Speaker 2: Exactly, people, because we know you're doning it in right now.

00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 2: all the big stories going on in sports right now.

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 2: Well you know that's actually on you. That's your mistake

12
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 2: because you should know there are no big stories going on,

13
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 2: you know, July.

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: People, what do he want us to do?

15
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 2: You know, be like ESPN and do like a college

16
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 2: football preview show.

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, here's a preview of that. You're bored exactly.

18
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 2: See, it's gonna be much better for you wait and

19
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: also for us because you see, this episode is what

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: they call in the business a clip show. Okay, and

21
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 2: now you're probably wondering, you know what is a clip show?

22
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 4: You get ficked out your pants and pencils because we're

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 4: given another education over here.

24
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what we do. So, yeah, what a clip

25
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: show is, we'll let you behind the curtain. It's when

26
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: we play you clips from previous episodes. Now here's why

27
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 2: clip shows are so good. Not only because they're jam

28
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: packed with entertainment, you know, because we've been number one

29
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: in this business for twenty three d isn't counting, as

30
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 2: you all know. But the other reason clip shows are

31
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: so good is, see what we do is we just

32
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 2: have some nerd edited cobble together a bunch of old clips.

33
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 2: You re listen to them, and then Fox Sports Radio

34
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 2: pays us the exact same amount they would had we

35
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 2: done an.

36
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 3: Actual show, and then boom, easy money.

37
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: Bro.

38
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, well except for our editor because you know, we

39
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 2: told them to choose our best dakes and well, how

40
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,279
Speaker 2: do you even choose, Tony?

41
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: Look, you can't, you can't choose because they're all perfect.

42
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

43
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,559
Speaker 2: Well, we also know how much you people out there

44
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: like when we lay into an idiot producer back there,

45
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 2: so we told our Rady to throw in a good

46
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 2: some of those good clips from that though.

47
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, lots of zingers in there. We got him good.

48
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: And since this is a clip show that applies to

49
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 2: the ads too, so right now we're going to run

50
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: a sponsored message from a company that was so pleased

51
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,119
Speaker 2: with the message we did for them that they actually asked.

52
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: Us to rerun it. So here, run that.

53
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 3: Again, run it again. Let's go.

54
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: Have you ever tried Australian food, Well, believe it or not,

55
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: it's not as weird and off putting as it sounds.

56
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: In fact, Tony, you have your own story here tell

57
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: the people.

58
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

59
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 4: A couple of weeks ago, I got my aunt Marie

60
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 4: and her boyfriend Nunzio a gift card to Outback Steakhouse. Well,

61
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 4: I saw them the other night, and Nunzio seemed so happy.

62
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 4: He told me he really enjoyed eating out down on

63
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 4: though with my aunt. I asked him what he ordered

64
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 4: that out back, and then he seemed confused. He said

65
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 4: he'd never eaten there and didn't even know what Outback was.

66
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 4: And I said, but you talked about eating out down

67
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 4: Under with my hand.

68
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 3: Oh uh, forget what I was saying. Let's just move on.

69
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: Terrific story, Tony. Anyway, a special treat for.

70
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,760

Speaker 1: Hundred dollars a more off of only valid in Alaska. Okay.

74
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 2: So now that we got that business out of the way,

75
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 2: it's time to look at some of our greatest takes

76
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: from this past year.

77
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: So here we go with top takes. What takes.

78
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 5: Such a sad turn of events as we saw at

79
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl, Tony, a great game overshadowed by one

80
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 5: bad call, and now we feel just terrible.

81
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: For the Eagles and also the Chiefs, don't we, Tony?

82
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, Now, all anyone's gonna remember from this game is

83
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 4: that bad call. No one will remember who won, or

84
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 4: who lost, or who won MVP. They will probably remember

85
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 4: the rush tds that Jalen Hurts had because that set

86
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 4: a record, yep. But other than that, everything else just forgotten.

87
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: So true, Tony, there are just certain times when you

88
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 2: shouldn't make that call. You need to let the players

89
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 2: on the field play the game, Isn't that right, Dony.

90
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 4: Of course, we can't be reinforcing rules all the time.

91
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,799
Speaker 4: Imagine if the cops pulled over everyone who was speeding,

92
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 4: the cops would be so busy giving tickets.

