00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 3: The Knicks had won this game a three, a long,

20
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 3: wild three was off by the Nuggets. Everybody was jumping

21
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 3: around on the court except on the shot.

22
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: On the rebound, which went to nobody.

23
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 3: A loose ball foul called on Mical Bridges, who was

24
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 3: just pushing Jamal Murray.

25
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 1: Out of the way all the way through the paint.

26
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: They call the foul. He hits both free throws and

27
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: here we are in overtime. Never stand in front of

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: the pulling guard. What you know.

29
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 3: And here's the thing, And I'll be honest with you

30
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: on this, because this is one of those where you think, oh,

31
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: Jason's gonna lose his mind. Well, yes, because I lost

32
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 3: my mind a nice scream what I saw it. But

33
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: really it's it's it's not a foul that you call, right,

34
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: that's not something you call, right, You really don't. You

35
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: really don't call something like that. That's away from the

36
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 3: ball and he's pushing. However, don't don't do it. What

37
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 3: I mean, if you give him a little bit of

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 3: a push, okay, but he like rides him all the

39
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 3: way through the payton. Of course, it's what the officials

40
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 3: are looking at because that's where the ball is coming in.

41
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 3: So yeah, you know what, both things can be true

42
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 3: in that situation. You don't have to call that foul.

43
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 3: But wow, Bridges, you really made it easier to do it.

44
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 3: You really made it easier to call that foul, which

45
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 3: is like, are you kidding? Me on that like that,

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: like that, I'm sitting.

47
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: Here going eight in a row. It just beat the

48
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: nuggety echo New York go to and then I see going,

49
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 1: really we're going to do?

50
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 3: I had I'll tell you, Mike, I got the PTSD

51
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 3: flashbacks from Tyrese Haliburton. Uh the three point of that

52
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 3: clanged off the back of the room up and went through,

53
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 3: making the choke signal all the way through. I had

54
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 3: flashbacks that going game's over. Games are all come on, man,

55
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 3: I mean really, I had flashbacks to that moment.

56
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: Well, I understand that, and the vexation and the exasperation

57
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: of the moment because I was watching it without sound

58
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: like did they really call that foul? Wow? He's going

59
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: to the line? Is he?

60
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 4: Is?

61
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: He? And sure enough, there he go and you watch

62
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: the replay and it's just completely unnecessary. All he had

63
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: to do was go and stand in and let him

64
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: run into him. Instead he's full lead blocker and pushing

65
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: him out of the way. By the way, they have

66
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 1: let these guys get after it a bit like it

67
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 1: were the Eastern Conference finals of I don't know, pick

68
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: any year in the mid eighties or early nineties, but

69
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: that that was just degree just just completely unnecessary games.

70
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: One ball falls harmlessly instead a couple of file shots.

71
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: Now you've been helped by the fact that Jamal Murray

72
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: found his way to just fall out of bounds trying

73
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: to retrieve a ball. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that

74
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: was nice. Yeah.

75
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 3: Hey oh they Oh he slipped, Spike Lee tripped him.

76
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 3: I think Spike Lee trim Midam. But no, dude, I

77
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: am not okay right now. Man, I am not okay.

78
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 3: I know we're up by six with a minute forty

79
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 3: five left, but either like that was a win and

80
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 3: we just found our way to say, nope, let's keep

81
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 3: in the game. Let's keep you in the game. Man,

82
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 3: I went I flashed back to Halliburton. Man, that is

83
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 3: not I am not okay, man, I'm not ok okay

84
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 3: right now. This is the only team I have in

85
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 3: mind that's any good right now, that's playing or that

86
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 3: has just played.

87
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: I mean this, this is what I have right now. Man.

88
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: The Jets, you're building back. Oh dude, we're not building back.

89
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: We're anything. We're not building anything.

90
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 3: Long road begins with the first stops. What they're doing

91
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 3: is burning the team to the ground and then burning

92
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 3: the ashes. I want to make sure I want to

93
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 3: leave no trades, so burn the team and then whatever's

94
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 3: left he burn the ashes as well.

95
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: Let's get that gasoline on there. Let's go and ashes.

96
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: You appeared from that to ash as you return, and

97
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: here we go back to the sea and all that stuff. Uh.

98
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 3: So again we'll have more in the game of the

99
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 3: night again coming up in a few minutes, Nick Nuggets.

100
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: A seven point lead now for the Knicks with a

101
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: buck fifteen to go in overtime. But then again I

102
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 3: remember a seven point lead with fifty seconds left against

103
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 3: the Pacers.

104
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: So again down the PTSD.

105
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 3: Uh But if today, well the last couple of days,

106
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 3: with any indication, we might get a wild trade deadline

107
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 3: tomorrow in the NBA, because coming off of yesterday and

108
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 3: all the big news and James Harden is traded, and

109
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: and and Lebron James is not going to get traded,

110
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 3: and all the other minor trades where the Utah Jazz

111
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: for next year may have gotten better. Anthony Davis dealt

112
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 3: earlier today in a trade no one saw coming because

113
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 3: we all thought, well, it's gonna be the raptors, right,

114
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 3: you're keeping track of things today, they're down the road.

