Speaker 3: Yes, to see you, brother. That's great to see you, Mike.

13
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 3: We wait all year for what I think some people

14
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 3: feel is the NBA season beginning, what it may have

15
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 3: done on Saturday, and then it quickly ended for some

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 3: other teams, which I know we'll get into the whole shebang.

17
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,639
Speaker 3: But there are people who are like, all right, I'm

18
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 3: ready to go. I've got my NBA focus on now

19
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 3: that it's the postseason and it may be one and

20
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: done for some the teams have played on Saturday.

21
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 2: I do dig that you got the word shabang in.

22
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: We have golf live and in living color, and we've

23
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: got Everton and Nottingham Forest. Yes, Premier League starts at

Speaker 2: Byer on Fox. It's been the dump your sports misery

35
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 2: on me and I know yes in Theory, Hope Springs Eternal,

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 2: the Draft coming up on Thursday, and all the coverage

37
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 2: and pomp and circumstance. We've got it live here on

38
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: Fox Sports radios. We always do. We'll talk about that

39
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: as the show goes on. But in the interim, I

40
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 2: watched the bulls get drummed and sent away and the

41
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 2: usual platitudes from the front office, like you should be fired,

42
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: you should not be making the next decision, and then

43
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 2: you ask, well, it's a Ryansdorfian world. How many years

44
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 2: are left on your contract? Because that's what we end

45
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: up doing in Chicago. See Dan, you get to play

46
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: it out no matter how poor you are because they

47
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: don't want to pay you to sit on your shots.

48
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: So you got that, so they go down. But when

49
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: I can say the highlight of my day was the

50
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 2: White Sox only losing seven to noth into the Phillies

51
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: that day, that that was a better watch because it

52
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 2: only took two hours and it was no hope well

53
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: and there was no hope at any point. That that's

54
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: the better part of the day. Yeah, sports misery, I

55
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: am your king.

56
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: I would also say that there's got to be a

57
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 3: little extra salt in the wound, especially if you're the

58
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: South Side Chicago sports fan like you are, because the

59
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 3: Cubs are playing well. So if you're a Cubs fan

60
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 3: in the city, you've got that life preserver from the

61
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 3: Blackhawks and the Bay and the Bulls season ending this week.

62
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: But for you it's gonna then be double's as worse

63
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: because at least those North Siders have the Cubs where

64
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 3: you have to then maybe even watch them play well

65
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 3: and have your season be absolutely atrocious. Like there's some

66
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 3: sports cities that may be bad all the way around,

67
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 3: but yours is not only bad all the way around.

68
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 3: The team that you probably dislike the most that's just

69
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 3: across town is actually playing well.

70
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's always the rule of thumb. I tell people,

71
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: if you hear someone say hey, I'm from Chicago, first off,

72
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 2: see how far out in the suburbs they are when

73
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 2: they're claiming got But then ask them which which side that.

74
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 3: Is a true thing? And I not to you, No, No,

75
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 3: you're all good. My one of my best friends college

76
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: roommate is from Glenn Allen, and she would always say

77
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 3: Chicago suburbs because of what you're saying of people who

78
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 3: tried to clinch. She wasn't trying to be uh, you know,

79
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 3: opposer or anything like that. You would always say Chicago

80
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 3: suburbs And would say, well, wh would you say that?

81
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: She goes because everybody tries to claim Chicago and they're

82
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 3: not actually from Chicago.

83
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: No, that's well, but it's the thing where you claim

84
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: the biggest city near you because nobody knows what Glenn

85
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: Allen is.

86
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 3: Yeah right.

87
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: It's like when we lived in upstate New York for

88
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: a couple of years. We lived in Niskayuna slash Schenectady.

89
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 2: Funny signs on old cartoons if you remember from back

90
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 2: in the day, and show up in movies now and again.

91
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 2: But the nearest big city Albany. Yeah, so folks would

92
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: mostly say Albany. I like the sound of Niskayuna and

93
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: Schenectady running off my lips, so I would probably wear it.

94
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 2: But the idea being, if you hear someone tell you

95
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 2: that from Chicago, you then ask which team they support,

96
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 2: and then if they say both, you know they're either

97
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 2: running for office or you're about to get the sales

98
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: pitch about something. They're about to tell you something. It

99
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: was like, well, I don't want a fence, so I'm

100
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: a fan of all Chicago. Now you've now either adopted

101
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: the city, you're selling me something, or you're running for office.

102
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 2: That's it.

103
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 3: It's very true. So I've never met it really a both, Well,

104
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 3: you can't be yours.

105
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you can't be a both. Those and the

106
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: beauty of our show at night, the one I do

107
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: seven to eleven each night here on Fox Sports trading

108
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: with Jason Smith. I don't get to talk about my

109
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 2: teams a lot, so I don't want to have to

110
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 2: focus on the Cobs a ton. Yeah, you know, unless

111
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: it comes to September and they're still viable, then I

112
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: guess really start talking about them, or maybe the trade deadline.

113
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:34,679
Speaker 2: But this probably serves as what my one big Cubs

114
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 2: inclusion on a show. But you know, the NBA playoffs,

115
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 2: we saw the Bulls get stomped, and that's fine. So

116
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 2: the Heat get to go on and play the Celtics,

117
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 2: the prohibited favorites in the Eastern Conference. I don't know

118
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 2: that I've seen many articles starting with something other than

119
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 2: if the Celtics lose the East, and then it's all

120
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 2: about these chaos scenarios of the team blowing up or

121
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 2: somebody getting hurt. Unfortunately, what we have to do with

122
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 2: playoff analysis anymore, Dan, it's everything starts with if this

123
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: guy is healthy. Right, We'll talk about the Bucks in

124
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 2: Arnest in a little bit.

125
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and I think it even it even showed

126
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 3: last night in the Knick Sixers game. And I give

127
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 3: the Sixers credit for battling and give Joel Embiid credit

128
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: for battling through through his issues, because at the halftime

129
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 3: of that game, it did not look like Joel Embiid

130
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 3: was going to be available for the Sixers, not only

131
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 3: maybe in this game, but for the rest of the series,

132
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 3: just because of how he went down in the game

133
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 3: and that what he's had this season and the injuries

134
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 3: that he's dealt with. But yeah, you're right, Mike click.

135
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 3: Even if the Sixers who did battle back and make

136
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 3: it a game against the Knicks, even if they get

137
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 3: game two, even if they somehow would pull the series

138
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 3: out of their hat, which is not going to happen.

139
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 3: There's no chance because of what you just said with

140
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 3: the health of Joel Embiid, and this is the same

141
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 3: with other players throughout the NBA.

142
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just that long term, right. He played and

143
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: gutted it out, But we watched him a couple of

144
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: games prior, laboring up and down the court. We had

145
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 2: Rick Buker on with us a couple of weeks ago.

146
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: He goes, I've never seen the guy bent over at

147
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 2: the free throw line gasping for air the way he

148
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: was because clearly Cardio because of the injury he'd sustained.

149
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: He'd not been able to sustain that myriad injuries. So

150
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 2: it's all right even if you survive Round one and

151
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 2: Maxi was fantastic. I mean basically you hated him. They

152
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 2: were traffic cones. Sure, that's become the meme of choice

153
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 2: I think for this year's NBA playoffs, by the way,

154
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: because I saw multiple Knicks guys as the head of

155
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: a traffic cone, and then DiAngelo Russell later became a

156
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: very frequent Yes, a very rough night for him. We'll

157
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: get to that in just a second. But you know,

158
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: for the Sixers, for your bucks, for the Clippers, right

159
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: the Willy, your woney Kawhi Leonard, not just today but

160
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 2: in general, where is he at health wise? It seems

161
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: that more and more each year we have these discussions

162
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: of just the playoffs. Right, We've already lost Jimmy Butler

163
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: and Zion Williamson in the play ins, yes, right before

164
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 2: we even get to the the massive, long, arduous three

165
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 2: month schedule that is the playoffs. You know, starting in

166
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 2: earnest yesterday is that Zion has the explosive game against

167
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: the Lakers, and then you watched him throw down the

168
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 2: towel and stomp away. I think he probably channeled a

169
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 2: little bit of the Broadster with that little stop, like

170
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: I'm mad, you know, yes, yeah, look, we've all done

171
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 2: that stop. We might still do it as as middle

172
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: aged men. But it was one of those that's not good,

173
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: that's that good. And the Jimmy Butler injury. Obviously, the

174
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 2: heat heat culture whatever. You can rally against a bad

175
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 2: bulls team. But see what the next iteration is. But

176
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 2: the fact that you're already checking off the boxes of superstars,

177
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 2: you know, you get into that, all right, who do

178
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 2: we trust? I'll take Jokic and you can have the field.

179
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 2: I think at this point, I think that's that's a

180
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 2: very fair point. It's the second straight year that Giannis

181
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: is going to be playing playoff games with the Bucks

182
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: hampered with an injury, and by the way, we don't

183
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,719
Speaker 2: even know if he's going to be playing like the

184
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 2: The point is is he's probably not gonna play today,

185
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: even though Doc Rivers wanted to keep out the craziest

186
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: of hopes that he could. It's not likely to go

187
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 2: and we have no idea what that even means for

188
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: the rest of the series and then as we saw

189
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 2: with Embiid yesterday. While I do think Embiad is different

190
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 2: than Yannis because let's face it, like this is and

191
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: with Embiid, I found I found it interesting even with

192
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 2: the halftime show that ESPN did of trying to they

193
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 2: were trying to say things that they couldn't say because

194
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 2: it was an NBA halftime show, and they said like, obviously,

195
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 2: obviously we we don't want, you know, anytime anyone gets hurt,

196
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 2: we wish them the best.

197
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: We don't wish the injury on anybody. And it may

198
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: have been a nick slanted take on on the desk.

199
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 2: You don't get those at all, you talk, but the

200
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 2: point is.

201
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 3: Is that this is just who Joel Embiid is, right

202
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 3: And so for the fact that the seventy six ers

203
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 3: like I can never ever have a conversation about Philadelphia

204
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 3: and what they're going to do, and again like it's

205
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 3: not like we expected Philadelphia, and I know we're talking

206
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 3: about other teams, but you have to talk about him

207
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,959
Speaker 3: getting injured because we would do it with Chris Paul right,

208
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:28,599
Speaker 3: like like Joel Embiid's injury for his career, right alongside

209
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 3: the MVP is going to be oft injured. He started

210
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 3: his career injured, middle of his career has been injured.

211
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 3: This part of his career has been injured. So there's

212
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,959
Speaker 3: there's no conversation that you could have with it. And

213
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 3: and and I think that's what was so disappointing with

214
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 3: the Sixers is they knew that it was over before began.

215
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 3: But to your point, like, if you're a Bucks fan

216
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 3: like I am, if you don't have Giannis, it's okay,

217
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 3: maybe maybe somebody you figure out some crazy waiters survive

218
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 3: the Pacers, Oh, it's it's over after that. Or I mean,

219
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 3: like it's so these goals, like the point like crossing

220
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 3: off teams, where we think it's a wide open NBA playoffs,

221
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 3: it's probably just a survival of the fittest in the end.

222
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 2: It's a different world the last couple of years. And look,

223
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 2: as much as folks bemoan it, we talk about the

224
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 2: length of the schedule. Look, they put into the CBA

225
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 2: of the sixty five games, right to be eligible for

226
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 2: all NBA, to be eligible for the awards, all of

227
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 2: that stuff, which is all fine and good, but then

228
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: you realize how difficult that is for some folks, and

229
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: if you don't meet that threshold, no matter how great

230
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 2: you were, because look at the gear Embid was having

231
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: before he got hurt. Yeah, but now he's not eligible

232
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 2: for any of the all nbas and in his case

233
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: doesn't matter, he's already gotten his bag. I think about

234
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 2: the guys. You know that you've now tied that to contracts, sure,

235
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 2: which is, to me is the most acid nine of

236
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 2: any of these things. Votes for this or you know,

237
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 2: all NBA votes or whatever. And look, it's disingenuous to

238
00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 2: do an NBA pregame, halftime show or post or preview

239
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 2: the playoffs without citing the amount of time these guys miss.

240
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 2: And we can again we lament how long the season

241
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,839
Speaker 2: is and say, well, it's too much stress whatever. And

242
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 2: then you can't, out of the other side of your

243
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 2: mouth get mad when a guy takes a load management

244
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 2: day or five or ten at this point, because really

245
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 2: it only matters if you're playing for the title, right.

246
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 3: Sure, But like you're pointing at what Buker was saying about,

247
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 3: and be this part of this as well, is how

248
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 3: do you how do you manage it? Like there's there's

249
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 3: no way of knowing, Like now that they got in

250
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 3: be back. Thank goodness, you know, like for them, like

251
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 3: that's what they're saying. But they're like, well, he just

252
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 3: missed a month and he's nowhere in shape to play

253
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. Okay, So do you want a guy

254
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 3: hurt then in the in the middle of the season

255
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 3: so then he could come back in February and ramp

256
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 3: up to the playoffs. Well, then now you're taking that

257
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 3: two month span and all right, something could happen to that.

258
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 3: That's all it is. There's no way to gain the

259
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 3: system right now in the NBA.

260
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 2: No, and we don't have enough dat to suggest otherwise.

261
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,959
Speaker 2: But you know, that's the attempt along the way of

262
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 2: all right, I can manage these games down the stretch

263
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 2: and he'll be ready for the beginning of April. It's like, remember,

264
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 2: he's still got to get to the end of June anymore.

265
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 3: Which makes Lebron's elbow. I don't mean to laugh, because

266
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 3: I'm sure hitting your elbow on the hardwood floor does

267
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 3: not feel well. But when we like look at all

268
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 3: the injuries that we see throughout the NBA, and then

269
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 3: they're losing last night and he takes a fall, and

270
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 3: and and and slips, and I think that was part

271
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 3: of it as well. I think he was kind of

272
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 3: embarrassed that he slipped. Yeah, but then when he hit

273
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 3: his elbow, like you thought it was like gonna be

274
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 3: Jade and Daniel's elbow, you know, at that point, like that,

275
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 3: that's what you thought. It was.

276
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 2: Michael Thompson in the playing game against against New Orleans,

277
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 2: there was a moment where Zion and he collided and

278
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 2: Lebron stayed down on the court for like three minutes.

279
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: You had Michael Thompson, I'm the Lakers broadcast going, would

280
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 2: you just get up already?

281
00:13:59,000 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 3: What are we doing?

282
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 2: Every bit of a collision becomes you know, like we're

283
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: on a freeway and it's a car wreck, and Ireland's like, well,

284
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 2: I think he might have did he hit his head? Goes, No,

285
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 2: he didn't hit his head. He hurt his pride because

286
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 2: that young man ran over him.

287
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 4: All.

288
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 2: You know, it's all a lot, But that's the Lakers

289
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: broadcast like, good for you. Give that man a pay

290
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 2: race because he cut through the grade. By the way,

291
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 2: Lebron not attempting a shot in the fourth quarter until

292
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 2: there were what one twenty remaining, as much as we

293
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 2: could cook de'angelo Russell and as bad as he was, like,

294
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 2: you're you're gonna give the ball up while you're still

295
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 2: in striking distance of the Mavericks and you're just gonna

296
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 2: become Yeah, I'm not gonna shoot.

297
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 3: I thought, I you know, it was odd.

298
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 5: It was.

299
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 3: It was extremely odd to that point, with what about

300
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 3: a minute left was then he finally ended up taking

301
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 3: taking it and he missed that layup.

302
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then he hits a bunny with like thirty

303
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: five seconds left.

304
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 3: That they did get within six in that fourth quarter,

305
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 3: So to the point of maybe maybe he is taking

306
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 3: all this heat and just need somebody else to step up.

307
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 3: I thought about that last night too, like, how is

308
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 3: how is that even possible that you don't you don't

309
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 3: take a shot like you just you need to at

310
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 3: least take one. And they did come because they were

311
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 3: the third quarter was not kind to me, but they did.

312
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 3: They were making their way back. Maybe it wasn't you know,

313
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 3: if it's not broke, don't fix it sort of thing.

314
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna get on him too much for that,

315
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 3: but to your point, it did kind of stick out

316
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 3: a little like a sore thumb.

317
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 2: I kind of Dug the You know now that I'm

318
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 2: thinking about the elbow move, it's that Peter Griffin from

319
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 2: Family Guy meme that goes around when he skins his

320
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 2: knee and he lays around like and and now that

321
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 2: they're at season twenty five of the show, they let

322
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 2: that live for about forty five seconds at a time,

323
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 2: just kill the time. At this point it was a

324
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 2: seven seven second bit. Y'all seem to like it, so

325
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 2: let's just keep it going. He's Dan bayro on my

362
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 3: As you should, you do draft grades and you try

363
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,479
Speaker 3: to stay away from those egg unless they're f's, then

364
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 3: you'll hand those out.

365
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 2: No, no, we no, we get after it. I get

366
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 2: a wide range. You know, we got to have great

367
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 2: on the curve. The fact that we'll and we'll talk

368
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 2: about the Bears specifically the start of next hour. But yeah,

369
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: it's an interesting, interesting scenario, right, A lot of a

370
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 2: lot of trade rumors, a lot of offensive players, not

371
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 2: a lot of def defenders. But coming on, look, it'll

372
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 2: be come about whatever the Jets do. I'm not gonna

373
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 2: I'll call it what it is, whatever Smith does, unless

374
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: there's something really crazy. But yeah, I'll do a mock

375
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: draft Wednesday. I always do one. Usually get about a

376
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 2: quarter of them right. And I feel like this year

377
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 2: we get the the three hundred points like on the

378
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: s a T for getting the first question right.

379
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 3: Yes, automatic, it's given.

380
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 2: Right, So we get that one and then we roll

381
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 2: from there.

382
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 3: I think you know, it turned into could turn into

383
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 3: the Rock Powers Power Hour on Thursday night. If the

384
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 3: if the New York Jets end up going at the

385
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 3: tight end, they'll have to see you.

