But we just 43 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: saw the dunk contest. Yeah you watching or. 44 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: No, I was watching, act you it was. I was 45 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: kicking back getting ready for the show, had it on, 46 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: was watching the whole thing, and I enjoyed it. 47 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: But go ahead, all right, Well, I mean a dunk concept. 48 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: It wasn't a very good dunk contest. I think mac 49 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: McClung is fun to watch, but every dunk seemed the same. 50 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: It was let's bring somebody out or a couple of 51 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: people and let's jump over them. Except for Jaylen Brown 52 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: once who just kind of put on a Michael Jackson 53 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: left glove. 54 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: He's trying. He's trying. 55 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was creative because he's not left handed. Is 56 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: what is what we find out. But I want to 57 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: do this, Like I understand like the fan vote always, 58 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 1: like the Pro Bowl vote or whatever like that. If 59 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: the fans are voting on it's gonna go to the 60 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: biggest stars. But when you've got like actual peers, you've 61 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: got legends like Dominique Wilkins judging this thing. Gary Payton's 62 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: out there and they are shading the lower star, the 63 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: guy in the Gili in favor of the name guy 64 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: Jalen Brown, who wasn't I mean, it's not like his 65 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: dunks were bad already, but there was nothing that was 66 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: let's just say, it wasn't blowing up the spot like 67 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: I wasn't seeing glass breaking in front of me or 68 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: anything like it was historic and they were giving him 69 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: every benefit of the doubt, and I was just kind 70 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: of like, this is the kind of thing you expect 71 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: from like just a basic basketball fan who has never 72 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: seen some of these people before. But he recognizes Jaylen 73 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: Brown who plays for the Celtics, so he gives him 74 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: the win. That's not supposed to happen with Judging in 75 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: a dunk contest like this got to be some of 76 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: just the most baffling, weird judging I've ever seen. And 77 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: the dunk concest itself was not very good either, so 78 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: this whole thing was a mess. 79 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: Well, I was pulling for McClung. He won, so he 80 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: got his second straight, so I was happy about that. Yeah, 81 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: nothing thrilling about Jyleb Brown's dunk. That's why mcclong won 82 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: because he jumped over what Jack and I don't think 83 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 2: it'd have either do with the props or the jersey 84 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: change by Jay Brown. Look, I enjoyed it. I mean, 85 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: what do you want? It's it's more of a comedy 86 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 2: than anything else. You gotta be generous on the scoring 87 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: otherwise none of these stars are gonna want to be 88 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: any slam dunk contest. It's tough enough to get these 89 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: guys that compee. Can you imagine if you said the 90 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: Jail Brown No, no, no, that that just sucked. We're 91 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: gonna give you a instead of like a forty eight 92 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 2: or forty nine, We're gonna give you like a thirty 93 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: two or something like that. 94 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: No, I'm not saying that, and I'm not even saying 95 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: the dunk wasn't a forty six or something. Dunks that 96 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: he did weren't a forty six. What I'm saying is 97 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: when you shade Mac McClung from the Osceola Magic, but 98 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: then the guy from the Boston Celtics does what I 99 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: think is pretty much an objectively worse dunk and gets 100 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: a higher score the other guys. Where That's where my 101 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: issue lies. It's not like I thought Jalen Brown was bad, 102 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: but none of that looks. I mean, none of that 103 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: was And that's the biggest problem I think overall with 104 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: the dunk contest, I'm not even gonna finish that thought 105 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: because I just think we've kind of seen about all 106 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: that can be done right at this point. Everything now 107 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: is iterative off of something else that's already been done. 108 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: And that's why I'm impressing with McClung, because at least 109 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: he's gonna go over somebody and he's gonna allupe it 110 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: to himself by just dropping the ball in the air 111 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: and then grabbing it again and reverse dunking it like 112 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: that's that's unique, that's original. But almost every dunk was 113 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: just somebody jumping over somebody else, and it's just there 114 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: was a time when this thing had a purpose. Now 115 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: it really is just all right we watch it. I 116 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: think now the pastime is just dogging on it after 117 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: the fact, just about every year. But it does it 118 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: does feel very it feels tired, and it feels it's 119 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: like pro bowlish at this point. 120 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 2: But was just saying, right, and I don't know what 121 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: they're gonna do next at this point. Maybe they'll have 122 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: the mascots come out and use it like the little 123 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: trampoline and see how how they can dunk different ways. 124 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: I mean that's the only way you can get any 125 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: higher or more rotation on it. There's always so many 126 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 2: things you could do, and I know people are unlike it. Buddy, 127 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: can we stop dunking over people? That that's played out? 128 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: What else do you want him to do? You want 129 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: to be dropped from the ceiling or something, Want to 130 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 2: risk your necker or something? Yeah, I mean there's only 131 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 2: so many ways you could dunk the ball, so it 132 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 2: is getting overplayed though, there's no doubt about that. 133 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I just think that. I mean, Vince 134 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: Carter still, that's the That's the best dunk contest performance 135 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. I will never forget it. 136 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: Are we just being the old school? Like Vin's Carter 137 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: nomin igue? 138 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: Wilno go back and actually watch the dunks? He was 139 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: doing his first dunk, which was the three sixty. He 140 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: is one of the prettiest dunks I've ever seen in 141 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: my life because of the power and just how smooth 142 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: it went through the net, the way it bounced off 143 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: the floor, it felt like it was going to hit 144 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: the ceiling. 145 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, but is he over people? 146 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: Come on, that's the whole point. Steve Francis in that 147 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: same dunk contest. I think tried to jump over Katino 148 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: Mobley or or mobile was throwing him the pass. I 149 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: think at one point Francis definitely did jump over somebody 150 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: and it was just like okay, man, like there's no 151 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: there was nothing to it. That's not the most impressive thing. 152 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Blake Griffin jumped over a car and I 153 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: thought that was one of the most overrated dunks I've ever. 154 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: Seen a really I remember that. I thought that was 155 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: gonna you like the Michael Jordan take off from the 156 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 2: foul line right and slam it you like that. 157 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that's great, But I mean, honestly, I 158 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: just like to see I mean, if you can do 159 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: a solid three sixty and it actually looks like a 160 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: work of art, like you've got your arm completely outstretched, 161 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: you don't have it all bent and contorted. It just 162 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: looks graceful and powerful. And that's what Carter did. I mean, Yeah, 163 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: Carter went through his legs on that third dunk, and 164 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: he put his elbow through the rim on the fourth dunk. 165 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: And we've seen people now do that ten fifteen years later, 166 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: they're still doing it. But there's just something about the 167 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: way the artistry of it's not like the most impossible 168 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: thing you've ever seen, But at the same time, you 169 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: never see anybody else do it. 170 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: Has anybody ever palmmed one you know, obviously one ball 171 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: each hand are different hands and tried to slam two times? 172 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: Yeah they have. Yeah, I think Aaron Gordon did that 173 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: as a matter of fact. Okay, it may have been 174 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: Aaron Gordon, but and look we've had in the last 175 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: ten years. I mean, you had Zach Lavine, who was 176 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: objectively really great dunker. Right, you had Aaron Gordon, objectively 177 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: a great dunker. One of the best done contests certainly 178 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: since the Carter had to have been the one that 179 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: was Aaron Gordon and Zach Lavine. That I think was 180 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: robbery that Gordon should have won that. I felt like 181 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: the judges scored that one incorrectly. But as great as 182 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: Levine was, it was fine. I mean, there weren't gonna 183 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: be a loser either way. They were both excellent. But 184 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: I mean, this thing is just We're gonna forget about 185 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: this by Monday. Except for the fact that mag McClung 186 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: has now won two two right, and only five people 187 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: have done that, including him, And that's a that's a 188 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: good list to be on. I mean, he's not going 189 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: to be known for anything basketball wise outside of that, 190 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: but that's something like if it wasn't for that. 191 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: Klung is is he like a golfer that's all drive 192 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 2: and no putt, no short game? 193 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: Is that? 194 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: Is that what you're kind of comparing it to or what? 195 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: I don't even know what to compare it to, because 196 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: it's just it's just I mean, it's a sideshow, right, 197 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not something you're going to see in 198 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 1: a game. It's just kind of it's so it's something 199 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: completely different than a game of basketball itself. 200 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 2: But one of those YouTubers that you see doing those 201 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: of course, you know, doing pickup games and trick shots 202 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 2: and surprising people how good they are and stuff like that, 203 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 2: Like the professor, I. 204 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: Had to admit this. I was in for Bernie Ferreto 205 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: last night into this morning, and I had to admit 206 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: to the audience. I was like, you know what this is. 207 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: This is sort of embarrassing, but maybe it just shows 208 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: that it didn't It just didn't register for me. I 209 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: didn't realize it was All Star weekend until last night. 210 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: I really didn't. I didn't It's not that I hadn't 211 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: been paying attention to anything that was happening in the NBA. 212 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: I just lost track of the calendar. All of a sudden, 213 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 1: look up, Well it's mid February. This is exactly when 214 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: it should be. But my mind was so focused on 215 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: the NFL, on the Super Bowl, college football and the 216 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: changes and the coaching carousel and all this, I just 217 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: lost track of the fact that it like, I look 218 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: up and the Rising Stars game is on last night, 219 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: and the Celebrity Game is on last night already, and 220 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: it just kind of it just hit me at once, 221 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: Oh wait, this is happening this weekend. Okay, gotcha. I 222 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: was seeing advertising. I thought they were setting it up 223 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks down the road. But no, no, 224 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: indeed it is this weekend. I don't know that I 225 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: was alone in that, but I felt like Kyle Shanahan 226 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: and talking about overtime rules. Yeah, I just didn't know. 227 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: And they're gonna be out for a long time too. 228 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 2: They get like seven days off or or total or 229 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: subding to that effect. So though I can see why 230 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 2: you missed it. We were all wrapped up into the NFL. 231 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 2: This This is no longer a must see event. You know, 232 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: if you have it on, that's fine. I could see 233 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 2: people missing it. It's gonna be you know, Sunday night, 234 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 2: and it went like eight thirty Eastern. People got stuff 235 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: to do, people were running around, people getting back from 236 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 2: the weekend. So I can see people kind of you know, 237 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: missing out and forgetting that inside. Like I said, it's 238 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 2: no longer must watch. I am happy they went back 239 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: to the old school East versus West, but I don't 240 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 2: think that's gonna change anybody's viewing of it, like, oh, 241 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 2: I've got to watch it now it's back to East 242 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: versus West. I think that that's gonna do anything. 243 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I don't either. I think if you're 244 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: gonna watch it, you're gonna watch it regardless of what 245 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: the rules are, and most most sports fans are gonna 246 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: tune in and out of it like it's not. I 247 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: don't know. There was a time when I watched the 248 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: entire game start to finish. I don't think so anymore. Now. 249 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: I will watch more of it this year that I 250 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: have the last few, because I'm gonna be in on 251 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: President's David Brian No in the morning for two pros 252 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: and a couple of Joe. So the expectation is probably 253 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: gonna be something to talk about coming out of that game. 254 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: So I'll be paying closer attention since I'm gonna you know, 255 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd call it analyze it, but 256 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: at least discuss it would be no on Monday morning. 257 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: But I don't think most people sit around and watch 258 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: it the way maybe we did. And it's not because 259 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: the star power is not there. It just doesn't feel 260 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: like it matters. I mean, the Pro Bowl is the 261 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 1: same way. I know, the Pro Bowl does great ratings 262 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: every year. I haven't watched it and I don't know 263 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: how long. 264 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: So they say so, they say it does great ratings 265 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 2: every year, but. 266 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: Well, I mean it does better other stuff, but it's 267 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: still I mean, if you're gonna relate it to other 268 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: football broadcasts, certainly, I think that you can snow people 269 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: over with the numbers that you're putting out there. But 270 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: I mean, how much of the All Star Game, the 271 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: NBA All Star Game, now do you generally watch. 272 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, obviously I watch up as it leads 273 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 2: up into my shows. Yeah, so I'm sitting around right right, 274 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 2: So I'm sitting here waiting to get on the air. 275 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 2: I got the game on and listening to the radio, 276 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 2: so obviously I'm watching it. If it was a Saturday 277 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 2: night and I had something to do when I was 278 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: going out, I'd probably go out and not even think 279 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 2: twice about it, watch all the highlights and and see 280 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 2: what it was about. Like I said, it's no longer 281 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 2: must see TV. It just you don't seem back in 282 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: the day, you know, you had more stars or more 283 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 2: Hall of Famers, I guess is what I wanted to say, 284 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 2: and you really wanted to watch. You don't have the 285 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 2: same Hall of Famers, no doubt about that. 286 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean there's a lot of talent, and I 287 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: love I love the NBA. I do, and especially when 288 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: you watch that Rising Stars and you realize how many 289 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: really really solid young players are in this league. Like 290 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: it's in good hands when it comes to the talent 291 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: in the future. But I think that now for me, 292 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: it's I'm gonna tune into the fourth quarter just on 293 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: a year to year basis because it gets competitive and 294 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: guys that pride and that's fun to watch. And then 295 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: outside of that, I'm just tune in and out between 296 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 1: I don't know some movie that's on, college basketball game 297 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: that might be on, or something else that I'm doing 298 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: at the time, like it's not something I'm gonna sit 299 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: down from tip to finish. Usually I watch the fourth 300 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: quarter and I watch TNT's postgame because it's always entertaining, 301 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: even though the All Star stuff gets annoying to me 302 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: just because I don't care about the celebrity factor. The 303 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: celebrity factor gets on my nerves after a while, and 304 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: it's usually the same cavalcade of the same stars over 305 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: and over again. It's like, oh, yeah, there's Kevin Hard again. 306 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: I think I can let that one go tonight, like 307 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: it's it's all right. But just the I enjoy the 308 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: T and T broadcasts the TNT post game more than 309 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: I think games eighty five percent of the time, so 310 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: I dv are that every week, even if I can't 311 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: watch the Thursday night games. But that's the NBA All 312 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: Star game. Mac McClung goes back to back. You heard 313 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: Steve di Seger say it off the top of our 314 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: program here. We'll hear more from Steve here. In about 315 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes or so, we'll get his first update of 316 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: the evening. We'll be forward to chatting with him when 317 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: we come back. Football is over right. We usually have 318 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: an opening here in this show that says Fox Football Saturday, 319 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: Erin Torris, Jason Martin. Now, it's Fox Sports Saturday, and 320 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: Erin Torres is not here. Arnie Spanier is. But we 321 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: are going to talk about some other sports. But we 322 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: need to kind of put a bow on the NFL 323 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: season and discuss a few things coming out of the 324 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: Super Bowl.