115
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: It looks like he could be a Raptor. All right,

116
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 3: ad the Raptors.

117
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, you know they kind of have to make

118
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: a move with something. No, no, no.

119
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 3: He is sent to the Wizards in a forty seven

120
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 3: player trade. Anthony Davis is now a member of the

121
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 3: Washington Wizards. All right, And the first thing is this

122
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 3: is that the Wizards. You put a stamp on this,

123
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: Mike Carmon. The Wizards have officially become that team where

124
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: if you get traded there, it means you need to

125
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 3: look in the mirror and see what you've done to

126
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 3: get to this point in your career. Like he use

127
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 3: me that way with the Clippers, Right, if you're a

128
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 3: Clipper man, you're just hanging on what am I doing? No,

129
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 3: the Wizards the last years have become Hey, man, I

130
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 3: was up at the top. I was great, man, I

131
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 3: was fantastic, And look where am I just got traded

132
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 3: to the Wizards?

133
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: Man? They haven't been trying in years? What is happening?

134
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: Like that's the biggest look in the mirror moment you

135
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 3: could have, is getting traded to the Wizards. And I

136
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 3: hope to you know, to put positivity on this trade.

137
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 3: AD has that look in the mirror moment, because man,

138
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 3: you get traded to the Wizards. That that's the that's

139
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 3: like the forced intervention, Like there's nothing we could do

140
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 3: for you. We'll trade you to the Wizards. Maybe you

141
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 3: figure it out along the way, maybe you don't, but

142
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 3: this is your last chance.

143
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: I spoke part of it into existence last night by

144
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: mentioning all the teams that might be contenders and actually

145
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: want a trade from Lebron James's contract, the Wizards being

146
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 1: chief among them. Well they got one half there. Now

147
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: you rejoin with AD. Hey, I didn't really mean to

148
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: get you out of here. I'm sorry. Look, there's like

149
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: fifteen guys in the middle of this trade, and there's

150
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: so much going on in so many smaller trades, and

151
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: we can run through them all. But for Anthony Davis,

152
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: it goes We go back a year ago, right, we

153
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: just commemorated that year anniversary of Luka donc Anthony Davis.

154
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: And in the moment, you're looking at what the Mavericks

155
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: had on paper with the roster and the veterans Kyrie

156
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: irving Anthony Davis like, could be interesting if they're healthy. Blah,

157
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: blah blah. Well, we know that didn't happen. And then

158
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: you get to this year and you're rolling through and

159
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: clearly it's Cooper Flagg's show and everybody else revolves around

160
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: him as as it were. And we'll see how many

161
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: more parts get dealt before the deadline tomorrow. But Anthony

162
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: Davis was just a piece. He's just a guy that

163
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: clutters up the lane. At this point. Dude plays a

164
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: little bit of defense when he plays.

165
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 3: I mean, this is how far he has fallen from

166
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 3: It's Lebron and Ad and it's gonna be the new

167
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 3: Dynasty LA and they win the Bubble Championship. Then it's okay,

168
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,679
Speaker 3: it's still Lebron and Ad. Then it's not Lebron and Ad,

169
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 3: and AD's the guy in Dallas. And now he's not

170
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 3: the guy in Dallas. And now he's a guy right

171
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: now now twenty.

172
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: Nine games this year, and it's back to almost like

173
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: when he was pouting and made his demands known in

174
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: New Orleans that he didn't want to be there. He

175
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: doesn't want to be the guy, and then he's pissed

176
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: when he's not the guy.

177
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I mean, just just I really hope

178
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 3: he has that moment because he needs it, because if

179
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 3: he doesn't, I'll give you a both. He's out of

180
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 3: the league in three years if he doesn't find a

181
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 3: way to take care of his body and get whatever motivation,

182
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 3: the visible desire that he has been lacking at times

183
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 3: throughout his career to be the best player in the league.

184
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 3: Like maybe he's not gonna be that guy anymore because

185
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 3: he's thirty two, but he's got to find a way

186
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 3: to stay on the court and at least appear motivated

187
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 3: all the way through because he's got a skill set

188
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: nobody in the league has. Giannis doesn't have it, Jokic

189
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 3: doesn't have it, Lebron doesn't have it. He's got a

190
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 3: skill set nobody does, and he's gotten by on his ability.

191
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: For so long. Like this is that moment for him, man,

192
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 1: Like this is okay.

193
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 3: After this, that's it. You got you gotta have time

194
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 3: where hey, you're a wizard, man and now you're a wizard, Harry,

195
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 3: you're a wizard. Ad you're a wizard now, and your

196
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 3: career now goes one of two ways. Either you find

197
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 3: a way to build this back or you are gonna

198
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: be out of the league in three years, because that's

199
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: gonna happen to Ad. He'll be out of the league

200
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 3: in three years by he's thirty five because he can't

201
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 3: stay on the floor and he's not the player he

202
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 3: was and he can't count on him. That's gonna be

203
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 3: AD's future.

