107 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: championship game to advance, and they got a couple of 108 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 2: speed bumps on their schedule, but most people feel they're 109 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: a top ten team. We'll see if Riley Leonard comes 110 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 2: back from his injury. The transfer quarterback from Duke so 111 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 2: he added all up, put it into a blender, and 112 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,559 Speaker 2: it's going to be fun. 113 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 4: You know. 114 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 3: It also is going to be fun watching. 115 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: The follow up to Michigan and the Michigan football program. 116 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 2: They all remember the defending national champions They made people 117 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 2: like Connor Stallions a household name and showing Moore a 118 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 2: household name. Jim Harball, he's gone. 119 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:37,679 Speaker 3: He gone. 120 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 2: You knew it was inevitable at some point. Never got 121 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: over losing the Super Bowl to his brother. 122 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 3: He wants to win one. 123 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 2: He's in Los Angeles now. But the bottom line is this, 124 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: Michigan football goes on. They got Texas Week two and 125 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: they get to play USC and of course Ohio State 126 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: is looking for revenge and they lost a lot, but 127 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 2: they bring a lot back as well. They don't have 128 00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 2: the same depth they had, they don't have the quarterback. 129 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: They had pretty good defensive line. But what's life like 130 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 2: inside the Ivory tar will being in My good buddy 131 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: Dan Leach, my former compadre, over at ninety seven to 132 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: one in Detroit's been many years there and you will 133 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 2: get a kickout of Dan's enthusiasm. If you can just 134 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: get him to get over the shyness. I think he's 135 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: gonna be just fine.

And we're back at it this year, 175 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 2: and we'll have them on throughout the year, covering lines 176 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 2: as well. My good former Compadrea from ninety seven one 177 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: in Detroit. Say hello to Dan Leach. Dan, how you doing, 178 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: buddy the b man? 179 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 4: Do it great? I was told that because of some 180 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 4: of my appearances, you won multiple awards. I mean you 181 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 4: went him on your own, but I guess I helped. 182 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 4: I's great to be here, Ah, you. 183 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 3: Very much helped. 184 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 2: When you come out, I'll take it to Jack in 185 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 2: the Box and we'll get some tacos and curly fries. 186 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 4: How's that so good? I thought we were doing sushi 187 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 4: next time too. 188 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 2: I don't like sushi, you only when it's cooked. But 189 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 2: maybe that's your second dinner. All right, Dan, let's dive 190 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 2: right into it. Yes, sir, uh. Look, big year in 191 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: Michigan football last year. Now you've got the proverbial hangover, 192 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: if there's such a thing. Obviously Michigan lost a lot, 193 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: but you bring back some studs, Will Johnson, Colston Lovelin, 194 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 2: good defensive line, don't have the death brand new defensive coordinator. 195 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 2: Start wherever you want to start trying to get it anyway. 196 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 2: Start wherever you want to start, Dan, and take us 197 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: what it looks like the inside of the Avery Tower 198 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 2: at Michigan Football right now. 199 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 4: Well, listen, this is this is the bad news. The 200 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 4: bad news is is that it's you know, very tough 201 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 4: to not just repeat in college football. But you know 202 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 4: there's a lot of talent, a lot of parody. The 203 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 4: Big ten is now to pack ten Big ten. I mean, 204 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 4: it's just crazy. The good news is that Michigan won 205 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 4: the national title. So it's not I mean, obviously there's 206 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 4: always gonna be fresh to win, but there's also a 207 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 4: twelve team playoff. Bernie is obviously everyone listening and you 208 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 4: well know, so it's not like you have to go 209 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 4: right back and you know, beat Ohio State no matter what, 210 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 4: or you've got to go, you know, go eleven to 211 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 4: zero to start in the season. It's about building to 212 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 4: a crescendo as opposed to last year. Where as I 213 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 4: was on your show, as you mentioned many times, at 214 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: all the Michigan games, at a lot of the road 215 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 4: games around that program and you could just see what 216 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 4: JJ McCarthy brought, obviously, what Blake korm was, all the 217 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 4: different players on both sides of the ball, you know, 218 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 4: doing everything for the leader Jim Harbaugh, who, of course, 219 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 4: you know, obviously took off to go to the Chargers. 220 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 4: But you know, this was a guy that I called for. 221 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 4: It's had a couple few years ago because nothing was happening. 222 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 4: He weren't being a good team. And I'm so glad 223 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 4: that didn't that I was wrong because when I was 224 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 4: in that stadium in Houston with my shirt off, face 225 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 4: painted and you know, screaming in the air at ecstasy 226 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 4: for Michigan's first national title since I was in college, 227 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 4: it's all by him. Now, That's what it's all about. 228 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 4: But the thing is that I think that a lot 229 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 4: of different programs and fans of those programs can be 230 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 4: truly excited about, especially in Michigan, is that it's a 231 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 4: twelve team playoff. You can have some stumbles if you're 232 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 4: a team that's kind of rebuilding on the fly, which 233 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 4: they are with you know, hopefully a quarterback in alex Orangy. 234 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 4: I know, you know, Jack Tunnell has been talked about 235 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 4: his baby the guy that he has had a little 236 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 4: more experience to find. But Alex Oregon is going to 237 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 4: be the guy that looks like to start against Presdo State. 238 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 4: And you know you mentioned obviously there's been some losses, 239 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 4: but listen, Donovan Edwards is a heismang antenor he's back. 240 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 4: The old line's still gonna be solid. You mentioned my 241 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 4: man Colton Low and I talked about him many times 242 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 4: on your show. You'd have to do about a difference maker, 243 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 4: and he was the guy that came through over and 244 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 4: over again. They've got what I will say, though, Ernie, 245 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 4: in my entire life of forty seven years on this earth, 246 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 4: I think the toughest schedule they've ever had. Now most 247 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 4: of the tough games are at home. But that being said, 248 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 4: this is a team that's still got a ridiculous amount 249 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 4: of talent, continues to get four and five stars even 250 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 4: with Hardball leaving. It's gonna be a lot of fun, 251 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 4: but it's gonna be tough to get back to the mountaintop. Well, 252 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 4: they have a chance, sure, but they got to start 253 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 4: off with that win over Texas And I'm not forgetting 254 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 4: about Fresdo State. And let's be honest, they'll beat Frensdo 255 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 4: State in the big House. I'll be there next Saturday night. 256 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 4: But Texas early in the year. USC, early in the year, 257 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 4: you got to get off to a good start with 258 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 4: these new teams coming in from the Pac twelve. And 259 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 4: I was in Texas being a great non conference game. 260 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 2: So Michigan has the luxury all playing their first five 261 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 2: games at home. But in those first five you do 262 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: have a Texas and you do have a USC before 263 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 2: your first conference game against Minnesota. Michigan will be good, 264 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: but you gotta be honest. They don't have the depth 265 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 2: they had last year. But you do have guys like 266 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 2: Will Johnson or a first round draft choice who were 267 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 2: is you most Before you get into the meet of 268 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 2: the schedule of those first five games. 269 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 4: You know, you make a great point by the way 270 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 4: they do not they're not as loaded. I mean, listen, 271 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 4: I mentioned they've got a lot of depth because they're 272 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 4: one of the best teams in the country. They're always 273 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 4: going to be a top five ten recruiting class as 274 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 4: long as they stay up there. But they don't have 275 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 4: the same depth. So that is a concern, and that's 276 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 4: my whole point about there being a twelfth playoff billions 277 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 4: are virescendo, which is what you know, teams have not 278 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 4: been able to do it till now. That be said, 279 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 4: when you look at that schedule, obviously the game of 280 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 4: the works the most, and I'm excited to be there 281 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 4: for that nude startup Fox a couple of weeks, I 282 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 4: get Texas tickets are going to like eight hundred dollars 283 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 4: is nuts. But I'll tell you that that kid yours, obviously, 284 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 4: you know, is the Heisman attender. That is a really 285 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 4: well coached team they've got. They are stacked on both 286 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 4: sides of the ball. They deserve that. I know, preseason 287 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 4: the rankings is gonna be a tons of Dames Vernie, 288 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 4: but they deserve that preseason top five ranging. That of course, 289 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 4: is the game that get Church the most. But listen, 290 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 4: I don't think USC is even in the same sentence 291 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 4: as a Texas. But that's gonna be a tough game 292 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,599 Speaker 4: too because USC has athletes. I know, they don't have 293 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 4: Caleb Williams, but they've got athletes. They're gonna be coming 294 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 4: in trying to win their first game at Michigan Stadium, 295 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 4: you know, forever. And so those are the two games 296 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 4: of course you got to look at But to me, 297 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 4: if Michigan, you know, kind of builds into it and 298 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 4: then plays a nice game against Freszo, they're twenty one 299 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 4: and a half points favorites, I think they're gonna win 300 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 4: by more than that. They got Texas the following week. 301 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 4: If they can be in that game till the end, 302 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 4: I mean, they can still lose that game and still 303 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 4: be a team that does of this year. But they've 304 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 4: got to come out against a very good Texas team 305 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 4: and look like they're good enough to be a playoff team. 306 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 4: As this you know, season's gonna start obviously early and 307 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 4: build to what it needs to later on. That's the 308 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 4: game that you really got to look at it for 309 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 4: the Wolverines and kind of text yourself, no Jim Harbaugh, 310 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 4: no JJ McCarthy, no Blake Corbin, so many others. You've 311 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 4: got to come out and be in that game the 312 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 4: whole way. If you don't win it. 313 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 2: Talk with Dan Leach Michigan Campadre. We go back a 314 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 2: long ways. Dan, we haven't even talked about Oregon. 315 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 3: They visited the Big House, and I'm going to break 316 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: up the party. I'm actually picking Oregon to win. To 317 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 3: Big ten this year. 318 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 8: But give me your Oregon daunt. 319 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: Well, they are awesome and they're gonna bring an offense. 320 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: It's gonna rec havoc and they have. They're far better 321 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 2: in the interior lines than people realize. So you got 322 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: Texas at home, USC at home, Oregon at home when 323 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: I haven't gotten to the school down south yet. That 324 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 2: you're you're pretty good at this, Dan. Let's fast forward 325 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 2: to Thanksgiving. What are the Wolverines record after eleven games? 326 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 2: Best case scenario and realistically, well, yeah. 327 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 4: Listen, you don't be out all they shoot to see. 328 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 4: It's raight. Last year was literally I mean, for the 329 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 4: people that haven't heard before, I've covered Michigan in better 330 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 4: fans since I was a kid. I've never picked Michigan 331 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 4: to go on to feed it ever, and obviously last year, 332 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 4: you know at the twelve gieth schedule, that's the first 333 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 4: time I've ever done it. I'mout picking to go on 334 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 4: defeated this year, I think the best case scenario for 335 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 4: the Wolverine this season with all the crazy Pac twelve 336 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 4: teams and as I mentioned, most of those games obviously 337 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 4: at home Oregon, which we'll get to the minute of Texas, 338 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 4: those tough games usc All had in the big outs, 339 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 4: and you mentioned they opened with their first five games 340 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 4: at home. But you know, the Oregon until Gabriel probably 341 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 4: the best quarterback in the country. I mean, he's They 342 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 4: are ridiculous. They are well coached. They're gonna be unafraid 343 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 4: to go into Michigan statey as. You remember, they just 344 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 4: destroyed the Wolverine The last time they were there was 345 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 4: a forty nine to. 346 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 3: Seven Dan That was the week after they lost. 347 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 4: To a state that was that was Denas Stixon before 348 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 4: Dennis Dixon. I don't know you remember, yes, yeah, I 349 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 4: had to watch that game from a bar in Atlanta 350 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: because I was in Atlanta going to see Dave Matthews 351 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 4: man at Piedmont Park with the Alder Brothers opening for 352 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 4: a forty thousand pieces of a charity show. I was 353 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 4: at a bar throwing up and I didn't even drink 354 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 4: back then. But you know, you look at what's the 355 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 4: best case scenario is to be tended to. I think 356 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 4: the Wolverines that's their best case scenario. Listen until I 357 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 4: stinking beat him. I'm not taking Michigan to lose our states. 358 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: Get us jump to that game. Let's jump to that 359 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 2: game because long before Ohio State. I know you don't 360 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 2: cover Ohio State, but you've got your finger on the 361 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 2: Pulse and Big Ten as well as anybody. So the 362 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 2: bottom line is this, Ohio State's got to visit Oregon 363 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 2: and what I mean Ryan Days like fifty eight and six, 364 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 2: I guess everybody else not named Michigan or Georgia, right, 365 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 2: I mean, so the bottom line is I hear they're 366 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: really itchy there, and you got Chip Kelly on staff, 367 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 2: which is ominous to me. If Ohio State were to 368 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 2: lose to Oregon and lose to Michigan, what do you 369 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 2: think happens to Ryan Day? 370 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 4: Well, listen, you've first thought you look at you they've 371 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 4: had such great teams and teams that maybe and in 372 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 4: some ways had more talent overall than Michigan. They still 373 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 4: beat them, as will Howard vetteran tzst round. I don't 374 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 4: think so, but you look at what they've been able 375 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 4: to not do. You mentioned all the great wins against 376 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 4: teams not named Michigan. And if I'll tell you if 377 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 4: they if they lose, bottom line, berdie. If they lose 378 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 4: to Michigan, Rye Day is. 379 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 3: Out you know, really, you think that's a fad. 380 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 4: One hundred percent if they lose. Listen, if they lose 381 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 4: to Michigan, it still go to the playoff and you know, 382 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 4: go to the semi final, to the final maybe. But 383 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 4: if they lose to Michigan, they're probably not going to 384 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 4: the Big Ten title game and they're probably not going 385 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 4: to well I guess, I guess they get some good 386 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 4: to the playoffs. But to me, if you lose to 387 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 4: Michigan for the fourth year in a row, after dominating 388 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 4: them under Urban Maher and others, and it was an afterthought, 389 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 4: where like I would always say, if I was an 390 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 4: Iowa State fan and until Michigan beats them, why would 391 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 4: you pick against them. I'm saying the same thing about 392 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 4: the Buck guys right now, until they proved they can 393 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 4: beat the Wolverines. And of course they got that game 394 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 4: in CLUBUS. But I was there a couple of years 395 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 4: ago with my shirt off, by the way, and about 396 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 4: twenty thousand the Michigan fans laughing at the Buck guy 397 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 4: fans who can say nothing because we told them. But 398 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 4: I'll just say, you look at what this Ohio State 399 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 4: team has not been able to do in a Ryan Day. 400 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 4: It's win in the biggest moments. The National semi final, 401 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 4: they probably should have won that game. The games they 402 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 4: get to the Wolverines and they were in and a 403 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 4: couple probably should have won. We're had a great chance 404 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 4: of winning. If they lose to Michigan and go four 405 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,199 Speaker 4: to row in the lost column after obviously what all 406 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 4: the other coaches have done, I think he is out 407 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 4: and less, like I said, for something. 408 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 3: If they lose. 409 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 2: To Michigan, but but go to the playoff and get 410 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 2: to the final, get to the championship game and lose it. 411 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. If they if they lose 412 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 4: to Michigan and some I'll get to the at the 413 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 4: worst semi final or the national title game and lose, 414 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 4: maybe they give him a little love. 415 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 9: But if they don't, if they lose to Michigan and 416 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 9: it cost them like. 417 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 4: A first round loss in the playoff, but they missed 418 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 4: the playoff entirely, he is out. And I'm hearing that 419 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 4: from not just Michigan and Ohio State sources, but people 420 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 4: I really trust around the Buck Eye program. 421 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 3: I don't think urban Meyer will ever coach again. 422 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,479 Speaker 4: To you, I do not I do not, and if 423 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 4: he does, I just I would be stunned if he 424 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 4: coaches again. 425 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. Wrap it up with Dan Leech, our 426 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 2: guy from Detroit. You'll hear him throughout the football season 427 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 2: on my show U And of course we'll talk about 428 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 2: the lines in a few weeks here Dan, But I 429 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: want to stay in Michigan and college football. 430 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 4: Uh Burnie really quick though, go to cover at Sports Illustrated. 431 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 3: Let me let me let me tell you something I had. 432 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 2: I had lunch say for some very sharp guys here 433 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 2: in Las Vegas, Genphius, Bill Krackman, Matt Ewans Vsen. 434 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 3: Everybody thinks the lines uh. 435 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 2: Are gonna be right there, and I think they'll be 436 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl, unless they have to go on 437 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 2: the road to play in the NFC Championship game. Then 438 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 2: I'll bets are off because hothouse teams Dan just don't 439 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: win on the damn road in. 440 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 4: January, and so I think it could be if that 441 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 4: game the fort Field, they're the Super Bowl. 442 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: If that game is at Forts and they had them 443 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 2: down by seventeen, So if they have to go to Philadelphia, 444 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 2: even if they have to go to Green Bay, if 445 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 2: they have to go to whatever, pick your poison. I'm worried. 446 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 2: But if they're at home, so we're a long way 447 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: between now and then give me your championship game in 448 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 2: college football? Who your national championship is? If you had 449 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: a gun to your head right now? 450 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 4: Oh and obviously, like I'm so excited that we finally 451 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 4: have the twelve team playoff and we probably should have 452 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 4: had a long time ago. But to me, I will 453 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 4: say this, it's not gonna be Michigan. But how can 454 00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 4: you go against Georgia? And I'm one hundred percent with 455 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 4: you on the Oregon Ducks. I think Georgia and Oregon playing. 456 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 4: I mean, Texas will be around, they'll have a chance. 457 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 4: But right now, but you know, nurf gun into my head. 458 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 4: Georgia and Oregon buck eye fail again, will breathe the playoffs. 459 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 4: But I think that the Oregon Ducks are going to 460 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 4: be your national champion. And it looks like it sounds 461 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 4: like you feel the same way. 462 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there can be. I think they're very 463 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 2: much on the short list, and I do think they're 464 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 2: gonna win the Big ten.