386
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 2: Think they ignore the history of what tight ends have

387
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 2: done in the first round of recent memory, those statistics

388
00:18:58,720 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 2: are not good.

389
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 3: I'm just looking at your sporting life. Yeah, you know

390
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 3: right now, And I think that would go along with

391
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 3: it of having to deal with that because because of like,

392
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 3: even if they were draft, if they were to draft

393
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 3: a wide receiver to go along with car you could

394
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 3: be like, okay, all right, but to your point about

395
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 3: their history and tight ends, and that would be plus

396
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 3: offensive line being in need. That would be that would

397
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 3: be going along with your anks that you've got in

398
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: your sporting world.

399
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: First thing they need to do is go send out

400
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,479
Speaker 2: a search party, find Aaron Rodgers, trap him, and get

401
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 2: him back into a building with no microphones or social

402
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 2: media access. That's part one of my five part plan

403
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 2: to resurrect the Jets. He's Dan Byer, I'm by Carmen. Joe,

404
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 2: thanks for being with us here this morning and Dan

405
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: a little later on today we get the first game

406
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 2: for your Milwaukee Yes, we've got the heat Celtics get

407
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 2: us started, Mavericks, Clippers who already talking Kawhi, Leonard Willie

408
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 2: or WONEI I don't know. The nightcap will be the

409
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 2: pelic Zion Lists against the Thunder and then we've got

410
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 2: the Pacers and the Bucks coming up four o'clock on

411
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 2: tnt A seven seven eastern. Yes, and forget that sometimes

412
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 2: these things are actually smart enough to recognize my time,

413
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 2: because they didn't always. They didn't always, which meant you

414
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 2: had chaos. So seven eastern, four Pacific, Jianni is not

415
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 2: gonna go, but holding out hope, Doc trying to say

416
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 2: all the right things, and I guess it just comes

417
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 2: down to expectations at this point. Right we've had the Celtics,

418
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 2: they run away and hide double digit win of the conference,

419
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 2: and then the Knicks come up and are able to

420
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 2: rest away the number two slot with the Bucks sliding again.

421
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 2: With the Knicks, it's always the question of you know,

422
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 2: are they tripping over their tongues and the Tom Thibodeau

423
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,719
Speaker 2: I play six or seven guys rotation when it's all

424
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 2: said and done. But for your Bucks, defensively, we knew

425
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 2: they gave a lot up coming into the year to

426
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 2: bring in Damian Lillard. We've had questions down the stretch

427
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 2: of being able to find and hit a big shot

428
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,880
Speaker 2: in big moments down the stretch, and now with Giannis

429
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: potentially missing not just the first game, but the series

430
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 2: and beyond, it's raised a lot of questions because since

431
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 2: Doc came in, when you're jettison a guy who's led

432
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 2: you to a thirty and thirteen record, like, all right,

433
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 2: what's really going on? Will we get the full behind

434
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 2: the scenes, you know, like the Crumbling of the Patriots

435
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 2: book and documentary for the Bucks.

436
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 3: The funny thing with the whole scenario that played in

437
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 3: and how we look at last year into this year.

438
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 3: I actually think that the Bucks are better equipped to

439
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: handle Giannis's injury this year, just because you have Damian Lillard.

440
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: I don't know how much of a better team that

441
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 3: they are, but I think that they're able to handle it.

442
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 3: So all of that aside, Mike, to the point of

443
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 3: this is as a Bucks fan, and there's not tons

444
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 3: and tons out there, but it's grown obviously over the

445
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 3: last five years. This is the day that I've been

446
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 3: waiting for. This is the day that I've been waiting

447
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 3: for since they were eliminated by the Heat last year,

448
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 3: because the only thing that matters is the playoffs. And

449
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 3: if you look at what the Bucks have done over

450
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 3: the last five or six years, you know, when they

451
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 3: had the number one seed, they haven't really they haven't

452
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 3: done anything with it at all. Like there's the year

453
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 3: that they ended up winning the title in twenty twenty one.

454
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 3: They were the three seed that year, and so it's

455
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 3: all been about the playoffs. And that's why I didn't

456
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 3: freak out when Adrian Griffin was fired and Doc Rivers

457
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 3: was hired, because you had to get this thing right

458
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 3: by the playoffs, and even though they were winning games,

459
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: I don't think that was telling you everything about this team.

460
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 3: So they ended up making the change and then they

461
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 3: bring in Doc Rivers. NFL people were piling on to

462
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 3: Doc Rivers because for as good as the Bucks record was,

463
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 3: they did play an easy schedule the first half of

464
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 3: the year, it was tougher in the second half, and honestly,

465
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 3: it was a tough spot for him to be in.

466
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 3: And he would hired about, you know, five ten games

467
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 3: before the All Star break, so when you would have

468
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 3: this start MIC, there really wasn't any acclamation period and

469
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 3: out of the All Star break, they were great, actually

470
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 3: went on a bit of a winning streak, and you're wondering,

471
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 3: all right, maybe is this part of it? Not even

472
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 3: mocked all the people who had, you know, to taking

473
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 3: shots at Doc Rivers because of the Bucks playing so well.

474
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 3: But I did it tongue in cheek, knowing full well

475
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 3: that the regular season had nothing to do with how

476
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 3: I would feel about the Bucks season. And now the

477
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 3: honest is health being in question and not everything's great.

478
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 3: Brook Lopez isn't the same player that he was three

479
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 3: years ago. I think the pat conneton, you know, timeline

480
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 3: has maybe gone on a little bit further than Bucks

481
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 3: fans would want. But in the end, it falls on

482
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 3: Giannessy's shoulder, and it falls on dame shoulder, and Dame

483
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 3: will have an opportunity today, you know, to maybe right

484
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 3: some wrongs. I don't know how much better than that

485
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 3: Bucks team is, maybe than the Portland team that he

486
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 3: went to the Western Conference Finals with a few years back,

487
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 3: with him and CJ. McCollum. But if you honest isn't

488
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 3: to play, it's gonna have to be on his shoulders

489
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 3: and no excuses. As I said, this is this is

490
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 3: what you've been waiting for. So if you don't have

491
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 3: Giannis still, that's all. That's all I've cared about. I

492
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 3: don'tven care about the eighty two games. I knew they

493
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 3: were going to make the playoffs. It's what you do

494
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,679
Speaker 3: in the playoffs, because they've been a failure pretty much

495
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 3: every year except twenty twenty one.

496
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 2: Right as a fan of well relegated to sports misery,

497
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 2: let me ask, what's feel like to know that the

498
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 2: eighty two games don't matter?

499
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 3: I'll for a long time.

500
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 2: What's that feeling like?

501
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 3: Man? It is kind of funny, It is interesting, it is.

502
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 3: It is quite the change. By the way, if they

503
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 3: do lose to the Pacers in the first round, which

504
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 3: Indiana leaves favored today by and a half, YEP, Doc

505
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,239
Speaker 3: Rivers is not going to be fired. He's not going

506
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 3: to be fired. The Bucks may have made some questionable

507
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 3: moves if they were to fire him Mike, which because

508
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 3: again it's not his problem. I don't know if he

509
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 3: can fix it, but this isn't his problem. He didn't

510
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 3: make this problem. You'd be paying four head coaches next season.

511
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 3: You'd have Doc, you'd have Adrian Griffin. You're still paying

512
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 3: Mike Budenholzer, another AR. He was under contracted really through

513
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty five season, and you just gave Doc

514
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 3: an extension that goes through the twenty six twenty seven season.

515
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 3: He is not going anywhere. The decisions that the Bucks

516
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 3: have made in terms of building their team, and as

517
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 3: I said, maybe maybe Pat Connington is a round a

518
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 3: little bit too long. Maybe Brook Lopez isn't the same

519
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 3: player that he was. It's those decisions the Bucks actually

520
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 3: might turned into the big market teams that you always

521
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 3: said that you never were going to be because you

522
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 3: were the Milwaukee Bucks going out and making the big trade.

523
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 3: They don't why I'm gonna go to Miami.

524
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 5: You know.

525
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 3: I do also think that they wanted, they knew that

526
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 3: they needed to make a change. Last year. Honestly, entering

527
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 3: the playoffs, they were top defensive team, and you thought

528
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 3: that you would have this defensive wall of Lopez and

529
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 3: Giannis and Jay Crowder and Drew Holliday and then Jimmy

530
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: Butler and the heat just kind of dismantled that in

531
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 3: five games. You're like, Okay, well this really doesn't work.

532
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 3: So I'm not even worried about their defense. As much

533
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 3: Mike as I am about them just being able to

534
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 3: score the basketball, because they were unable to do that

535
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 3: last year when Giannis, you know, was not healthy in

536
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 3: the playoffs. What are you gonna do? You know, not

537
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 3: at least you have Damian Lillard.

538
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, So a couple of things. First off, you know

539
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 2: the Doc Rivers thing. Look, man, the guy we watched

540
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 2: it here in LA for years. We've watched him. He's

541
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 2: traded on that title with the Celtics for a long

542
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 2: long time with a lot of big time collapses. So

543
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 2: when he gets hired as the next guy, man, everybody's

544
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 2: got the punchlines have already been written, and unfortunately it

545
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 2: then falls on your squad, right, they start slowly, then

546
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 2: you have a winning streak and then it flows. But

547
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: the other part of it now becomes more the Yannis

548
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 2: part of the tail.

549
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 5: Right.

550
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,919
Speaker 2: I do love the shoe story of they weren't going

551
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 2: to sign my brother, so like them. So I'm gonna

552
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 2: go over here, and I wonder, you know how much

553
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 2: of that is Yannis now is at a point in

554
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 2: his life and like, I don't know, the man, it's

555
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 2: always seemed like the humble superstar, but we know that

556
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,719
Speaker 2: outward appearance versus what's behind the scene ain't always one

557
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 2: and the same, and so a much of the narrative

558
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 2: of what's going on this season, even owing back going

559
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 2: to the trade of Lillard, as much as it was

560
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 2: strategic of a keep him away from the heat, becomes

561
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 2: a all right, how much is the visible hand? Is

562
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 2: Yiannis at a point now in his career that he's

563
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 2: exercising with the option of like many teams do, Hey,

564
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,719
Speaker 2: we can always move to LA. Well, now LA has

565
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 2: two teams. You can't use LA. You got to pick

566
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 2: a different city to threaten that you're gonna move her squad.

567
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 2: That Yannis, you know, is the I can take my

568
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 2: ball and leave at any point part of the process.

569
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's always been a huge, huge play. And Mike,

570
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 3: I don't know what the real deal is. I'll tell

571
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 3: you this. You know, they drafted mar John Bouchamp last

572
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 3: year in the first round after in their first round

573
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 3: picks because of the Drew Holiday deal, like you got

574
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 3: to kind of cash in on the ones that you

575
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,440
Speaker 3: actually have or that are advantageous. And I don't think

576
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 3: that they've utilized him as much despite flashes as he

577
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 3: had as a rookie or even his second year. You

578
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 3: have Andre Jackson who you drafted from yukon energy defense.

579
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 3: You know what, that's perfect, especially for an aging team

580
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 3: or a team that figure out a way to get

581
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 3: him on the floor. And they don't do that. They

582
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 3: just they make all the moves. When you look at

583
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,239
Speaker 3: the veterans that have now gone through there, obviously they

584
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 3: signed Pat you know, Beverly during the season, but you

585
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 3: know there's they're making all the moves that you would

586
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 3: think that a Lebron led team would do. Let's just

587
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 3: add this veteran, Let's just add this veteran. This guy's

588
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 3: gonna get cut, let's add this vetter, this guy's gonna

589
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 3: get traded, and then he'll be released that we'll sign him.

590
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 3: That's what they've done a lot of times, and it's hard.

591
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 3: It looks like you're doing work, like you're doing something

592
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 3: for your team, but is it in the best interest

593
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 3: of your team? And I don't think that is. You know,

594
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 3: like Jay Crowder, you know, Wesley Matthews, all these guys

595
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 3: that they've brought. Pokersault was a buck once. I don't

596
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: even think people remember Search of Baka was acquired in

597
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 3: a trade and then didn't really have a role with

598
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 3: the team. Like there's all these names of like veteran

599
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 3: guys and it's just like what are we doing here?

600
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 3: Like this isn't the way that you really got there,

601
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 3: Like Drew Holiday puts you over the top to win

602
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 3: the title, but don't act like those other teams. And

603
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 3: I think the Bucks have fallen victim to it. Yeah.

604
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 2: I don't know how many of those guys were long

605
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 2: enough to actually get trading cards made of him in

606
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 2: a buck huntifort you know what, I'm going to try

607
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 2: to find that out. He's Dan Bayer at Dan Byer

608
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 2: on Fox where you find and find me over at

609

Speaker 2: Swollennome coming up next year from the tirerac dot Com studios.

610
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: Should you just wait until something actually is available to

611
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 2: buy it lest you be left in the cold for

612
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 2: bonus content? Yeah, it's a big topic this week. But

613
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 2: first we got our guy is zac Lohenkron with what's

Speaker 7: was uttered last night from the World of boxing. We'll

618
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 7: have that for you momentarily. We start with Game one

619
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,120

00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 7: Why does that bother you?

627
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 2: Doesn't?

628
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 7: However, the Lakers were bothered by his performance. They got

00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 7: oh with an ERA of zero point eighty five now.

641
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:31,240

642
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:36,840

643
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 7: knocked down Haney three times during the bout. Garcia, however,

644
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 7: was not eligible to win Haney's junior welterweight title because

645
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 7: he weighed too much at the weigh in on Friday.

646
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 7: The same way in where Garcia drank a beer while

647
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 7: on stage and after the fight, Garcia had that same mentality, I.

648
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 5: Walked through the fire and still how to down and

649
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 5: still drink every day and still beat them, and I

650
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 5: do everything.

651
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 8: Drank every single night, went out on the first Monday

652
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 8: and a Tuesday and drank.

653
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 3: What happened?

654
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:08,239
Speaker 9: I won.

655
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 10: I necessarily am I proud of that, But I'm just

656
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 10: saying this is why it was a statement, to show

657
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 10: you that's right.

658
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 3: I do whatever I want.

659
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 8: I still win.

660
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 7: Somewhere, Tom Brady is saying I could have done that.

661
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 2: Back to you, I'm pretty good at drinking beer now.

662
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 2: Haiti denies having his jaw broken. But yeah, if you

663
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 2: could go and do all the things he did, show

664
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 2: up overweight and all of that and still just beat

665
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 2: the guitar out of this guy. You know. Earlier this

666
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 2: week he was denied throwing out the first pitch at

667
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 2: Sitney Field because of an altercation when they were doing

668
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 2: their little pipe promotion.

669
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 3: Everybody thought that the fire was going to be a

670
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 3: train wreck, and it was a wreck for one person

671
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 3: that just wasn't running. Garcie it.

672
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. You get to keep talking and

673
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 2: keep living your life. After that at Isaac Glow and Crown,

686
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 2: getting into the NFL draft in ernest, particularly my squad

687
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 2: at number one fears recognition and well maybe could have

688
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 2: should have would have beens Mike Carmen alongside Dan Bayer

689
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 2: here with you this morning as we roll on. We've

690
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 2: got some golf action a little bit later on today

691
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 2: that is, well, it's starting to crank up now, but

692
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 2: the leaders will get after it a little bit later on, Dan,

693
00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 2: So we'll see if Scheffler's could finish off the follow

694
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 2: up the last year's last week's brilliance.

695
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, a top of the leaderboard again and during

696
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 3: today that would be uh, that would be something to

697
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 3: be able to carry it over. Although like it makes

698
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 3: me wonder a little bit. Sometimes guys, you know, can

699
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 3: get hot at a certain point. But usually when someone

700
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 3: wins a Masters, it would a major, it's quite the

701
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 3: letdout if they end up playing the next week. I

702
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 3: always commend guys who stick to their commitment. The Heritage

703
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 3: this week, the RBC Heritage, a you know, elevated event

704
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 3: where you have a great, great field in and for

705
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 3: Sheffler to come back and win that that would be impressive.

706
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 2: Starts today one stroke ahead and then you've got some

707
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 2: of the usual suspects. I keep an eye on Oberg

708
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 2: now since he's the youngster. He's at thirteen hundred three

709
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 2: back of the lead as they get ready for the

710
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,879
Speaker 2: final round. But you know, this week a seminal moment

711
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 2: in the music and pop culture world dan As the

712
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 2: Tortured Poets Department was released by Taylor Swift long anticipated album.

713
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 2: I have some issues with their shipping people, as in,

714
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 2: I had pre ordered, like so many people. You know,

715
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 2: my daughters want this variant to cover or whatever, and

716
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 2: I get a shipping notice that it doesn't go out

717
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 2: till the night before the release, which means I'm not

718
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 2: getting my physical copy of the album for another two

719
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 2: or three days. Meanwhile, it's been available digitally, It's been

720
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 2: available all over and look, they have their Spotify accounts.

721
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 2: I have my Apple Music. There you go. We've got

722
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 2: everybody covered, all the heavyweights there. Neither sponsors of me

723
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 2: or my programs yet. But the idea that you know,

724
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: I don't get my physical thing until four days after

725
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 2: the release date is just lunacy.

726
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 3: Here's my question, do you get the one album or

727
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 3: do you get the doubles? I had no idea because

728
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 3: that's where they got me, and I'm not a Taylor

729
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 3: Swift fan. I tried to surprise my wife because she

730
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 3: was a fan, and on Thursday night for us, she said,

731
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 3: was is it over?

732
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 10: Oh?

733
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 3: She is, but maybe after she bamboozled her husband. I

734
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 3: purchased the album when it went live at midnight eastern

735
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 3: nine Pacific.

736
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,959
Speaker 2: Okay, so you got your seventeen tracks.