204
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 1: Now, this one the injury a little bit different, right

205
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: ligament damage in his hand. But all all of it

206
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: to the history and everything adds up to a point

207
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: right now, and let's get to the financials of all

208
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: of this fun. He's owed fifty eight and a half

209
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: million dollars next year. Then he has, wait for it,

210
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: the dreaded player optioned in twenty seven, twenty eight for

211
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: sixty two point eight million dollars. Yeah, and he's eligible

212
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: for a contract extension this August. Is that what he holds?

213
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: Hey extend me? Yeah? Like no, you out about the

214
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: hook for one hundred and seventeen million dollars.

215
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna wait to out Ad, just so you know,

216
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 3: we're gonna wait out and see how things go before

217
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 3: we think about a new contract.

218
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,719
Speaker 1: Just so you know we're gonna kind of wait things out.

219
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 3: But you said a great thing, because what I want

220
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: more than anything, I didn't realize how bad, how bad

221
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 3: I want this because you know, retro is so popular

222
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 3: now and everybody loves going back, and I like going

223
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: back and looking at at at at un at errors

224
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 3: and sports that really need to be examined a little

225
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 3: bit more, right, Like, you know, I don't need another

226
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,079
Speaker 3: documentary on the sixty nine Mets. I don't need anything

227
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,839
Speaker 3: else on the two thousand and eight Celtics, Right, I

228
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 3: don't need anything else on I mean, Miracle on Ice awesome, Right,

229
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 3: But do we really need something else on.

230
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: We just got another one this night? Did we do this?

231
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: I don't need anything else on the nineties Bulls. I

232
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: don't have eighty five. But really, what I want, I

233
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: want the Wizards.

234
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 3: Please hold on to Anthony Davis, hold on to Trey Young,

235
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 3: hold on to di'angelo Russell, hold on to CJ. McCollum,

236
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 3: because I want to go back in time and realize

237
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 3: what it was like to watch the b Dream Team

238
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 3: from the early two thousands play, right, Because that's really

239
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 3: what this team is. Right when when the Dream Team

240
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 3: won in ninety two, ninety six, and then the guys

241
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 3: said we don't want to go anymore, right, And it

242
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 3: was Iver sitting a bunch of guys and lamar Odaman

243
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 3: and they lost. It was all my goodness, Like, that's

244
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 3: what this team looks like like you could. I want

245
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 3: to see what they're like on the floor, because I

246
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 3: want to go back to seeing what the b dream

247
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 3: team in the two thousands are like him and Trey

248
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 3: Young and D'Angelo Russell mccollins. That's what I want to say.

249
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 3: I so want to see that, Mike, You have no

250
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 3: idea like I would find out a way to get

251
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 3: a package of Wizards games. If I could see them

252
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 3: on the floor at the same time, that would be awesome.

253
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: They were able to get out of Anthony Davis's contract

254
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: in Dallas. This is absolutely amazing. But I like that

255
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: that lineup you just put out for the Wizards if

256
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: they retained it. I don't have enough time. We have

257
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: three hours and forty minutes ish of show left. I

258
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 1: don't think I could even read what everything that transpired

259
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: going back to the Luke of Vad trade as to

260
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: all the participants and principles involved players and draft picks

261
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: and whatever. Would take me about thirty five minutes uninterrupted

262
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: to get through that. So we'll leave that for another time.

263
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: But your all star lineup of years past, I mean

264
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: that is just fantastic and just bad money and more

265
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: bad money piling up. I mean the b USA b

266
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: Dream Team, you know, that was just fantastic. I mean that,

267
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 1: I really, I really, I want I want more on that.

268
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I want more of that, and I'm getting

269
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: it here. I'll get It's like I'm getting it. It's

270
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: like I don't have to worry about I'm getting exactly

271
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: what it is with these guys.

272
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 3: These guys who, hey, at one point they were really good,

273
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 3: but either they're on the other side of the mountain,

274
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 3: or they hit difficulties in their career.

275
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 1: Whatever it was, all these things, they were all star players.

276
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 3: Now that I get to see them all on the

277
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 3: floor at once, playing together, I want to see that.

278
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 1: Well. The best is I mean, nobody's taking on any

279
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: of these deals. They're either hurt, have been hurt, or

280
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: have these exorbitant salaries still on the books. Like we said,

281
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: with the one hundred and seventeen million dollars that's including

282
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: that second year player option there for Anthony Davis, you

283
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: ain't going anywhere. That's your final stop. You are a wizard.

284
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: You're a wizard.

285
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 3: Ad yeah, yeah, Haggrid comes out and lets him know.

286
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 3: And you know, I like shorting hackoes this guy.

287
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 1: Yeah that she injured a lot. Are we maybe I

288
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: could put you in Slytherin?

289
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 3: No, no, Slytherin her Okay, well, very talented.

290
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: Let's see. I like to how about huff a Puff?