93
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 3: All the murderers would go murder. So if you say

94
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 3: all rules.

95
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 4: Should be enforced at all times, then basically your pro murder.

96
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: So elegantly put Tony.

97
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: And another thing we must point out is that the

98
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 2: refs didn't call holding the entire game until that final

99
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 2: call right there.

100
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: So you know, don't you.

101
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 2: Think that the players must have been looking around thinking, hey,

102
00:04:59,000 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: they're not calling hold.

103
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 4: Holding must be legal in this game. Of course they did.

104
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 4: You know, people always say there's an exception to every rule. Well,

105
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 4: how is anybody gonna know what the exception is and

106
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 4: what's not. It's very confusing and frankly, it's a mixed

107
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 4: message to players.

108
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,799
Speaker 2: Okay, we got to defend someone who is once again

109
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: being unfairly adapt Of course, Ja Moranto again, for some reason,

110
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: is in hot water just for flashing a gun on Instagram.

111
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't get it, Tony, this is ridiculous.

112
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 4: Explain to the people why you know, John Morant lives

113
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 4: in Memphis.

114
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 3: The team is called the Grizzlies.

115
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 4: If you live in an area prone to grizzly attacks,

116
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,239
Speaker 4: then it would be stupid not to carry a gun.

117
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 1: You know.

118
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 4: Frankly, when I saw the video, I was shocked because

119
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 4: I thought he should be carrying something bigger, like a

120
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 4: rifle or a bazooka or something. Do you ever see

121
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 4: the movie The Relevant with Leonardo DiCaprio that one scene.

122
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 2: It's terrifying, terrific point that Tony and you know Ja

123
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 2: Moran's critics out there, these idiots, you know, they're.

124
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: Saying that this is not how a role model.

125
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: Should behave excuse me, Oh yeah, well, why don't you

126
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 2: tell that to John Wayne?

127
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, a real Harry Why at ark the best?

128
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 2: You know, people they're already up in arms about this

129
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: NFL schedule because it includes a Friday night game for

130
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: the first time. They're going to be playing on Black Friday,

131
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 2: November twenty fourth, and so that people are saying that

132
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 2: adding another night of football as they always do, They

133
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 2: say it adds to the injury risk. You know, yeah,

134
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 2: read that danger. You know, we listen on this show

135
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: to complaints. We hear the people. But what we do

136
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: that separates us as we come up with solutions. And Tony,

137
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 2: you said something the other day that was just so smart.

138
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: It was just such a simple solution. Go, don't tell

139
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: the people.

140
00:06:58,560 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 3: Here's my solution.

141
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 4: If the players need more days to rest, then there's

142
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 4: clearly a simple fix, add more days to the week.

143
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 4: If weeks had eight days instead of seven, there would

144
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 4: be no problem. So I propose that during NFL season

145
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 4: we add a day called Moosday, which comes between Monday

146
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 4: and Tuesday. Now you're probably saying, won't this add more

147
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: days to the year. No, because just simply remove seventeen

148
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 4: days from August. Nobody likes August anyway. It's boring and

149
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 4: hot and everyone's over it. So there add Moosday plus

150
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 4: take away half of August.

151
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: Problem solved.

152
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 2: Just an absolutely brilliant solution by you, Tony, and thank you.

153
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: Don't be surprised people when September rolls around and you're

154
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 2: all rushing out to buy new calendars.

155
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, and get used to saying tgim yeah Moosday there.

156
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: Okay, just a terrible week for ESPN. Two shocking incidents

157
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 2: occurring during the Morning Show first take, and we're gonna

158
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: talk about one of them right now.

159
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: It occurred on the segment where Stephen A.

160
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: Smith was asking long time New York sports broadcast of

161
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: Michael Kay to name who he thought would be the

162
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 2: next New York team to win a championship.

163
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: Let's go ahead, and play that clip.

164
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 6: Which team in New York do you think wins a

165
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 6: championship next?

166
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: Rangers?

167
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 7: Oh lord, come on, Patrick, they don't count, don't They

168
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 7: don't count.

169
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 3: The only thing I know about hockey that black and

170
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 3: I love Gary's my button.

171
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 5: It is no disrespect to the Rangers, aunt to Patrick

172
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 5: kne of course, but just just for Steve Football.

173
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

174
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 3: Wow, I still can't believe it. Just so disrespectful, disrespectful.