The Snake's blown out the Red Slax twelve 500 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 10: to two, so LA's lead in the division sits at 501 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 10: four games against the Diamondbacks four and a half on 502 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 10: San Diego. 503 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 7: In that chaotic Al. 504 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 10: East, the Orioles and Yankees both win Baltimore's seven and 505 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 10: five victory against the Astros, while New York shuts out 506 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 10: the Rockies three nothing, so New York still leads Baltimore. 507 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 7: By a game and a half. The AL Central really 508 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 7: tightening up. 509 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 10: The Guardians follow the Rangers five to three, twins, unable 510 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 10: to take advantage losing to the Cardinals six to one, 511 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 10: but the Royals do beat the Phillies seven to four, 512 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 10: so Cleveland holds a one game lead on Kansas City 513 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 10: two on Minnesota Mariners get back into the wind call 514 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 10: and they get an extra inning six to five victory 515 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 10: against the Giants. First game has since firing Scott Service 516 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 10: and a major development in college athletics. ESPN and The 517 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 10: Athletic reporting earlier today that the Big Twelve is in 518 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 10: talk with Yukon about joining the league in all sports. 519 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 10: No vote has occurred yet for potential Huskies membership, nor 520 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 10: is one close to happening. The reports do say, however, 521 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 10: there has been pushback among several members in the Big 522 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 10: Twelve that would need to be overcome, primarily Yukon's investment 523 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 10: into football and their competitive competitiveness in it as well. 524 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 10: That's why the potential start day for Yukon in the 525 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 10: Big Twelve would be the twenty thirty one season. 526 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 7: Thank you, Bernie, all right. 527 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 2: Jef, nicely done. You here till two am with us? 528 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 2: Beautiful all right. Tua has played for two different coaches 529 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: during his four year career. He had some choice words 530 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 2: for his former boss earlier this week. 531 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 3: I think you should hear this, brick. Let's hear this. 532 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 12: If you woke up every morning and I told you 533 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 12: you suck at what you did, that you don't belong 534 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 12: doing what you do, that you shouldn't be here, that 535 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 12: this guy should be here, that you haven't earned this right, 536 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 12: and you hear it more and more you start to 537 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 12: actually believe that. 538 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 2: So very interesting responses that it elicited. If Tua were 539 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 2: to do this, why would he do it now? I 540 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: think it's simple, he got the bag, he likes his 541 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 2: new coach. And to be fair, I think it was 542 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 2: during an interview with Dan Levatard and Stu Gotts and 543 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 2: he was asked the question. So it wasn't like he 544 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 2: was running his mouth because I think not only is 545 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 2: not only as to a really solid citizen and an 546 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 2: exceptional human being. I mean played, He's played for tough 547 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 2: coaches before, so let's let's be clear about that. But 548 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 2: based on you know, to his answer, he responds better 549 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 2: to a positive coach. Right, Flores went the opposite route 550 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 2: to try to motivate his players. Look the great Billy Martin, 551 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 2: who managed the New York Yanke Institute World Series championships, 552 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 2: once said, there are twenty five players on a baseball roster, 553 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 2: ten who like it, ten who hate you, five who 554 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: can't make up their mind. Your job is to keep 555 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 2: the five who can't make up their mind away from 556 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 2: the ten. 557 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 3: Who hate you. That was his philosophy. 558 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 2: Because he's joking, Jimmy Johnson, we treat everybody the same 559 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 2: different You have to size up who you're dealing with 560 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,959 Speaker 2: and understand what they respond to psychology. One on one, 561 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 2: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement horse jumps over the rail. You 562 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 2: give an apple positive reinforcement horse missus the rail to 563 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 2: club them over the head. That's how some people respond. 564 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: Brian Flores, who's a great defensive coordinator, well he actually 565 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: had some players defend him. And this is really a 566 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: complex topic. I would just say this that clearly two 567 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 2: has performed better under his current coach, Mike mcdani who 568 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 2: was a real character. He can played football Yale, and 569 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: it's obvious he's happier and more content. And the Dolphins 570 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 2: scored more points than anybody last year, so they their 571 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: offense is real and I think people considered them to 572 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 2: be on the short list to advance to the AFC 573 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 2: as long as they don't have to go play in 574 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: some cold. 575 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 3: City in January. But it sort of raises another question. 576 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 2: As well, which we're going to have a little fun 577 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: with tonight in about twenty five minutes during the midnight hour, 578 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 2: you'll give us a call eight seven seven nine nine 579 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 2: six six three six nine eight seven seven nine to 580 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 2: nine on Fox. What was your What were your quick 581 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 2: thoughts about Tua? Are you empathetic meeting? Maybe you've had 582 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: an abusive boss, Maybe you've had a bad boss. Maybe 583 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 2: you've had somebody who didn't exactly speak the King's language 584 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 2: when it came time to dealing with you. I think 585 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 2: we've all had one of those. Maybe you got a 586 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 2: quick story for us. How did you handle it? 587 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 3: What were your thoughts? 588 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 2: And when you handled it, however you handled it, how 589 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 2: did the boss who was the bad boss respond? 590 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 3: And by the way, did you quit your job or 591 00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 3: did you remain? 592 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 2: But it became tenuous, So kind of a multifaceted midnight 593 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 2: hour this time, and the subject is simple, it's very 594 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 2: relatable if you observed how Tua described his situation with 595 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 2: his former boss, and clearly it had an effect on him. 596 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 2: If you listen to the tenor and the timber in 597 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 2: his voice when he's describing this, it's pretty obvious it 598 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 2: was a little on the painful side for him. 599 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 3: I think. 600 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 2: I mean, he's a world class athlete and he comes 601 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 2: from great stock and he won a national championship at Alabama. 602 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 3: But he's human. 603 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: He's human, and he may have a bit of a 604 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 2: sensitive side. On the other hand, there are people who 605 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 2: backed Brian Florence, saying to it, you know, he should 606 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 2: have been a little tougher, right, he should have he 607 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 2: should have not spoken, whatever the case may be. And 608 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: again it becomes a relatable dynamic to the folks listening 609 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: as well, because the bottom line is, maybe you've had 610 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: a bad boss. I'd like to hear the stories. You know, 611 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 2: we want to use the economy words, get to our point, 612 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. But it makes for it 613 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 2: actually makes for good to radio. I did this and 614 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: did this in Detroit a long time ago with Rob Parker. 615 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 2: Some of the calls we got were amazing. People that 616 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 2: were on road trips and their boss called and chewed 617 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 2: them out, and they quit their job on the spot 618 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 2: and flew home. 619 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 3: And you know, they might have had been married, kids 620 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 3: and a whole it didn't matter. They just they had it. 621 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 2: They'd had enough and they couldn't take it anymore. And 622 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: in almost every case, the decision they made turned out 623 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 2: to be the right one and they went on with 624 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 2: their lines with all having to you know, have this 625 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: damocles hanging over their neck. So that'll be a topic one, 626 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 2: Tua Brian Flores. It's relatable. You know, how do you 627 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: think to would handle that? Maybe you don't like the 628 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 2: way to a handle that, And ever so quickly, have 629 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 2: you had a situation you'd like to share with us, 630 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 2: because we've all had that boss And you know what, 631 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 2: I've had bosses that talked tough but were very competent, 632 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 2: successful people and maybe they were making you back the 633 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 2: ones you don't like to talk to for the ones 634 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 2: that are incompetent, because if someone's incompetent and an idiot, 635 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 2: that's a bad parlay. And a lot of times people 636 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 2: rise to their Peter principle. They rise to the level 637 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 2: of you know, failure in life where they're they're you know, 638 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 2: they're eligible for promotion until they get to that plateau 639 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 2: to where they've reached their Peter principle. So you get 640 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 2: where we're going with that. Coming up, I want to 641 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: share with you what I think the second topic will be, 642 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 2: and I think it's appropriate, very simply because we've got 643 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 2: college football in nine and a half hours, and the 644 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 2: narrative this season will be far different as the season 645 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 2: plays out, and I think it'll be forefront in terms 646 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 2: of the update each week and who's where as we 647 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 2: head toward this month long playoff.