291
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 3: Wouldn't they need be great Hufflepuff because you rarely saw

292
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 3: people in Hufflepuff.

293
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: That's a d he'd be Hufflepuff. That that is absolutely

294
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: uh true. Every once in a while there was the

295
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: garats He's like, yeah, remember they were in Hufflepuff. It's like, yeah,

296
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: that might have been in the book, that was not

297
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: in the movie. And I'll tell you what you want.

298
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 3: You want you want the one thing you could change

299
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 3: the draft to get people watch instead of instead of

300
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 3: having the draft, just have the sorting hat.

301
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: Put people into the NBA.

302
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 3: I think, if there's something to that, you come and

303
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 3: just sit there with the people.

304
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my good, here comes Cooper Flag.

305
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what's the sorting hat gonna say? That

306
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: would be outstanding.

307
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 3: That would be the best way people would like, I

308
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 3: don't need to watch a draft through I just need this.

309
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 1: I just the all the kids all they're all lining

310
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:56,680

Speaker 3: I think they wanted to have their whole lives and

334
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 3: instead they had to worry about fighting alongside a bunch

335
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 3: of kids that didn't know how to do spell.

336

Speaker 1: Well.

393
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 3: When you very carelessly take a team to double overtime

394
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 3: and make it everybody nervous, but then find a way

395
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 3: to pull it out.

396
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: Because your best player is the MVP, you get to

397
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,800

398
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: come on here, and then changes gets hit. The ball

399
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: is loose and it's alive. The play of the day

400
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: has to be a play from today. Out does it? Yes,

401
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: it does? Look man I've heard I've heard plays from yesterday,

402
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: last month.

403
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,479
Speaker 3: Jason, does it say the play of today or the

404
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 3: play of the day. It's a play, it's today's play

405
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 3: of the day. I'm seeing it right here in my notes,

406
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 3: and it says, tell Alex tyshirt, it's the play of

407
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 3: the day today.

408
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: If that buckles head gives you any more problem.

409
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 6: About three fifteens ago, double overtime, Brunson pulls up right,

410
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 6: so I knocks down the three and the Knicks have

411
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 6: a four point lead.

412
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 1: Time outs, Denvers, you.

413
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 3: Get that time out, Get that time out, David Attleman

414
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 3: Brinston with a huge game. The Knicks beat the Nuggets

415
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 3: in overtime after forcing overtime on a ridiculous foul call

416
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 3: on Mchal Bridges that was both stupid from him and

417
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 3: also a ridiculous call by the officials. Both can be true.

418
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 3: Brunson goes for forty two, nine assists and eight rebounds

419
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 3: in the win. The Knicks now they've won forty eight

420
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 3: games in a row. I look, everything is awesome now

421
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,120
Speaker 3: with the trade deadline tomorrow, right, I want to say

422
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 3: this because this is you know, we've talked about the

423
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 3: Knicks and the teams that are going to make moves

424
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 3: and not and doctor what you all. It seems to

425
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 3: be the conversation nashally is be what the Knicks lack,

426
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 3: What the Knicks lack, what they need?

427
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: What they need the.

428
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 3: Nixt A couple of bench players might be nice. We

429
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 3: told you last night. They're not going to upset the

430
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 3: apple cart for Giannis. Not at this point. That's a

431
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 3: postseason trade in the offseason where hey, we gave two

432
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 3: seasons to the Brunson Bridges, Karl Anthony Towns and uo

433
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 3: be Josh Hart Knicks and if that doesn't work, well,

434
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: guess what Kat's getting traded something else. It's an off

435
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 3: season thing. They're won eight in a row, so they're

436
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 3: not gonna suddenly go nuts. They had lost eight in

437
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 3: a row. I can see him going going after Yannis.

438
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 3: So anything they do, probably cosmetically it will be something.

439
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 3: Maybe they bring in an extra big uh you know

440
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 3: that that can that can play and facilitate. Maybe they

441
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 3: bring in another insiant offense type player off the bench.

442
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 3: That's kind of what I see. But for the Knicks,

443
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 3: what makes them absolutely deadly and and you know, I

444
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 3: don't know if you can quantify this with a stat

445
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you what. Watching all the NBA this season,

446
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 3: there is no team that runs the final four minutes

447
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 3: of a close game like the Knicks. They do not

448
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 3: get out executed in the final four minutes of a

449
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 3: close game. If they're down five or seven, that's usually

450
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 3: how the Knicks lose. Hey, they play they're not playing well.

451
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 3: Not you do other teams playing well. They're down five

452
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 3: or seven, that's usually how they lose a niptuck game

453
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 3: down the stretch where it's a one point two point

454
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 3: three point game. Either way, they do not get out executed.

455
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,959
Speaker 3: They have the final four minutes down pretty good, and

456
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 3: it's a team that they could underachieve for the first

457
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 3: forty four minutes of the game, and something, How is

458
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 3: this happening?

459
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: How are they letting this team hang around?