737
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 3: Seventeen I sent it. I sent it as an iTunes

738
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 3: like not a gift card, but like the actual album

739
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 3: is a gift. Okay, Yes, here's a gift. So she

740
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 3: would wake up and her husband would have gotten her

741
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 3: the album. And that was at ten forty five local

742
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 3: time here on the West Coast. So one forty five

743
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:37,919
Speaker 3: in the morning. Hour later, I'm on TikTok and people

744
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 3: are being like, oh my goodness, it's a double album,

745
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 3: and I'm like, what are you talking about. There were

746
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 3: only seventeen songs that I bought, and then there was

747
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 3: a different cover that they were putting in their tiktoks,

748
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 3: and so I went and looked and realized that fifteen

749
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 3: minutes later the double album dropped and there was no way, Mike,

750
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 3: if you would purchase that regular album to then get

751
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 3: the second album without repurchasing that whole album again, and

752
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 3: then you get the second album like it wouldn't be

753
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 3: It was thirteen ninety nine for the first album for

754
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 3: then those two hours, and then the double album was

755
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 3: fourteen ninety nine. Well, I already put in thirteen ninety nine.

756
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna put in another fifteen bucks just

757
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 3: to get this other album and get duplicate songs, which,

758
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 3: by the way, is really annoying to me when I

759
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 3: shuffle on my phone. I know people listen to music

760
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 3: a lot of different ways, but I still listen, like

761
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 3: through my iTunes and like, there are songs that I've

762
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,880
Speaker 3: downloaded for some reason I have twice on my phone, Like,

763
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 3: how in the world do I have this song twice?

764
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 3: And it had annoise the heck out of me?

765
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 2: Did you ignore the skip buttoned in? Because when I

766
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,360
Speaker 2: try to add another album, it'll say this is already in,

767
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 2: unless it's a live version, because then you know that

768
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 2: it's a different Sometimes albums are.

769
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,800
Speaker 3: Updated so it's not so they come in as duplicates. Anyway,

770
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 3: I if I would have waited fifteen minutes, I would

771
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 3: have found out that there was a double album and

772
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 3: then wouldn't have been ripped off by this sold I

773
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 3: actually used to off off. Yeah it did it did it?

774
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 3: Like it did make me mad, Like I could have

775
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 3: just bought the album again. And I'm like, well, I

776
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 3: thought that's the whole thing about the album release, like

777
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 3: you wait, like you're so excited for it, and for

778
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 3: someone who's not in the know that this was another

779
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 3: thing that could happen, just like you weren't necessarily in

780
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 3: the know of the physical thing. Like I feel like

781
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 3: a little okay, well, we were doing it with good

782
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 3: intentions and now we ended up getting screwed by it.

783
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, in this case, I mean, the song that goes

784
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 2: after Kim Kardashian might be worth the extra fifteen bucks

785
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 2: for you. Why is that pretty good? Is it scathing?

786
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 2: You know, a lot of folks are starting to sing

787
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 2: the Frozen classic let It Go, that it's been a decade,

788
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 2: let it go, Let it Go. But this was the

789
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 2: airing of the grievance to steal the sign Feldy in reference,

790
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 2: this was anybody that had wronged her as she gets

791
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 2: into the relationship with Kelsey and even you know Smith

792
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 2: on Friday Night, was like, was this thing because there

793
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 2: was an article about one of the songs that has

794
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,879
Speaker 2: a bunch of football metaphors and it's called the Alchemy. Yes, hey,

795
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: and it's like, are these about members of the Chiefs,

796
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 2: Like no calls them blokes. She dated a bunch of Englishmen,

797
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 2: so it's all shots and guys from past relationships. Not

798
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 2: saying these guys cut them all.

799
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, was like getting all the he like now these

800
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 3: Taylor this track? Now, well just because he lined up

801
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 3: off sides in a regular season game, like, hey, in

802
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 3: the end, have worked out for you?

803
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, So a couple of those lines were starting to

804
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 2: be interpreted as though they were shots at Kelsey's Kansas

805
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 2: City teammates. Folks looking for the not so secret messages

806
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 2: of it all but thirty one songs. But it's all

807
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 2: said and done. I just want my physical copies. I

808
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 2: know she's been under fire a little bit, as has

809
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 2: the music industry. Uh you know some of the contemporaries

810
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 2: saying why do we have to have ninety seven variants? Like, well,

811
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 2: so you buy them because you want a different cover,

812
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 2: you want a different color to the album, whatever permutations

813
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 2: you get in you know you you can always then

814
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 2: download the songs they become available on all of these

815
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 2: different mediums without having to buy them.

816
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaker 3: Careful what you wish for, because I want to throwback

817
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 3: helmets back in the NFL, and now it's the wild

818
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 3: Wild West.

819
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,959
Speaker 2: Dan's Wall of Helmets. We'll talk about that a little

820
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 2: bit later because we got more uniforms and we got

821
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 2: to get prefet's take on what the lions are cooking

822
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:26,720
Speaker 2: up now. The one helmet left me a little scared

823
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 2: when I.

824
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 3: Saw it back in black, at least for a few games.

825
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 2: There you go. More ACDC music on the way. He's

Speaker 2: see how many veteran receivers get traded. This week, The

839
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 2: Week of Intrigue begins. Dan byer full slate of things

840
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 2: on Sunday to launch us into a big week.

841
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,400
Speaker 3: Mike, the Week of Intrigue begins, but not at the

842
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,240
Speaker 3: top of the draft, at least, I don't think unless

843
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 3: the Chicago Bears are really pulling a fast one with us.

844
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 3: And this is what I think is I we love

845
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 3: the draft, we love everything that comes with it. But

846
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,720
Speaker 3: one of the great things about it is there's usually drama,

847
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 3: usually drama, and this year there just doesn't seem to

848
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 3: be any drama at number one. And I guess the

849
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 3: first it's almost a question, and I'll even pose it

850
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 3: to you and pose it to the listener. But if

851
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 3: we know Caleb Williams is going number one, why don't

852
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 3: we just make it official one it's been done before,

853
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 3: we know what his salary is going to be if

854
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 3: he's number one anyway, so there's not even like a

855
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 3: real negotiation. Why don't we just get this over with

856
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 3: and start focusing on pick number two, because that's where

857
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 3: the drama ends up starting. And I feel like with

858
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 3: us still sitting there waiting for number one, waiting for

859
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 3: the official announcement, I just don't feel like there's a

860
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 3: lot of drama at the top of the draft. And

861
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 3: I don't know why we wouldn't just allow the Bears

862
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 3: to take Caleb Williams since they've been on the clock

863
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 3: since the end of the regular season, and get it

864
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 3: and move on.

865
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 2: Well as the residence smartass here on Fox Sports Radio. Yes,

866
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 2: and having watched a long and tortured history of following

867
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,839
Speaker 2: Chicago sports in general, but certainly the Bears, I think

868
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 2: there's always just that point zero zero zero zero one

869
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 2: percent chance that they zag. I don't think they will,

870
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 2: but no, it could be. Right now, Kayleb Williams is

871
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 2: minus two, it would be the number one. Think Jayden

872
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 2: Daniels is seventy five to one as your next pick.

873
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's once the trade of Justin Fields became official,

874
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 2: the visit Keenan Allen showing up at is, you know,

875
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,919
Speaker 2: to hang out with him in Bear's gear just after

876
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 2: he'd gotten traded. Everything else, Yeah, it would seem all

877
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,919
Speaker 2: all systems are go. But it's the NFL. They want

878
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 2: to at least leave some shadow of doubt, I guess.

879
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 3: And as you mentioned, you and Jason Smith will be

880
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 3: on right after the you know, Fox Sports Radio special

881
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 3: draft presentation. The other part of that, it is a

882
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 3: TV show and you want to slot those ten minutes,

883
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 3: So if the pick has already been made, you're maybe

884
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 3: wasting the ten minutes. But this is what will happen.

885
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 3: The clock will the clock will take down to three

886
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 3: minutes on the first pick, and then all the shows,

887
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,320
Speaker 3: including ours here, will like what are the Bears waiting for?

888
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,439
Speaker 3: But you do want to fit it into that TV

889
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 3: window and make it work for you. But I don't

890
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 3: think that you're as far off base as maybe it

891
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 3: would seem, because you do want to exhaust every conversation.

892
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 3: And then that leads to me kind of to this

893
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 3: point as well, where I thought Chicago was going to

894
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 3: get a you know, blow your mind offer from the

895
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:33,720
Speaker 3: Washington Commanders because new ownership Gayla Williams from the area.

896
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 3: You're trying to make your mark if you're you know,

897
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 3: the new ownership group of the of the Commanders, and

898
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 3: I thought the Bears would seriously consider, especially if you're

899
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 3: only dropping one spot and depending where your EVL was,

900
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 3: we thought Ryan Poles was going to make his decision

901
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,919
Speaker 3: around the NFL Combine, which was the first week in March,

902
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 3: And that kind of goes in line to your point

903
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,720
Speaker 3: of the Justin Field trade, which happened in the middle

904
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 3: of March. When me think that they knew that they

905
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 3: were going to take Caleb Williams, Do you think that

906
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 3: they I mean this long ago?

907
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, we you and I have had

908
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 2: a couple of shows to hash this out. For those

909
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 2: that have missed the conversation along the way, I never

910
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 2: really thought there was this robust marketplace for Justin Fields.

911
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 2: Now might there have been some percentage in bears thinking of, well,

912
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 2: if we have him and we think he's turning a

913
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 2: corner and we keep continuity here. We had Keenan Allen,

914
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 2: we had Gerald Everett, we had DeAndre Swift. We got

915
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 2: all these pieces that we're building towards, and we still

916
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 2: have the number nine pick that if we trade number one,

917
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 2: we get more picks. And as much as we talk

918
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 2: about the quarterback clock, the all important you know, we

919
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 2: want to reset that clock right so we're not paying

920
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 2: the quarterback that big salary. Like in theory, you've now

921
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 2: added maybe if you if you hit let's just say

922
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 2: you hit on half of the draft picks you'd get.

923
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 2: You now have three or four or starters that are

924
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 2: on the rookie clock. So it kind of offsets sure

925
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 2: that dollar and cents game playing with the quarterback. Right

926
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,399
Speaker 2: in theory, if you've done your draft of valves right

927
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 2: and they become all twenty top twenty two players, then yes,

928
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 2: now you've got several starters that are on their rookie deals.

929
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 2: And I get it, you know the dollar and the

930
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 2: inflation to use that appropriate word here of what a

931
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 2: quarterback is versus everybody else. Yes, it's a different curve,

932
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,279
Speaker 2: but the point being that maybe you saw enough down

933
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 2: the back end from fields that he could be that

934
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:39,439
Speaker 2: leader going forward. And in the end, these are also

935
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 2: guys that want to keep their jobs, so they're not

936
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:46,839
Speaker 2: only resetting the quarterback clock in theory, they're resetting their own.

937
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 2: Now Iberflus, who knows what the feeling is there, but

938
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 2: the thought at least now you've got a defense. When

939
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 2: you brought in Montes what played much better down the

940
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 2: stretch and then offensively you've added all this weaponry and

941
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 2: now you just add the quarterback over the top to

942
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 2: where you go and compete. But yeah, I think it

943
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 2: happened pretty early in the in the evels and then

944
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 2: it was all right, wait and see and the desperate

945
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,440
Speaker 2: team that never came for the Justin Field side of it,

946
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 2: because that's really because once you got through the all

947
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 2: that movement of that week, when Fields finally got Dellts

948
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 2: like do you just not want it around the buildings?

949
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 2: That was like otherwise you're afraid, like that Caleb's going

950
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 2: to be mad or that someone's going to be mad,

951
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,399
Speaker 2: because otherwise, why would you not wait until the next

952
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 2: guy got hurt?

953
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 5: It?

954
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 2: So it's like we were talking about with the NBA Dan,

955
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,960
Speaker 2: the inevitability of at least one guy going down to

956
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,319
Speaker 2: an injury and saying, hey, this guy's much better than

957
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 2: going and signing guy who's sitting there flipping the TV

958
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:50,480
Speaker 2: channels on it.

959
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, I don't know why they didn't do that

960
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,319
Speaker 3: and trying to maximize because you would have gotten if

961
00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:00,879
Speaker 3: there was an injury in a training camp, which we've

962
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 3: seen before, and now guys aren't playing as much as

963
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 3: maybe they were five ten years ago in the preseason,

964
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 3: so maybe you're not going to get that injury, but

965
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:11,839
Speaker 3: in week one and week two that they're suresk will

966
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 3: be to some starting quarterback out there, and maybe it's

967
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,880
Speaker 3: a one that even had bigger aspirations. I thought that

968
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,959
Speaker 3: that should have been their plan all along. There's also

969
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 3: just the point Mike of this is this, you know,

970
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 3: the second straight year of them having the number one

971
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,719
Speaker 3: overall pick, and I bring you bring up Eberflus when

972
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 3: you draft Caleb Williams. It's different than what's happened in

973
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 3: Carolina because when Matt, excuse me, when you end up

974
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,840
Speaker 3: making the change with the Carolina Panthers and bringing in

975
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 3: Dave Canalis to try to, you know, cure Bryce Young

976
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 3: or to make Bryce Young work. If Matt Eberflus doesn't

977
00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 3: get through this season with the Bears, it's not going

978
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 3: to be a case of who can we bring in

979
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 3: to fix Caleb Williams. It's look at all of the

980
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 3: options we have for people who want to coach Caleb Williams.

981
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 3: Then it's not meant to be a knock on Bryce Young.

982
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 3: But that was the thought process of like, who do

983
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 3: we bring in now? Because we've given up so much

984
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,439
Speaker 3: to bring Bryce Young in. Who can be our head

985
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 3: coach that can now cure us or turn around this

986
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 3: pick that could be could end up being an awful

987
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 3: pick for our franchise if we don't get our quarterback right,

988
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 3: like the drafting of Caleb Williams. If Matty Eberflus isn't,

989
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 3: there is still appealing where I don't think that was

990
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,919
Speaker 3: the case in Carolina, where yeah, it's nice to maybe

991
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 3: have Bryce Young, But now you're wondering other limitations, other

992
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 3: questions about you know, is the size thing really pulling in?

993
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 3: If you have that job available in Caleb Williams as

994
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 3: your quarterback, you're going to be You're going to have

995
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 3: an overflow of candidates for that job if it's not

996
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,560
Speaker 3: Maddy Eberflus next year, you know, a hundred percent.

997
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 2: And look again, you know, mocking my Chicago fandom. The

998
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 2: willingness to hold on to a coach, manager or whatever

999
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 2: or through miserable performances because there's a year left on

1000
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 2: the deal. Is the Chicago way. Sure, that's just what

1001
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,600
Speaker 2: they do. So you know a lot of the conversation

1002
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 2: even during last season was you know, no, they're gonna

1003
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 2: fire Ebaflus. I'm like, they won't. Maybe they should, but

1004
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 2: they won't. And then you saw once Montes Sweat showed

1005
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:24,560
Speaker 2: up and I am extolling the virtues of Monte Sweat here.

1006
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:26,400
Speaker 2: And then you had a couple of days where they

1007
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 2: didn't sign the extension right away, so it seemed like

1008
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 2: nothing was in place, so again questions on the front office.

1009
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 2: They eventually got the job done, but what that defense

1010
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 2: looked like in the second half of the year, night

1011
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 2: and day from from early on now, I still want

1012
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,239
Speaker 2: to know what happened to Alan Williams? The question I

1013
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,240
Speaker 2: am going to ask forever right, he was the Bears

1014
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 2: defensive coordinator that went missing under very murky circumstances, never

1015
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 2: to be seen again.

1016
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 3: You're gonna be known in later life as the guy

1017
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 3: at the Bears games with the where's Alan Williams sign

1018
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 3: and at me. Then dad's around the country are gonna

1019
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 3: be like, I don't know, don't worry about it.

1020
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 2: So no nobody knows who other than me. He's literally

1021
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 2: wearing a shirt that says wears Alan. I just want

1022
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:13,320
Speaker 2: to just put a bow on it. Just tell me

1023
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:14,280
Speaker 2: what the hell happened?

1024
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:18,479
Speaker 3: I just the whole, the whole Caleb Williams like turn

1025
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 3: of we thought that he was gonna be the first

1026
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,080
Speaker 3: overall pick. So it's not a it's not a huge shock.

1027
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 3: My whole like amazement was just how just how it

1028
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 3: turned that way because this again, this was a team

1029
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:35,319
Speaker 3: that a year ago traded the number one overall pick,

1030
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 3: So I wouldn't necessarily put it past them to do

1031
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 3: that again. But I don't know if you can do

1032
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 3: that two years in a row, especially with the even

1033
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:51,400
Speaker 3: if Kileb Williams doesn't pan out there, I don't know.

1034
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,239
Speaker 3: Sometimes history isn't kind of teams. Like people are still

1035
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 3: mad that the Blazers took Greg Odin over Kevin Durant.

1036
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 3: I'm sorry that was the pick. Greg Odin was the guy,

1037
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 3: like it was. There may have been red flags with injuries,

1038
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 3: but he was the guy. Sorry, you have to take

1039
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams like and that's like the like the the

1040
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,440
Speaker 3: point of it, and it just all of aud just

1041
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 3: became common thought. I don't want to say group think,

1042
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,320
Speaker 3: but it was it felt that way that all of

1043
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 3: a sudden, it was just it was no longer even

1044
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 3: a question. And I don't know if it was the

1045
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:24,439
Speaker 3: Justin Fields trade, mic, because I still thought other teams

1046
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 3: would maybe try Chicago to see what they could get

1047
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 3: to try to get number one. And Poles obviously had

1048
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 3: showed previously that it'd be willing to move. But all

1049
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 3: of a sudden, it just, you know, became a done deal.

1050
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 3: And I just I didn't know when we got to

1051
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 3: that point. Maybe it maybe it was the day that

1052
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 3: Justin Fields was traded for you know, pennies to the

1053
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers. But it just to me, I thought it

1054
00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 3: was more of a dilemma than what we have, you

1055
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 3: know now, just four days before the draft.

1056
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just seemed right about that time, he got

1057
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 2: a little more boisterous in clapping back on people in

1058
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,839
Speaker 2: social media, right and standing up and defending himself because

1059
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 2: what do we do. We've done this, You and I've

1060
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 2: been in this visit a long time. We love to build, build, build,

1061
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 2: I mean Caitlin Clark being one of the greatest examples recently.