Figuredly, 668 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 2: the minute hour is the way of saying you got 669 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 2: the final word on some of these subjects tonight. The 670 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 2: first subject will beat Tua to a takolaloa and his 671 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 2: comments with respect to his former boss Brian Flores, with 672 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 2: a lot of character for him, and he was asked, 673 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 2: and he answered, and he was truthful. It elicited some 674 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 2: interesting reaction, including a reaction from Brian Florest. 675 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 3: Some people, well, you know, had Flores's back. 676 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 2: Others were you know that two was back, and some 677 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 2: people were maybe a little put off by the timing. 678 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 2: Why didn't you wait so long? Well, to me, that's 679 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 2: I know why. He's already got the back. Now he's 680 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 2: got two feet from me on the ground. He's got 681 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 2: a good relationship with Mike McDaniel's productions up and so, 682 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 2: and he was asked, okay, So it leads it begs 683 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 2: the question, how about you. Have you ever had a 684 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 2: verbally abusive boss? How did you handle it. I don't 685 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 2: know anybody who hasn't. Seriously, all right, let's get to 686 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 2: the second topic of the Midnight Hour, Because nine hours 687 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 2: and thirteen minutes you kick off in Dublin, not Dublin, Ohio, 688 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 2: from where Brady is from, Brady Quinn, Dublin, Ireland. Help 689 00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 2: yourself do a pint. The twelve team College play Off 690 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 2: has been bandied about. There are most people I think 691 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 2: love it, some don't, some are in the middle. Most 692 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 2: haven't made up their mind yet. So what I thought 693 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: we would do before I throw it to the phones 694 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 2: is talk about what some of the general pros and 695 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 2: cons of the twelve team college football Playoff is this year, 696 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 2: because there are are pros and there are cons. First pro, 697 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 2: the obvious one. You get more teams involved. You heard 698 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 2: me say it earlier. 699 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 3: All Right, the. 700 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 2: APUPI voting thing was just a big fugazy the BCS 701 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: no No. And then you have the four team made 702 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 2: for TV Invitational tournament. Okay, we did it because we 703 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: had to. There was nothing better. If you're starving and 704 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: all you got in the fridge as the team is brito, 705 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 2: you're gonna eat it and you're probably gonna like it 706 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: because you're starving. Well, now we have twelve teams involved, 707 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 2: and the format calls for the sixth highest rank conference 708 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 2: champions has been included. So now the group of five 709 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 2: is guaranteed to be represented, all right. And beyond that, 710 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 2: you're gonna have viewers for some high quality matchups. You're 711 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 2: gonna have some matt large teams. There are more teams involved. 712 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 2: That's a big pro for me. Is there a con 713 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 2: sure people are always gonna complain? Look what happened last year? 714 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:24,919 Speaker 2: The nation was divided on Florida State when the College 715 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 2: Football Playoff Committee left Florida State. Yes, they were undefeated, 716 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 2: they were ACC champions out of the playoffs. There's a 717 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 2: provision having to do with injuries, and they basically leaned 718 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 2: against their bylaws because it's made for TV invitational tournament. 719 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 3: That's why. 720 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 2: But that wouldn't happen if there's If this year's playoff 721 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: was last year, Florida State would have been in no 722 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 2: two ways about it. They would buy virtue of the 723 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 2: rules they'd have been in because they were ACC champions, 724 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 2: all right. Now the field's expanded to twelve teams, and 725 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 2: it would have got argued on the field The only 726 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 2: difference is that the number five seed now on the 727 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 2: current format has a much more convincing argument compared to 728 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 2: whoever was the first team out of the twelve team format. 729 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 2: Regardless guaranteed you wait, there'll be some complaints. But the 730 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 2: thirteenth if you think you're thirteenth, if you're not in 731 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 2: the top twelve with all you can do to get in, 732 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 2: your complaints are largely I think in the fall on 733 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:20,479 Speaker 2: deaf ears. 734 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 3: But there are going to be complaints. 735 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 2: So the pro more teams, the con you watch, it's 736 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 2: not gonna be perfect, They're still gonna be complaints. The 737 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 2: next one, I think is a big pro, and that 738 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 2: is you have a longer path, a more difficult path. 739 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 2: You have to win more games, which I think leads 740 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 2: to a true champion. Tom Izzo loved the Dude Michigan State. 741 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: He always talked about surviving advance. You gotta win six 742 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 2: games in a row to win the NCAA Championship, all right. 743 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 2: One of the issues with only having four teams last 744 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: year is at the national champion only had to go 745 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 2: through two teams to win it all, and even then, 746 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 2: there are arguments that the four teams in the playoffs 747 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 2: might not have been the four best teams, whether the 748 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 2: four bests where they four deserving the four they get 749 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: you the best TV ratings, you get the drift one 750 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 2: of the new format. The national champion will have to 751 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 2: go through four teams or three if they earn the 752 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: first round by. But if you earn that first round by, 753 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 2: you have truly earned it. So now you've got a 754 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 2: longer path to the national championship. That's gonna, I believe, 755 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 2: when it's all said and done, most likely lead to 756 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 2: more people accepting the fact that a team that actually 757 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 2: won the national championship truly deserved to win it. But 758 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 2: here comes a con This is the first time they're 759 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 2: going to be buys the four highest ranked teams. They're 760 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 2: going to receive a buy in the first round because 761 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 2: they earned it, and they'll billy a home game on campus. 762 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 2: But again, you go back to the regular season. That 763 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 2: means making the top four still mean something. Now college 764 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 2: football fans love to argue this just adds another bar 765 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 2: topic to debate and argue over. It's inevitable someone's going 766 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: home pissed off bank it. So how big of an 767 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 2: advantage is to buy what we don't know yet that 768 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:16,720 Speaker 2: you have to be determined. 769 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 3: I get it. You got one more a week to lick. 770 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 2: Your wounds, you get a game at home. You only 771 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 2: have to win three games instead of four. But that's 772 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,320 Speaker 2: gonna be the by product of having a good regular season. However, 773 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 2: you can bet there's gonna be plenty of fans upset 774 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 2: over which teams are granted to buy and which ones 775 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 2: we're not. 776 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 3: That's a con. Here's a pro. I think this is great. 777 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 2: You're gonna see games actually played in the first round 778 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 2: on college campuses, not just neutral sites. And one of 779 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 2: this new format, college football playoff games are gonna be 780 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 2: played at two of the new year's six bowl games 781 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 2: on a rotating basis, So you're gonna have two teams 782 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 2: scoring off on the opposite end of the country. For example, 783 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 2: Alabama and Michigan they met in the Rose Bowl last year. 784 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 2: Neither school was remotely close to Alabama or Pasadena. That 785 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 2: hadn't been much of an issue in the past. And 786 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is, we don't know how 787 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 2: it's going to affect the playoff teams. Teams can win 788 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 2: on the road, teams can lose at home, but there'll 789 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 2: be a new layer of excitement in the college football 790 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 2: playoff because first rounds taking places on the campuses of 791 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 2: participating teams is only going to add to the accpement, 792 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 2: which leads to another big con You're gonna hear complaints. 793 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 2: Likely there'll be conferences that are favored. Can you spell SEC? 794 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 2: Can you be Big Ten? Somebody already called it the 795 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 2: SEC Big Ten Invitational. No one's ever going to silence 796 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 2: that it is not out of the realm of possibility 797 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 2: that as many as six of the twelve teams could 798 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,359 Speaker 2: be from those two conferences. Not out of the realm 799 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 2: of possibility. But the key is you're going to have 800 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 2: more meaningful postseason games with epic matchups and the final 801 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 2: cont which I'm not buying. People think this is slightly 802 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 2: controversial because it means could mean a less meaningful regular season. 803 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 3: Not buying it. 804 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 2: I think the regular season will still be very meaningful 805 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 2: with a twelve team format. It's almost to guarantee some 806 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: people are gonna say it's a less meaningful regular season 807 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:18,839 Speaker 2: because maybe there'll be a three loss team that makes 808 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 2: it in there. However, when you get to that playoff, 809 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 2: which starts December twentieth, and goes for a full month. 810 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 3: You're here for it. So those are our two topics tonight. 811 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: Tua his comments Brian Flores, who sighed, Yeah, have you 812 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 2: ever had a verbally abusive boss? Tell us about it? 813 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 2: How'd you handle it? How'd they handle it? In the 814 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 2: twelve team college Playoff? You heard me give the pros? 815 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 2: You heard me give the cons? 816 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 3: Do you like it? Do you not like it?

But I have had bosses 909 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 14: and supervisors, you know, I think that weren't necessarily kind 910 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 14: of in your corner so so to speak, you know, 911 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 14: and so quietly, you know, they were a little bit 912 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 14: more distant, you know. I think that's been my kind 913 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 14: of experience, you know, where you're trying to do all 914 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 14: the right things and you're not getting as much feedback 915 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 14: you're not getting you know, and then like at the 916 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 14: end of the day, you know you're not you. 917 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 9: Know, supported by uh, by those you work with. 918 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 3: That's kind of been my. 919 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 2: Uh personal and real quickly regarding to or were you 920 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,239 Speaker 2: were you put off in any way by what he 921 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 2: said this week or was hey, let him let the 922 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 2: man speak his mind. 923 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 3: He's been a pretty good soldier. 924 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,240 Speaker 14: My opinion was that his comments were towards the tail 925 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 14: end of the interview, and I thought the totality of 926 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 14: the interview was more about, you know, his story coming 927 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,720 Speaker 14: from Hawaii, you know, to be the star in Alabama, 928 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,240 Speaker 14: make it to the NFL, and then specifically the physical 929 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 14: challenges that he's had since he's being in the NFL, 930 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 14: most notably the concussions, and then how he's kind of 931 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 14: So that was the totality, and he mentioned that Brian 932 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 14: Flora is kind of towards the tail end. I didn't 933 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 14: think it was a hit piece, so to speak, you know, 934 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 14: but it didn't put floors in any sort of you know, 935 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 14: prominent light. And I liked how Brian Flora has kind 936 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 14: of side steps all of the drama and the tornado 937 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 14: and the noise, took the high road to kind of, 938 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 14: you know, move forward for Tua's sake. I think that 939 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 14: however he meant it, that's the real way that being perceived. 940 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 14: And so he does have additional pressure on himself in 941 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 14: a pivotal year for the for the Miami Dolphins, and 942 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 14: if they struggle, and that a FC East, which has 943 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 14: much improved in AfD overall, which is a just by 944 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 14: far the stronger conference, this is going to come back 945 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 14: to bite him in the behind so quickly. 946 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 9: It's gonna, it's going to it's going to follow him. 947 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 14: Now over to college football, Bernie, I'm excited about the 948 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 14: twelve teams. 949 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 9: I like the fact you know that the wealth is 950 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:06,320 Speaker 9: being spread. 951 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 14: The most interesting narrative to me though, this fifth, sixth, 952 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 14: and seventeen that were right in the fringe and not 953 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 14: and didn't. 954 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 4: Get in, i e. 955 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,360 Speaker 14: The Florida States of the world, and furthermore, the tenth, eleven, 956 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 14: and twelve seeds. I really want to see if they 957 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 14: can hold their own against the big boys, against the Georgia's, 958 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 14: against Ohio State, the Oregons, and the Texas. The Texas says, 959 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 14: rather than go out there and get embarrassed because so 960 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 14: many years we've seen the SEC gets into the BCF 961 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 14: championship game and just molly walks whoever their opponent is 962 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 14: and it's not even competitive. And so that's where I 963 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 14: think that the real challenge is everybody's making money. It's 964 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,720 Speaker 14: going to increase, you know, the revenue and the nil 965 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 14: so make your money, So that part is given. But 966 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 14: I do want to see if these teams can really 967 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 14: get in there and challenge and beat these you know, 968 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 14: the rulers, or if it's just going to be a 969 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 14: confirmation of what the current narrative, which is the SEC 970 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 14: and the best of the Big ten just absolutely dominate. 971 00:46:58,960 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 14: They's taking time, Bernie. 972 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 2: Thanks Andrew. I was appreciated, and the good news is 973 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 2: we're going to find out on the field. It's no 974 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 2: longer going to be theoretical. It's no longer going to 975 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 2: be a courtroom argument. It's going to be on the field. 976 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,840 Speaker 2: And I do expect them to be upsets. There is 977 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,359 Speaker 2: in March madness. We'll have to let it play out. 978 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 2: But on a one game affair, anything can happen. We've 979 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 2: seen some massive upsets in college football over the years. 980 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 2: Stephen in Kansas City joins us. Stephen, you've been a 981 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 2: staple in this segment, are you. 982 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 9: Hey? 983 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 17: Bernie?

I really sincerely 985 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 17: enjoy the format this year. I think it's it's we're 986 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:48,479 Speaker 17: gonna I would really like to see conference champions only 987 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,799 Speaker 17: with those top four seeds unless there's a great group 988 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 17: of five team. I think that's going to be a 989 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 17: bed rock principle of this new new playoff. That'll add something. 990 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 17: What I'm worried about. Is the is the is the 991 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 17: format of having that first game at a home time. 992 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 17: I would much rather have the game with the bye 993 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,840 Speaker 17: team getting you know, a game an arrow ahead, or 994 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 17: or one of the one of the big Indianapolis, one 995 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 17: of the big stadiums. I think the first round game 996 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 17: is too much of an advantage. 997 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 8: I think it's. 998 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 2: To that point, Stephen, you will have earned it, which 999 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 2: makes the regular season every bit I think as important. 1000 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 3: Before you you will. 1001 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 2: It's not a gift, you will have had to have 1002 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 2: earned it.