460
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden the last four minutes, Hey,

461
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 3: the Knicks wind up winning by ten. You know, it's

462
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 3: Brunton making big plays, bruntson it's and Unobe, it's Josh

463
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 3: hard who has become such a such a huge contributor,

464
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 3: even bigger than he was the last couple of years.

465
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 3: Nobody out executes the Knicks in the final four minutes.

466
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 3: You want to talk about what they do that's better

467
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 3: than anybody else. That's what the Knicks do and that's

468
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 3: why they're so good.

469
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's curious, is you know, and again measurements and

470
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 1: you kind of go down the run of where you

471
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: want to start your data points. Right. We do this

472
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: with the NFL all the times, like last four games,

473
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: last six games, home games, road games, when you know,

474
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: alternating Thursdays, whatever, same thing in the NBA. Right by

475
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: the clutch stats, Lakers are first, and then you get

476
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: to the Knicks at eleventh, by the by some of

477
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: the metrics that give you an eleven and nine record.

478
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,719
Speaker 1: But the thing I like watching them at this point

479
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: is you've got buy in from all the guys that,

480
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: let's just say sometimes that's in question. Right, Carl Anthony Towns,

481
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: I don't know if he just knew the eyes of

482
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 1: a nation were on him because there's nothing coming out

483
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl and we're past all the Hall

484
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: of Fame talk or whatever else, like, Hey, they're gonna

485
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: talk about me if I body up Yo Kich today.

486
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,439
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna body up Yell Kich today. So you

487
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: actually saw him throwing his ass around and when it mattered,

488
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: and late in regulation and overtime and in double o

489
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: D where he's clogging up the lane, he's making it difficult.

490
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 1: They're just saying, all right, let the big guys get

491
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: after it. And it was good basketball. It was fun

492
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: to watch uh.

493
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 3: And Karl Anthony Town's is gonna say, Hey, they'll talk

494
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 3: about me not as a as a piece of trade bait.

495
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 3: They'll talk to me as an about an All star,

496
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: Like I'm a feeling pretty good about it.

497
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: But that's just it. I asked, when you get an

498
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: effort like this, and to your point, yeah, there would be.

499
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 1: It would be nice to go find another rotational player,

500
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: someone that gives you some more offense. Shaman is generally

501
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: your your best score coming off the bench. Right he's

502
00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: back with at sixteen in his thirty six minutes tonight.

503
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: But it's it's the idea of when you know Joannis

504
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: And we'll have Rick Buker on later on tonight to

505
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: talk about it a little bit more. It's the if

506
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: I'm the Bucks, I want the best offer I can

507
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: get And how many teams are really just gonna overload

508
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: to bring in Yannis right now? Could happen in the

509
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: next twenty four hours. But it's not happened from the Knicks. No,

510
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: they have to give to make that work.

511
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, it's it's it's it again. It's

512
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 3: where you are at. The deadline is such a big deal.

513
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 3: And when you're beating everybody and you're out, Look, the

514
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 3: Knicks have shown hey when they made their defensive adjustments,

515
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 3: because they did they made a couple of pretty big

516
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 3: defensive adjustments a few weeks ago, and look at where

517
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 3: they are now. Man, I mean, I know it's January,

518
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 3: but hey, when you're unbeatable right before the deadline, it's

519
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 3: really hard to say.

520
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: Man, ah, do we really want to do that?

521
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 3: We really want to trade everybody away to go get

522
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 3: Yanni's and we sure that's gonna work.

523
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: Again, it's an off season thing. Well, but it's a team.

524
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: It's a team that is gelled because they don't run

525
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 1: that deep. It's seven and sometimes an eighth or ninth.

526
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: All right, whether Kolek has to start a game or

527
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: and play heavy minutes or whatever they need to do

528
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 1: on the front line. But when you've got Kat who's

529
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: bought in for an extended period, now will that be

530
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,360
Speaker 1: able to continue down the stretch. Will he be able

531
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: to play heavy minutes on both ends of the court

532
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: and continue to commit that way? I don't know, but

533
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: he is right now. It looks like the little General

534
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: has him working.

535
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 3: So again, we got more NBA on the way again.

536
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 3: Rick Bucher gonna join us next hour. We got a

537
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 3: big night ahead of us as far as what we

538
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 3: could be seeing trade deadline, Wife, you saw some other

539
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 3: deals earlier to day.

540
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean the Clippers play in a few minutes.

541
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did to get ready, get read the Clipper

542
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 3: and they'll find some way to get to get Garland

543
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 3: and Harden on the court against each other. We're gonna

544
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 3: find but they're not going out and we'll get him

545
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 3: out there.

546
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. We'll get about Clippers Cavaliers. Let's go.

547
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 3: But the biggest story in sports today I think took

548
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 3: a lot of people by surprise. It certainly isn't the

549
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 3: first newspaper closure we've heard about, but certainly it's been

550
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 3: the most high profile. But Washington Post is shuddering its

551
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 3: sports department. The announcement was made earlier today. No more

552
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 3: sports than the Washington Post. There's gonna have a couple

553
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 3: of people around. They have people out there covering the

554
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 3: Olympics right now and the Super Bowl that we're told, hey, sorry,

555
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 3: we've done this, now this again.

