I want 50 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 2: to I'm want to start off a little Wimbledon today 51 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: because you know, this was quite a story about this 52 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: American Amanda and a Samova, who you know, a quick 53 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 2: tennis Essentially two years ago, she had basically had a 54 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: total burnout. She had gotten to the French Open semis 55 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 2: as an eighteen year old back in twenty nineteen. She 56 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: was being touted as a potential new star for the 57 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 2: United States. Her parents are from Russia, but she was 58 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 2: born in the United States, and she got burned out 59 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: and she just quit. And so this is sort of 60 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: a two year comeback and she beats Saba Link in 61 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: the semi. So she finally gets this opportunity, you know, 62 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 2: where a lot of people thought she was going to 63 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: be making it to a Grand Slam final, and she's 64 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 2: taken on fiantech and this was unreal. 65 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: Can you I'm trying to. 66 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 2: Get in the head when you lose on the biggest 67 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: stage in tennis, which is a Wimbledon final, and you 68 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: lose six love, six love in the final, and this 69 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: has a this only happened one time ever at Wimbledon, 70 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: and I did not see this. Some people think I'm 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: old enough to have seen it. It was a nineteen eleven. 72 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: It is the only time ever a double goose egg 73 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: in a women's final at Wimbledon. 74 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: I just can't imagine what was going through her head. 75 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 3: Did you watch?

And I hope 83 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 2: that what happened today is not going to set her back. 84 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: But I mean, it was there for the world to 85 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: see six love, six love less than an hour, and 86 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: you get humiliated on the biggest stage of tennis, which 87 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 2: is a Wimbledon final.

And well you're citing some reasons again, 147 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: pampered at at a level that we've never seen. 148 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 3: And you know I can say this on my own 149 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: twenties side, why don't. 150 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,679 Speaker 4: We have why don't we have dodgeball in elementary school anymore? 151 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 3: Yeah? 152 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 4: Right, yeah, like like the whole Like you know, you know, 153 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 4: I grew up in an age where you know, I participated. 154 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: I played soccer, I played softball, and I was blessed 155 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 4: with with genetically athletic talent where I was always either 156 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 4: the captain or the first or second best player on 157 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 4: the team. And you know, whether I came to a 158 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 4: practice or not, I always played because the name of 159 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 4: the game is winning, right, Where the last ten to 160 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 4: fifteen years has been like, oh, well, this player came 161 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 4: to every practice that player did not. Even though the 162 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: player that did not come to the practice is the 163 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 4: better player, they're not going to start. They're not going 164 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 4: to play because this other player who's not as good 165 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 4: as that one came to every Like. 166 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 5: That's where we're at. 167 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 4: It's not all about winning, right. So there's no more 168 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 4: dodgeball in elementary school, right because, for a variety of reasons, 169 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 4: everybody gets a trophy for participating, as opposed to you 170 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 4: only get a trophy for winning. It's a different mentality 171 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 4: now growing up. And then there's a whole nother element 172 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 4: in regard to social media Steve that I think adds 173 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 4: a lot of pressure to a lot of athletes well. 174 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: And especially body shaming women and Anisimova was getting, you know, 175 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: for a better term, I get fat shame, which is ridiculous, 176 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: but I mean this was something that was going on 177 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: in her world a couple of years ago, which is ridiculous. 178 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 2: I mean we're talking about a girl in her early twenties. 179 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 2: I don't know, I just how do you stay away 180 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: from the social media if you're an athlete? 181 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 3: I mean think you can? 182 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 4: How can you can?

I launched it during March madness. It's been 185 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 4: an education to me. It's it's the way of the 186 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 4: world now right like like like, with all due respect, 187 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 4: I love doing the show with you, but like more 188 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 4: people are consuming their their media, whether it's it's it's 189 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 4: TV radio, like, more people are are are consuming their 190 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 4: media via social So I don't and and especially at 191 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 4: her age, how can you not stay off it? 192 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: Well, I have a twenty four year old daughter, so 193 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 3: I am.

And I know 196 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 2: how act of my daughter is on social media and 197 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: everything else. I mean, it's just it's unfortunate. I was 198 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 2: dying for her because you could see that she was 199 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 2: our head. 200 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,599 Speaker 4: Was being out the same. 201 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 3: Unforced harriers. 202 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: And of course let's not let's not forget that San 203 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 2: Tech played a perfect match. I mean, she has struggled 204 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 2: at Wimbledon, She's won four French Opens, she's won the 205 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: USO too. You never really had done anything. One quarterfinal 206 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 2: run is all she had to show for her previous 207 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: Wimbledon appearances. 208 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 3: But she steamrolled her. 209 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 2: So it's a combination of Anisimova obviously struggling with her 210 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: own game and then Santech just you know, playing a 211 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: perfect match, and literally that was the end result. 212 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 7: All right. 213 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 2: A little bit later on, we're gonna break down the 214 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 2: men's final tomorrow between Acarez and Sinner.