175
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: You know you're here even a they're.

176
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 2: Totally shutting down the hockey conversation, trying to shift the

177
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 2: conversation of football, baseball, basketball.

178
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: The NHL has always been considered one of the four

179
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: major sports.

180
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: You know, it's right up there with NFL, NBA, and MLB.

181
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 3: Totally. Nothing competes with it absolutely.

182
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, well unless you count NASCAR, but.

183
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 3: That's only in the South regional.

184
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, and uh maybe UFC, but that's on pay per

185
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: view elitist. Yeah, and uh maybe golf with Tiger Woods,

186
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 2: but he's out of the picture now, peg leg And

187
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: I guess you got to throw in.

188
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: College football and college basketball.

189
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 3: Too, which is not pro, not not pro.

190
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 2: And well maybe you got to throw in little league

191
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 2: baseball because that.

192
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: Does do big numbers for about a month each year.

193
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's true. And also poker also true. Horse racing,

194
00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 8: Yeah that's fair. But it's animal sports. So you know, Asterick, well.

195
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,959
Speaker 9: Other than that, you know, hockey is a Big four sport.

196
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 9: It's undispotally can't argue on the subject of arguing. Another

197
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 9: great transition there by you, Dony theristic.

198
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 3: Thank you.

199
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, that leads to another.

200
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: Incident we saw on First Take this week, brewha breaking

201
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 2: out between JJ Reddick and Kendrick Perkins.

202
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: You know, Reddick fired back at Perkins.

203
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,239
Speaker 2: Because he thought Perkins was accusing the NBA MVP voters

204
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 2: of being kind of racist. I guess because they gave

205
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 2: MVP awards to Nicola Jokick, Dirk Nowitzki, and Steve Nash

206
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: and now they appear to be giving the awards a

207
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: Joe kick once again. And you know, Tony, it is

208
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: an interesting point that Kendrick Perkins is making here, but

209
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 2: you felt he missed the point kind it, didn't you.

210
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 4: Unfortunately, Yes, you see, Kendrick Perkins was on the right

211
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 4: track with his criticism of NBA MVP voting, but a

212
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 4: closer look reveals that the real reason Nicola Joe keeps

213
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 4: getting named MVP. Is that in sports media there's clearly

214
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 4: a strong pro Serbian bias. You think it's bad with

215
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 4: the NBA MVP, just look at the award for ATP Tennis.

216
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 3: Player of the Year. Every year they got Novak Djokovic

217
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 3: winning over and over again, as you can see more

218
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 3: evidence of clear Serbian bias.

219
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 2: Terrific journalism and research that Dodika truly.

220
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: The biggest story in all of basketball.

221
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 2: And no, it's not the Denver Nuggets making the NBA Finals,

222
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 2: Nobody cares. And it's definitely not Lebron possibly retiring please

223
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 2: get good riddance to him. Yeah, exactly. And it's definitely

224
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: not Carmello Anthony retiring.

225
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 3: I thought he retired like five years ago.

226
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, same here.

227
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 2: Anyway, the biggest story is clearly what's going on in

228
00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 2: the WNBA. Britney Griner's w NBA return to the Phoenix

229
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: Mercuries was the league's most watched.

230
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: Game since nineteen ninety nine.

231
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 2: It scored six hundred and eighty three thousand viewers, you know,

232
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 2: which is so virtually nothing, but you know, in WNBA.

233
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,839
Speaker 3: Terms, that's fruet ball numbers exactly.

234
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 2: Anyway, Tony, don't be surprised, you know if other leagues

235
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 2: take notice.

236
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 4: Of this, right absolutely, you know, if I'm NHL Commissioner

237
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 4: Gary Bettman, I have to consider copying the Britney grind

238
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 4: of strategy to juice ratings. You take that conom McDavid guy,

239
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 4: and you send him over to Russia and have him

240
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 4: imprisoned in a Russian jail for only a year or so.

241
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 4: Then we trade him back to America for a Russian

242
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 4: war criminal and bada binglada bum. Everyone's watching oiler games again,

243
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 4: record ratings exactly.