He's at Stinking 346 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: Genius one. I'm at JMR Radio on the X. Actually 347 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: went and kind of crowdsourced a little bit, just kind 348 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: of went through a search engine, and I want to 349 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: see how people thought about the commentary yeah night, because 350 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: I was kind of like, man, this is sort of 351 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: obnoxious the way this is being done. This little obnoxious. Apparently. 352 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: I wasn't alone, and I usually liked those guys a lot, 353 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: but they were kind of bickering, going back and forth, 354 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: and it was sort of odd and it was mildly distracting, 355 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: or not even mildly, it was pretty distracting, and a 356 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: lot of people were just, yeah, they needed to shake 357 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: up the commentary team along with the dunk contest. 358 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 2: Wow, I had to sound down. Yeah, I was just 359 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: watching the dunk, so I didn't hear the bickering or 360 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: anything like that going on. 361 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, Kenny Smith was really upset, and I 362 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: agree with him because, I mean, my point in the 363 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: first segment Arnie was just that Mac McClung deserved better 364 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: than he was getting from the judges in my righton 365 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: and it was it felt like to me, it was 366 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: because it's Jalen Brown, He's gonna get benefited the doubt 367 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: of the doubt when McClung is not. And I didn't 368 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: think anything was wrong with Jayleen Brown's dunks. I just 369 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: didn't think they were anything particularly special. Well, Kenny Smith 370 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 1: was irate about McClung's first dunk not getting near a 371 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: fifty because he did that sort of self value you. 372 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,959 Speaker 1: But it was the second dunk, and so the question was, well, 373 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: are they penalizing him because he didn't hit it the 374 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: first time around? And they argued about that back and forth, 375 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: and Kenny three or four dunks later, was still talking 376 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: about it. I can't. He's like, let it go. We 377 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: got to move on and. 378 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 2: Come on, man, have some fun with this out loud. 379 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was I don't know if I 380 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: was compelling or not, but it was annoying like it was. 381 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: It was irritating. Again. I'm a fan of Kenny Smith, 382 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: I always have been, but I've heard better from him. 383 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: Let's just say that, all right. So said we're gonna 384 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: talk about football? Is talk about football Super Bowl? Before 385 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: I even ask any kind of like direct questions that 386 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: have specifics, aren't he tell me your thoughts coming out 387 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: of that game? What are you thinking immediately about what 388 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: you just saw? 389 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, obviously, more credit to Mahomes. What 390 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 2: he did was phenomenal. I still don't put him into 391 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 2: Tom Brady same error or same you know page there. 392 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 2: So everybody's like, well, he's better than Tom Brady right now, 393 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 2: So I don't put him in that same category. 394 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: Yet. 395 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 2: We'll see what he does in the next one three 396 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 2: to four years and how many Super Bowls he gets 397 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 2: out there. I feel though after the game was over, 398 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: it was more for like, I felt more like the 399 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 2: forty nine ers let it slip away than Kansas City 400 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 2: winning it. Maybe that's the wrong attitude to have, but 401 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 2: I felt like San Francisco should have won the game, 402 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: could have won the game, but they didn't, you know, 403 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 2: And I just felt that they let this one just 404 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: kind of go through their fingers, and they made some 405 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 2: poor decisions, especially in the overtiming, and next thing you know, 406 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 2: Kansas City wins it. So I don't know if that's 407 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 2: the right attitude, but I was more like San Francisco 408 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 2: losted than Kansas City winning it, and I really shouldn't 409 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 2: have that attitude. 410 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: Well, what Mahomes did was really special, But to your point, 411 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: I think all of us watching felt like San Francisco 412 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: should have had a bigger lead at the end of 413 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: the first half. Of course, because they completely outplayed the 414 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: Chiefs by my estimation or at least by my observation, 415 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: in the first half of that game, but they didn't 416 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: have much to show for it on the scoreboard. And 417 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: if you do that against Mahomes, you're just cruising for 418 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: a bruising when they make their adjustments and when he 419 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: turns it into that extra gear laden games because he's 420 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: just clutching those spots and he's used to making things 421 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: happen in those moments. How much blame? Where does the 422 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: where is your blame? Pie? We're looking at the forty 423 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: nine ers. Where where are you placing blame? Well? This 424 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: is what I got to separated. 425 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 2: Plank and I are on the air, we're doing the show, obviously, 426 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: we're doing the game, and it's at halftime, and Plank's like, 427 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: what does Kansas City have to do in the second half? 428 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 2: You know what, what's what's the offense got to be like? 429 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 2: And I said, I gotta tell you, I'm surprised Mahomes 430 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: hasn't taken off. And you know, for those big ten 431 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 2: fifteen twenty yarders, if I'm him, I'm taken off and 432 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: I'm taken off a lot. And sure enough, and even 433 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 2: Pike's like, oh, I gotta give you credit for this one. 434 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 2: He had about what four or five runs, And what 435 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: San Francis is going to do is after the first one, 436 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 2: you're like, Okay, he's changing it up. We got to 437 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: put a spy on him. Can't let him do that. 438 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 2: And he did it like four or five more times, 439 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: and each won in a bigger and bigger moment, so 440 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 2: they couldn't stop that. That was another big part of 441 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 2: the offense. When Mahomes starts choosing his legs, now you're 442 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 2: in big trouble. Now you got the defense on his heels. 443 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 2: Then he started getting rid of the ball quick so 444 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 2: you couldn't lit them. Now you can't blit them. You 445 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: don't have a spy. Now you're completely disheveled. Now you 446 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: don't know what the hell to do and what's coming next. 447 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: And that's when Kansas City started to get things rolling 448 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 2: there at that point, Jason, what. 449 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: Do you make of Nick Bosa after the game saying, yeah, 450 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: we're not prepared for Mahomes to run on back to 451 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: back plays. 452 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's bogus, both of them. I think 453 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 2: that's bogus to say, well, we could have been more prepared. 454 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 2: I mean, you're not gonna be prepared for every play. 455 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 2: Let's stop it. There are professionals on the other side, 456 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: are they not. I mean, you think you're just gonna 457 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 2: go ahead and figure out everything every time. It's like 458 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 2: playing poker with the best. Are you gonna win every hand? 459 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: You're not even gonna win every air when you play 460 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 2: with the worst out there. So you know, I thought 461 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 2: that was a bogus attitude, bogus thing to say, and 462 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 2: throwing your coaches under the bus, and you're gouda been 463 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: more prepared. What could you have done? More study, more film? 464 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 2: I mean, man, you're coming through sixteen games the playoffs, 465 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 2: stop it. I mean, eventually, you can't have all in 466 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,959 Speaker 2: the film movement, all the coaches. You got to make 467 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 2: some plays on the field. 468 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: And maybe he just put it wrong, and maybe really 469 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 1: what he should have said. Maybe yeah, maybe he should 470 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: have just said, look, we weren't expecting him to run 471 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: back to back and so we got caught off guard 472 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: on that second one. Like he made us look foolish, 473 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: because that's indeed what it looked like. Now, there was 474 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: questions as to whether or not Bosa particularly was held 475 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: on the second play, but there's holes all over the 476 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: field anyway. The other thing I look at is if 477 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: you're talking about the blame game here, since that's the 478 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 1: way you framed it in terms of forty nine ers 479 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: losing it, If we want to take it from that perspective, 480 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: what do you think about the disappearance when it comes 481 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: to using Christian McCaffrey in the third quarter, when you 482 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: had brock Party throw eleven passes and McCaffrey touched the 483 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 1: ball one time to open the second half, It seems 484 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 1: to me that if you're trying to beat somebody like 485 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, the best way to beat him is keep 486 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: him on the sidelines, and so you either have to 487 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: you have to continue moving the chains by throwing complete passes, 488 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: or you run the football and let the clock continue 489 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: to drown. Shorten the game a little bit. You ended 490 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 1: up giving the Chief six or seven possessions in the 491 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: second half of that game. I want to say it 492 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: was five in the first half. You just I think 493 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: you lengthened the game and gave Kansas City more of 494 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: a chance to find a rhythm. I know that McCaffrey 495 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 1: didn't have stellar numbers in the first half, right, but 496 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: I just feel like you keep handing him the ball. 497 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: Eventually he's gonna break one. Eventually he's gonna break one open. 498 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: He's gonna do something. Get him off on some screens, 499 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: get him in the flats. I didn't understand the offensive 500 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: strategy in the third quarter for San Francisco because I 501 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: felt like they lost the momentum at a moment when 502 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: they could have seized it. 503 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 2: Oh, you've heard this before. Dance with who brow you 504 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 2: and not dancing with McCaffrey. I mean, this is the 505 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 2: reason you traded for him for this moment. Second half 506 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,239 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl and then you what you go 507 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 2: away from him though, that's that's not what you do. 508 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 2: I've given him the ball now it might not be 509 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 2: every time. Maybe I gotta swing it out of the backfield. 510 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,719 Speaker 2: I gotta come up with different ways to get him 511 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: the ball. That's fine, but not on the first way. 512 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 2: Would you say thirteen plays to go to one's That's 513 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 2: that's where you started losing all the momentum there. I 514 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 2: remember the third quarter they barely had any yards. It 515 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 2: was slipping all away then. And no, you can't do that. 516 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 2: You can't go away for McCaffrey when you got that 517 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 2: far at that point with him. 518 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: More on the homes here in a bit, but let's 519 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 1: go to our MVP, Steve de Seger. Let's talk to 520 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 1: him for the first time tonight. Find what's happening in 521 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: the world of sports. Steve good evening. 522 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 2: He's like my personal catcher. I made him work today 523 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: because I'm because I'm working. 524 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 5: That's why, hello, gentlemen, we do have And this is 525 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 5: the most amazing thing. Not only Arnie on the air, 526 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 5: but Arizona is killing somebody at the same time. He's 527 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 5: the kiss of death, usually for his Wildcats, but on 528 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 5: FS one in college hoops, fifth ranked Arizona with about 529 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 5: three and a half minutes to go leeds rival Arizona 530 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 5: State ninety two to fifty seven. 531 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 2: We're definitely going to the final four. I mean we 532 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: should win it all. 533 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: You guys, that's awesome in the tournament. 534 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 2: We're I don't like that outtitude at all. I liked 535 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 2: that at all. 536 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 5: And where is the final four this year? 537 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 2: Ernie Spader Phoenix, Arizona, Arizona.

Yeah, the Rocky outfits apparently didn't work for 597 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Flyers. 598 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 2: Did you like that? I loved I sent that over 599 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 2: to you. I thought that was fantastic. I like that 600 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 2: one that was two in the Rocky hoodies. 601 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like good, good for them. I just feel 602 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: like you do that you should probably win. Although Rocky 603 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: didn't win all of his fights. 604 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 2: No he didn't. It was a struggle early. You know that. 605 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: That's true. We are live tyreck dot com Studios. So 606 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: back to the Super Bowl for a bit. Yeah, I've 607 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: been thinking all this week about mahomes and how to 608 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: talk about mahomes because we know what we were gonna 609 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: hear coming out of that game. And you already made 610 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: the point about Tom Brady and not putting him in 611 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: that category just yet. But I would say this, I 612 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: don't think there is anybody that he is competing with 613 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: that is active in the league. Like I don't think 614 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: that there is a quarterback at this point that is 615 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: his contemporary, because he keeps beating them all, Like Josh Allen. 616 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: I get it, but Josh Allen's lost every big game 617 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: to him. Joe Burrow got him one time. But Joe Burrow, 618 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: to me, I think we need to start worrying about 619 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: his injuries long term because he's missed a lot of 620 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: time in his career. As good as he's been, you 621 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: look at anybody else you want to name Lamar that 622 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: took a step back big time. Oh, absolutely huge, Jenny 623 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: AFC title game like that was his moment and it 624 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: felt like Torres said it this way, I agree with him. 625 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: It looked like the Ravens panicked when they saw the 626 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: Chiefs and they got away from doing what got them there. 627 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: They just abandoned the Ravens offense we had seen and 628 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: credit Spagnolo in his defense for some of this as well. 629 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: But the raven like you mentioned it earlier, the cliche 630 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: you dance with who brung you, You dance with what 631 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,479 Speaker 1: brung you. Well, they didn't. They abandoned it and they 632 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: got beaten. But at this point you got to push 633 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: Lamar to the side a bit, at least in a 634 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: comparison with Mahomes. He's beating them all. He beat Hertz 635 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: last year, He's beaten Dak Prescott, He's beating everybody that 636 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: you want to mention. He's beaten Trevor Lawrence. Like at 637 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: this stage, to me, he really is competing with history. 638 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: Right now. You can say what you said about Brady, 639 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 1: and I don't necessarily think you're wrong. Tom will tell 640 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: on that. But there's nobody that's active in the league 641 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 1: right now that you can say with a straight face 642 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with Patrick 643 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: Mahomes at this point. 644 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 2: No, you're one hundred percent right on that. He's second 645 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 2: to none with all the active quarterbacks in the NFL. 646 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: One on that. But we really even shouldn't compare him 647 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 2: to Brady. Before you get to Brady, don't you have 648 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 2: to get to Joe Montana. Before you get to Joe Montana, 649 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 2: don't you have to get the Terry Bradshaw right. I 650 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 2: mean maybe he's right around there now, but a little 651 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 2: bit blowed to because Terry one went five Super Bowls. 652 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Montana. I think he tied, right because 653 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: Montana won three and now he's won three? Is that right? 654 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: Or hitting something? 655 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 2: Who Montana? 656 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: Montana won three? Right? Right? So so he's there already. 657 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 2: He's there already, but you know, so there's a national 658 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 2: natural progression to get up there. So I don't know 659 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 2: if he's right with Terry Bradshaw yet. So obviously he's 660 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 2: got a couple more to get there. And then you 661 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 2: start talking about Tom Brady, but obviously he's a better 662 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 2: quarterback than Bradshaw was. I mean Bradshaw and Hall of 663 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: famers on his team. This is second year in a row. 664 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 2: He's what do you go without Tyreek Hill? Which is 665 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 2: so impressive, which is crazy. 666 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know I had heard the of course, 667 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: and you knew you were gonna hear this, the Jordan 668 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: Lebron comparison with Brady and Mahomes. I don't think it 669 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: works completely right, but I do think there is part 670 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: of it that I like, in terms of one thing 671 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,959 Speaker 1: that Lebron James had that was just it was almost otherworldly, 672 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: like it didn't make any sense based on how physically 673 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: he played and how physically he was played, like how 674 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: he was defended. And this isn't true now because he's 675 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: gotten older, but Lebron James was just stupid healthy for 676 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: over a decade. Like he didn't miss much time. He 677 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: didn't have that like critical injury that changed how he played. 678 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: He didn't have like the Penny Hardaway moment or the 679 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: Grand Hill moment, or just somebody that perennially kept getting hurt, 680 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: like a Chris Paul or somebody like that. He was 681 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: out there all the time, He played all the time. 682 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: Mahomes has been hurt, but Mahomes hasn't missed much time either. 683 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: Those two guys, And you talk about the chase for 684 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: Lebron Lebron, I don't think that we ever saw him 685 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: being Michael Jordan. Most of us didn't, at least now 686 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: if you were younger didn't get to watch Jordan play, 687 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: maybe you could look at it from that perspective. I 688 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: do think we're watching Mahomes more like we watched Tiger 689 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: Woods chase Jack Nicholas right, Like Jack was the greatest, 690 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: but we were watching Tiger do things that we knew 691 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: Jack couldn't even do in terms of his length, in 692 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: terms of just the power with which he approached golf 693 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: and all that. I think that's the same thing with 694 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: Mahomes and Tom Brady. Tom Brady can easily be your 695 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: Jack Nicholas, but I think Patrick Mahomes is slowly but 696 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: surely becoming our Tiger Woods. 697 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 2: Well because he's more athletic. He does a lot more 698 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 2: on the field than Tom Brady does because he's able 699 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 2: to use his legs. I don't remember how many times 700 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 2: that Brady was running and using his legs earlier in 701 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 2: his career, but it's obviously not as much as Mahomes 702 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 2: does out there. You're right, do you consider tom Brady though, 703 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 2: injury because of that one year where he was a 704 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 2: limitee uh you know didn't the Macastle year, Yeah, the 705 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 2: Madcastle a year. But other than that, the guy was pretty, 706 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: you know, perfectly healthy. 707 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, that's definitely true, and so was Jordan. 708 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. I'm just saying that one of 709 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: the things that tends to be true about these all 710 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: time greats, right is they do avoid that big injury 711 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: and they play a whole lot right right, and they're 712 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: available at times when other guys are not well. Come 713 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,919 Speaker 1: back out of this break. I want to talk about 714 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: a couple of teams that were interested in going into 715 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: next year, and a couple of teams maybe we're just 716 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: kind of like, all right, yeah, no, Moss, like never again, 717 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: am I gonna get sucked into that world and buy 718 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: into that? We'll do that. On the other side, it 719 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 1: is Arnie Spanner. I'm Jason Martin here on Fox Sports Radio. 720 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 721 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 3: the nation.