Joining us right now, a Hall of famer 253 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: in our who knows, maybe someday he will get honored 254 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 2: by the Pro Football Hall of Fame. 255 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 3: He should if. 256 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 2: They recognize the work that he has done over these 257 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 2: many years. The great Adam Kaplan is joining us right now, 258 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 2: by the way. Speaking to Adam, we're obviously going to 259 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: talk about what's going on right now getting ready for 260 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: the season. But I saw Dominic and Sue retired, which 261 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 2: news to me because he hadn't played a game since 262 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two. But I guess, you know, three years 263 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: to think about it, he finally retired. We know that 264 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: in two thousand and nine he should have won the 265 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy. He should have won the Heisman. It was 266 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: a very weird four four player cluster between mark Ingram, 267 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 2: Toby Gerhart, Colt McCoy and Dominic and Sue. 268 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 3: But I never you have I remember all these things. 269 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 2: But anyway, but Sue to me should have been the 270 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy winner that year. And then of course he 271 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: made an immediate impact with the Lions. Ironically, of course 272 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: he finished his career as an Eagle. But what in 273 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 2: your mind is the legacy of Endomic and Sue And 274 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 2: did he accomplish enough in his pro career to earn 275 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: a ticket in Canton someday. 276 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 9: Typically, Steve, you kind of know when a guy's Hall 277 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 9: of Famer and whatever sport is without looking you know, 278 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 9: your initial point, initial point is probably most likely going 279 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 9: to be correct when you're thinking about it. 280 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 7: I don't think he's all a famer. He's on that 281 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 7: the rung below. 282 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 9: It's just a really good football player, very physical, tough, intimidating. 283 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 7: I mean I remember working on that. 284 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 9: Draft of the twenty ten draft and gathering information on 285 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 9: Hi from Nebraska. 286 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 7: He was tough with his teammates. 287 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 10: Man. 288 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 9: He uh, they can intimidate not only the opponents but 289 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 9: his teammates. But he was a very physical player, very 290 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 9: tough guy, good football player. You know, it's a shame 291 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 9: that he never experienced a turnaround of the line that 292 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 9: the Lions had, which is really incredible. You know, they've 293 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 9: been the darling really the last three seasons and in 294 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 9: the decades of suffering for the fans. 295 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 7: And he he remember he did play with Stafford. 296 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 9: They did get Stafford, right, and then of course they 297 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 9: trade him, but they got Stafford well. 298 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 2: I also remember the playoff game against the Cowboys and 299 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 2: he was held yes, and. 300 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 3: There was a no call with Jim Schwartz. Yeah, yeah, 301 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 3: it Look, he was there. 302 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 9: For a long time and they just didn't win enough. 303 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 9: But a good football player, but he's not a Hall 304 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 9: of Famer. You know. 305 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 4: I feel like each and every day we're hearing more 306 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 4: and more about Aaron Rodgers. He's at a golf tournament 307 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 4: and he's like and he's he's like a guy who's 308 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 4: asking for his autograph. Like, what what are your expectations 309 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 4: the Pittsburgh Sailers this year? 310 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 9: Adam, Well, they didn't make the playoffs last year. You 311 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 9: wouldn't know it by the way the season closed, but 312 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 9: they did make it. They're one of the wild cards 313 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 9: in the the If you look at the future number, 314 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 9: I mean it's it's gone up a little bit. It's 315 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 9: the over now is really the play at at eight 316 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 9: and a half and they'll probably be some more on 317 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 9: nine or ten wins, it's pretty much, you know, they 318 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 9: never have a losing record. 319 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 7: But and then look, we. 320 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 9: Talked about the trade last week getting Smith and Ramsey 321 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 9: and that that will certainly helped them, no question about it. 322 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 9: But at forty one and a half years old, you 323 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 9: have to question, I know, talking to the Jets last season, 324 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 9: really what Rogers had to play through that season. Look, 325 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 9: did they protect them? Well, no, they didn't run the 326 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 9: ball as well as they would have liked. Or they 327 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 9: fired the offense coordinator, and then they head coach who 328 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 9: fired the offense coordinators fired, then GM was fired. So 329 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 9: it was a total mess last season. But Nita, I 330 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 9: just don't know what he has left. It's pretty remarkable 331 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 9: that he didn't miss a game last season, but he 332 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 9: just didn't look like himself now if physically ready to go, 333 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 9: I know they're they're happy to have him that this 334 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 9: is their big move of the season in terms of 335 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 9: getting someone at quarterback. But this is a one year solution. 