And we're gonna break down your dad's 18 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: airport rant towards the end of this because within that 19 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 2: rant I have a top five list of my favorite 20 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: things that came out of that ramp of Colin. 21 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: I want to start here. What was it like growing 22 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: up in your house? Sold? 23 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 3: It was great? 24 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 4: So my household, I'm one of four, right, I'm the third, 25 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 4: I'm the one of three boys, I'm the third over 26 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 4: and the total Polem's sort of that middle child, right. 27 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 4: My mother, a God bless her, is not a huge 28 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 4: sports fan. She gets it, but she understands to, you know, 29 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 4: stay out of the way. And when it comes to 30 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 4: watching games. My older brother likes basketball. That's really it. 31 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: He likes basketball, and that's sort of his little his Niche. 32 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 4: And my sister and my younger brother not sports fans. 33 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 4: So I was sort of the one that latched onto it. 34 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 4: And once that became a parent, then it became a 35 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,839 Speaker 4: problem because every time around dinnertime, Sunday nights, Saturday nights, 36 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 4: whenever we'd be watching games, it would turn into you know, 37 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 4: debates half the time because he doesn't give anything credit 38 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 4: for anything that happened, you know, after nineteen seventy five, 39 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 4: and I'm on the other side of that. 40 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,919 Speaker 3: So that's why we always go back and forth. Growing 41 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 3: up with it was awesome because I had. 42 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 4: Somebody to talk sports with all the time, twenty four 43 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 4: hours a day. And I think that helped him too, 44 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 4: because he needs it in some capacity. But I also 45 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 4: didn't grow up. I'm gonna I grow I was born 46 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 4: in two thousand and two. So I wasn't around during 47 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 4: the the Wfan days. Eight I barely remember when he 48 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 4: went off to Serious and left WFANU and left Mike Francessa. 49 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 4: So I wasn't around for that. I was more of 50 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 4: like growing up around the Sirious and MLB network and 51 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 4: now First Take. But it's great because you see everybody's 52 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: talked about with him, my dad specifically the kind of 53 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 4: resurgencies he's had. 54 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 3: Right he's had the Wfan that was sort of you know, 55 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 3: the bulk of his career. 56 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 4: He goes over to Sirius MLB network, happens, he has 57 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 4: a couple of moments, there's your second resurgence. 58 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 3: Now you're appealing to a national audience. 59 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 4: And then when First Take started happening, I remember Steve 60 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 4: A HadAM come on, I want to say, close to 61 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 4: two years ago to do Barry Bonds into the Hall 62 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 4: of Fame, and right then and there it was. 63 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 3: It got good buzz. 64 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 4: It was a good show, and I think by the 65 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 4: end of the day they had him inked up to 66 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 4: do First Take consistently. That's how that happened. It was 67 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 4: a random day where Steve and A needs help doing 68 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 4: some Arry bond stuff, calls in a good friend and 69 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 4: knows baseball and Chris Russo, and then all of a sudden, 70 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 4: that first take thing happens, and now he gets two 71 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 4: hours a week where he could just do whatever the 72 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 4: heck he wants, especially with that the. 73 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 3: Stupid what are you mad about? 74 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,679 Speaker 4: Segment where he brings up everything known to man from 75 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 4: Dave Pash's travel schedule to my grandmother's ville Parmesan. 76 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: On Christmas night. So I mean, it's all over the place, Nickel. 77 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: Look, you hear me. It's the greatest segment in sports media. 78 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: You hear me. 79 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: I love it. I love it. 80 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 4: It's it's objectively stupid, but it's funny. That's why it's great. 81 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: But that's why it's been fun to watch from my perspective, 82 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 4: because he's never been somebody to take himself too seriously, 83 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 4: and I think that is the right way to perceive 84 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 4: yourself and to kind of attack sports media because I 85 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 4: think he's easy to work with, and I think that 86 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 4: makes it easy for him to have a career in 87 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 4: different facets, because I do think people like working with him. 88 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 4: And I've always noticed that because I've sort of been 89 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 4: doing my own little work with him whenever we're at 90 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 4: the house watching games. So to make full circle, I 91 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 4: went in a couple different directions there. Growing up with 92 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,839 Speaker 4: him was great because you can talk about everything with him. 93 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 4: And I also, since I'm in the business now too, 94 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 4: I want to make my own career in this regard. 