He's Arnie, I'm Jason. Aaron 728 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: Torres is usually with me on Saturday evenings. Eron's off 729 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: and Aaron before I was with him every week was 730 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 1: with Arnie. So here we go, all right, Arnie, So 731 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 1: to put a little bit of a bow on at 732 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: least where we are right now in the NFL. Yeah, 733 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,799 Speaker 1: and we may talk party in a couple of other 734 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 1: things later, but give me a couple of teams. I 735 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: had more time last night, so I devoted a lengthy 736 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 1: segment to a couple of lists. I did a top 737 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: five team to have me interested right now going into 738 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,280 Speaker 1: next year, knowing that things are going to change between 739 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: now and the start of the season, whether it's injuries, 740 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: free agency, draft, whatever, give me a couple of teams 741 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: to have your interest, and give me a couple of 742 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: teams where you're just like, nope, I'm done. 743 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 2: Well. Obviously heard the Chicago Bears right off the bat. 744 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 2: I mean, I won't know what's gonna go on with 745 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 2: Justin Fields where he's going to go. Obviously they'll take 746 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 2: the number one pick and get Caleb Williams. So I'm 747 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 2: curious to see how they're gonna be this year with 748 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams. What's the growing pains? Is he gonna be 749 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 2: the superstar that everybody thinks he's gonna be. I mean, 750 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 2: if the if the Bears were on Monday Night Football 751 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 2: from the start, I want to see what this guy's 752 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 2: going to do. He's the big name coming in So 753 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 2: I'm I'm curious as hell to see what this guy's 754 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 2: gonna do. I'm also curious about the Raiders and what 755 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 2: kind of moves are gonna make and who's gonna be 756 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: their quarterback. And they got a new coach him, you know, 757 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 2: obviously can they continue or grow on some of the 758 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 2: wins at the end of last year. So I want 759 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,280 Speaker 2: to see what the Raiders are gonna do to it. Obviously, 760 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 2: the Chargers with Harbaugh, I mean, that's that's gonna be 761 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 2: a media circus. Chason, I mean, my goodness, you're gonna 762 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 2: want to hear every SoundBite, every cut, you know, every practice. 763 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 2: The media is gonna be out there. So obviously you 764 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 2: got to put them on that list. Also, you want 765 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,399 Speaker 2: to keep up on the Chargers and what they're going 766 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 2: to do. 767 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Chargers were The way I did my list is 768 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 1: just whatever came to mind first, I put down first, 769 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: and even though I wasn't trying to rank them, it 770 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 1: felt like if it was front of mind and I 771 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: didn't have to think about it, then it probably was 772 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: the top of the list. And the Chargers were the 773 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: second team that I wrote down when I did this exercise. 774 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: The first team I wrote down was the Texans, and 775 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 1: it's because CJ. Stroud just finished that rookie year the 776 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:31,240 Speaker 1: way he did that year, and they they have sixty 777 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: one million dollars to spend right now. They have some 778 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: guys that need to rescimn but they also have some 779 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,760 Speaker 1: guys they can probably move on from. It's a division 780 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: that puts them in a good spot. Even though you've 781 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 1: got a Trevor Lawrence, You've got Richardson coming back off 782 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: the injury, Levis and year two with a new coach 783 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 1: all that. But the Texans, to me, you just have 784 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: to see because things change from year to year in 785 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 1: this league. The Texans feel to me like the Lions 786 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,879 Speaker 1: felt prior to the hype, right, and then you come 787 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: into the next season and there's hype, and then well, 788 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: what are the Lions gonna do with hype? Well, they 789 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 1: did pretty well. Obviously, they can't get to a super Bowl, 790 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: but they came awfully close. They got in their own 791 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: way and it cost them a chance to actually get 792 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. But the Texans could certainly go 793 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,760 Speaker 1: that direction, but they could also go in the direction 794 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: of a team that had a great year and then 795 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: it comes back and it's not the same because you've 796 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 1: always heard the old adage of you know, wait until 797 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: they get tape on them. But the problem here is 798 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 1: if you're trying to get tape on CJ. Stroud, all 799 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: the tape reveals is that he's really accurate, right, and 800 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: he's got a lightning quick release and he throws a 801 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: perfect football like spiral that you just it's gorgeous in 802 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: the air. That to me is why, like you look 803 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 1: at the AFC and you look at teams that I 804 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: don't believe in championship windows. We talked about this many times. 805 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,879 Speaker 1: But when you look at the Texans, that's a young 806 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: team that's still got a quarterback on a rookie contract 807 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: that actually has time to do something righty to do 808 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:01,399 Speaker 1: it with, Well. 809 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 2: What big name do you think they're going now? I mean, 810 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 2: like I said, they have a quarterback. Some of the 811 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 2: other teams you know, are certainly gonna make some big 812 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: moves out there. 813 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: Now. 814 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 2: Maybe they'll go out and get themselves a running back. 815 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 2: But I like Singletary, I like Peers, you know, don't 816 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 2: have to spend a lot of money with those guys. Also, 817 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,760 Speaker 2: obviously they could do something maybe at the receiving cores. 818 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 2: But they've got very good receivers or decent receivers, So 819 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 2: maybe they make a move there, but all their money's 820 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 2: probably gonna be spent on defense. 821 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I don't think that they have to go 822 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,479 Speaker 1: out and make some gigantic right right. I think that's 823 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 1: the point. I think that you just get better in 824 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: certain spots. You just keep tweaking it here and there. 825 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 1: I don't know that you need the big splash. You're 826 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: gonna get some guys back off injury, but you also 827 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: made some stars. You don't necessarily have to go out 828 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: and buy your stars tot least all of them. Yeah. 829 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 2: Well, once the season starts, obviously, I'll keep my eye 830 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 2: on that. But you were saying, like in the offseason though, 831 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 2: what moves, what teams are gonna be keeping your eye 832 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 2: on for the draft and stuff like that. Chicago's got 833 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 2: to be top of that list. I can't wait to 834 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 2: see how this is all gonna play out. 835 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's more, and maybe we'll do some more in 836 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: the next hour. I also want to talk about to 837 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: open hour two, we're going to talk about Caitlin Clark 838 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:11,399 Speaker 1: and what happened with her breaking the record and how 839 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,919 Speaker 1: we don't need to cheapen it by taking it way 840 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: further than it needs to be. We need to keep 841 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: it in perspective, ladies and gentlemen. We will explain exactly 842 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 1: what that means. We are live here in the tire 843 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 1: rack dot Com studios. Erit Torres of course is out. 844 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: Arnie Spanier here with me.

He's Arnie, I'm Jason. Aaron 850 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: Torre is usually with me on Saturday evenings. Aeron's off, 851 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,320 Speaker 1: and Aaron before I was with him every week, was 852 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: with Arnie. So here we go, all right, Arnie, So 853 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: to put a little bit of a bow on at 854 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 1: least where we are right now in the NFL. Yeah, 855 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: and we may talk party you in a couple of 856 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 1: other things later, but give me a couple of teams. 857 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 1: I had more time last night, so I devoted a 858 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:16,799 Speaker 1: lengthy segment to a couple of lists I did a 859 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 1: top five teams to have me interested right now going 860 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: into next year, knowing that things are going to change 861 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 1: between now and the start of the season, whether it's injuries, 862 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: free agency, draft, whatever, give me a couple of teams 863 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: to have your interest, and give me a couple of 864 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 1: teams where you're just like, nope, I'm done. 865 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 2: Well. I mean, obviously the Chicago Bears right off the bat, 866 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm wonder know what's gonna go on with 867 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 2: Justin Fields where he's going to go. Obviously, they'll take 868 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,439 Speaker 2: the number one pick and get Caleb Williams. So I'm 869 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 2: curious to see how they're gonna be this year with 870 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams. What's the growing pains? Is he going to 871 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 2: be the superstar that everybody thinks he's going to be. 872 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean, if the if the Bears were on Monday 873 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 2: Night Football from the start, I want to see what 874 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,879 Speaker 2: this guy's going to do. He's the big name coming in, 875 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 2: so I'm I'm cures is hell to see what this 876 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 2: guy's gonna do. I'm also curious about the Raiders and 877 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 2: what kind of movies they are gonna make him. Who's 878 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 2: gonna be their quarterback? And they got a new coach him, 879 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 2: you know, obviously can they continue or grow on some 880 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 2: of the wins at the end of the last year. 881 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 2: So I want to see what the Raiders are gonna 882 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 2: do to it. Obviously, the Chargers with Harbaugh, I mean, 883 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,879 Speaker 2: that's that's gonna be a media circus chase, and I mean, 884 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 2: my goodness, you're gonna want to hear every SoundBite, every cut, 885 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 2: you know, every practice. The media is gonna be out there. 886 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 2: So obviously you got to put them on that list. Also, 887 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 2: you want to keep up on the Chargers and what they're. 888 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: Going to do. Yeah, Chargers were the way I did 889 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: my list is just whatever came to mind first, I 890 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 1: put down first, and even though I wasn't trying to 891 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: rank them, it felt like if it was front of 892 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,319 Speaker 1: mind and I didn't have to think about it, then 893 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 1: it probably was the top of the list. And the 894 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: Chargers were the second team that I wrote down when 895 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,479 Speaker 1: I did this exercise. The first team I wrote down 896 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: was the Texans, and it's because CJ. Stroud just finished 897 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 1: that rookie year the way he did, great year, and 898 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: they they have sixty one million dollars to spend right now. 899 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: They have some guys that need to resemb but they 900 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: also have some guys they could probably move on from. 901 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 1: It's a division that puts them in a good spot. 902 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: Even though you've got a Trevor Lawrence, you've got Richardson 903 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: coming back off the injury, Levison year two with a 904 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 1: new coach, all that. But the Texans, to me, you 905 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: just have to see because things change from year to 906 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 1: year in this league. The Texans feel to me like 907 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: the Lions felt prior to the hype, right, and then 908 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 1: you come into the next season and there's hype, and 909 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 1: then well, what are the Lions gonna do with hype? Well, 910 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 1: they did pretty well. Obviously they can't get to a 911 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 1: super Bowl, but they came awfully close. They got in 912 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: their own way and it cost them a chance to 913 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: actually get to the super Bowl. But the Texans could 914 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: certainly go that direction, and but they could also go 915 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: in the direction of a team that had a great 916 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: year and then it comes back and it's not the 917 00:43:54,880 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: same because you've always heard the old adage of you know, 918 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: wait until they get tape on them. But the problem 919 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: here is if you're trying to get tape on CJ. Stroud, 920 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: all the tape reveals is that he's really accurate, right, 921 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 1: and he's got a lightning quick release and he throws 922 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: a perfect football like spiral that you just it's gorgeous 923 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: in the air. That to me is what like you 924 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: look at the AFC and you look at teams that 925 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 1: I don't believe in championship windows. We talked about this 926 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 1: many times, but when you look at the Texans, that's 927 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: a young team that's still got a quarterback on a 928 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: rookie contract, that actually has time to do something and 929 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: ready to do it with. 930 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 2: Well, what big name do you think they're going now? 931 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 2: I mean, like I said, they have a quarterback. Some 932 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 2: of the other teams you know, are certainly going to 933 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 2: make some big moves out there. 934 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 1: Now. 935 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 2: Maybe they'll go out and get themselves a running back. 936 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 2: But I like Singletary, I like Peers, you know, I 937 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 2: don't have to spend a lot of money with those guys. Also, 938 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 2: obviously they could do something maybe at the receiving corps, 939 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 2: but they've got very good receivers or decent receivers, So 940 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 2: maybe they make a move there, but all their money's 941 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 2: probably gonna be spent on defense. 942 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I don't think that they have to go 943 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: out make some gigantic right right. I think that's the point. 944 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: I think that you just get better in certain spots. 945 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: You just keep tweaking it here and there. I don't 946 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: know that you need the big splash. You're gonna get 947 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: some guys back off injury, but you also made some stars. 948 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 1: You don't necessarily have to go out and buy your 949 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: stars total, least all of them. 950 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, once the season starts, obviously, I keep my 951 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 2: eye on that. But you were saying, like in the 952 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 2: off season though, what moves, what teams are going to 953 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 2: be keeping your eye on for the draft and stuff 954 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 2: like that. Chicago's got to be top of that list. 955 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 2: I can't wait to see how this is all going 956 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:30,439 Speaker 2: to play out. 957 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's more, and maybe we'll do some more in 958 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:36,360 Speaker 1: the next hour. I also want to talk about to 959 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,240 Speaker 1: open hour two, we're going to talk about Caitlin Clark 960 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: and what happened with her breaking the record and how 961 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 1: we don't need to cheapen it by taking it way 962 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 1: further than it needs to be. You need to keep 963 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:54,360 Speaker 1: it in a perspective, ladies and gentlemen. We will explain 964 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 1: exactly what that means. We are live here in the 965 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: tire rack dot Com studio. Eritsras of course is out. 966 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 1: Arnie Spanier here with me, will be back. Our two 967 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: of the program is next here on Fox Sports Radio, 968 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 1: Ireck dot Com Studios. I'm Jason Martin. He's Arney Spanier. 969 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: He's at Sninking Genius one on X. You can find 970 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 1: me at jmar Radio if you'd like rock Perdy Arnie 971 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,720 Speaker 1: loser of the Super Bowl at quarterback for the forty 972 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 1: nine ers, always. 973 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 2: Lots of steak. Was a lot of steak for him 974 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 2: in that game, more than just the Super Bowl. 975 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was. And again he's always going to have 976 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,760 Speaker 1: to prove it more because of where he was drafted. 