336 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 9: It's not like they have Mason Rudolph's the backup. They 337 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 9: kind of know who he is. We've talked about Steve 338 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 9: and I have talked about. 339 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 7: Him for a while. But in the end, Nita to 340 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 7: move this along here. 341 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 9: He's a guy that's very close to the ni of 342 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 9: his career and that's and that's the way he played. 343 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 9: Let's face it, that's the way he played last season. 344 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 9: A guy that's almost at the end, all right. 345 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: You know, winning is a sure way for either a 346 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 2: coach or a general manager to maintain their job. Sure, 347 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 2: losing is usually assured ticket to look for another line 348 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: of work. However, in Chicago, apparently losing is winning for 349 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: Ryan Pohls, the general manager who had two years or 350 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 2: maining on his five year deal, and by the way, 351 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 2: since he took over, the Bears have a record of 352 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 2: fifteen and thirty six, and he gets a five year 353 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 2: extension on his deal. Now lines up with Ben Johnson, 354 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: of course, the new coach who has a contract to 355 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,719 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty nine season. Give us the give us 356 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 2: the mindset of the Bears right now, saying, yeah, we 357 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 2: can't lose this guy, who again, we are fifteen and 358 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 2: thirty six since he took over as our general manager, 359 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 2: even though he had two years ormaining on the contract, 360 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 2: We're not going to take any chances. We're going to 361 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 2: extend it another five years. Get us inside the building, 362 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 2: and everyone listening out there is like, where can I 363 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 2: sign up for a deal? 364 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 9: Like, here's actually why they did it, Steve, Actually, the 365 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 9: real reason why they did is you and this. I 366 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 9: learned this when I had a pretty significant scoop this 367 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 9: a long time ago. But Phil Savage on her Phil Savage, 368 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 9: who announce a consultant for the Jets, and Romo Cornell 369 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 9: is the head coach of the Browns. 370 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 7: I put a scoop out that. 371 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 9: Savage's contract goes way further than Cornell and the agent. 372 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 9: You know, I called the agent, The agent said, talk 373 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 9: to the Browns. He wouldn't answer the question, but two 374 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 9: weeks later he got extension. Romo Cornell did because they 375 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 9: wanted to match it up. It's not really a good 376 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 9: thing if it gets out there that the general manager 377 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 9: has a much longer contract or the head coach. By 378 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 9: the way, in this case, Ben Johnson, who got a 379 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 9: five year deal, has a longer contract than the general manager. 380 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,719 Speaker 9: It just you have to have them they and they 381 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 9: don't have to be friends. But the thing is you 382 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 9: got to have them concurrent. Why do you think the 383 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 9: Buccaneers did this with Chason Layton Todd Bowles. They have 384 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 9: them ending at the same time. Too often it gets 385 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 9: out in the media that, oh, the jam's got his 386 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 9: contract four years later than the head. 387 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 7: Coach or two years. You can't have that. 388 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 9: That's because that then what happens is the guy, the 389 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 9: guy feels like a lame duck. 390 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 7: Whoever's got the shooter out of the stick and and 391 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:00,439 Speaker 7: have that. 392 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 9: It's very uncomfortable, particularly when the information gets out and 393 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 9: let's say it's the head coaches on the short end 394 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 9: of the stick. 395 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 7: He's going to be asked by the media. You don't 396 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 7: want that. That's a big reason why they did this. 397 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 3: Are they on the right track? 398 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 9: It's a great question. Poles was super aggressive this offseason. 399 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 9: I mean he made the trade obviously with the bear 400 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 9: with the Panthers. He got a lot of value for it. 401 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 9: Now you have to remember, under Ryan Paced, the former 402 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 9: general matter, things that had really gone awry. He missed 403 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,199 Speaker 9: badly and Mitch Trubisky, so that set them back and 404 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 9: they didn't have a very good roster. And Pols took 405 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 9: over the football team and he's had to sort of 406 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 9: take this thing and flip it. Now, I'll say this 407 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 9: about Ryan Poles. He had missed on their offensive line, 408 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 9: and he missed with their edge rushers. That was the 409 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 9: word around the league. 