1062
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 2: Everybody was on board until they weren't sure. Right, I'm

1063
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 2: tired of this.

1064
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 3: She has done anything, and it's everybody responding around her.

1065
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Tim McGrath wears a jersey to a concert the

1066
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 2: other night and people lose their minds. Yeah, although if

1067
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 2: you ordered one of those jerseys, you know you're not

1068
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 2: getting them till August or September.

1069
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 3: And by the way, when I meant when I say

1070
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 3: Caitlyn Clark hasn't done anything, I mean she hasn't done

1071
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,759
Speaker 3: anything wrong. Like everybody else is trying to, you know,

1072
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 3: latch on to her, and all she's done is just

1073
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,240
Speaker 3: gone out and play basketball like everybody's.

1074
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 2: Yes sign, every audience or whatever. And look, I think

1075
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 2: the heat that it brings from the saltiness of the

1076
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:47,160
Speaker 2: w NBA veterans is a good thing and whatever. But

1077
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 2: just the point being that we we build folks up

1078
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:52,719
Speaker 2: and then we just try to find the cracks. Sure,

1079
00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 2: I mean it's certainly in the draft process, that's always

1080
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 2: the case. Yes, And so for Caleb Williams, you know, emotion,

1081
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,920
Speaker 2: how much do you blame Lincoln Riley all of it

1082
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,279
Speaker 2: for him not going to pressers? Because if I don't,

1083
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:07,919
Speaker 2: if I don't have to go to the oppressor after

1084
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,439
Speaker 2: a you know, a fifty two forty eight loss or whatever,

1085
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 2: all right, I'm opting out like if I if I'm

1086
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 2: a quarterback, Like what am I getting from that. Wait,

1087
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 2: I could leave an hour earlier. So yeah, so I

1088
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 2: can only blame him so much. In the moment, it

1089
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:24,440
Speaker 2: seemed like a bigger deal. But the more you get

1090
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:26,759
Speaker 2: away from it's like, now, Lincoln Riley just does not

1091
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 2: run a tight ship, is really I think what it

1092
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 2: comes down to. But you know, for Caleb Williams come

1093
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 2: into this next next phase of things, the separation seems

1094
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 2: fairly clear. Yes, yes, when we when we get down

1095
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 2: to it. As much as Daniels was a monster statistically

1096
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 2: this year, well because why don't we do that? Why

1097
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 2: don't we go to Washington coming out next? All right,

1098
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 2: continue with not quite doing a mock draft, but kind

1099
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 2: of raising hands at some of the stuff because Washington,

1100
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,239
Speaker 2: that one seems a little more unsettled as we get

1101
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,160
Speaker 2: closer Draft day. He's Dan Byer, I'm by Karma. This

1102
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio. Welcome back

Speaker 2: and f one and a little bit later they're at

1107
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 2: Talladega full slate of Major League Baseball, and then we're

1108
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 2: in the playoffs for the NBA and NHL, and it

1109
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:33,319
Speaker 2: is the beginning of Draft week. The final iterations mock

1110
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 2: drafts ninety seven point zero coming up on every podcast

00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,400
Speaker 2: and website. I will do one because I like to

1112
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,479
Speaker 2: show that I know nothing like everybody else. But guys

1113
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,000
Speaker 2: that do know something, Hey, you know what? Come in

1114
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 2: later this week. You've got the Fox Sports Radio Draft

1115
00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:55,279
Speaker 2: Night Live part of the coverage here on Fox Sports Radio,

1116
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 2: presented by Express Pros, the official employment agency. Fox Sports

1117
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 2: Radio's draft coverage led by Jay Glazer with all the

1118
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,840
Speaker 2: inside Steve Khime, LeVar Arrington, and Rob Stone before Jason

1119
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 2: Smith and I come on for a couple hours to

1120
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 2: get after it Nan, and we started with the Bears

1121
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 2: number one pick seems locked in Stone unless it isn't,

1122
00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 2: and I kind of hope it isn't because then all

1123
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 2: hellic ensues and I'll get a first crack at it

1124
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 2: on national radio when we get to kick off. But

1125
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 2: in the interim, let's just say Caleb Williams to the

1126
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,279
Speaker 2: Bears at number two. A bit of intrigue, right, we

1127
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:35,280
Speaker 2: had we have reports that Jaden Daniel's not exactly enamored

1128
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:38,279
Speaker 2: with the good folks in Washington. The fact that you

1129
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 2: bring in four guys and you go to top Golf

1130
00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 2: and you have all these kind of everybody's encroaching on

1131
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:47,320
Speaker 2: my world, I'd have my eyebrow raised, I think a

1132
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 2: little bit too.

1133
00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:52,040
Speaker 3: I thought that that story was interesting, But I also

1134
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 3: thought it was interesting Mike, Are you trying to milk

1135
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:58,440
Speaker 3: your best offer out there? Are you trying to say, like,

1136
00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:01,800
Speaker 3: all right, we maybe they secret love Jaden Daniels, but

1137
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,240
Speaker 3: not as much as they would love another team trying

1138
00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:09,840
Speaker 3: to move up and trying to get to that. Yes, absolutely,

1139
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 3: And I think that in terms of where where they're

1140
00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 3: picking if now, if what we think is going to

1141
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:24,160
Speaker 3: happen with Minnesota, in terms of maybe the Vikings trying

1142
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 3: to move up, we've always had this spot of sitting there.

1143
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 3: All right, these are the spots that you can move

1144
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,440
Speaker 3: up and trade. Maybe can get up to four with Arizona.

1145
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:36,560
Speaker 3: Maybe New England will move off of it. But nobody's

1146
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 3: talking about number two. And I just wondered if maybe

1147
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 3: that was a way of them being like, okay, and look,

1148
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 3: we're still open for business. Because it doesn't make a

1149
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 3: lot of sense if Cale Williams is minus twenty thousand

1150
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 3: unless there is a Commander's Bears deal, which is the

1151
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 3: deal that I actually thought at the start of the

1152
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 3: year was going to be the trade that we would

1153
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 3: see that Washington would move up. But I just wondered,

1154
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 3: if it's one of those own out there, let's just

1155
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 3: let's because people are starting to put Jaden Daniels pencil

1156
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 3: him in some maybe using ink at number two. Maybe

1157
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,240
Speaker 3: it was their way of trying to put it out

1158
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 3: there to be like, hey, this is this is not

1159
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:17,520
Speaker 3: necessarily a done deal, and if you want to do business,

1160
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:18,760
Speaker 3: maybe we would listen.

1161
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a brief period this week where Daniels

1162
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:24,479
Speaker 2: and Drake May had the same odds for the number

1163
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 2: two pick. Right now, Daniel's a short favorite. But I

1164
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 2: thought the arrival of four guys on campus was an

1165
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:37,200
Speaker 2: interesting strategy for Washington. You know, are you going to

1166
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 2: do it dark Knight style, A couple of pool cues

1167
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 2: get broken, make it quick, last man standing is our

1168
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 2: draft pick Hunger Game style or you know the Battle

1169
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 2: of the Network Stars where we've got to you know,

1170
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,240
Speaker 2: the Pugel sticks and everything else that we bust out.

1171
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 3: I guess the rule of thumb is to just be yourself, right,

1172
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 3: because in the end, if you're not yourself, you pretend

1173
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:03,280
Speaker 3: to be someone. If they end up liking the person

1174
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:04,960
Speaker 3: that you pretend to be, then they may not like

1175
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:06,280
Speaker 3: the person that you actually are.

1176
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 2: But you just have to keep that act up. Some folks, look,

1177
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 2: you know, the public persona and what they like or

1178
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 2: profess to adhere to much different than the person behind

1179
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:20,160
Speaker 2: the behind the scenes in a.

1180
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 3: Lot of different worlds. It is odd. I do think

1181
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:26,280
Speaker 3: I will this. It's I know, in the grand scheme

1182
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 3: of things, it doesn't matter, and all that matters is production,

1183
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 3: what you do on the field, who you are, how

1184
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,480
Speaker 3: you deal with your teammates and whatever. But that Heisman

1185
00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:40,040
Speaker 3: Trophy label, I do think it helps a little. So

1186
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,800
Speaker 3: like if you're a Washington Commander's team and you're trying

1187
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 3: to trying to hype up, you know again, new season

1188
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,280
Speaker 3: and a new ownership and this is our this is

1189
00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 3: our our leaping point, I think that helps. I'm not

1190
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 3: saying that you would take Jayden Daniels over Drake may

1191
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 3: just because he won the Heisman Trophy. But again, you're

1192
00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 3: talking about some Cachet. But to your point of of

1193
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 3: them just getting back to having the four guys together

1194
01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,360
Speaker 3: and having him in the group, you have to be

1195
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 3: yourself in that scenario. I just don't know what you

1196
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 3: would draw from that. If you're Washington in seeing how

1197
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 3: you are, maybe you're trying to see if you're competitive.

1198
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:17,080
Speaker 3: Maybe that's you know, that could be the sort of nature.

1199
01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 3: I just I think it would be weird. I wouldn't

1200
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 3: be completely off the rails of being like, yeah, I

1201
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 3: don't know if Washington's the thing for me because of it.

1202
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, just from a you want the attention to be

1203
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 2: on you, Right, I'm coming in for a day. You're

1204
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,320
Speaker 2: trying to sell me a bit on your team. Look,

1205
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 2: in the end, it's the draft, and unless I decide

1206
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 2: I don't want to play football, there's only so much

1207
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 2: I can do. Yes, Right, in terms of being obstinate,

1208
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 2: holding out, trying to force the issue not necessarily something

1209
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 2: we've seen with regularity, although it happens every twenty one years, right,

1210
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 2: because remember with Caleb Williams, there was a brief period

1211
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 2: where folks were trying to espouse on different channels that

1212
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 2: maybe he wasn't looking at the bears with such rosy

1213
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:04,840
Speaker 2: colored glasses.

1214
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,800
Speaker 3: Sure, try to make your way out.

1215
01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:10,680
Speaker 2: And that changed pretty fast. But you know, when you

1216
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 2: get to it, right with Daniels, you got an electrifying

1217
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:17,360
Speaker 2: player obviously can do a lot of things. Washington has

1218
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 2: some skill position players, right. He's not going to a team,

1219
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 2: you know, devoid of talent. You're going to. The NFC East,

1220
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:29,240
Speaker 2: as we know, is also a mess.

1221
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the interesting part of it is because I

1222
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 3: think that if you were to look at it two

1223
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:38,400
Speaker 3: years ago, man, NFC East, Philly, Dallas, what you're dealing

1224
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:39,920
Speaker 3: with now, You're like, Okay, we don't know if the

1225
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 3: Giants have hit rock bottom yet.

1226
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 2: They might, but even two years ago, all of a

1227
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:49,480
Speaker 2: sudden like stable, is that an upwards trajectory is sustainable

1228
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:49,680
Speaker 2: or not?

1229
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:53,520
Speaker 3: We feel Philly's falling apart right, Like, I mean, I

1230
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 3: just don't get the sense that things are going to

1231
01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:57,960
Speaker 3: be glued back together and find there could be wrong.

1232
01:01:58,280 --> 01:01:59,800
Speaker 3: And then obviously Dallas is Dallas.

1233
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 2: They're gonna win their number of games and there's what

1234
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,040
Speaker 2: it matters. Yeah, So for Washington, the time is there.

1235
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:09,320
Speaker 2: But I do I don't think you can discount the

1236
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,320
Speaker 2: Heisman side of it right, because you're trying to sell

1237
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 2: a product, you're trying to sell a fan base that

1238
01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 2: you're entering a new era in so many ways, and

1239
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:23,240
Speaker 2: just in your distancing yourself as far as you can

1240
01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:26,120
Speaker 2: from Snyder in every way, shape and form.

1241
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 3: I think if if you're you know, if you're the

1242
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 3: front office and you're making that, you know, making that decision,

1243
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. But if you're marketing, if you're in

1244
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 3: season ticket sales, if you're in any of those, if

1245
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,120
Speaker 3: you're Josh Harris the owner, how great to have that, Hey,

1246
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:46,880
Speaker 3: we have the highest And by the way, it's not

1247
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:50,959
Speaker 3: like that. It's a you know, an unbelievably great track

1248
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:55,320
Speaker 3: record of quarterbacks and Heisman bears could be you know,

1249
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 3: with Kateleb Williams all have their own Heisman Trophy winner.

1250
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,920
Speaker 3: The translation to the NFL could obviously be a different story.

1251
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 3: But I do think that it helps and it gives

1252
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:06,320
Speaker 3: a little bit of his azz to those departments.

1253
01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,560
Speaker 2: Now, I did appreciate this week Caleb Williams also saying, Hey,

1254
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 2: I'm gunning for all the accolades in the history of

1255
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:17,200
Speaker 2: Number twelve and in my timeline, one after another, pictures

1256
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:22,680
Speaker 2: of Eric Kramer, former Bears quarterback in the number twelve. Yes, statistically,

1257
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 2: while Jay Cutler, you know, had some some moments with

1258
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:29,040
Speaker 2: the Bears. Statistically, you go back and Eric Kramer had

1259
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 2: a couple of really big years for the Bears back

1260
01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:35,160
Speaker 2: in the day. That's so that's the number twelve fan,

1261
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,800
Speaker 2: you know, instead of being Tom Brady, it's the wink

1262
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 2: and a nod.

1263
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,720
Speaker 3: You're right, an like I thought like Eric Kramer had

1264
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:44,280
Speaker 3: more success with the Lions than he than he'd like

1265
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:47,120
Speaker 3: that the tenure was a lot shorter than I remembered.

1266
01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 3: But to your point, because maybe the Gears, I was

1267
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 3: thinking that it was Chicago.

1268
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 2: There you go, number twelve. All right. Coming up next,

1269
01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:55,920
Speaker 2: we'll look at the third pick because Dan alluded to

1270
01:03:56,000 --> 01:04:00,800
Speaker 2: it before. What does New England do? If you me, yeah,

1271
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 2: it's uh any and all comers at Dan Byron Fox

1272
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 2: is where you find Dan find me over at Swollendome.

1273
01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 2: We'll get to the number three pick, but first let's

1274
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,600
Speaker 2: go over to Isaac Low and grond get an update

1275
01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,360
Speaker 2: of what's trending in our sporting universe.

1276
01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 7: What's trending? Playoffs? Playoffs? Playoffs, playoffs? They tipped off in

1277
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 7: the NBA on Saturday night, with Denver defeating the Los

1278
01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:23,320
Speaker 7: Angeles Lakers one, fourteen to two one. Thank you, Jim,

1279
01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 7: very good boy. You talk about something that is always timeless.

1280
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,080
Speaker 7: Nikai Jokich timeless in his own right thirty two points,

1281
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:34,600
Speaker 7: twelve rebounds, and seven assists. It was Denver's ninth straight

1282
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 7: victory over the Lakers head to head. Earlier Saturday night

1283
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 7: at Madison Square Garden, the New York Knicks defeated the

1284
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:43,120
Speaker 7: Philadelphia seventy six Ers one eleven to one.

1285
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:43,600
Speaker 1: Four.

1286
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,480
Speaker 7: Game one of the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Saturday night

1287
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,720
Speaker 7: saw the Boston Bruins topple the Toronto Maple Leafs five

1288
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,880
Speaker 7: to one. On Major League Baseball Saturday night, the Atlanta

1289
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,480
Speaker 7: Braves defeated the Texas Rangers five to two. The Braves

1290
01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:58,200
Speaker 7: on a six game winning streak the Toronto Blue Jays

1291
01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:01,640
Speaker 7: with a five to two victory at Diego. Blue Jay's

1292
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:04,280
Speaker 7: starting pitcher Jose Barrios got the win. He is now

1293
01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:07,919
Speaker 7: four and OH with an ERA of zero point eighty five.

1294
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 7: Boxing Saturday night, heavy underdog Ryan Garcia upset the previously

1295
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 7: thirty one OH Devin Hainey by decision. The colorful. Garcia

1296
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:23,280
Speaker 7: hired four violinists to play in his locker room before

1297
01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 7: the fight. I actually do the same thing here at

1298
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,440
Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio. He then proceeded to knock down Haney

1299
01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 7: three times during the bout. Garcia was not eligible to

1300
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:36,040
Speaker 7: win Haney's junior welterweight title belt because he weighed too

1301
01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:38,520
Speaker 7: much at the Way in Friday, the same way in

1302
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 7: where Garcia drank a beer while on stage, and drinking

1303
01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 7: was still on Garcia's mind after his victory.

1304
01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 5: I walked through the fire and still howd it down

1305
01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,280
Speaker 5: and still drink every day and still beat him and

1306
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:50,760
Speaker 5: I I did everything.

1307
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 8: Drank every single night, went out on the first Monday

1308
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:55,360
Speaker 8: and a Tuesday and drank, and what happened?

1309
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:55,640
Speaker 3: I won?

1310
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,000
Speaker 10: I necessarily am I proud of that, But I'm just

1311
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 10: saying this is it was a statement to show you

1312
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:02,400
Speaker 10: it's right.

1313
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:04,040
Speaker 3: I'll do whatever I want. I still win.

1314
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 7: Ryan Garcia role model back to you guys, hey.

1315
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:12,439
Speaker 2: Man show and live your life at Isaac Glowing Crowd

1316
01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:14,400
Speaker 2: where you find him on Twitter for all the latest.

1317
01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 3: But was it was it worth a million and a

1318
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:19,520
Speaker 3: half and then not being able to get the belt

1319
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:22,880
Speaker 3: to do this like the drinking of the beer was

1320
01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 3: while he's on the scale. I don't know if the

1321
01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:28,360
Speaker 3: scale just continued to move as he was going down,

1322
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 3: but I mean it's just still. I mean, even if

1323
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 3: you were a pound over, would have saved you a

1324
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:35,640
Speaker 3: million dollars.