95 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 3: It's the perfect you know, guy in your corner, so 96 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: to speak. 97 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: You went in a million different directions because Colin Russo. 98 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why like father, like son. Man. 99 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you landed the plane. 100 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: That's what your dad's great at. 101 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: He'll bring it, you know, He'll go in nineteen thousand 102 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: different directions, but he always knows how to land the plane. Now, 103 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 2: so you mentioned the pre nineteen seventy five is all 104 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 2: that matters to him. The first time he referenced Otto 105 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: Grand did you have to look him up? 106 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, So what we did, I'll give you an 107 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 3: example of this. 108 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: This is also different directions. We do Auto Graham sometimes. 109 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 4: But I remember this was the last two weeks ago. 110 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 4: I was home and this is the type of thing 111 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 4: that we do whenever it's just me and him. We 112 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 4: watched and I wanted to watch it, but he, you know, 113 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 4: loop me in.

I'll send to you guys. 220 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 4: It's very funny because Mike is Lucy Goosey. You could 221 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 4: tell they're in a good spot relationship wise. And everybody 222 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 4: is pounding the food at the wedding, and they said 223 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 4: the food was like hospital food. 224 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 3: It was awful. 225 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 4: The band didn't have the instruments plugged in, and they 226 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 4: were basically bashing each other about the wedding, and my 227 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 4: dad's trying to fire back saying, hey, oh and I 228 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 4: didn't have a brawl at my wedding, And we're going 229 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 4: back and forth. It was one of those clips that 230 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 4: I listened to. I listened to probably two weeks ago, 231 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 4: and I'll send him it. He doesn't remember these conversations, 232 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 4: but like that's where and he got a kick out 233 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 4: of it. So I listened to as much as I 234 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 4: can the stuff that I really get into outside of 235 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 4: that fun stuff. 236 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 3: To Lucy Goosey, I like to listen to the interviews. 237 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 4: Because I think that's where I could learn from it. 238 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 4: They'll have George Steinbrenner on. I remember they had a 239 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 4: nineteen ninety interview with him before the Yankees got good 240 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 4: and everybody's questioning Steinbrenner's leadership, and they did an hour 241 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 4: with Steinberner and it just goes to show how sharp 242 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 4: Steinberner was because he was able to go toe to 243 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 4: toe with them. 244 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 3: But interviews like that I get a lot out of. 245 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: And that's when they're going after man and their managers. 246 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 4: I remember they did a good one with Art how 247 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: in the two thousands with the Mets, So I always 248 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 4: listen to that because I actually learned something from it 249 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 4: in terms of how to attack an interview. I think 250 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 4: they're really good at it, you know, hitting the right 251 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 4: pressure point because they had some unfair interviews in their day, 252 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 4: but they had a lot of great ones where not 253 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 4: only were the managers really good at answering to the 254 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 4: you know, the big bad New York media, which probably 255 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 4: is not as bad as it is nowadays as it 256 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 4: was then. And those are the stuff I actually learned about, 257 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 4: and the Lucy goosey stuff I get a total kick. 258 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 3: Out because it's so funny when they're in a good spot. 259 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 2: Specifically, they were better when they weren't talking sports than 260 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 2: they were when they were talking sports. I told Chris 261 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 2: that a million times. I've told Mike that a million times. 