410 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 7: So what did he do? 411 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 9: You got three new interior offensive linemen. Joe Tooney who 412 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 9: got handled in the Super Bowl playing left tackle for 413 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 9: the Chiefs because they didn't have a left tackle. He 414 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 9: got traded and he got his contract extended with the Bears. 415 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 9: It's Andrew Dolman coming over from Atlanta. They traded for 416 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 9: Jona Jackson and got bench by the Rams, so they're 417 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 9: rebuilding it. They surprise a lot of people want the 418 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 9: tight end in the first round. It there's talent on 419 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 9: this roster. Are they on the right path? I would 420 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 9: say yes. It's a great question because I think some 421 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 9: of the Bears frants are wondering. But let's see about 422 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 9: Ben Shotson, who I'm a fan of. I don't know him, 423 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 9: but I think he did a phenomenal job with the Lions. 424 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 9: But he's a guy that coaches real hard. He's in 425 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 9: your face. As someone who used to work with him 426 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 9: told me, it's not going to take long to know 427 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 9: if it's going to work with Ben Johtson and his players. 428 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 4: There's two teams that you could get some really good 429 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 4: value with right now to say yes, they're going to 430 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 4: make the playoffs. One, believe it or not, is the 431 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 4: Box even though they finished ten to seven, I. 432 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 7: Think that there is one in the division. 433 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, and they won exactly. I think a lot 434 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 4: of people are really high on the Atlanta Falcons right now. 435 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 4: With Pennix right Pennocks junior. But you can still get 436 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 4: the Tampa Bay Bucks for winning that division at like 437 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 4: minus one fifty minus one I saw yesterday. Yeah, yeah, 438 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 4: I mean some really good value in that, and I 439 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 4: think Baker Mayfield and them are going to make some noise. 440 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 4: But really, the team that I'm really really high on 441 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: and you could get it plus money, is the Denver 442 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 4: Broncos to make the playoffs, let alone possibly win the 443 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 4: AFC West at plus money. Out of those two futures, bets, Adam, 444 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 4: what do you like the most? 445 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 7: Well, see, let me start with Tampa Bay. Let me 446 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 7: explain something. 447 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 9: So this just came out the Tristian Wurf's information with 448 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 9: his he had a setback with his knee surgery, so 449 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 9: he almost certainly will not be ready for the start 450 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 9: of season. Very strong candidate to go miss the first 451 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 9: four games. 452 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 7: To go on pup. They don't have a backup left tackle. 453 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 9: Charlie Hack who remember Andy Hack who is the Chiefs 454 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 9: offensive line coach. His son Charlie is the backup right 455 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 9: tackle left tackle. He's gonna have to play left tackle. 456 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 9: That's a major problem for a blocking He's the blindside protector. 457 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 9: Wors is for a right handed quarterback. That does worry 458 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 9: me a little bit. It's hard to find left tackles 459 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 9: that Anita kind of evens things up a little bit. 460 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 9: Now with Denver. The problem that Denver has is sure 461 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 9: they were Steves picked last year, and there's a great, 462 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 9: great thing. They made the playoffs as a wildcard, the 463 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 9: last wildcard of ten to seven. But the Chargers are 464 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 9: looking good. They were eleven and six. We could say 465 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 9: what we want about the Chiefs until somebody knocks them 466 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 9: off in that division. They're still the kings of that 467 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 9: division and at the very least, if not one of 468 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 9: the best teams they havec Now, what I would tell 469 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 9: you we need is in terms of making the making 470 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 9: the playoff prop. I think it's a pretty good one 471 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 9: right now. If all three of us had to turn in, 472 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 9: if we had to turn them on July twelfth, who 473 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 9: are a playoff teams? I got Buffalo, Baltimore, Houston, Kansas City, 474 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 9: the Chargers, reluctantly Pittsburgh just because there's that's guys. Someone's 475 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 9: got to be a seventh, probably Denver. It's just not 476 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 9: for the AFC is not very strong anymore. 477 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 2: No, well, I mean again, health you know the Bengals 478 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 2: are a big question mark because I mean, you gotta 479 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 2: gotta you gotta have some defense. By the way, as 480 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: we go here, you're not gonna believe this. Apparently I 481 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 2: been alerted by my TV station. They want me to 482 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 2: go out Thursday to the uh Bolt facility. 483 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,479 Speaker 7: Home of the Chargers and been there last summer. 484 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 2: In else of course, where my home was working for 485 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 2: the Raiders way back in the day. 486 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 3: That's where we were based. 487 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 7: Is that right. I didn't know that. 488 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 3: Yeah it was. 489 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 2: It was a converted else Junior High school.