1325
01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 2: But did he cover that with either a sponsorship deal

1326
01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:44,080
Speaker 2: or something else that flowed out? Maybe, Matt, are you

1327
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:47,960
Speaker 2: you're weighing the million, like literally weighing the million and

1328
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:52,040
Speaker 2: a half dollars now, versus building the legend of a

1329
01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:55,480
Speaker 2: guy who just doesn't he doesn't give a damn. It's

1330
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:57,120
Speaker 2: Sunday Morning Radio. I'll keep it clean.

1331
01:06:57,360 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 3: It is, It is quite. It would be the angle

1332
01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:03,840
Speaker 3: to be like, I'm gonna throw away my shot at

1333
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 3: the belt by doing this. But whatever has happened, and

1334
01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:11,840
Speaker 3: Hani was a big time favorite.

1335
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:13,440
Speaker 2: Well that's the thing though, now that you showed you

1336
01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:17,760
Speaker 2: absolutely wrecked him as you duck him fight a bunch

1337
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 2: of tomato cans, dobato rematch.

1338
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what I'd be be worried if they're like, hey,

1339
01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:27,440
Speaker 3: look this worked out, well look at it. I'm just

1340
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:29,960
Speaker 3: going to continue in this wild way. You know, I'm

1341
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,200
Speaker 3: sure somewhere hoping that it would serve as a wake

1342
01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:34,760
Speaker 3: up call, but I don't know if it did.

1343
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:39,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hany refuted the report that he had a busted

1344
01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 2: jaw after the fight. Still swollen. Still an embarrassing loss

1345
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:47,880
Speaker 2: if there's one thing to lose, like you got knocked

1346
01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 2: down and you got obliterated.

1347
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:52,840
Speaker 3: If he said it, then I would agree because if

1348
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 3: it was broken, I don't know how much you could

1349
01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:54,800
Speaker 3: actually talk.

1350
01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:58,600
Speaker 2: Right, that's a your point, holding up a sign like

1351
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:03,320
Speaker 2: me with he where's apple? See exactly?

1352
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:03,680

1358

Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday Buyer and Harmon. You'll see this one

1359
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:24,599
Speaker 2: posted right after we get off the air. We think

1360
01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,000
Speaker 2: Shay and Chris making a sound so pretty this morning.

1361
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 2: Now number three the New England Patriots. They're in the

1362
01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:34,479
Speaker 2: I think the most interesting spot right. I think we

1363
01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:39,919
Speaker 2: can agree Williams and probably leaning towards ink On Daniels

1364
01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:44,679
Speaker 2: at the number two slot again barring some huge haul

1365
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 2: that either team would be able to get even with

1366
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:50,120
Speaker 2: each other. But for the third slot, I look at

1367
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 2: the Patriots and I'm looking at the way the roster is,

1368
01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 2: and certainly it's been skeward for years of what Bill

1369
01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:01,400
Speaker 2: Belichick wrought as a coach versus Bill the GM. And

1370
01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:04,320
Speaker 2: you're still miles from anywhere, and we're talking about the

1371
01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:08,559
Speaker 2: NFC East and where it's muddled. Right, Cowboys didn't make

1372
01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:13,920
Speaker 2: any significant moves to get better. Eagles seems like there's

1373
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:17,120
Speaker 2: a dumpster on fire floating in a river. And then

1374
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:19,320
Speaker 2: obviously the Giants being what they are, that you can

1375
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:22,439
Speaker 2: go get the quarterback and maybe push yourself forward. For

1376
01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:25,880
Speaker 2: the Patriots in the AFC East, that does not seem

1377
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:28,840
Speaker 2: to be the case. So to me, I'm trying to

1378
01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:32,960
Speaker 2: find the whatever suitor it is Denver, Oakland, Minnesota and saying,

1379
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:35,960
Speaker 2: come and give me a bucket of balls, i e.

1380
01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 2: A bunch of draft picks, and take this from me.

1381
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,479
Speaker 3: Would you if it was, let's say you were picking eleventh,

1382
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:45,880
Speaker 3: you strike a deal with Minnesota and you end up

1383
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:49,120
Speaker 3: dropping back, would you look at bo Nix or Michael

1384
01:09:49,160 --> 01:09:50,880
Speaker 3: Pennix at all in that spot?

1385
01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:53,040
Speaker 2: I think I could look at Pennox at that point.

1386
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:55,639
Speaker 3: The only thing that I am concerned about that aspect

1387
01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:58,679
Speaker 3: is how much like how different is that than Mac Jones,

1388
01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 3: Like in terms of like the theory. I'm not saying

1389
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:05,280
Speaker 3: that Bonix or Michael Pennix are gonna be Mac Jones.

1390
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:08,679
Speaker 3: It's just the way of thinking, you know, with the organization.

1391
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:11,040
Speaker 2: Well, I think I can look at them there, assuming

1392
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:15,280
Speaker 2: I've gotten a decent haul and that I trust the

1393
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,639
Speaker 2: evaluation process of Wolf and Company now that they're gonna

1394
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:20,920
Speaker 2: find me starters. Again, going back to the Bears conversation

1395
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:22,840
Speaker 2: that we had a little bit in terms of building

1396
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:25,719
Speaker 2: you're all twenty two because you're not a quarterback away

1397
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,640
Speaker 2: and when we talk about the all important clock, and

1398
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 2: it's a tired conversation to a degree, but it's true,

1399
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 2: is that for mac Jones, I don't know that we'll

1400
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:37,960
Speaker 2: ever really be able to know how good he could

1401
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 2: have been in New England because that roster stunk. Yeah,

1402
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,320
Speaker 2: the coordinator decision, that's stunk. But they did that man

1403
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 2: no favors. And I'm not saying he was certainly going

1404
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:50,400
Speaker 2: to become a top ten guy, but coming off his

1405
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:52,720
Speaker 2: rookie year, there was at least some hope that he

1406
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:56,719
Speaker 2: could be a functional above average we can eke out wins.

1407
01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:58,280
Speaker 2: He may not win us a ton of games, but

1408
01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,400
Speaker 2: he ain't gonna lose his games if we have the

1409
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,360
Speaker 2: roster in place to get things done and Bill coach

1410
01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:05,320
Speaker 2: the hell out of the defense. Problem is, he never

1411
01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:07,920
Speaker 2: really gave him anything outside of Stevenson on the offense

1412
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:09,120
Speaker 2: that was worth a dance.

1413
01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 3: I will take your your answer, and that is that

1414
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:17,639
Speaker 3: is fair. That is right there. I saw our buddy

1415
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:21,160
Speaker 3: Jason Stewart here posted a draft got a draft grade

1416
01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:24,439
Speaker 3: of Patrick Mahomes when he was drafted by the Chiefs

1417
01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:27,120
Speaker 3: and it was a whoever did the the eval said

1418
01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 3: it was the pick was great at a C minus.

1419
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:33,439
Speaker 3: If Patrick Mahomes would have been in maybe any other

1420
01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 3: place but Kansas City, maybe that comes to fruition, just

1421
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,720
Speaker 3: like maybe if mac Jones ended up going to San Francisco, right,

1422
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,760
Speaker 3: maybe it's a completely different story. So completely completely fair.

1423
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we talk about fit and you know,

1424
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:49,000
Speaker 2: the coaching and all of that is supposed to matter

1425
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:52,439
Speaker 2: so much, Yet we still want to bash the quarterback

1426
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:54,519
Speaker 2: that doesn't work out what it did. Like I can

1427
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:56,200
Speaker 2: only bash Zach Wilson so much.

1428
01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 3: He's a jet yep.

1429
01:11:58,120 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 2: Does he look like he's a guy that could be tryed.

1430
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 2: I don't know what. He's still a year and a

1431
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:03,840
Speaker 2: half younger than the rest of these guys that are

1432
01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:06,719
Speaker 2: getting drafted this year, right, and he had the COVID

1433
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:09,800
Speaker 2: year and all of that. There's so many different qualifiers again,

1434
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:13,519
Speaker 2: reasons versus excuses. He's Dan Byer, I'm Mike Carmon. Here,

1435
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:17,000
Speaker 2: it's Fox Sports Sunday, Fox Sports Radio. Not everyone can

1436
01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:20,280
Speaker 2: say we're number one, but a select few sure can.

1437
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:24,439
Speaker 2: And we'll explain that next here on Fox Sports Radio. Hey,

01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:43,320
Speaker 2: Pro Football Hall of Fame voter. He's covered the NFL

1444
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 2: a long time. He's got his thoughts on the draft

1445
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:50,080
Speaker 2: and the processes. As we go, Kevin O'Connell had some

1446
01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:52,840
Speaker 2: great stuff while talking at a church. So much to

1447
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 2: do in the final hour, but for now, I take

1448
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:58,679
Speaker 2: the long stick microphone made popular in the seventies along

1449
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 2: with shag carpeting, brown draped and handed over to my

Speaker 3: is Chris, Shay and Isaac making up the Fox family today.

1455
01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:19,440
Speaker 3: Three strikes and you're out, but there is a pass available,

1456
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,639
Speaker 3: But honestly, today I'm going to remove the pass.

1457
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:23,040
Speaker 1: Really.

1458
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:26,600
Speaker 3: The reason being is I think I was kind of

1459
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:32,400
Speaker 3: gentle with you guys today. Top eleven answers on the board,

1460
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:37,160
Speaker 3: and there are really only fifteen answers. I want you

1461
01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:40,200
Speaker 3: guys to name the Western Conference teams in the NBA

1462
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:44,400
Speaker 3: that have claimed the number one seed in the West

1463
01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:49,600
Speaker 3: since two thousand, so that means eleven have four have

1464
01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:54,439
Speaker 3: not give me the eleven teams that have at least

1465
01:13:54,479 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 3: one point between the year two thousand and right now

1466
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:00,679
Speaker 3: have been a number one seed in the NBA playoffs.

1467
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:04,120
Speaker 3: Excuse me, in the Western Conference NBA playoffs. Mike Carmen,

01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 3: All right, take the thunder show me. Okay, see, we're

1471
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,120
Speaker 3: gonna we should have a lot of right answers to

1472
01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:15,680
Speaker 3: start this. Yes, let's go over to Chris Perfets.

1473
01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 11: Oh sorry, I had to remember which microphone I actually had.

1474
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:20,839
Speaker 11: Let's go with the Clippers.

1475
01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:24,559
Speaker 3: The Clippers, all right, a team that we know has

1476
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 3: had great, a great run as of late. Is it

1477
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,920
Speaker 3: the Clippers? No, they are one of the four that

1478
01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:35,599
Speaker 3: have not had a numberless off the number one overall seed.

1479
01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:39,400
Speaker 3: So one strike over to Shay Shay, number one overall

1480
01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:42,400
Speaker 3: seed in the in the West, it's two thousand. Let's

1481
01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:45,240
Speaker 3: go the Warriors. That's the Warriors. You gotta be right,

1482
01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:49,320
Speaker 3: show me Golden State. Absolutely a bunch of times. Golden State,

1483
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:51,840
Speaker 3: the number one overall seed. Over to the news desk

1484
01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:52,680
Speaker 3: and Isaac Low and Kron.

1485
01:14:52,840 --> 01:14:56,000
Speaker 7: Let's go the two thousand and two Sacramento Kings.

1486
01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:03,240
Speaker 3: To be the pred you work, show me Sacramento. He

1487
01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:05,760
Speaker 3: even put the year in there for you'all. All right,

1488
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:08,720
Speaker 3: off and running one strike, Mike Harmon over to you.

1489
01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:12,040
Speaker 2: Spurs had to at some point, even if Popovich didn't

1490
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:12,320
Speaker 2: want it.

1491
01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:16,240
Speaker 3: You'd think show me the San Antonio Spurs. Kind of

1492
01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:19,200
Speaker 3: two stints, not only in the the twenty oughts, but

1493
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:22,280
Speaker 3: also in the twenty teens as well. San Antonio getting

1494
01:15:22,280 --> 01:15:24,439
Speaker 3: a number one seed. Back over to Chris.

1495
01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:27,519
Speaker 11: I'm worried about adding another strike here, but I'm just

1496
01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:29,840
Speaker 11: gonna keep going off the board just because i don't

1497
01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:31,559
Speaker 11: want to like take the big answers yet.

1498
01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 3: Dallas Mavericks. Dallas Mavericks. That's a really, really good guess.

1499
01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:37,839
Speaker 3: We know that they won its title in twenty eleven.

1500
01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:41,120
Speaker 3: Show me the Dallas Mavericks. But they weren't the number

1501
01:15:41,160 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 3: one seed then. They were four years prior when they

1502
01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:46,920
Speaker 3: were ousted from the first round by the Golden State Warriors. Dallas, though,

1503
01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:51,000
Speaker 3: was a number one seed. Over to Shay. Let's let's

1504
01:15:51,160 --> 01:15:55,919
Speaker 3: do the Nuggies, the Nuggets, the Nuggets, Yeah, nugg Nuggies, Nuggets,

1505
01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:58,599
Speaker 3: however you want to put it. Show me Denver there

1506
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:02,400
Speaker 3: you are, all right, Rugget's doing so just a year ago,

1507
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:05,040
Speaker 3: Denver getting the number one overall seed in the West.

1508
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,120
Speaker 3: Over to Isaac Lohankron.

1509
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:11,000
Speaker 7: Well, let's go back to two thousand and the Lakers.

1510
01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:13,960
Speaker 3: The Lakers, all right, show me the Los Angeles Lakers.

1511
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:17,599
Speaker 3: Also in twenty twenty in the bubble season, they were

1512
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:21,639
Speaker 3: number one overall seed. Of the Lakers and possibly others.

1513
01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:24,040
Speaker 3: I didn't write all of them down. The Lakers are

1514
01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:26,240
Speaker 3: off the board. We'll do a bit of a reset here.

1515
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 3: What we want is the top eleven answers the teams

1516
01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:31,680
Speaker 3: for the Western Conference that have been the number one

1517
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 3: overall seed in the West entering the NBA playoffs dating

1518
01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:39,040
Speaker 3: back again to two thousand. Okay, see Denver. The Lakers,

1519
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:41,559
Speaker 3: the Warriors, Spurs, Mavericks, and Kings are off the board.

1520
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 3: We have one strike. Mike Harmon over to you.

1521
01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 2: How about that Rockets.

1522
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:50,439
Speaker 3: We know that they had some good years. They were

1523
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:53,280
Speaker 3: very close to making it to the NBA Finals. Were

1524
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:56,160
Speaker 3: they at number one seed? Show me the Rockets? Yes,

1525
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:58,720
Speaker 3: I really just one time Houston was the number one

1526
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:02,160
Speaker 3: overall seed, but they were, so it fits our category.

1527
01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:08,840
Speaker 3: Over to Chris perfet Uh down to three correct answers.

1528
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:10,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, three correct and three incorrect.

1529
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,800
Speaker 3: Left. So this is like Price is right on the

1530
01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:16,920
Speaker 3: lucky strike, which is, by the way, a darn near

1531
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:21,080
Speaker 3: impossible game to win. I digress Phoenix Suns. Show me

1532
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 3: the Phoenix Suns. Phoenix rises in this occasion, Phoenix is

1533
01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:30,080
Speaker 3: off the board. All right. Now here we go over

1534
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:34,920
Speaker 3: to Shay name the Western Conference team that has been

1535
01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 3: a number one seed in the West in the playoffs,

1536
01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:40,559
Speaker 3: not overall, but just in the West since two thousand.

1537
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:45,519
Speaker 3: The Jazz said, with conviction.

1538
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:47,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was not a question.

1539
01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:49,439
Speaker 3: Mark at the end of that at all. He was

1540
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:53,519
Speaker 3: Ron Burgundy, show me the Jazz. Yes, there they are

1541
01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:57,920
Speaker 3: all right huge. Not too long ago, the Donovan Mitchell

1542
01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:03,760
Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert squad a number one seed for Utah. Now

1543
01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:08,800
Speaker 3: we go over to Isaac Lohankron. There is one team left.

1544
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:15,760
Speaker 7: This is a total guess because I'm I'm looking at Okay, sorry, sorry, So.

1545
01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:18,519
Speaker 3: Let's again, let's say, let's let's let's just do this.

1546
01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:22,120
Speaker 3: Who are you deciding between.

1547
01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:27,400
Speaker 7: I'm deciding between Portland, Memphis, New Orleans and Minnesota. Portland,

1548
01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:31,040
Speaker 7: I don't think so, because they were only good in

1549
01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:33,439
Speaker 7: the early two thousands when the Lakers and Spurs were better.

1550
01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:38,360
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go Memphis, all right, Isaac Loankrn with his

1551
01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:39,519
Speaker 3: fingers crossed, he.

1552
01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 2: Put on those blue sweight shoes.

1553
01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:45,800
Speaker 3: Is it Memphis? No, it is not. The Grizzlies one

1554
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 3: of the four to not get the number one overall seed.

1555
01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:54,360
Speaker 3: Mike Carmen is all on your shoulders. Who's all left? Like?

1556
01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:55,639
Speaker 3: What are the teams we have left?

1557
01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:58,080
Speaker 7: Portland, Portland, New Orleans and Minnesota.

1558
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:02,479
Speaker 3: One of the those three is our correct answer, and

1559
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:07,800
Speaker 3: yes the other two are wrong. All right, what do

1560
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:08,559
Speaker 3: you got, Mike?

1561
01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:12,720
Speaker 2: I'll take the Blazers, which I think is wrong.

1562
01:19:12,840 --> 01:19:15,640
Speaker 3: Great success. Are you guys? Are you guys all on

1563
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,439
Speaker 3: board with the Blazers? Christopher Veett is not shay? Are

1564
01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:21,880
Speaker 3: you kind of iffy? Isaac? Are you on board?

1565
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:23,720
Speaker 7: I'm drinking with Ryan Garcia at this point?

1566
01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 3: All right? Is it the Portland Trail Blazers? It was

1567
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:35,760
Speaker 3: the Minnesota Timberwolves in two thousand and four.