262 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: But when you listen back now that you're in it, 263 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 2: and you realize how difficult this is and how hard 264 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 2: it is to create chemistry with the co host, do 265 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 2: you listen back and appreciate it the way we do? 266 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: Because it was magical, man, And that's as good as 267 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: radio as I've ever heard, man, And I'm a radio savant, 268 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 2: but I. 269 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 4: Do, and you start to realize it because they did 270 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 4: what are they five and. 271 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 3: A half hours? They were doing one to six thirty, and. 272 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 4: It's just crazy the amount that they had to fill 273 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 4: on a random July afternoon, which is why that other stuff. 274 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 3: Really carried them. 275 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 4: They're very good at, not in a bad way, dragging 276 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 4: out a topic because you five and a half hours 277 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 4: a day. You got to there's not five and a 278 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 4: half hours of different topics that you can do quickly 279 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 4: like TV and radio. You could turn this into a bit. 280 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 4: You could do an hour on you know, Mike's lunch, 281 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 4: the Turkey club that he loved to have, you know, 282 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 4: so you could do that. And I agree, I do 283 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 4: think it gives you a newch or found appreciation for 284 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 4: just how rare excellent chemistry is and how much of 285 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 4: a it's sort of like a relationship that you have 286 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 4: to pay attention to because when their relationship fires, everybody 287 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 4: else is in a good. 288 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 3: Mood because everybody else is loving it. 289 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, they were good when they were, you know, at 290 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 4: each other's throats, but they were at their best when 291 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 4: they were on the same page relationship wise, off it. 292 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 4: I think that has been a big underrated aspect of 293 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 4: that success was they were stubborn in their own. 294 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 3: Kind of way, in their own route. 295 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 4: But when they were like cohesive, they were at their 296 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 4: best and they flourished because they knew how to push 297 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 4: each other's buttons in the best ways. 298 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 6: Yes, what is the take your dad has sports or 299 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 6: otherwise that drives you the most insane. What is the 300 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 6: one where he brings it up and you know it's 301 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 6: just going to be a fight. 302 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 3: We're just picking a fight here. 303 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 4: He's got no clue he's talking about in terms of 304 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 4: NBA history, He's got no clue. 305 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: He's talking about well, pre seventy five. 306 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 2: He does. 307 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 3: I think so like he has his moments I get 308 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 3: because he doesn't. He doesn't do that. Kuzzi is a 309 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 3: good example. 310 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 4: He doesn't do this properly because when he goes at 311 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 4: these arguments and somebody wants to bring up Janna Statu 312 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 4: Kumpo and they want to talk about how great he 313 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 4: is and this, that and the other, and then he 314 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 4: wants to circle around. He goes bring up Bobby Jones's 315 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,319 Speaker 4: stats from the nineteen eighty three six er team. I'll 316 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 4: show you a great defensive player. I'm like, dude, a 317 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 4: great player. 318 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 3: I agree. 319 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: But the point being is when we're doing this, you 320 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 4: gotta understand, and he doesn't give any credit to the 321 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 4: current day guys. You got to understand. The greatness is relative. 322 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 4: It's how good they work comparatively to the era in 323 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 4: which they played. And he doesn't play that in his 324 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 4: head enough because when he's doing, you know, eight teams 325 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 4: in the NBA. 326 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 3: Kozy, I get it. Kuzzi created the point guard position. 327 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 4: But you don't need to die in the hill. That Kouzi, 328 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 4: you know, would kill everybody in the NBA nowadays. 329 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 3: I had to listen to all this. 330 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 4: He wouldn't. He was great in his era. He wouldn't today, 331 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: And I'm not. I'd like history. I give credit to 332 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 4: where credit is, but I think the NBA history specifically. 333 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 3: He's good with the baseball. He's good with the football 334 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 3: and the baseball. 335 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 4: I mean the basketball is I think where he kind 336 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 4: of gets a little blind sided in terms of how 337 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 4: much he gives credit to the guys from the fifties, 338 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 4: not the eighties, not the seventies, the fifties. 