All right, 792 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 2: So I gave Anita plenty of time to think about 793 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 2: whether or not the Raiders are a good long shot 794 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:47,760 Speaker 2: play to get into the playoffs. I mean, honestly, since 795 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 2: going to their last Super Bowl, the humiliating loss they 796 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 2: suffered after the two thousand and two season to the 797 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Bucketeers. 798 00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 3: It has been rough rough for the Raiders. 799 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 2: They haven't had many winning seasons, very few playoff appearances, 800 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 2: haven't won a playoff game since. 801 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 3: So is that there are a chance with all the moves. 802 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 2: They have made anita that this is the year the 803 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 2: Raiders finally break through and gets things right. 804 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 4: Listen, I'm cheering for them to do so, right, Like 805 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 4: you know, I think the whole scenario is very interesting. 806 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 4: With Pete Carroll what is he seventy? 807 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 2: What seventy seventy something, Yeah, he's a young seventy. 808 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 4: Though, okay, and Gino Smith who. 809 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 3: Is seventy also, by the way, don't let the. 810 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 4: Door hit you on the behind on your way out 811 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 4: of New York and then find success of course in Seattle, 812 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 4: and then now hopefully with Pete Carroll by the way, exactly, 813 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 4: so now these two reunite. You know you mentioned it right. 814 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:55,240 Speaker 4: They add Ashton Genty to the mix on the defensive 815 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,399 Speaker 4: side of the ball. Max Crosby, you know, he missed 816 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,720 Speaker 4: some time because of injuries. He had and half sacks 817 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 4: in twelve games. Wilkins as well. Here's what I don't like. 818 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:11,359 Speaker 4: The Raiders have the least amount the fewest of any 819 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 4: team in the NFL in regard to rest advantage. In fact, 820 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 4: they have the most rest disadvantage in the NFL this season, 821 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:26,919 Speaker 4: and that is a really important nugget when you're handicapping 822 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,760 Speaker 4: futures bets. And not only do they have the least 823 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 4: amount of rest advantage of all thirty two teams in 824 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 4: the NFL, they play the Patriots, Washington, and the Eagles 825 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 4: all on the East coast one o'clock game. Steve, Yeah, 826 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 4: So the NFL said, who up behind to the Raiders 827 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 4: in regard to their schedule. They have arguably in the 828 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 4: history of the NFL one of the worst schedules ever 829 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 4: in the history of the NFL this season. 830 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 3: How is that possible? 831 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 2: I mean, usually you would have that if you win 832 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 2: your division, because remember the schedules are all based on 833 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 2: where you finished the year before, whether you're at the 834 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 2: top of the division the bottom of the division. I 835 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 2: don't know why the Raiders get screwed up so bad. 836 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 2: By the way, Pete Carroll will turn seventy four in September. 837 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 3: Seventy four in September, So there you go. 838 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 4: I'll tell you the one bet that I do like 839 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 4: Brock Bauers, boy, that. 840 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 3: DU's a Hall of Famer. He'll be in the Hall 841 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:22,399 Speaker 3: of Fame. 842 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 4: He's been kissed by God. 843 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: You know. 844 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 4: Now you've got an even better quarterback. I'd go over 845 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 4: receiving Europs for him the season. That would probably be 846 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 4: the only bet that I would make for the Raiders. 847 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 3: All right, what will you do with Genti? 848 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously, when you draft a running back that 849 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 2: high in the draft and based on the insane numbers 850 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 2: he put up in college, could he be an immediate 851 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: superstar running back in the NFL? 852 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 4: I think so. I think maybe you sprinkle on offensive 853 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 4: rookie of the year. 854 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, Oh I I don't know. I'm sensing 855 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 3: a little love for the Raiders right now. We'll see 856 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: about that.

You know, you trader. You know 988 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 4: I'd say other words, but this is a family show. 989 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 4: I can't share it, so I just And also I'll 990 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 4: go one step further, Steve, I find this in our 991 00:47:54,600 --> 00:48:01,319 Speaker 4: industry where men are different. Men aren't as caddie, men 992 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 4: are not as jealous, Men are more supportive of one 993 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:10,279 Speaker 4: another in each other's careers than women. Where and my 994 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 4: mom used to use this phrase. I'm not sure if 995 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,360 Speaker 4: you've ever heard of it, but it's called crabs in 996 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:14,840 Speaker 4: a bucket. 997 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 3: I don't know that, but I do now so and again. 998 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,399 Speaker 4: Being born and raised in Miami, you know, And if 999 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 4: anybody out there, if you're a fisherman and a fisher woman, 1000 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 4: and you understand what I'm talking about, you go out there, 1001 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 4: you get a bunch of crabs, what do you do? 1002 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 4: You throw crabs in a bucket. You know why you 1003 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 4: don't cover the bucket, Steve, because all the crabs in 1004 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 4: the bottom of the bucket are pulling the crabs down 1005 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 4: that are trying to escape. So you have to cover 1006 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 4: your bucket because you know they're never going to get 1007 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 4: out because they're all pulling each other down. So crabs 1008 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 4: in a bucket. That's what the WNBA is when it 1009 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 4: comes to Caitlin Clark, and it drives me bunkers. 