1568
01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:42,799
Speaker 2: I had a bunch of Tom googlyata jokes, Sam Cassell,

1569
01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:45,040
Speaker 2: it's in the wrong decade, I was.

1570
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:49,639
Speaker 3: I was shocked that the Blazers weren't for some reason.

1571
01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:52,080
Speaker 3: I just I thought, But then when you actually go

1572
01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:54,320
Speaker 3: back and you think about, okay, Lakers were getting at

1573
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:57,040
Speaker 3: the start of the decade, and the you know, Spurs

1574
01:19:57,160 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 3: kind of take over, and then it's the Lakers again,

1575
01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:00,439
Speaker 3: and you have these ones.

1576
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,320
Speaker 2: So well at job, I went and I picked the

1577
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:06,000
Speaker 2: Blazers for the fact that we have crushed them for

1578
01:20:06,160 --> 01:20:09,479
Speaker 2: failing to achieve despite great regular seasons. Sure, so that

1579
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:12,240
Speaker 2: was the logic there versus we don't really talk about

1580
01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:14,160
Speaker 2: the Tea Wolves in the same circumstance.

1581
01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:16,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could have been two thousand and two thousand

1582
01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:17,360
Speaker 3: and one when they were still strong.

1583
01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:20,519
Speaker 2: Hey, what do the Vikings do in this process? And

1584
01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:22,760
Speaker 2: I'm more NFL Draft talk next. He's Dan, I'm Mike

1585
01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:26,160
Speaker 2: Gratings and welcome in final hour of the program for

1586
01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:29,080
Speaker 2: us this morning. It's a beautiful Fox Sports Sunday. So

1587
01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:35,320
Speaker 2: much going on, final round here of the RBC heritage.

1588
01:20:35,360 --> 01:20:38,240
Speaker 2: As we get going here, Scheffler atop the leaderboard at

1589
01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:43,400
Speaker 2: sixteen under trying to parlay a big week that he had.

1590
01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:47,280
Speaker 2: You got kids, you got go green jacket, you got everything.

1591
01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:52,360
Speaker 2: We got playoff action in both the NBA and NHL.

1592
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,840
Speaker 2: We've got F one, We've got Premier League, We've got

1593
01:20:55,960 --> 01:21:00,519
Speaker 2: Talladega White Sox. I don't think they play today, Okay,

1594
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:03,360
Speaker 2: yeah they do. It's Sunday, but you know, and they

1595
01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:05,240
Speaker 2: deserve a day off. Yeah, and the Mets looking to

1596
01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:09,759
Speaker 2: sweep the Dodgers. And we'll see if my normal nighttime

1597
01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 2: partner and my producer come to blows at the game.

1598
01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 2: So that'll be fun.

1599
01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:18,559
Speaker 3: Dodgers not doing well, the Sabotager be in a survivor pool.

1600
01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:21,320
Speaker 3: I'm already out this week because of they lost two

1601
01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:24,280
Speaker 3: or three to the Nats. Yeah, and then dropped the

1602
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:27,439
Speaker 3: first two here to the Mets. When you have as

1603
01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:30,400
Speaker 3: many runners in scoring position or the bases loaded and

1604
01:21:30,520 --> 01:21:33,519
Speaker 3: you come up with air when you're swinging at the plate,

1605
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:36,280
Speaker 3: that's not going to help things. And that's what hurt

1606
01:21:36,320 --> 01:21:37,759
Speaker 3: the Dodgers, especially yesterday.

1607
01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:41,200
Speaker 2: Dodger Baseball. Hey, folks are already losing their minds, partially

1608
01:21:41,280 --> 01:21:43,599
Speaker 2: because maybe they bet the over on that one hundred

1609
01:21:43,600 --> 01:21:46,560
Speaker 2: and three and a half total, recognizing that it's not

1610
01:21:46,640 --> 01:21:49,880
Speaker 2: a cakewalk, that all of the contracts in the world

1611
01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:52,120
Speaker 2: don't matter. He's Dan Byer on my carbon at dan

1612
01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:54,439
Speaker 2: Byer on Fox where you find him. Find me over

1613
01:21:54,600 --> 01:21:57,920
Speaker 2: at Swollen Dome talking NFL Draft. Jason Cole going to

1614
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:02,240
Speaker 2: join us about twenty minutes from now, one of the

1615
01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:05,519
Speaker 2: teams that is helping to push a lot of narratives

1616
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:08,200
Speaker 2: and a lot of the chaos theory of the draft.

1617
01:22:08,320 --> 01:22:08,400
Speaker 11: Right.

1618
01:22:08,439 --> 01:22:12,200
Speaker 2: We had Jason lock And fora on with us. He's

1619
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:15,800
Speaker 2: working out in Baltimore, Washington Post. People know him for years.

1620
01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:19,640
Speaker 2: He was with CBS the He was estimating four to

1621
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 2: five trades in the top half of the draft. You

1622
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:28,479
Speaker 2: look at the odds for quarterbacks being selected, the over

1623
01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:32,960
Speaker 2: unders at four and a half quarterbacks. So Pennix, Nicks,

1624
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:37,760
Speaker 2: you know, mystery player X, Spencer Ratlin, Yes, you know,

1625
01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:38,960
Speaker 2: whatever they X.

1626
01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 3: Would be the tipping point because I do think that

1627
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:44,640
Speaker 3: Bonix is higher than Pennix on on draft charts, So

1628
01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:47,400
Speaker 3: Penix would be the one if he is right.

1629
01:22:47,520 --> 01:22:50,920
Speaker 2: Does he pushed you over with the fifth So, but

1630
01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:52,880
Speaker 2: one of the teams in the mix. As we talk

1631
01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 2: about the Raiders, whatever the Patriots end up doing. You

1632
01:22:56,520 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 2: look at the Broncos rumors this week, and because this

1633
01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:02,640
Speaker 2: is also the other part that really is intriguing to me,

1634
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 2: not just from the quarterbacks and where they get picked

1635
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:09,120
Speaker 2: and who's jockeying there, just the veteran wide receivers that

1636
01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:12,439
Speaker 2: are in the marketplace or seemingly so. Right the Broncos say,

1637
01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 2: we've got offers for Courtland Sutton, but we don't want

1638
01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:17,599
Speaker 2: to get rid of them with the forty nine ers.

1639
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:22,120
Speaker 2: Is Brandon Ayuk out his social media would lead you

1640
01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:26,439
Speaker 2: to believe he's crawling out the door and trying to

1641
01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:29,360
Speaker 2: let it close behind. Yeah, but you got him. There

1642
01:23:29,400 --> 01:23:32,240
Speaker 2: were rumors about Justin Jefferson for a while. You go

1643
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,880
Speaker 2: to AJ Brown, like you just got all these names

1644
01:23:34,960 --> 01:23:36,920
Speaker 2: kind of swirling and if nothing else, that makes it

1645
01:23:37,040 --> 01:23:40,799
Speaker 2: more intriguing how much of those actually come to fruition

1646
01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:43,880
Speaker 2: versus just like at a trade deadline. Yeah, nothing to

1647
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:44,879
Speaker 2: see here, Sure.

1648
01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:47,720
Speaker 3: And there are teams that need wide receivers. I think

1649
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:49,240
Speaker 3: they're they're out there.

1650
01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:50,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, for as many of us they're going to be

1651
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:53,040
Speaker 2: selected in the draft because like this is the weird

1652
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:56,759
Speaker 2: convergence where normally it's all right, here's veteran wide receivers,

1653
01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:00,639
Speaker 2: let's dangle them. Because there's nothing coming out in this year.

1654
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:03,960
Speaker 2: We actually have in the first round a handful of

1655
01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:06,040
Speaker 2: guys that are going to come off the board pretty fast.

1656
01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:08,439
Speaker 2: Like when we talk with Jay Glazer the other day,

1657
01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:11,679
Speaker 2: he'll anchor our Fox Sports radio coverage later on this week.

1658
01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:15,920
Speaker 2: You know, he was just talking about how weird it

1659
01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:19,400
Speaker 2: is to not talk about defensive players really at all

1660
01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:24,200
Speaker 2: at the top of the draft, right between offensive linemen. However,

1661
01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:26,439
Speaker 2: many wide receivers come off the board, and of course

1662
01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:29,240
Speaker 2: all the quarterbacks. But a team that's in play here

1663
01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:33,080
Speaker 2: in Minnesota no longer Kirk Cousins in a Vikings uniform,

1664
01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:35,479
Speaker 2: which is going to be weird, at least for the moment.

1665
01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:40,040
Speaker 2: It's Sam Darnold. But Kevin O'Connell did an appearance Hugh

1666
01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:42,360
Speaker 2: and a and kind of talking with folks at a

1667
01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:45,719
Speaker 2: church at the end of the week and was asked

1668
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:47,160
Speaker 2: some pretty pointed questions.

1669
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:51,200
Speaker 12: I do very much believe in certain principles of playing

1670
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,800
Speaker 12: the quarterback position. I believe the footwork in the lower

1671
01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:57,799
Speaker 12: half of any quarterback can be fixed with the proper

1672
01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:03,599
Speaker 12: coaching and teaching. And I think that when you see

1673
01:25:03,640 --> 01:25:05,760
Speaker 12: the good things on tape, you see things that they.

1674
01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:06,880
Speaker 3: Can do better on tape.

1675
01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 12: You're looking for a lot of different things and to check.

1676
01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:11,719
Speaker 3: A lot of boxes.

1677
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 12: And ultimately, when you feel like you find that guy,

1678
01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 12: then you got to hope that thirty one other teams

1679
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:21,000
Speaker 12: are complicit and making sure that they can become a

1680
01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:23,719
Speaker 12: Minnesota Viking. But we only need one team to be complicit,

1681
01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:27,640
Speaker 12: and hopefully we find that team, and that person's.

1682
01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:28,880
Speaker 3: On your Patriots connection at three.

1683
01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:32,680
Speaker 11: You know, I don't know.

1684
01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:35,360
Speaker 12: I may or may not have sent a nice bouquet

1685
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:36,960
Speaker 12: of flowers to Robert Kraft.

1686
01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:40,080
Speaker 2: The other day. But so he gets the big laugh.

1687
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:44,479
Speaker 2: Here's part of something to talk faith and leadership coaching

1688
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:48,840
Speaker 2: in the NFL at a Lutheran church in Plymouth. So

1689
01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:51,560
Speaker 2: kind of getting the laughs and add a number of

1690
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:55,360
Speaker 2: point of question. That one was particularly targeted on JJ

1691
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,880
Speaker 2: McCarthy and bo Nix and got of separating them out.

1692
01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:02,240
Speaker 2: But for Connell, Yeah, he's got Sam Darnold right now,

1693
01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:04,880
Speaker 2: and you still have to make that wide receiver happy.

1694
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, And there's they have shown their intentions. And Mike,

1695
01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:14,920
Speaker 3: I know, and I appreciate you sitting next to me

1696
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 3: because I'm gonna talk about this again. The Minnesota Vikings

1697
01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:22,280
Speaker 3: told you at the end of the year what they

1698
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,720
Speaker 3: wanted to do with their quarterback room. This isn't a

1699
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:28,920
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins discussion. It's a point of Minnesota has shown

1700
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:32,200
Speaker 3: you as an organization of what they are going to do.

1701
01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:35,080
Speaker 3: They had that Sunday night game in week seventeen when

1702
01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:37,080
Speaker 3: they were facing the Packers and it was a must

1703
01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:39,760
Speaker 3: win game and you had done the trade with Josh,

1704
01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:42,720
Speaker 3: you know, to get Josh Dobbs to come in, and

1705
01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 3: he had filled in nicely up until a certain point,

1706
01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:49,840
Speaker 3: and then you had Nick Mullins come in. He had

1707
01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:54,000
Speaker 3: to take some starting snaps, and then in the biggest

1708
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:56,320
Speaker 3: game of the year where you had to win Green

1709
01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:59,400
Speaker 3: Bay if you had any hope of making the postseason,

1710
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:02,800
Speaker 3: they turned to Jaren Hall to make his second career start,

1711
01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:05,680
Speaker 3: and that experiment was so bad that they made the

1712
01:27:05,840 --> 01:27:08,680
Speaker 3: change at halftime. But it also told you that they

1713
01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:12,040
Speaker 3: were just dying for Jaren Hall to be that starting

1714
01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:14,080
Speaker 3: quarterback at the time. And the reason I bring that

1715
01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:17,040
Speaker 3: story up not to pat myself on the back to

1716
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,040
Speaker 3: tell you that that's when I knew Kirk Cousins was

1717
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 3: not going to be returning. It's the fact, Mike, that again,

1718
01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,040
Speaker 3: Minnesota shows you what they're going to do. Them training

1719
01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:28,960
Speaker 3: into the first round sounded all of the alarms to

1720
01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:32,519
Speaker 3: everyone else, and so when I see mock drafts of

1721
01:27:32,680 --> 01:27:36,320
Speaker 3: them sticking at eleven and twenty three, I just don't

1722
01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:38,360
Speaker 3: believe it now. And I don't believe it because of

1723
01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:41,400
Speaker 3: everything that we've also heard about this draft of outside

1724
01:27:41,439 --> 01:27:44,559
Speaker 3: of the top eleven or twelve, it can get very

1725
01:27:44,720 --> 01:27:49,040
Speaker 3: strong into the second round, where you are drafting legitimate

1726
01:27:49,160 --> 01:27:51,519
Speaker 3: starters in the second round, So then why would you

1727
01:27:51,640 --> 01:27:53,679
Speaker 3: move up to twenty three to get into the first

1728
01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:57,240
Speaker 3: round if you didn't have other aspirations of moving up.

1729
01:27:57,320 --> 01:27:59,479
Speaker 3: They are going to make a deal. It's just a

1730
01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:02,439
Speaker 3: matter of whether it's to the New England Patriots with

1731
01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,479
Speaker 3: that bouquet of flowers, or if it's to Arizona who

1732
01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:07,479
Speaker 3: tries to wheel and deal again, there will be it.

1733
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:11,920
Speaker 3: The Chargers also may be an opportunity depending on what

1734
01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:16,960
Speaker 3: happens ahead of them in terms of if Arizona States

1735
01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:21,200
Speaker 3: and Marvin Harrison Junior ends up going four or whoever.

1736
01:28:22,200 --> 01:28:24,040
Speaker 3: If the Chargers are sitting there at five, that could

1737
01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 3: also be an opportunity for Minnesota. But they are going

1738
01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:29,080
Speaker 3: to Minnesota is going to trade up one hundred percent

1739
01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:31,000
Speaker 3: in my mind, Yeah, for the Chargers, it's.

1740
01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:33,599
Speaker 2: A question of how much they love, you know, any

1741
01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:37,880
Speaker 2: individual guide. I'm looking squarely at Jewelt in that spot, right,

1742
01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:41,360
Speaker 2: you know, wide receivers. As we talked about, either the

1743
01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:45,160
Speaker 2: trade market or in the draft, You've got plenty of options.

1744
01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:47,640
Speaker 2: But for Minnesota, yeah, I think I do think the

1745
01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:50,680
Speaker 2: number three pick is where it's got to because I

1746
01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:55,559
Speaker 2: think Arizona. You gotta go get Kyler Murray weapon, yes, right,

1747
01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:58,000
Speaker 2: and if you trade back all the way to eleven,

1748
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:01,160
Speaker 2: are any of those top flight guy? I mean, they're

1749
01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,800
Speaker 2: good receivers. Now you're just trying to figure out what's

1750
01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:07,720
Speaker 2: the great differential in your war room. The drop off

1751
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:12,439
Speaker 2: between Harrison Junior to the Washington receivers to whomever, right,

1752
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:15,559
Speaker 2: is that stark enough for the Chargers to totally see

1753
01:29:15,600 --> 01:29:20,360
Speaker 2: them trading back because they've got a bunch of needs

1754
01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:23,800
Speaker 2: on that squad right now. Certainly they reset the wide

1755
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:26,160
Speaker 2: receiver room. There's a couple of young players that you

1756
01:29:26,360 --> 01:29:29,800
Speaker 2: like on the roster, but nobody that's matching top end

1757
01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:33,680
Speaker 2: production of Keenan Allen or what you had from Mike

1758
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:36,120
Speaker 2: Williams when he was actually on the field, which is

1759
01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 2: unfortunately the dot dot dot Mike Williams when he's on

1760
01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:44,360
Speaker 2: the field. So you look at for Minnesota as as

1761
01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:48,000
Speaker 2: we look at their depth chart. You brought in Aaron

1762
01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:52,200
Speaker 2: Jones to anchor your backfield wide receivers. You've got Jefferson,

1763
01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:56,080
Speaker 2: You've got Addison. You brought in Brandon Powell, good speed,

1764
01:29:56,720 --> 01:30:00,280
Speaker 2: speed guy, maybe develops more as a receiver, and then

1765
01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:05,400
Speaker 2: Hockinson obviously is your safety valve for everything and anything

1766
01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:08,760
Speaker 2: for a young quarterback. Right, best friends are running backs

1767
01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:11,320
Speaker 2: that can catch the ball out of the backfield Jones

1768
01:30:11,400 --> 01:30:15,280
Speaker 2: can and Hockinson and then the Hoover vacuum that is

1769
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:18,920
Speaker 2: justin Jefferson. So you're in a position to go and succeed.

1770
01:30:19,400 --> 01:30:22,760
Speaker 2: And again in division, Packers showed a lot Lions aren't

1771
01:30:22,800 --> 01:30:25,840
Speaker 2: going in a way anytime soon. Bears on the come

1772
01:30:26,120 --> 01:30:29,479
Speaker 2: tough division. But now's the time to go make your push.

1773
01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:32,400
Speaker 2: And to your point about trading back in and having

1774
01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:35,040
Speaker 2: that second pick in the first right, it's just a

1775
01:30:35,120 --> 01:30:36,760
Speaker 2: matter of how high you can go up.