339 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: Yes, that he will. 340 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 3: He will write. 341 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 4: Home about you know, George Mike and dominating a chem 342 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 4: Olaje one. I don't need to hear this. You know, 343 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 4: you're not selling me on anything, and you're not. See 344 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 4: there's nothing you can sell me on it. And then 345 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 4: he starts bringing up the stats. I'm like, you want 346 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 4: to do stats, We. 347 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 3: Can do stats. 348 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 4: I mean, this is this is a joke, like so 349 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 4: uh that the NBA stuff. The one to come to mind. 350 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 4: The Koozie one is a good example. I think whenever 351 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 4: he does the the big sports rivalries and stuff like that, 352 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 4: and he wants to give too much credence to like 353 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 4: I remember, he doesn't. 354 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 3: He doesn't like the Michigan Ohio state rivalry. He he 355 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: doesn't think Duke uanc is that big, like you know, 356 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 3: he's big about those. 357 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 4: But the NBA history specifically is one where we can 358 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 4: never see eye to eye. 359 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 3: And he's gonna and you'll see the stats like want 360 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: a player. I'm like you would. He's nineteen fifty nine, 361 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: what do we what we did? This is you know, 362 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 3: fifteen years before the merger? What are we doing here? 363 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 4: Like you know, I don't understand, right, So he doesn't 364 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 4: give credit to like he's you know, telling me that 365 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 4: joannist would get dominated by George Miken He would and 366 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 4: he would. He's George Mikeen was great when George Mikeen played. 367 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 4: You can't say that it's not fair. 368 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 3: You can't say it's just like you can't say it 369 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 3: the other way. 370 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: Yes, what he doesn't realize is they get bigger, stronger 371 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 2: and faster, and if you have the audacity to even 372 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: suggest that Donovan Mitchell is a better basketball player than 373 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 2: Bob Coosey, he would tear your fucking head off. 374 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 3: You know. That's that's a good example. That's a good example. 375 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 4: You're allowed to say that Donovan Mitchell is not as 376 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 4: great all time, but Donovan Mitchell, if you, you know, 377 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 4: shut them back sixty years they have, they'd have been. 378 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: Out for witch tracks witchcraft because of the shots he t. 379 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 3: I mean, what is this. Get this guy out of here. 380 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 3: This is ridiculous. 381 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 4: So that's that's something I would say, is the NBA history, 382 00:15:59,080 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 4: he doesn't. 383 00:15:59,360 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: We don't see it. 384 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 4: And we've watched those games during COVID. We would watch 385 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 4: the entire series. That's because they're all on YouTube. 386 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 3: It's pretty cool. 387 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: And I remember we did the seventy seven finals with 388 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 4: the Trailblazers. I mean, we did the Seattle SuperSonics years. 389 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 4: We did that famous Celtic Sun Game in nineteen seventy five, 390 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 4: the Triple ot game in Game five. 391 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 3: We did all that stuff. So we watched it and 392 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 3: I saw it, so like, I get it. 393 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 4: But we're on this either page where you got to 394 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 4: give credit to the relative to the era in which 395 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 4: they played that's a long winded answer. 396 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 3: I'm giving a long winded answer today there with me. 397 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: It's okay. You're your dad son, Oh, Colin. 398 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 5: I have a few sources on the inside, and one 399 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 5: of them told me that you're a youth basketball coach 400 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 5: and that you've kind of wrapped yourself in some controversy 401 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 5: when it comes to your youth basketball coaching. 402 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 3: So I'm glad you guys heard about this. 403 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 4: So I'm a youth basketball seventh and eighth grade coach. 404 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 3: Talk about you know, quarter life crisis. 