1010 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,280 Speaker 3: Here's the thing that's so frustration. 1011 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 4: They should be supporting her, they should be elevating her, 1012 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 4: because you know what happens as her success grows, the 1013 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 4: league success grows. 1014 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 3: Where is the league itself? 1015 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 2: This is the thing it gets me and need Okay, 1016 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 2: so these these women players you know that you know 1017 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 2: obviously are looking praying for the kind of attention that 1018 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark gets. 1019 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 3: I understand that part. 1020 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:22,320 Speaker 2: But why it hasn't the league stepped in and say 1021 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 2: enough's enough, enough's enough, whether they're doing it publicly or privately, 1022 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:28,839 Speaker 2: stop it. 1023 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 3: She is the golden goose for all of us. Stop it. 1024 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 3: And they haven't done that. 1025 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 4: And that's the one million dollar question. And why are 1026 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 4: they too scared because the majority of the WNBA is 1027 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 4: not on that side of the coin? 1028 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 6: Is that? 1029 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:52,719 Speaker 4: Why is it? Optics? What is it? Why hasn't the 1030 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 4: commissioner of the WNBA Why hasn't And that's really that's 1031 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 4: the I don't have the answer, and and it's and 1032 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,280 Speaker 4: it's and it is to me the number one question, 1033 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 4: because if you and I are sitting here understanding what 1034 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 4: her value and what her worth is to the w 1035 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 4: n b A, and how she can even elevate just 1036 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:17,280 Speaker 4: to me, like like she has already elevated this league 1037 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 4: to this extent. Imagine if this was a league of 1038 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 4: a commissioner and players who actually supported her and and 1039 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 4: and and appreciated what she brought to this game, where 1040 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 4: they would be right now. So to me, it's it's 1041 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 4: it's mind boggling. It's mind boggling to me, Steve, I 1042 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 4: don't understand it. 1043 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 2: I I just you remember when Tiger Woods broke through, 1044 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: we had the unfortunate comments made by Fuzzy Fuzzy Zeller 1045 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 2: at the Masters, right, and uh, but it was an 1046 00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 2: eye opener, I mean because obviously he was getting all 1047 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 2: this attention and he was dominating in a very early. 1048 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 3: Stage of his career. 1049 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 2: But as soon as the purses went up for all 1050 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 2: the tournaments that he was appearing in, any noise against 1051 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 2: Tiger evaporated gone. Now all of a sudden, everyone's like, heck, 1052 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 2: I'm getting more money finishing second to him than I 1053 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:19,279 Speaker 2: would have made winning the tournament before he showed up. 1054 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,719 Speaker 2: And so once they realized that, wow, this is all 1055 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,919 Speaker 2: good for all of us, that we have this incredible, 1056 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 2: once in a lifetime superstar Tiger Woods in our sport. 1057 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 3: From that point on, Tiger got nothing but praise, nothing 1058 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 3: but praise. 1059 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 5: I'm just I'm gonna. 1060 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 2: I just thought, in year two the WNBA, maybe I 1061 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 2: understand a year ago it was all new and everything else, 1062 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,839 Speaker 2: but it's worse this year than it was last year. 1063 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 4: And I'm just gonna throw this out. And again, I've 1064 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:51,880 Speaker 4: never met Caitlin Clark. I don't know Caitlin Clark, but 1065 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,399 Speaker 4: like just optics alone, seems like a pretty cool girl, right, 1066 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 4: really good family, down to earth, doesn't get into trouble, 1067 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 4: really doesn't talk a lot of smack unless unless instigated 1068 00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 4: right and then and then she'll she'll you know, talk 1069 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:13,839 Speaker 4: back like she doesn't seem like like somebody that you 1070 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 4: don't want to root for. 1071 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:16,759 Speaker 3: What she is a trash talker, you know. 1072 00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 2: Larry Bird was the all time trash talker, according to 1073 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 2: just about every player in the league they ever played 1074 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 2: against him. 1075 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,359 Speaker 3: Like, no guy talk more trash.

I know that, 1139 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 3: Mark that I know. 1140 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 10: I know I would say that, but you know what, 1141 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 10: I'm like many that just lose money. Whenever I got here. 1142 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 2: Yes, I want to get right to the Cooper Flag situation. 1143 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 2: So they just finished up a matchup against the Spurs. 1144 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 2: Cooper Flag, who couldn't make any shots in his summer 1145 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 2: League debut, did much better today, put up thirty one 1146 00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 2: points ten to twenty one from the made three threes, 1147 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,640 Speaker 2: only had one assist, only had four rebounds, and he 1148 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 2: had no steals. 1149 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 3: So I'm trying to figure this out. 1150 00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:13,400 Speaker 2: His coach, Jason Kidd, was probably the best player, or 1151 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 2: one of the few great players in NBA history that 1152 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,360 Speaker 2: really never had a shot like he never was a 1153 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 2: good shooter at any point of his career, Jason Kidd, 1154 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 2: but he did everything else at the Hyatts level. 