1776
01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:40,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, the you know the Josh McCown Drake may connections

1777
01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:43,560
Speaker 3: as well, It just are difficult to ignore. Sure, and

1778
01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:48,240
Speaker 3: I of all the quarterbacks that we have talked about

1779
01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:53,560
Speaker 3: in this draft, top four quarterbacks we've talked about this

1780
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:55,800
Speaker 3: draft because Pennix seems to be a bit over the

1781
01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:59,560
Speaker 3: you know, different spots across the board. Same thing with Boonnix.

1782
01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:03,919
Speaker 3: Killer Williams has been the no brainer Jade and Daniels

1783
01:31:03,960 --> 01:31:06,599
Speaker 3: has seemed to have vaulted himself into that number two

1784
01:31:06,680 --> 01:31:09,920
Speaker 3: spot with not like a lot of negativity around his game.

1785
01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:13,320
Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy has been the riser that we have said,

1786
01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:16,360
Speaker 3: how the heck is this happening? If anybody has taken

1787
01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:19,880
Speaker 3: their hits, it's Drake May throughout the process of what

1788
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,920
Speaker 3: maybe people have seen on film. And to have him

1789
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:24,479
Speaker 3: be able to go to a spot where you have

1790
01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:27,160
Speaker 3: a coach that knows him very very well, and to

1791
01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:29,599
Speaker 3: be in a spot like that seems that just seems

1792
01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:32,720
Speaker 3: to be the fit. And I know drafts like this

1793
01:31:32,880 --> 01:31:35,519
Speaker 3: don't break down to fit, and when you make a

1794
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,840
Speaker 3: mock draft that goes to fit, it usually doesn't turn out.

1795
01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:42,280
Speaker 3: But Mike, this fits like it just does. And if

1796
01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:45,080
Speaker 3: New England does or doesn't want to, you know, go

1797
01:31:45,240 --> 01:31:47,719
Speaker 3: at three. I wouldn't doubt if they go JJ McCarthy,

1798
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:49,840
Speaker 3: if they went over Drake May in that aspect, which

1799
01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:53,519
Speaker 3: would still allow Minnesota to end up taking Drake May

1800
01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:55,760
Speaker 3: at number four. That's how I just think it plays out.

1801
01:31:56,200 --> 01:31:59,840
Speaker 3: But there's ninety nine point nine to nine percent I'll

1802
01:31:59,840 --> 01:32:02,400
Speaker 3: be back it off that I think Minnesota absolutely trades

1803
01:32:02,479 --> 01:32:04,840
Speaker 3: up because they've shown what they what they want to do.

1804
01:32:05,840 --> 01:32:07,519
Speaker 3: They don't have a running game right now. By the way,

1805
01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:10,080
Speaker 3: you got to figure that out a little bit.

1806
01:32:10,360 --> 01:32:12,760
Speaker 2: So, well, you've got Jones, you brought Jones in, but

1807
01:32:12,880 --> 01:32:16,720
Speaker 2: again you're you're looking at injury and history and you

1808
01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:18,920
Speaker 2: got to make sure you got Ty Chandler there as well.

1809
01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:19,800
Speaker 3: Who you know.

1810
01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:22,680
Speaker 2: We talked about a bunch in the iWatch Reflexed podcast this.

1811
01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:26,040
Speaker 3: Past year because Alexander Madison was not going to be

1812
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:28,000
Speaker 3: the answer. We found that out.

1813
01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:30,360
Speaker 2: Now he's the answer to the guy that was most

1814
01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:33,920
Speaker 2: parodied in terms of songs. True, because we got to

1815
01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:38,120
Speaker 2: use a lot of Linn Manuel Miranda's Hamilton when discussing him.

1816
01:32:38,160 --> 01:32:41,519
Speaker 3: But by the way, the backfield work of Aaron Jones

1817
01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:43,000
Speaker 3: and what he can do out of the backfield and

1818
01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,679
Speaker 3: catching passes would be great to whatever quarterback.

1819
01:32:46,720 --> 01:32:49,200
Speaker 2: Then that's it, you know, little bonuses right for the

1820
01:32:49,280 --> 01:32:52,599
Speaker 2: young quarterback. Always got to have the safety valves all right.

1821
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:54,800
Speaker 2: Coming out next, we're gonna have our guy, Jason Cole

1822
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:57,080
Speaker 2: come on talk a little more draft, some of these

1823
01:32:57,439 --> 01:33:03,080
Speaker 2: early trade scenarios and everybody's love of JJ McCarthy, my

1824
01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:05,760
Speaker 2: partner during the week. Smith doesn't buy it. I say,

1825
01:33:05,840 --> 01:33:07,840
Speaker 2: if you don't have to throw the ball forty times,

1826
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,800
Speaker 2: you don't throw the ball forty times. What does Jason

1827
01:33:10,840 --> 01:33:13,080
Speaker 2: Cole think we'll find out next? He's Dan Byer, I'm

01:33:31,720 --> 01:33:34,240
Speaker 2: Mike Carmen. This is Fox Sports Sunday. We're having a blast,

1835
01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:36,840
Speaker 2: so much going on a big day, but it's a

1836
01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:41,519
Speaker 2: big week because lying season is finally coming to an end.

1837
01:33:42,280 --> 01:33:45,200
Speaker 2: We are joined on the hotline to talk about all

1838
01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:48,400
Speaker 2: of the lies, all of these storylines, and all of

1839
01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:52,120
Speaker 2: the rumor, conjecture, speculation for this Thursday's NFL Draft by

1840
01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:54,880
Speaker 2: a longtime friend of the show and the network, my buddy,

1841
01:33:54,960 --> 01:33:57,680
Speaker 2: Jason Cole at Jason Cole sixty two is where you

1842
01:33:57,840 --> 01:34:01,080
Speaker 2: find him on Twitter. He's also responsible for Hall of

1843
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:04,519
Speaker 2: Fame voting, so you can send your plaudits or your

1844
01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:07,639
Speaker 2: complaints to that address as well. What's going on, Jake Cole.

1845
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:10,840
Speaker 9: It's nothing but complaints when it comes to the Hall

1846
01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:13,880
Speaker 9: of Fame, because people who are satisfied with the Hall

1847
01:34:13,920 --> 01:34:17,559
Speaker 9: of Fame are just satisfied. They never send you a hey,

1848
01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:21,000
Speaker 9: had a boy forgetting this guy in, never get that,

1849
01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:23,679
Speaker 9: it's why aren't these all these other guys?

1850
01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:26,360
Speaker 2: Then, well, it's a good year for me this year, Cole.

1851
01:34:26,439 --> 01:34:28,040
Speaker 2: So I'll send you an extra sandwich.

1852
01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:32,600
Speaker 9: Okay, there'll be sandwich number two of my deal, my

1853
01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:33,880
Speaker 9: forty three year deal.

1854
01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:37,679
Speaker 2: Well, you know it better keep than never.

1855
01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:42,880
Speaker 9: True as long as Smith is not negotiatings. Because Smith

1856
01:34:43,520 --> 01:34:45,840
Speaker 9: probably counts the peoples of POSTROOMI that are put on

1857
01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:46,519
Speaker 9: the sandwich.

1858
01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:49,720
Speaker 2: That's well, that's what his emo is all the way,

1859
01:34:49,800 --> 01:34:53,960
Speaker 2: there's no question about it. So yeah, So Jake Cole,

1860
01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:55,680
Speaker 2: you know, as we get ready for this week, how

1861
01:34:55,720 --> 01:34:57,360
Speaker 2: many trades are we seeing in the top half of

1862
01:34:57,439 --> 01:34:58,240
Speaker 2: the first round?

1863
01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:04,200
Speaker 9: Over on would be top half? Yeah, yeah, because the

1864
01:35:04,240 --> 01:35:08,479
Speaker 9: second half usually gets busier. I'd say three in the

1865
01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:12,320
Speaker 9: top half, you know, because you've got quarterbacks in play,

1866
01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:14,160
Speaker 9: and I would say at least one trade that we're

1867
01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:16,759
Speaker 9: going to be quarterback related. And then the wide receivers

1868
01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:18,640
Speaker 9: are exciting, so I think you know there's gonna be

1869
01:35:18,720 --> 01:35:23,479
Speaker 9: some teams that say, let's get in the range if

1870
01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:27,559
Speaker 9: there's any into a possibility at Harrison, you know, drifting

1871
01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:30,840
Speaker 9: down to four or five or something like that origins,

1872
01:35:31,920 --> 01:35:35,040
Speaker 9: you know, it drifts even further that that could cause

1873
01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:38,200
Speaker 9: some excitement in the trade world. So I'd go with

1874
01:35:39,400 --> 01:35:41,720
Speaker 9: under over at three, but I probably still bet the

1875
01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:44,240
Speaker 9: under on that one to maybe two and a half.

1876
01:35:44,640 --> 01:35:47,799
Speaker 3: So when Elliott Wolfe says that they're open to trading

1877
01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:50,760
Speaker 3: any of their picks, what what is that translated to?

1878
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:54,280
Speaker 3: During this line season? Are they willing to do?

1879
01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:54,479
Speaker 5: So?

1880
01:35:56,439 --> 01:35:59,599
Speaker 9: Everybody is willing to trade anything depending on the price.

1881
01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:02,320
Speaker 9: Even the Bears at this point would be willing to

1882
01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,640
Speaker 9: trade the number one pick. It's all about what is

1883
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,920
Speaker 9: somebody willing to pay. That's all it is. And so

1884
01:36:10,160 --> 01:36:14,599
Speaker 9: anybody who says we're never trading the pick is lying

1885
01:36:15,680 --> 01:36:17,600
Speaker 9: because they just haven't heard what the price is.

1886
01:36:17,680 --> 01:36:17,800
Speaker 5: Now.

1887
01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:20,000
Speaker 9: Sometimes the price is so high that yeah, you're not

1888
01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:22,479
Speaker 9: going to trade it. Like if I'm the Bears and

1889
01:36:23,080 --> 01:36:26,120
Speaker 9: I've lived through how many years has it now since

1890
01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:27,599
Speaker 9: you had a decent quarterback eighty?

1891
01:36:27,920 --> 01:36:32,040
Speaker 2: Well, you decide whether you like the Aaron Kramer years.

1892
01:36:32,280 --> 01:36:34,320
Speaker 3: I thought it was eighty a d that was the

1893
01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:36,720
Speaker 3: last time that they had a good quarterback, not eighty years.

1894
01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:40,880
Speaker 9: It might it might be. I mean again, I go

1895
01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:43,959
Speaker 9: back to the only quarterback the Bears have ever developed

1896
01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:48,000
Speaker 9: who became a franchise guy is Sid Luckman. And I

1897
01:36:48,080 --> 01:36:51,960
Speaker 9: will guess out of all of the people listening to

1898
01:36:52,040 --> 01:36:54,400
Speaker 9: your show right now, there might be one. The over

1899
01:36:54,600 --> 01:37:00,840
Speaker 9: under is just one. You know who said Luckman? Hit Oh, I.

1900
01:37:00,840 --> 01:37:03,800
Speaker 2: Thought you were. I was alive to watch Sid Luckman play.

1901
01:37:04,120 --> 01:37:05,080
Speaker 2: Now you're just going to.

1902
01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:11,120
Speaker 9: There's nobody. There's nobody. There's nobody listening to the show.

1903
01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:15,800
Speaker 9: Who watched Sid Luckman play. Nobody listening to the show? None, zero, zilch,

1904
01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:22,040
Speaker 9: not even possible. So that's number one. The only one

1905
01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:25,360
Speaker 9: of us who ever saw said Luckwan was me when

1906
01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:27,679
Speaker 9: I went to is when I went to his apartment

1907
01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:32,320
Speaker 9: in Miami Beach and he, you know, we had a

1908
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:34,400
Speaker 9: wonderful It was the nicest man in the world. But

1909
01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:37,920
Speaker 9: he gave me chaps keys like crazy, like old beat

1910
01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:39,640
Speaker 9: up plastic pens and stuff like that.

1911
01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:41,360
Speaker 2: That's awesome.

1912
01:37:42,120 --> 01:37:44,280
Speaker 3: What do you go Sid Luckman's pen?

1913
01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:48,600
Speaker 9: I well, you know, unfortunately it was plastic because I

1914
01:37:48,640 --> 01:37:50,240
Speaker 9: think it broke before I got to the car, but

1915
01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:53,640
Speaker 9: you know, you know, it was like this cheap I mean,

1916
01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:56,080
Speaker 9: it was. It was wonderful. He was just he was

1917
01:37:56,080 --> 01:37:59,439
Speaker 9: an assault of the earth, wonderful man who told me,

1918
01:37:59,560 --> 01:38:03,880
Speaker 9: great is about Hallis Hallis going to the apartment and

1919
01:38:04,040 --> 01:38:07,800
Speaker 9: offering the contract for five thousand dollars and he and

1920
01:38:07,880 --> 01:38:10,519
Speaker 9: his wife looking at each other and going, it's more

1921
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:13,120
Speaker 9: money than we've ever seen because it was a depression

1922
01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:16,960
Speaker 9: era of the whole thing. So yeah, it was. It

1923
01:38:17,080 --> 01:38:21,880
Speaker 9: was fantastic. But there there is this humor of him

1924
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,479
Speaker 9: handing me this bag full of chudge games, you know,

1925
01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:28,080
Speaker 9: which his thrift store kind of stuff. It was just classic,

1926
01:38:28,360 --> 01:38:31,400
Speaker 9: just one of those wonderful moments. But anyways, that's that's

1927
01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:35,200
Speaker 9: it for the Bears to get onto today. Like Caleb

1928
01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:40,160
Speaker 9: Williams is when you watch him, you know, from a

1929
01:38:40,280 --> 01:38:43,600
Speaker 9: pure playing standpoint, he's the closest thing you're going to

1930
01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:46,840
Speaker 9: see the Mahomes in terms of talent. You know, throw

1931
01:38:46,880 --> 01:38:49,640
Speaker 9: the ball. He's not as big as Mahomes. Yeah, he

1932
01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:51,479
Speaker 9: has some faults in his game. He's probably a little

1933
01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:55,519
Speaker 9: bit faster than Mahomes and can run it, but a

1934
01:38:55,600 --> 01:38:59,000
Speaker 9: little bit better. But you know, that's you have a

1935
01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:01,519
Speaker 9: talent like that. The only way you trade out of

1936
01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:03,519
Speaker 9: that is Okay, I'm a Game four or five or

1937
01:39:03,600 --> 01:39:09,360
Speaker 9: six first round pick, Like that's the price. Like, that's

1938
01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:12,920
Speaker 9: why I go back to anybody who says that, you know, oh,

1939
01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:15,320
Speaker 9: we're looking to trade, or we're we're or we're not

1940
01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:18,400
Speaker 9: looking to trade. You're always looking at You're always looking

1941
01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:22,160
Speaker 9: to make a move if it's profitable enough. And that's

1942
01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:25,080
Speaker 9: the question you have to ask yourself. But when you

1943
01:39:25,160 --> 01:39:26,920
Speaker 9: have a guy like Caleb Williams on the board, the

1944
01:39:27,000 --> 01:39:30,880
Speaker 9: price is so ridiculously high to me that you do

1945
01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:32,400
Speaker 9: it now. There are a bunch of Bears fans out

1946
01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:36,120
Speaker 9: there like, no, we should continue to build around the

1947
01:39:36,200 --> 01:39:38,920
Speaker 9: rest of the team and get a quarterback later. I'm

1948
01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:43,080
Speaker 9: always people are just stupid. You get a quarterback where

1949
01:39:43,080 --> 01:39:45,920
Speaker 9: you can get a quarterback, you know, if you have

1950
01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:48,120
Speaker 9: a chance to get a great one. And I get it.

1951
01:39:48,280 --> 01:39:50,600
Speaker 9: Every quarterback comes with some kind of issue, you know,

1952
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:54,519
Speaker 9: whether you're scared off by the pink nails or the

1953
01:39:54,720 --> 01:39:58,920
Speaker 9: crying or this or that. I get it. But I

1954
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:01,840
Speaker 9: think that that kid plays really, really hard with the

1955
01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:04,600
Speaker 9: intent to win games, and I'll take the rest of it.

1956
01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:08,880
Speaker 9: He's I don't get the Zach Wilson vibe that I

1957
01:40:08,960 --> 01:40:11,920
Speaker 9: got before the Zach Wilson pick when he was taking

1958
01:40:12,439 --> 01:40:16,360
Speaker 9: you know photos on Twitter and Instagram of the suit

1959
01:40:16,439 --> 01:40:19,120
Speaker 9: that he was wearing, you know, in the in the

1960
01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:22,280
Speaker 9: hotel bathroom, like, you know, just stop that stuff, you know,

1961
01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:26,400
Speaker 9: like that's you know, don't be trying to make money

1962
01:40:26,479 --> 01:40:30,160
Speaker 9: before you've ever played it down? Is my is my problem?

1963
01:40:30,240 --> 01:40:33,160
Speaker 9: You know, off your brand? That's that just bothers me

1964
01:40:33,240 --> 01:40:33,719
Speaker 9: at this point.

1965
01:40:33,880 --> 01:40:36,879
Speaker 3: All right, decipher the real truth that of this report

1966
01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:41,120
Speaker 3: of Jaden Daniels and his reps maybe not being happy

1967
01:40:41,280 --> 01:40:44,720
Speaker 3: with how the commanders had their meeting and that it

1968
01:40:44,920 --> 01:40:47,920
Speaker 3: wasn't the you know, the one on one sort of deal.

1969
01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:50,400
Speaker 3: What what is the truth? What do we need to

1970
01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:52,080
Speaker 3: read between the lines and that report?

1971
01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:55,120
Speaker 9: Yeah, do you really want to go four or five?

1972
01:40:56,320 --> 01:40:58,280
Speaker 9: Is that really what you want to do? So you

1973
01:40:58,320 --> 01:40:59,840
Speaker 9: want to take a chance that you've got not going

1974
01:40:59,880 --> 01:41:04,840
Speaker 9: to go number two? I just look at that and go, okay,

1975
01:41:05,920 --> 01:41:08,479
Speaker 9: we'll go take another quarterback and you start losing money?