I agree with the guy that 1069 00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 15: said he spoke from the heart. 1070 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 4: You know, you know was now the time. 1071 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 15: I don't know who you know who really knows. 1072 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:52,600 Speaker 4: Right, but. 1073 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 2: Enough was in the middle of an interview. Go ahead 1074 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 2: and go ahead. What are your thoughts on the playoff, 1075 00:51:57,920 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 2: big fellow. 1076 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 13: Oh, playoffs? 1077 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 15: I think it's gonna overall be good. You know it's 1078 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 15: it's gonna have its wrinkles. People are gonna be upset 1079 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:14,319 Speaker 15: over who should have been five, who should have been four? 1080 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 9: Who should have gotten the home field. 1081 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:19,799 Speaker 15: I'm a Buckeyes fan. I would love to see people 1082 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:24,320 Speaker 15: have to go through the shoe. But I mean, I 1083 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 15: think that's gonna be a big issue with it. But overall, 1084 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 15: I think it's gonna make the sport more compelling instead 1085 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 15: of just a computer or whoever arbitrarily picking four people 1086 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 15: or four teams. 1087 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 2: Sorry, well, okay, you bring up a lot of good 1088 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 2: points and I appreciate you checking in tonight, Jason, and 1089 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 2: don't be a stranger. The seam there is we really 1090 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 2: don't know until this plays out. We see that first 1091 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 2: TV show. We know who's who's ranked where, who's got 1092 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,080 Speaker 2: the buys, who's got to go on the road, et cetera, 1093 00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 2: et cetera, and all the seedings, and then it's going 1094 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 2: to really start to take shape because people will have 1095 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 2: their opinions. Rob in Orlando, you're up next to the 1096 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,840 Speaker 2: Bernie Fratle Show. It's the midnight hour, Bernie. 1097 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 20: Good to have you on on a Friday night again. 1098 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 20: A couple of good topics here. Thanks you off on 1099 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 20: the on the two of situation. If you listen to 1100 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:19,319 Speaker 20: old totality of the interview was actually pretty solid at 1101 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,399 Speaker 20: the end of the day. Who know, a leader, either 1102 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 20: on the field or in business, has to find what 1103 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 20: motivates each individual person an employee. 1104 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 4: It just is the way it is. 1105 00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 20: And if you're not a good leader, if you don't, 1106 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 20: if that's the way Brian Floores was handling things, you know, 1107 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 20: with Tua, then he didn't figure out what makes him tick. 1108 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 2: Great point. It sounds that's a superb point. It sounds 1109 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 2: like he was essentially a one size fits all. And 1110 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 2: the irony here is he's a defensive guy. So defensive 1111 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:53,960 Speaker 2: guy's talking to quarterbacks. Eh, not so much, right, Rob No. 1112 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,800 Speaker 20: And I think that's probably along with the lawsuit against 1113 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 20: the NFL. One of the reasons why but we pigeonholed 1114 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 20: is as a coach or a position coach, you know, 1115 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 20: for years to come with regards to the NC double A. 1116 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:07,280 Speaker 20: I like the format. 1117 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:07,960 Speaker 8: You know. 1118 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 20: The only struggle I have with it is, you know, 1119 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 20: we could have really averted a lot of a lot 1120 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 20: of moving pieces here over the last few years. If 1121 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 20: Mark emmert a few years ago, it solidified, you know, 1122 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,680 Speaker 20: the deal that we needed to have here, and we 1123 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 20: could have kept the conferences in place because beautiful woul 1124 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:29,239 Speaker 20: this playoff. Look withd you know, five conference champions you know, 1125 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 20: and then you have seven at larges. So you got 1126 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 20: to win your conference championship, you get in at your 1127 00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 20: first five seeds, and then the other seven just fall 1128 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 20: into place naturally. 1129 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,880 Speaker 2: Two great points, very well in formed regarding Mark Emeric 1130 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: And when they write their history books, people are going 1131 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 2: to cry in their beer. That could have been avoided. Hey, 1132 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 2: don't be a stranger, Bob ab outstanding stuff. 1133 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:54,799 Speaker 3: Thank you.

Thanks for your service. 1195 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 2: I would say this that there have been conversations manned 1196 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 2: about that might they extend March Badness? Do they want 1197 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,960 Speaker 2: to extend it? And there are a lot more constant pros. 1198 00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 2: I don't think it's gonna affect it. I do think 1199 00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 2: there's a chance, you know how you have the playing 1200 00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 2: games On Tuesday, you're at sixty eight. I could see 1201 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,000 Speaker 2: it going to maybe seventy two with a couple more 1202 00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 2: playing games, But that's probably a conversation for a different day. 1203 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 2: I was as going to bring it up as a topic, 1204 00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 2: but I mean, they've expanded so many times now that 1205 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 2: I think we might have hit our sweet spot. But again, 1206 00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 2: conversation for a differ day, because there's always people on 1207 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,560 Speaker 2: the bubble. Kurt and so cal, Hey, Kurt, where you've been? 1208 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 3: Man? Where have you been? 1209 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 13: Kurt oh Burn? 1210 00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:26,960 Speaker 4: How are you doing fine? 1211 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:27,320 Speaker 9: Bern? 1212 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 13: I want to just real quickly give ten canned comparisons 1213 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 13: between bosses and leaders to find man please. Bosses drive players, 1214 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 13: leaders coach players. Boston depend on authority. Leaders depend on goodwill. 1215 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:58,400 Speaker 13: Bosses inspire fear. Leaders generate enthusiasm. Boss Is say I, 1216 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:06,080 Speaker 13: my and me, Leaders say we. Boss is blamed on breakdowns. 1217 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 13: Leader's fixed breakdowns. Bosses know how it's done. Leaders share 1218 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:21,520 Speaker 13: how it's done. Bosses use people, Leaders develop people. Bosses 1219 00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 13: take credit, leaders give credit. Boss's command. Leaders ask. Bosses 1220 00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 13: say go, and leaders say let's go. 1221 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 2: So I wrote a book, Kurt called the View from 1222 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 2: the Chief Seats and I talked about leadership, and my 1223 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 2: definition of leaderships always been simple. Leadership is influence. It's 1224 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 2: influence based on trust and respect that you've earned. I 1225 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 2: don't feel that it sounds to me like in that 1226 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 2: one on one with Tua, Brian Flores's leadership ability was 1227 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 2: not at a height there. So your thoughts on that, 1228 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:01,480 Speaker 2: and real quickly on the twelve team. 1229 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 13: Playoff, Kurt, the twelve team playoffs, I think it's going 1230 01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 13: to be a platform of attrition that's gonna come with 1231 01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:13,760 Speaker 13: it's going to come into play. That's a that's a 1232 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 13: lot of football and you're not playing. 1233 01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:19,760 Speaker 2: We hold that thought again, your calls are always thoughtful. 1234 01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 2: What you're basically saying is when you get to January, 1235 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 2: you're going to be some teams around their fifteen sixteenth game. 1236 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 2: And I've thought of that as well, Kurt, But it's 1237 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,680 Speaker 2: only going to be a couple of teams that that 1238 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 2: that get that far. 1239 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 3: You get my drift, yes, but look. 1240 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 13: At look at the teams that these teams are playing. Now, 1241 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 13: there's no patsies anymore. 1242 01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:43,360 Speaker 3: About damn time, about damn time. That's just my take. 1243 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 13: Ship that should make for great football. 1244 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 2: Kurt, do not be a stranger.

Top props for him doing that. 1490 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:01,680 Speaker 2: Do you think he might have done it because he 1491 01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:05,599 Speaker 2: still wants to be considered to be a head coach someday. Yes, 1492 01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:08,200 Speaker 2: fair enough, Berto, continue my man. 1493 01:12:09,280 --> 01:12:13,439 Speaker 24: And regarding the twelfteen playoffs, the jury is out, we 1494 01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:17,439 Speaker 24: don't know what's gonna happen. I mean, when we see 1495 01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:19,719 Speaker 24: blowouts or do we see parity? 1496 01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:22,679 Speaker 2: But we see we see blowouts already in the regular 1497 01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 2: in the regular tournament umberto will we see that now? 1498 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:29,160 Speaker 24: Now this is the thing with the NIEL and now 1499 01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:32,960 Speaker 24: with everybody trying to go through, huh, what percentage of 1500 01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:35,960 Speaker 24: players are gonna out of the storders are gonna play 1501 01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:38,800 Speaker 24: in the playoffs? That's gonna That's the thing that I 1502 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 24: want to see. Because these kids, they're asking them to 1503 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 24: play thirteen, fourteen, fifteen games. I don't know if their 1504 01:12:46,040 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 24: bodies are for that because they're too young. So we'll 1505 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,560 Speaker 24: see what the product, how the product comes out. This 1506 01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:54,360 Speaker 24: is the first year, so I'm gonna I'm gonna hold 1507 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:55,040 Speaker 24: my thoughts on that. 1508 01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, you're bringing up some eximent points.

The thing that jumps at me, I mean, 1510 01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:08,639 Speaker 2: the college football season, for all intents and purposes, used 1511 01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:10,360 Speaker 2: to always be done on New Year's Day, and it 1512 01:13:10,400 --> 01:13:13,720 Speaker 2: didn't start to Labor Day. Now it's essentially starting a 1513 01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 2: week before Labor's Day, Labor Day, and it can go 1514 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:20,840 Speaker 2: all the way to January twentieth. January twentieth, I think 1515 01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:24,320 Speaker 2: that's Inauguration Day too, and it'll be a Monday night game. Look, 1516 01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 2: it's gonna blow up. Okay, but what we don't know 1517 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 2: are what the law of intended consequences might be. 1518 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:33,000 Speaker 3: So good, good, good point.

He's already 1529 01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:05,680 Speaker 25: put up better numbers. Big Daniels already came in and 1530 01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:07,880 Speaker 25: showed like changed the atmosphere. 1531 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 16: I talked to you last. 1532 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:11,840 Speaker 25: Week about a guy named Gary b I'm going to 1533 01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:13,519 Speaker 25: talk to you about Simon Sinik this week. 1534 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:14,719 Speaker 8: He wrote a book called. 1535 01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 25: He's Leaders Eat Last mm hmm, and through that entire 1536 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:21,519 Speaker 25: book he talked about setting atmosphere for your people to 1537 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,559 Speaker 25: scribe in. And I think Brian Flora's just mid setting 1538 01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:28,040 Speaker 25: the right atmosphere, not thinking he's a bad coach, but 1539 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:29,360 Speaker 25: he didn't get the atmosphere right. 1540 01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:31,439 Speaker 8: And I think that fall that too, was say. 1541 01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 3: I think I think you characterized that pretty darn good. 1542 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:39,960 Speaker 2: Uh, because I I do know there are some people 1543 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 2: that took umbrage with to his remarks, but by and large, 1544 01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:44,719 Speaker 2: I think the majority were sort. 1545 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:45,360 Speaker 3: Of on his side. 1546 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:49,320 Speaker 2: And but but it raises a larger, a larger issue. 1547 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:51,439 Speaker 2: I mean, have you ever dealt with a bad boss 1548 01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:52,000 Speaker 2: like that? 1549 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:52,439 Speaker 3: Bryce? 1550 01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:55,639 Speaker 15: I've had about fair share. 1551 01:14:58,000 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 3: And did you did you? 1552 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 13: How did you? 1553 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:02,439 Speaker 3: How did you react? How did you deal with it? 1554 01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:06,040 Speaker 2: And when whatever whatever action you took, how you know, 1555 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:10,680 Speaker 2: how how was it met with by your boss? I've 1556 01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:12,360 Speaker 2: had people go off on I've seen people go off 1557 01:15:12,360 --> 01:15:14,599 Speaker 2: on bosses, and then the bosses back down. I'm trying 1558 01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:17,120 Speaker 2: to talk them out to quittin when all along they 1559 01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 2: were pushing them out the door and didn't even know it. 1560 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:19,840 Speaker 2: Continue you get the floor. 1561 01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:22,400 Speaker 4: Well, unfortunately, I couldn't do that. 1562 01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 25: I was in the military at one point. Couldn't do 1563 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:27,519 Speaker 25: it as a military And the second job that I 1564 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:29,720 Speaker 25: worked for was the state jobs. Again, you can't really 1565 01:15:29,760 --> 01:15:32,559 Speaker 25: do that. But I'm self employed now, so I guess 1566 01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,320 Speaker 25: all the bad bosses pushed me into self employment. 1567 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:38,679 Speaker 3: JT. 1568 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 2: Really good call, man. I appreciate you, and we do 1569 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,760 Speaker 2: this every Friday night. Let's get the crew in here. 1570 01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:48,200 Speaker 3: Bree. Your thoughts on the situation with Tua. 1571 01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:53,320 Speaker 22: Yeah, so I'm kind of I had like some really 1572 01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:55,680 Speaker 22: good thoughts about it, and then everybody's kind of kind 1573 01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:56,720 Speaker 22: of convincing me, like. 1574 01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:59,960 Speaker 26: Okay, well, you know, he was just being honest and everything. 1575 01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:03,120 Speaker 22: But initially, I think true character reveals itself in the end, 1576 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:05,360 Speaker 22: like Tua didn't really need to air him out like 1577 01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:08,800 Speaker 22: that if he already has an opportunity. But Ryan Floyd 1578 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 22: has already got an opportunity. He's already coaching on the Vikings. 1579 01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 22: These coaches get recycled all all the time. So if 1580 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 22: he ever gets an opportunity to be ahead of coach again, 1581 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 22: obviously maybe he'll do it differently. I just didn't think 1582 01:16:19,200 --> 01:16:21,519 Speaker 22: it was like the best way to handle that. And like, 1583 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,439 Speaker 22: like I think Bryce just said, like Tua has already 1584 01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:27,080 Speaker 22: like changed the whole narrative about how he is as 1585 01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 22: a quarterback. He's already thriving in a new system. Why 1586 01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:33,000 Speaker 22: do you have to bring up all that old everything old? 1587 01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:35,720 Speaker 22: Like some people just don't align. Not everyone can be 1588 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,519 Speaker 22: Sean Pagon and Drew Brees and be all Kumbayan best friends. 1589 01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:41,160 Speaker 22: But Bill Belichick and Tom Brady weren't best friends. And 1590 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,760 Speaker 22: look how much they got accomplished. 1591 01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 3: You know, so right, And I think I think two 1592 01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:46,839 Speaker 3: was wounded. 1593 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 24: I just do. 1594 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 2: I think he kept us buried for a long time. 1595 01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:53,599 Speaker 2: And I'm not defending him as much as I'm trying 1596 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:57,360 Speaker 2: to add some semblance. Yeah, the longer this, the more 1597 01:16:57,479 --> 01:17:01,560 Speaker 2: distance from what happened and time going on to it 1598 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:03,600 Speaker 2: looks a little worse because I think he could have 1599 01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:04,559 Speaker 2: actually handled better. 1600 01:17:04,840 --> 01:17:06,920 Speaker 3: Thoughts on the twelve team playoff, I'm. 1601 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 22: Really excited for it, and I just think along with 1602 01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 22: the realignment and everything. I think it's just going to 1603 01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:15,760 Speaker 22: be a really fun year for college football. So I 1604 01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 22: think it's going to just give that whole like that 1605 01:17:19,439 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 22: aura of like anything can happen. So I'm really excited. 1606 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:23,040 Speaker 22: I think it's going to be really fun. 1607 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:26,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. For me, I would say this. 1608 01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:30,040 Speaker 2: My biggest beef all along was from the made for 1609 01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:32,760 Speaker 2: TV four team Invitational tournament, which is all I ever 1610 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,800 Speaker 2: called it every year is you have five power conferences, 1611 01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,240 Speaker 2: so someone's getting left out every year even though you 1612 01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:42,360 Speaker 2: want a conference championship and all playoffs should be conference 1613 01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:44,880 Speaker 2: championship based in some form of fashion. 1614 01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:48,200 Speaker 3: This at least is gonna correct that. Chef. You're up next. 1615 01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:51,040 Speaker 3: What are your thoughts on TUA and the four team playoff? 1616 01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:51,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1617 01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 3: Well, twelve team playoff? 1618 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:55,559 Speaker 10: Yeah well TUA. I mean, I agree with Brian many 1619 01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:57,160 Speaker 10: of the callers where I mean, I do think he 1620 01:17:57,280 --> 01:17:59,880 Speaker 10: was being honest, but it's also sour grapes on his part. 1621 01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:02,519 Speaker 10: I don't see what good it does to rehash that 1622 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 10: now when uh, he's been without Brian Flores as his 1623 01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:07,280 Speaker 10: coach for a couple of years now. 1624 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:09,120 Speaker 3: So asked the question, though you got it, I mean, 1625 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 3: but you're right, he could have handled it better. 1626 01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:12,360 Speaker 10: He could have handled it better, And I just don't 1627 01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 10: think it does anyone any good and creates a needless 1628 01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:18,280 Speaker 10: distraction when Tua arguably has found the right coach for him, 1629 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 10: allowing him to succeed in that environment. So I think, 1630 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:24,479 Speaker 10: as it is right now, he's got a good situation. 1631 01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:27,400 Speaker 3: So I think he tried to make that parallel real quickly. 1632 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,679 Speaker 10: The twelve team playoff, you w this is blonging overdue. 1633 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 10: I mean, I consider the four team it wasn't a playoff. 1634 01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:36,640 Speaker 10: It was a joke because how do. 1635 01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:38,400 Speaker 3: You call it in tournament? 1636 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:40,799 Speaker 10: It's an invitational tournament. It was about the biggest names 1637 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,240 Speaker 10: who can draw the most eyeballs. It was not about 1638 01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,320 Speaker 10: the best teams on the field, as we saw with 1639 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 10: Florida State last year, despite their quarterback going down with injury, 1640 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 10: they were still undefeated against the superior strength schedule compared 1641 01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:57,599 Speaker 10: to Alabama, as I recall, So the twelve team playoff 1642 01:18:57,600 --> 01:18:59,640 Speaker 10: will allow all teams who are deserving to be in 1643 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:03,040 Speaker 10: to play in the playoffs, and we'll not exclude any 1644 01:19:03,160 --> 01:19:05,479 Speaker 10: truly deserving team. And that's something we've been wanting for 1645 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:07,560 Speaker 10: college football for a long time, and It's something that 1646 01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:10,320 Speaker 10: the fans truly deserve, the players deserve to be able 1647 01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:12,439 Speaker 10: to play for a championship, to side it on the 1648 01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 10: field and not by judges or a committee the way 1649 01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:17,479 Speaker 10: it is in gymnastics or figure skating. 1650 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:18,559 Speaker 3: Excellent. 1651 01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 2: I love that analogy there, and Mark, I don't want 1652 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 2: to cut you short, so the B block one o'clock. 1653 01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:27,280 Speaker 2: We'll get your thoughts on both those subjects. I want 1654 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 2: to give you ample time. Listen to two things that 1655 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 2: undeniably does. It doesn't leave out any conference champions all right, 1656 01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 2: you're gonna get a power group of five one in there, 1657 01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 2: and it's gonna be saded on the field. Now, do 1658 01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:41,439 Speaker 2: I think Florida State would have got hammered without their 1659 01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:44,840 Speaker 2: starting quarterback? Probably, but it was theoretical. We're never gonna know, 1660 01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:47,560 Speaker 2: are we. Now it's going to be sated on the 1661 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:51,120 Speaker 2: field instead of like a four team movie. Speaking of movies, 1662 01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:54,640 Speaker 2: you like movies, don't go anywhere. Our next segment is 1663 01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 2: for you.