977 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 1: That's always going to be the talk. Anytime he has 978 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: a bad game, it's, well, this is why he was 979 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 1: mister irrelevant. The benefit of the doubt is usually not 980 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 1: going to go to him. It's just not that's just 981 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 1: the way it works. I don't think it's fair, and 982 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: I think that many times he's been he's been unfairly 983 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: criticized because of that in a way that he wouldn't 984 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: have if he had been drafted in the third round, 985 00:46:58,520 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: for instance. 986 00:46:59,280 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 3: But. 987 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 1: He had what forty two hundred yards. I think in 988 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 1: a regular season throwing the foot ball, his record's outstanding three. 989 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 2: To one ratio touchdowns and interceptions. 990 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 1: Yes, I think he's averaging. I think during this season. 991 00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: I don't have it directly in front of me, but 992 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: it was like the five game Stample size. He didn't 993 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: throw for much. They kind of protected him more. But 994 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: I think he averaged two hundred and sixty yards or 995 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 1: so a game this past year. So that upped his 996 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 1: career average like two twenty five or somewhere in that 997 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 1: neighborhood passer ratings. Fine, he has turned it over, but 998 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:37,360 Speaker 1: it hasn't been horrendous or anything like that. So looking 999 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: at that, and he was in the MVP discussion deep into. 1000 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 2: The season, very deep into the seasons. 1001 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 1: So what do we know now about brock Party? Already? 1002 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 1: When I say Brock Party, what do you say? 1003 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:50,959 Speaker 2: What do you do? What do I know now about 1004 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,919 Speaker 2: Brock Party? He was fighting for the big contract when 1005 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: his contract's up, saying, hey, look what I've done. I've 1006 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 2: won a super Bowl. Now I don't want to finished 1007 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:02,439 Speaker 2: what he's done. He took a team to the super Bowl, 1008 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:05,439 Speaker 2: so he still deserves that big contract and That's who 1009 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 2: Brock Purty is. He's a quarterback. He's a franchise quarterback, 1010 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 2: a quarterback that you want to lock up, a quarterback 1011 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 2: that you want there to be for the next ten 1012 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,240 Speaker 2: to fifteen years. And that's who San Francisco's quarterback should 1013 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 2: be moving forward. The big quarterback Risper in Shanahan. He 1014 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 2: got lucky, He got lucky. He was looking at Trey 1015 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 2: Lance for crying out loud. Screwed that up, mister quarterback Whisper, 1016 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 2: screwed it up big time. You just got saved by 1017 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 2: mister irrelevant who turned into Brock Party and had a 1018 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 2: really good year. So when his contract's up, you give 1019 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,320 Speaker 2: him the money. You're not gonna give him a homes 1020 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 2: money or anything like that, but I would say he 1021 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 2: deserves money right up there with like a Dak Prescott. 1022 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:52,439 Speaker 2: Certainly's done a lot more than a Dak Prescott does. 1023 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 2: So we'll see what his agent asks for, but he 1024 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,759 Speaker 2: there certainly deserves to be the franchise quarterback for the 1025 00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 2: forty nine ers. 1026 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:00,879 Speaker 1: So you mentioned Trey Lance. I never really thought about 1027 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 1: asking you this question or talking about this at all, 1028 00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: But what do you think? What do you think happens 1029 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. If that original rumor had been true 1030 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 1: and they had drafted mac Jones instead of Trey Lance, I. 1031 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,759 Speaker 2: Think they would have found out quickly also that mac 1032 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:19,240 Speaker 2: Jones wouldn't have been the answer. 1033 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 1: Okay, And they don't really blame the Patriots situation for 1034 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,399 Speaker 1: mac Jones. You just think mac Jones didn't have much. 1035 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,959 Speaker 2: I look, I don't want to pretend like I knew 1036 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,479 Speaker 2: he was going to be a buzzer or anything like that. 1037 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,879 Speaker 2: I thought that, you know, it was worth the draft 1038 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,239 Speaker 2: pick for the Patriots at the time, So I don't 1039 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 2: want to be a hypocrite on that, but yes, I 1040 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 2: think they would have realized that mac Jones doesn't have 1041 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,360 Speaker 2: a lot in the tank and a lot to offer. 1042 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,800 Speaker 2: And it was pretty irrelevant when when you watch the 1043 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,840 Speaker 2: the were good Patriots. I mean, he did some good things, 1044 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:52,359 Speaker 2: but they were not even close to a playoff team 1045 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 2: with him at quarterback. 1046 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 1: So I find the discourse surrounding Rock Party frustrating because 1047 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:03,800 Speaker 1: I feel like like it's it's either really really overplayed 1048 00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 1: or really really condescending. It's one extreme or the other. 1049 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: It's it's way high or it's way low. Think Yeah, 1050 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 1: I don't think it's either one. I think it's he's fine. 1051 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 2: He's a franchise quarterback, though you've got to get in 1052 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 2: the contract. You gotta lock him up. No way you're 1053 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:26,879 Speaker 2: gonna let him walk away when when the quarterback depends. 1054 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 1: On much money he's asking for There there is There 1055 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: are definitely circumstances where I would let him walk away. 1056 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 2: He's not going to ask for more money to where 1057 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:36,880 Speaker 2: the point is that San Francisco is good to let 1058 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 2: him walk away, It's just not going to get to that. 1059 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 2: So you'd probably rather have more than justin fields at 1060 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:43,720 Speaker 2: this point. 1061 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 1: How many guys could you put in that spot that 1062 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 1: are currently playing in the NFL that would have succeeded 1063 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 1: to a similar degree as brock Party, just in your estimation. 1064 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo, Wait a minute, No, that's no, that's a bad. 1065 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: I mean, there's definitely some guys that wouldn't. I'm not 1066 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:02,240 Speaker 1: suggesting all. I'm just wondering how many how many quarterbacks 1067 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 1: in this league do you think it thrive with that? 1068 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 1: And with that around him? 1069 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 2: Does San Francisco get to the super Bowl with Dak Prescott? 1070 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that's a good questions. 1071 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 2: Let me help you on that one. The answer is no. Okay, 1072 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,799 Speaker 2: the answer is no around him. Do they get to 1073 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 2: the super Bowl with with with Tua? 1074 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 1: That's I mean, that's another good one. I'm not saying, 1075 00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 1: like I said, I'm not saying that this is an 1076 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:34,399 Speaker 1: all or nothing. I'm just asking you for your opinion, like. 1077 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 2: Right, right, right, right, No, I mean they were just 1078 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 2: saying I don't think they get there. 1079 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: Would Prescott be with Kyle Shannan as his coach instead 1080 00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:42,439 Speaker 1: of what he's got? 1081 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 2: Well, I don't buy into the whole quarterback whisper when 1082 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 2: you went and traded a million picks to get Trey Lance. 1083 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:52,240 Speaker 1: Well fallible, but he has been able to win games 1084 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 1: with guys that seemingly no one else was going to 1085 00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 1: be able to win with. 1086 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 2: If I'm a mathematician, you better believe I'm not going 1087 00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 2: to fail any test for crying out loud. And he 1088 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 2: failed that drey LANs test. I got to question the 1089 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,399 Speaker 2: whole quarterback whispered thing out there. I don't know, Maybe 1090 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 2: they go to the super Bowl with Tua. I would 1091 00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 2: say that I could see that's a possibility. I'm a 1092 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 2: Miami guy, But you know, I like the way to 1093 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:17,920 Speaker 2: have played last year. I think he had a good year. 1094 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:20,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Here's here's what I would say about Brockberty, 1095 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: and I've defended him a lot this year. He definitely 1096 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: showed some flaws in the playoffs pretty consistently. Where if 1097 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 1: you want to question how high a ceiling is, I'm 1098 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:35,320 Speaker 1: willing to talk about that, but I'm not gonna listen 1099 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 1: to the argument that he's in the basement somewhere like 1100 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:43,239 Speaker 1: that's that's not fair and it's not good analysis in 1101 00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:47,959 Speaker 1: any way. There are definitely throws that he missed. There's 1102 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,600 Speaker 1: some accuracy issues. Sometimes he throws some really ugly looking passes. 1103 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: Not that it matters as well as they're finding homes too. 1104 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, so do mahomes. 1105 00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean everybody could be Aujosh these things. I 1106 00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:07,640 Speaker 1: just think that when you say franchise quarterback, I want 1107 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 1: to believe that franchise quarterback should also mean irreplaceable, right. 1108 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 1: I don't think that's true. 1109 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:15,879 Speaker 2: About brock perty Josh Allen, I think he's the start. 1110 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: How about this, I think there's a difference between calling 1111 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 1: somebody a franchise quarterback calling them a solid starting quarterback. Well, 1112 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 1: I would go with I would say he's a solid, 1113 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: decently solid starting quarterback. I don't know if I go 1114 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: so far as to say he's clearly a franchise quarterback with. 1115 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 2: San Francisco made the Super Bowl with Josh Allen. Yes, 1116 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,240 Speaker 2: who would you rather have Josh Allen or Brock Party? 1117 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,240 Speaker 2: Josh Allen because of all the success that he's had. 1118 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:47,520 Speaker 1: It's I'm not basing it on wins and losses. I'm 1119 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:49,360 Speaker 1: not basing it up because wins and losses are a 1120 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 1: horrible way to evaluate quarterbacks. 1121 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 2: We would Mark Jackson have gotten San Francis, go to 1122 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 2: the good get Baltimore to the super Bowl. 1123 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 1: That's true. But do you think brock Party is the 1124 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 1: one that got San Francisco to the Super himself? Now? 1125 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 2: But we're not going to give him credit for it. 1126 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 1: Yes, I'm not saying you don't give him any credit 1127 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,439 Speaker 1: for it. I give you just gave me two really 1128 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:10,640 Speaker 1: extreme examples. I said, bron Party or Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson. 1129 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 1: I don't even have to think about that. 1130 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,760 Speaker 2: Would you rather have the brock Perty or Deshaun Watson. 1131 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 1: I'll take brock Party in that just because I will. 1132 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:20,319 Speaker 1: I think I think Deshaun Watson may be done. Like 1133 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,160 Speaker 1: I think that what we saw in Houston's not coming back, 1134 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:26,960 Speaker 1: but I don't think that. I think you just went 1135 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,000 Speaker 1: from two really high extremes to a Deshaun Watson that's 1136 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 1: very much at this point a question mark at best. 1137 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,240 Speaker 2: What about it? Like a brock Party or a Trevor Lawrence. 1138 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:39,799 Speaker 1: I'm still gonna take Trevor, but I do think it's 1139 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:41,359 Speaker 1: we thought. 1140 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 2: I'm not so sure, but I think it's about even 1141 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:45,360 Speaker 2: right now. 1142 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: That's fair. Well, I'm not done with this topic because 1143 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:50,880 Speaker 1: that's a that's a fun way that you just phrased it. 1144 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:52,760 Speaker 1: So we'll do that. Let's go to the Sega first. 1145 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 1: Apparently he's not going to give us the final score 1146 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 1: of USC in Colorado because watching it still on my 1147 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,799 Speaker 1: screen right now. Let's see what else for Steve Pack. 1148 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 5: There we go Pack twelve after the odd button, the 1149 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 5: but the sandwich down, Steve. 1150 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 2: Seaward says, on, oh and hit the yond button. 1151 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 5: Stop throwing our co workers under the bus here talking 1152 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,840 Speaker 5: to you.

I 1174 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 5: believe the Soviets won and the US took the silver. 1175 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:25,240 Speaker 5: But yeah, she's kind of legendary in women's basketball. 1176 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 1: I was born in seventy eight, so you've never. 1177 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 5: Heard of Babe Ruth, never heard of Santy? 1178 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 1: Yes, seriously, well played, well played nineteen.

That is not even with a first round 1220 00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 2: draft pick like Brownie James. How can that be? 1221 00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, just because just because your father is famous, does 1222 00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 1: it necessarily mean. 1223 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 5: Didn't Kareem Junior play at Valparaiso?

But yeah, it happens. 1230 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 5: It doesn't mean that they have to be automatically as. 1231 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 1: A college basketball player.

All right, keep it going, Arnie, 1246 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,560 Speaker 1: keep this whole Brock Party thing going in terms of 1247 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 1: naming quarterbacks that are current starters in the league, and 1248 01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 1: ask me if I'd rather have them or Brock Party, 1249 01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 1: because I'm defended Brock Party a lot this year, and 1250 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: now you're putting me in a position where I'm having 1251 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 1: to kind of slight him because you mentioned Josh Allen 1252 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson, and I'm just like, I mean, do 1253 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 1: I really have to answer this question? 1254 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 2: Well? 1255 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: I mean, do you think there's five percent of football 1256 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 1: fans that would take Brock Party over either one of 1257 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 1: those guys over which Josh Allen or over Lamar Jackson. 1258 01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 2: I think there's a lot that would take him over 1259 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 2: Josh Allen. I think people are fed up with Josh Allen. 1260 01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:41,880 Speaker 2: Matter of fact, I think there's people at you in 1261 01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 2: Buffalo that would say, Jesus, we only had Brock party. 1262 01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 2: I mean, you have to this day. He had some 1263 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 2: really good stats this year. I mean, he put up 1264 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 2: some really really good numbers. There's not too many quarterbacks 1265 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,920 Speaker 2: you'd rather have. You could probably name about three or four. 1266 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 1: Oh, you can't be serious other than what Jalen Hurd 1267 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 1: name fifteen Jalen hurds, right, yeah, probably yeah, Jalen Hurts. 1268 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Jalen Hurt showed some flaws this year, but 1269 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that is Sirianni and not him. 1270 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 1: Uh and just the coordinator is not working out, and 1271 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 1: some other things that were going on. Maybe Burroughs Burrow 1272 01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 1: not maybe for sure Burrow as long as he's healthy, right. 1273 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert, justin Herbert would be one. Two, So there'd 1274 01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 2: be three right. 1275 01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 1: There, Okay, I mean we can keep going. 1276 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 2: I mean maybe Lamar Jackson and there's four Mar Jackson 1277 01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 2: and that, so you're not gonna put Josh Allen there 1278 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:37,600 Speaker 2: for sure, I put him there. So that's four. 1279 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 1: I'm taking Jordan Love over him every day. 1280 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:43,080 Speaker 2: No, No, whoa whoa, whoa, pumped the breaks there, pumped 1281 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 2: the breaks. My friend Jordan Love was not an MVP 1282 01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 2: candidate for most of the year. Jordan Love had a 1283 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 2: good year and he was a pretty good quarterback. 1284 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 1: But liked is better at quarterback than Jordan Love is 1285 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:55,960 Speaker 1: at quarterback. Yeah, I do. I do. 1286 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:58,520 Speaker 2: And plus remember now, uh Bruck pretty I think had 1287 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 2: a harder schedule. Remember it wasn't like that that division 1288 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:05,920 Speaker 2: that Green Bays it is a you know, a world 1289 01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 2: beater now, especially when Minnesota fell apart with injuries to 1290 01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:12,600 Speaker 2: their quarterback and Justin Jefferson went down. I mean, when 1291 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 2: the Lions are the best team there, you know that 1292 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 2: it's really not a great division, especially when the Bears faltered. 