1976
01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:12,439
Speaker 9: Is that what you want to do? I look, this

1977
01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:17,000
Speaker 9: is competition, and if you're afraid that the other guy

1978
01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:21,200
Speaker 9: shows up and they're talking to him and they're saying

1979
01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:23,320
Speaker 9: things to him, or you know, there's a couple other

1980
01:41:23,360 --> 01:41:29,040
Speaker 9: guys in the room, you know, like who cares if

1981
01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:31,559
Speaker 9: I'm a competitor. I mean, that makes me worry more

1982
01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:36,240
Speaker 9: about Jaden Daniels than does about about the other guys.

1983
01:41:37,280 --> 01:41:40,479
Speaker 9: It's like, if you're affected by this, if you're really

1984
01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:44,160
Speaker 9: complaining about this, then you don't understand the nature of

1985
01:41:44,200 --> 01:41:47,200
Speaker 9: what you're about to walk into. Because this is a

1986
01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:51,600
Speaker 9: league for people. We're not just big and strong and

1987
01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:56,599
Speaker 9: mature men, okay in a macho environment, but you need

1988
01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:58,320
Speaker 9: to be mentally strong to play.

1989
01:41:58,160 --> 01:41:58,679
Speaker 3: In this game.

1990
01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:03,600
Speaker 9: Okay, they're going to beat brings them mentally and physically.

1991
01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:07,240
Speaker 9: We need to play because nobody feels sorry for you.

1992
01:42:08,560 --> 01:42:12,880
Speaker 9: So if that's really what's going on, and maybe you know,

1993
01:42:13,040 --> 01:42:16,439
Speaker 9: the commanders didn't handle this exactly right, because they've got

1994
01:42:16,439 --> 01:42:18,679
Speaker 9: a bunch of new people, including a new owner who's

1995
01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:21,800
Speaker 9: driving the new car around for you know, for the

1996
01:42:21,840 --> 01:42:23,840
Speaker 9: first time and taking a few laughs trying to figure

1997
01:42:23,840 --> 01:42:28,600
Speaker 9: out how it works. But too bad, Too bad. I

1998
01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:30,760
Speaker 9: like that the number two pick. You want to be

1999
01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:35,520
Speaker 9: the number two pick, you know, go do it, prove yourself.

2000
01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:36,720
Speaker 2: I'm going to put that quote up when I put

2001
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:39,000
Speaker 2: the mock draft up. It says too bad. You go here,

2002
01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:42,360
Speaker 2: and I'll put a picture of Jason Cole pointing to it.

2003
01:42:42,920 --> 01:42:44,920
Speaker 2: Jason Gold with us here, Pro Football Hall of Fame.

2004
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:48,760
Speaker 2: That a voter, a long time at FL writer, our

2005
01:42:48,800 --> 01:42:51,680
Speaker 2: friend on the show and the network for many a year.

2006
01:42:51,800 --> 01:42:54,240
Speaker 2: Joins us here on Fox Sports Sunday, He's Dan on

2007
01:42:54,400 --> 01:42:59,120
Speaker 2: Mike Jim Harbaugh. He's got his new tattoo. Does he

2008
01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:01,880
Speaker 2: have a new offensive lineman ats five? Or are they

2009
01:43:01,920 --> 01:43:04,280
Speaker 2: going to look to replenish that wide receiving cores?

2010
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:07,760
Speaker 9: Well, it's one of those ones where you can't really

2011
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:12,280
Speaker 9: go wrong either way, right, So best football player, knowing Harby,

2012
01:43:12,439 --> 01:43:17,240
Speaker 9: it will be the offensive lineman, because I mean, just

2013
01:43:17,280 --> 01:43:19,920
Speaker 9: look at how he built the Michigan teams. Look at

2014
01:43:19,960 --> 01:43:22,800
Speaker 9: how he built the San Francisco teams, look at how

2015
01:43:22,840 --> 01:43:26,639
Speaker 9: he built the Stanford teams. They're all built around rough,

2016
01:43:26,760 --> 01:43:30,240
Speaker 9: tough people up front. And yes he had good quarterbacks

2017
01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:33,280
Speaker 9: and all those things and put together. But his mo

2018
01:43:33,640 --> 01:43:36,800
Speaker 9: is be tough on the line, be tough, you know,

2019
01:43:37,640 --> 01:43:44,240
Speaker 9: just be tough, period, Right, That's his whole sometimes lunatic

2020
01:43:44,439 --> 01:43:51,439
Speaker 9: fringe mentality and in all the dearest forms of flattery.

2021
01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:58,120
Speaker 9: But you know, he just believes in toughness and it's simple.

2022
01:43:58,280 --> 01:44:02,200
Speaker 9: So if I was betting, I would bet offensive line.

2023
01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:07,080
Speaker 9: But I also say he's a he's a former quarterback,

2024
01:44:07,920 --> 01:44:11,639
Speaker 9: so he does like shining toys. It's part of him.

2025
01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:16,759
Speaker 9: So it's I would lean sixty to forty offensive lineman.

2026
01:44:17,720 --> 01:44:20,760
Speaker 9: Forty is pretty nice. And all of a sudden, if

2027
01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:24,160
Speaker 9: you've got Marvin Harrison and you know what it was

2028
01:44:24,360 --> 01:44:27,360
Speaker 9: like to go get him or to cover, you know,

2029
01:44:27,520 --> 01:44:33,080
Speaker 9: to try and cover him. If you get him, things

2030
01:44:33,160 --> 01:44:36,440
Speaker 9: changed a little bit, right, especially since you have the quarterback.

2031
01:44:36,840 --> 01:44:42,560
Speaker 9: Because Marvin Harrison is plug and play. Just here, go

2032
01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:44,800
Speaker 9: go play. You don't have to spend a lot of

2033
01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:47,760
Speaker 9: time coaching that kid to get you know, just teach

2034
01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:51,000
Speaker 9: him the offense and he's going to do things right

2035
01:44:51,040 --> 01:44:54,040
Speaker 9: because he knows how to play. Now, he's going to

2036
01:44:54,040 --> 01:44:56,680
Speaker 9: be the biggest star receiver in this group. There's a

2037
01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:58,519
Speaker 9: lot of football to be caught between now and then

2038
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:01,519
Speaker 9: before we figure it out, but there is no doubt

2039
01:45:02,080 --> 01:45:04,439
Speaker 9: in the world that he's the most prepared to walk

2040
01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:07,280
Speaker 9: on an NFL play field and play today. Out of

2041
01:45:07,360 --> 01:45:07,720
Speaker 9: this group.

2042
01:45:07,880 --> 01:45:10,400
Speaker 3: All right? Last one for me, when the Patriots do

2043
01:45:10,520 --> 01:45:12,880
Speaker 3: hand in their card, will there be a disparaging comment

2044
01:45:12,880 --> 01:45:15,560
Speaker 3: about Bill Belichick on that one? Because it seems like

2045
01:45:15,640 --> 01:45:20,280
Speaker 3: everyone's getting in line to take their shots this past week.

2046
01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:23,519
Speaker 3: And you know the piece that Aaron.

2047
01:45:23,320 --> 01:45:25,920
Speaker 9: Burr with Hamilton as that what we're saying, just.

2048
01:45:26,680 --> 01:45:29,639
Speaker 3: My goodness, can the guy catch a break at all?

2049
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:33,120
Speaker 3: I mean, this is uh, why is there such a

2050
01:45:33,240 --> 01:45:35,519
Speaker 3: long line of people who are can't wait to tell

2051
01:45:35,560 --> 01:45:37,120
Speaker 3: their Belichick stories.

2052
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:39,840
Speaker 9: Because they pissed off a lot of people. I mean,

2053
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:44,840
Speaker 9: you know Belichick didn't do this in a warm, fuzzy way.

2054
01:45:44,960 --> 01:45:48,640
Speaker 9: He ain't Andy Reid, all right, he's nut he is.

2055
01:45:49,760 --> 01:45:54,120
Speaker 9: He's a glowering figure, all right, who who you know

2056
01:45:55,640 --> 01:45:58,559
Speaker 9: use his power and leverage over people in a thousand

2057
01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:02,920
Speaker 9: different ways? Right? And I don't mean towering figure, I

2058
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:10,040
Speaker 9: mean glowering. So he earned this, Okay. At the same time,

2059
01:46:10,240 --> 01:46:14,040
Speaker 9: you take a step back, and if you're Bob Kraft,

2060
01:46:14,080 --> 01:46:15,559
Speaker 9: and yeah, you had to eat a lot of craft

2061
01:46:15,640 --> 01:46:18,599
Speaker 9: for twenty years from him because he had full control

2062
01:46:19,320 --> 01:46:22,720
Speaker 9: and maybe you want your pound of flesh now as

2063
01:46:22,760 --> 01:46:26,160
Speaker 9: you get back at him. But that guy put together

2064
01:46:26,880 --> 01:46:31,000
Speaker 9: you know the greatest dynasty in NFL history, and you

2065
01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:34,680
Speaker 9: should thank him every single day for his part in that.

2066
01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:41,519
Speaker 9: But yeah, Belichick pissed off people a lot, and that's

2067
01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:44,680
Speaker 9: what comes with working with Belichick is not going to

2068
01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:48,320
Speaker 9: be warm and fuzzy, not one single moment, not one

2069
01:46:48,360 --> 01:46:51,840
Speaker 9: single day. You have to earn it's I tell you,

2070
01:46:52,439 --> 01:46:54,040
Speaker 9: I don't know if I ever told you guys the story.

2071
01:46:54,360 --> 01:46:55,320
Speaker 3: He made me wait.

2072
01:46:57,240 --> 01:47:00,240
Speaker 9: Eleven and a half hours one day to get a

2073
01:47:00,280 --> 01:47:02,960
Speaker 9: one one interview. Literally, he made me wait eleven and

2074
01:47:02,960 --> 01:47:05,640
Speaker 9: a half hours. I got there at eleven in the

2075
01:47:05,680 --> 01:47:09,519
Speaker 9: morning and I did not get into his office until

2076
01:47:09,600 --> 01:47:10,160
Speaker 9: ten thirty.

2077
01:47:10,760 --> 01:47:13,160
Speaker 2: Wow, how long did you get after that?

2078
01:47:15,000 --> 01:47:17,599
Speaker 9: I got like an hour and fifteen minutes. He was awesome.

2079
01:47:18,439 --> 01:47:20,400
Speaker 9: But you have to earn, you know, with Belichick, you

2080
01:47:20,520 --> 01:47:24,720
Speaker 9: have to earn it. You have to earn what what

2081
01:47:24,920 --> 01:47:26,519
Speaker 9: you want from him. You have to show that you

2082
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:30,240
Speaker 9: want it badly. You don't have to you know, like

2083
01:47:30,880 --> 01:47:34,040
Speaker 9: he's going to put off all sorts of of hurdles

2084
01:47:34,080 --> 01:47:38,479
Speaker 9: for you. And to me, like I was like, after

2085
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:42,320
Speaker 9: the after about hour and number four, I knew what

2086
01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:45,320
Speaker 9: he was doing. To me, I was like, I'm in it.

2087

2110
01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:06,400
Speaker 2: presented by Express pros Now Spring Games, Really quick, Dan,

2111
01:49:06,600 --> 01:49:09,160
Speaker 2: since we're celebrating all these guys heading into the draft,

2112
01:49:09,400 --> 01:49:12,160
Speaker 2: did you ever see stat lines from spring games like

2113
01:49:12,240 --> 01:49:14,800
Speaker 2: you did for arch Manning and some of these, Like,

2114
01:49:15,000 --> 01:49:17,960
Speaker 2: you know, I've always seen highlights and here we'll talk

2115
01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,040
Speaker 2: about a crowd here and there, and it's something you

2116
01:49:20,120 --> 01:49:22,559
Speaker 2: and I did a little bit offline. It's like, I've

2117
01:49:22,600 --> 01:49:25,360
Speaker 2: never seen individual stat lines. Look at he tore them up.

2118
01:49:25,800 --> 01:49:30,000
Speaker 3: The hype machine is real. The I just usually cared

2119
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:32,720
Speaker 3: about the attendance, and that was always the big thing

2120
01:49:32,800 --> 01:49:34,880
Speaker 3: of and it was never in a good way. If

2121
01:49:34,920 --> 01:49:37,400
Speaker 3: you had more than if you had fifty, if you

2122
01:49:37,439 --> 01:49:39,640
Speaker 3: had sixty, if you had seventy. It was thought of

2123
01:49:39,760 --> 01:49:42,080
Speaker 3: more of like, man, your fan base is really weird

2124
01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:44,040
Speaker 3: that they would show show up for that. Yeah, show

2125
01:49:44,120 --> 01:49:47,120
Speaker 3: up for it. However, USC was like getting you know,

2126
01:49:47,280 --> 01:49:50,720
Speaker 3: raked over the coals for what was happening yesterday and

2127
01:49:50,880 --> 01:49:53,760
Speaker 3: nobody showing up. And I actually am like I have

2128
01:49:53,800 --> 01:49:54,320
Speaker 3: a problem with that.

2129
01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:56,960
Speaker 2: Ever, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I guess when you

Speaker 3: it was supposed to be a moving ceremony lost a

2287
01:58:02,280 --> 01:58:04,400
Speaker 3: little bit of its luster. Gotta be honest, Mike.

2288
01:58:04,640 --> 01:58:08,040
Speaker 2: Takes it out the back. Evidently, they also noted he's

2289
01:58:08,040 --> 01:58:11,480
Speaker 2: already got five TVs in his apartment, and now you'll

2290
01:58:11,480 --> 01:58:14,720
Speaker 2: add an eighty three incher all right. Finally, before we

2291
01:58:15,280 --> 01:58:18,320
Speaker 2: turned the keys to the car over to carry Rhodes

2292
01:58:18,360 --> 01:58:22,960
Speaker 2: and Aaron Torres, Jim Harbaugh returned for the championship ring

2293
01:58:23,240 --> 01:58:25,960
Speaker 2: ceremony and all of that fun stuff, and he showed

2294
01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:30,600
Speaker 2: that he had a fifteen to oh tattoo. He's got

2295
01:58:30,640 --> 01:58:35,120
Speaker 2: the giant M. It looked discount. I'm just gonna call

2296
01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:38,360
Speaker 2: it what it is. M doesn't look official, says fifteen

2297
01:58:38,400 --> 01:58:38,680
Speaker 2: and oh.

2298
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:41,839
Speaker 3: Well, maybe because he's gonna need to get it removed

2299
01:58:41,920 --> 01:58:44,760
Speaker 3: once these sanctions come down from that season, which again

2300
01:58:44,840 --> 01:58:48,640
Speaker 3: nobody talks about. Let's just totally gloss over the fact. Yeah,

2301
01:58:48,880 --> 01:58:52,360
Speaker 3: he was openly cheating during the season last year. That

2302
01:58:52,400 --> 01:58:55,360
Speaker 3: would have happened with Nick Saban we were in Alabama,

2303
01:58:55,600 --> 01:58:57,560
Speaker 3: we would have been up in arms. For some reason,

2304
01:58:57,640 --> 01:59:00,640
Speaker 3: we embraced Jim Harbaugh. I'll be there for the tattoo

2305
01:59:00,720 --> 01:59:03,720
Speaker 3: removal of that thing when that thing gets stripped. I

2306
01:59:03,800 --> 01:59:06,000
Speaker 3: may be a little bitter, but that's just me. Plus,

2307
01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:07,000
Speaker 3: I'm not a tattoo guy.

2308
01:59:07,320 --> 01:59:09,800
Speaker 2: Honestly, I know anything that would get you on board,

2309
01:59:09,840 --> 01:59:13,080
Speaker 2: because we got five guys here, not one of us

2310
01:59:13,160 --> 01:59:16,760
Speaker 2: with a tatto. No less Islo's got you know, full on,

2311
01:59:17,440 --> 01:59:20,640
Speaker 2: you know, like he's Wraith Nines in that. You know,

2312
01:59:21,040 --> 01:59:22,160
Speaker 2: I had elect I have.

2313
01:59:22,200 --> 01:59:27,240
Speaker 7: A Vince Scully tattoo out of viewing rains, yea.

2314
01:59:27,640 --> 01:59:29,720
Speaker 2: Or like Dennis Scott has that one that he always

2315
01:59:29,720 --> 01:59:30,560
Speaker 2: claimed was his dad.

2316
01:59:32,680 --> 01:59:34,240
Speaker 3: You looked it up, Tell me that didn't look like

2317
01:59:34,320 --> 01:59:38,440
Speaker 3: it reminded me of it. Why does he have himself

2318
01:59:38,520 --> 01:59:42,640
Speaker 3: on his arm? Hilarious, Absolutely hilarious. Hey, I guess Jim

2319
01:59:42,720 --> 01:59:44,640
Speaker 3: Harbad did live up to his word though, and got

2320
01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:45,200
Speaker 3: the tattoo.

2321
01:59:45,280 --> 01:59:48,000
Speaker 2: Well, he got the job done, and we always remember,

2322
01:59:48,160 --> 01:59:50,960
Speaker 2: like a bad newspaper story or when an insider gets

2323
01:59:50,960 --> 01:59:55,120
Speaker 2: a story wrong, nobody remembers the retraction. No, never right.

2324
01:59:55,240 --> 01:59:57,880
Speaker 2: So even if they go and you know, after the fact,

2325
01:59:57,960 --> 02:00:01,080
Speaker 2: takeaway wins or try to take stuff away, you'll never

2326
02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:03,920
Speaker 2: forget that. You watch the Michigan Wolverines, I.

2327
02:00:04,000 --> 02:00:06,280
Speaker 3: Hope to take pictures of the removal of at least

2328
02:00:06,320 --> 02:00:07,760
Speaker 3: the asterisk from it.

2329
02:00:08,440 --> 02:00:10,920
Speaker 2: He's Dad, I'm Mike coming up. Aaron and Carrie, thanks

2330
02:00:10,960 --> 02:00:12,160
Speaker 2: for hanging with us on Fox.