And I mean any movie that has 1722 01:22:39,320 --> 01:22:41,400 Speaker 2: a six fingered man and a bunch of miracles and 1723 01:22:41,479 --> 01:22:43,439 Speaker 2: eels and it's kind of a MIDI it's kind of 1724 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:46,479 Speaker 2: had a medieval to it, Yeah, and I think that 1725 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 2: kind of drew people in because there was a weirdness about. 1726 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:52,880 Speaker 22: The movie, definitely, And so so that was my number three. 1727 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:56,439 Speaker 22: Then I went Warriors nineteen seventy nine and number two. 1728 01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:59,720 Speaker 3: Great movie, right, yes, yes, So I. 1729 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 22: Thought that was super fun, just kind of that battle 1730 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:05,200 Speaker 22: between those like the city gangs and just like that's 1731 01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:08,000 Speaker 22: just something that you just you can watch again over 1732 01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:09,519 Speaker 22: and over again, and I guess. 1733 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:12,280 Speaker 2: And great soundtrack too.

Finally, 1808 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:45,200 Speaker 2: this is one that I just for principal watched it 1809 01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:47,640 Speaker 2: at least once every two years. And of course it 1810 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:50,519 Speaker 2: was directed by Mike Judge, who created Beavis and butt Head, 1811 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,880 Speaker 2: starring Ron Livingston Jennifer Aniston. How much flair did you 1812 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:57,400 Speaker 2: wear today? Of course I'm talking about Office Space. Only 1813 01:26:57,520 --> 01:27:00,400 Speaker 2: made seven men at the box office, and my judge 1814 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:02,200 Speaker 2: was so cool as you thought they killed it and 1815 01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:04,599 Speaker 2: they said, you idiot, this is a flop in Hollywood. 1816 01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:07,599 Speaker 2: All of a sudden, Comedy Central started promoting. It went 1817 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:11,559 Speaker 2: out on VHS, and the rest is history. Office Space 1818 01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:14,599 Speaker 2: is very relatable. We've all worked for companies. How about 1819 01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:17,320 Speaker 2: poor Milton never got us cake burned the place down, 1820 01:27:17,880 --> 01:27:19,559 Speaker 2: you know, he got fired in payroll. 1821 01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:21,640 Speaker 3: But by the way, you got those TPS reports for me. 1822 01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 3: We can go on all night.

I mean, Samuel Jackson's performer. 1889 01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:43,519 Speaker 10: That's his iconic performance, isn't nice? 1890 01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:46,599 Speaker 2: How about the dance scene between Uma Thurman and John 1891 01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:50,200 Speaker 2: Coulta played with great Chuck Berry song go ahead? 1892 01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:52,760 Speaker 10: So yeah, I put that there and then number one. 1893 01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:55,240 Speaker 10: I was raised on mel Brooks.

Blazing Saddles is one of them. 1896 01:31:02,320 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 10: I could quote that movie beginning to end. Spaceballs is 1897 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:09,120 Speaker 10: one of my favorite. I'm a star Trek fans, so 1898 01:31:09,439 --> 01:31:12,760 Speaker 10: that movie really spoke to me. History of the World 1899 01:31:12,840 --> 01:31:16,040 Speaker 10: Part one, the producers, but really for me, Young Frankenstein 1900 01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:20,760 Speaker 10: is the king. One reason why is it was immortalized 1901 01:31:21,160 --> 01:31:24,400 Speaker 10: by Aerosmith because the way the story goes is that 1902 01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:26,200 Speaker 10: they had the guitar riff right, you know, the guitar 1903 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:28,800 Speaker 10: riff and walk this Way, but they didn't have any 1904 01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:31,040 Speaker 10: words to go to the song. So they took a 1905 01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:33,479 Speaker 10: break in the in recording right and went to the 1906 01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:36,560 Speaker 10: movie theater Young Frankenstein was playing. They get to the 1907 01:31:36,600 --> 01:31:38,880 Speaker 10: scene where I Gore says, walk this way with his 1908 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:40,639 Speaker 10: little cane, and then he hands it to Gene Walder 1909 01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:42,280 Speaker 10: and he walked down the stairs the same way with 1910 01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:45,240 Speaker 10: a little cane. That's where walk this Way came from. 1911 01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:45,720 Speaker 3: So that's why. 1912 01:31:47,320 --> 01:31:50,080 Speaker 10: So that's why I put it number one, Walk this 1913 01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:52,960 Speaker 10: Way inspired by Young Frankenstein. 1914 01:31:54,439 --> 01:31:58,320 Speaker 2: I can't imagine a better You guys just absolutely killed it. 1915 01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:01,479 Speaker 2: And I thought I was waiting because again you can't 1916 01:32:01,479 --> 01:32:03,000 Speaker 2: get to all of them. I thought, maybe this is 1917 01:32:03,120 --> 01:32:06,200 Speaker 2: final tap might make the list right for somebody, Maybe 1918 01:32:06,240 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 2: Reservoir Dogs. 1919 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:09,840 Speaker 26: Reservoir Dogs, I was gonna say, or I had to pick. 1920 01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:12,840 Speaker 10: A Tarantino movie as well.