1155 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 3: What is the game plan for Cooper Flag? 1156 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 2: I heard they're even tinkering with the idea of playing 1157 00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:32,680 Speaker 2: him at the point. How are the Mavericks going to 1158 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:33,720 Speaker 2: use Cooper Flag. 1159 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 6: I think that. 1160 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 10: They're going to treat it like a buffet because one, 1161 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 10: he has a lot of different skills, but two, their 1162 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 10: rosters very fluid. I mean, it's not like traditional teams 1163 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 10: that have a number one pick where they're got awful 1164 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:48,800 Speaker 10: and they need their draft prospect to just carry them. 1165 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,760 Speaker 10: This team has Kyrie Orvan Anthony Davis and Quay Thompson, 1166 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 10: but it's a lot of Fluidit you on when Kyrie 1167 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:56,760 Speaker 10: is going to come back because of acl injury. AD's 1168 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 10: injury history is what it is, So I think in 1169 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 10: the short term, I don't think that he's going to 1170 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,920 Speaker 10: have a lot of ball handling duties because they got 1171 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,399 Speaker 10: D'Angel Russell there in the off season. So I think 1172 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:10,719 Speaker 10: it's a lot of it's going to be about defending 1173 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 10: the perimeter's best player be a guy inside that can 1174 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 10: be also a point forward that moves on and off 1175 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 10: the ball. And so what I saw in summer League, yeah, 1176 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 10: the shots weren't there. He could be higher statistically in 1177 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:29,120 Speaker 10: other categories, but he had that presence where he is 1178 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,400 Speaker 10: good at every single thing, and as a result of that, 1179 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 10: I think he'll be adaptable to different roles. 1180 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 4: Let's let's talk about what's going on with Lebron James 1181 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:41,360 Speaker 4: in the Lakers, right and Luca, because there's there's so 1182 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 4: much talk here in regard to, you know, the organization 1183 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 4: moving forward, it's all about Luca. That's their centerpiece, not 1184 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 4: Lebron James. I'm sure that's going to be a very 1185 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 4: difficult pill to swallow for him because it's not a 1186 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 4: pill that he's ever had to swallow in his entire life. Right, 1187 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 4: So what what what can you share with us in 1188 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 4: regard to what the lake you think we're going to 1189 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 4: look like coming into the season. 1190 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean there's a lot of things that's going 1191 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 10: to happen between now and the regular season. But I 1192 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 10: think ultimately what's going to end is that Lebron James 1193 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 10: will still be in the Lakers uniform. Here's why. I 1194 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 10: don't think that the Lakers or Lebron view their partnership 1195 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 10: through any rose colored glasses, and there's frustration on both sides, 1196 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 10: Lebron with the Lakers preparing more for the future than 1197 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 10: for his potential final season. I think for the Lakers thinking, 1198 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 10: you know what, like you're getting fifty six million dollars 1199 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 10: and you're still having a chance to play with really 1200 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 10: good players. I Luka dacicch this is the best case scenario. 1201 00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 10: But I think what's going to happen is the Lakers 1202 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 10: are going to finally see that there's not really much 1203 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 10: of a trademarket form. It's not their interests to do 1204 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,280 Speaker 10: it because they won't get a lot of assets in return. 1205 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,200 Speaker 10: And I think in Lebron's case, he's going to see, 1206 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 10: you know what, whatever misgivings he's has about the Lakers' 1207 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:57,760 Speaker 10: front office, the question marks about the roster, it's a 1208 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 10: lot better than any alternative because if he it's traded, 1209 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:04,440 Speaker 10: that seems either gutted or they're not really good to 1210 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 10: begin with. The Lakers, they're not championship favorites, but they 1211 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 10: have Luka Dacs that have some rotation players. They could 1212 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 10: be at least a decent playoff too. 1213 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 2: All Right, I was kicking this around last week, and again, 1214 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 2: you know me, Mark, I say things that are outrageous, 1215 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 2: but I'm going to throw it out anyway. So talking 1216 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 2: about a potential Lebron trade, the dynamic in the East 1217 00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,720 Speaker 2: is so different now because of the Celtics without Tatum. 1218 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 2: Halliburton is out for the Pacers and you, it's sort 1219 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 2: of looking like a Nicks Cavaliers showdown on who is 1220 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:39,200 Speaker 2: going to win the East next year. So you're the 1221 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 2: New York you get you the New York Knicks, you 1222 00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:43,600 Speaker 2: got Towns and annob and you got Brunson. 1223 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 3: All Right, you make a trade to get Lebron. 1224 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 2: You're going to give up in the deal, Josh Hart, 1225 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 2: who is a piece that obviously the Lakers would love 1226 00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:54,360 Speaker 2: to have, and he's under contract for a couple of years. 