244
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 2: And you know you look at the NBA right now,

245
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: you know you got this possible Nuggets heat turd of

246
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 2: a final that nobody wants to watch. Yeah, Adam Silver

247
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 2: right now has got to be considering having North Korea

248
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 2: maybe capt Jamal Murray, you know, just for a few days,

249
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: you know, just before the series starts, and maybe you

250
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 2: know you think about it right at game time, you know,

251
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 2: Jamal Murray just parachutes down into the arena like a

252
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 2: fan man.

253
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: You know, the ratings would be.

254
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,479
Speaker 4: Your ratings through the roof. In fact, the PGA Championship

255
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 4: just got its lowest ratings since two thousand and eight.

256
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 4: Don't be surprised that before the US Open Rooks Koepka

257
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 4: winds up being captured by a Venezuelan drug cartel or

258
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 4: maybe a roving band of sea pirates.

259
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 2: Terrific points Tony bound to happen O Skip Dayls and

260
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 2: Shannon show Ye you know, get your divorce because they

261
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: seem to clearly hate each other any way. You know,

262
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 2: people are saying that this is all Skip's fault, that

263
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 2: Shannon's right to believe in all this. What you know,

264
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 2: this is what I totally hate about sports TV these days.

265
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: You know, this idea that these former athletes can come

266
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 2: on and be better at sports talk than journalists and

267
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: seasoned radios. It's just predict us and frankly rude to

268
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 2: our proud profession, isn't it, right, Tony.

269
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: You know, it's a toxic situation because these Hall of

270
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 4: Fame athletes on TV now, they just naturally assume they

271
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 4: know more about sports because they, you know, we're in

272
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 4: locker rooms and actually on the field, and that's a

273
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:18,599
Speaker 4: real problem.

274
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 2: It's just terrible, you know, ruining the whole foundation of

275
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 2: what our proud industry of sportstock radio is built.

276
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 6: On.

277
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 2: You know, we understand and Skip Bayless understands tool that

278
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 2: the only way to have con perspective on sports is

279
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: to have no direct association with it at all.

280
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: That's how you remain.

281
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 3: Objective, exactly. You gotta be objective, Skip Bayless.

282
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: He's looking for a replacement who won't argue with him

283
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 2: so much, won't you know, debate him.

284
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: As so much fun?

285
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, we totally agree with what Skip is doing here absolutely.

286
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: Who why would anyone in their right minds want to

287
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 2: have a co host on their own show who disagrees

288
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: with everything they say?

289
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: Oh you want that, Tony?

290
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 3: No?

291
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 4: I mean that makes absolutely no sense, right one.

292
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 2: I mean, you can have compelling, interesting conversation just like

293
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 2: the one we're having right now and agree on everything.

294
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 4: Right, you'll hit the nail smack on the head as usual.

295
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 4: I got nothing further to add because you nailed it.

296
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: There you Goere you go. That's how it's done.

297
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 2: We saw an absolutely terrific take on Jampet this week

298
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 2: from just a brilliant observer of sports. Of course, I'm

299
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 2: talking about Chris mad Dog Russo, who said, boldly and correctly,

300
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 2: mind you, that this year's Nuggets team was totally overrated

301
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 2: and that the nineteen eighty six Celtics would sweep the

302
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 2: Nuggets four row, no contest, and Tony mad Dog Russo

303
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 2: is so right here is it?

304
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 4: Absolutely this year's Nuggets team would stand no chance against

305
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 4: the eighty six Celtics. All you gotta do is look

306
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 4: at the number of Hall of Famers on each team.

307
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 4: That's the ultimate way to judge a team. That eighty

308
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 4: six Celtics had six Hall of Famers, the Nuggets have none.

309
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 3: That's a glaring difference.

310
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 2: Such a great point that Dony, and you know another

311
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 2: angle here that you know, I can't believe the media,

312
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 2: or maybe I can believe that the media is just too.

313
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: Chicken to talk about. You'll hear it on this show people.

314
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 2: Doesn't anybody find it a little strange that in the

315
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: span of a week we've seen two athletes with major

316
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 2: championships from a country that nobody's heard of. You got

317
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 2: Novak Djokovic Serbian when in the French Open. Then you

318
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 2: got Nicola Jokik, also Serbian, with in the NBA finals,

319
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: and nobody in our business seems to bat and I

320
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 2: find and find this weird.

321
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: It's it's very disconcerting, isn't it, Tony Very.