Now there's the ones from 2012 01:36:07,920 --> 01:36:11,200 Speaker 7: the sixties, seventies and eighties and nineties. There's just the 2013 01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:14,720 Speaker 7: approach of coaches that yell and curse and coaches that 2014 01:36:14,880 --> 01:36:19,960 Speaker 7: don't yell and curse, curse and are more mild mannered 2015 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 7: and how they go about things. On the one hand, 2016 01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:27,479 Speaker 7: Tua didn't have to bring it up if somebody asked 2017 01:36:27,560 --> 01:36:30,439 Speaker 7: him a question. He didn't have to bring up dirty laundry. 2018 01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:32,240 Speaker 3: That's fair. I think that's a fair point. 2019 01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:35,599 Speaker 7: That's a clubhouse thing, and that's how he was treated 2020 01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:38,400 Speaker 7: in that situation. He didn't have to talk about it. 2021 01:36:38,439 --> 01:36:41,559 Speaker 7: It's like, you know, a guy talking about his wife 2022 01:36:41,680 --> 01:36:43,559 Speaker 7: or a wife talking about her husband when she's out 2023 01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:46,200 Speaker 7: with a girlfriends. You don't have to bring up stuff. 2024 01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:50,040 Speaker 7: You can find a way hopefully to just move along. 2025 01:36:50,280 --> 01:36:52,720 Speaker 7: You don't have to bring up your dirty laundry. And 2026 01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:55,880 Speaker 7: then there's coaches that you like, like we all know, 2027 01:36:56,400 --> 01:36:58,760 Speaker 7: they yelled and scream to get their point across, and 2028 01:36:58,800 --> 01:37:02,320 Speaker 7: then other ones don't yell. They find a way how 2029 01:37:02,360 --> 01:37:05,639 Speaker 7: to talk to people. And so that's just the overall 2030 01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:08,400 Speaker 7: thing talked about too, and how he's going about his 2031 01:37:08,680 --> 01:37:11,919 Speaker 7: life and how he goes about dealing with his bosses, 2032 01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:16,200 Speaker 7: with his coaches, and like we already said, everybody does 2033 01:37:16,240 --> 01:37:19,000 Speaker 7: it differently. Every player is different of how they're going 2034 01:37:19,080 --> 01:37:23,360 Speaker 7: to be reached. Current players, like one of the callers said, 2035 01:37:24,160 --> 01:37:27,200 Speaker 7: seem to be a little soft and they don't take 2036 01:37:27,439 --> 01:37:30,799 Speaker 7: to being yelled at. They don't that's not their mindset 2037 01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:33,160 Speaker 7: of how they want to be talked to and how 2038 01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:36,799 Speaker 7: they were, you know, talk to others. So that doesn't 2039 01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:40,760 Speaker 7: work with most of the current players. So that's just 2040 01:37:40,840 --> 01:37:41,960 Speaker 7: the overall thought, you. 2041 01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:47,200 Speaker 2: Know, retrospect, TUA got a little too chatty, didn't He 2042 01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:48,920 Speaker 2: didn't have to, could have said, you know, Brian and 2043 01:37:48,960 --> 01:37:50,720 Speaker 2: I had our times, but we've moved on, and I 2044 01:37:50,760 --> 01:37:53,240 Speaker 2: wish him it's not you know, and it's easy for 2045 01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:55,040 Speaker 2: me to do that here now and then right, I 2046 01:37:55,200 --> 01:38:00,200 Speaker 2: just feel I try to operate. Almost said a bad words, 2047 01:38:00,200 --> 01:38:01,920 Speaker 2: a darn about me, But what I was going to 2048 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,680 Speaker 2: say is, you know, if you scratch that itch, you're 2049 01:38:05,720 --> 01:38:07,760 Speaker 2: gonna there's gonna be a price to pay later and 2050 01:38:07,960 --> 01:38:09,840 Speaker 2: if you can't unring that belt once it comes out 2051 01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:12,200 Speaker 2: of your mound or real quickly out of the playoffs. 2052 01:38:13,120 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 7: So just to overall from you knowing everything about college football, 2053 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:20,760 Speaker 7: just to basically it's because they've they've changed all the 2054 01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:23,639 Speaker 7: conferences now, that's right, they've moved everything around. 2055 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:26,800 Speaker 2: Well, there are fifteen teams that have moved from one 2056 01:38:26,920 --> 01:38:29,920 Speaker 2: conference to another, that's part of it. But what they've 2057 01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:34,719 Speaker 2: done is expand the playoffs to a twelve team legitimate tournament. 2058 01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:37,600 Speaker 2: Now then that I think not everybody's brought into that. 2059 01:38:37,800 --> 01:38:39,439 Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying, and maybe you need to 2060 01:38:39,439 --> 01:38:41,120 Speaker 2: look at it more before you give your final answer. 2061 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,719 Speaker 7: No, that's fine because I guess if there's more football, 2062 01:38:44,800 --> 01:38:46,559 Speaker 7: that's going to make a lot of people happy because 2063 01:38:46,560 --> 01:38:49,000 Speaker 7: they want to see more games, and no question, and 2064 01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:52,320 Speaker 7: the overall thing about teams feeling like they got left 2065 01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:56,840 Speaker 7: out because there wasn't enough spaces for them. That temporarily 2066 01:38:57,040 --> 01:38:59,680 Speaker 7: might make somebody happy because now there's a space for them, 2067 01:38:59,760 --> 01:39:02,880 Speaker 7: but as we know, somebody's going to complain because they 2068 01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:05,160 Speaker 7: still didn't get in. They still didn't make the cut. 2069 01:39:05,280 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 2: So I like the way you just channeled your inner 2070 01:39:08,120 --> 01:39:10,280 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift. You got a blank space, all right? 2071 01:39:10,280 --> 01:39:12,680 Speaker 3: Your name? Oh what can I get away with that? 2072 01:39:13,320 --> 01:39:13,760 Speaker 3: Never mind? 2073 01:39:13,840 --> 01:39:16,400 Speaker 2: Continue, Mark, you got the last word. And I want 2074 01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:18,800 Speaker 2: to get to this deal here. But your points taken. 2075 01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:20,880 Speaker 7: It's just you know, if it's more games with people, 2076 01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:23,000 Speaker 7: that's great, and then somebody's going to complain with they 2077 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:24,560 Speaker 7: don't make the cut, and then they'll just you know, 2078 01:39:24,680 --> 01:39:26,519 Speaker 7: go all around again until they change it again. 2079 01:39:28,120 --> 01:39:32,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, this right, whether or not they change it again. 2080 01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:34,679 Speaker 2: But think about what you said, more football, more TV, 2081 01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 2: more money, more opportunity. 2082 01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:38,479 Speaker 3: Dude, we're all here for it. I think the. 2083 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:44,320 Speaker 2: Ratings are going to be very good, all right, if 2084 01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:46,439 Speaker 2: your name is Sean Keeler and you're writ for the 2085 01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:47,200 Speaker 2: Denver Post. 2086 01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:50,120 Speaker 3: You have two choices. 2087 01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:54,360 Speaker 2: You cannot go to Colorado practice anymore or games, or 2088 01:39:54,479 --> 01:39:57,559 Speaker 2: you cannot go to Colorado practice and not ask questions 2089 01:39:57,600 --> 01:40:00,800 Speaker 2: to Deon Sanders. Actually he's still he's still able to go. 2090 01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:03,400 Speaker 2: They didn't see block him out of there. But I 2091 01:40:03,479 --> 01:40:07,080 Speaker 2: will say this that this is something I don't recall 2092 01:40:07,080 --> 01:40:07,720 Speaker 2: I've ever seen. 2093 01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:11,479 Speaker 3: This is the quote. 2094 01:40:12,200 --> 01:40:15,920 Speaker 2: After a series of sustained personal attacks on the football 2095 01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:19,800 Speaker 2: program and specifically coach Prime, the cu athletic department in 2096 01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:22,639 Speaker 2: conjunction with the football program, I've decided not to take 2097 01:40:22,800 --> 01:40:27,479 Speaker 2: questions from Denver Post columnist Sean Keeler at football related events. 2098 01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:28,880 Speaker 3: End quote. 2099 01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:31,720 Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to having our guy Darren McKeon from 2100 01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:34,200 Speaker 2: Denver and Oscot Chad Anders and see what their thoughts are. 2101 01:40:35,080 --> 01:40:37,280 Speaker 2: This feels like it's as wrong as rain on your 2102 01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:40,439 Speaker 2: opening day. It just does not feel right to me, 2103 01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:43,920 Speaker 2: and I would say this. I think it's such a 2104 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:49,200 Speaker 2: bad precedent, and I know that if maybe some of 2105 01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:53,000 Speaker 2: this is unprofessional leegend. Lee Sanders has been called the 2106 01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:58,640 Speaker 2: false Prophet, the Deposition, Dion Planet Prime, the Bruce Lee 2107 01:40:58,720 --> 01:41:04,040 Speaker 2: of bs Dion kool Aid Circus, and Dion has been 2108 01:41:04,160 --> 01:41:08,200 Speaker 2: sensitive since Aminity got there, and I like Deon a lot, 2109 01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:11,560 Speaker 2: but this is really. 2110 01:41:12,439 --> 01:41:13,599 Speaker 3: Going the other way now. 2111 01:41:13,680 --> 01:41:17,160 Speaker 2: And if for whatever reason Colorado doesn't win more than 2112 01:41:17,280 --> 01:41:19,840 Speaker 2: seven or eight games this year, this could really go 2113 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:21,800 Speaker 2: south fast. And you've got a couple of big time 2114 01:41:21,840 --> 01:41:25,559 Speaker 2: players that's onunch your door, and of course Travis Hunter 2115 01:41:25,640 --> 01:41:26,880 Speaker 2: to the top players in the country. 2116 01:41:27,360 --> 01:41:28,360 Speaker 3: They have a tough matchup. 2117 01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:30,360 Speaker 2: They open up against North Dakota State, which would be 2118 01:41:30,360 --> 01:41:32,479 Speaker 2: a plucky team, a physical team. 2119 01:41:33,200 --> 01:41:36,360 Speaker 3: I do expect Colorado to win that game at home. 2120 01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:38,960 Speaker 2: They might not, but I do expect them to and 2121 01:41:39,040 --> 01:41:41,360 Speaker 2: I think it'll be It'll be a slobby knocker, It'll 2122 01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:43,800 Speaker 2: be a fist fight in a phone booth. But then 2123 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:46,280 Speaker 2: you got to go to Nebraska, and that is going 2124 01:41:46,360 --> 01:41:49,439 Speaker 2: to be, I believe, the primer for the season. And 2125 01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:53,840 Speaker 2: if Colorado loses it in Nebraska, I think that that 2126 01:41:53,920 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 2: could be the start of Domino's falling. And if they 2127 01:41:56,439 --> 01:41:58,000 Speaker 2: don't even make it to a bowl game this year, 2128 01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:03,879 Speaker 2: who knows what's going to happen. So apparently Colorado Athletics 2129 01:42:03,920 --> 01:42:07,479 Speaker 2: began barning Keeler from asking questions ten days ago after 2130 01:42:07,520 --> 01:42:09,479 Speaker 2: he wrote a colin that was very critical of Dion 2131 01:42:09,600 --> 01:42:12,800 Speaker 2: and his behavior at the Fall Sports Media Day. Hey 2132 01:42:12,880 --> 01:42:15,160 Speaker 2: this is Dion man. You know who'd you think you 2133 01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:19,040 Speaker 2: were getting? This story is continuing and we'll follow it 2134 01:42:19,120 --> 01:42:22,000 Speaker 2: as well as well as we will be following in 2135 01:42:22,120 --> 01:42:26,479 Speaker 2: Colorado football. Coming up Chris profess World of Soccer for first, 2136 01:42:26,479 --> 01:42:28,920 Speaker 2: we go back to the chef Kevin Wyer and. 2137 01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:30,960 Speaker 10: No wonder Colorado will only with four and a last 2138 01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:33,360 Speaker 10: year if that's what he's focusing on anyway. The big 2139 01:42:33,439 --> 01:42:36,720 Speaker 10: story in college athletics though today Yukon in the Big 2140 01:42:36,800 --> 01:42:40,679 Speaker 10: Twelve in talks about the Huskies joining the Big Twelve 2141 01:42:40,800 --> 01:42:44,559 Speaker 10: in all sports, including football. That's a report by both 2142 01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:48,240 Speaker 10: ESPN and The Athletic earlier today. The reports did say 2143 01:42:48,280 --> 01:42:52,240 Speaker 10: that no vote has occurred for a potential Huskies membership, 2144 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:55,919 Speaker 10: nor is one close to happening. There's also been pushback 2145 01:42:55,960 --> 01:42:58,360 Speaker 10: among several members of the Big Twelve that would need 2146 01:42:58,400 --> 01:43:01,920 Speaker 10: to be overcome. The primary one is Yukon's investment in 2147 01:43:02,240 --> 01:43:04,840 Speaker 10: to their football program. So the Huskies plan would be 2148 01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:07,360 Speaker 10: to join the conference in twenty thirty one to give 2149 01:43:07,400 --> 01:43:10,479 Speaker 10: them the time to set up the foundation. The nil 2150 01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:13,280 Speaker 10: was specifically mentioned in the reports to get them the 2151 01:43:13,400 --> 01:43:16,080 Speaker 10: funding and competitive level they need to be at to 2152 01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:18,679 Speaker 10: be on par with their Big twelve counterparts. So against 2153 01:43:18,680 --> 01:43:21,040 Speaker 10: twenty thirty one is when they're aiming at to join 2154 01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:25,080 Speaker 10: the conference, if indeed that is what both sides decide 2155 01:43:25,320 --> 01:43:30,960 Speaker 10: to do. In Major League Baseball, showtime in Hollywood Friday Night. 2156 01:43:31,040 --> 01:43:31,439 Speaker 3: Here we go. 2157 01:43:31,680 --> 01:43:36,800 Speaker 11: Posha too old tony high fly ball right field, hit 2158 01:43:36,960 --> 01:43:39,320 Speaker 11: pretty deep on the track series at. 2159 01:43:39,280 --> 01:43:40,040 Speaker 9: The low. 2160 01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:43,840 Speaker 3: God. 2161 01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:51,840 Speaker 10: Oh, that was Stephen Nelson on FSR affiliate KLAC and 2162 01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:55,880 Speaker 10: the Dodgers Radio Network Showy Otani a grand salami to 2163 01:43:55,960 --> 01:43:57,720 Speaker 10: help lift the Dodgers over the race seven to three 2164 01:43:57,880 --> 01:44:01,160 Speaker 10: for Otani, his fortieth home run the season. He also 2165 01:44:01,240 --> 01:44:04,320 Speaker 10: has forty steals so far this year, so a forty 2166 01:44:04,360 --> 01:44:07,840 Speaker 10: forty season. He's the fastest player in history to reach 2167 01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:11,040 Speaker 10: that mark one hundred and twenty six games. Alfonso Siriano 2168 01:44:11,080 --> 01:44:13,599 Speaker 10: when two thousand and six was the previous fastest player. 2169 01:44:13,640 --> 01:44:15,040 Speaker 10: He did it in one hundred and forty seven, So 2170 01:44:15,160 --> 01:44:19,920 Speaker 10: show hey, breaking that record by twenty one games. He's 2171 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:22,320 Speaker 10: also the first Dodger to accomplish that feet in that 2172 01:44:22,680 --> 01:44:27,320 Speaker 10: franchise's long and storied history. Elsewhere in the National League West, 2173 01:44:27,760 --> 01:44:30,080 Speaker 10: the Padres do keep pace. They shout out the Mets 2174 01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:32,360 Speaker 10: seven to nothing. The Diamondbacks do the same a blowt 2175 01:44:32,400 --> 01:44:34,720 Speaker 10: win against the Red Sox twelve to two. LA's lead 2176 01:44:34,800 --> 01:44:38,080 Speaker 10: in that division is now four games over Arizona, four 2177 01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:41,519 Speaker 10: and a half up on the Padres. The Al Central 2178 01:44:41,640 --> 01:44:44,559 Speaker 10: is super tight right now. Guardians lose to the Rangers 2179 01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:47,519 Speaker 10: five to three, Royals do beat the Phillies seven to four, 2180 01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:51,000 Speaker 10: and the Twins unable to take advantage of the Guardians loss, 2181 01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:52,640 Speaker 10: they do lose to the Cardinals six to one. So 2182 01:44:53,400 --> 01:44:56,400 Speaker 10: the lead for Cleveland won game over Kansas City, two 2183 01:44:56,560 --> 01:44:59,840 Speaker 10: games on Minnesota, and the Royals also move up to 2184 01:45:00,120 --> 01:45:04,120 Speaker 10: the second spot in that American League Wild Card. 2185 01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:06,960 Speaker 7: Back to you, Bernie, all right. 