405 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 4: You needs something to do right, And so the eighth 406 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 4: grade boys basketball, I'm a part of a corrupt league 407 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 4: with the president who I know, and the vice president 408 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 4: who is my boss, run the league. And they were 409 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 4: removing some of our players because our team was too good, 410 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 4: and I drafted the team. So now all of a 411 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 4: sudden they want to you know, you know, strip us 412 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 4: down on one leg because our team is too dominant. 413 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 4: So that's number one. So that's a waste of time 414 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 4: that they're that they're even. 415 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 3: Doing that doing that. 416 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 4: This is Steve pollitzinor So if you ever see Steve Pollatsino, 417 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 4: let him know that he's running a corrupt league, and 418 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: I know he is and he and he and he 419 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 4: thinks he's pat Riley. You know, he runs these practices 420 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 4: and he's like, you know, throwing clipboards. This is the 421 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 4: youth basketball league and he's telling he's threatening to trade 422 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 4: a kid in the middle of practice. 423 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 3: Guys. I mean, let's calm down, geezh. 424 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 4: So outside of that, the youth basketball is fun. It's 425 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 4: just something I could do on a random day. Got 426 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 4: a game tonight. But I'll give you a story with 427 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 4: my dad specifically, he has no interest in I'm doing this. 428 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 4: He's none, none, And he'll come to Palm Beach around 429 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 4: February when the playoffs are coming. And I couldn't tell 430 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 4: you how disinterested he was when I told him. I'm like, 431 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 4: it was the first time I saw him. Is he 432 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 4: got to the Palm Beach on a Saturday morning. We 433 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 4: had a game at Saturday at noon. I'm like, great, 434 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 4: you could come right to the game and you can 435 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 4: come say hello to your son and you haven't seen 436 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 4: six months. 437 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 3: And he goes, what time is the game over? 438 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 4: I'm like, no, no, no, no, You're gonna come to 439 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 4: the game so you can come say hello to your 440 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 4: son and watch your son do one of his pastime 441 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 4: to coach the team. And he shows up in a 442 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 4: northern Arizona garb with my brother coaches basketball in the 443 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,239 Speaker 4: Big Sky. And he shows up with the garb and 444 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 4: he I don't know if you've ever seen him on 445 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 4: his phone, he does the finger, the pointer finger and 446 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 4: the hand like this, and he's sitting there and it's 447 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 4: very close and he was probably placing a bet in 448 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 4: the Saint Bonaventure game. 449 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 3: But he's doing this with Rob. 450 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 1: Do that for him. 451 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 4: He's got fought Rob and he's not even paying attention 452 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 4: to the game. And then after the game, he tells 453 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 4: me the team sticks. That these are first of all 454 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 4: seventh and eighth grade boys that do not play basketball. 455 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 4: And my team went win list that year. So he's 456 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 4: telling me the team stinks and we just got eliminated. 457 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 4: And then he's telling me that was a waste of time. Guy, 458 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 4: all right, how about you seen your son saying hello 459 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 4: to you know, how's Colin doing? 460 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 3: You know, that's an example of that. He doesn't he 461 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: doesn't care about any of that. Ridiculous. 462 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: But if Honda was playing, holy shit, all right, if you. 463 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 4: Had some real big time players in there. You know, 464 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 4: seventy five years old, you know you'll go see. 465 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: Them, No problem, no problem, go ahead. 466 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 5: My other question for you is you're a Wisconsin guy. 467 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 5: Luke Fickle hot seat? 468 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 4: Luke Fickle definitely not hot seat because the team's broke, 469 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 4: the school has broke. 470 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 3: I'm not a Luke Fickle fan. 471 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 4: After his first season, you could see that Wisconsin was 472 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 4: in a bad spot. But the way I looked at 473 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 4: it is, ever since Nio opened up what was that 474 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 4: twenty twenty one, Wisconsin has not fielded a good team. 475 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 4: They have not even fielded close to a competitive team. 476 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 3: That is not a school. It seems like a rich school. 477 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 3: It's not a rich school. 