322
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 4: You know, I don't get my information from the Internet

323
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 4: because I'm not dumb and gullible. I go to trust

324
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 4: sources like Encyclopedias. I went to my most trusted world book,

325
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 4: Encyclopedia that I've had for thirty years. And what's so

326
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 4: strange is that there's no mention of a country called Serbia.

327
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 4: But now everyone's talking about Serbia this and Serbia that.

328
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 4: Isn't it just a little strange how this quote unquote

329
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 4: country is so important all of a sudden.

330
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: Just terrific perspective and research that Dony, and thank you.

331
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 2: What I'm about to say is controversial, but you know

332
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 2: it's a duty as journalists it must be said.

333
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: What about Chernobyl.

334
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 2: You know you had all that nuclear radiation springing all

335
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 2: over the place like forty years ago or so.

336
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: You look now at what's going on.

337
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, You got these monster athletes sprouting

338
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 2: up everywhere in this country over there.

339
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 3: You know we've seen this before. Just look at the

340
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 3: incredible hulk.

341
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 4: The radiation transformed Bruce Banner and made him huge. You absolutely,

342
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 4: one hundred percent have to consider that maybe all those

343
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 4: gamma rays from Chernobyl got into their DNA and gave

344
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 4: them super strength.

345
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: You absolutely have to.

346
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, this is what they call them, the

347
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 2: business people, investigative journalism.

348
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 1: We do real news on the show.

349
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 4: Wow, Wow, incredible. I got geese bumps just listening to those.

350
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: And you know that was just one percent of all

351
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 2: the great days that didn't even that was just you know,

352
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 2: not even the tip of the iceberg. But like is

353
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: above the dip anyway, by now public demand.

354
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: You know people out there.

355
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 2: You also like that part where you know, our producer

356
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 2: Jay interrupts with his stupid corrections and you know we.

Speaker 6: He said, Jamaran needs a gun to protect himself from

361
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 6: Grizzly Bears running around Memphis.

362
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. Bro, yeah, the team's called the Grizzly bro.

363
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 6: They're called the Grizzlies because they originally played in Vancouver.

364
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 6: There are no Grizzly Bears in Memphis.

365
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,520

Speaker 1: We're done. Unts.

370
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 6: You keep saying the Nuggets player is Nicola joke Kick.

371
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 1: Yeah it's his name.

372
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's.

373
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 6: Nicola Jokic, not joke Kick. Maybe you should try watching

374
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 6: a Denver Nuggets game.

375
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,440

00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 4: Yeah you know what, I can't wait to watch your funeral.

378
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,679
Speaker 7: Oh, James Bradbury did admit that he held juju Smith Schuster,

379
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 7: so so what So if a player admits that he

380
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,479
Speaker 7: committed a penalty, there should be no discussion after that.

381
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 7: It's over.

382
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 1: You're right. The only thing we should discuss is where

383
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 1: to bury your body.

384
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's only one penalty we should discuss with you,

385
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 4: the death penalty.

386
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: Oh got them.

387
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 6: You basically slammed ESPN for not talking hockey on their

388
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 6: debate shows.

389
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's shameful of them, totally.

390
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 6: You guys never talk hockey on this show. In fact,

391
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 6: I don't think i've heard you talk hockey ever.

392
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well I don't think i've ever heard you

393
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: shut the up.

394
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, hockey reminds me of your love life. Cold as ice, Yeah.

395
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 6: You said, serbian athletes are so dominant because of the

396
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 6: nuclear effects of Chernobyl.

397
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, bro crazy upsetting, but true.

398
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, if that even was true, Nuclear radiation doesn't make

399
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 6: it stronger. You only see that happen in comic books,

400
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 6: not in real life.

401
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well you know what else you only see

402
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: in comic books, nerds like you.

403
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know what's also not in real life?

404
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 3: Your girlfriend? Yeah, he's done. Shit, let's get out of

405
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 3: it here, we're done.

406
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 6: By the way, what you do realize why there's no

407
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 6: such country called Serbia thirty years ago?

408
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 3: It's mysterious, bro very mysterious.

409
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 6: Serbia was part of Yugoslavia then it declared independence in

410
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 6: two thousand and six. But I shouldn't be surprised if

411
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 6: you don't know that though.

412
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,320

00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: You know, Tony, we really need to get a new

427
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: have to lift a finger.