556
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 1: It's not the first, not the last.

557
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 3: I still can't believe the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, which is

558
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 3: shutting down for good, didn't get much more, didn't get

559
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 3: more play. But here Washington Post tried and true, one

560
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 3: of the biggest papers in the history of the United States,

561
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 3: and how important they are important, They've been high profile

562
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 3: the last few years. They are shutting down and eliminating

563
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 3: their sports department. Now there's a couple of things from

564
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 3: here and a big narrative that got out of control

565
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 3: today that I feel like, Okay, people just don't understand

566
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 3: a longer look at things. It's awful for all the

567
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 3: people involved are getting laid off, people that gave their

568
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 3: entire lives to the sports department, that loved doing what

569
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 3: they did. I mean, you hear the stories about Tony

570
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 3: Cordenheiser and Michael Wilbon and John Feinstein, all these legends,

571
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 3: these guys that have come through for the past thirty

572
00:25:58,359 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 3: forty years, all through.

573
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: The Washington Post.

574
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 3: But seeing the headline that, oh, the Internet killed the

575
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 3: Washington Posts and the Internet is killing all the newspapers.

576
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 3: That's not quite accurate. Okay, it really isn't because just

577
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 3: think about this from this perspective for a second. Just

578
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,640
Speaker 3: because something is incredibly successful for a long time doesn't

579
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 3: mean that it's going to be successful forever. Nobody thought

580
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 3: Toys r Uss was going to close. Everybody wants to

581
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 3: buy toy up. But guess what Toys r Russ closed. Wow,

582
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 3: that amazing. Well, they had a great run. They had

583
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 3: a great fifty year run. But guess what Toys r

584
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 3: Russ closed. Didn't think that would happen. Yeah, radio Shack.

585
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 3: Everybody goes to radio every guy goes to radio Shack

586
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 3: every day. Guess what Radio Shack close. Some organizations, businesses,

587
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 3: sports teams have runs that you think are gonna go forever,

588
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 3: and they're not because the world changes. And for the

589
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 3: world of newspapers, really, the world of newspapers demise has

590
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 3: really been a slow situation, going back to when color

591
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 3: Team went television and color TV first became part of

592
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 3: everybody's household, right because beginning of the twentieth century, there

593
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: were twenty five thousand daily newspapers. And you think about that,

594
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 3: twenty five thousand daily newspapers in the United States, twenty

595
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: five thousand. But that was back when that was the

596
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,239
Speaker 3: only way people got to get news. It was the newspapers, right,

597
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 3: So the newspapers ran unopposed for a long time. Radio

598
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 3: comes in a little bit, but still, Hey, these are

599
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 3: shorter programs, and I still get all my news from

600
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 3: the newspaper, but they're starting to be a little bit

601
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 3: of an alternative for newspaper. Then television takes over, and

602
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 3: from nineteen fifty to nineteen sixty in the United States

603
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 3: nine percent of homes had televisions to ninety percent of

604
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 3: the homes had TVs. Okay, so now you're getting news

605
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 3: on television.

606
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: Okay. Still people are.

607
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 3: Buying newspapers, not nearly as many as that were beginning

608
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 3: of the twentieth century, but there's still people are buying newspapers.

609
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 3: But now you have competition a couple of different ways.

610
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 3: Then you get to the eighties and the advent of

611
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 3: cable news, and news suddenly is the big competitor to newspapers.

612
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 3: Well wait a minute, I get everything here on television. Guy,

613
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 3: I turn it on I get to see it. And

614
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 3: still newspapers were important. But this is another arm biting

615
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 3: at this entity. And and it's it's it's like a

616
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 3: big fish in the ocean that's getting attacked by three

617
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:23,479
Speaker 3: somewhat large fish, but not as menace, right like you

618
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 3: have like if you have a shark, but it's being

619
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 3: attacked by by three, by by two big barracudas and

620
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 3: a you know, and and a and a at a

621
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 3: baby whale or whatever you want to say. Uh, yeah,

622
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 3: eventually the shark is going to succumb. And so now

623
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 3: you've had So you go from radio TV, which started

624
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 3: to eat away because as you see, as we go on,

625
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 3: and they're adding different ways to consume uh, to consume

626
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 3: news and sports, you see, okay, radio TV, cable news.

627
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 3: Then the Internet came and the internet really uh just

628
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 3: the Internet was more. Hey, we are giving you the

629
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 3: coup de gras. Right, this is what is because now

630
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 3: people can get their new any time from anywhere. They

631
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 3: don't have to wait for the newspaper. So this is

632
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 3: what it is. It's not the Internet didn't show up

633
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, boy, the newspapers got killed

634
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 3: because newspapers were still doing well. Even in the advent

635
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,719
Speaker 3: of cable news, they were still winning big awards. They

636
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 3: were still breaking big stories everywhere across the country. Right,

637
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 3: go watch Spotlight. You want to see the impact the

638
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 3: newspaper can have. So it's really it's not the Internet killed.