1227 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 2: And then you give up a couple of expiring contracts 1228 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 2: in Bridges and Mitchell Robinson. So if you add up 1229 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 2: their three salaries for the upcoming season. It's a wash 1230 01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 2: for what Lebron is making this year, So the Lakers 1231 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 2: get at least something, because again, Lebron's all walk away 1232 01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 2: free agent at the end of the year. And if 1233 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,439 Speaker 2: you're not expecting to win a championship, you get guy 1234 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,720 Speaker 2: like Josh Hart, who's a valuable piece. I'm sure the 1235 01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 2: Lakers would agree with that. And then you get expiring 1236 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:22,680 Speaker 2: contexts for Bridges and Robinson. And then if you're the Knicks, 1237 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:25,240 Speaker 2: I mean again, if you're a Knicks man, you haven't 1238 01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 2: won a championship since nineteen seventy three. 1239 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,400 Speaker 3: If the tradeoff is look, this is going to be 1240 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 3: a one year deal with Lebron. 1241 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:33,080 Speaker 2: We may suck for the next ten years, but we 1242 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 2: could win a championship with Towns and an anob Brunson 1243 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,720 Speaker 2: and Lebron. I might roll the dice on that. I 1244 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:43,880 Speaker 2: know they won't, but it just seems like the idea 1245 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 2: of him going to the East, either for the Cavaliers 1246 01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:48,760 Speaker 2: or the Knicks, where he would have a much better 1247 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 2: opportunity at least getting to the NBA Finals than he 1248 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 2: plays with the Lakers in the West. I mean, I 1249 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 2: don't know how serious he is about the talk that 1250 01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 2: he really wants to make another run for a championship 1251 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 2: as opposed to just hang on to all his business 1252 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:04,320 Speaker 2: dealings in LA. But to me, that's a deal that 1253 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 2: would work for both teams. 1254 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it is a fair deal, definitely if 1255 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 10: the Knicks would be comfortable with that. If I'm the Lakers, 1256 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 10: I don't think they would pull the trigger. Yes, they 1257 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 10: like Josh Hart, He's a great, you know, role player. 1258 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 10: They have history with him. Michale Bridges is a great defender. 1259 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,160 Speaker 10: Same thing with Ojihon and Obi. I just don't think 1260 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 10: that that's enough in their eyes for Lebron James. Even 1261 01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:32,400 Speaker 10: though he's late in his career, he's still playing at 1262 01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 10: all star caliber level and number two. I think they're 1263 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 10: looking at through the prism of how this works in 1264 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 10: relation to the rest of the roster. They have Luca 1265 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,840 Speaker 10: Dacis on their team, they DeAndre, and they have a 1266 01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 10: lot of question marks, so they also have a lot 1267 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 10: of right for potential here, and so I think the 1268 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 10: Lakers are just concluding, you know what, we're they're annoyed 1269 01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:57,960 Speaker 10: at times with how Lebron wants to play GM and 1270 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 10: pressure them to make moves, but they've been happy with 1271 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,919 Speaker 10: how he's played on the court and has felt he's 1272 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,800 Speaker 10: very adaptable with his role with that, And so I 1273 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:08,480 Speaker 10: think they're just going to roll the dice and think, 1274 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,800 Speaker 10: you know what, for whatever complaints you have about us, 1275 01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 10: you know with our roster, we know that you'll still 1276 01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:16,800 Speaker 10: bring it to work every single night and you're still 1277 01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 10: one of the best in the NBA. So end of 1278 01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 10: that chapter. But yeah, if I'm the Knicks, I'm going 1279 01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 10: all in because it's the Knicks number two. They have 1280 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:30,720 Speaker 10: Mike Brown, that's a history that they have relationships. And 1281 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:34,240 Speaker 10: to your point, the Eastern Conference is depleted because of 1282 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 10: the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers, most notably having a 1283 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:41,960 Speaker 10: lot of injuries. And Milwaukee try to be if you 1284 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 10: know what they do with Miles Turners enough with the 1285 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 10: Anasoons to theakupo to be a player. But again, I 1286 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 10: think it takes two to tango, and I think ultimately 1287 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,280 Speaker 10: the Lakers will decide no thanks to any of these deals. 1288 01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:55,800 Speaker 4: So looking at the West, I mean, obviously again okay, 1289 01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 4: see looking to run it back and win another championship 1290 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 4: back to back. Got to like Houston's done right, bringing 1291 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 4: in KD and and I actually like the moves that 1292 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 4: that Denver has made as well. So so in the West. 1293 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 4: If there was a team there that you feel would 1294 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 4: unseat okc Uh, who would it be. 1295 01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 10: I think would be the Rockets, not just because Kevin 1296 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:22,400 Speaker 10: Durant and his efficiency when he's playing. It's what they 1297 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:25,439 Speaker 10: didn't give up in the deal. I'm and Thompson it's 1298 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:28,360 Speaker 10: still there. One of the emerging young wing players in 1299 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 10: the NBA. One of the best defenders in the league, 1300 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 10: Al Brinston Goon.

I 1370 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,479 Speaker 11: don't think that is a winning team. And he's gonna 1371 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 11: go to another team and lose again? No, no, no, no, 1372 01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 11: at least if he goes to the Cavs and loses, 1373 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:40,560 Speaker 11: he went back. 1374 01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:41,480 Speaker 3: We know this. 1375 01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:45,280 Speaker 2: He's never playing another season for the Lakers. 1376 01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 5: With you, I don't agree. 1377 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:48,960 Speaker 2: If he plays one year with the Lakers, that's it. 1378 01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:52,200 Speaker 2: He will walk away.