478 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 4: It's got young money, not old money, and the old 479 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 4: money where you get the nil or the billionaires. So 480 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 4: not only is Luke fickles buy it, I believe twenty 481 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 4: five million they can't afford that. 482 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 3: They won't afford that. 483 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 4: And it's also a year where there's a lot of 484 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 4: coaching jobs in college football wide open, and Wisconsin would 485 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 4: get the seventh or e top guy on the market. 486 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 4: I don't think that's necessarily the pool they want to 487 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 4: enter themselves in. 488 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 3: So I'm anti Luke Vikel. 489 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 4: I would fire him tomorrow if they had the money, 490 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 4: but they can't afford it, and it probably doesn't make 491 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 4: sense logistically with how much competition there is in the 492 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 4: college football. 493 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 2: All Right, we'll get to the rantier in just a second. 494 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 2: When did you realize? At what point did you realize 495 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 2: I want to do this for a living. 496 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 4: I always liked talking about sports, and I always thought 497 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 4: I could do it, you know. Weirdly enough, I never 498 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 4: made that much of an effort until I got to college. 499 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 4: And when I got to college, there was a time 500 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 4: where I did a I called into his show. I 501 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 4: was eighteen, and it was after the Jets. Mike, you 502 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 4: should know this. The Jets played the Raiders, and this 503 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 4: was when they are trying to go winless, and there 504 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 4: was this before before they got Zach Wilson Trevor Lawrence. 505 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 3: I'm a Jags fan. 506 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 4: I wanted the Jags to get Trevor Lawrence, so therefore 507 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 4: him winning rooting for the Jets to win. And it 508 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 4: was one of those games where the Jets actually played competitively. 509 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 4: I know they ended up beating the Rams, I believe 510 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 4: later in the year, but they played at Greg Williams 511 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 4: Raider or Greg Williams the defense coordinator, and they played 512 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 4: a Raider team where Derek Carr had a game winning 513 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 4: touchdown to Henry Ruggs down the sideline basically as time 514 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 4: expired when the Jets had them dead the rights and 515 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 4: they blitzed eight guys. 516 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 3: I called into his serious. 517 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 4: Show and I was so distraught, so upset that I 518 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,479 Speaker 4: did about ten minutes, you know, ripping apart Greg Greg Williams. 519 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 3: And it got picked up. 520 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 4: By that Funhouse account and it got some publicity, and 521 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, you start hearing people are like, oh, 522 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 4: he sounds like his dad. I don't hear it as much, 523 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 4: but he sounds like his dad. He's got the chops 524 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: for this. Right then and there, I'm like, this is 525 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 4: fun talking about sports and kind of just like ripping 526 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 4: apart teams. And then I was a freshman in college. 527 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 4: That's when I started to make an effort to like, 528 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 4: all right, I can let's let's test this out. And 529 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 4: I found opportunities. When I was in Madison. There's an 530 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 4: ESPN affiliate out there with good Comma brand, So I 531 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 4: went to ESPN Madison. Eventually, by the end of my 532 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 4: sophomore year, I got a job there, and then that's 533 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 4: kind of how the ball got rolling. 534 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say that was the catalyst. I always 535 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 3: thought I could do it. 536 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 4: I always liked holding court and talking about sports, but 537 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 4: that moment was where I think I saw some validity 538 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 4: in the in the possibility, because you know, you had 539 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 4: a bunch of people either confirming or denying. 540 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 3: And then right then and there I got a wf 541 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 3: AN gig for just one show. I forgot to mention 542 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 3: that part. So that's when Preig Carton saw that. 543 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it got a lot of it got a 544 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 4: lot of you know, I got a lot of flat 545 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 4: for it. 546 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 3: What do you can do? And they Craig Carton, that's 547 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 3: what you're gonna do with. 548 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 4: Me and his son Sonny, And we did a random 549 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 4: holiday show two to four from wf Fan and I 550 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 4: had no broadcast experience, none, and I listened back. I remember, 551 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 4: make sure I talked to all the guys at w 552 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 4: fair New did it, and all those guys said like, hey, 553 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 4: getting in that of breaks, you were very smooth, You're 554 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 4: cohesive in your thoughts, you got everybody involved, You've got 555 00:22:58,800 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 4: your points through. 