1293 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 2: So you know, get pumped breaks there in Jordan Love, 1294 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 2: I still would rather have I read that Brock party, Yes, 1295 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 2: for sure. Matthew Stafford, No, I'm still gonna go with 1296 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 2: Brock party. We're talking about the age Yer situation, and 1297 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 2: Stafford's at the end of the end of his way. 1298 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, but we're talking about right now, Stafford's still got 1299 01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 1: a couple of years. 1300 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,959 Speaker 2: Stafford this year, maybe maybe he's got a couple of years. 1301 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 2: Maybe he doesn't. I'm not so sure about that. I 1302 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 2: know Brock Party's got way more years than that. 1303 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Party over Daniel Jones, Oh absolutely, that's 1304 01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 1: you should be fired for even to suggest together than that. 1305 01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:02,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray at this point, Party has obviously done a 1306 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,680 Speaker 1: lot more, right of course, so you can have that argument. 1307 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:06,520 Speaker 1: I'm taking CJ. Stroud over Brock Party. 1308 01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:08,600 Speaker 2: Okay, there you go. There's the fifth That would be 1309 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 2: the fifth one that I would have on there. Other 1310 01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 2: than that, that's going to wrap it up with any 1311 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 2: other quarterbacks that I'm going to take over. Well, stop it, stop. 1312 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 1: Stop it. 1313 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:21,240 Speaker 2: Please come on. 1314 01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:22,720 Speaker 1: Justin Field. 1315 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 2: I like Justin Fields, but I'm not gonna take him 1316 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,480 Speaker 2: over Brock Party. But I do love Justin Fields. And 1317 01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 2: if i'm some teams like the Giants or whoever, and 1318 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:35,520 Speaker 2: I know they gave you know, Daniel Jones that long 1319 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 2: term contract, but I would figure out how to get 1320 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:43,280 Speaker 2: Justin Field. That's who. And I know he's okay, he's 1321 01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 2: above average. 1322 01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just naming some other guys that started 1323 01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 1: a quarterback this year. There's something again. 1324 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:52,000 Speaker 2: Rather Brock Party than Baker Mayfield. 1325 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:54,000 Speaker 1: I still feel like he's about middle of the road 1326 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:55,400 Speaker 1: in the NFL, Arnie. 1327 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:57,640 Speaker 2: Who brock party, Yes, I don't know you could be 1328 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 2: middle of the road when you're MVP candidate with about 1329 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 2: two weeks left in the regular season. You got your 1330 01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:05,320 Speaker 2: team to the Super Bowl and a lot of people 1331 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 2: didn't believe in you, and you had to fight for 1332 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,720 Speaker 2: your job every stinking week for crying out. 1333 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:11,880 Speaker 1: I don't disagree with that last point at all. I 1334 01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: don't think that needs to be a thing that needs 1335 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 1: to continue to happen. I just think he's a solid player. 1336 01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily call him a franchise player. Our franchise player, 1337 01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:23,200 Speaker 1: Steve Desager will have his extended update on the other side. 1338 01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:25,680 Speaker 1: This is Spanner and Martin here on Fox Sports Radio 1339 01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:34,200 Speaker 1: Live from the tyreq dot com studios along with Arnie Spanner. 1340 01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 1: I'm Jason Martin here on Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Saturday, 1341 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,880 Speaker 1: finishing up hour number two in this slot every Saturday 1342 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:43,720 Speaker 1: night always means the same thing, means we get to 1343 01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:45,680 Speaker 1: chat with our friend Steve de Sager and find out 1344 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:48,480 Speaker 1: all the knowledge that he is here to drop on 1345 01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:50,280 Speaker 1: as Steve take it away. 1346 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:53,680 Speaker 5: And I'm glad you brought up the training camp incident 1347 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 5: with Ann Meyers actually trying out for an NBA team, 1348 01:04:56,920 --> 01:05:00,080 Speaker 5: because let's bring this back to Caitlin Clark. First off, 1349 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 5: I mentioned Anne Meyers is a legend in women's basketball. 1350 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:07,160 Speaker 5: Four time All American at UCLA, and she was the 1351 01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 5: first to have a full ride athletic scholarship to a 1352 01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 5: US university. Women's basketball existed before the NCAA ever sponsored 1353 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,200 Speaker 5: women's basketball, starting in the nineteen eighties. But here you 1354 01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 5: had this legend who got an invite actually signing with 1355 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 5: the Indiana Pacers and got cut in training camp. So 1356 01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:28,920 Speaker 5: let's not go crazy. Young Caitlin Clark in the NBA again. 1357 01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 2: Did she play? Did she play in the games in 1358 01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:31,560 Speaker 2: the preseason game? 1359 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 5: I do not remember in preseason games, no, but at 1360 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 5: camp she was there at what five foot nine something 1361 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 5: like that. So at Caitlin Clark is listed at six 1362 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 5: feet one point fifty five. Luka Donsich is six seven, 1363 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:47,520 Speaker 5: two thirty. So let's just not go to that conversation. 1364 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:52,000 Speaker 5: And Caitlyn Clark, the record she broke is just the 1365 01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:57,640 Speaker 5: NCAA career scoring mark. Women's basketball existed before that. Lynette Woodard, 1366 01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 5: who played not only in the Olympics for the UA. 1367 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:02,280 Speaker 5: But with the Globetrotters, I was gonna say she played 1368 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 5: on a men's team. 1369 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:05,640 Speaker 2: Absolutely, there you go, big boy. 1370 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 1: Wait a second, she played with I'm not entertaining the. 1371 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:12,440 Speaker 2: Globe with the Globetrotters. Yet, there you go. 1372 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, she entertained with the Globetrotter. 1373 01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 1: She was on the roster. 1374 01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:20,520 Speaker 5: She toured with the Globe Trotter. How about that. But 1375 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 5: she even came out with the statement the night a 1376 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,959 Speaker 5: couple of nights ago when the NCAA record was broke, 1377 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:29,440 Speaker 5: because she still has the women's basketball collegiate scoring record. 1378 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:33,800 Speaker 5: She said, very proud of my record and congratulations to Caitlin. 1379 01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:37,280 Speaker 5: Back then, women's players in college used a larger basketball 1380 01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 5: than now. We did not have the three point line, 1381 01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:42,200 Speaker 5: et cetera. But as far as we get to the 1382 01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame, now, the other item for this weekend, 1383 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,120 Speaker 5: all Star Weekend, as not just went on tonight or 1384 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:50,080 Speaker 5: the All Star Exhibition tomorrow night. We found out yesterday 1385 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:53,680 Speaker 5: the Basketball Hall of Fame finalists. We'll get the actual 1386 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,960 Speaker 5: class of twenty twenty four at the final four April 1387 01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,600 Speaker 5: to sixth. Then shrinement will be in mid August. But 1388 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:02,400 Speaker 5: Jerry West is up for the Hall of Fame. I'll 1389 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:08,320 Speaker 5: get to that explanation. Yeah, yeah, in a different capacity exactly. 1390 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,640 Speaker 5: But Chauncey Billips is up for the Hall of Fame 1391 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 5: Finals MVP twenty years ago with the Pistons fifteen points 1392 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 5: a game in his career. What I remember most is 1393 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:19,800 Speaker 5: his great free throwing nearly ninety percent from the stripe 1394 01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 5: for his career, and that means that in a Pistons game, 1395 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 5: and they had some very good teams, the ball would 1396 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:28,400 Speaker 5: just be in Billip's hand at the end and you 1397 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:30,520 Speaker 5: couldn't catch up because he would hit the free throws 1398 01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:32,920 Speaker 5: when you would foil him on purpose. Vince Carter was 1399 01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 5: a first time eligible. He's a finalist for the Hall 1400 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:37,800 Speaker 5: of Fame. As a starter in the league, he was 1401 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,920 Speaker 5: twenty one points a game. Michael Cooper from the Showtime 1402 01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:43,320 Speaker 5: Lakers is still up for the Hall again this year. 1403 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:46,440 Speaker 5: He had a twelve year career, eight times on an 1404 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 5: all defensive team, and. 1405 01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be defense that gets some men. 1406 01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,840 Speaker 2: He doesn't have enough offensive game exactly exactly. And he 1407 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 2: was a three point shooter and a good one then, 1408 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 2: but they just didn't hoist the night good back then. 1409 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 2: Like they do now. 1410 01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:00,760 Speaker 5: Walter Davis is up for the Halls, still the Sun's 1411 01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:04,240 Speaker 5: all toav leading scorer. His number is retired. Coach Bo 1412 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 5: Ryan from Wisconsin is up for the Hall of Fame. 1413 01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 5: He was a collegiate coach in the state of Wisconsin 1414 01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:13,480 Speaker 5: for over thirty years. From LSU women's hoops. Simona Augustus 1415 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 5: three straight final fours and a long WNBA career, She's 1416 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:18,920 Speaker 5: up for the Hall. Dick Barnett, who played for the 1417 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:23,560 Speaker 5: Knicks and others. Michelle Tims from Australia's women's basketball team, 1418 01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:27,800 Speaker 5: and Jerry West and Doug Collins are up as contributors. 1419 01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:30,559 Speaker 5: So for Collins it would be the broadcasting as well 1420 01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:32,680 Speaker 5: as the coaching, not just playing and being on the 1421 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:36,160 Speaker 5: Olympic team in seventy two. Jerry West is long ago 1422 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:39,439 Speaker 5: enshrined as a player, one of the legends of the NBA. 1423 01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:42,600 Speaker 5: He got into the Hall in nineteen eighty. But of 1424 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 5: course he might be the best general manager you and 1425 01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:48,679 Speaker 5: I have ever seen, drafting Magic Johnson and James Worthy 1426 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 5: the draft a trade for Kobe Bryant. The same summer, 1427 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 5: he signed Shaquille O'Neal and drafted Derek Fisher and then 1428 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:57,479 Speaker 5: he went to Golden State and won a couple of 1429 01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:00,880 Speaker 5: titles and was GM of Memphis as well. Jerry West 1430 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 5: up as a contributor. The actual All Star Game is 1431 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:07,880 Speaker 5: Sunday night in Indianapolis.

You know, like I said when 1455 01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:25,720 Speaker 2: we start off the show, Jason, the NBA All Star 1456 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:27,920 Speaker 2: Game used to be much CTV, and I think the 1457 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 2: difference is is there was more hall of famers, more 1458 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:35,800 Speaker 2: recognizable names, better players, took it more seriously. They played 1459 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,360 Speaker 2: a little defense. They're going back to the East West. 1460 01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,240 Speaker 2: But it used to be you know, must watch TV, 1461 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:44,439 Speaker 2: appointment television. It's no longer that at all. You'll be 1462 01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 2: lucky if you even have it on as you're doing 1463 01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 2: errands or since at night you'll probably be getting ready 1464 01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 2: for sleep or something. Yeah. 1465 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:52,840 Speaker 1: Some people, well, I mean, like I said, I'll watch 1466 01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, but tomorrow I'll watch more than usual because 1467 01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 1: I'll be on Monday, just like you're right, because you're 1468 01:10:57,840 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 1: on Sunday night. 1469 01:10:58,960 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 2: Right. 1470 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,960 Speaker 1: If I didn't have like a responsibility the next day, yeah, 1471 01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 1: I'd probably just tune in too now and then come 1472 01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:09,480 Speaker 1: back for the finish. 1473 01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 2: You'd be out sixty minutes game. You'd be sixty minutes 1474 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:13,280 Speaker 2: to start the Sunday night off. 1475 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:16,200 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I mean it'd be something else. Speaking 1476 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:18,479 Speaker 1: of sixty minutes, all right, So here's an interesting topic. 1477 01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 1: This is not something I we were gonna get to this. 1478 01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:23,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if we'd lead an hour with it, 1479 01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:25,160 Speaker 1: but because you mentioned sixty minutes, I don't want to 1480 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:30,280 Speaker 1: lose this CBS, Okay, since sixty minutes is an institution network, 1481 01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:33,800 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Tony Romo for a second. Sure, So 1482 01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 1: Tony Romo is just getting lambastard for not being very 1483 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,200 Speaker 1: good at his job anymore, right, and in the Super 1484 01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:44,479 Speaker 1: Bowl there's a lot of criticism coming out of that. 1485 01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:48,679 Speaker 1: There's a Pizza Awful announcing about CBS needing to replace 1486 01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:51,880 Speaker 1: him right now, and there's Greg Olsen sitting there getting 1487 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 1: pushed to the side for Tom Brady, who we don't 1488 01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 1: know if he's going to be any good, but we 1489 01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:59,240 Speaker 1: know Greg Olsen is at least I think he's great. 1490 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,840 Speaker 1: Will say this, though, I think you're probably on the 1491 01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,240 Speaker 1: opposite side is me, because that's usually the way it is. 1492 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:09,200 Speaker 1: But I still don't. I don't think Tony Romo is 1493 01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:11,160 Speaker 1: that bad, and I actually thought he was pretty good 1494 01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. But I'll tell you all the 1495 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:20,759 Speaker 1: lead color analysts, all of them, Aikman, Collinsworth, Romo Olson. 1496 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:25,200 Speaker 1: If you read just comments from people that are like 1497 01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:27,559 Speaker 1: commenting live during games, like if you're on the Athletic 1498 01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:29,320 Speaker 1: and you're on like a live thread during the game 1499 01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: or something like that, and you're watching what everybody is saying, 1500 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:38,280 Speaker 1: they hate them all all the worst of all time. 1501 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:41,680 Speaker 2: Herbstreet gets the more hate mail than anybody out there. 1502 01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 2: I mean, that guy had to actually leave his house 1503 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 2: and move to another state because he could. He couldn't 1504 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 2: take it anymore. 1505 01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 1: My hometown, I'm not. 1506 01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 2: My hometown's right here in Nashville, right right. I don't 1507 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:57,200 Speaker 2: understand how Tony Robot went from great to just horrible, unlistenable. 1508 01:12:57,800 --> 01:12:59,200 Speaker 1: Is that the way you feel about him? 1509 01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:01,360 Speaker 2: No? I don't either. Yeah, I don't feel like that 1510 01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:04,160 Speaker 2: way at all. He doesn't look Announcers don't bother me 1511 01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 2: one way or the other. Okay, even if it's with 1512 01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 2: my Arizona Wildcats who have been in March madness. You 1513 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:13,479 Speaker 2: have the national announcers who maybe have not seen their 1514 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:16,120 Speaker 2: games as much as me. It doesn't bother me. I'm 1515 01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:19,200 Speaker 2: wrapped up into the game. I'm so wrapped up into 1516 01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:21,479 Speaker 2: the game. I don't have time to point out their 1517 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:25,400 Speaker 2: mistakes or anything like that. And I've said this before 1518 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:29,559 Speaker 2: played by play announcers and color commentators. I'm not tuning 1519 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:32,960 Speaker 2: into the game, so listen to them. There's not what 1520 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:36,679 Speaker 2: I can't remember any game that I wouldn't tune into 1521 01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:38,920 Speaker 2: and say, uh, I'm I guess I'm not watching it 1522 01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:42,519 Speaker 2: now because Tony Romo's the analyst, So I guess I'm 1523 01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:45,120 Speaker 2: gonna miss the game that's never happened. 1524 01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:45,559 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1525 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:49,280 Speaker 1: Never. I'm different in that if there is a certain 1526 01:13:49,360 --> 01:13:52,000 Speaker 1: crew calling a game that I wasn't as interested in, 1527 01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm more likely to watch if it's a crew I like. 1528 01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:57,480 Speaker 1: I do see it from that perspective. There are broadcasters 1529 01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:59,280 Speaker 1: that I like better than others. There are teams I 1530 01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 1: think the chemistry is better. I don't know that Nance 1531 01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 1: and Romo have great chemistry. There's sometimes they kind of 1532 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 1: don't mix, particularly Roll and I will agree that the 1533 01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:11,759 Speaker 1: first season of Romo is different than now, just because 1534 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:13,160 Speaker 1: when it was that new and it felt like he 1535 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:15,519 Speaker 1: was calling out every single play before the fact, it 1536 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 1: was just unique and we hadn't seen it before. And 1537 01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:22,080 Speaker 1: now he's all right. So one of the critiques is 1538 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:24,280 Speaker 1: now he just kind of does a bunch of words 1539 01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:26,400 Speaker 1: out and he starts screaming and yelling in terms of 1540 01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 1: just oh he loves this and it's football and all this. 1541 01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think he's that positive. I mean, you 1542 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,800 Speaker 1: want to give that criticism to somebody, Give it to 1543 01:14:33,880 --> 01:14:34,840 Speaker 1: John Gruden. 