639
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 3: It's the Internet came along and it was the final blow.

640
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 3: Newspapers were wounded for a long time, and it's just

641
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 3: the final blow. And really because newspapers couldn't adjust, because

642
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 3: how can you adjust? Right, all these other news entities

643
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 3: are able to adjust somehow.

644
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: Uh, this is what did it.

645
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 3: And the ones that are still surviving now, I mean,

646
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 3: you have like less than a thousand newspapers left in

647
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 3: the United States. Now, are all the ones that were

648
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 3: able to take advantage of the Internet in the early days,

649
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 3: Like when the Internet came around it said to say no, no, no,

650
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 3: we're not going to embrace it. Those newspapers that embrace

651
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 3: the Internet are all still doing well. Right, you've seen them,

652
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 3: Washington postb the Internet, the rest of the newspaper going on.

653
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 3: All these papers that embrace the Internet put their content online. Hey,

654
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 3: they're doing great. The ones that didn't are the ones

655
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 3: that wind up get getting shuttered like this. It's a

656
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 3: sad story today. But to say the internet did it, No,

657
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 3: the Internet more just hey, we came in with the

658
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 3: killing blow. But this was something that was really, you know,

659
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 3: fifty sixty years on the making. It wasn't just it

660
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 3: wasn't going to be forever for newspapers and sports sections

661
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 3: of newspapers.

662
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: Look, in general, folks don't read. They scan headlines, misconstrued headlines,

663
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: blurbs that are pulled out by whatever source. And then

664
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: either you click in and actually read the article or

665
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: you don't. I mean, look at what we put up

666
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: from content here at Fox Sports Radio and then you

667
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: read the comments like you didn't listen to a minute

668
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: of it. But just to that point, right, if you

669
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: put a transcription up, right, do they actually read the

670
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: second paragraph that gets into the deeper point all of this.

671
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: When you go back to the evening local news followed

672
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: by Copple or Cronkite or or Peter Jennings or whoever

673
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: you watched, that was an hour. That's it. I got

674
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: all my news. I got a nice nutty the squirrel

675
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: that's surfing at the local boat show. I got a

676
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: couple of squirrel the square I did. And then and

677
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: then you're gonna take out, you know, your local sports.

678
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: Here's the weather, see y'all later. Now it's on the

679
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: wheel of fortune or whatever your next show was. And

680
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:33,479
Speaker 1: you moved on here, sitting down, finding time to really

681
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,239
Speaker 1: concentrate and read, you know, and and focus on that

682
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: versus its secondary experience. Right, you're not totally locked in

683
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: going all the way back to those days. Then you'd

684
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 1: have the the advent of the internet. And I always

685
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: joke about the Tom Petty line from the last DJ.

686
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: You know how much you'll pay for what you used

687
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: to get for free? Well ads and Java pop up

688
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: ads and all that stuff paid early on, and then

689
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 1: everything got put behind paywalls. Guess what, you can unring

690
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: that bell once I'm getting it for free. I'm not

691
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: gonna suddenly start forking out money. And so that hurts

692
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: as well. Circulation right now, ninety seven thousand daily for

693
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: the Washington Post, so many greats through the years, and

694
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: we saw all the tales today. So I feel for

695
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 1: everybody there. It's the sign of where we're at, and

696
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: it's a changing landscape and economy and look business time

697
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: and again you mentioned toys, r us how many people

698
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: wander either a Target or the Amazon Toy store during

699
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: the holiday holiday holiday season? Why because I don't have

700
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: to leave my.

701

Speaker 3: trending in the wide world of sports.

709
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,160

Speaker 3: In common with fraanber Valdez, he loves Detroit, it's Martin Weiss.

711
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,640

713
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 2: I'm here at work. So that's about where it starts.

714
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 3: Rich and he's rich because he works and he does

715
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 3: very well. It's not like the guy doesn't do anything.

716
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: No, I'm not saying he's not today.

717
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,640

Speaker 1: That was one hundred and fifteen million dollars signature. I

719
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:36,800

Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's still coplay. Let's donill fix you. It's

776
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: not that Fox Sports Radio.

777
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,240
Speaker 3: The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.

778
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 3: So bit a positivity on a Wednesday night, the final

779
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 3: big free agent in Major League Baseball is off the board.

780
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 3: Framber Valdez signed sealed, delivered three years, one hundred and

781
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 3: fifteen million dollars to the Detroit Tigers. But that is

782
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 3: what happened, the team that doesn't pay anybody. Right now,

783
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 3: he's getting paid more than everybody on the team one

784
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,959
Speaker 3: through twenty five. Uh, they don't do this. They don't

785
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 3: pay anybody, but they pay Framber Valdez three years, one

786
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,839
Speaker 3: hundred and fifteen million dollars. And it's a stunner, right

787
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 3: It's an absolute stunner. I'm thinking at this point, Baldez

788
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 3: has been out there a while, thirty two years old.