2186 01:45:06,920 --> 01:45:09,240 Speaker 2: Chef, good job, and I'm kicking myself. We're gonna have 2187 01:45:09,280 --> 01:45:11,400 Speaker 2: to talk about this movie in a future show. I 2188 01:45:11,479 --> 01:45:14,479 Speaker 2: can't believe we left out Little Giants, which is just 2189 01:45:14,640 --> 01:45:15,360 Speaker 2: epically good. 2190 01:45:16,040 --> 01:45:18,479 Speaker 3: The annexation of Puerto Rico. You better not say nothing 2191 01:45:18,479 --> 01:45:18,840 Speaker 3: about my. 2192 01:45:18,880 --> 01:45:22,960 Speaker 2: Mama, all the cameo appearances Emmitt Smith and Tim Brown, 2193 01:45:22,960 --> 01:45:27,200 Speaker 2: blah blah blah, and of course Rick Moris. Just look 2194 01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:29,240 Speaker 2: at that guy makes me laugh at O'Neil of course, 2195 01:45:29,840 --> 01:45:33,559 Speaker 2: Al Bundy. All right, my bad, I got off topic 2196 01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:37,080 Speaker 2: there as I want to do. All right, plenty of 2197 01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:40,120 Speaker 2: news and by the way, where have you gone? Messi 2198 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:41,920 Speaker 2: America turns its lonely lines to you. 2199 01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:45,160 Speaker 3: Well, maybe Chris Profestor has the answers. In Chris Profest's 2200 01:45:45,200 --> 01:45:45,959 Speaker 3: World of Soccer. 2201 01:45:47,200 --> 01:46:03,240 Speaker 5: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes the international drama. It's 2202 01:46:03,320 --> 01:46:06,479 Speaker 5: all here in this report from the World of soccer. 2203 01:46:06,800 --> 01:46:09,920 Speaker 27: Four European leagues all rejoined play last week Vernie and 2204 01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:16,040 Speaker 27: this week Bundesliga got underway. On Friday, defending champions Bayer 2205 01:46:16,120 --> 01:46:20,680 Speaker 27: Leferkusen scored a thrilling three to two victory over Borussia Monchiglabach, 2206 01:46:21,080 --> 01:46:24,800 Speaker 27: and the winning goal came in the one hundred and 2207 01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:30,040 Speaker 27: eleventh minute, in the dying seconds of stoppage times as 2208 01:46:30,120 --> 01:46:33,599 Speaker 27: Leverkusen looks to defend a historic title that saw them 2209 01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:38,519 Speaker 27: running away with the with the Bundesliga last year. If 2210 01:46:38,560 --> 01:46:40,600 Speaker 27: you recall last year, they were on something of a 2211 01:46:41,040 --> 01:46:43,880 Speaker 27: lossless streak. They had refused to post a lost and 2212 01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:47,840 Speaker 27: was picking up points for quite a while now it's 2213 01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:48,439 Speaker 27: a very good thing. 2214 01:46:48,520 --> 01:46:49,680 Speaker 7: They'll be keeping the lead on. 2215 01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:52,160 Speaker 27: Florian Wurtz as long as they have him, who scored 2216 01:46:52,200 --> 01:46:55,080 Speaker 27: two goals, including that winning goal we just mentioned, and 2217 01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:58,600 Speaker 27: it gives new life into Bundesliga, once one of the 2218 01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:03,800 Speaker 27: most excited leagues, especially in fan culture in Europe, and 2219 01:47:03,920 --> 01:47:07,400 Speaker 27: yet I feel has really diminished itself by basically being 2220 01:47:07,600 --> 01:47:11,200 Speaker 27: Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich for over 2221 01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:13,840 Speaker 27: a decade and croaching into a decade and a half 2222 01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:18,040 Speaker 27: in some places. The more teams are competitive in a league, 2223 01:47:18,200 --> 01:47:20,880 Speaker 27: the better it is. Bayer Leverkusen coming out of the 2224 01:47:20,920 --> 01:47:25,080 Speaker 27: gate strong, you know, is a great sign. But I 2225 01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:27,080 Speaker 27: hope we're also going to see stuff this year out 2226 01:47:27,080 --> 01:47:30,760 Speaker 27: of RB Leipsig, out of Varusia dortmun out of Stuttgart, 2227 01:47:31,160 --> 01:47:34,360 Speaker 27: and yes, out of Bayern Munich as well. The old 2228 01:47:34,479 --> 01:47:36,720 Speaker 27: Kings cannot fade away, but I would like to see 2229 01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:40,000 Speaker 27: a lot more competition than rather than even in the 2230 01:47:40,080 --> 01:47:42,800 Speaker 27: year that bayer Leverkusen won. Last year they ran away 2231 01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:45,760 Speaker 27: with it to the tune of a seventeen point lead 2232 01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:49,760 Speaker 27: over over the second place Varussia dortmun It's hard to 2233 01:47:49,920 --> 01:47:53,320 Speaker 27: ask for things to be competitive in domestics league soccer, 2234 01:47:53,680 --> 01:47:55,519 Speaker 27: but the more they are, the closer they are all 2235 01:47:55,600 --> 01:47:58,400 Speaker 27: to being competitive all the time, the better off the 2236 01:47:58,520 --> 01:48:02,120 Speaker 27: sport is. Speaking of competitive, the Premier League season in 2237 01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:06,000 Speaker 27: England is starting to take shape, a lot of teams 2238 01:48:06,040 --> 01:48:07,840 Speaker 27: with a lot of hope out here. At some point 2239 01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:10,400 Speaker 27: I might talk about Brighton and Hove Albion, who has 2240 01:48:10,439 --> 01:48:12,760 Speaker 27: been one of these teams who's always been knocking on 2241 01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:14,960 Speaker 27: the door or even asked in Villa. But I want 2242 01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:17,240 Speaker 27: to turn my attention to a team who we've seen 2243 01:48:17,280 --> 01:48:20,519 Speaker 27: at the top and yet questions remain to see what 2244 01:48:20,640 --> 01:48:24,200 Speaker 27: their new future looks like, and that is Liverpool. We 2245 01:48:24,320 --> 01:48:27,400 Speaker 27: spoke at length last season about the departure of their 2246 01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:32,000 Speaker 27: longtime manager Jurgen Klop, not for any dismissal or failure 2247 01:48:32,120 --> 01:48:35,880 Speaker 27: to produce, but rather a massive burnout from the German 2248 01:48:35,960 --> 01:48:40,120 Speaker 27: wonder kin who had brought Liverpool several to a Champions 2249 01:48:40,200 --> 01:48:43,280 Speaker 27: League title, Premier League titles, and had kept the club 2250 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:46,800 Speaker 27: at the top among the Big six, and it actually 2251 01:48:46,800 --> 01:48:49,360 Speaker 27: paid dividends in an era that is increasingly becoming more 2252 01:48:49,400 --> 01:48:52,840 Speaker 27: and more dominated by Manchester City. However, a lot of 2253 01:48:52,960 --> 01:48:55,840 Speaker 27: questions surround Liverpool. I don't expect them to see them 2254 01:48:55,880 --> 01:48:59,680 Speaker 27: fade off entirely. They started the Premier League strong to 2255 01:49:00,479 --> 01:49:04,000 Speaker 27: over ipswich Town, a newly promoted side. They'll be taking 2256 01:49:04,080 --> 01:49:07,360 Speaker 27: on Brentford here on Sunday in one of the big 2257 01:49:07,479 --> 01:49:11,640 Speaker 27: games eleven thirty am Eastern Time. Brentford getting off to 2258 01:49:11,760 --> 01:49:15,280 Speaker 27: a one win start, but not exactly the world beaters. 2259 01:49:15,560 --> 01:49:19,360 Speaker 27: But either way, Liverpool, now with its new manager arn Slott, 2260 01:49:19,439 --> 01:49:23,040 Speaker 27: has a lot to figure out. Mohammed Sala, their superstar, 2261 01:49:23,479 --> 01:49:29,200 Speaker 27: a scoring phenom in the Premier League, has bandied around 2262 01:49:29,200 --> 01:49:32,400 Speaker 27: with the idea of transferring out. You know, we've seen 2263 01:49:32,439 --> 01:49:34,840 Speaker 27: his name come up during the transfer window a lot, 2264 01:49:34,920 --> 01:49:38,760 Speaker 27: and yet he remains for the time being at Liverpool. 2265 01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:42,560 Speaker 27: It's another year that started with Mohammed Sala scoring a 2266 01:49:42,640 --> 01:49:44,880 Speaker 27: goal in the first game of the season, something he's 2267 01:49:44,920 --> 01:49:47,680 Speaker 27: done nearly every year except for I believe twenty seventeen 2268 01:49:48,160 --> 01:49:51,480 Speaker 27: that he's been with the club, and he is something 2269 01:49:51,560 --> 01:49:54,679 Speaker 27: of a key figure to the club. So is Darwin 2270 01:49:54,760 --> 01:49:58,760 Speaker 27: Nunez and Luis Diaz and plenty of players who just 2271 01:49:58,960 --> 01:50:01,840 Speaker 27: really need to step up and send Liverpool over the 2272 01:50:01,880 --> 01:50:05,040 Speaker 27: top because this is a very tough year Arsenal has 2273 01:50:05,080 --> 01:50:08,519 Speaker 27: shown there are no such out Manchester City have a 2274 01:50:08,560 --> 01:50:11,479 Speaker 27: guy named Earling Holland he already scored last week, Just 2275 01:50:11,560 --> 01:50:14,439 Speaker 27: just letting you know he's already back and scoring. But 2276 01:50:14,560 --> 01:50:16,200 Speaker 27: what are we to do with Liverpool? What are we 2277 01:50:16,280 --> 01:50:19,040 Speaker 27: to do with the men up at Anfield? They haven't 2278 01:50:19,080 --> 01:50:23,520 Speaker 27: really been active signing anyone here in this window. Arnslatt 2279 01:50:23,640 --> 01:50:28,439 Speaker 27: does look ready for the job to fill Jurgen Klop's shoes, 2280 01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:32,280 Speaker 27: and yet they're inactivity at the summer window. Kind of 2281 01:50:32,400 --> 01:50:34,439 Speaker 27: leaves a lot of questions to be asked. This might 2282 01:50:34,560 --> 01:50:38,519 Speaker 27: be the swan song of Liverpool, not just Mohammed Sala 2283 01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:40,479 Speaker 27: in the final year of his contract, but we're also 2284 01:50:40,560 --> 01:50:44,840 Speaker 27: looking at contracts that are now done with after this year, 2285 01:50:44,880 --> 01:50:49,120 Speaker 27: with Virgil Venjique, with Trent alex Xander Arnold final years. 2286 01:50:49,160 --> 01:50:52,160 Speaker 27: There deals no new deals seemingly on the horizon for 2287 01:50:52,360 --> 01:50:55,960 Speaker 27: the time being, which means all signs really point to 2288 01:50:56,160 --> 01:50:58,439 Speaker 27: this might be if there are no new deals at 2289 01:50:58,439 --> 01:51:03,640 Speaker 27: any point, a final run for what has been Liverpool's 2290 01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:08,599 Speaker 27: golden age of the modern times. However, I still expect 2291 01:51:08,640 --> 01:51:11,200 Speaker 27: them to make Champions League at the very least, but 2292 01:51:11,720 --> 01:51:13,479 Speaker 27: just as they were kind of making that kind of 2293 01:51:13,560 --> 01:51:17,040 Speaker 27: mid season push for the Premier League title. I think 2294 01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:19,720 Speaker 27: I'd like to see them win the domestic league's and 2295 01:51:19,760 --> 01:51:23,240 Speaker 27: I'm sure they would like to win the Premiership as well, 2296 01:51:23,720 --> 01:51:27,320 Speaker 27: especially since it remains a very presigious title to them, 2297 01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:31,240 Speaker 27: to Liverpool's fans and everything else. And you know, Bernie, 2298 01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:33,439 Speaker 27: in the dying days the summer which should have been 2299 01:51:33,600 --> 01:51:36,680 Speaker 27: MLS's time, we still look back to and look to 2300 01:51:36,840 --> 01:51:39,679 Speaker 27: the MLS because those playoffs are going to be fast 2301 01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:43,280 Speaker 27: approaching coming down the pike here in the fall. And 2302 01:51:43,360 --> 01:51:46,160 Speaker 27: I guess the question is for Lionel Messi, who has 2303 01:51:46,320 --> 01:51:50,400 Speaker 27: been out for quite some time since Copa America, when 2304 01:51:50,439 --> 01:51:53,240 Speaker 27: will we see him back on the pitch for Inter Miami. 2305 01:51:53,680 --> 01:51:57,280 Speaker 27: And now Inter Miami's head coach TODDA. Martine did confirm 2306 01:51:57,360 --> 01:51:59,240 Speaker 27: that Messi will be ready to join the team for 2307 01:51:59,320 --> 01:52:02,839 Speaker 27: training soon. He's recovering from a ligament injury he suffered 2308 01:52:02,880 --> 01:52:06,080 Speaker 27: during the Copa America finals. And this kind of mirrors 2309 01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:09,000 Speaker 27: some of what we were talking about last week about 2310 01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:12,920 Speaker 27: Manchester United and their own concern among their fans and 2311 01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:16,280 Speaker 27: among commentariat about one of their own stars playing in 2312 01:52:16,560 --> 01:52:19,320 Speaker 27: euro Championship, even though he hadn't really been playing healthy 2313 01:52:19,360 --> 01:52:22,240 Speaker 27: for the club since February, but it is a question 2314 01:52:22,320 --> 01:52:25,040 Speaker 27: of Leonel Messi has staked a lot on his image 2315 01:52:25,120 --> 01:52:27,000 Speaker 27: and the end the MLS has staked a lot on 2316 01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:32,200 Speaker 27: his image, bolstering their league in America that Leonel Messi play. 2317 01:52:32,439 --> 01:52:34,360 Speaker 27: And for the second year there's been quite a bit 2318 01:52:34,400 --> 01:52:37,360 Speaker 27: of MLS track here that has not had Lionel Messi 2319 01:52:37,479 --> 01:52:40,320 Speaker 27: featured in it, be it because of injury or because 2320 01:52:40,520 --> 01:52:44,680 Speaker 27: of the twenty twenty four Copa America and Argentina taking precedence, 2321 01:52:44,920 --> 01:52:46,719 Speaker 27: And to be honest, if you are a fan of MLS, 2322 01:52:46,880 --> 01:52:50,320 Speaker 27: even he has kind of slightly been overshadowed. For those 2323 01:52:50,360 --> 01:52:53,400 Speaker 27: who really care about MLS, we're probably more looking towards 2324 01:52:53,479 --> 01:52:56,280 Speaker 27: something like Columbus and LAFC in a rematch of the 2325 01:52:56,400 --> 01:52:59,240 Speaker 27: MLS Cup happening in the League's Cup Final, which will 2326 01:52:59,280 --> 01:53:03,799 Speaker 27: happen here on Sunday, and it'll be a very thrilling matchup. 2327 01:53:03,960 --> 01:53:06,280 Speaker 27: And if you're someone though who is just kind of 2328 01:53:06,520 --> 01:53:09,200 Speaker 27: casually curious and you're coming in for Lionel Messi, then 2329 01:53:09,520 --> 01:53:12,479 Speaker 27: that really doesn't bring anything to you, and Leonelle's Messi's 2330 01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:15,560 Speaker 27: absence doesn't really bring anything in MLS to you, what 2331 01:53:15,760 --> 01:53:17,960 Speaker 27: interest do you have if he's not out there on 2332 01:53:18,040 --> 01:53:20,519 Speaker 27: the pitch. It's become the catch twenty two that MLS 2333 01:53:20,600 --> 01:53:23,639 Speaker 27: has found itself mired in. They've made a huge gambler 2334 01:53:23,640 --> 01:53:25,559 Speaker 27: and selling a lot of their product and a lot 2335 01:53:25,600 --> 01:53:29,040 Speaker 27: of their matches and Apple TV plus subscriptions out to 2336 01:53:29,640 --> 01:53:32,719 Speaker 27: people who came in to see Lionel Messi, and Leonel 2337 01:53:32,800 --> 01:53:34,880 Speaker 27: Messi hasn't really been out there. This is one of 2338 01:53:34,920 --> 01:53:38,439 Speaker 27: the dangers of putting so much of your product on 2339 01:53:38,520 --> 01:53:42,880 Speaker 27: the shoulders of one star instead of growing out a vast, 2340 01:53:43,479 --> 01:53:46,960 Speaker 27: healthy ecosystem. The good news is, unlike last year, that 2341 01:53:47,080 --> 01:53:50,479 Speaker 27: Inter Miami will definitely be in the MLS Cup playoffs, 2342 01:53:50,920 --> 01:53:54,240 Speaker 27: barring some sort of cataclysmic collapse down the stretch here 2343 01:53:54,280 --> 01:53:57,479 Speaker 27: in September, as they stand atop of the Eastern Conference 2344 01:53:57,680 --> 01:54:00,320 Speaker 27: at fifty three points going into the weekend and with 2345 01:54:00,520 --> 01:54:04,839 Speaker 27: FC Cincinnati trailing behind them and Columbus Crew the defending 2346 01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:08,639 Speaker 27: champions in third place in the East, and I suppose 2347 01:54:08,720 --> 01:54:10,800 Speaker 27: then only then will we really get to see if 2348 01:54:10,840 --> 01:54:14,120 Speaker 27: the Messi experiment does start to pay off, if playoff 2349 01:54:14,240 --> 01:54:17,479 Speaker 27: soccer in America with Lionel Messi is enough to get 2350 01:54:17,560 --> 01:54:20,679 Speaker 27: people to come over and watch soccer in the midst 2351 01:54:20,920 --> 01:54:22,519 Speaker 27: of the American football season. 2352 01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:24,639 Speaker 7: That's it for us. Bernie will see you next time 2353 01:54:24,800 --> 01:54:25,719 Speaker 7: in the world of soccer. 2354 01:54:26,040 --> 01:54:27,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, Chris and Mohammed opinion. 2355 01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:30,080 Speaker 2: The Messi experiment so already where people are starstruck in 2356 01:54:30,160 --> 01:54:30,639 Speaker 2: this country. 2357 01:54:31,360 --> 01:54:34,800 Speaker 3: Just my thoughts. Derek Carr hmm. 2358 01:54:35,280 --> 01:54:38,480 Speaker 2: Somebody I respect gave a Derek Carr stat last week 2359 01:54:38,560 --> 01:54:41,720 Speaker 2: that I thought was asinine and misleading, and I kind 2360 01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:43,440 Speaker 2: of liken it to a Yogi Berra story. 2361 01:54:43,480 --> 01:54:45,120 Speaker 3: I'll tell you both.