1544 01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:36,960 Speaker 2: Give it to Dick Vite that football did Dick Vital 1545 01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:40,360 Speaker 2: doesn't scream and yet be a pay day bear baby. 1546 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 1: I mean, like one of the critiques on Romo in 1547 01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:44,559 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, and I don't necessarily think this one 1548 01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:47,919 Speaker 1: was incorrect, is he kind of stepped all over Nance's 1549 01:14:47,920 --> 01:14:50,479 Speaker 1: call at the end of that game, like he didn't 1550 01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:54,639 Speaker 1: need to interject for twenty or twenty five seconds. Let 1551 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:58,800 Speaker 1: Nance actually finish telling the story of homes scoring right 1552 01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:00,800 Speaker 1: there and that being the Super Bowl as opposed to 1553 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:02,920 Speaker 1: just kind of not being able to restrain himself. But 1554 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:04,040 Speaker 1: that's just to Tony Romo. 1555 01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:05,920 Speaker 2: Is that a big deal? Is that a big deal? 1556 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:07,519 Speaker 1: Apparently it was to a lot of people. It didn't 1557 01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 1: bother me that much, but I could at least understand 1558 01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 1: that critique. I don't understand that he's an unlistenable thing. 1559 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:16,360 Speaker 1: Like I just I don't get it. Are there people 1560 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,639 Speaker 1: I like better than Romo at the job at this stage? Yes, 1561 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:21,240 Speaker 1: I like Olsen better. I like Todd Blacklitch better. There 1562 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:23,800 Speaker 1: are people that I like better. But I don't think 1563 01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:27,280 Speaker 1: Tony Romo is It's subjective, of course, but I don't 1564 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:28,759 Speaker 1: think he's bad at the job. 1565 01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 2: What I never really understood is, and this is not 1566 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:34,920 Speaker 2: a knock against Tony Romo, God bless him forgetting what 1567 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,120 Speaker 2: you can. I never understood why you go, well, let's 1568 01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 2: give him about eighteen million a year to call some 1569 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,920 Speaker 2: football games. No, no, Well. 1570 01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 1: There was kind of an explosion at that point. That's 1571 01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:47,920 Speaker 1: when Herb Street and Al Michael's got their big deal, 1572 01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:52,040 Speaker 1: and you saw Buck and Eggman move from Fox to 1573 01:15:52,800 --> 01:15:56,160 Speaker 1: ESPN and ABC to take over Monday night football, and 1574 01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 1: you had the money being thrown at the Mannings to 1575 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:01,439 Speaker 1: do the Manning cast like it was almost like a trend. 1576 01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:03,840 Speaker 1: It was like the draft where all of a sudden, 1577 01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 1: a bunch of tight ends start going in your fantasy draft, 1578 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:09,120 Speaker 1: and you immediately Snake won two rounds before you probably 1579 01:16:09,120 --> 01:16:11,600 Speaker 1: should have, and you end up boguarding your screwing up 1580 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,479 Speaker 1: your team for the rest of the year. It's kind 1581 01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:16,240 Speaker 1: of similar. It just felt like we got to go 1582 01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 1: get our guy. It's like, not really, I don't know 1583 01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 1: that you really had to. I think that I don't 1584 01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:26,880 Speaker 1: know why you would feel the need to replace Romo 1585 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:30,479 Speaker 1: unless there was some like dramatic issue with him and Nance. 1586 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,400 Speaker 1: I did see the suggestion of putting him in the 1587 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,479 Speaker 1: studio because they're probably going to let a couple of 1588 01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:37,640 Speaker 1: these analysts go because all their contracts are about to 1589 01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:39,679 Speaker 1: come up, and maybe you put him in the studio 1590 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:43,080 Speaker 1: environment where he can just be more emotional and all 1591 01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 1: of that kind of thing. But I don't know. And 1592 01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:48,960 Speaker 1: if Olsen is unhappy and Olsen wants to be top 1593 01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 1: dog and you want to pair him number one on CBS, 1594 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 1: I could see that. I could, But I don't think 1595 01:16:55,360 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 1: Romo needs to be replaced. He's probably my second faceavorite analysts. No, 1596 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 1: he doesn't love the NFL guys on the CBS Charles 1597 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:04,240 Speaker 1: Davis being. 1598 01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:06,840 Speaker 2: No, he's not unlistenable like people want to make it 1599 01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:10,160 Speaker 2: out to be. Who does sense which former coach said 1600 01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 2: that he wants to vomb and every time he hears 1601 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 2: Tony Romo. So was that Charlie Whiss? Is that who 1602 01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,640 Speaker 2: said that? Yeah, I mean I didn't know that, But 1603 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:21,759 Speaker 2: it's just taking it too far on that. No, he doesn't. 1604 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:24,080 Speaker 2: Maybe there's a few things you want him to clean up, 1605 01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:27,280 Speaker 2: so be it. But again, I even enjoy his telcasts. 1606 01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:29,719 Speaker 2: So I don't know what everybody's making a big stink about. 1607 01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:32,760 Speaker 2: I don't let that bother me. It seems like energy. 1608 01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it just seems like he's he's kind of 1609 01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:37,559 Speaker 1: a kid in terms of like his energy, Like there's 1610 01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:40,360 Speaker 1: just he loves the game and he gets excited about 1611 01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 1: it in the moment. Like I'd much rather hear Tony 1612 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:47,479 Speaker 1: Romo than Tony Dungee. I love, but Tony Dungee puts 1613 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:49,960 Speaker 1: you to sleep, because that's just his demeanor. And it's 1614 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:53,120 Speaker 1: not even because hey, I actually think that Tony or 1615 01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:56,760 Speaker 1: Tony dungeye is showing all the emotion he has, Like 1616 01:17:56,840 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 1: I think he's super I think he loves football and 1617 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 1: he's super into it. He's just not a he's not 1618 01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:03,920 Speaker 1: a dynamic community. 1619 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:05,080 Speaker 2: You like Greg Olsen, though you think. 1620 01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:06,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Greg Olson's phenomenal. 1621 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:08,599 Speaker 2: I like him, but he's got a dry sense of humor. 1622 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 2: But I do like him. I think he's he's good. 1623 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,599 Speaker 2: I'm curious to see what's gonna end up with him 1624 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:13,360 Speaker 2: next year, you know. 1625 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:15,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean again, he's getting kind of pushed to 1626 01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 1: this time. I have no idea. I think that's a 1627 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:21,880 Speaker 1: fair question to ask. I think that chance he could be, 1628 01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:24,360 Speaker 1: but it's not. It's certainly no given. 1629 01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:28,800 Speaker 2: Well, he better be given some real criticism, criticism. 1630 01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:31,519 Speaker 1: I think you will. I definitely think you will. I 1631 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:33,080 Speaker 1: don't think because there are a lot of people that 1632 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 1: would love to see him fail, I don't. I don't 1633 01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,320 Speaker 1: consider myself one of those at all. I hope he's great. 1634 01:18:37,479 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 1: I want to see I want his insight to be 1635 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:43,120 Speaker 1: every bit as good as it could be based on 1636 01:18:43,200 --> 01:18:45,439 Speaker 1: his football IQ and how much time he's spent around 1637 01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 1: the game in the minutia and the details and all 1638 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,599 Speaker 1: of that kind of stuff. I think that Fox never 1639 01:18:50,720 --> 01:18:53,600 Speaker 1: thought Greg Olsen was gonna be that good, right, and 1640 01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:55,799 Speaker 1: that they give replace him now They've got a problem 1641 01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 1: because of that, because moving Olsen to the B crew, 1642 01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 1: while that's still to be exactly Olsen absolutely belongs with 1643 01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:07,519 Speaker 1: the number one team somewhere, and I bet you the 1644 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:10,120 Speaker 1: first guy that knows that is Greg Olsen at this point, 1645 01:19:10,400 --> 01:19:13,240 Speaker 1: as is his agent. And the difference I think in 1646 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 1: money is something like seven million a year. He's to 1647 01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: three mil. 1648 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:20,080 Speaker 2: How do you know he's not gonna steak next year? 1649 01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 2: Like everybody's Greg Olsen. Everybody made a big stick about 1650 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:27,120 Speaker 2: Tony Romo going down in a year. Do you how 1651 01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:28,960 Speaker 2: come you can't say the same thing about Greg Olsen? 1652 01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:30,639 Speaker 1: Well, I guess it has to do with the fact 1653 01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:33,080 Speaker 1: that a lot of what people liked about Tony Romo 1654 01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:35,040 Speaker 1: in the first year, at least the ones that have 1655 01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:37,640 Speaker 1: kind of fallen off with him, a lot of what 1656 01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 1: they liked was kind of gimmicky. It wasn't as much 1657 01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:46,800 Speaker 1: just the the moment to moment announcing prowess or analysis. 1658 01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:50,519 Speaker 1: It was the Nostradamus stuff. 1659 01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,559 Speaker 2: If you were the snap what do you want from 1660 01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:53,559 Speaker 2: your color analyst? 1661 01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:54,360 Speaker 1: What do you want ja? 1662 01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:55,600 Speaker 2: As soon as you're listening. 1663 01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 1: To the good voice, I want you to be able 1664 01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:02,160 Speaker 1: to really tell me what is happening, not just I 1665 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,000 Speaker 1: mean the play by play guy. We know what the 1666 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:05,880 Speaker 1: play by play guy does well what does the color 1667 01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:09,240 Speaker 1: guy do well? He adds color to the broadcast. He 1668 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:12,040 Speaker 1: adds the nuts and bolts, the details, the things that 1669 01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:15,640 Speaker 1: the layperson wouldn't necessarily see in the moment. He's the 1670 01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:17,760 Speaker 1: one that has the perfect spot or next to him 1671 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 1: to say, hey, no, actually, this is the guy that 1672 01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:22,439 Speaker 1: was probably off side say that before we even see 1673 01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:24,560 Speaker 1: the replay, so it looks like you knew it beforehand. 1674 01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:27,040 Speaker 1: Like the guy that can look at the field and 1675 01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:30,160 Speaker 1: understand things, and they can pick up on things by 1676 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:35,559 Speaker 1: going to practice during the week, to the well animation 1677 01:20:35,680 --> 01:20:38,000 Speaker 1: to what animation, to what extent. I don't want that 1678 01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:40,080 Speaker 1: to be the only thing you bring to the table. 1679 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:44,120 Speaker 1: I mean, the greatest he wasn't probably the greatest at 1680 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:46,280 Speaker 1: breaking down every play that we ever saw. But the 1681 01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:48,240 Speaker 1: guy that had the greatest animation ever. 1682 01:20:48,240 --> 01:20:52,800 Speaker 2: Was Madden, of course, and you loved him and and 1683 01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 2: people getting upset about it. 1684 01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:55,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was the personality of it. I 1685 01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:59,920 Speaker 1: also think I don't know why this is because he's 1686 01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 1: really ever done anything to make you dislike him. I 1687 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:04,679 Speaker 1: just think a lot of people were polarized with Tony 1688 01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:08,200 Speaker 1: Romo because he's a Cowboys quarterback, right, And I think 1689 01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:10,320 Speaker 1: that that played into it too. I think that also 1690 01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:13,200 Speaker 1: plays into it a little bit with Aikman. I think 1691 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:14,760 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people that love to hate 1692 01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:17,280 Speaker 1: on Cowboys players, especially when they're in the booth, and 1693 01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:20,600 Speaker 1: especially when they were quarterbacks. And Romo, a lot of 1694 01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:23,720 Speaker 1: people always wanted to talk about what he was not 1695 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:27,639 Speaker 1: on the field, and how he was overrated and all 1696 01:21:27,760 --> 01:21:31,000 Speaker 1: this kind of stuff, even he never really did anything wrong, 1697 01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:34,800 Speaker 1: he never said anything wrong. But I think that's part 1698 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:37,000 Speaker 1: of it too. I think there's just there's something about 1699 01:21:37,160 --> 01:21:39,920 Speaker 1: Romo being a cowboy and the life of success that 1700 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,360 Speaker 1: he found in the playoffs and all this. But I 1701 01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:48,200 Speaker 1: just didn't understand it. I didn't understand it. Don't understand 1702 01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,560 Speaker 1: why there is now so much critique over Tony Romo 1703 01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:56,639 Speaker 1: when I think that, I just do you when you said, 1704 01:21:56,640 --> 01:21:58,800 Speaker 1: what do you want a color guy? I think that's 1705 01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:01,120 Speaker 1: the question to ask all these people, because I don't 1706 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:03,680 Speaker 1: think they have an answer. I think they're just consistently 1707 01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:05,000 Speaker 1: gonna want what they don't have. 1708 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:07,000 Speaker 2: Well, I tell you what I want. I want Tom 1709 01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:10,320 Speaker 2: Brady when I what he's doing the game, going watch this. 1710 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:13,680 Speaker 2: He's known for throwing interceptions to the fourth watch him 1711 01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:17,080 Speaker 2: choke this one interception. Of course, we'll never give him 1712 01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:20,479 Speaker 2: something like that, but you better be start right honest 1713 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:23,320 Speaker 2: and and tell us how Yeah, that's why this guy 1714 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:25,240 Speaker 2: is never going to lead this team through the playoffs, 1715 01:22:25,280 --> 01:22:26,439 Speaker 2: are or subject to that. 1716 01:22:26,439 --> 01:22:30,320 Speaker 1: I well, it's not even about I don't need him 1717 01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 1: to be Johnny Miller, you know, I just need him 1718 01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:36,679 Speaker 1: to be real and the problem and now that he's 1719 01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:38,840 Speaker 1: passed his career, like is he gonna get black ball 1720 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:41,120 Speaker 1: by organizations at this point? I mean he's not coming back, 1721 01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:44,240 Speaker 1: so it didn't matter. But the thing that the one 1722 01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:47,200 Speaker 1: color guy that I could not stand in the NFL 1723 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:51,920 Speaker 1: was John Gruden. And the reason why is because everything 1724 01:22:51,960 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 1: he saw was the greatest thing. He every quarterback, that quarterback, 1725 01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:02,920 Speaker 1: that that is what had to go. Like that drove 1726 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:06,639 Speaker 1: me insane. I want you to tell me what's happening, 1727 01:23:07,160 --> 01:23:11,280 Speaker 1: positive and negative. I want you to let me in 1728 01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:14,439 Speaker 1: on what you're observing. I don't need you to blow 1729 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:16,479 Speaker 1: smoke because you're trying to get back into the Oh. 1730 01:23:16,520 --> 01:23:20,240 Speaker 2: He was the king to me, it was unlistenable. 1731 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:24,559 Speaker 1: It drove me. I give you, yes, And I don't 1732 01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:28,040 Speaker 1: think Roma like for instance, like Roma is excitable, but 1733 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:30,799 Speaker 1: Romo will come out and criticize some things that are happening, 1734 01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:33,719 Speaker 1: and he did it during this postseason, and I actually 1735 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:35,640 Speaker 1: thought you did very well in the Super Bowl. I 1736 01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:38,280 Speaker 1: enjoyed that broadcast. I thought that the Joints job, and 1737 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 1: I thought Romo had a good night personally Joys in 1738 01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:41,880 Speaker 1: the minority, but I. 1739 01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 2: Like the Manning cast. You enjoy something like that or what. 1740 01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 1: It's not for me like, I'll tune into it. And 1741 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:50,120 Speaker 1: I love Peyton and Elis Panter as much as the 1742 01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:52,840 Speaker 1: next guy. I kind of just want to watch the game. 1743 01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:57,520 Speaker 1: So when they're breaking down the x's and o's, it's phenomenal, 1744 01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:00,000 Speaker 1: Like when they're letting you in and you see them 1745 01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:02,280 Speaker 1: of both of those two guys, and they're talking about 1746 01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:04,120 Speaker 1: what they're seeing, and they're talking about the quarterbacks and 1747 01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 1: the receivers and all these things, and the nuance of 1748 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:08,479 Speaker 1: the game is great. When they bring on the guests, 1749 01:24:08,479 --> 01:24:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm out. I just don't care if something is newsworthy 1750 01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 1: they get said during that timeframe. I can see it 1751 01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:16,720 Speaker 1: later because it's going to be plastered all over the 1752 01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,760 Speaker 1: website and all over everywhere else. I just want to 1753 01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:21,720 Speaker 1: watch Joe and Troy call the game. I want to 1754 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:24,400 Speaker 1: watch the football game because that's why I'm there. That's 1755 01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:27,200 Speaker 1: like Mark Walbers Show's stuff is just not not important. 1756 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 2: Who wouldn't even talk while he was on the show. 1757 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:30,720 Speaker 2: He was watching the game, you. 1758 01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,720 Speaker 1: Know, yeah, right exactly, And I think that's real and 1759 01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 1: that's fine. I like that they cared enough in that moment. 1760 01:24:37,600 --> 01:24:39,839 Speaker 1: But when they're breaking down the game, it's it's awesome. 1761 01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:41,880 Speaker 1: The problem is a lot of the time they're not, 1762 01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:45,200 Speaker 1: and so you just kind of have to pick and choose. 1763 01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:46,880 Speaker 1: And for me, it's just I just stick with the 1764 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,160 Speaker 1: main broadcast for the most part, and I'll catch up 1765 01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:50,880 Speaker 1: on a highlight or two or something like that on 1766 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:53,759 Speaker 1: the website after the fact.