556 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 3: And that was me without any experience. 557 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 4: So I thought then and there, I'm all right, like, 558 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 4: I think this is coming fairly naturally to me. So 559 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 4: therefore I got a great opportunity with the connections that 560 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,479 Speaker 4: I have. But I also I have a true passion 561 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 4: for it. I was sort of, you know, bred this way, 562 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 4: why not try it? So I think that period it was, 563 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 4: you know, it was December of twenty twenty, was when 564 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 4: I thought, all right, let's let's give this thing a 565 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 4: rip and let's see where it takes me. 566 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 2: Russo and Risso four to six pm every afternoon, ESPN, 567 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 2: West Palm. 568 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: Colin Russo is with us here. Let's get to the 569 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: rant here. 570 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 2: Actually, you know what a quick question for a Jaguar 571 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 2: fan is Trevor Lawrence Good? 572 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 3: No, yes, see. 573 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: Right, No, that's the answer. 574 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 3: That's the right answer. I just gave you that. That's 575 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 3: the right right answer. So he is. 576 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 4: He's a little like Jamis where you know, he's like 577 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,719 Speaker 4: the best version of what Jamis can be. 578 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 3: But he's very polarizing back and forth. Yes, I think 579 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 3: Jacksonville nailed the head coach. I think the head coach 580 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: is great. 581 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 4: I think Cohen's a really good head coach. Lawrence you're 582 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 4: stuck with him. So I think Lawrence makes you want 583 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 4: to rip. 584 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 3: Your head out. 585 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 4: I think that game against Kansas City on Monday Night, Dave, 586 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 4: everybody who doesn't watch Jacksonville the real Trevor Lawrence experience. 587 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 4: One drive you want to kill the guy, and the 588 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 4: next drive he's leading the touchdown drive against Kansas City 589 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 4: to win the game. That's Trevor Lawrence encapsulated through and through, 590 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 4: and like they blew a nineteen point league two weeks ago, 591 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, they take down the 592 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 4: Chargers in a crucial head to head match up over 593 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 4: the weekend thirty five to six, and Lawrence plays great. 594 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 4: So he's a very strange, polarizing player. I don't love him, 595 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 4: but your stuff with him? 596 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 2: That should be the name of a podcast. No, yes, 597 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: Lawrence Radio, that's it. Oh yeah. 598 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: Are you familiar with the airport rants? Have you heard it? 599 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 3: Yes? 600 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: Yes? 601 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 3: Oh yes I have. 602 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 4: This is the one from last week? When did you 603 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 4: guys travel during any of this? Let's let's let's do 604 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 4: this really quick. 605 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 3: None of you guys traveled last weekend was when it 606 00:24:58,320 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 3: was really bad? 607 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 2: Did you get I did travel. I traveled through some 608 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 2: of it. I told your dad about this. But what 609 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 2: I love about your dad and his rant is he's 610 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 2: talked to all these people at the airport right Really, 611 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 2: what he's saying is there, he spoke to you, and 612 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: you represent every single person who has gone. 613 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 1: Through the airport. It's one of his go through moves. 614 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: It's fantastic. Yes, So that's that's so. 615 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 4: I actually traveled as well, and I traveled coming back. 616 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 3: I had a lot of issues. 617 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,479 Speaker 4: Delays, No, don't know where the plane is, we're switching 618 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 4: that out. 619 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: It was only about two or three hours, but it 620 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 3: was really so. He mentions this in the rant. 621 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 4: I'm not sure if you guys remember this part, but 622 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 4: he mentions two kids trying to get back to Wisconsin 623 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 4: to get to school. 624 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: He got the story completely wrong. 625 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 4: So I have two friends who I was with in 626 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 4: New York City.