I'll get to you in a 2392 01:56:09,840 --> 01:56:13,839 Speaker 2: minute because what was said earlier this week and regarding 2393 01:56:13,880 --> 01:56:16,520 Speaker 2: a stat which to me is about the most superfluous 2394 01:56:16,560 --> 01:56:19,000 Speaker 2: stat you could ever have. And I'll explain why in 2395 01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:20,880 Speaker 2: a minute. In fact, I would call it a Yogi 2396 01:56:21,000 --> 01:56:23,400 Speaker 2: bear astat. You know what a Yogi bearstat is? True story, 2397 01:56:24,440 --> 01:56:27,640 Speaker 2: Yogi one day against the Boston Red Sox went four 2398 01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:31,080 Speaker 2: for four, and when you woke up the next morning 2399 01:56:31,160 --> 01:56:34,000 Speaker 2: and read the sports section of the New York Times, 2400 01:56:34,600 --> 01:56:37,960 Speaker 2: the box score said he went three for four. Yogi 2401 01:56:38,120 --> 01:56:41,280 Speaker 2: was livid. He called the sports editor of the newspaper 2402 01:56:41,320 --> 01:56:44,600 Speaker 2: and said, were you doing man? Yesterday against the Red Sox, 2403 01:56:44,720 --> 01:56:49,520 Speaker 2: I went four for four. The editor said, relax, Yogi, 2404 01:56:50,120 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 2: it was a typographical error. 2405 01:56:52,640 --> 01:56:53,880 Speaker 3: He said, what do you mean? It was a clean 2406 01:56:53,960 --> 01:56:59,320 Speaker 3: sigle up the middle? Derek Carr? This week? It was 2407 01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:01,720 Speaker 3: And I've heard two or three people try to tell 2408 01:57:01,840 --> 01:57:02,000 Speaker 3: me this. 2409 01:57:02,400 --> 01:57:05,640 Speaker 2: Well, I guess it's one of those meaningless stats, like 2410 01:57:05,760 --> 01:57:08,600 Speaker 2: the guy who you know, almost drowned on the river 2411 01:57:08,680 --> 01:57:11,640 Speaker 2: with an average up to three feet. Derek Carr has 2412 01:57:12,040 --> 01:57:15,800 Speaker 2: thirty fourth quarter comebacks. 2413 01:57:15,400 --> 01:57:18,360 Speaker 3: In his career. I think they went on to say, 2414 01:57:18,400 --> 01:57:20,680 Speaker 3: what the most of anybody since. 2415 01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:21,960 Speaker 13: What? 2416 01:57:22,280 --> 01:57:24,800 Speaker 3: Whenever? Since twenty sixteen. I guess that's when he entered 2417 01:57:24,800 --> 01:57:26,760 Speaker 3: the league, or thereabouts thereabouts. 2418 01:57:28,280 --> 01:57:30,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that in fifty cents to get you a cup 2419 01:57:30,080 --> 01:57:32,840 Speaker 2: of coffee at burger chef against two and what and 2420 01:57:33,000 --> 01:57:35,720 Speaker 2: of what meaning and significance did they have? Do you 2421 01:57:35,840 --> 01:57:40,920 Speaker 2: not know that Derek Carr in his career well with 2422 01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:45,160 Speaker 2: the Raiders, he was sixty three and seventy nine, never 2423 01:57:45,240 --> 01:57:48,280 Speaker 2: won a playoff game, and saved probably some of his 2424 01:57:48,400 --> 01:57:50,120 Speaker 2: worst performances. 2425 01:57:50,400 --> 01:57:53,880 Speaker 3: For the playoffs. Those are just the facts, man, Those 2426 01:57:53,920 --> 01:57:56,520 Speaker 3: are just the facts. And the truth of the matter is. 2427 01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:01,200 Speaker 2: Going in New Orleans wasn't exactly the panacea that they 2428 01:58:01,280 --> 01:58:04,520 Speaker 2: thought it would be. I think, frankly, New Orleans fans 2429 01:58:04,560 --> 01:58:06,680 Speaker 2: are already gets sick of getting sick of Derek Carr. 2430 01:58:07,320 --> 01:58:09,760 Speaker 2: And they're not even in a week one yet eighty 2431 01:58:09,800 --> 01:58:14,600 Speaker 2: seven as a starter. And you know, even I'm hearing 2432 01:58:14,640 --> 01:58:18,120 Speaker 2: even in practice this last week, second play of a scrimmage, 2433 01:58:18,680 --> 01:58:22,680 Speaker 2: Derek Carr overthrew Chris Olave and you overthrow. Fans started 2434 01:58:22,680 --> 01:58:26,680 Speaker 2: booing him at practice. At practice, one of the Saints 2435 01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:28,520 Speaker 2: beat reporters said, well, the fans are ready for the 2436 01:58:28,560 --> 01:58:29,480 Speaker 2: regular season now. 2437 01:58:29,960 --> 01:58:32,400 Speaker 3: He can't do that, Derek Carr. 2438 01:58:32,880 --> 01:58:36,320 Speaker 2: You know, and unless you saw him play up close 2439 01:58:36,400 --> 01:58:40,040 Speaker 2: and personal a lot, you can't truly appreciate how underwhelming 2440 01:58:40,080 --> 01:58:40,400 Speaker 2: you would be. 2441 01:58:40,600 --> 01:58:41,360 Speaker 3: Is he a good athlete. 2442 01:58:41,440 --> 01:58:41,600 Speaker 13: Yeah. 2443 01:58:41,720 --> 01:58:44,720 Speaker 3: Is he a good person, yeah? Has he made some 2444 01:58:44,840 --> 01:58:46,360 Speaker 3: big time throws? Yeah? 2445 01:58:46,400 --> 01:58:49,560 Speaker 2: When it doesn't matter, Derek Carr is pretty good. Except 2446 01:58:49,600 --> 01:58:52,600 Speaker 2: if you're a Saints fan, you're still channeling, you know, 2447 01:58:52,960 --> 01:58:56,120 Speaker 2: in twenty ten when Breeze and the Sads beat the 2448 01:58:56,200 --> 01:58:58,720 Speaker 2: Colts and they're not walking through that door. Neither Breeze 2449 01:58:58,800 --> 01:59:00,960 Speaker 2: is not walking through that door either of Sean Paydon. 2450 01:59:01,360 --> 01:59:04,600 Speaker 2: You got Dennis Allen, who's no great shakes, and you 2451 01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:08,840 Speaker 2: got Derek Carr. And one of the reasons you hear 2452 01:59:08,960 --> 01:59:12,600 Speaker 2: this the timber in my voice about Derek Carr is 2453 01:59:12,640 --> 01:59:15,720 Speaker 2: I wasn't particularly enthralled with how he left town. 2454 01:59:15,840 --> 01:59:17,680 Speaker 3: But one of the only real good decisions that Josh 2455 01:59:17,800 --> 01:59:18,720 Speaker 3: McDaniel's ever made. 2456 01:59:18,720 --> 01:59:21,760 Speaker 2: Another another d bag who was in way over his head, 2457 01:59:21,760 --> 01:59:24,920 Speaker 2: another JABRONI he didn't like Derek Carr, couldn't run his offense. 2458 01:59:25,480 --> 01:59:26,960 Speaker 3: And then when Derek carry. 2459 01:59:26,640 --> 01:59:27,920 Speaker 2: You know, they let him go with two games to 2460 01:59:27,960 --> 01:59:29,320 Speaker 2: goes we wouldn't get hurt and they'd have to pay 2461 01:59:29,360 --> 01:59:31,440 Speaker 2: US forty million dollars. He kind of played the victim 2462 01:59:31,480 --> 01:59:34,000 Speaker 2: on the way out. I didn't particularly care for that. 2463 01:59:34,360 --> 01:59:36,800 Speaker 2: I don't root it against that car at Derek Carr. 2464 01:59:37,400 --> 01:59:40,640 Speaker 2: Did I just say that was at a Freddian slip. Look, 2465 01:59:40,680 --> 01:59:44,000 Speaker 2: I don't root against him, but I don't expect him 2466 01:59:44,000 --> 01:59:47,440 Speaker 2: to ever do anything. My expectations to Derek Carr are 2467 01:59:47,520 --> 01:59:48,000 Speaker 2: not a lot. 2468 01:59:48,440 --> 01:59:48,560 Speaker 3: Right. 2469 01:59:48,600 --> 01:59:50,920 Speaker 2: It's like it's like getting a two dollars steak, right, 2470 01:59:51,360 --> 01:59:53,600 Speaker 2: Your expectations should not be high if you pay two 2471 01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:56,080 Speaker 2: dollars first steak. Not that I've ever done it, but 2472 01:59:56,160 --> 01:59:56,840 Speaker 2: you get the point. 2473 01:59:57,560 --> 01:59:58,720 Speaker 3: Derek Carr, good luck. 2474 01:59:58,840 --> 02:00:00,160 Speaker 2: You're gonna need it. It's gonna do a for the 2475 02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:03,080 Speaker 2: Bernie Friders Show. See you tonight at eleven PM.