We haven't mentioned the Warriors Lakers thing at all. 1780 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:35,840 Speaker 2: No, not at all, but maybe we'll do that afterwards. 1781 01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:37,519 Speaker 1: We'll do that after the break. As a matter of fact, 1782 01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:42,880 Speaker 1: the bombshell that some organization placed a phone call to 1783 01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 1: another organization. Is this that big a deal? We'll discuss 1784 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:50,000 Speaker 1: it is. Spanner and Martin here on Fox Sports Radio. 1785 01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:56,439 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Fox Sports Saturday.

Like, 1791 01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:21,519 Speaker 1: I maybe I'm naive, but when I saw a lot 1792 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:25,760 Speaker 1: of people writing, I saw Zach Looe, for instance, who 1793 01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:28,720 Speaker 1: I really like at ESPN, say, this is just an 1794 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 1: unprecedented incredible that this phone call would have been placed. 1795 01:26:33,520 --> 01:26:35,920 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm crazy. I just assume that a lot of 1796 01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 1: phone calls are placed by a lot of executives about 1797 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 1: big time things that we never find out about. We 1798 01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:44,920 Speaker 1: found out about this one. But was it like that 1799 01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:47,920 Speaker 1: much of a shocker that somebody might have called the 1800 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,680 Speaker 1: Lakers just to make sure. Just don't think I don't know, 1801 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:53,400 Speaker 1: like what's wrong with making the phone call. 1802 01:26:53,520 --> 01:26:55,240 Speaker 2: I don't think it was that much of a shocker. 1803 01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:58,880 Speaker 2: What was shocking to me is that it felt like 1804 01:26:58,920 --> 01:27:00,320 Speaker 2: it got to the point that the it was some 1805 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:05,440 Speaker 2: seriousness where you know, you have like owners and presidents 1806 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:08,680 Speaker 2: and gms. It felt like there was some pretty important 1807 01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:12,040 Speaker 2: people in that meeting, you know what I mean. And 1808 01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:15,880 Speaker 2: of course, you know two of the people, one in 1809 01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 2: for the Lakers and one for the Warriors. Actually we 1810 01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:21,719 Speaker 2: all went to high school together, so Genie and Steve Kerr. 1811 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:24,479 Speaker 2: So maybe you felt that there was maybe there's a 1812 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:29,519 Speaker 2: comfort level there also in that situation. So that's the 1813 01:27:29,640 --> 01:27:32,639 Speaker 2: part that was surprising to me, is that it felt 1814 01:27:32,680 --> 01:27:35,679 Speaker 2: like it was a really strong rumor they were trying 1815 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:36,840 Speaker 2: to make this thing work out. 1816 01:27:37,040 --> 01:27:38,559 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe they were just friendly enough they were 1817 01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:41,360 Speaker 1: talking about. But I mean you had I guess you 1818 01:27:41,400 --> 01:27:43,599 Speaker 1: had lakeup call Bus, and Bus was just like, yeah, 1819 01:27:43,640 --> 01:27:46,280 Speaker 1: you need to talk to Clutch, you need to talk 1820 01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 1: to Rich Paul. So they called Rich Paul, and then 1821 01:27:48,479 --> 01:27:51,120 Speaker 1: of course Rich Paul pretty much said Lebron's not going anywhere. 1822 01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:53,000 Speaker 1: He's not interested in being traded, and that was the 1823 01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:56,800 Speaker 1: end of that. I guess it's not that I thought 1824 01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:59,320 Speaker 1: it was nothing at all. It just kind of it 1825 01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:03,439 Speaker 1: didn't seem like this seismic change the way it was 1826 01:28:03,479 --> 01:28:05,479 Speaker 1: written about. Maybe there just wasn't that much to talk 1827 01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:08,000 Speaker 1: about this week, right, And so a lot of people 1828 01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:11,800 Speaker 1: overdid it or I understand Lebron's gonna generate eyeballs, and 1829 01:28:11,840 --> 01:28:14,160 Speaker 1: so you write something about Lebron, I mean I read it, 1830 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:18,599 Speaker 1: but I just had it happened, what do you How 1831 01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:20,760 Speaker 1: big a deal would it have benefit? Had happened? Pretty big? 1832 01:28:21,120 --> 01:28:22,760 Speaker 2: What would they right? It would have been a big 1833 01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:25,439 Speaker 2: thing media wise, But what would they have to give up? 1834 01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:28,720 Speaker 2: And how would that have affected the team? And would 1835 01:28:28,920 --> 01:28:31,320 Speaker 2: Lebron been able and Steph Curry able to go ahead 1836 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:34,679 Speaker 2: and propel them up the ranks? There they weren't gonna 1837 01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:37,479 Speaker 2: win a championship even with Steph Curry and Lebron, so 1838 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:40,040 Speaker 2: forget about that. That's probably why they didn't make the 1839 01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 2: deal anyway. Present it wasn't gonna make much of a 1840 01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:45,559 Speaker 2: difference anyway. Maybe they climb a few spots, but I 1841 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:48,640 Speaker 2: doubt they even catch Sacramento even if they made the 1842 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:49,400 Speaker 2: trade for Lebron. 1843 01:28:49,479 --> 01:28:51,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think you're probably right. I think that. 1844 01:28:52,080 --> 01:28:54,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it would have been a short term attempt, 1845 01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:57,080 Speaker 1: but it doesn't seem like that would have been enough. 1846 01:28:57,120 --> 01:29:01,880 Speaker 1: And yes, it appears as the Warriors have kind of 1847 01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:06,559 Speaker 1: looked ahead, right, they're looking towards like a Kaming of future, 1848 01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:08,479 Speaker 1: and a couple of these young guys they probably would 1849 01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:11,200 Speaker 1: have had to get rid of with some picks in 1850 01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:14,439 Speaker 1: order to make this happen in the first place, probably 1851 01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:16,320 Speaker 1: not to win a championship. Yet it would have been 1852 01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 1: fun to watch, But I don't know that you wager 1853 01:29:19,640 --> 01:29:22,559 Speaker 1: the future for something that would have to This thing 1854 01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 1: would have to happen immediately, well in terms of them winning, 1855 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 1: and it just I don't think there would have been 1856 01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:27,679 Speaker 1: enough either. 1857 01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:30,880 Speaker 2: I think think about the ages here. You know, how 1858 01:29:30,960 --> 01:29:33,080 Speaker 2: many more years did Steph Curry have around? You know, 1859 01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:35,719 Speaker 2: there's not going to go through a whole rebuilding process there. 1860 01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:37,519 Speaker 2: What would they have done with Klay tops? I think 1861 01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:39,439 Speaker 2: Klay would have loved the gone to the lagas of 1862 01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:41,479 Speaker 2: if you was part of the trade out there, and 1863 01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:44,240 Speaker 2: maybe this trade was made as much for Steve Kerr 1864 01:29:44,280 --> 01:29:46,400 Speaker 2: for what was going to happen. How many more years 1865 01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:48,400 Speaker 2: is Kerkr going to be the head coach of Golden State? 1866 01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:51,639 Speaker 2: I could see him wanting to step on down after 1867 01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:52,680 Speaker 2: maybe one more year. 1868 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:56,360 Speaker 1: Well, it depends, right, It depends on how difficult it is. 1869 01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,680 Speaker 1: It's a lot easier to stick around when you're winning, right, 1870 01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:03,160 Speaker 1: I mean, Andy Reid could coach for another decade if 1871 01:30:03,160 --> 01:30:06,040 Speaker 1: they keep winning, And that's probably why he might because 1872 01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:08,519 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think that's going to change anytime soon. 1873 01:30:08,600 --> 01:30:12,759 Speaker 1: But if the Warriors are going through a difficult rebuild, yeah, 1874 01:30:12,760 --> 01:30:14,599 Speaker 1: you see Steve Kerr walking away. It's the same thing 1875 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:17,559 Speaker 1: with McVeigh, right, like McVeigh. There's always a talk of 1876 01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:19,840 Speaker 1: McVeigh stepping away. He's so young, he could come back. 1877 01:30:20,160 --> 01:30:21,920 Speaker 1: Does he want to be part of a rebuild? Well, 1878 01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:23,960 Speaker 1: the Rams kind of got their ahead of schedule. He's 1879 01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 1: really smart. But they also drafted pukin Nakua, and now 1880 01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:29,960 Speaker 1: they have this offense that's doing really, really well. They 1881 01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:32,400 Speaker 1: found a little bit at the running back position. Stafford 1882 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:35,719 Speaker 1: looked re energized. They look like they could be good 1883 01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:39,120 Speaker 1: again next year. So now he shut down those rumors 1884 01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:43,280 Speaker 1: really fast. If they were four and twelve, that would 1885 01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:45,599 Speaker 1: be a different discussion. So I think that the Steve 1886 01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:49,640 Speaker 1: Kerr point is right. If they are struggling, and I 1887 01:30:49,640 --> 01:30:51,439 Speaker 1: don't know that it would be I wouldn't put a 1888 01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:54,720 Speaker 1: lot of to blame on him. But eventually there is 1889 01:30:54,800 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 1: going to have to be some kind of a massive rebuild, 1890 01:30:56,960 --> 01:30:59,280 Speaker 1: and I think that he already knows, as do they. 1891 01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 1: Some of the guys they already have in house are 1892 01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:04,400 Speaker 1: gonna be key to that rebuild. Now, the one that 1893 01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:08,040 Speaker 1: did find interesting once Draymond did give his blessing Apparently. 1894 01:31:07,760 --> 01:31:09,400 Speaker 2: Of course, he wanted to get one brought up there 1895 01:31:09,439 --> 01:31:11,320 Speaker 2: By the way, Lebron wants to play with his son, 1896 01:31:11,360 --> 01:31:14,439 Speaker 2: and that's probably best achieve with the Los Angeles Sakers, 1897 01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:15,639 Speaker 2: not the Golden State Warriors. 1898 01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:19,160 Speaker 1: Do you like the idea drafting Brony just to keep Lebron? 1899 01:31:20,320 --> 01:31:22,120 Speaker 2: I don't like the idea, but it may have to 1900 01:31:22,160 --> 01:31:23,920 Speaker 2: be done. I mean, why can't you go ahead and 1901 01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:25,040 Speaker 2: sign him in free agency? 1902 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:25,240 Speaker 1: Then? 1903 01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:26,479 Speaker 2: Why could you do something like that? 1904 01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:28,720 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean if you leave Mon drafted, could you 1905 01:31:28,880 --> 01:31:30,479 Speaker 1: then just invite him to camp and sign him? 1906 01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:32,360 Speaker 2: You could, But then I don't think that has the 1907 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,879 Speaker 2: same you know, uh, type. 1908 01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:39,559 Speaker 1: Is the point. But so so you symbolically draft him 1909 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:41,880 Speaker 1: even though Lebron knows he's not good enough? Really? 1910 01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1911 01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 1: Or do you have Lebron so blinded by the fact 1912 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:45,920 Speaker 1: that it's his I think. 1913 01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 2: He's partly blinded. I think he's partly blinded. I think 1914 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:52,240 Speaker 2: he you know, the way he was acting in some 1915 01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:55,000 Speaker 2: of those high school games, and I actually thought, Lebron 1916 01:31:55,479 --> 01:31:58,280 Speaker 2: are actually we brought He was so much better then 1917 01:31:58,320 --> 01:32:00,439 Speaker 2: he's showing in his first year at USC. I don't 1918 01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:02,680 Speaker 2: know how much of that is from his condition or 1919 01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 2: anything like that. I don't think anything, but he I 1920 01:32:05,960 --> 01:32:07,320 Speaker 2: expected a lot more this year. 1921 01:32:07,160 --> 01:32:08,920 Speaker 1: Out if he stayed four years, how good do you 1922 01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:10,439 Speaker 1: think he could be at the end of four years? 1923 01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:12,840 Speaker 2: Maybe ten points a game? 1924 01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:17,000 Speaker 1: Maybe that's rough. I don't mean an the NBA. I 1925 01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:18,920 Speaker 1: mean in college. If he stayed USC for four years, 1926 01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:21,240 Speaker 1: averaging ten as a senior. 1927 01:32:21,080 --> 01:32:22,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean they're hard, so he has no 1928 01:32:23,120 --> 01:32:25,519 Speaker 2: business being in the NBA. No, what is he averaging that? 1929 01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:27,559 Speaker 2: Like five game five a game or something? 1930 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:30,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean I'm saying like, yes, but there's 1931 01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:33,000 Speaker 1: a lot of freshmen that then, at least back in 1932 01:32:33,080 --> 01:32:36,760 Speaker 1: the day when guys stuck around, you would see kind 1933 01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:39,000 Speaker 1: of growth in guys that maybe they didn't have it 1934 01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:41,280 Speaker 1: at first, and then they turned into and blossom. 1935 01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:44,080 Speaker 2: Now, I don't know, he gets so much better where 1936 01:32:44,120 --> 01:32:47,120 Speaker 2: he's really a legitimate draft pick, but he's not now, 1937 01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 2: you know. No, the season, you know, you had, people 1938 01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 2: are publications, how you go, he's a lot of repick 1939 01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:57,320 Speaker 2: and stuff like that. What a bout of Bologni that was? 1940 01:32:57,520 --> 01:33:00,320 Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, sure, no, I agree with you. I 1941 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:03,320 Speaker 1: was just curious. We don't see guys stick around four 1942 01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:05,639 Speaker 1: years for the most part. There's a few schools where 1943 01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:08,160 Speaker 1: it happens. I mean, you've got what Zach Edy at 1944 01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:10,240 Speaker 1: Purdue and some of the guys at Gonzaga used to 1945 01:33:10,280 --> 01:33:12,400 Speaker 1: stick around for a while, But most of the time 1946 01:33:13,200 --> 01:33:15,320 Speaker 1: you don't see it happen. Maybe you're gonna see it 1947 01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:17,519 Speaker 1: more in the nil era because there's gonna be an 1948 01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,920 Speaker 1: incentive to stay as opposed to going, especially if you're 1949 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:23,760 Speaker 1: a college player where you're kind of borderline but you're 1950 01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:27,120 Speaker 1: a solid college basketball player. Do you want to get 1951 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:29,800 Speaker 1: exposed quickly or later on? If you're making big money 1952 01:33:29,840 --> 01:33:30,320 Speaker 1: in college? 1953 01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:30,680 Speaker 2: Right? 1954 01:33:31,120 --> 01:33:32,439 Speaker 1: I want to stick around in college. 1955 01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:34,800 Speaker 2: The college money. I'd never thought nil money would be 1956 01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:37,840 Speaker 2: this lucrative. I didn't see this coming at all. I 1957 01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:40,000 Speaker 2: thought they were gonna get their money and get a 1958 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:43,320 Speaker 2: little bit of it, but nothing like this. It's absolutely insane. 1959 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:45,519 Speaker 1: I think Dan Patrick said earlier this week, and he's 1960 01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:48,320 Speaker 1: right that it was either him or maybe his coward. 1961 01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:52,639 Speaker 1: It may be coward. That one thing about Kaitlyn Clark, 1962 01:33:52,680 --> 01:33:55,200 Speaker 1: and this goes to this point we're talking about college basketball. 1963 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:58,080 Speaker 1: One thing that helps Caitlyn Clark tremendously in terms of 1964 01:33:58,160 --> 01:34:01,080 Speaker 1: her marketability is her longy. It it's not like she 1965 01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:04,400 Speaker 1: came around six weeks ago. She's somebody we've known about 1966 01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:05,599 Speaker 1: now for a couple of years. 1967 01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:05,840 Speaker 2: Right. 1968 01:34:05,880 --> 01:34:08,160 Speaker 1: We knew how good she was last year, and she's 1969 01:34:08,320 --> 01:34:11,400 Speaker 1: unfortunately unlike you know, Peyton Becker's that had they got 1970 01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:13,840 Speaker 1: heard and or Buker's they got hurt, and then she's 1971 01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:15,760 Speaker 1: gonna stick around again next year. But she hadn't been 1972 01:34:15,760 --> 01:34:17,600 Speaker 1: the same since the injury, and she's just dealt with 1973 01:34:17,680 --> 01:34:20,599 Speaker 1: a lot. Kaitlyn Clark. We knew she was great last year. 1974 01:34:20,960 --> 01:34:23,320 Speaker 1: She made headlines last year, and so this year she 1975 01:34:23,439 --> 01:34:25,799 Speaker 1: came back in with that equity. That's that's the difference 1976 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:29,200 Speaker 1: in college basketball. With all due respect to Torres, it's 1977 01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:32,040 Speaker 1: not the same because you can't get invested in one 1978 01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:34,840 Speaker 1: and done. You just can't. It's not the same. From 1979 01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 1: right tonight, I have no idea who's on the floor 1980 01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:39,080 Speaker 1: for a lot of the top ten teams in the country. 1981 01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:41,559 Speaker 2: If I'm Kaitland Clark, I may stick around one more 1982 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:42,280 Speaker 2: year at Iowa. 1983 01:34:42,560 --> 01:34:44,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're gonna be a legend. You're already a legend, 1984 01:34:44,760 --> 01:34:46,599 Speaker 1: but they might build a statue of you while you're 1985 01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:49,360 Speaker 1: still playing there, right, and I guess said there next year. 1986 01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:51,280 Speaker 2: Kind of depends on who's going to have that pick 1987 01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:53,280 Speaker 2: and where you want to go out there. But she doesn't. 1988 01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 2: She's she could go graduate or whatever it takes her 1989 01:34:56,600 --> 01:34:58,640 Speaker 2: go get a master's or whatever she has to do. 1990 01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 2: I wouldn't wouldn't be so quick to say that yesterday. 1991 01:35:01,040 --> 01:35:03,800 Speaker 1: Man, she does whatever she wants. She's earned it. She's 1992 01:35:03,880 --> 01:35:06,200 Speaker 1: earned the right, and she is good enough to make 1993 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:09,080 Speaker 1: whatever decision she thinks is going to make her happiest, because, 1994 01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:11,760 Speaker 1: barring injuries, she's gonna have the opportunity to do that 1995 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:14,200 Speaker 1: other thing step up whenever she wants. She can do 1996 01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 1: it today, she could have done it a month ago, 1997 01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:18,400 Speaker 1: or she could do it a year from now. Like 1998 01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:20,280 Speaker 1: she's the world is her oyster. 1999 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:23,559 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean it should have to worry about injuries, 2000 01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:25,080 Speaker 2: but you get insurance for stuff like that. 2001 01:35:25,520 --> 01:35:28,360 Speaker 1: That's right, all right, one more time, let's go out 2002 01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:31,719 Speaker 1: and get a final update from Steve de Seger.