789
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 3: He's pretty dependable, good playoff performer. I miss some team

790
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 3: is gonna get him on the cheap. Nope, Tigers come

791
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 3: in and say, okay, three years, one hundred and fifteen million.

792
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 3: So big move for them, big move for the Tigers

793
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 3: right now, all of a sudden, they become one of

794
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 3: the top teams to beat major League Baseball because one

795
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 3: two with him and Tarik Schooble.

796
00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: Look out.

797
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 3: But just so you know, the positivity is there's a

798
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 3: little bit of a dark side here for this story

799
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 3: and it's good for you know, twenty nine of the

800
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 3: teams in Major League Baseball. The Tigers don't pay anybody, right,

801
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 3: they don't pay anybody. My family right now in Detroit,

802
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 3: they are so happy around yeah, yeah, come get us,

803
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 3: come get okay, okay. First of all, the Tiger's gonna

804
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 3: be pissed if his arbitration result comes back and they're

805
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 3: gonna pay him thirty million this year instead of nineteen million,

806
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 3: So understand that. But the Tigers didn't go out to

807
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 3: get Fraanbervaldez to say, hey, now with him in Tarik

808
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 3: School the next five years, next three years, good luck

809
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 3: beating both of them. No, they don't pay a lot

810
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 3: of people. If they wanted to pay and keep Tarik School,

811
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 3: they would have. They would have done that already. But

812
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 3: everything seems to be at arm's length. The Tigers seemed

813
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 3: to be all in on this year, and who knows,

814
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,720
Speaker 3: maybe if the arbitration number goes way up, the Tigers say, okay,

815
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 3: we don't want to pay this. We just paid one

816
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 3: guy thirty million dollars a year, or ready to trade him.

817
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 3: But no matter what, no matter how you cut it up,

818
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,760
Speaker 3: this year, last year for School with the Tigers, maybe

819
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 3: by the deadline if the season goes south, because the

820
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 3: Tigers didn't pay Valdez to be the number two with School. Again,

821
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 3: they don't give guys like this a lot of money.

822
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 3: They paid Valdez to be their ace sometime from between

823
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 3: this year and for the next two years after that.

824
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,760
Speaker 3: That's what they're paying him for. They have a pretty

825
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 3: good team, you know, the way that they are constructed.

826
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 3: They're constructed extremely well for playoff baseball. They're not a

827
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 3: team that's gonna win one hundred and fifteen games, but

828
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 3: ninety wins they get in the playoffs, they become a

829
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 3: really tough team. They grind out at bats awesome. They

830
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 3: signed Valdez to be that guy. School will be way

831
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 3: more expensive. They didn't want to do it. What are

832
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 3: we gonna miss or were really gonna miss a lot

833
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 3: the difference between Schooble and Valdez the next couple of years.

834
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 3: But that's what this signing does, is tells you that

835
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 3: he is gonna be out there maybe next year, definitely,

836
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 3: maybe by the deadline, and if his arbitration comes in

837
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 3: more than that, maybe sooner than that. But you can

838
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 3: count you can count the remaining starts to reiku Schooble

839
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 3: has with the Tigers and at least on a new team.

840
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: Since we were talking basketball a little bit earlier, when

841
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: Martin was finishing his update, he threw the lob up

842
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: and it was like someone pulled the plug out of

843
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: the TV, going no, no, no, no no, because he said, hey,

844
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,320
Speaker 1: who's going to be that? How long does that left

845
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: hand or record stand? Well, the obvious answer is when

846
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: does schoobl get his massive deal? And remember who his

847
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:26,800
Speaker 1: agent is. It's got boor us everybody, So you know,

848
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: whatever the arbitration number is, the likelihood of the two

849
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 1: of them being paired beyond October of twenty twenty six

850
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: is about zero. They are twelve to one to win

851
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: the AL after a slight O odds adjustment took him

852
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 1: from fifteen to one to twelve to one in a

853
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: couple of the sites that I that I saw. But

854
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: you're looking at schoobl whether he makes nineteen, whether he

855
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 1: makes thirty at the deadline, if they're not running away

856
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: in that division and looking like they're cruising towards a

857
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: playoff berth, he'll get dealt and plenty of teams will

858
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: come up and offer sacrifice for him, or it'll get

859
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: to the end of the year and he'll get his

860
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: two hundred million dollars.

861
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 3: Telling you maybe the number of starts for school ball

862
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,399
Speaker 3: as a Tiger is thirty, maybe it's fifteen, maybe it's zero,

863
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 3: because again he gets that thirty, you get that thirty.

864
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: Two million dollars. Well, we don't want to pay that

865
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: much money.

866
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 3: I'm telling you watch out, but Tarik's Schooble new uniform,

867
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 3: it's coming coming up. Next, we get into a big

868
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 3: story from the Super Bowl where someone says they don't

869
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 3: have a rooting interest, which tells you they're really rooting

870
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 3: against one team Fox