Stanford Tree, I think, is usually 2125 01:41:47,760 --> 01:41:48,200 Speaker 1: the one that. 2126 01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:50,080 Speaker 5: Has a non mascot mascot. 2127 01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:55,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. That's right, because Tiger Woods was mentioned in 2128 01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:58,280 Speaker 1: that update. I talked about it a lot this morning, 2129 01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:00,360 Speaker 1: but had to pull out because of all this. The 2130 01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 1: two biggest stories coming out of the Genesis Invitational, Arnie 2131 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:08,559 Speaker 1: was Tiger Woods having to pull out due to illness, right, 2132 01:42:09,240 --> 01:42:12,599 Speaker 1: and jordan'sp signing the card incorrectly and being dicued. 2133 01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:13,920 Speaker 2: I don't know how that happens. 2134 01:42:13,920 --> 01:42:15,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how that has happened a few times, 2135 01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:23,200 Speaker 1: but it is crazy Tiger might be done. Arnie Well, obviously, 2136 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:26,120 Speaker 1: I'm illness can happen to anybody. But he also had 2137 01:42:26,160 --> 01:42:31,120 Speaker 1: backspasms in the first round, and some suggested that it 2138 01:42:31,200 --> 01:42:33,560 Speaker 1: looked like he was still having back issues in the 2139 01:42:33,640 --> 01:42:36,120 Speaker 1: second round. Now, his friend said that wasn't the case. 2140 01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:39,599 Speaker 1: But I'm not worried about the illness. The illness can 2141 01:42:39,640 --> 01:42:44,280 Speaker 1: happen to anybody. I was sick last week, but the 2142 01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:47,800 Speaker 1: backspasm still being a thing, and just the fact that 2143 01:42:47,880 --> 01:42:51,120 Speaker 1: he's forty eight years old, it just it kind of 2144 01:42:51,200 --> 01:42:52,800 Speaker 1: just feels like the cards are. 2145 01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:54,920 Speaker 2: Up, Like, are we gonna see Tiger when he's like 2146 01:42:55,040 --> 01:42:56,840 Speaker 2: sixty five years old? 2147 01:42:57,160 --> 01:42:57,200 Speaker 1: No? 2148 01:42:57,360 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 2: No, like walking like he's Earl Campbell. I mean, Campbell's 2149 01:43:00,439 --> 01:43:03,439 Speaker 2: in a wheelchair and it's been so banged up. Is 2150 01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 2: Tiger Wood's gonna be using like a cane and stuff 2151 01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:08,080 Speaker 2: to walk because of his back situation. 2152 01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:11,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it is that bad. I didn't know. 2153 01:43:11,360 --> 01:43:14,360 Speaker 2: Look, I knew he was injured, but man, I didn't 2154 01:43:14,360 --> 01:43:16,840 Speaker 2: know that it was like this debilitating for him. 2155 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:18,960 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not saying this with any kind of joy. 2156 01:43:19,080 --> 01:43:21,280 Speaker 1: It just it just kind of feels like we're done here. 2157 01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 2: We could be we could It's unfortunate because I do 2158 01:43:25,479 --> 01:43:29,400 Speaker 2: love watching Tiger. Maybe puts it all together for a uh, 2159 01:43:29,760 --> 01:43:32,040 Speaker 2: you know, four day tournament, but it doesn't look that 2160 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:32,720 Speaker 2: way right now. 2161 01:43:33,040 --> 01:43:35,240 Speaker 1: No, it doesn't. And of course it takes a big 2162 01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:38,080 Speaker 1: sting out of that tournament not to have him playing, 2163 01:43:38,640 --> 01:43:40,760 Speaker 1: both for the gallery and for anybody that was going 2164 01:43:40,800 --> 01:43:43,200 Speaker 1: to watch it on television. Despite what Patrick Cantley and 2165 01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:45,360 Speaker 1: some of these guys are doing, there's some outstanding golfers 2166 01:43:45,400 --> 01:43:47,280 Speaker 1: out there, but the star power took a big hit. 2167 01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:52,519 Speaker 2: Not if Tiger's you know in the on the leader board. 2168 01:43:53,120 --> 01:43:55,080 Speaker 2: You're tuning in. You want to see what he's going 2169 01:43:55,160 --> 01:43:56,800 Speaker 2: to do, no matter what tournament it is. 2170 01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:59,240 Speaker 1: That's exactly right. We'll come back. We'll put the finishing 2171 01:43:59,360 --> 01:44:02,800 Speaker 1: touches on this edition of the program.

We will wait with baited breath, 2177 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,320 Speaker 1: uh for that one. But yeah, we'll pinish it off. Also, 2178 01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:18,519 Speaker 1: Victor Wembiniana said something really interesting that should make every 2179 01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:23,040 Speaker 1: Spurs fan extremely excited about their future with Wemby.

Well he's a good pro, that's for sure. 2206 01:45:36,439 --> 01:45:40,240 Speaker 1: So he was asked. Wimby was asked after the after 2207 01:45:40,360 --> 01:45:43,679 Speaker 1: the contest on Friday night, if he can look ahead 2208 01:45:44,360 --> 01:45:49,960 Speaker 1: to what the Spurs can become after the rebuild and 2209 01:45:50,640 --> 01:45:53,120 Speaker 1: Pop Pop Bitch is famous for talking about you just 2210 01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:56,200 Speaker 1: can't skip steps and all these kinds of things. Right, 2211 01:45:56,960 --> 01:46:00,120 Speaker 1: So wim Banyanna this quote, and I'm telling you, the 2212 01:46:00,280 --> 01:46:03,840 Speaker 1: first two sentences here should be on t shirts and 2213 01:46:04,040 --> 01:46:07,080 Speaker 1: sold in San Antonio from now until the end of 2214 01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:10,960 Speaker 1: Womenona's career. This is epic stuff. I have no idea 2215 01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:13,120 Speaker 1: if it's his quote or not. Maybe it's not, but 2216 01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:15,840 Speaker 1: it's awesome. He says this, he goes, and remember his 2217 01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:19,599 Speaker 1: age and all this. He goes, I'm not skipping steps. 2218 01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:23,400 Speaker 1: I've been told never to skip steps my whole life, 2219 01:46:23,479 --> 01:46:25,719 Speaker 1: but it didn't stop me from running up the stairs. 2220 01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:28,920 Speaker 1: Of course, it's something I want to be a part of. 2221 01:46:29,000 --> 01:46:31,000 Speaker 1: In the future. For now, I'm just a student of 2222 01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:33,320 Speaker 1: this league. I don't really know how everything works, but 2223 01:46:33,439 --> 01:46:35,879 Speaker 1: of course it's something I want to be highly involved 2224 01:46:35,920 --> 01:46:40,439 Speaker 1: with in the future. I love that that's a young 2225 01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:42,799 Speaker 1: guy with perspective. We know how good he is already. 2226 01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:44,680 Speaker 1: He had twenty seven and twenty six in his last 2227 01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:49,439 Speaker 1: two games prior to the Yeah, he's unreal. 2228 01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:51,880 Speaker 2: Three blocks over three blocks a game too. 2229 01:46:52,040 --> 01:46:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's everything that people said he was going to 2230 01:46:54,400 --> 01:46:57,920 Speaker 1: be in more. You hear future Hall of famers for 2231 01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:00,960 Speaker 1: sure in the league already talking about the problem. He's 2232 01:47:01,360 --> 01:47:04,719 Speaker 1: he is unreal, but he's talking about being a student 2233 01:47:04,720 --> 01:47:08,320 Speaker 1: in the league, learning this league. And he also says again, 2234 01:47:08,520 --> 01:47:12,639 Speaker 1: I've been told, just like Papovich says, never to skip steps. 2235 01:47:12,680 --> 01:47:14,240 Speaker 1: He's been told that his whole life. But it didn't 2236 01:47:14,240 --> 01:47:17,120 Speaker 1: stop me from running up the stairs. Meaning I'm gonna 2237 01:47:17,120 --> 01:47:19,519 Speaker 1: try and make this as fast as humanly possible. Doesn't 2238 01:47:19,520 --> 01:47:21,840 Speaker 1: mean we're gonna go from We're gonna skip all of 2239 01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:24,559 Speaker 1: the growth process along the way, but I'm gonna push 2240 01:47:24,640 --> 01:47:27,280 Speaker 1: this as fast and as far as we can because 2241 01:47:27,320 --> 01:47:28,840 Speaker 1: I don't want to be patient and sit there for 2242 01:47:28,880 --> 01:47:31,160 Speaker 1: the rebuild. If we can get there, faster. I love that. 2243 01:47:31,760 --> 01:47:34,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love everything about that. I also kind of 2244 01:47:34,439 --> 01:47:37,080 Speaker 2: love that he's like one of the best, you know, 2245 01:47:37,560 --> 01:47:39,680 Speaker 2: rookies a couple long and a long time. But yet 2246 01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:42,960 Speaker 2: they're sitting at the bottom of the standings there with Popovich, 2247 01:47:43,080 --> 01:47:44,120 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame coach. 2248 01:47:44,280 --> 01:47:47,759 Speaker 1: So control what are you basically saying there? I didn't 2249 01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:50,320 Speaker 1: just get it rebuild because they had been They hadn't 2250 01:47:50,360 --> 01:47:52,080 Speaker 1: made the playoffs since two thousand and. 2251 01:47:52,080 --> 01:47:54,519 Speaker 2: Eight, not at eleven and forty four. I mean that 2252 01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 2: was embarrassing. I mean the they were just embarrassing early 2253 01:47:58,080 --> 01:48:00,760 Speaker 2: on too. Papovich did not have I'm ready to play, 2254 01:48:00,880 --> 01:48:01,479 Speaker 2: So yeah, I. 2255 01:48:01,479 --> 01:48:07,960 Speaker 1: Don't understand I mean Papovich's greatness. But boy, once it 2256 01:48:08,080 --> 01:48:11,360 Speaker 1: got dry from a talent perspective, Yeah, once Kawhi left, 2257 01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:16,120 Speaker 1: man that that team has not been worthy of talking 2258 01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:22,760 Speaker 1: about in half a decade. We talk about Belichick, right 2259 01:48:23,360 --> 01:48:25,080 Speaker 1: exactly what's the difference? 2260 01:48:25,560 --> 01:48:28,920 Speaker 2: No, you're that's an excellent point, Really no difference at all. 2261 01:48:29,080 --> 01:48:31,880 Speaker 2: It's real easy to coach when you have Duncan and 2262 01:48:32,080 --> 01:48:36,000 Speaker 2: Robinson and players like that, isn't it? And when by Yama, 2263 01:48:36,400 --> 01:48:38,800 Speaker 2: So you know, we'll see how long it takes something 2264 01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:39,599 Speaker 2: to get back up there. 2265 01:48:39,920 --> 01:48:41,720 Speaker 1: Well mean a list. It's got the guy now, but yeah, 2266 01:48:41,720 --> 01:48:43,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to make some moves around him. But 2267 01:48:43,439 --> 01:48:45,439 Speaker 1: you've got to got to build around and he's got 2268 01:48:45,479 --> 01:48:48,680 Speaker 1: the right attitude. That stuff is utterly tremendous. All right, 2269 01:48:48,760 --> 01:48:51,559 Speaker 1: So you and plank tomorrow, plank for the next four 2270 01:48:51,640 --> 01:48:54,479 Speaker 1: hours looking for dressing into him.
